Eh, regardless of phantom's true motives, his public image was the same as mine - and if it was a trap to kill another innocent (as it looks like) then I fell for it too. Yeah, I was a bit unsure of Izzy's reveal but sometimes you have to make a decision.

Gaurcrist is very much on the radar now. He might have been advised to cause some trouble at the start of the day to distract the village (or is the Robber Bridegroom). Again, regardless of phantom's true nature, Gaurcrist's early action isn't helpful.

I have to agree. I can understand (somewhat) the animosity there, but the single-mindedness really hasn't been useful.

I find the phantom to be a pleasant and respectable member of this forum. Usually, it's other people who lose control around him - see his signature for proof.

Gaurcrist has obviously been seriously affected by the phantom; either that, or it's an intricate ruse cooked up by the both of them.

This isn't hard, Aganzir. You said that Gwath's suspicion of you led you to believe he was the seer. If you're not evil, he wouldn't suspect you. If he wasn't right, you wouldn't label him with the Gifted role that's more or less infallible about such things.

Same here. We only had a few minutes to decide in... (Sorry, Shasta ).

I'm wondering... If Izzy is a wolf, what is Aganzir? Could that have been a wolf-on-wolf thing yesterDay?

We can refine this a bit: Gaurcrist has repeatedly voted the phantom for no particular reason except that he's just sure he's a baddie. Gaurcrist is still alive. So I should say the odds are heavily against tp being a wolf– unless a.) Gaurcrist is one too and it's all some weird (and badly executed) plot to make tp look good or something or b.) the wolves have let Gaurcrist live because they think he's the Robber Bridegroom.

Place your bets now!

the phantom is a wolf and Gaurcrist is innocent. (50-1)

They're in it together. (12-1)

They're both innocent. (12-1)

Gaurcrist is the Robber Bridegroom. (8-1)

"It's a safe bet with Auntie Nerwen!"

EDIT: X'd since Eomer at 535.

So, if the phantom's the RB, what is Gaurcrist?

I wonder if you're right. Or, even if he's not tp cheating, is he another Downer's sock-puppet? Seriously. I mean, the "naive" questions toDay, like "what does it mean that someone has been dreamed?"... that can't be for real, surely?

Anyway–

++Aganzir.

If we kill her, we still won't know who the real Seer is toMorrow, unless she's Night-killed... but I'm afraid I'm just not game to take a shot in the dark right now. We need to get a wolf.

Awwwwww, you caught me. Yes, I am tp, and I admit I broke the rules, so it looks like I have to be lynched.

Because it is so amazing that anybody would think that I'm the Robber Bridegroom. Funny as well.
