Botanna: As always, a stellar performance, darling! It was lovely to bicker with you again, though said bickering rather tipped me off that you were more artificial than intelligent (which is impressive, considering how cleverly you played this game). You were at the top of your very bloody game and you truly deserved the win here. ++Kudos!

BG: A hacker you were indeed, and you served your purpose well. An excellent (if not terribly nuanced) performance, young Miss. Congratulations on your lynch, as yours is really the only scenario in which it's okay to say so.

Boro: My sweet prince, how could you? Sadly your shenanigans were cut short, but you did quite well, and you put up a brave front against a seer reveal. As always, good show, you clever boy.

Gal: A bold play indeed, Ma'am! I'm sorry I wasn't around to extend your gift, but you did quite well on your own, and at least you made Kit's last Day or two interesting. Well done, and of course lovely to play with you again.

Legate: Terribly sorry I suspected you, lovely. Your words re: Rune didn't sit right with me and I just sort of ran with it from there, not wanting to rush to judgement (again) on Morsul. You played a good game and, as always, it was wonderful to play with you again, even for a short spell.

Rune and Dun: It was a pity you lads had to leave us so early. Dun, I actually considered saving you on the first Night, but opted to protect Morsul instead for some reason. My condolences to you both.

All the other innocents: Well done, all! The bots were simply too tricksy, but you all played a solid game and did your best against the pesky beasts. Just, um, next time don't lynch me in my sleep, okay? It's as much my fault as it is anyone else's, given that I couldn't return before DL, but this is only the second time I've been a ranger ever and I didn't even get to do anything. Still, a wonderful experience. It's been too long since we've played! We must do it again soon.

Botwen the Modbot (and her sultry co-bottess, Agan): A fantastic game, my dear! The narrations were amusing and the concept was fabulous. I thoroughly enjoyed the game both prior to my death and after the wretched event. As always, a joy to play in your game.

And limitted it down to Lottie or Legate. Went with Lottie because she was doing her submarining-getting-gifted-feeling Lottie.
That's absolutely typical way of things. I get the feeling this happens really often. So no need to worry about that, Boro.

Did you have any specific reasons why you thought I might be Gifted?

And as for your reveal, so the reasons for it were that you thought you might go anyway, and wanted to create some confusion? I am just wondering if it would have been possible for you to still survive... personally, I was inclined to vote you (in fact, already the Day before), and I know there were others, but would enough people have shared the idea? Then again, it ultimately worked, so you certainly can't say your sacrifice was in vain...

Well done, wolves! That was very well and tactically played!
Just so, just so! I must say, from my part, Kitanna really managed to stay on the "innocent-looking" list all the time and were it up to me, I'd have voted Shasta (sorry, pal, for suspecting you!). I really call this a good performance from a Wolf, and a deserved victory.

Certainly did. I was quite convinced, throughout the game, that you have some special role, but I was hovering between Cobbler and Hunter, Seer crossed my mind only shortly. And were it not for Boro's reveal, I could have still suspected you of being a Cobbler. Definitely good job.

Couple of times it happened. But not that often, for sure.

And likewise so sorry to have voted you... even though it was given by circumstances, mostly. (Really, during the first two Days, I practically had to vote people who already had votes, then in the next two Days I was voting for practically clear Wolves/Hackers... Talk about free will!) It really was such a total fail to vote you, of all people, and I am sure the village could have also done much more had you been still around. Well, hope next time it's going to be better!

But in conclusion, your Highness! Thanks to the Moddess (and to the co-Moddess) for really enjoyable game, despite losing, this was a good game and not only because it was after such a long time of no WW, but also because the theme was fun, the game itself was fun and balanced (no awkward roles or role-changes in the course of the game), people played well on all sides and it was nice.

I will let people talk about this game for a while still (because it really deserves it) and then I am going to ask when's next

Noteworthy things about the game:

A lone wolf victor. Nuff said.

I said point-blank that I am the Seer and no one cared.

The Night I dreamt Inzil I almost dreamt Kit, and the Night I dreamt Legate I almost dreamt Boro.

We lynch a ranger.

The hunter commits suicide.


The list goes on, I just have to go to school now. You guys continue it.
