Grrrr.

I can’t see a way to move it. Too damn much guessing. You’re the only one I’ve had a vibe on of those around. If we do lose, I’m so sorry town.

Ugh, sorry. On vacation and had to run out to get groceries for the Fourth of July cookout.

**Vote Nanook**

I don’t think Hal is scum. I guess we’ll see shortly.

Ok, last shot here (snuck away from the family for a minute).

It seems apparent that **Pollux** probably isn’t going to make it. That, to me, clears him. If he were scum, he would _have_ to put in a vote to avoid the coin flip. So, if he’s town and I’m scum, that means the _other_ scum is voting with the other two townies. Care to explain why in the hell scum would bus other scum now, when the win is at hand?

That’s all I’ve got…there’s no logical way I can be scum…five minutes left, and I gotta go. Back at 4:30.

It can’t be said that he didn’t go down without a fight, but Hal Briston, the town sheppard, silent Hal…was put to rest.  
Santo looked down at Hal’s body expectantly.

Koldanar looked down at Hal’s body expectantly

Pollux Oil looked at Nanook…Nanook met his gaze. They smiled at each other as they started to change.

Santo looked up in time to see the mass of teeth and fur flying towards him, Koldanar never saw it coming at all.  
In the years to come, people would ponder the mystery of what became of Cecilvania. Was it the wolves that cost the town it’s life, was it the town’s unwilingness to work totherer, was it a greater power simply condeming the townspeople to a tourtourous demise? No one will ever know for sure.

What is known is that  
Hal Briston - townsperson

is dead.

And that

**TEAM WEREWOLF HAS WON CECILVANIA!**  
Congradulations team werewolf.

Scum boards will be unlocked along with the spoiler forums in the next post.

Good game everyone, I hope some of you actually had a good time.

Thanks for participating everyone. I know this wasn’t the most exciting game to play or watch, but it was an interesting experience to setup and moderate.

I dont know, it was damned exciting to watch until they figured out it was an all vanilla setup.

It was fun helping you watch over the game Diver. I am glad you had fun.

I kinda figured that would be the most exciting part. Once they had figured out the setup, I anticipated a big rethink of all the previous misconceptions.  
Unfortunately for Town, a gifted Wolf was forced into a false claim on Day 1. And by the time the setup was apparent, I think it was too late!

Also kudos to the Town for accepting the setup before the scum did.

From a player standpoint, I thought that was the best part. The slow transition from “could it be…” to “yeah, it definitely is” made for some nice tension.

I had serious questions about **Pollux** ’s post recaps, which looked like a townie action but in reality didn’t nothing to help the town, but I blew it off in favor of better game. Ah well…

Well played, scum!

I think personally, I was hurt as prior to this game I had yet to be scum ( I say nothing of Conspiracy one way or the other) and I think w/out that experience, I just felt completely out there once the vanilla aspect came about. Certainly left me groundless on the last two days !
