This pings me quite a bit. It’s a valid day one vote, but it’s got too much of a “oh darn this sure is hard for us townies!” feel to it. It also picks two players in no danger of getting lynched, so it’s just a throwaway vote at this point. Then he exhorts others to come up with more theories.

I’d vote for this.
