This was probably the first game ever I was disappointed when I got to know I was a wolf...

For I had decided that I would do my best to encourage people to post more and to get others more involved with both my points and by exemplifying it with my own posting... I knew I took a risk then when I realised I was a wolf but still decided to go on. You Eomer and Caílin had keen eyes there and I do appreciate your thinking skills - even if what you thought was not exactly what I was doing in the first place. You still brought me back to believe once again that figuring things out can be succesfull - how wrong the initial suppositions might be.

The problem for me was that I would probably had acted the same way had I been an innocent. Only in that case I could have told you afterwards "what I told you!".

I mean the easiest way to be a baddie is to be a "natural self" and that I was for the most of the time.

Yes, I was a bit disappointed, not the least when I read the actions leading to my death afterwards which were mostly due to the non-voting of such a many people (some of the non-voters might have voted for me as well, sure, I'm not denying that possibility: but if I could have stayed awake later to make more points & if more people would have been around to vote... well, one can always say if...)

It was a pity we never had a chance to plot with even a one post with Brinniel. It would have been nice. Sadly we started with a Day-phase and that was it. No contact whatsoever. Your stand-alone fight was impressive Brinn!

Congrats to Shasta for a game well constructed and succesfully ran! Unlike Eomer I do like the suspension with the roles even if I tend to agree that a role so different that leads to death only after a turn or two should be mentioned beforehand.

Congrats and thanks to both Caílin and Eomer for playing with us in your amusing way. It's a pleasure to play with you guys - even if you pick me up...

Thanks to Sauce for being the entertaining player you are - and to Lommy as well.

And I have to bow to Rikae even if I just now don't feel the urgency of it. I mean you've been the one who has called for open play game after game but somehow I think your victory was now based more on being silent and acting only on strategic moments than on open play. That's a perfectly justified tactics but... I'll be continuing my aimless and resultless crusade for the open play notwithstanding.

And yes Kath, I'll raise my hat to you as well. So much as you tried to thwart the open reasons for voting me on Day1 - I mean I was quite sure you were the independent baddie alongside myself & Brinn which I just thought there had to be - you were right in the end even if you didn't dare to state your reasons... One makes it right every now and then.

And kudos to Izzy for seeing that Kath never made her reasons open! Well picked!
