If someone held a revolver on my forehead and demanded for a take on the wolves I'd probably say
Ang, Boro and
Nerwen... (or
Elra swopping places with

Boro anyway? This just looks too much like
a) trying to out the gifteds (and then revealing as one)
b) hinting to
the phantom quite openly (different strategies though, but
Boro had to leave early - thus the correcting moves by
Ang and all the questioning by
tp).
Just check this:

I'm sorry if I'm being unByzantine here, phantom. I'm alright at lying, and I absolutely love the strategy of actively second guessing nocturnal amusement, but I am useless at cryptography. Actually had to take an exam in it a few months back. Worst candidate they'd had for years

What else is this but trying to tell
