Very accurate. And yes, I always die, but sometimes can die at opertune moments (saving the seer because the wolves were confused about what ti think about me? that was lucky)

Nice quiz

I have never been a giftet so I just chose randomly at that on, but I still ended up as Canon Fodder and it is only to true.

Why you've found my secret virtue! Thesis papers. Besides, I enjoy a good secret now and again. I try, but life just won't let me play sometimes.

Oh well, at least I'm not alone in this unfortunate position.

Though I must confess, my favorite role is actually Ranger, thanks to the game I participated in before Dueling Wizards. Frustrating, but fun...and I still turned out to be cannon fodder in that game. It's a unique sort of curse.

You are a liability. No matter how helpful you try to be, you usually end up with the wrong conclusions and help the other team more than your own. You're the unwilling, unknowing cobbler. But you are potentially very dangerous as a wolf.

Truly a surprise. Can't wait to see if the last statement is true...

Well, not entirely helpless, but useless maybe. All of that is true up to the point of that last sttement, which I most certainly am not.

When I wrote this I had already played quite a few ww games, now a year almost have passed and I still have not been a gifted.

I think it is sad.

Hardly. In fact in my first WW game the wolves just barely squeaked out a victory - and all three of them were "quite wolves." (Holby, Oddwen, & Azaila if I'm not mistaken)

Well I guess that's probably true, if you don't count my first game.

Sounds familiar! Oddwen modded the game and the wolves were me, Holby and Nilp, all "quiet wolves".

this quiz was harder mostly because of my hcange in playing style lately...

I turned out to be Cannon Fodder. Maybe that explains why I jeep on getting lynched early on as an innocent.

I only started playing WW after the quiz was made!

I don't know about brains, but I certainly play in a mad and bad way (though it always has logic behind it) Actually, I fancy another game soon...if anyone can stand having me around. Maybe this is why I always get lynched

I forget whether I've posted here yet. I got Cannon Fodder. The quiz would be a lot more fun if it had more variety in the results - it seems to me to be mostly divided into "you're useless" and "you're not useless."

Oh come on, surely you can't believe such a thing! Aside from that, that would be absolutely baseless suspicion. I wonder why would you do that if you were innocent?

I find it strange that Gal is just coming here and posting randomly such stuff, while she could instead focus on something more productive. I think she is just trying to slip under the radar while maintaining the feeling that she actually is contributing something. Based on that, I will probably vote for her toDay.

Surely you can't believe any such thing! I mean, come on, it is my duty as a wolf to frame ordos and hopefully gifteds... erm, uhh, I mean, catch wolves, and I'm innocent.

There Legate who thinks that the village will not be very impressed if his role was to be found out. Now let's put on the thinking cap and figure out what role that could be. It doesn't take rocket science to understand that Legate is hiding his true intentions and hopes that we won't find them out. This leaves me with a definite conclusion about his alignment.

So, regardless of the fact that we are both dead innocents, we have each other's votes.
