The problem though wilwa, is this is do or die day, where an unknown hunter could be far more harmful to the lynch today than a benefit to us at night. We need to worry about doing the job today in lynching a wolf, or in the very least the cobbler, or you can stick a phorc in us.

The situation calls that since we need, and I mean absolutely need, a baddie today there really is no choice but for the hunter to step out (which is also why it makes no sense for a wolf to make this reveal). Cobbler possibly. But if someone is actually the hunter, they absolutely 100% have to step out and say so now. We need a baddie and if Skip's not the hunter, this means he's one, and the real hunter has to step out and say so.

As it stands, Skip's been highly defensive all game, which usually to me says wolf or gifted. It could be that he's a wolf and knows today he could very easily be lynched, so might as well sacrifice and drag out the last gifted. However, I'm not sure why a wolf would do so right from the start. How many times has the 2nd leading vote getter from the previous day been basically forgotten the next? More than once. Maybe he is the cobbler, either way, if he's not the real hunter than the real hunter absolutely has to reveal now so we can take care of business today in lynching an evil Skipper.

However, I'm buying the reveal as it stands right now, because I completely understand his reasoning behind it. Yes, it means the wolves probably won't risk trying to kill him at night now (but what's the point of worrying about the night when we have to worry about lynching a wolf today?), but the situation is this desperate. Because of the desperation today, the hunter really has no other choice but to reveal, and since Skip was nearly lynched yesterday, not wanting to waste our time acquiring suspicions nad votes today, it's really understandable.
