Dead, it is your job (as well as the living of course) to vote for....well, MVP, for lack of a better word. The person who you think deserves most to win this little game, regardless as much as possible of your own role. Have fun!
I take it the votes we, the living made already toDay don't count in this?

Nope, they totally count. It's just between you three living.

HOWEVER, if the village wishes to elect both a winner and an MVP (which could include the dead for this category) I'm totally okay with that.



And I have to go. Later kiddos!

Hey, folks, it's good to see you again, especially after such a spectacular village victory. You three were really fabulous - although I should more properly say you four, including our dear deceased Fea. Wish she could be with us now! (On second thought, I suppose she will rejoin us as soon as she's recovered a bit from the stress of her violent death.)
Speaking of Fea - I, too, had a Pen Pal; guess who.

OK, to get the voting done with, it's a clear decision this time:
++Nerwen
Gold medal for stellar seering!
I move, however, that the elimination of competitors by death stop here and now and Zil and wilwa be awarded silver and bronze medals - I don't care who gets which, you both deserve silver in my opinion.

I don't have a particularly lot to say. The wolves never really had a chance.

I believe Nerwen and Zil have done a fabulous job and Wilwa too for just surviving.

Now... an MVP... hmmmm I shall have to ponder that.

Oh and I was NOT PM-Buddies with Fea... I had my own PM-Buddy and I don't share well. *Snuggles her most wonderful Lover*

*is happy to not be the only one crazy about the Olympics*

I would be happy with a bronze. I just survived, I didn't do anything awesome like the gifteds. haha

Fea really got around. haha

Yay!! So we're back and some of us a little less furry then usual

It's going to be a hard choice to decide who wins cuz all three of you played phenomenally well...

MVP on the other hand....

++The Moddess

For the pure fact that she's Sally and this game was fun to play and read on after I died (Does that earn me brownie points? )

Oh, and I TOO was one of Fea's PM buddies, although we never talked.

Is it bad that I agree with everything Glirdan just said?

Except the part about Fea. We had interwebs snuggle time.

Funny - until Zil came out, I was pretty sure you were the Ranger (sort of meta-reasoning, because you asked on the Admin thread whether Simon could be Night-killed - which I read as you being worried whether Fea would need protection; but I suppose the true Ranger would have been less conspicuous).
- Which reminds me that I never got around to explaining the kangaroo thing before I died. It was like this: my wife overheard me mumbling to myself, "wilwa, what are you?" and spontaneously said, "A kangaroo". (Pitch collapses laughing.) Explanation: "The name sounds like something that moves in leaps." Unfortunately, I didn't take notes of the rest of Onomatopoetic Downer Zoology According to Mrs Pitch, but as far as I remember, Fea was a sea-horse, Lottie a coach-horse, Eönwë an earthworm, Nog a dog, Inzil a dragon and Form a polar bear (!). Make of it what you will (no offense to anybody intended, of course).

It totally second that!

And while we're distributing medals, I nominate Nienna for the Golden Arrow for Outstanding Hunting, Lottie for the Grammy for Most Entertaining Known Wolf Performance, and our other Wolves for the Carcharoth Award for Wolf-on-Wolfing Above and Beyond the Call of Duty (*cough*Nog/Glirdan, Nog/Eönwë*cough*).

Pitch, that is hilarious, I had totally forgotten about that. I'm quite happy being a kangaroo. A kangaroo with butterfly wings of course.

I think our Moddess was definitely the most valuable player. I concur.

So, to make it official:
++sally for MVP

And here's my posthumous song (not quite up to date about Fea's and Nerwen's roles, but I'm too lazy to rewrite it now):

Stairway to Werewolf Heaven

There's a lady who's sure all that furry's a wolf
And she's building a gallows for werewolves.
She's the Simon we chose, and whate'er she says goes,
With a word she can condemn or save you.
Ooh, ooh, and she's building a gallows for werewolves.

There are signs in the posts but she wants to be sure
'Cause she knows sometimes words have two meanings.
In her dreams she has seen who is what, so it seems,
While suspicion may still be misleading.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,
That the hour is nigh for a lynching.
And I read through the posts, who looks guilty the most
And deserves to be killed without flinching.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

Though the wolves weave their lies, if we heed his advice
Then the phantom will lead us to victory.
And a new Day arrives for those who survive
And the village will echo with theories.

If there's a bustle in your PM box, don't you be shocked,
It's just a message from the Mod queen.
Yes, there are three wolves who've been worsted, but if you're Cursèd
There's still time to change the role you're playin'.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know,
The dead are calling you to join them.
Dear ordos, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
Your lives are still on a razor's edge.

And as you wind on down the road
Your post-counts taller than your souls
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How being trusted turns to gold.
And if you're thinking very hard
The Truth will dawn on you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be the last one not to fall.

And she's building a gallows for werewolves

I was PM Pals with Fea as well.
That is quite marvelous that Nerwen was the actual Seer.
Nice job ladies.

++Bakery for Sally
