Good job wolves... I guess... Though I believe our Nienna, Sally, and Lottie trio was brilliant. And then Sally decides its a good idea to vote for the person the wolves were voting for... *shakes head*

No worries Sally though we did have it in the bag

At least we had the wolves working for that win. Though if the Hunters *coughFEAcough* had done their jobs...

Lommy I thought you did beautifully convincing us until a seed of doubt was planted for Sally.

Thanks!

I agree with Roa about killing the silent ones... jeez.

Wolves why didn't you kill me? Did Kath tell you I was the Ranger?

I was the Ranger ps. in case no one got that.

My code was me telling Sally that Lottie had the same role has her but that was in ** so I was trying to tell her that she had the same role as me as we had planned out Sally false revealing...

Gwath what was with you and letters being capital out of place?... was that on purpose?

Please tell me you spent hours trying to decide if it was a secret code or not. They were just accidents.

I spent five minutes, then realized it was either an accident or you were just screwing with me.

Ouch.

I really thought I had been convincing enought and we'd lynch Nerwen instead of me.

Epic fail Sally and epic fail hunters (except Hakon) and epic fail more or less all innocents more or less for all game.

But I don't really mind we lost - I was getting too busy for ww (yesterday I used tons of time for ww although I should've been studying) and the last Day really compensates for my lousy success percent (although I did vote Kath on Day1 and suspect her here and there!): I was really glad to find out that it is not that difficult to figure out the right way of things, more or less, with analysis, and that you actually can trust some people in ww, and that I'm not too proud to change my opinion completely in the middle of a Day!

Kudos to the wolves, you played so well. It took until the last Day for me to figure it out. I know I kept suspecting Kath every now and then, but that's what I always do. Nerwen, you only made yourself suspicious by that very opposturnistic vote against me. And once I started suspecting you may be a wolf, your past posts started to look worrying too. And Gwath, really, you are the worst, because even on the last Day I was considering you innocent on the expense of Lottie's innocence because you just seemed so genuine. *shakes head*

Thanks to everybody, it was a great game (although a bit of a massacre).

She stole that word "massacre" from me But it indeed was one. Well, anyway, really memorable game, and amusing one, too. I guess I do not have to recount my feelings on the last-minute switch, as probably everyone, I was like "oh my, it looks that they are going to win after all! How could the WWs hide after toDay?" and then, boom. Well, happens, happens!

First, one slight apology to Roa for going after you so madly. I have no idea how it could have went like that for so long, but you certainly fed it a lot with your stubborn way of posting. Gosh, if I remember how that nasty Gwathagor jumped on that, and I thought how reasonable he seems! I was tempted to say "really, please innocents, let's try to think as much independently as we can" before lynching Roa, but then, I thought we need to be just determined and lynch Roa, otherwise nothing will get done ever.

And I really didn't have any stronger suspects at that point, which, actually, after the revelation of the WWs, is really not that surprising. Okay, I don't think it was that bad in the end or that you would really be totally quiet, but Kath and Gwath, at least in the beginning, really were hardly around at all (though that said, Gwath really compensated for it on the latter Days, and especially on the last one!). I am not speaking at all about Nerwen. She was probably the one I never suspected during all the game. Ever. I even suspected Nienna more, in the sense that it occured to me (especially after I died) "oh my, what if I was totally fooled and she is a Wolf".

And I should really learn not to overcombinate that much. Even now I was thinking I was holding myself back, "maybe too much", I thought at one point. Still it became clear that I should be holding myself back even more.

Don't be. I should note here, for the record, that after Roa's death, it was you whom I suspected. And actually, killing me was probably something that helped the village - if I had been alive, I would have probably only contributed with more confusing stuff and suspecting the wrong people.

The best (and somewhat funny) example of this is that Nog actually gave me a choice, that is, if I survived the Night, I could have either remained as a known innocent for one Day (my role would be revealed in the narration), or he would NOT tell my role, but just mention that "the Soulmate was preparing his revenge" and I would die at the end of the Day, but I could take one person with me. When I was briefly considering this (though later I decided to go with the other variant, and anyway it showed up that I died), the person would have been Fea

Anyway, brilliant game, everyone! (Especially the Mod!) I really enjoyed it, though really I don't have the nerves for this... Maybe I have grown being less used to such adrenaline, after being lynched or killed on Day 1 or 2 in several past games, thus dropping out always before the real frenzy began...

I will be more careful what I wish for next time arround. . .

As a wolf I normally get lynched on day2, so my mission was not to get killed on that day, of course I did not intend to last even shorter.

I was very depressed when killed, not only because I thought I would have the chance to cancel the lynch all together, but also because I really wanted to do well as a wolf. (something I have never done before)

Unfortunately i was undone by poor planing and chance. It was only late on in day1 that I realised that the way this game was constructed, encouraged wolves to lay somewhat low and not be hughe attention grappers. (because of all the hunters)
Anyways I felt quite confident that I could avoid getting lynched as long as i stayed arround until deadline, unfortunately I had to bring some stuff to my sister that was leaving for Rome, then on my way home the train got stopped by police on the tracks. . .(suicide?)
On my way home I debated with my self about what I would do if I did become captain, I was thinking that canceling the lynch on the basis of the votes being to random might make me look innocent.

-----------------------

I was very impressed with the wolves for the rest of the game, I never had the imagination to imagine such an amazing wolf victory. Well done!

And while I was amazed by the wolves, the rangers supplied me with lots of intertainment.

Thanks everybody for turning bitterness into amusement.

Not hours but definitely a few minutes because you were all like "look at every word" hahaha. I soon realized that unless you meant 'Roa Also Sorry' I had no idea what you meant.
