Congratulations to all involved for what, from the perspective of an interested bystander, was an extremely enjoyable game. Particular congrats to Firefoot for an excellent job as moderator.
But my greatest praise is reserved for
Eomer and
TORE, both of whom played a blinder in my opinion.
TORE, I think that your strategy worked extremely well. I never suspected you as the Cobbler (I had
Saureg pinned for that role), and it seems like no one else did either. It was a bold strategy, but it paid dividends in the end.
Eomer, you took my breath away with the boldness of some of your moves. After
Kitanna's death, I felt sure that it had been planned by the wolves so that they could use their role in bringing it about to justify their innocence. At first, I suspected
mormegil and
Kath (
), but with them dead I began to watch you closely. With
Oromin's death, I became pretty convinced that you were the remaining wolf, having taken the prime role in getting her lynched. It was a bold strategy, because it left you on your own, but it also meant that most of the remaining villagers were convinced of your innocence (with a little help from
TORE).
But what I really admired was the way that you dealt with the remaining shirriff, jumping in to vote for
Lhuna before anyone had time to organise a mass lynching (again, supported by
TORE). As the lone wolf, I thought that you might have difficulties with the shirriffs, since if you killed one at night that would leave a known innocent the next day and the risk of being caught in an organised mass lynching. I presume that you held off attacking the shirriffs until the numbers were down in order to minimise that risk. You handled it extremely well, but I would be interested to hear what your thoughts were on this.
So, well done to the "Wolf" team (yes, that includes you,
TORE), and thanks to all involved for some great entertainment.
My only complaint is that I missed enrolling by a day. It was a classic game, and I would love to have been involved.
