I thought I was going to have a ton of time to post toDay, but as it turns out, I'll be able to get online just before DL and a little bit throughout the Day.

I'm pretty sure the wolves didn't think Fea was the Seer. There's really nothing to support that. She also doesn't seem like a no-trail kill, mostly because there are others who would have left less of a trail, although she'd be more of a no-trail than a Seer kill. Maybe they thought she was too dangerous? But in that case, she's just being dangerous in the Dead Thread instead, which, while better for the wolves, isn't, I think, enough of a reason to spend the Night-kill on a person.

Oh, not even her seeming certainty that Shasta wasn't the seer or her reluctance to believe Nog?

I am feeling bad about Boro so I'm now planning to reread his posts quickly and see if I find anything worth commenting on...

Boro

DAY 1
Phantom assigned a role to everybody at the beginning of day 1 calling Boro a cobbler. Boro made a sports-related joke in return. Nog pinged on his radar after like one or two posts because he was the first to start talking serious stuff. According to Boro, he was trying to steer and spin what he wanted to spin and looked bleaker than the situation merited.
He was feeling good about Lommy (who had called him a cobbler):
Quote:
--- Even if I think she had a nice working bororadar. It just needed updating, like a 2.0 version, or Bororadar Premium Edition.
He chastised Glirdan and Legate about exaggerating his early suspicion of Nog, and voted for Legate. This looks reasonable enough, unlike most other things he said or did on day 1.

DAY 2
He explains his Legate vote a bit further, then says that in a game like this it's important to keep the voting close. This rings false to me. Firstly, it makes multiple lynches easier. Secondly, if someone appears much more suspicious than the others, the village usually wants her dead. This doesn't happen if we don't bandwagon. Thirdly, the votes don't have to be even in order for us to learn what the DL voters think.
He had Greenie, Nerwen, sally, me (to be honest I'm quite upset about my threat level being considered that of a koala ) and Fea listed as Koalas. Nog and Glirdan looked the worst to him, and he considered voting for one of them or the phantom. He's convinced at least one of them is evil, probably more (Glirdy at least a cobbler, Nog looking desperate). He disapproved of Greenie's plan to vote for Nessa just because she might be an easy bandwagon target if people start having doubts about lynching one of the aforementioned three.
He then voted for Nog, saying it's no good to insinuate players are cheating and he's confident about his vote.
After Nog's revelation, he said there's no way to prove if he's telling the truth. He didn't make up his mind about him at all. He then discussed why Nog said the phantom was a cobbler - if he was a wolf, it would've made more sense to offer the name of a fellow if he wanted us to believe him, but saying someone is a cobbler isn't the best way to save oneself. When I first read this I thought it was Boro's explanation for believing Nog's claim (which I found extremely fishy) but now that it isn't 4 am anymore, I see it wasn't the case and it actually makes sense. Hmm okay then there's his next post where his opinion changes (after phantom corrected him about the rules) so I don't know what he meant after all...

I think Boro could go either way. Especially some of that Lommy stuff and the thing about keeping the votes even. Suspecting Noggins doesn't tell us much about Boro because Nog was probably a cobbler and therefore they wouldn't have known of each other even if both are baddies.

I have been writing this on and off and haven't really read anything after my last post. Will be back later.
