Deadline. No more votes.

Gwathagor is Dead.

Wolf Victory!

I'm going to leave the final narration for Farael, since this is his game. I'm sure he has an idea of how he'd like to end it.

Well, it doesn't matter if we talk here a little bit, or should we not? There is no other thread to talk and I'm sure lots of us would like to discuss... of course, we may wait for the narration to learn how all the things really were... Do you have any idea when's Farael going to show up?

Sorry I'm late. If only my clocks worked once in a while, I could vote more often.

Legate, nicely played. Even now, I cannot believe that you are the evil wolf mastermind.

It probably doesn't matter, but I would have voted Gwath as well.

Nice game, everyone. Too bad to see it end like this.

Well done, fellow wolfies....
I was pretty sure we'd win when I got the pm telling me who my team was!
*high fives all around*

Gwath, amazing debut -- you really had me worried toward the end there that you would track down one of my comrades! I hope you'll become a WW regular.

Menel, now that you've told me when you dreamt of me, I know you caught me "fair and square" - hat's off to you! You were a formidable foe from the first day.

Macalaure, sorry about letting you be lynched and all, but, you know... all's fair in love and werewolf, etc.

By the way, watching everyone call me "brilliant" since my death has been very enjoyable. Keep the flattery coming...

More comments later -- I'm extremely busy at the moment, but I couldn't resist gloating a bit.

Gwath, don't be so hard on yourself. If I were in your shoes, I have no idea what I would have done.

I did enjoy being hypocritical with Gwath and Shasta, though. That was fun.

Wonderful, wasn't it? Well, McCobbler, I must say in the last few minutes I thought I'm going to kill you if you don't show up. But nicely done, everyone. This was a great game and I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did - it was definitely thrilling. I haven't experienced a game in such a way since... since my very first game. Is it a pure coincidence that in my first game, I was also... ahem, okay.

MwahaHAHAHA!

And indeed, I must say with such brilliant packmates it was wonderful to work together, and the game was the more interesting. Great job, fellows. And thanks also to all the other players and to the Mods, for making this game happen! Great, just great!

Nerwen, sorry about using you for a scapegoat... nothing personal, you know. I had to seize any opportunity I got (I set myself the goal on Day 3 to get as many innocents as possible to vote for someone else.)

It was loads of fun seeing everyone repeat "there must be a wolf among the Nerwen-voters"... *evil grin*

Congrats to the wolves! Well played indeed!

I knew beforehand that I was going to be away on Day3 and thence tried my best before it - and purposefully didn't mention it so that the wolves would kill me the Night before so that someone who was actually able to play that Day could play. Sadly the wolves turned sporty just that Night and killed LG...

And their sportsmanship didn't last longer...

But the fact that I was left alive that Night just made me quite sure Legate was the other remaining wolf. During my half an hour yesterDay I tried to read the thread, make a decision, think about the best exit to myself and whether to mention my suspicions in earnest. In the end I thought that if I do not mention Legate being suspicious to me he might let me live on this Day as well... Well, how wrong one can be?

Cool play Legate!

And Rikae was just phenomenal! Without Menel I would probably have bought her story! It really took some character to stick into the facts and ignore her wonderful act - and I can see it was hard to many innocents looking at the tallies that Day...

Outstanding play Rikae!

And McCaber really managed to hide in the shadows. I would have taken a closer look on him toDay had I been alive but I'm not sure if that would have helped...

So sad we lynched you Mac... but you must agree your posting in the beginning of Day2 was more than suspicious...

... and my daughters so brutally killed during the Nights... Oh, I will come back to you nassty werewolves the next time for it...

....dang it....



Can't really comment right now, as class is about to begin. You nasty little wolfsies earned your victory though. Legate, you evil fellow, you were EXCELLENT. You being a wolf didn't even occur to me until after I was dead, and even then I was questioning my suspicions. Extremely well done, and to you other wolves as well.

Back later to make some more comments.

Exactly - our original idea was to kill Nogrod that Night, of course, but then we decided not to do so. But on the other Night, we simply could not leave him alive anymore. You missed your train, Nogrod, in the expense of a boat, so to say.

Yes, Menel has done well - and btw I believe he dreamt of you on Night 1 and Rikae on Night 2, that Shasta-thing was a thing I made up: confusion sometimes is the greatest weapon.

Yes, I must say I wanted to apologize to you for wreaking such a heedless genocide upon your family...

Well, should we post some of our Nightly PMs? I'm not sure how much interesting it is, though... there was not much behind all the choices, and lots of what we did can be explained on the thread...

Seriously, you guys were magnificent, each in your own way.

And so were you, Gwath. That was a great first game.

If you want to know, I thought you were probably innocent, but I couldn't defend you properly with Shasta and Legate yelling that we must be wolves together.

And I thought McCaber was a wolf and that he'd be waiting around near the deadline as usual, so I was trying to hold my vote as late as possible– only I crossed with yours on Legate and I messed up the timing.

So, ultimately, this is all my fault.

In atonement, I offer myself up as the first course.
