To the Assassin

I am the Traitor. I've been working against this ship, it's true. But now we face a common enemy. It seems clear to me that if the Android is not stopped we both will die. We may die anyway. Who knows what the result will be if we attack the Android? But as I said, I'd prefer to go down fighting than placidly surrender to that mechanical menace.

Are you with me?

Hm, so now reveals are allowed? And I was so careful to only imply things, never say them explicitly.As for whether the assassin is with you or not, Inzil, I'm curious to hear what wintywinty has to say about all this...

Reveals are allowed.

Surviving players may reveal if they choose.[/QUOTE]

And winty is the one I'm waiting to hear from.

Yep. Says so right here:

Well, I've essentially already revealed anyway, so saying it explicitly won't make much difference.

Perhaps. I think we're at an impass until winty appears.

Rikae the Assassin:

Day One

First post (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showpos...5&postcount=27)

Funny how that turned out.

Talking about the hunter right off the bat.

Night Two Pick - Lottie. Learn Lottie's role.

Day Two:

Going after Izzy as top suspect.

That someone else was Wilwa, by the way.

If Izzy's guilty, that points to Wilwa quite nicely (look at her comments on the BG-wagoners), and either an innocent or guilty Izzy would shed light on the BG wagon.
Translation: I'd like to lynch Izzy now, and go after Wilwa toNight.

Night Three Pick - Izzy. Lottie protects me from Android, learns my role, and PMs me a few times. Her top suspect is Pitch for the last morph.

Day Three:
Questioning Izzy so as not to back down too obviously - still, backing down a bit even in first post:

Questioning and suspecting Pitch.

A while back, she asked quite a few questions about the ability of the gifteds to find each other - she seemed a bit too interested, if you know what I mean. At least she was able to successfully protect the... what? werebear's?... target last night.
To Izzy:

Continue questioning Pitch, but then endorse Shasta's plan to go after Paranoia. Now that I look at it, Shasta really manipulated me there by pointing
out how I would be helpless to kill the bear - I wanted to put my skills to good use by leaving what I thought was the wolf for killing that Night.

But since Pitch was lynched, I picked Inzil to hunt. Funny, but I originally intended to hunt Wintywinty ("reverse alphabetical order") but then thought checking Inzil
would be more useful, since he confused me more. At this point, I intended to leave a clear trail for the remaining villagers, since I assumed the baddies were on
to me and I was toast... and so was pretty obvious about my role and my picks:

Because I'd hunted her. Didn't want the village wasting time on her as a morph-suspect.

If the morph kills the assassin and xe left a decent trail, there will be two essentially "known non-morphs" among the remaining players.

Defended Izzy when Shasta suspected her for saying "Wereborg"

Rikae – Good and dead.Goodbye, cruel world! I hope you all get eaten by rats... er, I mean, go village! Rah rah rah!

Fairly nonmorphish:
Inzil
wintywinty

Morphiest:
Paranoia
Pitchwife
Shasta

Because I would have killed her the night before if she were.

Something Noia just said makes me doubt he's the Wereborg - unless you think he's the sort to pull off a bluff in his post putting me down, that is.
Because of his reading of my "ego" about being killed. The real Wereborg knew that he had tried to kill me already, of course.

Last attempt to ensure that I left a good trail for the village.

And as for this morning, before I realized that the traitor could win with me, I asxsumed my only chance was to convince the bear to vote for the traitor
by impersonating the traitor myself.

Hope that clears everything up for both of you.

As for an impasse, Inzil, I would guess the real traitor would have a history of treacherous behavior to show for himself...
so what do you have?

You haven't properly revealed. As in you haven't been truthful.
