Don't say It, Agan. Just don't, OK? Thanks.

And *facepalmheaddeskheaddeskheaddesk*
Can't believe I got sooo close to getting it right on the last Day - I realized that if Agan was a wolf, Greenie was her only possible packmate, and in this case wilwa the most likely cobbler (but I'd felt pretty good about her early on and somehow didn't get around to do an update check on her; not sure that would have told me much, though). Only that was a real big If, and both of you wolves put up such a convincing act. Still, after Agan's sort of careless vote for Form an hour before DL I came within a hair's breadth of voting either of you just to save him once more, but for a last minute Kierkegaardian leap of faith in the wrong direction. So much for being a gentleman.
Kudos to Shasta for that Day 2 frame attempt which everybody but TEW thought would be too risky for a wolf to try; revealing sallyWight was a clever move too, discrediting her accusation of Agan and making us look for the wrong reason behind it. (Yes, sally, I know, if only we'd listened to you... but then you'd probably have looked good enough to survive and kill us yourself in the endgame, right?)

My apologies to Zil, Eomer and Form. Zil I was completely wrong about, sorry. Between Eomer and Form, it wouldn't really have mattered on Day 5, as both were innocent... It's a small comfort that my feeling of some manipulation going on then was correct after all, but I got the manipulator and the manipulated all wrong. Form, you were on the right track all the time even though you had so little time to play, kudos!
(By the way, I'm not surprised so many people thought I was Ferny, I know I did quite a bit of unintentional cobblering this game, alas.)
Kath, that was a great recovery after the Seer lynch, voting for Greeniewolf on the last two Days!
Nerwen, a pity you couldn't make it for the last DL, as you too had the right nose; but if you thought Form was Ferny, I'm not sure it would have made a big difference.

Volo and TEW, too bad both of you got lynched so early - especially TEW, who got us the only wolf we lynched and left good hints to your dreams in those few posts; nice Seering there!
Nog, pity you got killed so soon and we didn't use the advantage of the following kill-less Night any better.

Boro, interesting game design, and I think it was over all well balanced - even with Harry Glirdyleaf lynched on Day 1, the village managed to lose it mainly on our own folly. Eombadil probably had it the hardest, not being able to reveal under any circumstances, but then I don't know if he'd have been believed anyway. Thanks for the modding, and thanks to Fea for the hilarious narrations (it's a bit sad though that TEWieSeer didn't get one, I think he deserved it *nudge*).

Fun game, everybody!
