I think that Fea is too smart not to have taken into account the possibility that her comment would be enough to make the baddies consider whether Nogrod might actually be the Seer. Therefore, I think it likely she knew exactly what she did. It was just enough of hint to draw the baddies' attention to Nogrod, but not enough to make it look like she was painting a target on his back or something. Does that make sense?

To Gwath:

I suppose so. I thought it was just Fea being Fea and putting random crap into her post to confuse the heck out of people when it happened. You make more sense, but I still think lynching Fea is a big mistake at this point in the game.

Yes, it does, actually. The bit I couldn't find was her explanation (the Star Wars stuff).

It's rather headache-inducing. The original comment doesn't seem like much– in fact I was surprised Nogrod reacted to it– but she does appear to be saying she thought Nogrod was the Seer at the time she made it.

EDIT: x'd since Nog at #180.
