I always thought the roles were randomly chosen! I guess that makes the fact that I've had special roles in the last three games rather flattering, where I just thought it was coincidental!

I think some mods make it random, some don't. But the ones who don't will never admit that.

Well anyway, good game it was! I liked the roleplaying, at least at start, later, as probably always, it proved to be unmaintainable as the thrill of the game and the rush rose. Shame that there were too few people and Menel couldn't use his "special surprises", though the game was, as someone already said, paranoid enough even without them. Mainly because of Nogrod, whose rumbling even till the end about lovers and false seers and double-plots was really great

Gil, buddy, sorry for sending you to lynch, but I thought Lommy needs to have chance to speak, even though she was the most suspicious to me... however, seeing this matter was eventually solved by our great Hunter, it went to good end... even the dead may rejoice. I would also like to congratulate to our Ranger Rikae for bright thinking and also to Mac the Seer, who bought me by his innocent behavior near the very start.

And many apologizes to Six for suspecting him - but reviewing your posts, it seemed really like a "simple" wolvish behavior - and when you yourself said you don't think you are much into the game yet, I didn't expect any complicated schemes from you as a wolf and took your unfortunate innocent behavior as a newbie-wolvish performance. It paid me off, though, I ended lynched for suspecting you - so you may feel satisfaction on my part.

And xyzzy, I understand what you meant by having trouble with people using the "in the games before, this person behaved differently..." reasoning. I also didn't like it when I played for the first time (this is only my second game), but now I realized if you want or not, if you know the people, it at least partially influences your thinking, even subconsciously, even if you don't want it. But I don't like when people use it too much (you cannot even analyze a Wolf trying to cast suspicion on someone because of this if you don't know the person as well), though if you played as many games as most of these folks did, it is probably only natural for them.

So, the final thanks once again to Menel for good game and the question is... when does the next game start?

Actually, if you thought this, then we made a little enclosed circle. Because my reasoning ultimately streamed from that you were accusing each other the way I thought two innocents would never do. So if you based your final decision on Gil after me, you based it only on what I based on you

Mithalwen · 04-14-2007, 02:24 PM

And you have never been in a game where two innocents tore each other apart?

No ? Well you ahve been lucky!!! And you do have to bear in mind that Gil had participated so much more in recent games which is great but it is disconcerting ....... sinceI knew he couldn't be the seer (because I was innocent) , it did make me think he might be a wolf ..

And the last minute thing freaked me out. The first time Nogrod played he was Seer and I was a wolf and we really had this amazing "who blinks first" moment when either could have got the other lynched.. I have a feeling we killed Gil again then ... Mus tswitch the default setting form "if in doubt kill Gil"

the main reason i focused so hard on you is that it ticked me off with your small posts with your defense and nobody paid attention to me, i was beginning to get sick and tired of being ignroed in every WW game for nonsense that i tried to bring flavour into the mix, and i still got ignored and worngly-lynched... again...

oh and rikae, it is up to the mod, usually they would want to spice it up and pick people they think will be good for the certain role, i have been a wolf once - killed second day, so i'm a half-fenris wolf - and hunter once, where i was lynched off by the village, and after my lynching, the vilalge basically screwed themselves over...

Hmmm... it seems the post-game discussion is going on in two places... Menel, would you like to specify which place you'd prefer the chat to take place in?

Meneltarmacil · 04-14-2007, 06:06 PM

OK, post-game discussion will take place on the game thread from now on, not the admin thread.
