An alternate explanation to the NIGHT kill has already been put forward by Form yesterDAY:

To put it in other words, perhaps the wolves decided that, if Aganzir was converted to their side, and we woke up today with no one missing from our midst, she'd be the last one we'd look for as a converted new wolf, simply because she had been so conspicuous yesterday, and thus the sort of noisy person that wolves leave around to keep the heat off themselves.
Of course this doesn't detract from other explanations (like us barking up the totally wrong trees!)

Pipe Sincerity.

Having pressed the 'Submit' button accidentally on the abovementioned post (was absent-minded and thought I was previewing it), I forgot to tack on the statement:

So we should probably look at the ones that escape our attention at this moment (i.e. the quiet ones.) Consulting the post counts:

Under 10: Lari, Green.
Under 20: Sally, Shasta, Brinn.
Under 30: Nilp, Izzy, Gwath.

(I'm not saying that they're all being quiet as a tactic, I acknowledge the existence of RL issues, but I remember winning a game where I used my RL-enforced quietness to my advantage--of course, getting the seer right and using that to my advantage helped, too. )
