TIG XCIII - Betrayal at Henneth Annûn (Game thread)

[Pomegranate]

thanks, everyone, it was definitely an enjoyable game and after all, everyone that trusted again and boro were right, and so were everyone who instinctly trusted rune, however suspicious it seemed to me at the time.

There is nothing suspicious about trusting me, I am made of gold and honey, and represents everything that is good in this world.

... and in my own person this time, if with a few nuts and bolts in my shinbone head that weren't there when the game began, and a few days too late.

Sorry for leaving you all like this, but I'm glad you all could play the game to its end and hope you enjoyed it. Thanks to Noggins for taking over at very short notice (I briefed him on the phone while waiting for the ambulance, being unable to reach my computer) and handling everything in my absence with his usual solid reliability! (I'm not yet decided about the narrations - I had some nice ideas, but I also like your wrapping up at the end. We'll see.)

Also thanks to my Beloved (aka Pitchwife-wife, aka Wifewife, aka Goldberry or whatever she'll call herself in the unlikely case that she'll ever get her own account) for keeping you all up to date.

Thanks for playing, everyone! It's a delight to read, now it's all over (and would of course have been even more enjoyable to read while it unfolded, but that's life). Rune, that was some darn cool seering, considering your initial feeling that I'd given you more prominence than you'd bargained for, and a nice demonstration that it's possible for the Seer to secure a village victory without ever dreaming a wolf! And well done rallying to your captain, Rangers, especially Greenlung and Shasta Damroduin - although the special provisions concerning your roles never became actual, you've both made me proud! BNs, you've had tough luck, but fought a good (or rather evil) fight; darkness will prevail another day!

Nate, great first game - and seeing how well you knew your way around the place from the start, I'm wondering whether I haven't actually met you (cue: Finlandmoot!).

Finally, I hope Max is in good health, and Glirdy's problem has worked out in the meantime.

Again, thanks for playing, everybody - it's been a pleasure, and we'll repeat it some day when I'm in better shape, OK?

One can always wish.

Welcome back Pitchie, and good to hear you're still alive and all! I vote yes for narrations if you feel you're up to it because the few you managed to write were among the best I've ever read!

Other than that - great game, everyone! Even with the bad luck all around (great to see you back, Pitch!) and the rather odd ending, it was a very enjoyable round. It's kind of a shame that me and Shasta's PM communication kind of screwed up most of the time, but it was a great consolation anyhow to have at least one person in the village you can trust implicitly.

I actually thought I already replied to you Pitch, but apparently it didn't post my message. So no, I wasn't in the Finlandmoot. However, being a good friend of Greenie's and knowing pretty much the rest of the Finns as well (though they probably are not aware they know me - except Agan, who talked me into this game), I've heard a lot about this place and about you guys. So Boro, even I know about your tanlines already, there's no use trying to hide them.

Is nothing sacred anymore?

Glad you're back and better Pitch.

As for Max, the vet thinks the seizure was caused by a potato skin lodged in his throat, since sometimes if food gets stuck in dogs throats it can cause a seizure. Stupid puppy...has to eat everything. I love him. Although now, he may need surgery since he also has a tendancy to race around all hyper...hurt his knee and has a slight tear in his doggy acl.
