I've been pondering the mistaken judgement we made concerning the two innocents lynched yesterDay. Could we have known their innocence and chosen more wisely to eliminate the wolf instead?

As to Boromir88, I think not. He deliberately set himself up to be thought the Seer; I was not the only one who noticed that. He explained that by saying that he did it to protect the real seer; I suspected him to be a wolf masquerading as seer and voting for a "known" wolf to protect his secret identity. Since we did not know whether to believe his word concerning his motives for that move, we were right in suspecting him.

I never during the whole game seriously suspected tgwbs. That's the reason I didn't want to vote for him yesterDay. However, the irregularities in his voting did make him seem suspicious. My question is, who started the campaign against him? I'll go back to reread the posts later when I have time. That could give us an additional clue to the real ID of the wolf.

Fortunately, the evening meeting I was to have has been cancelled! I'll have time to discuss when the rest of you are here.

Cross-posted with Fea - thanks for your willingness to cooperate! That does speak for your innocence; however, I am unwilling to give up the only plan with some kind of certainty, so I do not suggest changing the double-lynching idea.
