Soap isn't edible! Cheating!
Also for anybody who wants to make their own self rising flour, just add like 2 tsp of baking powder for each cup of flour and mix it well. I never buy self rising flour because this works just fine
Also 10/10 the music completely added to the write up and made me feel like I had just fought god and won
Let's pretend this is why it took me two hours even though Shorty wrote most of it
Short answer: AM healed you the night you got sick; otherwise it would have spread via your PMs. I can go into more detail tomorrow.
Also I wish I had time to make scones but I was on an urgent care shift right until the deadline. Also it is not healthy for me to eat that many scones at once
Nonsense, it was done precisely when I was checking thread and was therefore right on time

She also was demanding that I wake you up
This is me.
I considered it. But then I'd have all those scones and I'm trying to lose weight...
Wait how does @DocEspana react to Barky stabbing LIS with Excalibur??
Typhoid Mary 2.0!
Genny’s first message to me was asking what was stolen from me and I immediately was like “lol Excalibur” and then later was like well I hope she’s village
I don't associate with side characters. I am the the protagonist of my own life baby and things are all lining up just for me
100% where I'm at right now lol. And this is why I haven't made the heavenly cinnamon rolls from the Snoop Dogg cookbook in over a year
So before I go to bed, here was the deal with the royals:
SAR, Bob, and Alley were female characters who were killed by LIS. If they had been attacked with the regular wolf kill or had been voted off (without samac + bread voting together), they would not have died on the first attempt. Although, Alley, you were weakened by the plague for night kills and Barks also tried to excalibur-kill you that same night, so you seemed destined to died anyways.
Alissa was weakened by the plague for day kills (vig shot + yeeting) and got shot during the day cycle.

And Barks' vote counted on D0 because at the time, she was Wart. Excalibur was activated that night.
Ah this might explain why he chose me
He didn’t know I could repeat targets lol
Mfw when people were yeeting LIS for being the only male royal
I was dying.
And was waiting for them to turn on you, because not only were you male, you were a knight in Cornwall (wicked sus per samac) and had been killing villagers with a sword
I tried to yeet her yesterday lol
Speaking of yesterday, thank you everyone for your patience over the last two days. I was able to close out an important project today without worrying about the game, and I really appreciated everyone's flexibility -- and loved shorty's awesome idea for using the bake off as a placeholder 🙂
And you never even got to use that perfect picture!

And in my defense, I did attempt to kill a wolf once but my sword flew away
And so uh next time I’m like “yeah I like power thanks for voting for me for mayor 😀” remind me of this game where EVERY TIME I PICKED A VILLAGER IN A TIE.

@genny probably should have stuck with the teapot-to-turtle plan but I encouraged her to get grabby.

Yes to this. Also, Civ V
Excellent work village. Definitely a contender for best village for this year's aWWards 😀
Um what? I'm confused about the genesis of this question.

I did keep imagining the look on your face if it turned out I was a wolf though. Pretty funny 😉
Oh we won! 
I don't remember if I did choose you.
Honestly, the single lesson I learned this game is: I don't have time to play.
Wolfing doesn't work if you can't pay attention. Villagering doesn't work super well, but at least you can sorta coast along doing your best.
Cool theme, @PippyPony 🙂
Congrats, Village! Esp Barks, I think it was, who threw out a list of suspicions early in game that had, like, most of the wolves on it.
And for the record, @samac .... I didn't pocket you. You more or less pocketed yourself. 🙂 I just replied with the WW equivalent of a bunch of smiles and nods. 🙂

Village crushed it. I was so impressed!
To be fair, I already knew the answer to the question.
The song used in that theme is a hymn called I Vow To The My Country, set to the tune Thaxted by Gustav Holst. It was sung at the funerals of Winston Churchill and Princess Di. Edit: and Margaret Thatcher!Yes to this. Also, Civ V
That and Jerusalem are my all-time favorite hymns, although I LOVE that Civ5 version because both the unison choral versions can get clunky/kind of plodding. But the tune itself is incredible.

I'll get superlatives, accolades, and the spreadsheet posted later today (actually a lot to compile for those) but I'm happy to answer any game questions in the meantime!
I also still owe some of you your role flair
I didn't forget, @SARdoghandler

Hey me too 😛
Why was I the only death on my death night? Did they hit a non-lady target that time?
Yeah I think they targeted Cyndia or Dina with LIS's kill, iirc. You were the wolf kill.
The LIS kill was silent to attacked players unless it went through (it was halted high up in the OOO at the player metadata level and so was not trackable/watchable unless the player was killed).
And actually, follow up answer to that -- samac got notified of the failed attack on her on N3 (N4?) because that was LIS doing the regular wolf kill. She got a diminishing kill protection as part of her PM role, was at 75% chance of protection, and rolled a 3 on the 1d4.
Follow up follow up: there was no true protector in this game.
Wolves had the jailer & the kill avoidances, the village royals had their kill avoidances (but were almost all female characters), samac had her PM protection, genny could cast protego (which she did do) or cast expelliarmus, expecto patronum, vulnera sanatur, make mandrake potions, accio a bezoar, or make a portkey (which she didn't do), and dina's role had a chance of conferring night kill protection the night after a person was moved to Cornwall.

Will you add me to dead chat whenever you get the chance? 🙂I'll get superlatives, accolades, and the spreadsheet posted later today (actually a lot to compile for those) but I'm happy to answer any game questions in the meantime!

Great game and great theme!!! Loved the British story influences and flair! It was cool getting to do the ones I knew well and get more familiar with the ones I didn't or had overlooked.
I can't remember, but whoever had the confuscious spell did amazing! That will be unforgettable (except for who did it) and had me rofl. I don't know how you did that so perfect and off the cuff. Good job!
I was for sure Samac was moriarty and going to turn on everyone at the end. whoops
Good job Pippy! Best WW game I've ever played!

So I thought samac said LIS was affected by the plague? Did that not actually happen?
He didn't get the plague
Dead chat is completely full beyond my capacity to add people. @Lupin21 is in there but I'm not sure if she's seen the PM/knows to add people because I didn't tag her outside of the chat.
any remaining player can be added whenever lupin gets a chance.
This was such a great game!!!!! I’m glad I tried to give pms a chance again because they really do make the game more fun, I need to keep that going in the future. Also the bake off in the middle probably made this my favorite WW ever we should totally do more bake-off things in another thread sometime! With slightly longer deadlines haha.
