Well, that was... disappointing. But even Gods strive in vain against the Downs' clock.

Anyway, applause to you wolves - all three of you, but especially to Lottie; that's dedication!

It does. That run should be made in to a movie. Oh wait, it has!

Nerwen
, you posted so little during my lifetime that I had no idea at all about you, but you looked innocent enough on D3 to my lurking ghost (although I must say I didn't believe your counter reveal on D4 for a minute, after what had gone before).
Kit
, I don't know what it was - usually your wolf-self manages to look quite innocent to me, but this time I felt from the start that there was something foul about you; maybe I'm finally developping a wolf radar after all these games, or maybe I was just lucky.
Lottie
, I had some early doubts about you, but Nog's argument against you looked so contrived I decided you were probably innocent.

By the way, you did the village a favour by killing me: if I'd lived, my prime suspects on D3 would have been Nog and Shasta...

Greeniemuna, you were one evil papa-fish of a cobbler! Once more you fooled me utterly (until your Bom vote, which reeked of evil, but I was dead by then). Good job!

Gifteds, you have no idea how much I cheered for you on the last two Days! You all managed to stay hidden while one ordo after the other bit the dust, and on D4 it was wonderful to watch you all come out together and build a wall of trust that defied all wolvish machinations.
sally, you were such a cool hunter, you would have deserved to get the last vote in!
G55, that was some awesome seering first time around! Dreaming a wolf on N1, staying cool and not giving yourself away is quite a feat, as I know from experience (I lost my nerves and came out on D1, but luckily it all worked out.)
Shasticle
, nice Rangering when it mattered! As mentioned above, I feared some evil collusion between you and Nog after we'd lynched Agan and actually took the pain to analyse you the Night I was killed, but the wolves spared me the disgrace of making a fool of myself. When I saw your reveal, I was like "duh - of course!" It all made perfect sense then.

Yeah, sorry 'bout that. I admit hair-splitting may reveal hidden fur sometimes. I still think hair-splitting was what you did with Lottie's "never mind", but maybe it was one of those cases where you get a certain feel from a post without being quite able to nail it down, which may result in arguments that look contrived but aren't, if you get what I mean.
I was furious at you when Agan turned out innocent, but you've already explained that, so I don't need to ask what you thought you were doing.
Anyway, this time I'm glad I backed off you on D2 and didn't live long enough to think worse of it. In an endgame like this one, it pays off to keep someone around who knows his job. No doctored cigarettes for Christmas.

Agan, that was too short a season, but I'm glad you forgave me for my hand in your death; and sorry I didn't live long enough to avenge you as promised, but I think it was for the better like this.

Zil - meh, being busy and distracted shouldn't have got you lynched, but crap happens in Werewolf. Sorry, mate.

Kath, pity you got killed so early, hope we'll get to play together again soon. And Bom, I hope we'll see you playing more (both playing more games and playing more)!

Crazy game, but I enjoyed it a lot. Thanks for modding, Boro!

Thanks. But that only happened because I wasn't there on Day1.

I better hope I don't play wolf again if the world is getting wise! I better start using a new tactic, crazy.

Nerwen, I smacked my head when I saw G55 was protected. I should have ignored you completely and sent the kill as Shasta.

Ah, well, I suggested killing G55 on Night Three, if you'll remember– so we're quits.

But we foolishly decided on Pitch in this village full of ordos.

Yes– I think the village should realise we wolves were getting just as frustrated as they were at everyone turning up ordo.

Thumbs up

Haha.

This game is most certainly going into my most memorable games category. Thanks, Boro!

Ditto! (not that I have that many games up my sleeve yet to talk... )

But thank you very much indeed Boro! It was really fun!
