Nope. I can see you doing it that way - and if you're an innocent it should be clear. But somehow the wording of it and the way you put it just made me raise my eyebrow... just listen to it once more...

So simple. You tell others they have either an ordo / mutineer or a ranger / mutineer and therefore the others should not pick you? You can't be real thinking people would take it at the face value, really... But the way you put it... Hmm... made me laugh when I saw it first, now makes me wonder as you thought it important enough to comment on one smilie.

That might be read as a trial to make one more protection on the coming Night or / and to postpone one's fate for one Day to be able then to defend oneself better on the next... but I think you've hit into something here Boro - even if I still can't rid myself from the idea that you and Lommy are wolves together... a stronger feeling I have on Mac's guilt. But that's just a feeling at the moment. I'll try to explain more toMorrow.

But argumentwise you seem to be on to something here. There is a contradiction between the phases A and B; the urgency of the A ("another vote for me would pretty much seal my fate, and we're very probably at most 2 wrong lynches away from defeat") sending the message that I'm too important for you to lose so think again, and the "nevermind-attitude" of the B ("you can still lynch me tomorrow if you want to"). Add to that the fast turning of the subject - phase C ("What is your opinion of Eonwe, for example?") - and one has a pretty awkward post in front of one.

It's tough to be a ranger but this just doesn't look genuine.

Which brought me into the next question... why hasn't Mac asked that you do not vote for him because he's the ranger and thence - with the "revealment" - dead meat toMorrow anyway (or did he do it?).

I have no time to go back and see how did it go. But rest assured, if he said that he might be true, but if he did not, then lynch him, pronto. A real ranger would not miss that fact but a fake one might just not come to think about it..
