This game is so much more fun when you're on the bottom and scrambling vote after vote than when you're deciding who the next backstab will be.

I'm sorry mods for probably tainting the game.

It's honestly been kind of depressing looking back over the game for me. I started the game off with such high ambitions! I was going to be fiercely loyal! I was going to fight for my allies! I was going to be a crazy cat lady and just not care!

It started off so well too. I only formed alliances with Hagrid, Luna and Voldemort in Gryffindor, and I only had one F2 alliance! These were the glory days man.
Durmstrang I was a little more manipulative, but I thought it was ok because I needed to do what I did to protect my pal Voldemort. I voted out someone I wasn't allied with and I still had only one F2 deal! I was killing it!

The Order of the Phoenix was a bit more of a mess, but still sort of ok. I did genuinely try to save Voldemort. I probably should have tried harder, but I wouldn't have been able to keep him around for long after that. And then I was still ok! I originally felt closest to Hooch, but then Neville formed an F2 alliance with me and I planned to honour that! I probably came on too strong, but I didn't have F2 alliances with anyone else. I did backstab Draco, but we weren't incredibly close, so I feel like it was still within the realms of decency perhaps? Maybe I'm just fooling myself, I don't know.

The Ministry of Magic was where it all changed though! Looking back over my confessional it isn't quite as bad as I remember, but still kind of bad. I mean, I was probably stupidly paranoid of Neville at the start, but Hooch did tell me she wanted to work with me over anyone else in the game. It was probably my own greed and selfishness that got them to feel that way in the first place, but I would have had to betray one or the other there. I probably led Myrtle on too much as well. :(

Anyway I think this is where I started getting really greedy and encouraging alliances to form everywhere. I sort of just assumed Neville would not want to work with me so I started working towards a Luna/Hooch/Figg F3 but then he did want to work with me so that was awkward! And then of course like the horrible person I am I pretended I wanted to go the end with all of them! I still feel like Neville was super manipulative with the whole wanting to vote out Fenrir thing and refusing to vote out Hagrid even after I sent my super almost-honest PM, but I realise I shouldn't have been so strong with our alliance, even if it was what I intended on being loyal to at the time. I probably also shouldn't have voted him out considering I knew it was probably Klick and that the aftermath would probably be bad because of it. Where do I draw the line between game and non-game, between not letting identities affect things and knowing the consequences of said identities? I shouldn't have voted him out. I shouldn't have been greedy with making people like me.

Even now I feel so dirty. I'm telling both Hagrid and Fenrir that I'm taking each of them to the end. I plan on taking Fenrir if I win, and it's probably unnecessary doing to Hagrid what I'm doing considering that he probably thinks Fenrir is the bigger threat anyway (and with how much the jury's going to hate me, I think even Fred would win in a FTC against me). Why am I doing it then?

I feel like I've become so carried away with trying to win the game that I've become a complete and utter bitch in the process. This game has brought out parts of me that I despise and honestly I'm thinking this might be my last game, at least for a while. Chances are I'll cave, play again, maybe even be my evil self and backstab Klick again ( :( ).

I do have to say though mods, that while I feel guilty about it, I have enjoyed the game a lot. It was amazing to experience the Harry Potter theme through such an epic survivor game and all three of you did a fantastic job with running things. I'm sorry that I've been a pain when it comes to challenges, that I've made stupid decisions, that I've perhaps caused other people to dislike the game. I hope it ends with a bang!
