I makes me antsy too since it puts some peril into our vote -- but that's the point, for it will imperil the Wolves too! The only way the Wolves can exploit it is NOT to vote for the person who is going to be killed if that person is an innocent. But if the vote is close, the wolves will not have a clear idea of who is to die until close to the end of voting -- you see where this is headed...it puts pressure on the wolves: vote early and risk being caught on a short list, or wait until the end and risk being spotted as someone who is afraid to vote...

It's not mathematically perfect or guaranteed, there's no way to develop any system that will do that, but it does mean that the wolves will have to react to what we are doing rather than simply the other way around.

I'm happy that the seer protection plan is getting some good response -- but it will only really work if the seer agrees to do it, which we won't know if he or she has done for a while!!
