There's that word again. "Fantastic". Wilwa said it too, you know.

Now this is certainly an eyebrow-raiser. Whatever killed Sally and attacked Lottie last night is pretty obviously some kind of were-Bear role. And in my experience, singular were-Bears generally have something going for them besides a simple nightkill to help them with survivability. Now, we've taken out two of the three Morphs, which leaves us with one Morph with a nightkill. Now, what I'm wondering is - why try to get us to discount the wereBear, who is clearly more dangerous than the lone Morph, completely?

Interesting and slightly expected, given that I still think Zil is the traitor and suspect Pitch.

Alright, I'm caught up. Now I'll finish that analysis of Pitch from yesterday.

I could be the Traitor. So could you.

Pitch could be the last Meta, certainly. But do you really think it's likely Wilmorph would have been so blatant as to follow his vote on Para so quickly? If she'd waited a bit to test the wind, then done it if no one else questioned Pitch about it, I'd think it more plausible.

EDIT: to respond to winty, a werebear kills at Night like a wolf, but he's by himself. He only wins if all the wolves die and he's left alive.

Good point, Shasta, and especially interesting considering that I started thinking Paranoia looked a bit werebearish yesterDay. When I get a chance I'll have to dig up the quotes that set off the alarm, but for now I'll just say the overall detached-but-cautious vibe is worrisome, as well as the smug tone this morning.
The situation as it stands now is ideal for a bear: only one competitor-morph left, but that one means the number of innocents decreases quickly - and, out of the gifteds, only the one who can't do the bear any harm left (and who might even end up treating the bear as a sort of "known innocent"!)
