Well, here we go - we are not much further than yesterDay, basically the same question remains. I think it's a matter of time, but the Wolves have effectively won a day, because once again, if we lynch one of them now, he/she would be replaced...

However, they definitely want to kill the Seer, even though another will appear, because otherwise - as has happened - our seer has info on (probably) two people. Just hope dreams weren't spent on Nerwen or Sally.
That's all rather self-evident. I also think that the WWs might try to avoid killing the Hunter, as it poses a threat to them with a replacement for the Hunter - which basically means theoretically, in the best case, trading two dead Gifteds for two dead Wolves (if both Hunters hit the target).

Curiously, sally wasn't one of the most vocal players, for certain. Looking at her posts, I am somewhat doubtful about whether there was something that the WWs might have considered a sign of Giftedness (most of all, Seerishness). Let's see:

Actually, this isn't a terribly bad catch (except for again, kidding). Let's remember, kids, to NOT GIVE THE NEWBIES A BLOODY PASS. Well, for now, yes, of course, because otherwise we'll never actually get to play with her, but not forever.
If we go with the hypothesis that the WWs killed Sally because they thought she was the Seer, this one could perhaps be considered that: like a Seer speaking about a dreamed Wolf. But that would work only in case LRH was really a Wolf, and even then I think it's somewhat overstretched (the "kidding" remark and all... the Wolves might have seen it as an attempt to cover the Seer's trace, but well...).

This is also one possibility, like that the WWs saw this as a Seerish remark about a dreamed innocent... but that's possibly even more random than the previous.

There is of course sally's vote for Lommy, but sally did not say anything outright Seerish to her vote:

And at last, this thing:

Also, I'm making this announcement/offer now. If you must, kill me. I'm an ordo and I won't be of much use anyway. No, seriously, no tricks. I don't want to be killed, but rather me than a gifted (although of course if you lynch me and it's not a tie you're going to lose, going by statistics anyway, so do make sure to read up on what happens in a tie, as I don't have time to do so). Anyway, yeah. If all else fails, I'm expendable. I won't be offended if I'm jumped on to save someone else; the village comes first, my own survival second, especially when I won't be around much.
I am really wondering about this one - so would this look to the WWs like sally being a Seer? If anything, a Hunter, I'd imagine, but would they really think that the Seer give herself up in such way, unless they thought she would be trying to bluff in such a way? But it seems a bit overstretched already. And then again, if they'd think sally was the Hunter, I really cannot think why would they kill her.

Summa summarum, if Ron Weasley Hubbard is a Wolf, or if Lommy is a Wolf, then it might be possible that the WWs would have thought "ha, Seer, and a dangerous one, let's get her!" But it is also possible that it was simply meant as a non-trace kill, as sally really hasn't been around much, which I find even somewhat more plausible (the question then rises, however, what would they get by a non-trace kill in a situation where nobody has any trace anyway). Or they are simply "sportish" and killed the one who asked for being lynched...
