Werewolf CXIII: Death at Deadmen's Dike - GAME THREAD - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Galadriel55 · 01-03-2018, 09:17 PM

The villagers woke up to find themselves one creature short. They searched the rocks and crags for any signs of the one missing from their number, though without much hope. At last they found, almost hidden in the grass, an elegant looking tea cup, with what looked like the remains of a bloody cocktail inside. Beside the cup lay a bicorne hat, ownerless and forgotten.

LIVING
Boro - a warg bred for a single purpose, never being on time
Pitch - undead vampire bat
Huinesoron - inverted gorcrow
Shasta - squinting red eyes

DEAD
Rune - wolf, lynched D1
Inzil - ordo, killed N2
Nerwen - Ranger, lynched D2
Morsul - Seer, killed N3
Lalaith - ordo, lynched D3
Sally - ordo, killed N4

So... that was BoroMoon voting to protect PitchWolf, right? After voting yesterday in a way that looked like it was against him but actually (by timing) was safe?

I still can't see how Pitch is a wolf, but I don't think Boro can be, and if it's Shasta, then... I don't even know. Then well played, I guess. I think a Boro-Shasta team would have lynched Pitch, because Lalaith would be more likely than innocent!Pitch to kill me tomorrow.

And now we have two goodies and two baddies, so it all comes down to timing, and I don't even have the luxury of hanging around to see what happens (I woke up at 3am (and again at 3.35) for this...). So:

++Pitch

On the word of our confirmed innocent and the behaviour of BoroMoon.

Shasta, I hope you're around, because it's first to two.

hS, staggering back to the tree one last time

I actually think none of you 3 are the wolf...it would be quite a good play if it was Shasta. Sally would be rolling over in her grave chucking glitter everywhere. She had done so well...too well actually

Me neither, unfortunately.

++Huey

For buddying up to me and then turning on me when it suits him. Never trust a gorcrow!

Back to bed, see you later (or not). Á vala Nerevar!

And here I was just going to vote for myself because I haven’t the faintest clue. Oh well going with my gut.

Well done, Moon Moon! Come and join me in the feast!

Huinesoron · 01-04-2018, 03:51 AM

Aww, and I had all these big long posts I was going to write to fill the time while waiting to see if Boro or Shasta got back first.

So be it. At least I don't have to live with my guilt for failing the creatures of Deadmen's Dike.

hS, fluttering invertedly to the heart of the city to meet his fate

PS: As I'm sure I'll say again later (several times - it's me, I talk, you know this), well played to the both of you. And to Shasta for spotting the last wolf on Day Two - sorry I didn't listen!

You're not the only one. I was planning a song parody to keep you guys entertained while I waited to be lynched, but no such luck.

Shasta, I'm sorry - well not really, of course, but you deserved better after spotting me out of the gate. If it's any consolation, on D2 my wife kept asking me 'Are they suspecting you yet?', and I kept telling her 'No, but Shasta hasn't posted yet' - and then 'Here he comes. Bingo!'
