Did you get Firefoot's change in 134? and Fea's in 133? I believe I am the only person left voting Holbytlass and they switched from her to Kitanna.

Todays votes (I promise they're accurate):

1 vote for Gil-Galad
1 vote for Mormegil
1 vote for Kath
2 votes for Holby
6 votes for Kitanna

Kitty looks to be lynched, m'lady mod.

All through the day arguments had raged and despite Holbytlass's noble attempt to lay down her life to save her, the mob would not be assuaged. The feisty former hot dog saleswoman and lingerie buyer turned bailiff was doomed.

A few of the villagers hung back but there were enough certain to make what happened inevitable and they dragged her to the gallows and put the noose about her neck.

Just before they released her the words she had used earlier in an attempt to save her skin rang out:

"So go ahead and lynch me, but you're not going even the scores with the wolves"

Her body fell there was a swift crack, Kitanna's body jerked, there were a few soft thuds and a louder "plink" as items fell from her pockets. Then nothing.

The lynch mob got closer. After last night they weren't taking any chances after last night. But it was clear she was completely dead, she had ceased to be, she had joined the choir eternal and very shortly her mortal remains would lie in a grave alongside those of Mithalwen and Oddwen (the later was not particularly large as there had not been so much left to bury alas).

On the ground were a handful of sugar plums and a scrying glass.

Kitanna had not only been innocent. She had been the seer.

Night has fallen. It lasts until 8pm tomorrow unless I hear from all necessary parties sooner .

Guardian

Wolves

Hunter (please - just in case it would be helpful to know who you will take with you in the event of your death)

Wolves 4 Villagers 6.

Mithalwen · 07-07-2005, 06:56 AM

Day dawned rather earlier thatn expected in Midsomer Mawlin and the villagers awoke to a new horror. Well it was new to five of them, to four it would have been familiar and the tenth - well they had gained intimate knowledge of the horror... but they weren't going to be able to tell anyone about it.

On the village green by the gallows was a tall tank with a number of unbelievably fat piranha fish burping as they basked in relatively shallow water. On teh surface floated a homburg hat that everyone recognised as belonging to Durelin. They ran to her cottage - decorated with an interesting mixture of gallic and oriental influences - and found neau trace erv their fellow villager. The did find teaumes of arcane knowledge on lycanthropy and papers with complicated calculations.

Durelin had been trying to protect them but had been unable to protect herself.

Wolves 4 Villagers 5. Enoeuf said?

Mithalwen - Killed by wolves
Gil-Galad(1)- Lynched

NEW RULE PUT YOUR VOTES ON A SEPARATE LINE OR DIE ....

Who decided retractable votes were a good idea?

Oh that was me...

I usually earn my corn doing Accounts and bear in mind there is only one accountancy joke.

What's 2+2?
