??? Huh, strange. I thought that an Assassin and a Hunter like that and three Rangers to defend them is a bit too good. A wolf would have no reason to reveal themselves as a Gifted because the Gifted (except Rangers) had no problem revealing themselves. A Hunter had a protective aura without Rangers, ok, it was luck that Boromir and not me was the Hunter, but just too many proven innocent well protected Superordos.

I don't think that the wolves could have done much better unless they killed the Assassin quickly, but because they didn't even know about an Assassin ( ) they wouldn't know whom to search.

Just my thoughts. We should try the same game system again if you ask me, maybe making the Alpha immune to the Gifteds or something.

Not necessarily ..... what if we hadn't got Rune ? If we had lost we would have moaned about how the Assasin was a liability and the Informer an unfair advantange - gifteds are as gifteds does ....

I have modded 2 games ..in the first they had a full complement of gifteds (for the standard of the time) - and none of them got a chance to use their gifts.
Second game they only had the seer, who picked two wolves straight and the game was over in three days....

Haha, thanks Mith! I wish I had more of a chance to be "in-character," but I got lazy at first, and then I got too into the game itself to bother with it too much...

And apologies to morm. I really had no reason to lynch you, I just wanted to save myself for some reason. I guess I foolishly felt like I was important. At least I knew of one additional innocent, and I was a known innocent for Firefoot, but...other than that I think I gave my Rangerness more credit than it deserved then.

Oh, I forgot to say this again: Rikae, awesome avatar!

Thanks, same to you!

I wished Lal had kept hers a little longer; it's amusing to read the thread with the wolf avatars out there for all to see!
