Here is my vote:
Werewolf LVII: Beneath the Iron Cross - GAME OVER, VILLAGERS WIN! - Front Office Football Central

With a couple of posts pulled out from the thread for those who don't want to read the whole thing:

And so an idea was hatched ...

Heck, I even promise to release the name of another wolf if the Duke makes this happen. It would totally be worth it, even if it doesn't help us win the game.

Here is the hook for the real duke.

If anyone has any last minute questions about my innocence, please feel free to ask them. I'm sure I'll have answers that will satisfy all.

If anyone has any last minute questions about the wolves, please feel free to ask them. I'm sure I'll have answers that are cryptic at best, outright lies at worst.

To the Duke out there - I'm pulling for you to make the right decision tonight. Getting a two-for-one is the best thing you could ever do for the village.

Mr. Unnamed Wolf - you know who you are - yours is the name I'll give away if given the opportunity.

This is not entirely honest, as we will see later ....

Yep, very interesting two days later. Thanks for making it fun to read, BK.

If we duke to the wrong person than we lose a villager by lynch, possibly another tonight via attack and then who-ever he give up. That's possibly 3 villagers lost to one wolf, 4 if he ends up being the brutal wolf.

Granted, if he actually gives us a wolf, that's a 2 for 2 exchange, maybe even 3 wolves to 1 villager if the duke, whoever that may be, dukes correctly tonight.

Interesting discussion at least.

How interesting was it post-deadline, EF?

Do I even need to count votes?

The end result is complicated and interesting. Give me a minute... or fifteen.

Three cheers for the duke!

Oh, it was legendary all right. Just not in the way I intended.

...or so you think.

ArlingtonColt quickly shouts out. "OVERRIDE! CODE 8675309! Select specimen: EagleFan!"

Neon Chaos buzzes and whirs. The monitors light up.

OVERRIDE CODE: MAGISTRATE.
8675309 - J.E.N.N.Y.
CODE ACCEPTED.

The obelisk appears, and the beam shoots out. Eaglefan is quick, however. He grabs Passacaglia and they both get stunned. Neon Chaos is unable to distinguish between the two bodies, as Eaglefan clutches on to Passacaglia's neck. They are taken into the chamber. A flash of light, and it is over.

You are all stunned at this turn of events. It seems that EagleFan was quite the brute. And Passacaglia was nothing more but a villager. You eye hoopsguy, ArlingtonColt, and ntndeacon. What a day...

Night 2 Begins: Actions are due at 10 AM CST

Well, that did not work out well. The following day was dull, but there were some real fireworks two days later. This one is worth a read if you have never skimmed this game.
