This would be fantastic!

I looked up the weird Sally quote I was talking about -

What bothers me here is the underlying assumption that Huin and I were both innocent, and the bit about "if he were a wolf with Hui" looks both like an afterthought and not necessarily logical (as wolves do sometimes pitch their fellows for lynching). This is either wolfish knowledge of people's roles showing through the cracks, or just me going too much into semantics.

Sadly that's probably true. I do agree with you about Lottie too. If she survives both toDay and tomorrow Night, she's definitely a wolf.

I'm happy with Huin! Or Sally, if the situation were to call for it. (You also have my blessing to change our pick to anyone else if something comes up!) I'm going to sleep now, but I'll be back sometime during the Night to see who our new arrival is

The village appears to have taken the vote out of our hands completely... Huin will be lynched irrespective of what our vote is.

After some of the epic bandwaggoning last [strikethrough]year[/strikethrough] Game, I am very wary of this mass Hui-waggon... but if he's a Wolf, they don't need our vote. If he's not a Wolf, no point suggesting we all thought so too (that gives the actual Wolves more cover, I think).

So... in the interests of sending a message to nudge them to keep looking in another direction, I'm going to say: ++ Sally

I will say though that, if Innocent (as is my Death-throes read), Hui throws a major wrench into the "Morsul Theory." Might have to start from scratch...

I theorise that it is well past bedtime. -_- Also that I was royally set up by /someone/. I'll read through here in the morning.

Sorry about Day One, Greenie.
