Naturally, it all could go down a totally different route.

Let's say Nilp is the Seer who panicked - or for some other reason - decided to go on some dashingly daring game? That is not totally out of question.

Or maybe Greenie is just a really smart wolf who fools us all? (In that case I'd say she'd deserve victory)

Maybe Lommy's lament at the end of D3 - which felt quite convincing - was actually her plot trying to steer away those few who might have suspected her on D4, or at least make them hesitate just enough to save her from the ropes?

Or: while my reason keeps reminding me, that Legate is the most believable wolf-candidate, but in the back of my mind there is this nagging voice saying, "Maybe you're wrong? Maybe he's just short on time (as he has said) or something and the rest is just conjecture?".



Well, four minutes...

Good job Greenie and Legate!

And the Beast Hunter for ignoring Nilp who I now think is a Wolf. NO wait, I'm confused...

Yeah no that works.

Nilp may not have been able to protect himself (if he is the BH), but he did kill a Wolf.

Nilp claimed he WAS the BH, and soft asked for the Ranger to protect him. His trap was always going on someone else. If Huin correct interpreted Greenie's list yesterDay, Nilp is probably one of our three known innocents.

Yeah that makes sense. This game is making my head hurt. (And my stomach - it's lunch time and I'm not eating yet!)

Echoing the very same question - though suspecting she's sleeping right now and we'll have to wait for the morning here in Finland.

But one wolf down basically buys one more Day. So good.

Although we (sic!) could have done this lynching Legate already on D2.


This more or less confirms Nilp is an innocent (unless we read Greenie wrongly) and thus it only remains a question whether Nilp just pulled this all off as just a normal villager, or was he actually the BH who made this nice trap?

WHOA!!!

We were right on both!


But what this means remains to be thought of.


Anyway: welcome Greenie and also Legate - and kudos to the Trapper!

Take a comfy chair- there is no Spanish Inquisition here.

Welcome to the Halls of Cassandra, Greenie.

I guess welcome, Legate? The protocol on welcoming the evil beasts that prematurely ended our Lives is yet to be established.

Perhaps death has cured you of your Curse and you shall now offer us all the information you can.

You know, to keep things sporting. The poor Innocent side hasn't had a lot of breaks yet.

Is Legate the NW? The wolves get to choose who gets caught in the trap, right? I'd assume they'd pick the NW.

I'm pretty sure the Wolves thought it would be Legate, or why sacrifice him and not the NW?

Hi, Greenie! I really hope the remaining innocents spot/spotted your list post... That way we might stand a chance.

And hi, Legate! Don't worry, we're all friends here. Though if you feel like telling us who the rest of the pack are, that'd be grand.
