Especially if your fellow self-voted! I don't think we can deduce anything about Nilp or Form from yesterDay's voting.
That is a bit too decisive "no" to my liking. We can extrapolate likely scenarios. This is slightly pinging my radar because it seems like Mac is downplaying the possibility to gain some insight from the voting pattern here, especially if one of Nilp or Form actually happen to be Wolves.

There's just one crucial "but" though...


Anyway, that's actually quite a nice theory. We should put it forwards as the third option-theory? The wolves and I do know it's not true, but to all you others it might make sense - and the wolves might love to have a go with it.
Okay, wait, what? I am absolutely not sure what to make of this. Why would you say something like that? Unless a) you are a Cobbler, b) you are a Wolf trying to drag me down with you by association? Or what?!?

Now I'm really thinking the reason for Lottie's death might really be her last point at Nog and now that people noticed it, he's preparing himself a collateral.

"Sign of innocence" as in further underlining everything that I have listed before, going along with her possible decisive, Seerish vibe, whether we think that her defending Hui was too obvious or not. The WWs did not have much more information than we did, they obviously had to decide based on something.

EDIT: x-ed with Lommy and Greenie
