Which to go for then? I'm inclined to go for Greenie because she's the most certain wolf in my head. She's been acting like a normal little green wolf in regards to me, and while I think the new players could have picked up on Boro's "hint," I'm almost certain Greenie would have.

Note: I may be leaving sooner today than I expected, but I'll be able to at least pop in a vote from my phone. No news yet, and with toDay's level of chatter, I doubt it'll be a problem anyway.

Argh, I had a dreadful day and don't really have time for this, and things had to get confusing just now!
![]() a) Nerwen and Sally decided to pull off a spectacular bluff instead of just skating their way through, or b) Nerwen is the real Seer, which would mean that MCR and Copper are wolves - and probably, then, not aware of each other since MCR voted Copper. I'm leaning more towards option b) since Nerwen's claim looks honest enough and would make much less sense for a wolf than an actual Seer, AND her being a Seer fits the picture rather better than MCR or Copper being one. So, here's to hoping I was right - ++Copper Got to dash, sorry for my crappy participation toDay, things happened.

All right. Back again.
See, this is what is bothering me. After that vote, we should be able to rule out MCR + Cop– only as we don't know if the wolves have found each other, it's still possible they're unwitting packmates. Not only that, it's even possible that a Wolfgirl4eva simply doesn't understand the game enough to realise she shouldn't have voted a Copperwolf toDay. Newbies do have a way of throwing out one's calculations... I mean, I really wouldn't be worrying about this, except it's been a pretty weird game... Anyway, I'm going to have to vote shortly. I can't wait much longer. EDIT:X'd with Greenie and 2 Sallys. I mean, really, I wait around for hours and just when I've given up on anyone else showing up... EDIT2: "That vote" of course refers to MCR's vote for Copper.

Well, Nerwen, it looks like we don't have much choice now, do we? The best the two of us can do is tie it and hope Copper shows up and follows our lead.
And with that.... ++Greenie

Of course there's always the chance that my logic is horribly wrong -again- and that Nerwen is just a bluffing wolf, but given that it's all I have to go on, and that it makes sense combined with my other observations, and that I keep saying that, I think that there's a decent chance that we're right. About that. That.
EDIT: x'd with two Ner-posts

Anyway– one of them has to be a wolf, and if it's not one of them it's both of them. So even if it ends up being a tie, we've got a pretty good chance.

It had been a quiet Day in the village.
"Never thought I'd say this," Greenie muttered, "but I miss Nog." "Yeah." Coppermirror agreed. "Maybe we wouldn't have been in this double lynch situation again with him around." "Pfft." Nerwen snorted with derision. "He's the one that got us in to this mess Days ago!" Bowing their heads in acknowledgement Greenie and Copper trudged up to the gallows. This was hardly even entertainment anymore for the remaining villagers. Their discussions had yet again failed to lead them to a decision, and now it was down to fate to decide what happened next. Two nooses went around two necks. Two levers were pulled. Two trapdoors opened. Two bodies fell. One rope snapped and the survivor fell to the floor unharmed. The other body fell. It twisted in the rope, curling up and then stretching out as though preparing for a grand transformation. But the evil inside was slowly being suffocated even as it swung, and soon it stopped moving. Dead, Coppermirror dangled. ~ ~ ~ Dead: Kath (mod) Rune (innocent villager) Shasta (innocent villager) skip (wolf - modfired) Nog (innocent villager) Pom (innocent villager) Boro (innocent villager) Coppermirror (wolf) Living: Nerwen Greenie sally MCR Wolf you can now send me a kill only. Seer send me your dream.

That Night there was a battle of wills. One wolf pitted against the might of Feanor held within the body of Nerwen. Light blazed around the two as they fought, but for this time evil was stronger and eventually emerged victorious.
The villagers were not surprised to find Nerwen cold and still the next morning. However, her body seemed almost untouched. Whatever good had lived in her had helped protect her to the end. Now they looked at each other. Three villagers - two innocent, one not. Who would triumph that Day? ~ ~ ~ Dead: Kath (mod) Rune (innocent villager) Shasta (innocent villager) skip (wolf - modfired) Nog (innocent villager) Pom (innocent villager) Boro (innocent villager) Coppermirror (wolf) Nerwen (Feanor - Seer) Living: Greenie sally MCR Villagers start posting. (Sorry about late start. Assessment marking!)

I'm here. To get it over with -
++ MCR That's clear enough. Nerwen was the real Seer so Sally isn't a wolf (seems I was epicly mistaken, again), I'm not one, so MCR has to be the last wolf. Makes sense, anyway; she's showed some basic new wolf traits such as touchiness about being suspected and appearing to look for somebody to suspect instead of somebody who is a wolf. It's up to you, Sally, since I doubt WolfCR will self-vote. I know you don't trust me, and I also know there's precious little I can do to convince you to. I dearly hope you would, though, since we lose if you don't.

Honoring Nerwen's last wishes and also following my gut.
++Greenie Let's hope I'm right this time....

It had taken Days, near six-way lynches, some sheer luck and finally, finally agreement among the villagers - but there was, at last, a confident lynch.
Greenie was led up to the noose. She was resigned to her fate. "Oh come on!" sally shouted. "Give us something, some entertainment, go on." Greenie held her head high, nose in the air, refusing to dignify that with a response. "Farewell sweet village," she began, "long have I enjoyed the quiet homes and beautiful woodland. The leaping waters of the -" "Oh just pull the lever already!" MCR shouted. sally obliged. Greenie fell. With the death of her fellow wolves the evil spirit within Greenie had faded. The struggling form that was once Greenie twitched. Fur sprouted and limbs lengthened, but she was defeated and the twitching didn't last long. The two living villagers stood in quiet relief for a moment, and then returned home, hoping this was the last time they would have to defeat such evil. VILLAGE WINS with sally and MCR still living.

Though I'm not convinced anyone deserves the win after two modfires and one very lucky escape!

So it was Greenie! I had no idea. Oh well, we lost. I could have voted on Day 4, but I still didn't know which out of MCR and Greenie was the wolf, and realistically the only person I could have voted for was Greenie. And if I'd done that and she'd turned out to be a wolf, it would have been unfair to have me going into the last Day, given that I wasn't going to be able to post.
The game was not exactly the epitome of sparkling reasoning and logic. ![]() Here are my dreams and night kill lists. Night 1 dream: Boromir. Night 2 dream: Nogrod. Night 2 list: Boromir, Shasta, Nerwen. (no kill) Night 3 dream: Pom. Night 3 list: A Little Green, Nogrod, Boromir. (Nogrod killed) Night 4 dream: Sally Night 4 list: Nerwen, Boromir, A Little Green. (Boromir killed) I am a bit curious. Did the other wolves not send in a kill list on Night 2, or was it just bad luck we didn't get a kill? |

All I can say is this: with only two females making up the entire remaining population of the village, there's no hope of bringing the population back!
![]() Heh heh!

I kept notes about the game, though they tailed off when my activity did. It's a bit long, but I might as well post it.

You actually did very well, Cop. It's hard enough for a wolf-cub to survive in an ordinary game, let alone this!

This sure merits the category of the weirdest games...
![]() One wolf never showed up, the two others never got to know each other, we villagers were totally in the dark... and in the three-way game, the unknown innocent makes a huge mistake saying "she doesn't trust" the other unknown (aka. the Wolf). God forbid Sally ignored that obvious wolfy-slip and voted for the real wolf... So it was up to Sally to win the day! *Bows* (I would have taken MCR's "slip" at the face value anf voted her for definitively being the last wolf) Well done Coppermirror! A very good game - although you remind me too much of Inzil who also is an active player but one of which you just can't take a hold on as everything he says is kind of vague in the end... But yes, well done! And Greenie! Blah! I should have suspected you heavily because you were so easy on me... I mean that means you have something to hide. Otherwise you suspect me. And I think you were quite good at the end - Sally just had enough to suspect you to trust her reasons over your very well thought last post after MCR's fumble. Sorry Nerwen that I suspected you once again - hearing of your death and being the seer kind of explained if not all then some any way. ![]() Thank God it was a short game as I've had really busy days about, but next time I'd hope there would be more active villagers around to make it a real Game. Thanks to Kath for running this! It was fun as long as it lasted. And if we were a bit sluggish, that was not your fault. *Kudos*
