Indeed. As much as I hate modfiring a wolf, I was okay with letting
Mira go since it was still early in the game and I didn't think it'd hurt her team much, plus they weren't doing all that bad considering they killed the spy right away. My main fear was that she might return the next day saying she found internet access after all only to find herself already dead. Well she never did return and while I came up with a solution, you guys were nice enough to take care of the situation for me.
The
Gwath situation happened the Night before
Kath's lynching which is when I found out through his mates why he wasn't around. It was a tough decision on what to do because it just didn't seem fair to have half the baddie team killed for not participating. And at the same time I didn't want to give him special exceptions. I was leaning towards modfiring
Gwath, but then at the end of the Day
Kath got lynched and
Mac looked like he was heading down the same road. I feared that if I modfired
Gwath it would mean three wolf deaths in three phases. Even though the innocents could've won that way, I don't think it'd be a particularly fun way to win. Mainly it was selfish reasons I kept him alive; I didn't want my game to end prematurely due to modfire. I actually wrote out an explanation for
Gwath's absence and not modfiring him, but I never posted it because I was afraid it might hint at roles one way or another. But I did finally have to explain the final Day since I didn't want you thinking I was being unfair; truly I was doing everything I could to keep it balanced. From what I was told, it sounded like
Gwath would return, but I wasn't actually certain. I'm thankful he did return because if he didn't my game probably would've ended with modfire.
I admit I was quite frustrated at the time since I felt any decision I made would make someone unhappy. It's a relief to know that the game stayed balanced after all (in my opinion, at least). Even in the final hour, I wasn't sure who would win which certainly kept things exciting.
