By the way in case you wanted to know, it was Roa I protected the Night the Cats and I went for the same person.
Me? Why me?

Anyways, comments on the game:

Telperaca- Wish I could have seen more of you this game.
Kitanna- While you were in the game you made some very useful comments. I was sorry to see you picked off so soon.
Diamond18-Don't worry about the seer kill. (I think there's some sort of club for it now.) You played a great game and kept things interesting.
Wilwarin538- I was really surprised that you were actually a Cat. Well played.
Nogrod-It was fun playing with you again while you lasted. Fantastic luck with the list thing.
Garin-Sorry about the kill. I actually didn't expect everyone to go along with me, since I was wrong about everything else this whole game. I applaud your 100% lynch rate, though.
Sleepy Ranger-I was really sorry to see you go, even if you were a Cat.
Kath- Nice to play with you again. Thanks for the save, I really appreciate that.
Alcarillo- Sneaky, sneaky, sneaky! That's the first time I've played with an "under the radar" wolf. Well done lasting so long.
Eonwe-My fellow survivor! Great job in lasting till the end. We certainly showed that Cat what happened when you mess with angry hobbits! Congratulations!
Farael- You and your paranoia had me up all night going through the possibilities. Still, once you put more time into the game you were a big help.
Formendabras Took- Excellently dreamed. You really saved the village in the end.
Glirdan- It's always a shame when the noise makers go. You provided a lot of good analysis and discussion to the game. I was glad to have you along.
Mormegil- I really thought you were a Cat. You were really bold as a seer, and your input was very useful, (even post-mortem). Thanks for keeping the village active.
Thinlomien- Thin, as always, it's a pleasure to play with you. You have a septuple posting record to beat now though. Good luck.

Well I don't know why the Cats went for you but I protected you because you were the most (and really the only at the time) innocent looking person around.

But yes morm, sorry, Diamond did wonder if you were the Seer for a short while but I think I convinced her you were a Cat

Hehe....all of you played a very great game!! There was a point in the game when I thought for sure that it was going to go down as the shortest wwj game ever, but it turned out to be fairly lengthy.

There were quite a few times in this game that I was pokin at my screen when someone would get close to Alca and then back off and go for someone else. It was a different experience, to say the least, being indirectly involved in a game.

Hats off to the Mod-Goddess!! She did an absolutely wonderful job with the narration and death scenes.

Great game all! Great seer jobs, Morm and Form! You pretty much sealed the game.

Alcarillo, great game. I never really suspected you until it came to the final couple days, and then only becuase you were so mysterious.

Wilwa and Sleepy, sorry for the tough breaks. I was really hopeing you were a wolf, Wilwa, because I knew my last-second switch would turn on me otherwise.

Everyone else, nice playing with you! and hope to see you in another game soon!

Oh, oh oh, last but not least, great job as our resident Moddess Godess, Valier!

We did agree that Morm was the cat, heh! It was mostly because:
  • He seemed most upset by the rhyme, which (coincedentally of course) had two Cats on it
  • He retracted his vote for Wilwa after seeming to go after her, in what seemed like red herring Cat-on-Cat interaction
  • The day Glirdan died he had Kath and Glirdan listed as most suspicious, and I knew Kath was innocent, really thought Glirdan was innocent, and then Glirdan died to prove his innocence.
  • I found Form's B-Day dreamer reveal to be very suspicious. I thought he had dreamed of Morm and that they were both now Cats.

I knew, for some reason, that Morm was either the Seeker or the Cat. He just seemed so knowing in his posts. Unforunately I banked on the wrong side of the coin!

But it turned out well. Has the birthday dreamer been used before or was this new for this game?

Oh, and Sleepy Wolf, that link is for you. There's a picture of a yawning wolf on that page labeled "sleepy wolf" and I've had it bookmarked since I came across it, waiting to share.

Wow, so close Alcarillo, so close. Good job though.

Congratualations villagers on the win, even though I wish it was us cats doing the dancing.

I guess I can mention now something I noticed in Valier's first few posts. I noticed this, before she said that she hadn't put clues in her posts, when I thought there were actual hints.

In her first post she refered to the cats as the one with the scare, the largest one and the one to the left. The one with the scar was Sleepy(as she stated in his death) and I believe that I was the one to the left, leaving Alc as the largest one.

Here's why:

In that same post the only thing the "one to the left" says is "I agree". Then in Valier's post of her death the only thing I say is that I agree with Kath on something or other. So both times I was only agreeing. I was sure someone would notice that, but no one did. Atleast I don't think anyone did. *looks around suspiciously*

So Valier, did you do that on purpose or was it just a coincidence?

Really and truly I didn't even look back at what I had wrote in the first narration about the scar, the one to the left and the largest one. I just meant for it to sound more story like. When I wrote the day's narrations I had them mostly written down already, then I picked names from a hat to put names in the blanks, so it was just a coincidence that Wilwa you where the one to agree with someone.

I totally wanted people to have something to talk about with the story on the first day, but did not intend to give away any real hints and after I read everyones posts I was amazed with what I overlooked in my writing. I did not giving anything in the posts that pointed to Alcarillo or Sleepy so please believe me when I say it was completely random.

I believe you. But it is a very odd coincidence. I'm surprised no one noticed it.

Oh how lovely! Good work, dear villagers! I would've composed you a sweet little poem but you see I hate you and I hate dancing but thats beside the fact. The fact as I love all of you because Diamond just called me a wolf... a Sleepy Wolf not a Dancing Cat of Doom but a Sleepy Wolf...! All is right in the world again. *Eats an apple.*

Gah! I was so close to victory! So close I could almost touch it, but it slipped from my claws at the last moment! Curses! If only Formendacil were not a seer!

Well, congratulations Roa and Eonwe for making it to the end. Great job, villagers, killing off my two friends in the first two days.
