Oh, flub it all, I see no one else wants to cast the first vote in that direction, either, so I'm going to do it and hope the wolves don't come for me next.

Why not? Even calculating wolves make mistakes. And dammit, why are you acting like Azura's the only option? We know there's two wolves, and I say there's more against Greenie than anyone else.

No. I'm still here and thinking. I'm just exhausted from the grind right now. And don't know what any more analysis could do to help, as the same possibilities just keep recycling in my head.

I mean, I know of Kath or Greenie, it doesn't make sense for both to be innocent, or both to be wolves. But which one is the wolf, I have no clue anymore. Greenie looks worse, but that's mostly because the last few days I've spent assuming Kath was an innocent seer dream. And that could be a dangerous assumption to make considering the stakes.

Then either you or Azura is a wolf. And while Azura's vote looks bad yesterday, and he has rather suspiciously reminding us of his newbie status...as Nerwen says. He just looks uninterested. While, you Laeko, could have mastered what we would call, slipping under the radar.

I know. Sally could have dreamed you after all. Or even TEW.

I'm basically leaving you out of this, Boro. Again, I suppose you and Zil could have done a super wolf-on-wolf act yesterDay, but I don't think there's much point worrying about that at this stage.

Anyway, I'll tell you now that I self-protected, so i can't give the village a known innocent. I wanted to hold off saying this in case the wolves gave something away.

EDIT:X'd with Boro; this post took several minutes to load, so I think I've missed the DL.

Inziladun · 11-11-2011, 06:52 AM

Excellent! High fives, mates! Never doubted you for a second.

I have to admit though, the moment Boro sealed my fate on Day 4, my thought was I stayed up 1 1/2 hours past my bedtime for this?

The wolf on wolf vote for Inzil the day before...sheer dumb accident (that at least worked to my benefit).

I had no clue what Nerwen was going to do so I was imagining some weird scenario where she voted Inzil, I voted Greenie. Inzil would be lynched, then I'd be exposed and Kath wouldn't look as shiny. Had I not been so paranoid, yeah...flipping mad.

Thanks Shasta. Wonderful game.

That was the first time I was a wolf with Inzil and Kath. Awesome mates.

Sorry, Greenie, Legate. I'll fight against my lupinity until I'm lynched. No pity for furriness.

Heh. I was hoping Azura wouldn't vote and would be modfired, and we could all vote for Greenie and win it right there. The, he and Laeko showed up at the last minute, and there went that plan.

We had talked the Night before about faking a Ranger reveal, but we were only going to do it if our kill on Kitanna had been blocked. When Nerwen revealed right at the end of the Day, it caught me flat-footed. Boro posted something like "Do you have a response to that, Inzil?" I thought it would be pointless to counter Nerwen that late in the Day, as I was already heavily suspected and no one would believe me. My response was to stay silent and put in a vote for Greenie at the last minute, thinking Boro would follow me and if nothing else, we'd have an interesting tie. But it all worked out for the best.

Same here. I'd never gotten to be packmates with either of you before, and it was a blast.

I didn't have as much time for the game as I'd thought I would, and I was worried that had hurt my side.
The day before the game actually started, I got a new boss, and was handed a routine task that normally I'm given a week to accomplish. This time, I was told it needed to be done by the next day. My apology for being useless on Day 1 was outwardly to everyone, but secretly to my mates. Anyway though, like I said, it turned out all right.

Thanks for modding, Shasta!

And good game, village! I was really hoping you'd accomplish a rare feat and lynch an innocent Nerwen. You made it challenging for us and a lot of fun at the same time.

Kath · 11-11-2011, 11:55 AM

I'm sorry for my lack of participation on the last Day. Having now read the thread I can see I wasn't really in line for lynching anyway but I did feel like I'd ended up asking for a bye on a Day when the village couldn't afford it.

That said, yay Boro and Inzil!

satansaloser2005 · 11-11-2011, 07:03 PM

Also, let the record show that, as always, I suspected Nerwen and she was a gifted.

By now, this should surprise no one.

Wow!

What a coincidence!

And happy deathday! 4 years, right?

A Little Green · 11-14-2011, 03:54 AM

First off - Shasta, thanks for modding!
Secondly - hats off to the wolves, you did a very good job!

Thirdly - never thought I'd be able to say "I told you so" after a game in which I spent the first three Days convinced that our Ranger was a wolf...

Kitanna · 11-15-2011, 06:56 AM

Out of those wolves Zil was the only one I suspected and that's cause he wanted to lynch me.

Well played everyone.

I was hoping you would stay after Nerwen instead of voting me, but then she had to ruin it with a reveal.

Well, what's a wolf to do?
