Of course, dear, but let's avoid the elevators, shall we?

I must contest "who won".

SPM didn't win, even though he was the last confused ordinary standing.

The village didn't win, even though one of them was the last confused ordinary standing.

The werewolves didn't win, neither of them, for obvious reasons.

Bethberry didn't win since she wasn't ever quite playing.

Feanor didn't win since the Dark Lady offed herself.

Winner: excellent writing. Fascinating. Well done, Fea.

I was so excited to be a wolf in this game and thought I would do rather well as there are so many loud people I could really blend in and live for a long time. I was rather depressed to die so early and must admit I lost some interest in the game due to my early death and then to see Eomer die who was my killer, you will never be forgiven, I though Fea rather cruel but had a good laugh. With life picking up and not being alive anymore I didn't follow very closely but it seemed interesting and fun.

Probably the craziest game ever though. Fea thanks for picking me as a wolf...should I thank you or were you hoping me to have a colossal failure?

I actually hoped you'd win. I very nearly toyed with the outcome of the coin flip (sorry Diamond!) because I was a bit sad to see my wolves go so early.

Well, as some of my fellow dead (WW-wise that is) can attest, I was convinced that the phantom was the final werewolf based on this basic truism: if he gets killed or lynched by the end of Day 3, he's innocent because no werewolf would want to let him live, so dangerous is he. If he lasts and lasts, he's a werewolf, for obvious reasons. Since both of the werewolves were killed by the end of Day 2, the choices were clearly random, and so the phantom survived as long as he did. So the "truism" still holds. I'll be watching you, phantom....

I was sad about dying so early as well, Morm. Anguirel seemed to think he'd baited me with Kath-suspicion but I hadn't even seen his post before I made my vote for Kath. I wish I could have hung around for another few moments to put that right. Other voting, such as Diamond's, was based purely out of spite and should not be congratulated just because I happened to be a werewolf.

Again...

Anyway, fun game; although you all had my deepest sympathy, trying so hard for so little reward. You were sort of like Fea's guinea pigs; and she loved that fact. You know this to be true. Never forget her, the time for revenge will come.

Morm, I know you will never forgive me, but I can live with the glory of lycanthropicide.

Actually, Eomer old salt, it was a double-helix-bluff. I was claiming I suspected you on the basis of your Kath vote to get people to vote for you. My real reasons, I faithfully assure you, were entirely irrational...
