Randy, before you can say anything, I didn't lie in this game. I was Terror. I was honest about not being familiar with snow camp and I did not apologize to you in the last round prompt.
Great game everyone although it was a bit odd how many fish votes we seemed to have all through the game. Admittedly those fish votes and the lack of clear cut majorities really did help the wolves win this one.
I was so sure that I wouldn't last past the first few rounds, but actually made it to the end. Thanks for another great game Dina - you are a great mod and always make the games interesting.

Holy Cow!! I was totally skunked. What a fun game. Remind me to never, ever believe Cinnamon again. I really thought she was the Seer, but what do I know? Nothing!
Great game, I'm glad I was part of it. Thanks everybody.

Well, I was right about froggy and Cinn. Sorry Randy! I thought you were a wolf for sure. Same to you Bobby! I didn't suspect Mocha at all. I was thinking she too quiet, but took her job into account for that. Blah!
Oh well, I'm going to start a WW game if anyone's interested. Dina, do you mind if I use a couple things from this game in mine? I'd like to use prompts, and share the identity of one human like you did. If it's ok, I'll include these things - if not, that's fine. I understand.
Take all sorrow out of life and you take away all richness, and depth, and tenderness. The capacity of sorrow belongs to our grandeur. It is the furnace that melts hearts together in love.

So, I was despair, and, Randy, I really did feel bad that you were so upset with me the entire game. I included your name in the post because I felt you deserved an honest apology, and it is always interesting to include people's names in your psych, because wolves would "never" clear a human. Honestly, I had no idea when that psych would be used or if Randy OR Josh would still be in the game, and, to be honest, I really didn't care.
I know you are probably all wondering what all the psychs meant... let me go copy them and edit them in to this post. There really was a lot of personal info if you could figuer out what they mean. I'm sorry I had to disguise everything so much, but I guess I have such a strong "voice" that people always pick me out when I'm a wolf, I decided to go very different this game.

-My first cell phone I received for my 16th birthday, and it was a brick by today's standards. I dropped it all the time and never had any problems. I only had 150 minutes, and was only allowed to use it to call home if I had to change plans with my friends, and for emergencies. When I mentioned my kids, I really meant my students. I really am amazed at all the stuff they have on their phones, but I find them very rude.

No more bad tires on snow roads.
-This is a story that happened while I was driving 2 years ago on the way to work. I was an idiot and not only didn't have snow tires on, but the regular tires I had were bald. Really, though, the tires I had wouldn't have made any difference in the situation.

I was able to use a flashlight (since it didn't like light) to make it back into a box so I could take it outside.

-This was a mistake for me to talk about Thanksgiving, should have said Easter or Christmas instead. Anyway it has become tradition for my family, whenever we have my mom's china out, for me to announce to everyone that the gravy boat is not attached to the plate it sits on. The last sentence, that stumped all of you, refers to the history of Augustusburg castle in Meissen, Germany. link As you can see in the link, he was a political prisoner who was confined to the castle with the order to invent gold. He (obviously) could not invent gold, but he did (independent of China) develop a way to make porcelain, or "white gold". This was one of my favorite castles to go to, and that story, told to me by my host brother, was the one I remember most from my time in Germany.

I have to say I didn't suspect you Mocha as being Despair, because I didn't figure you'd have the time to be so creative - with your job and all. Awwww. . . . . . . I should have given you more credit.

By process of elimination, I was Death. I can't believe I made it through the game without being shot. I have never been good at playing the wolf role to last very long. I find it the hardest role ever. For the record, I never try to disguise my answers but I have learned a lot from this game for the next time I a a wolf. I forget to try not use regional terms in my answers such as snow camp instead of snow fort.
Good game all.

Yeah, Snowy, life was really crazy, and I really do feel bad about that. I felt horrible I missed so much of the game. Fortunately I had 4 days to write my answers, so every time I sat down at the computer I answered one or two more for Dina. Writing those was more of a stream of consciousness than trying to disguise my words.

Well done wolves... I had Mocha figured, but for the wrong wolf. I actually was watching Froggy and Cinn very close because of their voting pattern, especially last round ...
but Snowy - well, I want you to read this and smile as I am not trying to "yell" at you, but you were the wolves best ally.
When you get it in your head that someone is a wolf, you then do everything you can to make the comments and psych answers match them. You started in round 1 saying I was a wolf and never let up - it was so frustrating to read your comments and ask myself "Why me?" Why always me, seems like almost every game we play together I am the one you like to pick on as matching the choices given. It's nice to be liked, but it would be nice to have some elbow room too. I even tried to break that thinking of yours that this is wolf not boss and so don't vote for someone on a gut feeling. I have never texted a message in my life, I do not own a laptop, I use a paper calendar to keep my schedules which really are more for my wife - put this in a bank... the first two comments have come up many times before in games.
Mocha - I was never upset with Despair - I was more obsessed with trying to break the code of the comments - which someone pointed out made me a wolf. I actually felt pretty strong that Froggy was Despair because of the game I mentioned and she was apologizing, so you almost caused a fellow wolf to be shot because of a comment you made. It was creative, though I would vote to say all sentences should be clearly written and not in any type of code or shortcuts for future games - unless we are playing in a spy game.
Cinn - in an early round you mentioned every human should have two people cleared and I sort of countered with a comment that we only have one cleared. Did you oops, or was you counting Josh in that count as it was pointed out?... oh yeah, and as you pointed out for the other wolves (???)
Froggy - nothing has to be said - you played great.
Fish votes - cost us the seer... I think they are ok for the first round and maybe even for a second round but that should be all humans should allow. I stated the reason I didn't like them, too easy for wolves to sit back and try not to be noticed so no one would vote for them even once... hence they would not be on the optional firing list. I concur with Bobbi, I was sort of viewing Cinn as the seer, but only with one eye.

Hey Randy! I can't help it. I see you everywhere I look. lol Now really, I figured you to be Death, because of the first prompt, because I know you are familiar with the computer, and I know you have clients that need taken care of in an organized manner. What better way than on the computer. Well, now I know. . . . . Take my suspicions of you as a compliment. Please. . . . . otherwise, you'll always shake your head at me. I can see it now. . .. sitting in front of your computer, reading my posts. . . . . and wondering (while shaking head) what's wrong with that woman! IDK . . . .I really don't know. I really do try to analyze the posts. I was onto froggy and Cin, but I will admit, I suspected you more than they. Oops . . . . again, just take it that you are liked.

great job wolves. I have no idea what happened this game. Anyway easy win for the wolves. I just have one question for the wolves. Why did you eat me? I thought I was doing a good job of shooting the humans for you.

I think that was sort of what was going through my mind about the 4th round! Seriously, Death's quote that round made me shake my head that it was someone **cough, cough** about my age... memory is still intact though.
This was a great game of Boss none the less, and sorry that Froggy had to be the boss again. Cinn did a good job as her rat too!
Stewie... near the end, the wolves really don't have very many options. Sometimes it only takes one of the wolves to vote for you as their primary meal to take you down - you at least had two the round you got gobbled up. Snow and I came up a lot, but just never in the right order or quantity to get the job done. If you truly look at who the wolves voted for every round there is a pretty good idea of who they feared. Some players were never on their meal lists, but us humans did do a good job of getting rid of them on our own!

wow we kill our seer in the first round
the reason i keep ask not the shoot randy is that i have a sixth sense in the first round that told me randy is a human...
what is sense??and if i am not making sense, then why i say it?? I SAY IT COZ IT MAKE SENSE TO ME BUT WHY IT DON'T MAKE SENSE TO YOU????????? sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!

This game, I started by voting for the people who were related by vote to the person that was shot (either voted for or voted by them), hoping that would give less clues for the humans to get going. I voted for Josh because he was mostly cleared by then. The others I voted for not becasue they were a threat to me, in fact, I was trying to not eat people who voted for wolves because that might have given a clue as to a wolf's identity. I also tried to not eat people who were driving votes since they were the most active. I really try to not vote for people I see threatening if I can help it because I think it is frustrating to get eaten just because you are a good player. That is actually why I did not vote for Randy, even though I did keep trying to put blame on him (and really did a horrible job of it, I might add).

Thank you Mocha for that...
Truly, I think that is the way it should go - to a point. If YOU made a blunder and it was caught, then I would go after the person that found the blunder. If the player happens to pick up that you are a wolf, then to not eat them makes it more challenging. The key to success here is if the player isn't 100% sure (which I wasn't) - promoting their demise by a gun is the safe bet... but eating them at night is better.
One of my little secrets... I may not always know who the wolves are, but I try not to always come across as guessing. Maybe that is why I get shot or eaten early.
For what it is worth, I do thank the wolves for letting me play through this game. What I said early in the game was not a comment for the moment... I haven't played as many games in wolf lately... not because I don't love the players, but because as a human, you are totally at the mercy of the wolves. I may have 2 of the 3 wolves figured out, and it will always be that 3rd wolf who puts me up as their nights meal first. The wolves definately have the advantage in this game and unless something is done to change that, it really is only a game of trying to enjoy it as much as possible. I stopped playing in 20 player games in wolf because I have never seen the humans win in that... way too much advantage for the wolves. I may mod another game, but for now, I expect I will be retiring from wolf and concentrate on boss. At least the player can control their destiny in some regards.

Randy, I was referring to Josh as being cleared with that and it wasn't a slip up. It was intentional. The funny thig is, someone called me on being a wolf because I pointed out yet again Josh was cleared. What I was trying to do was tell my fellow wolves to not eat him as he wasn't a big threat at that point. You will notice I did not choose to eat him.
I was hoping to sound a little like the seer with backing Randy and CW.
For me choosing who to eat was extremely hard except for the first 2 rounds.
I chose Hadleigh to eat in round 1 for the same reason mocha did, she voted for jtolley.
I chose shaidar becase he hadn't logged on for 2 days and I didn't want him cleared.
Round 3 - too many agreed CW & Randy was more likely human.
Round 4 - same as round 3.
Knowledge is not power. The USE of knowledge is power.
Hey Randy! If you join my WW game, I won't accuse you of being a wolf!!! I promise!

Sorry Snowy... but for now, my gaming days are on hold... especially for wolf games. Real life is really throwing me into some curves right now... plus it is getting real close to tax time so I have to get my business paperwork into place - no playing until I am paying! Gee that rhymes, but it really hits my chimes. Jpaw... hope all is well with you - normally we hear from ya!
And to our mod, Smeraldina, thanks for modding... even though the game is over, you are welcomed to update the story line.. it was interesting.
