Even though things did not work out like they were supposed to for us, I had a really good time. I think I had more fun portraying the drunken, philandering Djinn with no feet but loves shoes (something of an anti-role hint, since I was really Puss and BOOTS) than I did actually trying to win. I quite enjoy acting, and the Internet has made me a much, much better actor.
As the Big Bad Baddies, I think we did a swell job running the lynch polls; unfortunately, we never lynched the right people. I was convinced Mainchin Ironbeast was Tom Thumb because he seemed sure that Laine was civilian (The Nixie could appear good in an alignment check). How dismayed I was to learn that he was not Tom Thumb (and Laine herself tried to convince me that I was wrong).
But I want to point this out to everyone: Not ONE of our kills ever went through. We failed at every Night kill attempt we took. So I don't feel bad at all about running the lynches early on.
Regarding the Carmen issue there near the end, that wasn't Elohcin; it was me doing the typing, and we were just trying to amuse ourselves since we were denied any chance of victory. I thought it would be really funny to have the normally demure, reserved, quiet Ms. Carmen Brightsun come out with claws and fangs and make wild, aggressive accusations on her last game phase alive. I didn't mean to cause offense by being nasty- it was all an act that I thought would have come across as humorous, but I realize I failed terribly on that front. I did not mean to upset anyone.
Incidentally, we didn't think it was wrong to poke fun at folks who were posting from the wrong account. We were just trying to be witty. We didn't think it was bad for us to do given this post:

I gotta admit, I kinda am too.
We weren't expecting the Mod to "cover the tracks" of those who had posted from their real accounts, and we genuinely were just trying to salvage the good times to be had despite our sudden misfortune regarding the game proper.
I sincerely hate that my goofing off and amusing myself upset others. I am very sorry about that.
