Evil Triumphs!!!!

Many thanks for the help, McCaber. Obviously you clinched it. Kath had been onto me for awhile, so I feel I dodged a bullet there. And Gaur helped by courteously allowing himself to be modfired.

Agan, Fea, Nerwen, your advice and assistance was an enormous asset. I couldn't have asked for better accomplices for my first game.
TO EVIL!!!!

Wilwa, I appreciate all your hard work on this. I had a lot of fun.
Thanks to everyone. I'd love to play with you all again. You'll probably take me out the first Day next time, though.

Congrats on your first game Inziladun, when I found out who all the baddies were after dying, I wanted to just point out everything that looked suspicious...hindsight is a killer.

So...McCaber, how did you like that robber bridegroom role? hehe

Awesome idea for a game wilwa, too bad nasty wolves killed the lover pair so early.

McCaber · 06-01-2009, 10:08 AM

Haha! Once again the McCobbler stands victorious!

Sorry, Nerwen. I totally failed to pick up on you. Good job being so obviously not a wolf you fooled your ally.

That final Day was tense. I had a hard time finding the wolf, but when Kath voted Gaur I could tell she was on the level. Inzil, nicely done. I was worried about Gaur showing up late, though. I'd have to pull a TORE (for all you students on WW history) on that last Day.

And I found one of the three princesses. But Sally escaped me barely, and I lynched Mith by accident. So at the end all three were dead and I made it through. I count that a bonus victory.

I was really hoping that would happen actually, haha.

Boromir88 · 06-01-2009, 10:40 AM

Oh and Mira, asking you if you had anything you were forgetting before going to bed was completely accidental. I had no idea you had the looking glass.

I looked at my role and it said I was supposed to be getting my princesses guesses, but going late into Day 1 I hadn't received anything. So, I PMed wilwa and asked if I would get them, and I found out my lover was slacking (wilwa's words sally, not mine

). So, I thought my princess was either Mira, Fea, Lari, or sally based on activity. And my question for Mira was to see if she was my princess then she should send in her guess before going to bed.

Which Fea pegged down perfectly of course, but I guess I was being that obvious...

They didn't even give us a chance Sally, but at least you were saved from McCaber.

Thanks, Boro. We thought it was a good idea to take you out quickly.

See? That voting mistake wasn't such a big deal after all. It really helped to be able to observe you, Agan, and Fea and get general ideas from that.

I was a bit worried about Gaur myself. I saw him as a wild card after phantom was gone. Once all the reveals were in, I was quite sure you had to be the RB, and you certainly came through.

Indeed. Look up WWVII (or T-i-G as it was known back then) here. It was recommended to me as one of the best games ever played when I started around game 40.

I still hold it up as an example of how to play a cobbler. Although I may have just spoiled it by mentioning names.

Aganzir · 06-01-2009, 11:53 AM

Well done, darlings! I loved being a wolf with you, and especially you Inzil did a great job.

Plus Cab of course (how come I'm always a wolf when you're the cobbler?).
But if only we had checked Nienna instead of Lommy on night 1 (in the end it was pretty much down between those two)!

Izzy (and Mira), you had me so frustrated but ah well - and maybe it was good I died, I would've been terribly busy later. Good work.

Thanks for the game, wilwa - it was great.

Yes... pity he had to try and lynch me first, though!

In case anyone is interested my choices for Rumpelstiltskin were:

Boro at the beginning of Day 2 and

Lari
Sally
Gaucrist
Gwath

in a desperate panic as the noose tightened.

I had crossed out Issy from my short list (I was convinced she was evil because she was (to my mind) unfair in her criticism of me) if I had kept her I would have got another guess but I don't think it would have been Aganzir at that point. I went for quieter ones.

I really did think this would be hard for the village which is why I was hoping you wouldn't lynch me (never wrongfully lynched record broken at last). Once I quoted Morwen I felt sure the RB would pin me so I was doomed anyway sinceI could not be protected from him, so I obviously thought lynching me was not teh best course but since I was completely wrong about Shasta and Issy and indeed everybody! lynching me was clearly the way to go

Anyway very clever concept and I am sorry I didn't get to play longer.
