Sure, but not in ways that will get them immediately suspected. Wolves play safer than Cobblers do, on the whole, because it's more important for them to stay alive.

If sally had already sent in a pick but has second thoughts about it, then it would make sense for her not to want to be lynched. As I took it she seemed to indicate with her earlier '...depending on how my suspicions play out'.

Why on earth would the hunter send the pick earlier than she has to?

I'm aware it's a question of playing style and how many risks you want to take, but if I was in Sally's position and the hunter I would never ever reveal.

Yeah, not buying it.
I've been pondering over this too. I just don't understand why a hunter would reveal because the point of their existence is to die and hopefully take a wolf down with them. Of course it's preferable at Night, but if she is the hunter, now they'll probably never Night kill her. And while I understand the concern about taking out another innocent, I would think Hunter Sally more likely to take that risk.

X-ing with a bunch of posts I see.

And I really don't like that Sally didn't tell us who her pick would be. If you ARE the Hunter, give us all the information so we can make an informed decision!

Exactly, seconding this. SALLY!!! Tell us now (now that you have revealed your supposed role anyway) and we can make an informed decision based on this.

The sooner the better. The sooner the better. The sooner the better.

Any minute you spend with it means you are spending time making it up.
