I never truly believed his claim, but I thought the reason baddies make fake reveals is the desperate attempt to save themselves for at least one more day. However, I thought if a wolf-
Nog was truly trying to save himself it would have been far easier to just say he didn't have a wolf, or if he was going to name someone as a baddie, than to name that person as a wolf. To me, calling
phantom a cobbler wasn't a sure fire way for
Nog to save himself, which is the objective of an fake reveal.
At that time I didn't come to any sure conclusion about
Nog's reveal, but I wasn't really believing it either.
Then when
phantom pointed out since the cobblers aren't going to be revealed in the dead thread, it's actually smarter that he names a cobbler because then
Nog's fake seer claim would be harder to check. If
Nog claims phantom's a wolf,
phantom dies, and it turns up in the dead thread phantom is not a wolf,
Nog's trick is up. I wasn't thinking about the cobblers prior, and once
phantom pointed out why
Nog would chose to call him a cobbler instead of a wolf, I was dead set convinced
Nog had fake revealed. And that he's probably a cobbler, but I wouldn't be surprised if he turns up wolf either.
That all occured before your own trap, which I did not see until waking up later (which the BD happened to be brokey for a while when I did wake up
)
I think
Nessa's too easy of a target. Granted, that's what everyone said when she was a wolf previously, that she was getting framed, but then she fueled the idea she was getting framed. I think we tend to forget when you really don't have any information it's difficult to come up with some impeccable shiny-
phantom idea. All you can really do is read what's posted, guess at who sounds good to you, which typically looks like you're just sitting back and going with the flow. Going with the flow is not really a solid reason to suspect someone of wolvery, and
Glirdan, you shouldn't overlook the times when
Nessa has added her own ideas.
I may be back. I may not be.

Reasons should be clear enough from my previous post. And I didn't even get to her opinions about Nog, which really said nothing about what her opinions were.
Nog Day 1 "seemed ok" and was then was giving her a headache Day 2. And then the comment about how
Shasta's (or was it
Fea's? I forget) death made
Nog look better.
As for me, I'm ready to make my own bed.
