Boromir, I'm not sure I'm convinced at all of Kuru's guilt.~mormegil
Would you be convinced if I said I'm 2 for 2?

Yes you heard it, 2 for 2. I dreamt of Feanor on the first night quickly finding out her wolvish ways. I wanted to lay low being the only gifted in the village, but still if the wolves were able to catch on to me I wanted to leave something for the village to notice that I dreamt of Feanor. I am grateful that Sleepy (whether intentionally or not) voted for Feanor as it gave me good cover during the night where I was able to spot our second wolf...and of course it's Kuruharan if you haven't figured out. As I said I found her fun and games with Kuru quite suspicious and that was the wolves downfall.

I was hoping not to have to reveal myself tonight, but I definitely would want to see Kuruharan lynched, even if I have to reveal myself and die at night. I don't know if this will turn out to be the right move or not. I feel confident leaving the hands now up to the rest of you innocent villagers to find the last wolf. Hopefully I've performed my job well and it's been a pleasure while I've been here.

I don't know of anyone's innocence for sure, as I've only dreamt of the wolves . I feel pretty confident that mormegil and nogrod are innocent. I'm unsure on Jenny though will put her as a likely innocent. Again, nothing is for sure however.

I am highly suspicious of Firefoot, though I don't know if Feanor would be that bold and protect two of her companions. However, I will say Firefoot is my top suspect right now.

As far as the others I'd watch out for Oddwen, Azaelia, and the other ones who haven't been around. This will be one of my last times on tonight, again fellow villagers it's been a pleasure. I am now trusting you to find the last wolf. Audios.

Edit: My antics and craziness today of going full out Kuru and rather being a bit...umm arrogant, was to gage and get anything to see who the last wolf was. Right now I think it may be Firefoot, but again I encourage you all to take time, be careful and make the right decision.

Well, this is quite a news!

And most incredible news indeed... having dreams of two wolves in continuation! (Or whatever it is in English to say that one thing comes just right after the other...). Kind of a miracle that one too (remember last night...)

Kind of can't believe, and then I can. (Your recklesness as a seer even tops mine at my first game... )

I was on my way of making analysis of you all heated discussers of today, as I ran into this. Have to think now. It's almost 4AM here, and need some sleep first...

This is getting even more than interesting!

Shocking!

Boro has come right out and said he's the Seer.

This could mean:

A: He's the Seer and is throwing himself, quite literally, to the wolves.

B: He's a wolf and this is a bold ploy.

C: He's an ordinary villager who is so sure of his hunch that he's willing to throw himself to the wolves by falsly claiming to be the Seer.

If he's A, then I guess I should be voting for Kuru forthwith.

If he's B, I should be voting for him.

If he's C, I may stick with my suspicions of Jenny.

Gosh. This is exciting.

It's A. I'll be with holding my vote to make sure no one messes with it at the end.

I had hoped I provided sufficient camouflage for you not to die tonight.
Sorry if I botched things, I just wanted to make sure we got Kuru lynched today. But I do feel fairly confident that you fellas can take care of the last wolf. Though I won't forgive myself if it doesn't happen...well maybe I will

I'm inclined to believe Boromir is the seer, just judging by his posts against Kuru.

If he's not the seer, there's only one way we can find out for sure.

I trust Boromir, if he were a wolf I don't think he'd be so bold.

It would be completely asinine for a wolf Boromir to proclaim himself at this point. As it stands he's only a bit hasty.

It's just his hastiness, that makes me wonder.

In principle I'm inclined to trust him - all the marks would show this to be true - and a real wonder at the same time (two wolves, two nights)!

As I'm not so experienced as most of you are, I hope you allow me some sleep first (= thinking about different possibilities and not getting any sleep at all!).

I'm going to go with option A

Why? Well, if Boro is a wolf he won't die tonight, and we can kill him tomorrow with that knowledge. If Boro is an ordinary villager, I don't really think he'd pretend to be the Seer. It could get us all killed and no villager wants that.

+ + Kuruharan

If Kuru is a wolf and dies, and Boro dies in the night, we'll know what happened.

If Kuru is innocent and Boro does not die in the night, we'll know what happened.

If Kuru is a wolf, and Boro doesn't die in the night, then the last wolf is just insane -- either an insane Boro thinking he can get away with killing his fellow wolf, or an insane wolf thinking s/he can get away with making Boro look wolfish and letting the villagers lynch him after Kuru.

Worst case scenario:

If Kuru is innocent and Boro dies in the night, it means he was a bluffing villager who was mistaken. I'll trust that Boro wouldn't put us in that position.
