Werewolf XLIV: In the House of Tom Bombadil - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

note: a Finnish semi-swear word existed here as an exclamation of annoyance for 13 minutes then I deleted it because it was quite stupid to put it in there in the first place...

Thinlómien · 03-03-2008, 12:15 PM

Sorry I'll edit it away in minutes, it's a Finnish word for something this forum would censor.

Argharghargh. It was too close.

Thinlómien · 03-03-2008, 12:17 PM

It doesn't matter Mith as Dury was a wolf. Well, at least I can claim catching her and Nogrod, although I was not the only one to do so.

Thinlómien · 03-03-2008, 12:18 PM

So Nerwen's a wolf too? You were very good then.

Now, tell us Mr Volo what would you have done in our stead? Why o why did you vote so hastily if you were not a wolf?

Thinlómien · 03-03-2008, 12:21 PM

I already kicked you Rikae, so I won't shoot you. It probably does not comfort you at all, but at least I was as confused as you were (although I never accused a certain person called Lommy at any phase

).

Rikae, please take the stance I took: laugh at the general poorness of the villagers and the absurdity of the whole game and rejoice that you caught Durelin and Nogrod. It feels nicer that way.

Rikae · 03-03-2008, 12:24 PM

I wouldn't be dissuaded only by a lost game. It's not worth the RL cost anymore, though.

Anyway, well played wolves (especially Nerwen, who still looked innocent toDay...)

Thinlómien · 03-03-2008, 12:24 PM

Rikae and Mith you just can't quit!

You were both good regardless of doing some mistakes.

I didn't play particularily well but I'm not going to let that dampen my spirits and i think you should do so too.

Actually I feel like gloating even though we lost. I mean, although I was totally confused for most of the game, I managed to get two of the wolves in the end. Not bad. Now I don't need to skip the next games maybe.

Although seriously, some sort of pause would possibly do good for me.

Thinlómien · 03-03-2008, 12:26 PM

Hope that's not a final decision, Rikae.

*goes off to delete the pask-word*

I wasn't - I haven't had a good game for yonks. I really can't play whne I have no access at home and am spending 10hrs a day at work and commuting even if I get to leave on time.

I mostly only play if people I feel an obligation to ask me so please if you like me at all please don't ask me to play. I would have given up ages ago if I hadn't wanted to mod again and with Ang absent our joint venture will probably never happen.

I really don't think I participated enough and I feel I let you all down so it is better if I retire at least untill my circumstances are different.

As I said, if you care for me at all you will respect this. I will soon sign up if I am in the right mood and have time.

Mithalwen · 03-03-2008, 12:19 PM

Oh I am hopeless. I had decided Dury creeped me out at lunchtime nad thought Nogrod most likely to be keeping me alive...

Sorry .... take this as my official retirement from WW. I am rubbish and it deranges me..... (mainly in the French sense of the word).

Nogrod · 03-03-2008, 12:22 PM

I must say that most of the times I've been a wolf it has been quite unpleasant. I have always loved the role of the ordo - or that of the cobbler!

But this was just phenomenal! Nerwen and Dury were just great! *bows down*

And yes we took a pile of risks as we went forwards with our kills fex. but in the end they paid off and made the game just totally nerve-wrecking!

Sorry to gloat but it was so close indeed toDay...

And even if you ordos might disagree right now I must say that the capability of the innocents to make conclusions is slightly better in a game with no gifteds. You were so near so many times!

Kudos especially to Rikae, Lommy, Volo and Menel for great spotting!

Nerwen · 03-03-2008, 12:25 PM

Yes, you guys were scaring the hell out of me toDay, you got that close.

Volo · 03-03-2008, 12:30 PM

What do I learn once again? To trust my suspicions and points made before the actual moment. In Noggie's game I suspected Mac strongly at one point, but dropped it. Now Nerwen.

Lommy's right, might as well gloat a bit, as Dury and Nogrod were my mains in the end and Nerwen still a possibility, or at least I didn't suspect anybody else much more.

Congratulations! You were great Wolves, and Innocents too! Rikae, it was a pleasure to play alongside (or behindside) you!

Volo · 03-03-2008, 12:33 PM

Nogrod pretty much summed it!

It's the art of swallowing one's mistakes and embarrassment!

...and I have noticed that it's quite annoying when people say that they're no good, because they're always better than somebody else, from the perspective of the somebody else.
