Following the time-hallowed tradition of looking for a wolf among the first three posters:

TEW (Ewie? Tewie?)
#3: says we're in big trouble, asks for a confession;
#8: 'confesses' he's not a wolf (big surprise!), song parody;
#10: does a not-awfully-helpful recap (to be fair, there really wasn't that much to comment on at the time);
#12 & 14: apologizes for gender confusion;
#16: thinks everybody is 'still neutral suspicionwise';
#18: disagrees with Izzy's suggestion to lynch wilwa for her song parody.
Conclusion so far: eager to play and posting quite a lot in terms of post count but not of actual content; most of it typical D1 early Morning banter (which is also true for everybody else up to that point), his last two posts show tender stirrings of actually playing. His obvious eagerness could simply be due to the fact that it's his first game in ages, or it could mean an excited wolf. Bears watching.

wilwa
#4: song parody (and some announcement about her future participation).
At the very worst, this can be considered buddying up to the Moddess, which is hardly a lynchworthy crime, especially as quite a lot of us have been guilty of it at times.
#25: gets around to some game-related posting, discusses the dynamics of dealing with two wolf-packs.
I have to concur with Nog's answer to this one. Whether or not we should halve the Night-kills if we can is not a question which should cause an innocent much headaches, especially not an experienced player like wilwa.
Conclusion so far: this last post does worry me - looks like contributing, but is really quite wishy-washy, confused and confusing. Most suspicious thing I've seen up to now.

Shasta
#6: obviously possessed by Nilp's spirit. I wonder if he'll take it to the point of voting himself.
Conclusion so far: the most enigmatic of this trio. 'Here and reading' but not really saying anything. Should go consult an exorcist.

Everybody else to follow by & by.

(x-ed with quite a few)

I was going to say all that increases is our chances of getting eaten, but now that I think of it, I have another Question to the Moddess:
What happens if both packs together equal or outnumber the innocents? Do they devour the innocents jointly before turning against each other (as I'd assumed), or does one of the packs have to outnumber the innocents by themselves?

Remembering Mira's game, there's not much I'd put beyond a Lover couple determined to win... But maybe not at this early point.
And just out of curiosity, what would you say should a WW-themed song parody be about in order not to be construed as hinting to the wolves?
