I spent the last 18 hours going friggin' crazy though.  One line of thought I had going that would have been successful was:

- Garry is pulling an obvious trap and will flame Nauls
or
- Garry actually somehow thinks MacReady is a Thing and will flame MacReady

- Thus, Windows should bite Garry

But it didn't stick, in the end.

I my opinion, Bennings was smart to remain quiet while I talked pretty much all the time. I think it avoided us ever looking like we were on the same team. However, when he started talking, he never said anything that made it seem like he was trying to route out the things and I think that made him an obvious target and led to our loss.

I respectfully disagree; After you were blown up, the only three people who weren't tested was Macready, Windows, and myself. Macready deciding to kill me saved Windows from being blown up.

I just wish I was willing to stick to my guns and tried to convince you guys to convert Brentai on night 2. I was convinced he was the best person to turn, but I had no reason to choose him besides my gut feeling.

For posterity purposes, the "little trick" Friday mentioned was basically: I sent Nauls and Copper a PM asking them to both vote for me, hoping Nauls would believe he was "in" on my voting bloc and super secret plan to psych out the Things (which I guess he was).  I also did the same for MacReady and Copper because I needed him to be in on the other part of my plan, but he kind of freaked out instead which I think worked out much better than what I had in mind.

It worked beautifully and I plan to be insufferable about it for weeks, but in all honesty we were fucked sideways regardless of whatever I could do until Frocto and Niku decided to be amazing.  Again.

Also I just realized that my goofy Resident Evil schtick is partly what saved us on Night 2.  Barry Burton is, in fact, really powerful.

All in all it was a very close game with some mistakes and also some excellent play on both sides.

This was at least in my top 5 favorite games I've run.

Shit, I just realized Niku was my dynamite brother.

That just makes this victory even cooler.

Great day 3 dynamite play.  I was planning to blow my wad as soon as the first dynamite went, but then I woke up and went "FUCK DOUBLE DYNAMITE ALL THE WAY" and had to go to plan B, and failed.

Oh hey you did.  I totally did not notice that until just now.  Oh well.

I was just confused this entire game. Usually I canget a pretty decent idea what to do but this time I was looking to other people for advice and I just couldnt read anyone. The paranoia was certainly a big mindfuck.

For some reason lately as soon as I'm playing a wolf game, I start channeling Guild. I need to stop that.
