Of course! Life's all about priorities!

Funnily enough, I think one of the reasons I did so poorly last game was that a couple of pretty serious issues came up that had to be dealt with, and were very time-consuming. The fact that both of these (rather unusual events for my area) happened so close together might be another piece of the strange misfortune that seemed to haunt that game.

More ww-philosophy...

Heidegger: Everyone is "thrown-in-to-the-world" with no chance to dictate his/her role - and their views are controlled by others (das man), thence the bandwaggons everyone wishes to join with - to not take a stance or claim on their authentic "being-towards-death".

Nietzsche: "The Super Men" decide the views of others... the herd-mentality is the common denominator of the crowd not able to think for themselves.

Sartre: Everyone is tied by their liberty to choose... oh crap, it's the Mod who chooses that.

Tolkien: You must choose what to do with the role you have been given...

Marx & Engels: It's the unfair system where some have (knowledge) and some do not, that oppresses the ordos: The baddies want to keep the ordos disarrayed and to fight among themselves and not to make a revolution.

Kierkegaard: You just have to make a leap of faith to trust someone in a game.

Adam Smith: It tends to end up just fine for everyone when everyone just drives for their personal good.

Hegel: It tends to get right, whatever people do, because of the "cunningness of reason" itself.

I honestly think that just made my night!! Bahahahahaha!!!!!

I was too actually, would have been more hilarious then the above comment of Agan's

Now to the Wolves and Boro.....I.....hate....you......

Nog, I had you pinned from Day 2 when you had stated that I was not being Wolfish. You and I are NEVER on the same page, just lucky I was away for the better part of the Day. Zil, I never started thinking about a ZilWolf until after skip had been revealed as an innocent, and Eonwe, you slipped right through the cracks. I was actually positive that Greenie was one of the Wolves until you went and killed her

Boro, I know you had no part in my death (jerks lol), but you were still happy to see me go, don't lie.

Shasta, I am soooooooooo sorry that I had a part in your lynch. And when you turned up as the Seer, the first thing I did was look over your posts when I noticed the Nerwen thing and sent a message to our lovely Moddess and said that I hoped they would pick her and so redeem your death in someway....Well, it worked.....but they still won.....jerks.

My darling butterfly, I wish you and I could have played a little more together this game (jerks lol) as I was certain you were innocent as well.

Ozzy, amazingly well done for your first game!! Congratulations on making it to the end....well.....further then most of us do in our first game anyways.

Everyone else, well done. Legate, I was sooo certain of your guilt, but apparently I was away off the mark this game. Lottie, don't feel too bad, you'll make a come back...when I'm a Wolf again

.

Dear Moddess, thank you for a wonderful back to basics game!! It was nice after all of these experimental games we've been having, a nice change of scenery so to speak.

So I just had to act like a reasonable ordo when the milk has been already spilled...

I love you too Noggins. And Boro, I suppose I'll forgive you. *brick hits Boro in the face* Oopsie, it slipped.

Yes! I did hit one! But if they had gone for me I wouldn't have died, so that would have been a shame, but my Glirdy would have still been around, so that would have made it ok.

Heh, Greenie. So you would have been fine.

I actually had a bit of a plan that day. I was by the end convinced of Lottie's innocence (I know I voted her, I kept going back and forth the whole game, but by the end of the day when I had to choose my hunt I was sure she was good). So I hoped that the wolves would think I hunted her and would try to kill me, while I was actually hunting someone else (hopefully a wolf). But, uhm, she wasn't a wolf, so it would have failed.

nogorozilev (adjective), nogorozileve (adverb) having/displaying/acting with nogorozilwe
nogorozilevadun (agental noun) someone who nogorozilus, a nogorozilev person

That is fantastic.

"What. On. Earth. Is. That???" "Sunglasses, corset, and a tan. Does it ring a bell?" "Err... Boro?"
"What's this one? A ball?" "Yeah, a special kind of ball. A small shiny ball." "I have no idea!" "Think of people's real names..." "Err?" "Stupid, it's a pearl!" (Greenie's name means pearl in Finnish)
"That's easy. Loslote."
"Is it... Ozban?" (He's a Warrior Butterfly, and he can only blame himself for talking interesting stuff when he's drunk.)
"Umm... Who's that?" "See the pinky finger?" "Ah it's skip!" (For the record, all Swedish people are gay. This is fact.)
"I'm guessing that's Galadriel which makes her Nerwen."
"Legate."
"Hahaha is that Pitchwife?" "Yes, he says 'Ei be ze Deutsch.'"

All of that was amazing, my family thinks I've lost my mind because of all the laughing (new desktop background? I think so). Especially Nog, Boro and Legate's pics, and Glirdy being a rainbow (ahaha).

I also loved this.

Shasta: ...oops?

Really, really, really, really, really, really, really sorry.

Nog, Zil, Steve, and Boro: I think I hate you guys just a little bit.

Greenie: Well I got someone's role right, at least!

Lommy: Loved the narrations!

Agan: Loberly illustrations!

Everyone else: Good game...other than the losing bit, of course.

Shastanis Althreduin · 10-15-2010, 12:26 AM

I just won't ever clarify a rule ever again, is all, because it's apparently so suspicious. *shrug*

To the wolves - congrats.

To the innocents - can't say you didn't deserve it.

And yes, I dreamt Nerwen. Who else?
