This game held a lot of “firsts” for me.



It is the first time I voted for a fenris.

It is the first time I helped lynch two wolves in the first two Days.

It is the first time I was not suspected “just because”.

It is the first time I was not suspected for my Day1 vote.

It is the first time someone, regardless of role, didn’t try to get a Galwagon going (either because they believe in it or because it’s convenient).

It is the first time I was Night-killed when there was a known innocent around.

It is the first time no one voted for me the entire game.



But some things never change. I still can’t participate in an endgame – I was so excited! I thought the wolf would 100% kill sally; even though I was under no serious suspicion it was more than a known innocent has (duh, they’re known). I was mentally preparing myself for a battle with paranoia. I even wrote a post overnight that I wanted to post when the Day starts. And when I saw that I was dead, I *slapped* the wolf (I knew who it was! It’s the person who killed me! ...yeah) and thought the exact same thought as sallycakes:

Quote:
Insanity? Suicide? Shenanigans? No idea, but whatever the case, there is still one known innocent among us (hello, all), which means we have a ridiculously decent chance of catching a wolf toDay. Also, I'm still alive, so whatever the reason, I'm pleased.
Except that I was rather cross and not pleased at all that it happened this way.


On the last and fatal Day I was thinking “the wolf is either Pitch or Cop. Either he caught her or she caught him. Shasta doesn’t look all that guilty compared to the other two based on the situation... but then he’s Shasta, and that’s reason enough to suspect him on Day1!” 12 hours into the Day I have concluded decisively that I much prefer Sudoku to endgame puzzles unless I get to take a part in them, not just watch from the side.



Wow. Just wow.

Congratulations again, wolves! And thank you Menel for organising this game!
