Seeing how desperate Fea is today, I'm even more convinced of her guilt. There is no astonishment like: "Jay was the seer?? Then why the §$%& did he think I was guilty all the time?". Instead, Fea is on the defense from her first post on.

Aganzir's analysis is tricksy. If she and Fea are in cahoots, she decided to let Fea go down and save herself.

I'm rather baffled that you point this out only in your next post and not in the analysis itself. To me, it's the most conspicuous feature of tgwbs's posting. This is actually the way I would do it if I was bad: analyse everything truthfully and then not play down or defend yourself against the things said about oneself, but simply omit it as far as possible and hope everybody else overlooks it or is too lazy.



I came, I saw Boro's analysis, I did not believe my eyes.

What did you expect him to do after a lucky Night 1 dream of a critic or maybe only a cobbler? Walk around and exclaim what you found, or pursue evil in a concealed way? You either let yourself be blinded by tgwbs's headache-talk, or your analysis is malevolent.

Edit: hmm... now you relativise it.

Because I realised it only after I saw your post. Earlier I had just thought, 'ok, he suspects us both,' but I had paid no attention to the fact that he seemed to suspect us equally until you said it aloud.

Not to be arrogant Mac, but I know how to use seer lingo, it is never the seer's intent to leave confusing statements. Now that happens, but seers don't purposefully set out to confuse.

Did I say tgwbs was jumping out everywhere shouting wolf! wolf! wolf! No, but if he did he would lead clues to the wolf, not make statements that he doesn't know who any are.

Of course there's no astonishment, sweetheart. Even if I felt it, do you really think I'd type it? Who would believe me if I showed up the day after the seer had been killed, the very seer who'd been regularly trying to get me lynched, and said sweetly, batting my eyelashes, "Oh my, oh dear dear dear, who could have done such a thing?" Nobody would believe me, they'd assume I was a lying devious little thing. So why pretend like he didn't suspect me? Why play act like I don't know the village will see me as its greatest threat now, whether or not I am? It would be very Blagojovich of me to come in and say "But I'm so totally innocent! I can't wait to prove to you how innocent I am!" when all the apparent evidence, whether it's circumstantial or not, points to my phonelines having been tapped. You follow? Of course I'm innocent, but it's a wasted breath for me to bother trying to profess it when the 'evidence' is so solidly against me.

It is an ordo's duty to help the village catch a wolf. I understand that the village is all but obligated to lynch me today, just in case. I also understand that I'd go out much more happily if I knew that the entire day wasn't dedicated solely to saying, "But of course she's guilty," while letting the bad guys off the hook.

If she's a 'wolf,' she found a fantastic human shield. Who's going to blame her for turning on me now? Either that or she's an ordo and is just seriously misguided.

Nor did I. While I am happy to profess that the overwhelming evidence against me is merely inconvenient assumptions which are unfortunately wrong, I find it hard to believe that Boro would support me.

I find it hard to believe that anybody would support me.

If I was playing werewolf with myself, I'd certainly lynch me based on the events of the past Night.

He also never said he dreamed of a critic at all. He just said he didn't trust me. That's nothing new to me. Nobody trusts me. You yourself, Boro, said that I'm the type of person who'd stab you in the back after talking pretty.

You can try to drag me down with you in your S.S. Imploder, Walt, it aint gonna work. The walking through the dark commoners might fall for it, but your sorceress charms won't work on the rest.

Oh come off it, buddy, you totally implicated yourself. Now I'm just teasing.

You set yourself up for it.

Sorry for not having the benefit of prior knowledge to tgwbs' identity and being able to look through his posts to create a tidy and clear analysis.

So... (still catching up) phantom is here just for fun now? And TGWBW is dead? *Groans* He was cracking me up with those incomplete phrases!

Sorry for not being as lovable and cuddly as you. I see TGWBS's suspicions of me and think, "Silly Jay's always suspecting me. Nothing'll come of it." Except today I see he was the seer and think, "Oh $---, they're going to see that and kill me for sure." And then I try to figure out the best course of action, which I decide is: not playing it off as me being in total shock, because really, I'm brilliant. Not much shocks me, because I envision scenarios before they happen. I seriously doubt even you, doll, could pull one over on me. So starting now and pretending like I'm a clueless little girl who can't figure out why I'm in trouble? When everybody already knows that if I wanted to, I could massacre them all? It's not at all in character.

Versus you... now you're usually not so forgiving to me as oh, say... I am. So why the switch now?

Unless you're trying to save me.

If you can't, I say you... take advantage. If you follow.

I checked in around noon to see the kill but just now am able to post.


Wooooooooooow. Wild man be deaded.


Okay, I'm going to pull up a vote post for you lovely people and look at tgwbs' posts myself a bit, though it seems it's being done to death (no pun intended) so I may just look his posts over and see what there is to see.


Back shortly, I hope.

Fea:

As to why I thought Agan was the seer, it was a little comment from the first page actually: "Don't worry Gwath, thus far phantom is the only one who assumes he was dreamt of."

It just stuck in my head.

To deny Fea was tgwbs dream and there isn't something sneaky about her is suicide. There will be a lot of echoing today.

It's clear cut and dry, either it happened on Night 1 or Night 2, and Night 1 he didn't dream of a critic.
