Right, a few things I've been wanting to get off my chest, and since this game finally over I now have the platform to do so.
Firstly, well done to the wolves. You were however NOT without fault (more on that later), and I think this will probably be the easiest win a pack will see for a long, long time.
Secondly, I have some feedback for you, DML. The game was horribly unbalanced from the off. Nine Werewolves and just two Seers, with an extra Vigilante thrown in for good measure was really, really handicapping us. That was more wolves than ever by at least two, and one Seer less, with an added vigilante just for good measure. Coupled with the bridge system which severely limited our options, I had trouble seeing anything but a wolf win, and when they started taking out big players from the off, sadly it was all a matter of time, which brings me to my next point.
Never, ever should the werewolves have been allowed to pick off the actives, and in some cases the most effective players right from the beginning. All credit to the wolves here, I'd have done the exact same, but that should never have been allowed to happen, and an already unbalanced game started to become one way traffic.
Thirdly, the villagers, after myself, Denster, Hexx, Herbi, Mocky, Stu etc were killed, absolutely the most ABYSMAL performance I've ever seen, even more so towards the end. I mean for the final week it was abundantly clear that Clarkman, Henke, Krafty and especially Mori were wolves. You let them just take control without ever
really questioning anything, and I put that down partially to the fact there were so many inactives and first timers remaining. I had Mori down as a wolf from what, Day 2? When I contacted Eighthours with the FE, Nood and Mori scenario, and unfortunately he elected to stick the other two up for lynching. I mean come on! He posted drivel after drivel without ever really doing or saying anything helpful!
I was actually contacted by someone a week ago after posting in the thread, asking if I was interested in who the wolves were. I responded by guessing with my seven likeliest suspects. The four listed above were included.
Again, I don't think this would have been so bad had DML disallowed the merciless killing of big names from the start, thus all that were left towards the end was a mix of wolves and inactives, with a few semi-active humans left alive.

Only because you had a completely useless set of humans in front of you who couldn't spot a werewolf for the life of 'em.
Even so, I must applaud DML for putting together an entertaining game for a short period of time. Back to basics next time please with a player cap.
