Thanks! That was the meaning behind the act... I was kind of ovr-playing it as it looked like it was something we needed and for the principle I had to keep the act as we wwere not sure of the lovers' intentions... and it was fun to overdo it! Had it been tighter I would probably been a bit less "obvious".

It worked anyway!

And my apologies to you Pitch for us to kill you at that stage, but you were one who could have been able to make right deductions but as you were away you had not said anything - so a perfect kill for us...

Heh, that's werewolf.

Absolutely! But the funny thing is that after Roa called for a "strong player" to be killed - favouring Spm - I was actually the one who said we should pick you instead, if we had to do that.

I mean I'm still to that old-fashioned "let the threathening people live" -school who is more for a real struggle against an easy win (which of course is never free or easy whatever the set-up is). So I was absolutely against killing Saucie as it would have been also plain unfair him being killed after the first Day of the game second time in a row after a long pause thus making him not able to participate the actual game at all. So I just half-jokingly said we should pick Boro instead as he has been such a pain in the... if we were taking down a "loudmouth" who could be a problem.

And after waking up to a new Day I realised Brinn and Roa had decided going after you (Brinn agreeing with my reasons to leave Spm live).

It looks like me and Brinn are the only remaining romantics of this game...

It's not that being killed/lynched early = you played bad, a lot of it depends not only on who is playing, but what roles they have.

Exactly. And also some people tend to get killed early on by either side - just to be sure... or dreamt of by the seer early on... Which is kind of a bad thing if you were one of those, but with which one has to live with.

You were actually crucial to our win - whether you wanted it to happen that way or not... Whatever your reasons to post that little or say what you did in the few posts you made aided us as a team a long way! So kudos for that!

Hey, no need to apologize - I would have done the same. In a way, I take it as a compliment.
Which reminds me, I forgot to compliment and thank Mira and Nienna for their modding - how rude of me! Great theme, a mix of roles that guaranteed an interesting and surprising game, and very well handled (never mind the narrations). Thank you both!

Evidently Nog was not around for the end of the game. Have you not seen Fea and SPAM?

Why do you call him SPAM instead of SPM?

That's a very good question. Ask another.

Actually, I'm not entirely sure. I saw it somewhere, and thought it was funny, so it just became a habit...I can call him SPM if that's better...

When Sauce first joined he was a a notorious spammer, filling threads up with complete falsities like how half the dwarves of Bilbo's company were females. It got so bad the powers that be temporarily banned him, but have allowed him to come back as long as he takes the Moderator of Spam job that opened up. That is he has to spend his whole life on the forum dedicated deleting and banning other spammers...kind of an ironic punishment.

We like vowels. And the SPM options were Spam, Spem, Spim, Spom, and Spum.

And either he could be canned ham or gibberish.
