Eexactly. I was thinking just the same. Okay, but let me say it aloud when it's been said already. I would have said more, but of course one cannot say it now, because if something happened later it might be influenced by that and what... okay, forget it. What I want to say now: in my opinion, sometimes it looks like Mr. Mac is a Cobbler, but then, it may be that he is not and I cannot really say one or the other. In either case, even if it came to that, I suggest we leave any lynching him or such only for very late, as much late as possible, or not at all - because he (or now we can speak in any Cobbler in general) still counts as an Ordo, and unless he knows more than we do, he should not be that great threat until really very late. The fact is just that we have one Cobbler here, and should count on it when voting. Thus, voting with as much care as we can.

But at least for a few days, I think... Mac will likely be targeted and possibly killed. I think we can guess about Cobblers everywhere, but a given innocent is a given innocent, he narrows our choices on who the Wolves might be.

ToMorrow, two days will have passed since his switch, and with everything that will have happened in between, you can pretty much innocentish-lookingly justify any change in opinion. A change in behaviour is really all we can look for, unless Frodo made a mistake, but changes in behaviour are difficult to detect and it's easy to accidentally lynch an innocent for it.
Yes, exactly. However, let us bear in mind that even switching your role can kind of change your mentality, even subconsciously. You start to behave differently. You have to react to people. What better, you have to interact in a certain way with your fellow Wolf (like, writing if you find him suspicious or not or whatever). For this reason, I strongly suggest that everybody states his opinion on all people, publicly, so that we may guess something from it. It's easier to catch a Frodo with unsincere behavior in his posts about people.

And he won't have to be unsincere just about his companion, but about all of us, of course - as he will know that we all are innocent, but an ordo of course would not be sure.
