Shasta my love - hope reading through our live commentary of yelling at people to start listening to you will be some comfort.

I feel you.

So it's basically game over unless the Ranger makes a save and buys them one more Day? Otherwise it'll be 4/3 toMorrow, so unless the wolves accidentally Night-kill the Cobbler they can decide overNight who to lynch, pile on votes first thing toMorrow, Cobbler jumps on and we're done?

Maybe we can hope that, somehow, the Cobbler (being a Villager, really) is just as obtuse as the Ordos?

Of course, that'd likely be balanced out by some unscheduled Cobbleresque play from an ACTUAL Ordo...

Basically it's like that.

And we were so close to have turned the tables!

On a totally different issue: kudos to Boro for the narration! Loved it.

Well, if I'm right and Brinn is the Ranger, she has one more shot to redeem herself.

Nogrod · 06-11-2020, 04:19 PM

If we're right and Rikae is the Cobbler, the wolves most certainly have recognized their partner in crime and leave her in peace toNight.

So it's up to Brinn (or whoever the ranger is) to save the game.

Just thinking aloud... Could it be Pitch after all? It might explain his early jumpiness - and give a reason to his reasonableness of late?

I wouldn't be surprised at all.

Bah. I keep deleting what I type. But honestly! Throwing away your vote when it's 5-4... I can't even.

The worst of it--and this thread has written evidence--is that your team over here considered a protest vote to be a real victory!

3 wolves, 3 innocents who knew what was going on, and 2 innocents who were completely, utterly clueless.

A village is as strong as its weakest link... erm... the weakest links.

First time I can ever remember begging for someone to just be AWOL for a Day.

I think I'm going to need a stiff drink tonight to unwind.
