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.

I hereby propose that Legate should change his name to

Legate of Dol Guldur.

Well, he should have - had his clock been working properly...

Yes, Rikae is just fantastic. She almost convinced even me

A lesson that every werewolf player learns early on is that just because somebody disagrees with you, it doesn't necessarily mean he's evil.

In this game, I bitterly learned that just because somebody agrees with you, it doesn't mean she's innocent.


Kudos to Rikae for fooling me entirely and for fooling the majority of the innocents even when a seer dream stood against her. Quite remarkable.

Kudos to Legate and McCaber for securing the victory. If only I would have had more time on the day I got lynched, I would have made a case against you, Legate, and maybe, just maybe, things would have ended differently. Anyway, great showing.

Kudos to Menel for his day-one wolf spotting.

Kudos to Gwathagor for a great debut.

Seconded.

And sorry to Aganzir for urging my misled day-one suspicion successfully.

No it wasn't! Nogrod only says that because he's a sneaky immortal super-wolf!
