So you actually did suspect Phantom?

I think the slice of luck he was afforded came about when the mob decided not to adopt my strategy -- or, for that matter, any strategy -- and to instead hang me on the "evidence" that I had developed a strategy...

Fordim: "I have a way of hunting down werewolves."

Werewolf: "He has a strategy for hunting down werewolves. He must be a werewolf."

Villagers: "Hang him! Hang him!"

Odd logic indeed!

Forgive us! Forgive us! Hopefully, if you play the next game, you will get your revenge. Also, is your signature curses and insults to us that voted for you in another language?

I would like to try out for the next game...

...Provided we go back to the original rules and someone explain to me how the time cycling works for the next round. I propose we follow the GMT as shown on the board if that's all right.

Nothing to forgive! I badly misplayed my opening gambit -- it was my bad luck that I accused a werewolf, as that meant I immediately brought down three wolves on my neck, which meant they only needed to fool...er...sway three villagers to their 'cause'.

The siggy is actually a bit of dialogue from Bladerunner rendered in Old English.

I think the truth is that the best course of action will always to be lynch Fea instantly. She is the Werewolves' greatest asset even if she doesn't happen to be a werewolf herself.......

Oh come now, Mith, that's just mean. The only thing that makes me an "asset" to the wolves is the fact that people can't distinguish between being outspoken and being guilty. Everyone knows that I'm outspoken... you'd be even more suspicious of me if I were to lay low and keep out of the discussion. I can't win either way, and that bites.
