Ah, I'm sorry. I misread your post, Kuru.

You meant this part:

Yes, on second thought I have to say that my first thoughts got a little mixed up. I was just doubtful of your "The upshot of this is I’m not sure how much we can read into the people who were going after him." What I wanted to say is, that, since Form is now proven innocent all the reasons given for his lynching yesterday are wrong. If a wolf was among the voters, s/he knew they were wrong. That is what I meant with intentional or unintentional. Of course, the same holds for the Glirdan-voters. It has nothing to do with Form's seerness but with his being innocent. I'm sorry.

Oddly, I understand what Mac is saying. If a wolf was among the voters for Form, they would have had to come up with fake reasoning or no reasoning at all. However, how can we tell the difference between someone who is deliberately wrong, and someone who was accidentally wrong? Glirdan was wrong, but accidentally so. It is also unlikely that more than one wolf was in the Form bandwagon. I'm curious as to how Mac would suggest we pursue this idea beyond the norm. (In other words, what your point in saying what we already knew?)
