Incidentally, I still haven't told you the stupidest of my incredibly stupid things I did this game. I haven't even dreamt Legate on Night1. My first dream was Shasta.

And the third one was Inzil. So, who was the second dream?

Final DL. You all can keep talking, though. Inzil was lynched and is the final wolf () and the game is over. Final narration to follow.

Legate. At first I thought to bluff and dream someone else, and try to piece Legate together based on reactions, but then I thought that the wolves could bluff and double bluff too, and I wouldn't get the picture anyways, and what if I'm killed/lynched and everyone thinks Legate is wolf while he's really innocent... so I ended up dreaming him. sally, what did you bribe the Psychic Man with to get him to share his secret?

You were a last-minute pick as the possible Ranger. I took the chance that my attack on Legate would deflect attention away from me long enough to allow me to get her.

For those keeping track, that's two games in a row a wolf-me has been dreamt.

"woah, both wolves voted for me...Risky but that was probably going to be their best chance to lynch me and while the opportunity was there they might as well take it." And of them, I was convinced Legate's vote looked the furriest...Shasta's had been reasoned as sort of the best choice in a bad set of options for him, and while your vote shocked me the most could have been explained away as self-preservation. Then upon hearing G55 dreamed you the previous night I was sad-facing because the dynamics had been setting up I just couldn't tell what would happen next. Both wolves voted the same Day 1...Inzil casts a critical vote for Legate and the cobbler also voted for the wolf. I was dreaming up a scenario that if Inzil could possibly pull off a convincing case G55 was the cobbler there remained a small chance. But that also meant G55 could not be killed, or the gig was up, and you would also have had to identify the cobbler to somehow get on the same page. So really...no chance, but I was semi-rooting for you today. (In the end avenging my unjust lynching wins out. Fantastic job, go village!)

McCaber was a good Cobbler. He managed to get away with literally saying "I'm the Cobbler wolves please don't kill me", which takes some nerve, and nobody specifically picked him up on it. His effort at a fake seer-hint toDay was valiant.
G55 did an amazing job as the Seer, so congrats! She managed to pick out Legate as a wolf on Day 1 despite not dreaming of him until Night 2, and picked out Inzil for Night 3. The whole fake reveal then real reveal gambit was excellently handled. Shasta was very crafty. At the end of yesterDay I was thinking that he seemed like an innocent Shasta in tone, but some of the things he was saying and doing at the end of Day 2 were suspicious. And given toDay's revelation, they were evidently on purpose! Nicely done. Legate did well in not being taken in by G55's Cobbler act. |

The first words the next morning came from Valkotukka. "Who's next, Rudolph?" asked the small boy.
"Wait!" cried Jack Frost, "we're missing somebody." Everyone fell silent. They had hoped the mysterious guardian had kept the last murderer at bay again - but it seemed that was not the case. "Where's the Sugar Plum Fairy?" asked Little Cindy Lou Who with a bit of a scream to her voice. Everyone shared a look, then ran to the card shop over which the Fairy lived. "Sugar Plum?" called Cindy as she burst through the door. The Ghost, having skipped the door and floated right through the bedroom wall, floated down, moaning. "The poor woman," he wailed. "Suffocated with her own cards! The ones about Santa, too. What a wicked, cruel beast!" Cindy sank to her knees, sobbing. "Who did it?" Paksu asked. "Rudolph, please say you know!" "I think I might," Rudolph said. "I'm not sure, though. I could be wrong..." "You weren't wrong before!" the Grinch encouraged him. "Who do you think it was?" "Well," Rudolph said slowly, "I know Frosty's evil. I don't know if he's a murderer, though!" "Frosty?" Tiny Tim asked. "That's ridiculous!" "I agree," Frosty said, "especially considering you're trying to get me killed!" "She's right," said Jack Frost. "I should know - I remember now - I was the guardian who saved Sugar Plum the first time, and I don't know why I didn't recognize you earlier!" "It must be Frosty," Paksu said. "If you killed Sugar Plum," Little Cindy Lou Who said, getting to her feet, her tears frozen on her cheeks, "you're going to pay." "What do you mean?" Frosty asked nervously, backing away from the furious Who. "Does anybody have a hair dryer?" "Come, now!" Frosty protested. "That's just cruel!" "And suffocated Sugar Plum wasn't? Electrocuting Suzy wasn't?" Frosty spread his arms innocently. "C'mon, now, forgive and forget! You don't want to stoop to my level, do you?" "Y'know, I think I'm feeling a bit stoopy," Cindy snarled. "I'm with you," Jack said. "I never did get my payback for Suzy's death - or at least, not enough." "You can borrow my travel-size, if you like," Cindy offered. She ran inside to fetch the hair dryers. "Any last words?" Valkotukka asked. Frosty hemmed and hawed for a minute, then tried to make a break for it. The Christmastowners chased him down the streets of town until he hollered stop, out of breath. "Do what you like," he huffed. "Christmas is ruined this year, anyway. Christmas is ruined forever!" "Yours is, anyway," Jack said, turning on the hair dryer Cindy had just passed him. While the Grinch and the polar bears held him still, the two grieving Christmastowners slowly melted him down. "Better destroy the hat, too," warned the Ghost, "or we'll never be truly safe. Not that we will anyway..." "Wait, wasn't this what you were warning us about?" asked Tiny Tim, surprised. "Nonsense," the Ghost said. "This is nothing. Disappointing, yes, but nothing compared to what is coming." As Cindy took vindictive scissors to Frosty's magic hat, Tiny Tim's eyes shone in renewed hope. Living Sally - Little Cindy Lou Who Shasta - Jack Frost G55 - Rudolph Coppermirror - The Ghost of Christmas Present Steve - Valkotukka Morsul - The Grinch McCaber - Tiny Tim Lommy - Paksu Dead Lottie - Suzy the Snowflake - Moddess Boro - Olive the Other Reindeer - Ordo Legate - Santa Claus - Wolf Nerwen - The Sugar Plum Fairy - Ordo Zil - Frosty - Wolf The game is over. The village wins!

Shasta, you played a heck of a game. I was pretty sure you were the ranger but you didn't give me anything I could use to discredit you, and your protections were spot on. G55, nice seering. Eying out two solid picks in two straight nights is an accomplishment, especially against a team like Inzil/Legate. Inzil, it's too bad they caught you early. You're a cold enough customer that if you didn't get seered I could easily see you turning the game around after Legate bit it early.

Ah well. I guess our ancient WWing losing streak together with Zil is not going to get better with this game, not at all, preciouss. I doubt it could have gone worse, actually. Spot-on Seer picks, a Ranger save on our first kill, heavy suspicion of Zil from the start and then me...
Absolutely congratulations to G55, though, and all the honor - is it your Seer-debut? Because that was just deadly aim. It seemed to us on Day 1, if I recall correctly, that you were acting weird, but to the point that it seemed weird to consider you being the Seer - possibly Ranger or somesuch, or that's what I thought. On Day 2, I was wondering whether you aren't the Cobbler, but then I saw that whatever you were doing was not very Cobbler-wise and that you were getting yourself killed (aka "a 180 turn at the beginning of the Day about me, is that normal?"). My thoughts on Day 2 were "she must be absolutely the worst Cobbler I have seen in a while". Alas, you weren't, instead you were the best Seer I have seen in a while. *Hat off* Shasta's save was also an important factor, though that was more random stroke of luck, since our original plan was not actually to go for Nerwen. Also, one of the picks was G55, whom we still debated, because we feared she might be protected (!) - had we killed her, things might indeed have been possibly markingly different... Lommy and Cop were the other two options for our first kill... I am sure Zil can better elaborate what happened So, G55, why exactly did you go after me on Day 1, if you have dreamt of me only on the second Day? Anyway, I think I have been saying it during the last few games I have played, because it was always like this, after a long pause; it is really nice to play WW again. Even if for just this short while. (After the initial crisis of Day 1, when I thought I might lose Zil already, I have actually been quite hopeful... especially once G55-wagon seemed to start rolling... and then she had to reveal. Ah well.)

By the way, I'm glad we had that talk about bussing. I thought the wind was blowing for a Legate-lynch, and nothing I did would stop it. If I tried, I might be setting myself up as a Seer target. Once again though, nefarious plans come to nought,

This is my second time as Seer. My first was way back when in Boro's game. But did you actually consider me as a possible cobbler for so long? I thought you were thinking about it, but then thought better in your last posts, which is why I got desperate and grabbed the last role out there that might not be targeted. Quote:

But, Zil, why did you go for Nerwen on Night3? The Ranger cannot self-protect. Was it just the trusted innocent factor?

That, and a frustrated desire to get a certain kill.

By the way, before I forget - what's "Roger, wolf tower"?

Way back, in a game Glirdan hosted, Rikae and I were packmates, and Nerwen a Lover whose purpose was to find me. I hinted to her early on (obviously not something hard to do ) and Rikae mentioned at the end of the game that she was worried it would come back to bite us - Nerwen had responded to something I said, and Rikae thought it looked too obviously like acknowledging my wolfishness - hence, "roger, wolf tower!"

When you said that, I thought to myself, "You know, a McCobbler would absolutely do that." I wasn't going to point it out for the benefit of the wolves though, of course, and I wasn't entirely sure you were the cobbler anyway (as opposed to a wolf hinting at cobblerism).
