Surely you should know better than to trust my judgement by now...

this is what, 7th game in which i have picked out 2 out of 3 wolves. i wonder when people are going to keep me around longer because my dumb luck seems to work everytime... i just watch what is said, wolves have a way with words that i detect almost right away...

le sigh... ol' mis-understood Gil...

Well, it would have been fine had you not started to threaten me... Seriously though, I must agree with what Nog said about your tactics. But better luck and better strategies (from both my and your part) next time, I hope...

Ah! these silly languages which need to make a distinction between sexes...

I might have ignored the fact that Groin looked quite innocent and kept pursuing him with my weak day 1 reasons, hadn't you said it aloud.

Any ideas on how to be a better werewolf, should I have the misfortune to be cast in such a role again in the future?

Yes: Do not write to Sally "DON'T quote me! We are NOT on speaking terms." when the game is still running, because one who reads it will conclude either that A) she is not a fellow Wolf, logically, because you blame her for your lynching, B) she is a fellow Wolf, but in any case she lynched you and you don't like it, so it was not part of any wolfy plan - both these variants leak out information outside the game, and this is why you should not talk about the running game at all outside the game until it is completed - or C) eventually you are bluffing, because it was part of a plan, but that would be even worse, because that's, in a way, cheating.

It's hard to say how to be a better werewolf as both the personal styles of playing and the combination of other players seem to produce a bit different dynamic every time. I mean I have been an excellent werewolf (like in the last game where we all three stayed alive and butchered the whole village) but also a lousy one (being lynched on Day1). I'm not sure how those things happened other that they were a combination of adjusting or not being able to adjust to the present game and trying to see the way through it.

But if you want a catch-phrase then try this: be yourself even if you are a baddie, speak and act like you would do were you your innocent self. It's hard sometimes - most of the times - to be sure... and it doesn't even always pay off.
