I agree.

For the life of me I can’t figure out whether this is a white flag kind of deal or whether there is something that town is missing.

Seriously, this game has pretty much been on auto pilot since Day two.

And now we’ve got three more, for all intents and purposes, confirmed scum. We know that we lynch **DB** last so I’ll follow along with the rest of the group on either **Z** or **cookies**.

The only way town can have any challenge would be if either I or **story** were also a cabal. And that when we off the other three it becomes a David v Goliath type of situation. I’d cast **story** as Goliath except that he lost the first round (Goliath) so I guess those roles would still have to have casting calls.

Well we may get a cat fight out of this at least.

And, no offense intended ladies. It’s just how we refer to it in the land of mesquite, heat, lots of red meat, every road is a potholed filled street, where we say “Howdy” to greet and oh by the way we are located west of Crete (or east if you feel the need to pick up some cinnamon on the way).

NETA. If we are still playing in a couple of days and we have the numbers town will want to lynch both **story** and I before offing **DB**

Thank you, Captain Obvious.

I guess Scotsman wasn’t the world’s best claim, but it was all I could think of, and then Omi so graciously shot himself in the foot with his town power claim (true, yes, but you have to admit it stank to high heaven.) I could go on with “Oh, but you don’t know, there could be two Scotsmen!” but seriously, why waste our time?

I was entertaining the idea you might be frustrated town, but if you’re going to br sanrky, I’m going to arrange for the extra tickly rope…

The wind blew gently, the Night passed in calm turnings, the dead are brought out.  
**MHaye** is no more.

And others are missing: **ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies** , **Zsofia** , and **Drain Bead** are no where to found. But what is found are notes of confession. The three had been working to destroy the Town. That was no longer a possibility, and they have fled.

**The Town has won!** Congratulations to **Koldanar** , **cckerberos** , **MHaye** , **storyteller0910** , **Oredigger77** , **CatInASuit** , **RoOsh** , **peekercpa** , **Hockey Monkey** , **brewha** , **One and Only Wanderers** , **Hawkeyeop** , **Santo Rugger** , **Omi no Kami** for their well earned victory.

**Thank you to all the players.** I hope you enjoyed the game.

Woohoo!!

Good Game all, and well done town.

Now, time to find out what the Wolves were thinking.

**Pleonast** , are you going to unlock the secret threads and allow open access without having to register?

\*\*Storyteller \*\* - you owe me a beer as well 😉

Great game Pleo, thanks for modding.  
One question, I missed the whole Zofia being modkilled unkilled thing, what was the story there.

Dumb question number 2, how do we get access to the other boards, it would appear we need to register.

When is the next game up?

I think I’ve unlocked all the locks on the boards. Let me know if they’re still inaccessible.

I decided to reverse the mod-kill of Zsofia because she did give warning and had been participating up to that point. A mod-kill would have really screwed the Wolves, but was neutral to the Town, since it advanced the Cabal win as much as the Town.

I can’t get in to any of the forums (well, except the one I always had access to) because it still asks for logins.

Do we need to create accounts for those boards?

I was thinking earlier that a sudden collapse of resistance might happen. Good game.

I was REALLY trying for a Cabal win there at the end when it got hopeless for me and **Zsofia**. The night that **fluiddruid** and **ShadowFacts** both died was the beginning of the end.

I was impressed how you still pretended to be town even with all the evidence against you. Did you consider going for the mod kill so the cabal could win?
