He has a point. Dave has been almost suspiciously quiet this year. Maybe he's learned something, though--looking back at the 2006 game hint thread (for Dave's hints), it's scary how close we came to figuring out the game. Worse, he almost gave it away, but nobody thought to see why he was picking on someone else.

I'd suspect that Woodie gave an unofficial red herring, and Dave's silence is another.

[edit] I took a look, and he has dropped a few possible "hints", but I only found about three or four. None is particularly obvious.[/edit]
