Dagnabbit! That's all I have to say. We got played, villagers, we got played.

Unfortunately, although I figured I might lure the wolves out of their snazzy little holes, the only ones who were confused by my actions were the other ordos. Sorry about that loves.


And wolves....curse you all, you did SO well! Congratulations on a definitely well-earned victory!

I'm going to comment more later, but this one thing cannot be left uncontested.

It was not a slip!

I was responding to Volo, expecting him to be after me this day. "Even if you're convinced of my guilt, then don't forget there's two more you shouldn't forget". The statement was for Volo on the assumption that he was sure I'm a wolf, putting myself into his position.

Now you know.

Of course it was not a slip. But you see, Mac, the innocents just wanted to find at least some flaw from you (though it would make them look even more stupid). Surely you are not going to take at least this little pleasure from them (did I say "pleasure"? )

Absolutely hilarious Nogrod & wolves! It was a beautiful game. Actually, everyone played wonderfully.

And you did so well in killing me wolves. Other than that I was considered innocent by almost everybody, I really was sure of Fea's guilt after Menel's death (I considered even giving her an unsigned rep saying something like "I KNOW you're a wolf: you've doing it all too well but I can see right through you, love" but decided against it as I thought she might realise it was me and it would be even more certain that I'd die) and I would certainly have attacked her on the last Day.

I also had a strong bad feeling that either Agan or Volo or both are wolves. I was more suspicious of Agan so I think I would have taken at least a second look on her if I had been alive.

It's just my luck, after being so wrong about everything (except Greenie) I start being right about things the Night I die.

And Mac... I never seriously suspected him. Hats off (since mine remains uneaten ) to him.

Anyway, you were way too evil, wolvsies. You all managed to either convince me of your innocence or slip under my radar for a long time, except Greenie, who did awesome job at making morm look guilty. I knew she'd fool me completely in this game, and when I realised she's most probably a wolf and I can see through her lies, I dropped precaution and thought she couldn't possibly fool me at all then.

Werewolf is so good for me. Every time I think I'm actually quite good at it, I manage to get my suspicions so wrong it's hardly possible. Then I'm relatively good for a few games and when I start trusting myself again and am totally wrong again. This game really teaches me humility... *would add smiley if hadn't passed the limit*

First I have to bow before my co-wolves. 5 days and nights (or 2 resp.) is far too little time to plot which such excellent and admirable hobbits.

Honestly, it was truly great to sit back most of the times and just watch the village lynch each other. We rarely ever actively led you astray, except Aganzir on the last day.

But those last 15 minutes.....

When I understood Shasta and Volo wrong, it was the guilty conscience which got hold of me. I made it a very bad reason for me to hold back my vote. Then they told me I misunderstood them. Dammit! Did they notice how stupid I just acted? Were they confused by my sudden defensiveness? No? Phew. Now, they can't seriously consider voting Brinniel all of a sudden. It's not going to happen. Surely they will all vote Kuru. There'll be no double lynch. We're not going to make it! I have to vote Kuru now, I'll look terribly wolvish the next day if I don't. We're not going to make it. Volo voted Brinniel! I can't believe it! Now Aganzir will follow him. We can make it! We can make it! What are Shasta and Miggy going to do? Brinniel voted Kuru. Yeah, I expected that. I should post something, I'm too silent. Miggy would vote Brinn? We really can make it. Shasta voted Brinn! Good, good, good. 3 minutes. I should post something, I'll look so horribly suspicious tomorrow. Aganzir voted. Good. Now, Miggy what will you do? 2 minutes. What are you going to do, Miggy? The deadline, the deadline, the deadline. He's not going to vote at all. They'll lynch me tomorrow for this! I have to vote! "What are you doing??"* Dammit, what if I accidently vote crossing with Nog's deadline? I can't wait! I have to vote! He voted Kuru!!! Quick! Quick! ++Brinniel pheewwwww......

...those were several months off my life expectation.

*I mistyped those few words several times


Kudos to all the players! You made this game a fun game!

And thank you, Nogrod, our mod.

Yes, I am.


And, by the way, how do hobbits end up eating their socks?

That night... You can see it in the wolf chat. I wanted to kill you because you were the only person who stood a chance of drawing enough negative attention to me to be dangerous. But I didn't want it to look like I'd killed you for suspecting me. And then Agan was kind enough to point out that you were basically a free kill and I shouldn't worry.

Mac, hilarious.

I was quite similar:

Oh god, I had to vote, I'm sorry guys I had to vote she pointed out the flaw I was hoping they wouldn't notice and I had to vote even though we agreed Agan should vote first please don't let this mess things up I had to vote for Kuru, Kuru's going to kick it and they're going to find one of us in the morning OH MY GOD they believe Agan about Brinn HAHAHAHAHA omigod we might, wait, maybe omigod! They're voting for Brinniel! Worst decision ever! They're going to cross post! Mac, we need you! Wait, it's tied again don't vote don't vote AHHH Mac vote vote vote one more vote and we win and if we don't win we all die tomorrow omigod HE VOTED OMIGOD WE WON WE WON WE WON.

Yep. It was pretty amusing, if I do say so myself. I was banging on my desk watching the screen like my will alone could win the game...

And I did want to apologize a little to morm... again... He took it quite well, that I put such careful work into making nobody trust him ever again. I suppose the best consolation is that, again, I won't be trusted.

Well, I can tell I was maybe the most surprised here when I realised people actually believed my Brinniel case. I didn't really imagine I could get her lynched if I posted a case against her half an hour before the deadline... But it worked. I was laughing aloud when people started voting her.

My last minutes were pretty much the same as Mac and Fea's. I had thought I wouldn't actively contribute to a double lynch unless it was sure we could make it, but then, all of a sudden, it was possible. I had to count the votes twice before voting for Brinniel... and after that. It was perfect. This is why I love being a wolf.

Greenie and I actually attacked Lommy during Night 5 in real life. And guess what she said when we were biting and clawing her: "Stop that! You are being annoying!"

Btw Kath, who did you dream of? If you already told it, I must have missed it. And who did morm protect?

Night 2 ~ Greenie (wolf)
Night 3 ~ morm (Ranger)

I was right! I was right! I was right! Thank you, Kath, you made my day. Not that it was too difficult to decipher, but I'm glad I was right about something...

And those wolf PMs were just hilarious, the only thing I'm concerned about is Nogrod's low modding ethics...
