Looks like it worked! Like you say, it's a shame nobody protected you; but equally, as Ordos it's kind of our job to draw fire for the good of the village. It just... rather sucks when it works.

I'm not mad about it - I went into this game wanting to play a bolder game than I usually do. I've never actually done any significant Gifted hinting as part of a strategy. I do wish the BH had picked up on it and we could've gotten a wolf, too, but at least it's me dead and not a Gifted!

Looking at our lists, it seems like we only agree that we feel good about Rikae, so they might be a good option to vote for as Medium toDay.

That's an amazing story. Please tell me you won!

Agreed for now, depending on how the Day shapes up. Looks like we also agree on Nog, Kath, and Pitch all being some flavour of bad news - shame we can't do anything with that!

Argh, I need to sleep soon; I was hoping the Living would talk a little before I went, but they're not obliging.

Here is the game in question. Looks like the pack was Me, Greenie, Nerwen, and Kitanna, and we won by the skin of our teeth.

EDIT: Greenie was the cobbler, that's right.

Hear, hear.

So, any initial thoughts on the Medium?

So the last time I modded a game...I think it was way back in 2013, set in Lake-town.

Lottie was a wolf (I forget who the other wolves were). But I had the rule that in the event of a tie, whoever got the highest total LAST would be the one lynched.

I think the first 4 days and nights the only people dying were villagers and I swore to everyone that yes there are wolves and there are gifted roles in this village.

It got to the point where everyone knew everyone else's role, because the ranger made a save that turned it around for the village. And I will forever have the image of Lottie running down a street in DC to make it to the DL and vote to clinch it for the wolf pack. Because the last 2 days were just a voting arms-race as people hoped to be the "last" to vote.

Crazy. But that's also why I took Nog's rule from last game about tied votes.

A couple of details: It wasn't DC, it was Annapolis...and I left a date early just to make it back in time.
