She did indeed. (I've been following this, of course.) I didn't suspect her at all until she started claiming to be the Ranger.

And Mithalwen... you came this close to winning the game for our side!

Good game everyone!

For the record, I *did* send Mith's name in last night. I just retracted it later.
And yeah, it was crazy of me...I kind of had a better plan but as it was I ran to RL work without shoes or lunch.

As a sort of peace offering, I would like to dedicate this song to every Seer wot was ever lynched. This would be

Evisse the Blue, lynched on Day One in Game III
Kitanna, lynched on Day Two in Game V
Volo,
lynched on Day Four in game XXXIII
Lhunardawen, lynched on Day One in Game XLVI

And to you who lynch the wrong people, for making Our job just a little easier...Thank You.


*salutes*

(apologies to Evanescence, and you)

You can all blame me for our loss: I was the one to toss the coin...

I'm so proud of myself. I really caught Nogrod, and Gwath too and this is the first game ever I voted for no innocent! Wow! (Admittedly it helped that I died so early...)

Although, there are some things to be less proud of. I think I owe you banging my head against the wall, don't I? *bangs head against the wall* I was so confident that either Kath or Legate was a wolf, even though now that I think of it, it really didn't even fit nicely. Also, after Nog's lynch, I was 95% sure the remaining wolf was Sally - indeed, I even PMed to her saying "you nasty wolf, you killed me!"...

Anyway, it was a great game and everybody played well. Oddwen especially, I never suspected her seriously - only fleeting moments of slight suspicion, that's all. She truly deserved the victory.

Oddwen, it took me a while to realise that the song was not the original one. It's brilliant! It made me laugh so much.

I saw you post about me possibly being an evil Ducky though ... does this experience make you fear me any less?
I love you back.

While I am sure you would be insulted if I felt I could trust you completely, I did at least accept the inverse of my "acts like a wolf, sounds like a wolf, looks like a wolf - chances are it is a wolf theory" ie if Kath acts like an innocent and votes like an innocent ..there is a chance that she may be an innocent rather than playing her customary blinder as a wolf.

I just wish I had picked up on Oddwen quicker ... misled by that voting record too long alas.

I suppose like Butturbur I can see through a wall given long enough and I was lucky that EW was factored out.

Just so frustrating that a very considered decision had the same outcome as if I had just left it too fate....

I suppose the die was even at least - We got Nogrod not Nerwen so I felt that getting Oddie was less probable (clearly Gwath-Nogrod) doesn't quite count.

Oh many thanks to Menel for his choice of death. Day one posts are hard to judge so the chance to go on a Pythonesque flight of fancy was glorious.

Ah, thanks Oddie, that makes me feel a wee bit better. I am in worthy company after all...

...but it doesn't make me feel good that Evisse, too, was lynched on Day 1, because that happened when the game was quite newly played THREE years ago!

EDIT: Goodness. Oddwen, you're a true genius. I've finally found the song that defines my life - er, death.

Notice also, that game III was also the other one in which I was a victorious wolf

What about me? :'( I was lynched for being too noisy in Rikae's game.

This was a pleasant game. I find it most unfortunate that I had no time to participate in it enough or even read what happened after I died. :/ That's what happens when one is unorganized.

Ah, apologies for that Volo - so...was SPM an actual Seer in that game? Or was that some other weird role name?

If there's anyone else I've missed, let me know.

SPaM was the nasty Cobbler (and I knew it!!), I was the Medium (Seer) and was lynched alongside Mac the Wolf (didn't know it!!). Grr!

Oh, by the way, Lhuna, who DID you dream of? It was driving me nuts for a while there, even after we caught Gwath.

Um, I was NOT caught. My fellows sacrificed me to a higher cause, and without their two votes, I probably would have lasted forever. So don't get all high and mighty.

Well, I knew you were a wolf, so I use caught. Although your packmates DID sacrifice you, so I'll give it to you

It was Agan.

But Gwath, I voted for you, and I was sure you're lycanthropic even after I died. So I still say I caught you.

Lhuna was very gifted indeed really becasue she provided so much correct info from one dream ... ie me and Agan innocent and that Gwath was as furry as they come...

Eek.

Congrats, wolves. You did good work, and especially it was a pleasure to meet Oddwen (awesome song, by the way).
But why did you choose the kills you did? Why me?

On the night I died there were two persons I was pretty sure were wolves - Nog and Gwath. So you can imagine how frustrating it felt to see myself dead in the morning...

Thanks for the game, everyone.

Hmmm...well Nogrod really wanted to kill you the first night, as you'd be "trusted" later on...I wanted to kill Legate the second night, but Nogrod overruled with Volo, 'cuz he'd be safer among more loud people...once I killed Noggie and was out from under the oppressive regime () I went for Lommy & Nerwen, the safe kills, because everyone else was attacking each other.

Do you know I never did get an answer for this .. . EW, why on earth did you vote for me that last Day? Excuse the apparent randomness of suddenly asking but it just occurred to me.

I think it was because Oddwen criticized my last post. If you're thinking that that doesn't make sense, I would agree, because a wolf would be more likely to use a highly suspicious innocent as a scapegoat instead of trying to buddy up with said innocent when the game is down to the wire. I hope this makes some sense. Also, it seemed to me that there was a good chance that one of the other two players had been dreamt of by the seer.
