I take a break from paper writing to find this sad situation in Shamville. I always liked Spawn. She was so kind to me and my goats.
But I can't dwell on our dearly deceased.
I can see though that something that keeps coming up is Lalaith's suggest for more talking. Firefoot and Kuru both seem against it. They want posts with meaning that will help the village, not just tons of talking and nothing to it. And I agree completely.

What would happen if people said as little as possible on DAY ONE and then just voted. We might be able to pick up a few tells or force the wolves out in the open because they think they could pick off somebody. Unfortunately, this would be at least as open to manipulation as any other opening strategy. They would probably just vote for different people they hoped wouldn't get hung (which is potentially what they will do anyway).

That is quite interesting, but I see a few problems with it. If almost nothing was sad and no hints dropped here or there and at the end of day all the villagers just voted at random, well I think it is possible that no single villager would get more than one vote. And if everyone voted for a completely different villager what would that really tell us? With complete silence on DAY 1, well, I think that could be as bad as too much chatiness. I must say that would be an interesting plan though, but I really can't see it helping the village.
That's really all I have to say right now. Hopefully I can be back in a few hours with more to add.
