As for my first page posts itwas mostly based on we had so few players and then got more last minute just wanted to double check that we still had 3KM also I was excited first game in about 2 years. And to be perfectly honest Phantom's plan is brilliant and I had to read it a few times to get it, brain function is low before coffee. x'ed a bunch |
Ok I've been over in my head about either Lottie or Inzil enough...
++Lottie |
Wait, wait... Has Morsul not played in forever? If so I should probably pass him Day 1...

++Eomer
For reasons stated in my previous post. |

However, given Eomer's flip flop about not voting (and then voting me, of all the scandalous notions), I believe I'll have to choose him over Morsul; it's simply too risky to spread the vote so close to deadline. ++Eomer |
++Lottie
|
Deadline. Please Stop Posting.
|
So I suppose it's
++Eomer edit: x-ed with mod. |
Well, hey, looks like the universe is safe after all...:o:o:o
(Sorry, O Moddess– I really, really, honestly meant to vote this time– just lost track...) |
Steve's vote counts but anything after (?) does not.
Eomer is lynched with a clear majority of votes. Narration to come in a short while. I'll edit it into this post. Nerwen and Manwe - please do not forget to vote toMorrow. (Nerwen, you are, of course, forgiven, but PLEASE vote toMorrow!) Edit: whoops, never mind about editing the narration into the post! :o |
Night 2 Starts
The crowd was gathered around the place where they found the dying man that morning. Accusations flew high, and chaos was among the people. One knew not what to do or how to proceed. Among the confusion stood an aged man, proud and silent. His eyes were thoughtful and his beard almost white. So wise the men deemed him to be that the people begged him, all as one, to give them counsel.
“Counsel you shall have from me,” he said, “and more”. All were now looking intently at him, even the youngsters, surveying his face. The more they looked the more wisdom the old man seemed to attain. “You have heard your neighbours speak among themselves,” the man began, and the people nodded their agreement. “You know what a true Faithful would say.” More nods from the people. “I know what a true Faithful would say.” Shouts of “Aye!” are heard. “Yet there are three among us who cannot possibly say it, for they are not of the Faithful. Therefore I say to you: think! Which people do not speak like the Faithful should? Which ones sound like frauds?” His eyes went around the circle of men and stopped on one face. The others followed his gaze. “What say you to that?” someone asked the man. “I say that there is no taint on me!” he replied with heat, and with a trace of fear. Men around him began to shout. He protested. He reasoned with them. He replied to one of them, but for each answer he gave ten new accusations were thrown at him. Finally, the old man said, “Are you a King’s Man in disguise?” “I am not!” “But do you not think that with all the evidence these good people have gathered you cannot not be a King’s Man?” “...I think... Therefore I am – according to you! To you and all the rest of you! What happened to my brothers? My brothers, who but a day ago would have risked their life for mine! And now I am a King’s Man!” His anger and resentment was beyond words. With a desperate gleam in his eyes, he raised his fists and looked about like an animal trapped in a cage. Someone laughed. A stone whizzed through the air and hit him on the head. Another followed. The man hid his head under his arms. More stones flew. In a matter of ten minutes, it was done. And nothing happened. The villagers perceived now with horror that they have indeed killed one of their own, an innocent ordinary man. The old man closed his eyes. ALIVE: Morsul Nerwen Inzil Lottie Shasta Manwe PomPom The Phantom sally Boro Steve Brin DEAD: G55, the hesitant King’s Man (modess) – stabbed on Night1 Eomer (ordo) – stoned on Day1 Night people, do your job. KMs, PM me your kill. Elendil, Anarion - names. |
Day 2 Begins!
The night was still and silent. Then, a door opened. The glow of a candle illuminated the street. The candle moved steadily along the street, to the town square. The square was surrounded by buildings and had a well in the middle. All the ways met there, people once said – which was true enough about the village.
The well creaked and groaned as a bucket of water was pulled up. The man with the candle unhooked it from the rope and stood it on the ground. Hearing footsteps behind him, he turned around to face the three approaching men. He laughed quietly. It had no mirth to it. “What would such a noble man be doing outside at this hour?” one of the King’s Men asked sweetly. “No less and no more than getting a drink of water, good sirs,” the man replied, with a hint of mockery in his voice. “A drink of water? What a small thing to pay for with your life, lordling,” the second man said. “At the least my life will be worth more than all of yours put together!” the man replied steadfastly. “Your life? Life, say you? Life? Bah! It has no value. Of cheap things it is the cheapest,” the third King’s Man laughed. “Life! What is life? A chicken has life too, and yet you will not hesitate to eat it!” He laughed again. “Two men have lost their lives by our hands. Now it will be three. And there will be more – all of this beggarly brood, and more – all of the Elendili! What is their life but a thing bound to be lost?” “You are a fool, if you speak so,” the lone man replied majestically. “You do not know how dear life is. You will not know – not until you lose it yourselves. The only reason my life is worth naught to you,” he continued, “is because by taking it you save your own. You are nothing but cowards! Craven!” “If you think this will aid you, you are mistaken, and you will pay dearly for your mistake.” The King’s Men smiled as they advanced. The man stood silent and proud, as though he was not, weaponless and outnumbered, facing the last minutes of his life, but as though he was a king in the head of an army leading his men to victory. They struggled with each other for a long time. But the man was one, when the King’s Men were three. Eventually they held him fast between them, and he, exhausted, could not escape. Two of the men gripped his arms and shoulders, so that he could not move, and the third forced his head into the bucket of water that the man himself raised from the well. “Drink, man, drink!” the King’s Men taunted. “We would not be indebted to you!” And he drank. He breathed in deeply. Once, twice. His body went limp. A pale mist rose over his body and floated slowly to the West, where the last stars still showed against the pale of dawn. The King’s Men stared at his body, unbelieving. How could a man who valued life so much part with it so easily? The stood for a few more minutes, and then walked away, still pondering, leaving the body untouched. When the villagers woke up, they found it lying there, with the face still in the water. ALIVE: Morsul Nerwen Inzil Lottie Shasta Manwe PomPom The Phantom sally Steve Brin DEAD: G55, the hesitant King’s Man (modess) – stabbed on Night1 Eomer (ordo) – stoned on Day1 Boro (gifted) – drowned on Night2 Night people - stop your nightly duties!

Well crap. I suppose that means that stunt he was pulling in #20 was legit, then? I was hoping that he was an Ordo doing a distraction, or perhaps a Baddie laying something false, but I feared he was totally on the level with his hinting, and obviously the baddies agreed....
*sigh* Was he the dream chain, Shasta? |
Well, starting off with yesterday's result. I can't deny I'm relieved. I honestly thought Eomer was Erendil . His vote for Sally was so random based on a post with a promise to return later. I looked at everyone's lists and saw Sally on Zil's I Thought maybe zil was the dreamer revealing Sally to Eomer... apparently not the case.
I voted Sally for some suspicion but mostly that theory, which I tried to hide to protect Eomer. when the votes started coming in I hoped for an Isildur save(thankfully they must have been smarter than me.) Now that doesn't mean I don't find Sally suspicious after all she's trying to call me out for protecting myself(kind of the point of an innocent.) I do however have no plans to vote her again at least today unless something crazy happens. Voted fo Eomer Eonwe Brinn ZIl Sally Brinn and Zil mention Eomer's flip-floppyness on voting as reasons I get that. Eonwe kind of parrots their reasons. Sally votes Eomer because the votes are too close she votes to save herself(that thing I'm supposedly evil for doing) Now to last night's results: Boro gone. A gifted. but which one? if I'm reading into the narration right it's Isildur? Well that stinks but it means That Elendil is still out there which would be good. We'll have to see how this day progresses but things might be getting interesting... |

And I seem to remember someone *ahem* being told that his idea was horrible- the idea about Isildur just going ahead and using his Gift on the Day 1 lynch, because he was probably innocent. Well... The lynch was innocent and Isildur is now dead. Can I say it? Can I say it? :p |
Quote:
Are we trying to say Brinn is evil? Honestly that's the only thing that jumps out but that's part of an example. also well I supposed Boro could be the dreamer And a gifted but what are the chances? but even if that was the case he voted Lottie... EDIT X'ed with Phantom |
Lottie and Morsul, regarding post #20- assume that Boro dreamed about Brin and then reread the post. I believe you'll see it's suddenly shouting "Kill me! Break the chain!" Hence my appeal to Shasta to tell us if things are truly that bad, or if Boro was bluffing in order to preserve the Elendil dreams.
|
So, an ordo down and a Gifted. We don't know which Gifted, but neither do the baddies.
YesterDay, at two minutes before DL, Steve and Sally were tied with two votes, and Eomer had one (mine). Brinn and Sally brought Eomer into the lead, and Steve put it away. I wonder what might be the chances of Brinn, with either Sally or Steve (though probably not both) being packmates? x/d with two phantoms and Morsul |

Yesterday I think I was strongly leaning towards "innocent ploy", but during the Night I reread and I just got very uncomfortable about it, thinking he may have actually given himself away. The "kill me, break the chain" translation- I'm saying that's what the KMs would see within his post (do you follow me?), as setting yourself up as the dreamer (and therefore the dream target the following night) would clearly put oneself at risk if the KMs opted for the chain-breaking option as opposed to the blind shot at Elendil option. |
But anyway- I'm not going to stress any more about it. Perhaps Boro outwitted the KMs and it was strictly a bluff (a risky one as he was Gifted, but still a very good one if it protects both Elendil and the dreams). I'll hope for that until Shasta can tell us what vision he saw.

Okay. Calmer now. Although, hold on. Shasta's a gifted, and Boro too? If Phantom makes three, Gal deserves a prize from me four having the best taste in gifted selection.
EDIT: x'd since #142 |

We'll have to wait for shasta to see if that was the case. if shasta was sent a dream about boro that would mean a wasted chance for us to get another role. revealed. Dang... x'ed a bunch: phantom I'm seeing what you mean with the bluff that'd be an interesting decision. I don't know if I buy it though a gifted would be messing with fire like that. he must've known it would draw attention if that's what he was attempting to do, just hint. |
I find it difficult to see a Borondil putting himself out like that on Day One, whether accidentally or with intent. I like to think we still have Elendil with us.
x/d with Morsul |

So- the KMs are probably socially awkward types. I'm interested in debating guilt/innocence based on this premise and seeing how long it can go before things get ugly... |
