Right, I have a suggestion but I'm not sure whether it would be better implemented toDay or tomorrow.

What if the Seer were to reveal themselves? They obviously do not know who the final Cat is or they would have done so already, but presumably they have a list of innocents. As of this moment we have 9 unknowns as we know Diamond is the Taker. If the Seer revealed themselves we'd have 8 unknowns and hopefully even fewer depending on how many innocents they have dreamt of. The Protector would of course protect the Seer giving them another dream and the Taker could be voted for during the Day so she could take down one of the remaining unknowns.

The flaw in this plan is that the Seer may not have a list of innocents, or at least not enough of a list to make this worthwhile, as those they dreamt of may have been killed already. If that is the case then this idea should be ignored entirely. But, the Seer has had 3 dreams correct? If all three have been of innocents and those innocents are still alive that would take the number of unknowns down to 5. If Diamond took down one and the Seer dreamt of another toNight the number would be down to 3 tomorrow, leaving a good innocent majority still. Now as far as I recall the Protector is able to protect one person two Nights running, which means the Seer could get two dreams in at best before being killed, providing the remaining Cat doesn't figure out who the Protector is, making it two unknowns.

Now, it may be that the next person the Seer dreams of is the wolf in which case most of this plan is null and void.

So, Seer, do you feel this is a good idea? And that depends on how many still alive innocents you've dreamt of as well as personal opinion. If you don't DO NOT reveal yourself. You need to be kept safe.

Thing is that this idea might be better implemented tomorrow when the Seer has had more time to dream. But if we wait the Seer might be killed toNight as the Protector won't know who to protect and indeed the Protector might be killed and the Seer would be in more danger if they revealed themselves. Also, if the Seer can provide a list of known innocents we won't be in danger of lynching one toDay.

What think you?
