He is, however, exactly where I wanted to be toDay. So that means I need to kill him out of spite.

You played well McCaber. I'm interested to learn what specifics Boro knew. The whole Lalaith kill still bothers me. It was too big a shot in the dark to be coincidence to me.

That bothered me too, because at the time I didn't see why she would be ruled out by a Werebear type as the Seer, and yet in his reasoning for killing her he said she definitely didn't look Gifted. I'll have to dig it up after the game, but at that stage in the game she was a possible Gifted. At the time I was content to think, "Perhaps he isn't afraid of taking a shot because his ability only works on Wolves," but if he is a true WereBear then he obviously didn't care if he killed Gifteds (and why would she have been an obvious Wolf?).

Well, I had a pretty strong hunch she was a wolf, and nearly dreamed her the night she was killed- so it may have been only a lucky guess.

Still, multiply that by three and it's awfully good lucky guessing...
maybe as I suggested he could originally only kill wolves, but can now kill anyone.

I wondered that too. I also was thinking he may have some sort of seer component to his role. That would be powerful indeed.

By the way, I very much enjoyed the Cage and Power Rangers, etc. We're going to have to reread this a couple months from now just so we can get the laughs all over again.

Anyway, no matter what looking forward to Kuru and Boro explaining everything after the fact. Assuming it can be explained.

Ok, I give up too, since everyone else (including Mac) has decided to do as morm says.

However, I do think it's not only acceptable to use this strategy, but, as I said, offensive and un-sportsmanlike to intimidate us into abandoning it with bad-faith accusations of rule breaking.

This was a fun game, but that turned it sour for me.

Oh well, I guess all we can do is:
++Shasta

and hope for the best.

EDIT: X'd with morm

Rikae, no offense was meant and I apologize if I came across wrong. I did not intend to be intimidating, I was trying to sort out what it all meant and looking at it from the moderator perspective I had some questions I wanted to bring forward as from my perspective what was occurring was indeed breaking the rules.
