Just to make one thing clear (if someone has misunderstood me). I really did enjoy this game! It was the most fun! And interesting. And I'm sad that we lost not because we lost but because the game ended so soon.

And the wolves played it so smoothly and wisely that I must just admire them in their cunningness. We ordos made our best but I blundered heavily - well aided a bit by Rikae...and the alignment of the stars.

I just think that if the trials would have been more balanced eg. every trial would have been actually played threesome the game would have been even more enjoyable. And it would have lasted longer.

Lynched on a coin toss!!!!

Leave it to me to get lynched on the day when it's me, the cobbler, and an ordo.

This game was really interesting, and I'm glad I participated. I was just gearing up, though, when I was taken out of the game *glares at McCaber*. I have to say, my fellow wolves were fantastic. Lommy had me laughing so hard I cried, and for the rest of you, you avoided looking connected so well that I couldn't find it, and I knew who you were!

For the record, I wasn't lying when I listed my reasons for being agreeable. If I take part in any new games, expect much of the same, regardless of my role, until I find my feet (or teeth) again.

When I realized how many seers were still alive, I thought my team was done for, but it all turned around so quickly. I don't think the game was that unbalanced, but the lack of revealed roles during stage two certainly worked in the wolves favor. I didn't think the wolves could pull off a kill, though, with so many protectors running around.

McCaber was a great cobbler. I knew that if a wolf was killed on Night 2, you'd manage to get yourself lynched to win the game.

I wish I'd been around longer, but it was fun. Later!

Thanks for the welcome, everyone! I heartily enjoyed being a McCobbler, even though it was easier than you make it seem. I mean, it's not that hard to seem suspicious in this crowd.

(Sorry, Roa. I felt bad after I found out about you, really!)
