Don't look at me– I wasn't there.

–Kudos to Sally and Eomer for picking Mith so early. I really don't know how you did it! I swear she wasn't acting suspicious.

–By the way, Eomer, we wolves noticed your Seer-act on Day One. We just saw through it. That's why you weren't killed.

Heh. No, I blame it all on you.



By the way, Boro, major kudos for making people believe you were the ranger. That whole ordeal just made my day. *chuckles*

And kudos for Shasta himself for the amazing Kath save and his breadcrumb posts. (I about died when I saw it.)


Obviously, everyone did really well, but let's see....off the top of my head....

Kit, I didn't have any idea you were the last wolf. Very sneakily done.

Agan....erm, nice job getting lynched the last day? No, you did really well, just a bit of a rough day there toward the last. It happens.

Nerwen, I'm really sorry you had to drop out, because you were doing well, and it would have been great for you to stay on the team. Sadly, it wasn't meant to be.

Eomer did a fantastic job as well, and when I saw your name on the list of the dead I was scared for a bit that you'd caught one of my "friends" (my internet wouldn't load the page right) and you were amazing in general.

And why did I keep thinking Form was a wolf? Probably because I pretty much suck at this. Heh. Well, I have something to base him off of for next game, and you were excellent even if I did try to get you killed a lot. (I couldn't get the Formwolf image out of my head, even though I was almost positive he wasn't....I would have been quite angry with myself had I gotten him lynched and he turned out to indeed be lupine)

Brinn, excellent modding. Fantastic. The narrations made me giggle a lot and the game idea was amazing. Very nice.

Oh, and Sixth. Sorry, buddy, you understand. I really wanted you to stick around, but you were easy enough to lynch and I didn't want to risk killing Nerwen on the off chance (which occured, mind you) that she was a wolf. Pleasure sort of playing with you. Maybe next game you can actually stay alive long enough to have some fun.

Obviously, you were all fantastic, but I should probably toddle off and do something productive. Nicely done everyone (I'll try to get around to repping you all eventually) and good game! *cough* Go wolves! *cough*

Yeah. :-D

Ha! Shouldn't it be me to apologize? I didn't actually choose my tactics of playing - it just happened. And, well, voting... Let's say this wasn't one of my best games. What's wrong with me when lynching Mith has been ok for me all day but just before the deadline I change my mind?

Seconded.

I'm not sure if I would have catched Nerwen if not for that Agan/Nilp/Form brawl. Day 1 was a day I decided to be a difficult person (that happens occasionally) and just kept questioning about things that were seemingly minor at first glance. And then I got the feeling that I might be right after all.

When someone mentioned Mith hadn't said she's innocent, I grew wary of her. I was pretty confident either she or Nog was a wolf - first I agreed with her about Nog, but then started suspecting her. However, she just managed to look quite innocent to me on that last day...

I will never ever want to play with Boro again! That was nasty. I was annoyed when no one else seemed to find Nerwen worth a vote, and was completely ready to believe in your innocence when you considered voting for her.
Though I'm quite happy that I believed Shasta rather than you when you both claimed to be the ranger... Unfortunately it was only after the day ending when Shasta had already been lynched.

Kitanna, like I said on day 8 (without thinking that might really be the case), you deserve to win. I was pretty sure of your guilt since day 1 (he-he), but unfortunately for me, you started looking more innocent when the number of the villagers reduced. And then I was so sure about Rikae that I didn't even consider voting for you.

Also, great job Shasta. If it is of any comfort, I can tell I know how it feels to first battle with the hunter and then get lynched... :-D I didn't get your hints, but I remembered you saying Kath looked honest and Nog seizing on it. When I checked it, I realised you were rather talking about her vote, but there was something that gave the impression of knowing better. I thought you could also be a wolf, but you really looked too innocent for that. Only when people really started suspecting you did I become unsure.

Last but not least, thanks so much Brinn! The narrations were funny, and the idea of the game turned out well (I remember you sitting on Nogrod's sofa what feels like a long time ago and telling us about your plans).

Ah but Eomer, you don't realise that I knew you were the hunter immediately which is why you weren't killed until after I died. You were far too unsubtle to be the seer. You were more or less saying "Kill me and I'll kill Mith" - and you kept on wondering why we didn't. I am not so green as cabbage looking.

And yesI picked Durelin but it was only for Kit's sake that I didn't tell you to kill Nogrod.

As for my Packmates - full marks to Nerwen for steadying my nerves on night one - I thought we might end up doing a Thelma and Louise the next day!!!

Boro is lucky a, that he is one of the few people on the planet who can tell me to relax when I am stressed out and not get his head ripped off - and with him incommunicado and Nerwen on her way out it was a bit fraught. I was a very lonely wolf that weekend. So the attempt on Kath was my idea. It wasn't such a backfire as it seemed in the time - and the reasons I stated openly, though of course that didn't stop you lot continuing to speculate!!b, that we won since I thought it was an unnecessary risk And besides confessing is MY trick.

By the way all of you who went "Mith hasn't said she is innocent yet so she's a wolf - well Ihad resolved I wouldn't do that spontaneaously before I got my role. But if I had been asked directly while online I would have surely lied. You lazy blighters will have to make up your own minds... I would have made more of a defence but I had told Boromir to do what he had to do to make himself look good from the beginning as once Nerwen and I had attracted suspicion he had the best chance of going the distance. Another reason why I rode the storm of Eomer and didn't really defend myself against Nogrod. I couldn't decide how to do it without incriminating Kit who had done such a good hatchet job. And I hoped that Nogrod's certainty might incriminate him. As Boro said, my mantra was "only wolves are certain". The fact that I was only lynched by a coin toss has given me a lot of confidence in my wolvish abilities so be afraid , be very afraid. After all there is a chance I might get to be a wolf when I don't have PMT ... when the difference between me and a werewolf is negligible anyway

Durelin - I can't believe you didn't dream of me - my hunch you were the seer was based on your resolute suspicion of me - but I think you were suggested originally because you fell into the very dangerous but so far quiet category.

As for Kitanna - fantastic.... I should point out that even with the extra day we weren't able to discuss as such before she started. I am very grateful that Brinn and the rest of you gave her to us especially since we hadn't particularly wanted a new wolf at the time! I had felt it might be as incriminating as helpful and said it was up to Boro (because he was likeliest to survive) and he had said we would go it alone! However Kitanna would have been my first choice if we had been given the choice with the state of play as it was and we were truly blessed.

Brinn - I loved my death scene - I was summarily executed in my first game and so always particularly appreciate a good death. Now can I have my coat back?

Special thanks to Sally - you were great and it so nearly worked - I spat feathers when my furry friends killed you

Oh and I must apologise to Brinniel for being such a stroppy, ungrateful wolf. It isn' t hard to distinguish between a unhappy Mithalwen and a ray of sunshine and I really am a grumpy old woman a lot of the time now
