I think it is best to assume we are dealing with clever wolves. At this stage in the game, clever wolves will be going all out to kill the person they think might be the Seer. That is obvious. Therefore, the belief, voiced by
myself,
tar-a and
Anguirel, that the wolves thought
Kuru might be the Seer, is actually an obvious statement.
(
Celuien, I think you misunderstood me, I never thought
Kuru was the Seer. I have my own theories on that, which I'm certainly not going to discuss openly when wolves are listening.)
So what else do wolves do? Firstly, unlike the rest of us, they know exactly who is innocent. So one way to spot a wolf is by looking for people who seem to be theorising and searching as frantically as the rest of us for clues, but who then don't seem to follow through - whose conclusions seem either unreasonable or sloppy. This is why I was giving
LMP a hard time yesterday and this morning, his insistence on people following his plan in accordance with his own timezone seemed unreasonable and therefore wolvish.
Another thing wolves do is to work out a strategy at night to avoid any of their number being lynched. (Of course, there are exceptions to this, when one of their number is the object of general suspicion and the others need to distance themselves.) The best way for wolves to protect each other is by starting a bandwagon against an innocent they think is likely to be an acceptable suspect to the rest of the villagers. This is where people like
Wayne come in very handy for wolves, which is why I was quite reluctant to vote for him yesterday. It is also why I feel very suspicious of
wilwa's abrupt attack on me this morning - an early start of a bandwagon, I wondered - although I know she has time constraints which could explain her hastiness.
Now, someone is inevitably going to come along and say "oh look how much Lalaith knows about wolves, how suspicious". But that sort of comment would be silly and disingenuous - without wanting to break spawn's rules, we are all veterans here.
As for the points discussed so far today.
I like a lot of
tar-a says, although it doesn't necessarily absolve her in my eyes. If
Ang and
LMP were both wolves, (lord help us!) this sort of bickering is very likely how they would play it.
It is strange and ironic that
Glirdan, who was my chief suspect yesterday, votes for me today.

Wilwa, my dear, getting me lynched will be definitely be your second mistake.
