The Midsummer Maulings (WW5) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

At first, I scoffed at Gil's explanation of his resuscitation, but after a few thoughts, he would only say that if in fact no role has been passed to him. And perhaps he, unlike me, learns his lesson well.

Now yesterday, I was disappointed at not being able to participate, but I'm glad we got a wolf. I also had an idea yesterday not unlike Firefoot's: the guy might be a werewolf trying to secure innocence with his attack. Notice the way he jumped on morm after Firefoot had already denounced him.

I agree with Oro here: either Kath or the guy is a wolf, but not both. Unless they're pulling the greatest act I have ever seen. But I'm not sure of that.

Hmmm . . . the tough part here is we have equal evidence for the guy's guilt (q.v.) and Kath's morpholupism (hehe, I just made a word up.) Decisions, decisions . . .

He's more suspicious to me.

Well you all know my reasons so my vote goes to

++TGWBS

++Kath

We're at the stage where, if you kill me, the entire game is lost. As I am garnering more votes, I will post openly.

The three remaining wolves are: Kath, Nilp, Feanor. I am almost certain of this.

Unfortunately, it means the only innocent to have voted for me thus far is Oro, who cannot return and change her vote.

There is therefore no point in, once again, pointing to my extremely adequate response to Firefoot's questioning, which left her satisfied.

There is no point in pointing out Kath's slip in accusing me of piggybacking off Firefoot yesterday, then killing her so she could accuse me of piggybacking off an innocent.

The wolves' job is then complete.

How coincidental. Somebody goes from top suspect to not-mentioned over a Night without so much as an explanation.

I have been pointing out since the beginning of Day 3, when durelin my main suspect was proven innocent, that the entire think is a set up, with strong evidence. It is ignored.

She seems to discount the fact that we need to kill a werewolf. This strikes me as too whimsical.

Using evidence that has already been explained and disproved.

Again, the link leads to evidence that was satisfactorily disproved.

There you go. Once I'm dead, expect those three to jump on you.

Cunning wolves...

Four votes for me and the 24hr time limit is up.

Twilight neared and again although the decision was not unanimous it was sufficient to put the noose around the neck of the guy who would be Scoobert. Perhaps his appearance had been against him, the villagers unable to distinguish between the canine and the lupine. Those who condemned him cheered as his body fell but as it twitched and jerked on the rope but as it did so the cheers started to sound more like howls. The villages had signed their own death warrant when they palced the noose around his neck.

Holbytlass and Nilpaurion Felaguns stood back to back as Gil Galad, the hunter could do nothing against such odds. The trio of wolves they had known as, Feanor of the Peredhil, Kath and Orominuialwen circled quickly before there was a brief but violent flurry of fur and blood.

Good game all! Especially I would like to Congratulate my fellow wolves on such a wonderfully played game.
