He must be a wolf lynch him!
*sheep mob follows*
By the sake of logic! I think he's a wolf!
*sheep mob follows again*
Damnit, but I do think this one is a wolf!
*sheep mob follows once again*

As moonlight transported itself to the weathertop, the wolves were plotting.
Well drat.
This one has been using logic to get us!
Maybe next time he'l be using....I can't say it....
Don't worry....We all fear it...
What? What's wrong with maths?
The rest gasps and shudders at the vile word.
Don't say it!
Well, we must kill him then, for the sake of our safety and for the sake of IT not being used....

The wolves crept to the few that were remaining, their sleep uneasy and the guard looking paranoidly at the trees.
Damn, we'l have to take care of the guard first.
Don't worry, I've been reading this comic and he's a dwarf....this should be no problem... I'l distract him while you get him.

One of the nazgul krept behind one of the trees and and clum up it.
We're rooting.....
We'l get you......
We're invadinghttp://www.giantitp.com/forums/images/editor/menupop.gif ur caves. Root-slapping ur beards.

Scared the guard looks up and wants to cry out a alarm.
But its to late, a nazgul silently crept behind him and gagged him.

Good...The guard is taken care of... Now we have to take care of the one who uses logic...
I think he's over there.
The nazgul crept up on him and dragged him away.
WHUT? WHAAA? What are you doing? NAAAAAAZGULL!!! Phantomfox cried out as he awoke.
Don't worry, nobody will hear you here....
But damn, I promised one of those guys that I'd find you for him...
Well, you found us, or better said. We found you.
What are you anyway? Humans don't have fur....or a snout?
Ha! I see through his disguise.....Talking with animals as he walks through forests.....

The brown.....
You're Radagast the brown! Whisperer to animals, friend of nature....

His disguise unmade, he transformed back into his human form.
You cannot pass, I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the Flame of Anor. You cannot pass. The dark fire will not avail you, flame of Udun. Go back to the Shadow. You cannot pass!' "
The Nazgul still approached.
Damn, I just did have a feeling it was a lifesaver speech...
The nazgul stabbed him to pieces, his hat stolen.

Night 10 ends.
PhantomFox was killed.He was a villager.
Day 11 starts now and ends in roughly 48 hours.

Looks like its curtains for me. I hope there's only one wolf left, or this is the last day.

Festy though I dunno if that will matter.
PhantomFox told me they thought Mal might be innocent, so I'll trust that.

Changing to Festy in a futile attempt to try save myself, which isn't going to work because Festy still hasn't voted.

Who is our target today, Fin? Since you seem to be in some sort of network.
Hmm, let me look.
Ahh, here my schedule is, today we focus our effort on Mechafox!
But I don't like the look this Uncle Festy is giving of.....There are rumors he's a undead! A zombie!
Lets lynch Festy then!
But we must follow Fin! I mean, he was attacked and then survived, so he must know what to do!
Okay, Mechafox it is then.
Meechaaaaaaaa Fox!!!! I choose lynch you!
And so while nearing Rivendell, they lynched him. But the corpse didn't change.
Damn, its just the four of us now.....Wait...Where are these two? Damn I wanted to stay in a group.....
I don't like to be alone with a other person....

Sir, are you accusing me of being a nazgul?
No...No...No. Ofcourse not, the danger has just been getting to my head.
Because you would be right.
Aargh! the voice stops suddenly.

Meanwhile in a other part of the forest.

So, which one of the two do you think is the remaining nazgul?
Hmm, I think.....Lets cut the crap out already, I am the witchking of angmar! The Blackcaptain! The leader of the nine! No man can kill me!
Suddenly after that last phrase, the baner regretted tossing away that belt of genderbending.
Oh ****! But you helped us so much...
You fool, it was all a plot to kill you one by one....
Bwah....Ooh ****.... This is the end then. The hope of middle earth ends now.....It's lost....

Day 11 ends!

Mechafox was lynched, he was a villager.

THE GAME HAS ENDED.
THE WOLVES/NAZGUL WON.


Dirk Kris was the baner.
Malmagor Andrigal was a mason.
Uncle Festy was the devil.
Fin was a wolf.

Yes, we realize that the wolf ratio was 17% and not 14%. It isn't that big of a difference.....
And I must also give a compliment to Fin, on that excellent move.

We're looking forward to seeing you all again next game.
It was our pleasure hosting this game, we hope you all had fun too.

Dallas-Dakota,
Reinholdt,
And Andre Fairchilde.

I still think that trick had no business working. Ah well, I've already vented my frustrations at Fin by now. I got Dirk and Malmagor to contact me, but just too late.

Argh,that had no business working. It was way too risky! Though part of my reason against thinking it wouldn't work is that I tried to do something similar in Camp Sleep S'more with the quarters, but they wouldn't allow us.

He tricked the baner, who was stupid enough to fall for it. He guided my banes, and let the wolves know who to kill, who wasn't going to waste it.

I'll never trust you again. Even if we're on the same team. Even if the narrators tell me to.

@Dirk: I may have to sig that last part! Seeing as I may be paying for this for a few games to come!

@Murska: It was pure luck, in an attempt to salvage the villagers game Dirk contacted me randomly. Taking a big risk, but perhaps a fair one considering the circumstances. Unlucky for Dirk, it didn't pay off!

@PhantomFox: In camp sleep s'more did you intend to get the baner to protect you or did you simply want a kill attempt on you to not work? Because for this to work I genuinely had to run the risk of dying, should my pet the baner fail to protect me!

Phew what a game, I think I'm going a little grey here! I thought I was rumbled at the end though. Dirk got spooked by PhantomFox pointing at him and outed himself (you needn't have worried, I wouldn't have let him kill ya ) A little PM based trickery solved that little issue, sadly though it meant killing PhantomFox to prevent that little blip from escalating.

Anyway, good game everyone! Fantastic job by the narrators as well!

Too easy.

Too bad my plan didn't work out. I wanted to have PF, Dirk and Shadow alive by the end of the game.

If I pushed a Mechafox wagon, I would have survived till end game. Oh well.

Well, in Camp we were handed out quarters, which were one-time use self-banes. Of course, being a wolf meant this was practically useless to us. So we asked Smelly Hippie if we could use one and attack ourselves to gain massive credibility, but he said no.

No wonder you couldn't do it. An all reward, no risk situation? Talk about unbalancing.

It's going to depend on the narrator(s) for each particular game if that will work or not.
In this case it did.

Yeah, that would have been epically hilarious.
Anyways, did anyone see me as a potential wolf? Anyone at all?
I'm pretty sure I was never under public suspicion…

True, but that combined with never seeing or hearing of it happen, made me think that it just Wasn't Done.
