Which leads me to werebear rule #495: do not pave a nice road to wolf victory by lynching the hunter and killing the seer. Absolutely brilliant strategy Sauce and Fea, you (like me) had to think about your own survival whether it be with the wolves or the village. And you put yourself in the perfect spot with all the power, the village couldn't lynch you and who cares if you gave the wolves a headache about whether to just kill you or not. Well done wolf-team, but you may have under-estimated the threat, Nienna can probably remember my wolf-guesses after my death and I wasn't anywhere close. The only baddie I was came close to guessing was Greenie. I guess I could include Sauce, since he turned out to be a rotten villain too. Super game Mira and Nienna, thanks for getting me to join, I can't believe I was actually dragging my feet, because I would hate myself for at least an hour if I missed out.

Great game everyone! Especially the wolfsies and luuuurvly lovers! But grrrr wolfsies for killing off Borobear so early. I was so looking forward to the havoc he was going to wreck. Still waiting on those cookies, sally dear.

Mira's lack of strategy is supremely better than Borangutan's attempt to come in with a plan for the werebear.

I am interested, because I was really worried that you would attack one of us at Night and go for the sole victory. As a Wolf, I would have been sorely tempted to.

I never did dream of Boro. I dreamed of Sally the first night and Pitchwife the second night. I originally planned of dreaming Pitch the first night and SPM the second night and Boro the third night but things shifted. I had SPM pegged for the ranger around the time I died and Boro pegged for either the cobbler or a wolf. I would like to apologize for being such a horrible seer. I clearly make a much better ranger.

My mistake, I completely misread it.
"This crazy bear...I think her name was Mira, came up with an infinitely superior strategy than what Borangutan could ever possibly come up with."

Could certainly have made a difference, especially if you'd gotten hold of Morsul. All of us able to PM might have been decisive. Ah, the possibilites....

And well anyway... There were a bit too many if's with that vengeange kill (the possibility of Roa being lynched to add there) and the remaining lover playing for the innocents as a known innocent - alongside Inzil making it two in the worst case etc... So a deal... at least in the short sight was better for us. I mean I actually wasn't sure the game was going to end when it did. It was actually 2 against 3 and not an ending position... But talking of my position, I would have voted for making it a shared win by killing Nerwen then, but who knows had I been persuaded... On another issue: don't blame yourself Hakon, it's not everyDay the seer makes the right choices. Quite the contrary...

Because the night belongs to Lovers...
Fea and Sauce, you're a pair of evil, scheming, unconscionable, brilliant cuties! All is fair in Love and Werewolf, of course, and you played your cards splendidly. I really hated having to miss Day 3, even more when I came back, saw what had happened in the meantime and found myself D.O.A. just when the game got truly exciting - but it was great entertainment to read, and I bit my nails in suspense how it would all turn out. Congratulations on a magnificent performance and a deserved victory!
Same to the Wolves. If I'm permitted to quote myself - Quote:
*(I'm very curious whether she actually spotted you two as wolves and did it on purpose, counting on herself to be lynched so that the suspicion she'd voiced would be discredited when her role was revealed.) Brinn, congrats on eluding me completely! You were a worthy packmate to our two loudmouths. And when you drew attention to Greenie's suspicion of Nog and Roa, was that a deliberate attempt to find out who would take the bait and need to be killed? McCaber, finally, was the ultimate pawn sacrifice. Nice wolf-on-wolf there. Boro - seems the Bear is an endangered species these Days, but at least you had a juicy last meal devouring our Seer. Condolences and respect to all my fellow innocents, especially Nerwen and Zil who showed us how to lose a game gracefully. Out of curiosity, Morsul, who would you have Hunted if you hadn't been lynched? Quote:

I would have lynched me too. And I would like to second Pitch on congratulating Zil and Nerwen for showing the world how to lose gracefully (and with brilliant parody).

One thing I would like to add is that when Boro and I spoke after our deaths he told me he was going to tell me who the wolves are, I told him let me guess first. I guessed two correct, Roa and Nog.

, Morsul, who would you have Hunted if you hadn't been lynched?
.[/QUOTE] once again without much to go on Nerwen would have been my vote she's very clever it was really either her or Roa they're good at Seeming reasonable...

I almost protected you the night you got it, Lottie. But somehow Nog still looked better.

Wow, even having a criminal lack of internet on the crucial day turned out alright. Way to carry on, guys.

A lot of the times too, it depends upon not only what side you are on, but who your enemies are. Like my first game as a wolf, I had phantom and Lalaith as partners, we went straight through and none of us got lynched. But another game as a wolf, phantom and Lalaith were innocent, and I was lynched Day 1 - both voted for me and phantom gave the final vote to put me in the lead, because they knew my wolf-habits and I was acting the same. Or I should have figured out in this game, when Nog and I are on opposing sides, I have been a pain in his rear too many times, and if he doesn't kill me early I make him regret it. It's not that being killed/lynched early = you played bad, a lot of it depends not only on who is playing, but what roles they have.

It worked anyway! And my apologies to you Pitch for us to kill you at that stage, but you were one who could have been able to make right deductions but as you were away you had not said anything - so a perfect kill for us... Heh, that's werewolf. Quote:
I mean I'm still to that old-fashioned "let the threathening people live" -school who is more for a real struggle against an easy win (which of course is never free or easy whatever the set-up is). So I was absolutely against killing Saucie as it would have been also plain unfair him being killed after the first Day of the game second time in a row after a long pause thus making him not able to participate the actual game at all. So I just half-jokingly said we should pick Boro instead as he has been such a pain in the... if we were taking down a "loudmouth" who could be a problem. And after waking up to a new Day I realised Brinn and Roa had decided going after you (Brinn agreeing with my reasons to leave Spm live). It looks like me and Brinn are the only remaining romantics of this game... Quote:

Hey, no need to apologize - I would have done the same. In a way, I take it as a compliment.
Which reminds me, I forgot to compliment and thank Mira and Nienna for their modding - how rude of me! Great theme, a mix of roles that guaranteed an interesting and surprising game, and very well handled (never mind the narrations). Thank you both!

Evidently Nog was not around for the end of the game. Have you not seen Fea and SPAM?

That's a very good question. Ask another.
Actually, I'm not entirely sure. I saw it somewhere, and thought it was funny, so it just became a habit...I can call him SPM if that's better...

When Sauce first joined he was a a notorious spammer, filling threads up with complete falsities like how half the dwarves of Bilbo's company were females. It got so bad the powers that be temporarily banned him, but have allowed him to come back as long as he takes the Moderator of Spam job that opened up. That is he has to spend his whole life on the forum dedicated deleting and banning other spammers...kind of an ironic punishment.

We like vowels. And the SPM options were Spam, Spem, Spim, Spom, and Spum.
And either he could be canned ham or gibberish.

Actually, the bit about the female Dwarves is correct. And Boro is half right in that I have (not unfairly) acquired the reputation as a rather verbose poster, in WW games in particular. I try to fight against it, but I think that it's just in my nature ... Oh, and that reminds me. Roa, I take it that your admonishment to me as a forum moderator was part of the act (I hope it was), but I should point out that I have not been a mod here for over two years. Talking of spam, I must get round to sorting out those Lovers' letters ...

Another song for Fea and Sauce. Original here, original lyrics there.
Just look at us - we’re a living nightmare We’re Moddess Mira's favourite pair We write great poems and cause mayhem And we’ll flirt with the Wolves and sell you to them Just play with us and you will see we’re worse than a Cobbler could ever be We count as innocents, but we're Lovers too So don't expect us to side with you For as long as we're together all is well - We’re the Traitor Lovers from Hell! If your Hunter is lynched on Day One and the Bear eats your Seer just for fun If the Wolves tear out the last ordo's heart don't blame us, we're just playing our part If Noggerwolf gets down to beg you can count on it: you're as good as dead If you won't help us win we'll throw you under the bus cos morals is a foreign word to us We'll vote you and retract to you as well Cos we’re Traitor Lovers from Hell! There’s nothing innocentish about us two romantics Can’t you tell? There’s nothing innocentish about us two romantics from Hell! We'll confuse you with talk about Wolvish Friends as long as it furthers our own ends We'll help a Wolf to lynch his daughter We'll gladly see the whole village slaughtered We'll lynch your Ranger, and Nerwen dies too as long as it means victory for us two We'll sell you all to the furry three All we ask in return is, Let us be For as long as we're together all is well - We're the Traitor Lovers from Hell!

Hakon, someone just thought it would be funny to call him the SPAM man, and it caught on. That's all. You may also see him referred to as Espiem. I'm not certain if that started from LMP, or if LMP got it from him.
