"Pinging", surely? I don't think a radar can be irritated...

Kudos Shasta!

We were really bad (we=innocents) in the beginning, then we geared up only to lose at the last possible moment... But hey, that's the fun of the game, a rollercoaster-ride!

Lommy knew you were a wolf after she and Legate had dropped out of the game and when it was revealed I was killed she was here and asked whether I wanted to know the last wolf. I wanted to make a quess and went to and fro for a while ending up with you Shasta because of what I wrote in my post about you trying to systematically ignore and/or divert the Sally-lynch back there. So you were the only one I had "reasons" to suspect, others I just had bad hunches etc.

Not that I would have been able to turn the tables on the last Day had you decided to kill someone else. Probably not... as I'm not sure I would have voted that way in the first place. Who knows.


But I do think this game strengthened - for a long while - the belief that you can actually reason the wolves out and that you can trust some others, at least partially or for the time being. And that is just, well, nice.

Thanks for especially Agan & Nerwen for a half-decent try for co-operation (and this is not intended as a joke) & sorry for Pitch & G55 for a really misguided start!

Thanks for Kitanna as well. It's so much more fun to play when you can trust the moddess to do her job punctually and give a nice scenario! It was sad your quite interesting cobbler-role was soo wasted. But these things happen (I know).

And thanks everyone for playing! It was fun once again!


PS. Extra thanks to Legate for forcing me into a playing-mode...

Maybe if I ever have the chance to mod again the cobbler will have the chance to shine.

Thanks for the game everybody! I was out of town until today and only saw now how it ended, and I must say Shasta's being the last wolf took me by surprise. So yes, good job and congratulations!

That's such a pity. If you'd survived and found a way to get my attention, we could've done some wonderful in-thread plotting on the days to come!

Definitely. It was an interesting experience, especially for someone who's so used to constantly second-guessing herself.

I don't think I've ever before had such a clear vision of somebody's guilt, but in this game, after a couple of days of being totally in the dark, I suddenly just knew sally and Legate had to be wolves. I was almost as equally convinced of Nerwen's guilt later, though...
