Tol-in-Gaurhoth CXV: On the Borders of Mirkwood - Game Thread

[Rikae]

What if the wolves are alphabetically adjacent?

I could totally see a cobblerMac calculating the likelihood of that ... I'm guessing it's high.

My first post in the Dead thread would have been a cartoon reaction image, but since I basically Deaded the village, I posted it here.

Boromod making me commit sudoku [sic] was lovely. I felt like doing that after reading the lynch narration.

Never suspected Sally. For some reason, I knew Kath was innocent, and I fairly trusted Lommy.

That's funny; I also tried to set traps around his house, but he wouldn't let me either.

Rikae only pinged my radar with their totally-diferent-from-Mac's list. Did anyone check that? It had

Which was funny now but disconcerting in the moment.

Mac was still on the border of my various lists, but a combination of factors made me decide to (drunkenly-like) vote Shasta: aforementioned avalanche of votes (without knowing the context of said votes), his voting record, opposition to the Dead thread information transfer (that whole thing must have been hilarious to an outside observer.)

I just realised that this is also how I would've played as a Wolf, but for some reason it made me trust you more than Shasta.

I was guessing my trap failed for being too obvious, but it was probably obvious for a different reason. I'd also wait for Sally's (❤️) lycan letters, but why was BG the Night 2 kill?)

Brinn was also on the same border as Mac, but for opposite reasons--she failed a lot of my voting tests, but I trusted her analyses. (Btw, I'm partly just posting what I would've posted had I been around that DAY, sprinkled with hindsight comments. That's kinda what the weird indenting is for.)

Also, to recall Wolvish domination past, probably my best games as a baddie was with Brinn and Greenie (and a pro-villager Wolf Inziladun, who had already been lynched), where, on the last DAY, we went divide-and-conquer (accusing whoever was most convenient for us), but that was a game with retractable votes. Doing the same without that same option takes boldness. So really, all my applause to the Werewolves.

Pitch I knew was bad, but was convinced he was the Cobbler. Of course, the NW had the freedom to act Cobblerish, but that's wisdom for the next life, I guess.

My suiciding the village? Hahahahuhuhuhu (laughing then sobbing)

Later I'll post my thoughts on the Beast Hunter role, and to answer this:

Aw, Nilp! <3 You know what this means? It means you gotta play again. Seriously, setting an alarm to vote and attempting 5 pages in as many minutes - WW points for dedication.

But I second your question: why BG - and if wolves were surprised Greenie was the Seer, why Greenie?
