What the Boards.ie trail is useful for

These cards turn the raw forum trail into practical page leads: gossip, character texture, time depth, source depth, and review warnings where the match pattern is broad.

overmatch_review

Big archive trail, needs match review

Boards.ie produces 105 readable matches for King's Inn, but the name or hit pattern is broad enough that PubHub should treat this as a source-mining queue before writing stronger lore. The links still preserve useful public memory leads.

Best Boards.ie memory leads

King's Inn has 105 readable Boards.ie memory signals around stories and gossip, old memories, regulars and characters, local colour and atmosphere. The strongest current lead points into "He fcuking hates that spoon."; PubHub should keep it labelled as forum memory, then use corrections and source review to turn the best fragments into fuller local stories.
