Interesting that Vro, Gerrick, and Wischland feel strongly about voting for ENE, to the point that Vro started this and Gerrick and Wischland have outright said they think they're a wolf. I don't know what happened to give them such confidence...to me it feels like overconfidence. I think I feel more comfortable voting with Hapi on this one, given that I don't have to question her motivations.

While I saw it as the most likely possibility that both Wille and ENE were wolves, I chose to vote ENE to see if their defense would give me any reason to think it's Wisch on the off-chance that I have been fooled this whole time, it did not. Also, it was the most poetic for me after hounding Wille for most of the game to lynch him last, but whatever. :p

Gerrick (Legolas), the "Vigilante" was killed during the night.
Eastern New England (Sauron), the "Godfather" was killed during the night.

This is the end of Night 7, and with all four of Sauron's Forces dead that means…

THE FELLOWSHIP WINS!

Woo, way to go, town! And well done, to the wolves -- that was closer than I liked.

Looking forward to the write-up. Thanks for hosting, Red!

Lol, holy shit, did we have a vigilante this whole time?

I would love a breakdown of everyone's night actions.

In case it wasn't blatantly clear by now, I protected Gerrick N1, and that's why I was fairly confident of his town status.

When Hapi asked me to trust her and not lynch Michi, her insistence that Gerrick was a Wolf made me at first wonder whether she was a Seer with some sort of tie to Pengu (or maybe she used a ring ability to scan two people N1), and that's why I was willing to lynch Gerrick anyway @Wintermoot. I later came to the conclusion that Hapi was either the defender, or Smeagol, and had either protected Pengu and was thus as sure of Pengu's Town status as I was of Gerrick, or would just say and do anything to keep Pengu alive due to some shared win condition. That's why I moved off Gerrick in the end.

For Sapphiron, I felt like I'd been played the whole time when it came out that HumanSanity was the Seer. I have never played a game with two Seers, so every instinct I had went into overdrive with Sapph. When I realised Sapph was telling the truth, I still wanted to lynch him simply because I deemed it the honourable thing to do, as he did insist we lynch him anyway. I don't always care about winning. I know it's not rational, but it is what it is.

And yeah, I rezzed Daws N1. That's why I was super paranoid when y'all kept sussing him.

That all said, very well played to our scum team.

Not that it matters much either, but wouldn't Gerrick's kill have been stopped since the final Wolf got vigged, Red Mones?

3 new players to Wintreath Werewolf as wolves...we're lucky we won at all.

This was a great game...congratulations and great job on creating and hosting it, @Red Mones.

Yeah, I would have been a little more trigger happy, but the catch that if I killed someone who was town then I commit suicide meant I wanted to be very careful about who I chose.

Oh wow, what a way to end! Great game everyone! I had lots of fun!

Asked people over at MU how a vig and Wolf targeting each other gets resolved, and it turns out you handled it exactly the right way, Red.

Also, I'm going to need to know everyone's night actions to write the flavour.

Good game and well-played everyone!!! I know I learned a lot from this game, and I hope to play better next time with you all again.

Thank you so much for making this Red, and all those who worked on this, it was a blast!

It’s been a great game, thanks everyone and especially Mones for hosting it and Ruguo for assisting!

@Vroendal, while you're here, what made you so sure Willie was a Wolf? I only arrived at that conclusion by a long, drawn-out process of elimination in which I gathered a lot of town reads and was just forced to come to that conclusion based on how Townie everyone else was, not based on anything that Willie did.

Well, when I first started accusing him I wasn't sure he was a wolf at all, I just wanted to gather reads and he was one of the few players I had almost no reads on because he hadn't spoken a lot. But as I kept hounding him and he still didn't reply, it started making me think that he was keeping himself on the down-low by not responding and letting all the heat go to me or others. Then that made me realize that he also never responded when Gerrick voted him. This lack of response could either point to disengagement or intentional lurking, the latter of which didn't strike me as a particularly townie play when you're being voted. I also saw from his profile while I was checking his ISO's that he was active on the forum even though he wasn't talking in the thread. Whether that was an intentional play or not, I don't know. As the game went on, I had gathered what I felt to be enough behavioral information to form teams and make susses in my own head, and he was never really eliminated from any of them as more and more players were cleared. I talked big, but that was more to try and get people to also jump on my wagon which would have hopefully encouraged him to speak. My plays never worked, but the way the thread was going it just felt like the wolves were lurking, and Wille just fit as one basically.

Thanks everyone for participating! I enjoyed hosting this game.
Huge shout out to @Ruguo for co-hosting this game with me. This game would not have happened at all if it weren't for them, and I'm very grateful for their help.

Shout out to our allies from 10,000 Islands, @HumanSanity, @Wille-Harlia, @Wischland, @Eastern New England, and @Flying Eagles for joining us. It was a blast having you guys join in and I can't wait to participate over at XKI!

Also a shout out to @Minish for subbing in, and shout out to the cabinet, especially @Wintermoot and @Michi for supporting and encouraging me to host this game.

And of course, big thank you to everyone else who participated. This was a new experience and I absolutely loved it!

Yeah, I was wondering what I should do about it. The Godfather gets defense from night attacks until all the other wolves have died, so by the time Gerrick attempted the kill, ENE no longer had it. I would've asked Silv about it, but it was about 15 minutes before end of night, and they weren't online at the time. I thought about using the submitted time as the deciding factor (Gerrick sent their actions first, so their kill would go through and not ENE's) but I decided that would be unfair, since people live in different time zones and have different schedules and lives, and that shouldn't be the deciding factor. So I settled on both dying. I'm glad to hear that's technically the correct way to do it.
