I'm not sure if that would have bought him more support from where I was watching. I actually think like St.cronin said his play was probably the best one he had.. If he had said he guarded himself and then Path came out saying he was attacked instead, I still think people would have believed Path.

I think saying he guarded BK and blocked an attack was probably his best play there personally, but Path did a better job of supporting his case. I think ultimately the thing that helped Path the most were the day 1 clues that actually had told Eaglefan to even try to attack him that night. The foundation for a more believable story for Path was there is all.

In the end, a bodyguard block is pretty huge in most games, but in a small game even more so. So to get as close as he did to getting out of that with even 1 extra life taken would have been huge.. I thought it was well played by both Path and Eaglefan, but also equally well played by some of the villagers who also chose correctly.
