I only just managed to get back on line to find whether we'd won or not!

Gwath and Kath, thanks for the magnificent last minute defence... I hated having to vote so early, knowing I wouldn't be able to return and defend myself.

Honestly, on Night One I didn't think we wolves had much chance of winning this. Luckily the surplus of Hunters and the (nearly) all-star cast ended up working for us.

Oh, and thanks for being so open minded, Sally...

Lol. Hush, you. In the end I would have killed you, so watch it.

Even if I thought it quite sad the game ended that soon, in retrospect I must say it was a good thing as I've been totally work-beaten the last two days and wouldn't have been able to mod anything in any "serious way"...

Looking at it from the brighter side: no one had a chance to get bored.


Putting up a bit experimental game is always challenging but it was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed this.

Thanks everyone!

Just a few specials...

Nienna & Lottie, you were just impressive in the end! As well as Gwath!

It was interesting - even if sad - to see Rune go so early for kind of "wrong reasons" - if one could say that. I mean, everyone who has played with him would say that he acted perfectly like Rune, meaning there was nothing suspicious or special in his behaviour and thence no reason to lynch him on Day1. He would have probably pulled the same act were he innocent.

It was nice to see both Valier and Roa back in action after a long break. Hoping to see you again sooner than later! It's always a pleasure to have you in a game.

And kudos to Lommy for a stupendous last-Day defence and getting the wolves spot-on! I couldn't believe it wasn't enough... I'm quite confident that if Nerwen had been lynched the innocents would have won the game.

Well, why not. I mean, "Greenie" could be a very good nickname for a ranger, imagine soldiers giving nicknames among themselves. And as for beards, well, we have seen the real Greenie with a moustache, so...

I was actually quite impressed with how well this game went, I was afraid that the balance of the game would be awful, as it is always a risk when you fundamentaly change the game. But to me, an outsider, it seemed to work rather well and I don't think it has to with me cheering for the wolves.

Yes. I'm also widely known for being almost as hairy as Rune, and as for my muscles, well, they can speak for themselves.
