Fair enough... I'm not guilty, of course, but I've no problems with being on the suspicion list. As LMP said about himself, being suspicious is usually a good survival tactic, so long as it doesn't go too far. And as Morm noted in another game, I rather like living on the edge in here...

Egads! What a nightmare! Boromir and Mormegil agree with me often enough outside this game, but with these games I find myself butting heads with them more often than not....

Interesting comment here... a veiled reference to being a Gifted? A simple, Innocent, statement? Or a Werewolf's ploy? Definitely a phrase to remember...

Now, for a few comments regarding the False Seer and his/her dreams...

You do realize, of course, that even if the False Seer reveals themselves, they don't necessarily have to tell us the truth regarding who they dreamed about! If they had strong suspicions regarding who was innocent and who was guilty, all they would have to do is change the names around, and no one would be the wiser. And, if the False Seer was an insightful player, there's no reason why their guesses couldn't be even more accurate than the false answers.

That said, I agree that the only value of the False Seer is a proven innocent. However, I've never seen any indication that proven innocents are useful before Day 4 or 5- when they can become a rallying point for a shrunken village. That said, I would caution the False Seer to wait a couple days before coming forth, but if they choose to do so now, they can at least rest assured that the Ranger can protect them for a night...
