Garin, just in highschool, not in England--I'm from Massachusetts. It's fun!
So New England. The HS is all I need to hear. I'm not prepared for the jail house.
To The Only Real Estel I know I broke no rules I was just asking a friend for advice. I am against cheating and it is all too obvious that the advice failed, I won't turn to him/her again in the next match. As much as I wanted to I never cheated.
Farael Was from me, good play!

Well, thank you, Garin, for the compliment, although I'm glad to see that you didn't get me lynched that second day.

I must say that I'm rather concerned about your asking for advice from outside the game. I know that the him/her(I'm pretty sure this him/her is morm, as that's who referred you to the Barrowdowns, if I recall correctly.) wasn't in the game, but it still seems unfair that you used outside help. I don't know that it's actually against the rules, but, in my mind at least, it violates the spirit of the game. That being that each has to rely on himself to figure stuff out, except the wolves, who want to be a team and get nobody to figure anything out. Asking someone for advice just seems to take that 'alone', or for werewolves: 'alone with two', element out of the game.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I'd advise against asking 'outsiders' (outside the game) for help.

If you had all just listened to me...

Oh well, wonderful game everyone. I had a great time playing. And Formendacil - your modding was absolutely brilliant. I was so sure we were going to win, but then Naria had to leave. Congrats, Malkatoj, I suppose.

Edit: I was going to rep you all, but it seems I've been too generous as of late. Uh yeah - but it's coming still. I hope. If I don't forget.

I've said this before, and I'll say it again...this is all YOUR fault!

This has to be the most mind-draining game I've ever been in, for the most part because I was unlucky enough to be the poor revised Seer. And...*sigh* Whatever. *throws hands up*

I would love to be playing with when you when I finally become a wolf, Rune.

But thanks for all that! You know, for some time I thought I would be going down in Werewolf history as the first ever Seer to be lynched...sometimes I just don't know when I'm becoming more suspicious than I intend to be.

I'm really so sorry, dear Kuru...but really, it's for the best that you died. I'm really wondering why in the world the werewolves didn't kill you first, as I expected they would.

And that's why I chose not to dream of you, even if I knew it's utterly necessary to know which side you are on. I expected you would be killed right away, and I didn't want to waste a certain dream for someone who would probably not last the game. But think about it, if I chose to dream of you, and you were revealed to me as an innocent, and I revealed your innocence when I declared myself, and the werewolves got to you right after that...well, let's not think about it shall we?

And really, it was so hard for me building a case against you. But at that point I just thought that I would feel a lot better if you're lynched, whether you were a wolf or not.

I believe I should be the one saying that.

You have no idea how much I was wishing that you were still alive after I revealed myself! You were the only innocent I could lay a charge on to look after the village in my absence, because Alcarillo was, well, not around much. I wanted to trust Cailin because for some reason I felt safe with her around, but she was not a proven innocent.

Consider it an honor, if you will, that you were among my first choices for the dream. And in my opinion, you are one of the best players I've ever played with. *curtsies*

It was unfortunate that one of her known innocents was our ranger... and that we lynched our apprentice the following day!!
That was a good call, Farael (and Kuru and Naria). I'm so glad I listened to you, even if it didn't do much. *rolls eyes*

If you turned out to be a wolf, Farael, I would have killed myself...I had you pegged as an innocent all throughout the game! It was wonderful playing with you again.

I still can't believe you weren't lynched right away. And that leads me to...

Cailin! What was that suicide all about?!

I really had good reasons for killing me, Lhun!

I had little choice and as it seems nothing would have saved me, for Naria did not even show up. I knew the moment Farael attacked me that he was an innocent. I couldn't have voted for him and voting for Malkatoj wouldn't have saved me anymore, even though I might have convinced Naria to join me.

If then Farael was lynched and found innocent, as I knew he was, everyone would have been going for me.

And finally I knew there was a reasonable chance Naria might be hunting me anyway since she has suspected me from Day 1. I was trying to do what was in the villagers best interest - getting me out of the way, convince them of Farael's innocence and Malkatoj's guilt. I knew they would not blindly follow me anymore if I wasn't a proven innocent.

Unfortunately, Naria fled town and we lost anyway. But I still think it's the only time I made the right decision during this game.

Besides, I didn't really want to live anymore after you died.

I don't believe I ever specified who the Tailless Wolf was. My intention was to leave the last wolf up with that dubious honour- that having turned out to be Malkatoj, and I've edited my last narration with an extra line accordingly.

However, if I ever stated that Amanaduial was the tailless wolf... then I guess there will just be two conflicting versions, ala Tolkien. Which one do YOU think is canonical?

Well, a tailless wolf repped me, and it wasn't malka...

I guess I'll believe the werewolves' version more than yours.

Awww...

I didn't want to live when Menel died, either. Probably because I knew I'm next.

Call me self-centered or whatever, but what did you guys think about my sudden outburst of Lhunacy? I terribly enjoyed that, not to mention it served its intended purpose. Well, I think.

What purpose - convincing us all you were mentally unstable? Cause yeah, then it did serve.

It actually made me believe you were innocent. And Nilp, too.

I feel a debate coming on. Can I say Garin?
