I'm not 100% certain Boro is the seer, but given what little else we know for sure, I think it's worthwhile to go with.

And I actually don't believe that he dreamt of her. But she's guilty-enough looking and it signals Boro a vote of confidence.

Well, let's just hope that it outweighs the minuses. Because the minuses of giving him a vote of confidence are, unfortunately, almost clearer than the pluses: our vote of confidence shows the WWs plain as day that we think he's the Seer - so the village can see we trust him, but what good will it do if he dies next Night. Since he has not revealed himself yet, maybe he would have hoped to stay hidden.
I'd sorta hope that someone else might vote Lhuna before our vote is revealed, because then it won't be all on Boro.
(But anyways, see, this is what I think we should have debated during the Day and not after half of people had to cast their votes. This by the way we should keep in mind on future Days as this thread will become more and more populated.)

...but it's true that now that people like Lottie are doubting Boro, a vote of confidence may be appropriate.

But all this with the assumption that we are right and he's not a Wolf.

Then again, if we vote for Lhuna (whether she gets lynched or not) and the wolves know she's not one of them, they might actually not believe that he's the seer, but only that we trust him, which alone isn't necessarily reason to kill him.

If we are wrong about Boro, we will find out soon enough. And the real seer is still out there, too.

Unless they think we think he thinks...

But yeah, good point. I guess we'll see. I mean, it isn't like we can micromanage everything in this game. We can only decide what to do with the time... yadda yadda, you know how it goes.

I see I have chosen a poor day to be busy with RL. So many developments! I have not even seen the GT yet...

Lol! Nog, you did it!!!

Also, when I came home, Lommy said: "I don't of course know what the QT looks like and what's being discussed there, but regardless of everything let me just say that if the vote toDay turns out to be for Brinniel, the Living Thread would probably go crazy."
