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 144 readable matches for Galway Harbour Hotel, 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.

Characters and room texture

Best Boards.ie memory leads

Galway Harbour Hotel has 144 readable Boards.ie memory signals around stories and gossip, old memories, regulars and characters, atmosphere and rituals and customs. The strongest current lead points into "Moving to Kilrush"; PubHub should keep it labelled as forum memory, then use corrections and source review to turn the best fragments into fuller local stories. The character lane is especially useful here, with 21 regulars-or-room-texture signals.
