Well, yes, that occured to me too but it was funnier to phrase it that way... after all he claimed he knows Elvish, but he didn't say anything about knowing English...

I just don't know what was the point of posting the post count this early though... it strikes me as exactly the kind of useless information cobblers are interested in. On the other hand, it is something a bored ordo could do while trying to say something at least to keep the village awake...

And lastly, what's it with everybody considering this Day1 so important? Have I missed something? Of course day1s are important in a way as later investigation material but half of the village seems to regard this Day almost as something sacred and throwing around mystical comments that toDay will tell everything about this and that... weird. (Actually, rather funnily, strikes me as the sort of nonsense cobblers could say. Why am I seeing cobblers everywhere? Why don't I see wolves anywhere? That would be more useful...)

In fact, now that I got to it, I think pretty much everybody is seeing cobblers everywhere, not wolves. That is understandable (cobblers have been a big topic and it's much easier to spot cobblerish than wolvish behaviour this early) yet pretty disturbing...
