Oh please tell me you're kidding! Three potential Seers? And here I thought this was going to be a simple game.

So, we have three sets of options:

1) Holby is the Seer making CoD a wolf and the rest unknowns.

2) CoD is the Seer making Gil and, presumably Holby, a wolf and Mith and myself innocents.

3) Gil is the Seer making myself and CoD wolves and Mith and Holby innocents.

YesterDay I was convinced of Holby's Seership, but why would the wolves not kill her in the Night? I know there are all kinds of theories about setting people up and bluffing but a Seer is such a danger to the wolves. Whatever the possible benefits of leaving one alive are surely the negatives must outweigh that? Which is why I now have misgivings over Holby's claim.

Gil, well, to be honest his revelation looked like retaliation. It's something we've seen from him before. He's accused so he accuses right back, and since he has me down as a wolf I'm hardly inclined to believe him. I suppose it is possible that he did dream of CoD and maybe either Mith or Holby, but just had to guess at the roles of the ones he didn't dream of. I'll have a look back over his posts just in case but I think he's just following the crowd here.

As to CoD, I am always wary of someone who reveals after someone else has already done so, and to me the choice is between him and Holby (I can't really see Gil being away so much and forgetting the game if he was something important, especially after his performance as a Gifted not long ago). This back and forth between those two might show something valuable, so I'll have a look at that while I'm checking out Gil's history as well.
