It doesn't matter if I state my strategy, because doing so is in and of itslef suspicious enough to keep people thinking that I'm a wolf, whist assuring the brighter or more trustworthy players that there is method to my madness.
I remember Alain trying to use this same exact strategy in TWG VI (an attempt to establish this strategy was the main purpose of the disasterous chat that I referred to in that game). Turned out he was a human in that game. His plan may have even worked too, had we all not lynched him the day he suggested it >_>

However, even if the strategy is the same this game, I find it odd that he is throwing it out right now. In game VI he had publically announced the fact that he was guardian, and the strategy was a direct attempt to keep the wolves from killing him. This game, however, he hasn't really done anything except for his little scuffle with LD early on. Trying to use this strategy once more strikes me as just a bit prematurely defensive. I don't think that being defensive like this is nearly enough to label someone as a wolf, but I do think that it is a likely indicator that Alian has a special role.
