As long as it's the other person's fault, and their insurance pays... In traffic, unlike in war, wounds in the back are more honourable.

Oh my god

(yes I am awake)

so we're really in the hands of the dead now

I don't think I will sleep.

Dead people,

I don't even know what to say.

Except what I already said to Pitch and Soriman.

Please think.

Well this is a crazy game for sure and seriously Morsul, well played.

Also I'm sorry about the car, that sucks. Glad that it sounds like you're okay though.

(Also language barriers and 1.30 am - I mean I do think my English is fluent but I had to google what the expression "rear ended" means since I don't know anything about cars - so sorry if you meant something else than your car getting bumped in the back with another car.)

You know what would be insane? The Dead were wrong, Soriman is the last wolf and dances on our graves. (Improbable, but I'd laugh my head off.)

Me too.

I mean I would defenestrate the whole dead thread first, but then I would just laugh.

And perhaps Soriman would deserve to win. I mean he had a little help from the dead but he could have still messed it up I guess.

(I mean I still think it's Morsul, not Soriman, but I'm having mild last minute hysteria. At least I don't think it's you, Pitch.)

Also Pitch, I guess I could be mad, but I kinda promised I wouldn't be, so I'm not, and apology accepted. Like I said, absolutely crazy game, and amazing whatever happens.

But I am very much hoping not to get lynched also because getting lynched as an innocent on the last Day always feels like a personal failure (even though I guess it's usually just a sign the wolves played well).

At least I can pat myself in the back for getting Wolfate lynched yesterDay - yes I'm taking the credit for that since Pitch voted in self-defense. #i tried

Or perhaps I should give the dead the credit for breaking the tie in the correct way, but I feel like they had extra help from the seer that we didn't, so it shouldn't count

Anyway, kinda fun that the buzz is in the dead thread now. We're just chilling here, it's out of our hands. I kinda enjoy it

Lynching an innocent on the last Day is a worse failure, I'd say.

Well yes, but at least I won't be in that position in this game.* Frankly it's a relief. I kinda hate living until the last Day and I don't know how it happens almost every single time. Like statistically unbelievably often.

Anyway whatever happens, this was a much better game for me than the previous one where I was the ranger, failed to protect anyone, and was absolutely manipulated by the wolves and the cobbler. It was terrible! Even if I came to my senses on the last Day, it was too late. This game has given me back my confidence that I'm at least not absolutely useless at this game.

(*Unless Soriman is the wolf and not Morsul.)

I’m seriously hoping it’s actually Sorimon just on principle for us all to be wrong is just Chefs Kiss

Do we have even numbers here? Let's just split our votes and lynch them both. Pitch and Soriman survive. Village wins.

Gah! It's not that simple when you know there are 2 wolves around who are capable of planning some last minute funny business. We're not all as cavalier with our votes as you are Morsul!
