I guess that the beauty of games like this, and especially of this particular game, is that you get to watch brilliant minds at work, analysing everything with the clarity of reason and common sense and coming to the wrong conclusion.

Many of you were unintentionally hilarious in your misplaced certainty.

Especially Kuruharan.

Yes yes it's so easy to laugh at us blind villagers accuse each other while you have omnipotence in the situation. Reading some non-players say "Oh I have my thoughts" or "I know who I would be going for" I just want to scream "AHHHHHH!!!" It's so much more difficult when you're in the game and trying to make sense of anything let alone everything said. I think it's analogous to a game show--so easy for the viewers at home but difficult when you're actually up on stage.

I can talk the talk but........

"Ainaserkewen is definitely a werewolf. It's so obvious." - (yours truly).

One vivid memory I have is gasping in horror when I realised that Evisse was going to be killed.

You play long enough and it will happen to you. The villagers from this time will all be watching you now.

You weren't the only one.

In the future, now that you and I have proved that one can go about willy-nilly hanging innocents left and right and get away with it, everyone is going to have to be watching for werewolves trying to pull that trick.

I at least wanted to keep you alive as long as possible...the way I saw it after Evisse's death you were the only person standing between me and the gallows...so long as you were alive and suspicious why would anyone look to me, once you died and were proven innocent who would get the blame for our seer's death? Me. (Hence my seemingly random vote for Phantom)

That's a major reason why our simple strategy worked so well this time around. We wolves were so 'laid back' in a village of analitical over-thinking (I don't mean this in any sort of offensive manner).

Even if we had lost, I was very proud of us being able to stump the village for awhile.

Good Grief!! See, see, it is just coincidence that we post at the same time!!
