Hi, Sally. Next time you find someone "furry beyond furry", maybe you'll reconsider, hmmn?

You realize the evil McCaber planted that idea about me in your head, don't you?
No, actually I thought of it myself. I was just not in the right mind at the time. Seriously, apologies to all. I'm just not of the right brain (or any brain for that matter) while I'm sick, and once I made up my mind about stuff in my ill state it stuck that way. I thought Nerwen fuzzy all the way up to the deadline because it seriously looked like she was just holding her vote to let Gwath die.

And the same to you, Nerwen, the same to you. I have big teeth, do I? Double check next time you pick on someone's dental hygeine.

Poor Gwath. Quite a terrible game to get your start on. I assure you, the next will go better. Especially if we're wolfies.

Not to be rude, but how in the devil did anyone not see Rikae as a wolf? I thought it was obvious the entire game, even before Menel's demise, and that's why I wanted to get another wolfie out of the way. Then again....I suppose the wolfsies were the main "let's ignore her" conspirators. Right little nasties.

Everyone look at Gwath's new location. *howls with laughter*

Um, not really - Legate and McCaber pretty much went after me all day (curse them...)

My sympathy, though, for coming up with a logical plan and being lynched for it. If everyone could have been counted on to lynch me on day 4, another lynch on day 3 wouldn't have hurt you, indeed (well, lynching Nerwen wouldn't help, but still...) In the last game, remember, Nogrod killed me for coming up with a perfectly reasonable plan to catch either a Nog-or-Lommywolf. *shrug*

True, true. Suffice to say I'm pretty dern mad at myself. No skills this entire game, no skills.

P.S. Rikae, you're the devil.

Wait until you've been one.

Oh well, what can I say? I knew the game was going to end this way when I heard who the wolves were. Congratulations, you deserved your victory. Half the time I was siding with you, half the time cursing that you were too good to be caught.

When I died I was so certain that Mac was a wolf. And you can imagine my surprise when Lommy and I called Greenie after the end of the first day to ask who had died. Well, I guess it was better that I was lynched before I got to be of too much help for the wolves.

Thanks to Farael and Roa for the game.

Indeed. It's SO much more fun than being an ordo. Although, I have yet to be a gifted on here. I'd quite like to be that next, just to see how I'd do. But no matter. *still fuming at the fuzzie wuzzies*



Oh, and Agan, I had the same train of thought. Then when Mac died I about lost it, knowing for certain that Rikae was a wolf and that Mac had gotten majorly....well, majorly ripped off, to put it politely. I felt so bad for the poor guy.

Once again, I feel really bad about messing up the timing... but maybe it wouldn't have altered the outcome. You wolves had it all tied up so well that even if we'd lynched Legate or McCaber, Shasta would have likely got it the next day anyhow.

Unless Shasta had seen the light and also voted for Legate.

*shrugs* Well– he'd have had to change his mind about you and me being wolves together after one of us got eaten in the night. And maybe he'd have then concluded it was neither of us.

Trouble is, it looked like McCaber and Legate just couldn't both be wolves. I'd been getting an increasingly bad feeling about Legate of Dol Guldur, but I kept telling myself, "No, it has to be McCaber."

They must have been laughing their shaggy heads off at this:

After quite a long train of games I have to say that playing ordo is one of the best things that can happen to you. Well, being a cobbler kind of outranks it but after that it's my favourite being an ordo.

I had no time last I was online to thank Nerwen for her great game or to apologise to Sally... Let it be done now,

And Gwath, that was just amazing first game! I do hope to see you in the next ones! You really have talent and with playing a game or two you'll pick on the different specialities we others may come up with...

An enjoyable game this was!

And once more kudos to the wolves...

Thanks. I'll be practicing my hangman's knot. And making more silver bullets.

Well, that was interesting... wolves win it seems!

Now, there has been a little.... problem with the accomodations and my hotel has no Internet. I could write up a narrative right now, but I think it's better left until later when I actually have time to write something worth-while. I'll write a couple comments later, but right now I want to say

THANKS ROA

And good game to y'all (at least as far as I've read)

Apologize? For what? No harm done dear Noggie.

Hehe poor Noggie and clan, all brutally murdered. My first reaction was "Oh, crap." And my second was, "Genocide. How lovely."

Bring it on, Cabbie. Bring it on.

*giggles* I'm still bitter that my duck was attacked. How dare you all! A poor defenseless duck, and you almost killed her! I'm happy to report, however, that Emily is feeling much better.
Funny story, actually. My friend Emily actually got sick the day that I died in the game, which she told me yesterday afternoon when we were dining. It didn't occur to me until now, but perhaps there is dark magic about us. Or really snazzy mods.

By the way....for your amusement....here's a lovely artist rendering of my little Emily (the ducksie of course, not the person). Basically one of my colleagues got bored at work upon a lazy afternoon and drew....well, see for yourself....Sorry if it's really big.
