Oh, so can I – but I'm not, as it happens.

Quite a distortion, there, Legate. I didn't "push it", I put it forward as a logical inference. Why are you "pushing" that she dreamed Pitch– which really doesn't make sense?

Legate, the point is not who is right– unfortunately, I'm not sure we *can* come to a definite conclusion– it's that, well, we've lost the Seer, the best we can do is try to glean what we can from her comments while alive. As is usual. Why try to frighten people off a particular line of reasoning? I mean, it's one thing to say, "I don't agree with you because of such-and-such", quite another to– well, honestly, you're pretty close to threatening me there. A bit excessive, surely?

Actually, Legate has been making a habit of aggressively steering the discussion away from certain topics. He did it on Day One, with his "warning vote" on TEW, and on Day Two by stepping in to end the theorising over why TEW had been killed. Not that I can't see the logic of that– after a certain point, such talk can become a waste of time and a distraction, or even a nice smokescreen for the evil side. Still, this is becoming a pattern. I don't know what it means, though– I could hardly call it a sign of lupinity, since the Legwolf I remember is a *lot* smoother and sneakier.

It seems clear that Sally had not dreamed any wolves, as both her votes were on proven innocents, and she offered up no strong suspicions on anyone else.

I agree that we shouldn't out too much stock in Sally's "will not vote" lists. Just as her votes were obviously not based on dreams, we have no way of knowing who, if any of those in the lists were there because they dreamed, or just because of thread activity.

Regarding the question of whether Pitch was one of her dreams, I rather doubt it.

She tried to vote for somebody else, right? Does that count as attempt? But you are maybe right. One would have to look at the votes to see when she voted and all that. Sadly, I really have to run now. Somebody please could check it?
After Sally made the "This is messed up" post, Bom gave Pitch a fourth vote. When Sally returned, she made no effort at all to defend Pitch. She simply brushed aside Kath's vote for her, gave a "won't vote" list, and proceeded to vote for TEW. I really think that if she'd dreamed of Pitch, she would have made some effort to sway those who were around and still hadn't voted: herself, Boro, Nerwen, and TEW.
