So, was your vote an attempt to flag her as the seer?

That Greeks bearing gifts thing ... ! I read those early posts so many times, and there were a number of bantery comments that snagged my attention like "hm, what's behind this?", and in that case I did that and didn't stop to answer my own question.

Lesson learned: always answer all my own questions.

Brinniel as Seer... not what I would have expected. I'm a bit confused as to why I was killed, then.

Was like, "wait, what about Greenie"? Then went back and saw her on Brinn's list. Need more coffee.

So, bets on Rune and Boro?

If Brinn really is the Seer, one thing is clear.

That's a tough one. I think I'd go Rune.

Boro has been super-clever though. I thought Rune innocent in the beginning, but then we started differing in our opinions... especially concerning Lottie. I wonder whether Runewolf wouldn't go harder after her... but then perhaps his packmates didn't share the idea.

Anyways, occurs to me that through our vote toDay, we could have, y'know, suggested one of the remaining two (as a message to the Living) - but probably too late for that now...

sally, you should have hunted Lottie after all.

Not exactly. I had a feeling she was up to something, but only seriously considered her as a possible Seer mid-game (but only based on her Day 1 posting plus the now revealed roles. I honestly didn't read the GT in enough detail to remember most people's posting since I died). I was 99.9% sure you guys were wrong about Boro being the Seer though. I was kinda surprised that Mac suggested it, because a different role seemed much more likely to me at that time.
