The Robber Bridegroom might well try it, but it is very doubtful that it would be intelligent for a member of the evil foursome to come out at that time. It's downright suicidal.

The situation was this: Mira had revealed as the Seer and denounced Agan and Fea. Then Fea counter-revealed and accused you, tp, of being the Robber Bridegroom.

So your reveal supported her claim. Now, it does have a somewhat jokey, ambiguous tone to it... so yes, you could have been doing what you say... or you could have been laying ground for a retraction. Anyway, if you're innocent, you knew she was lying, so it was a dangerous stunt to pull in those circumstances– not just for you, but for the village.

To be fair, if you're the Robber Bridegroom, there's the unresolved question of how you knew which "Seer" was false (and thus the one to support)... I don't know– it may be you were more on the ball than I was, and picked Fea's slip immediately. Or it may be that the RB and wolves have found some way to identify each other– in fact Fea basically said this yesterDay.

On the other hand, I'm not sure what to make of Fea's parting words. They do read a bit like, "See, everyone! He IS the RB! Really!"

Bringing me to the other point. No, wouldn't have made sense for a third wolf to reveal as a wolf– but you didn't. And there's a perfectly good reason for a wolf to reveal as a cobbler. You said it yourself:

So... I don't know what you are, phantom, but here are the odds I'm offering toDay:

Robber Bridegroom (2-1)
Wolf (2-1)
Innocent (50-1)


Finally, what's this mean–?

Huh? To the best of my knowledge, there are two ordos (or apparent ordos) left in this village– unless Red Cap has been turned, which isn't public knowledge...

EDIT: X'd since my last post.
