Man, I've no idea who's evil any more, I spent so much effort getting rid of Dekoa I've not realy paid much attention to anyone else. I can't see anyone giving off more evil vibes than Locke though, I guess he's got to swing.

I'll sneak in my vote for Locke, as well. At this point, there seems to be an actual chance good can pull through. Assuming this bandwagon isn't being swayed by evil..

Locke. I've actually been suspicious of him because of his lack of posts since day 2, actually. |

How can I not be evil? By not being evil... =/ It's a typical evil almost naive strategy. Both evil teams tried to kill you to put blame on me today since you were calling for me the past 2 days. I was glad it was failing though, but you insist on bringing it up. Stop, please. Kthx.  Also, didn't the day end mucho long ago? Even my vote was late.  |

Interesting. Everyone's too chicken to have any shootouts today
 Don't you silly good guys know that by now, evil knows virtually all of your roles?  Join the Gamingforce Composition Competition Useful Stuff

Remaining in play for Good were a Shaman, two Deputies, two Gunslingers, a True Huckster, a Preacher and three Natives who could protect one of their own each night. Even at two kills per Night, this was too much of a handicap. They'd need to waste two attacks on the Deputies, both of which would learn the identity of an evildoer after not dying. They'd also have to remove the Gunslingers, which would cost several precious evil lives. Not only that, but the Chupacabras had a traitor amongst them. That's right, delving back to the first Werewolf game I ran, I planted an Infiltrator in their ranks. This player had been slowly informing the Natives of who was Evil, so at this point, the Natives would clearly know who to vote for. In order to stop this, the Chupacabras would've had to waste a Night by attempting to kill off the right person among their rank and file. That's another Night that Good survives to vote off Evil the next day. So, the citizens of Oxblood, depleted as they were, somehow found the courage and gumption to rid themselves of the Evil that had befallen their sleepy, little town. So who was what? Spoiler:
So you can see that the dual roles were evenly distributed and varied greatly, yet none were so obscenely overpowered that they upset the game's balance. Wanted Posters!! I'm somewhat disappointed that this didn't come into play as significantly as I hoped. I'm still keen on the idea; the order in which players were executed simply had a way of rendering a lot of the Wanted Posters unplayable. I tried to think of a way to mix up the distribution mid-game but I felt that would be a bit of a deus ex machina and that I should just let things fall as they may. Perhaps there will be another game in which they'll have a more profound effect upon the outcomes. I tried to use them as a way of tempting players to act in ways that would be contrary to the way they'd otherwise normally approach a role. Some players were coaxed into turning against a teammate for a profit. Others were tempted into easily influencing the death of another player, even though that player was of the same alignment. Others, yet, were given posters that would give them motivation to kill off a natural enemy in the process. So, there was no way to be certain as to why you received a poster. Sometimes, if you had one, it was simply an act of my whimsy and I merely wished to see what would happen. So, was someone seeking to profit from your demise? Here's the handy guide to knowledge! If a player has a name after them, then that's the person whose Wanted Poster the player possessed. Spoiler:
As you can see, approximately one-third of the players had Wanted Posters, and most of the people who were wanted had a way of not dying. And those who could've earned rewards tended to die early on. It was all chance, mind you, but it's still rather fascinating how it managed to not be a big factor despite the potential. So yeah, Good wins. Oxblood was saved. Discuss amongst yourselves. Congratulations Good Guys! You pulled off the upset!
