The wolf on wolf vote for Inzil the day before...sheer dumb accident (that at least worked to my benefit).

I had no clue what Nerwen was going to do so I was imagining some weird scenario where she voted Inzil, I voted Greenie. Inzil would be lynched, then I'd be exposed and Kath wouldn't look as shiny. Had I not been so paranoid, yeah...flipping mad.

Thanks Shasta. Wonderful game.

That was the first time I was a wolf with Inzil and Kath. Awesome mates.

Sorry, Greenie, Legate. I'll fight against my lupinity until I'm lynched. No pity for furriness.

Heh. I was hoping Azura wouldn't vote and would be modfired, and we could all vote for Greenie and win it right there. The, he and Laeko showed up at the last minute, and there went that plan.

We had talked the Night before about faking a Ranger reveal, but we were only going to do it if our kill on Kitanna had been blocked. When Nerwen revealed right at the end of the Day, it caught me flat-footed. Boro posted something like "Do you have a response to that, Inzil?" I thought it would be pointless to counter Nerwen that late in the Day, as I was already heavily suspected and no one would believe me. My response was to stay silent and put in a vote for Greenie at the last minute, thinking Boro would follow me and if nothing else, we'd have an interesting tie. But it all worked out for the best.

Same here. I'd never gotten to be packmates with either of you before, and it was a blast.

I didn't have as much time for the game as I'd thought I would, and I was worried that had hurt my side.
The day before the game actually started, I got a new boss, and was handed a routine task that normally I'm given a week to accomplish. This time, I was told it needed to be done by the next day. My apology for being useless on Day 1 was outwardly to everyone, but secretly to my mates. Anyway though, like I said, it turned out all right.

Thanks for modding, Shasta!

And good game, village! I was really hoping you'd accomplish a rare feat and lynch an innocent Nerwen. You made it challenging for us and a lot of fun at the same time.

I'm sorry for my lack of participation on the last Day. Having now read the thread I can see I wasn't really in line for lynching anyway but I did feel like I'd ended up asking for a bye on a Day when the village couldn't afford it.

That said, yay Boro and Inzil!

So much for my Azura going submarine theory. Boro was next on my suspicion list solely on account of how he, the most brilliant of all members, hadn't figured out anything in terms of messages Sally had left us. And that was DESPITE the fact that Sally told me she had in fact done so.

While this did make me laugh, I'm far from the most brilliant, at least I hadn't been able to spot any hidden seer messages. I am curious to find out what her seer dreams were, because I was going off that she dreamed me than Kit and left clues in our GoT bantering. I just manipulated her "I trust your judgement" and reaction to Kath's vote to the pack's wolvish agenda.

Funnily enough, Sally's first dream was of you, Boro. Then Kitanna (though she almost picked Kath), then Greenie.

Nerwen protected Kath twice, but I don't remember who else.

First and foremost, I owe an apology to the village for being so useless. I don't know what got into me on the last couple hours of D2, but next morning, when rereading, I asked my self a number of times where was my head at the critical moment.

One thing that everyone seemed to misinterpret about my behaviour, though, is that I genuinely suspected Nerwen. What is it with hunters and rangers trying to kill each other? I think it's her name:Nerwen makes me nervous, haha....

About Bom: at Night I automatically sent the name of my second highest suspect (first has been Pitch... is there something about yellow boots that annoys me?) and I was on the verge of switching it to Nerwen, when I thought that I'm very unsure about her - and Bom messes with my brain a lot too - but Bom would be an enigma that no one would know what to do with, so I left my pick as it was...

Wolves have done a terrific job this game. I wasn't sure about anything regarding Kath and Zil, but I was completely certain that Boro was an innocent. Looking back through D1, though...

Oh, a stab in the dark, you say! Aha! :P
This is really sad. Just proves the point that in order for an innocent to find out the roles of other players thay just have to take my list of suspicions and invert it. :/

Am I really the only person who saw something seerish in sally before her death? This, I believe, is the only exception to the above theory.

Anyways, great game everyone, and thanks Shasta for modding!


Oh, and by the way, wolves - why exactly did you kill sally? TEW? Kit?
