a) you can really have no complaint that you were lynched, given your deliberately provocative behaviour; and b) however close it may have come to succeeding, your plan seems to me to have entailed more risks than benefits. And, as for your near success, it seems to me that this was primarily attributable to the fact that you nailed a Wolf with your early vote, thus making your attempt to appear as the Seer more credible to the Wolves. But that, you have to admit admit, was pure random luck. Quote:

Rune's Great and Magnificent Plan:
Well there was none, but one thing I learned was that aperrently my logic is the oposit of everybody els. 1) I thought that most people would vote randomly the first day, but now I know that everybody is wolves who in mysterious but somehow logical ways will try to get a dubble lynch and fraim all the giftet. (all in one day) 2) I thought it would be good for people who would be voting last on the first day to have more than two options, what I did not realise was that the golden rule existet! The Golden Rule: When two people are thave 2 votes each on the first day in werewolf one of the will allways be a wolf. |

It seems that while both the Wolves were fooled by Gurthang, all the innocents saw right through him - not that it did us much good.
I did wonder at times whether Formendacil might be a wolf, but the fact that he voted for Spawn before her death was inevitable but after I had voiced suspicion of her kept tripping me up. That seemed like something a wolf just wouldn't do, unless it was a deliberate sacrifice. It was a very daring move - and one that might have been disastrous if they hadn't happened to kill the Seer that night. Holbytlass, on the other hand, I didn't suspect for a second. Her tactic of going against popular opinion and consistently attacking me worked perfectly. And to put Lhuna's mind at rest - after thinking about it, I've concluded that the fact that she was unable to come forward and declare herself the Ranger before being lynched did not alter the result of the game. Had she done so, we would have killed Kath - but, finding her innocent, I would have hunted Lhuna that night, thus taking her out instead of Mormegil. So it still would have been 2 wolves, 2 innocents, and the cobbler the next day. So don't fret, Lhuna - and I'm glad to hear you're all right. And I've forgotten to thank Alcarillio for doing such a great job. Using Numenor as the setting was a great idea. |

That's sad. I was afraid my first post after Jack's death made it to obvious that I was the Ranger...apparently it didn't. And I was fearing for my life every Night, but it turns out I should have been more afraid during the Day. Where did I go wrong? Oh, and thanks. |

Although I do fail to see the point in me explaining it. I'm sure your mind will not be drawn away from the idea that my plan was stupid. Sort of like when you're convinced someone's a wolf. Whatever they do, it makes them look more guilty.

It could have worked (just like the double lynching), but the fact remains that it did not. Quote:

Oh, and you're probably right that I'm overhyping my little ploy. (Though it would have been the best since sliced bread had it worked.) It was so close, but it is true it did not work, and don't worry; I don't plan on trying it again anytime soon, if ever.

The reason being is that he's on the wolves team and aids them, which makes him a detriment to the village. Case in point is this game. What if Fordim had been lynched instead of you so you were left at the end. It would have been 3 innocents to 2 wolves, thus giving the village a chance. The way it turned out the village really had no chance because of the cobbler. The cobbler is a secondary kill to wolves but a good kill nonetheless.

Not to get off the Gurthang topic, but...
I wasn’t able to keep up with this game quite as well as I wanted to, but I did have at least fleeting suspicion of Mormegil when he said this: (I’m not sure if it was brought up in the game or not)
Quote:
I had discussed that suspicion with Gurthang, who countered with his theory that Formendacil was a wolf & Fordim was the Cobbler...I still think mine was better. Posted by Fordim: Quote:
I really enjoyed Fordim’s game (and hopefully I’ll have some time that I can use to go over it more), partially because it reminded me a lot of my own, only much better. Not only did he seem to do a better job confusing people, but he didn’t support either of the wolves nearly as strongly as I was forced to support Eomer in WW7. Whereas I committed too early and couldn’t back off without looking suspicious (and, after being lynched and found to be the Cobbler, dooming the final wolf), Fordim seemed (from what I read) to do a good job of never really getting sucked into defending the wolves. Of course it may have helped that Formen & Holby weren’t at the top of the collective suspicion list much. Anyways, good game all – and good modding as well. |
