I'm a bit skeptical too...I'm still undecided about the PMing of our votes (eventhough if this way the Vamps don't get to vote to muddle things up)...secretive votes seems to be cutting off one of the ordinary villager's greatest advantages to the game and putting a lot of focus on the reliability of the gifteds. If the gifteds get whacked early, I think this will be a bloodbath (in the vamps' favor) as
Eomer has so dubbed.
Though I like challenges and I think this one will be even more challenging than Nogrod's game without the seer!
