Boots I suppose I can probably speak candidly in this thread now...

I had a suspicion you were not going to like that, which is why I held my peace and didn't screw with the oooooooh so tempting target yesterday.

That wasn't his problem at all. His problem was that he disclosed his role virtually guaranteeing this very scenario if he made it to the end. (Yeah, Boro I said that. )

Sad thing is one of his big powers never kicked in in the game which I am highly bummed about. I am seriously tempted to refrain from explaining it and asking Boro not to either on the off chance I ever mod a game again and can use it again. I want it to be a surprise.

Very close...that might almost have been a more clever idea.

I agree, I think Boro should have kept quiet about himself.

Anyway,

Well get on with it. Lynch the beast. When all is said and done...just think better of me and remember that my claws were sharper and my aim was better than even Smaug the Magnificent.
Of course! He's the pet dragon!

Now I want to let him win because dragons are cool.

Boro fought valiantly, Boro fought nobly, Boro fought honorably. And Boro died.

The dragon thing just occurred to me.. I am glad he killed me. I didn't think the dead could get ill but I have been sleeping since I stopped being sick. Sorry probably was a factor in being quite so crouchy just before.

It would have been grim if I had had to try to save myself and the village today. If it won't make a difference I might vote for him just to salute that he kept to the deal.

Well, I'd say this thing is over. Kath won't vote for herself, right? The only other choice she has is Boro, and he already has a vote. Then with our vote on top of that, that's the end.

Po'boyro!

But yes, that is a sad role superbly played. So kudos for Boro, especially of the way he ended with it. Well worth the game.
