That's just awful. At least you, Shasta, had better luck as a wolf in that game than in your last BD werewolf game, huh? Bad luck for the villagers to kill their seer day 1.

Shasta is now avenged! And so is Nog. Both were Day one Seer lynches, as far as I remember...

Tell me about it! For me, the worst thing was that I got three of four wolves and the cobbler right on the last Day, but it was too late by then. Should've just stuck with my gut reactions all the way through - Duj tIvoqtaH, as the Klingons say. Still, calling bovine faeces on Nogwolf's fabricated case and being proved right was quite satisfying.
By the way Rune, brilliant cobblery there! And Greenie, I never got around to asking - whom did you actually hunt?

You actually get it more to the point you might know as my surname is derived from the word "bull"...

But as to those cases... well, there was no need of me to make them (and I wouldn't have called them "cases" in the first place as they were some random first few Day's throw-aways more meant to entertain others than to actually suspect anyone) and I could have just not made those few remarks (a wolf could have been easily more low-laying) - but where you're right, is that a wolf might be more easily led to make these "let's make these funny-ones" in the beginning of the game... even if a responsible ordo might try those as well...

But really: the three people sitting more or less outside the circle of fire - c'mon, that's no argument but a kind of "he has fangs, let'as lynch him" - a kind of an opening accusation any reasonable ordo might do on Day1 just to make the game go forwards and to provide something to "read".

If I remember correctly, what provoked my strong objection (to avoid further implied swearing) was you saying that they had been outside before but had moved inside now so as to better blend with the crowd - an argument from wolf psychology that's something quite different (in my mind at least) than just saying "they're outside, they must be wolves". I'll give you that it wasn't really a 'case' and you may not have expected a lot of people to buy it, but semper aliquid haeret, doesn't it?

I'll admit however that my memory of the game isn't exactly crystal clear - a reminder that Werewolf and alcohol don't go together that well, at least for me.

As far as I can remember, she kept hunting Oddwen at least for the first few Days(/Nights) quite steadily.

I will just chime in and say that it was actually a brilliant game, even though I died so soon, but at least that made me able to watch most of it (and imagine my horror at first seeing the Wolves rise at Night... well, as it goes)... and later also to go to the sauna while the rest still continued playing (actually, I recall it was still Day/Night 4 when we both left AND returned from the sauna...)
