Pitch, your vote was too late to count.

Wilwa has been lynched. A mere ordo.

Inziladun · 08-26-2010, 07:24 PM

The trapped people settled in for another day of trying to figure out who the killers among them were. Various comments, accusations, and defenses were bandied about as time wore on. The majority eventually decided the one they most feared was Wilwa.

"No!" She cried. "I couldn't hurt anyone! Don't let them get away with this!"

"Whatever," said Nerwen . "In you go."

"That's right," added Greenie. "No more stalling."

Casting frightened glances around the room, Wilwa tremblingly walked into the chamber. Nerwen shut the door.

"Now," said skip. "Where to send her? Or it?"

"Hmm," said Nerwen. "What's that button there? "RNDM DST"? Does that mean the year will be random?"

"I guess so," said Greenie. "Doesn't matter anyway, if she's not human."

Skip pressed that button, then the large one in the middle.

"Nooo!" "I didn't do anything! The butterflies need me!"

"Gzzthktkk" went the noise from the chamber.

They all walked to the window and looked in.

But Wilwa was gone.

Boro sat in his room in deep thought, holding the specially modified IPOD. He wanted desperately to stop the evil mechanoids from killing anyone this night. Who will they want now?, he thought to himself. Think.

Finally, he made up his mind who he would try to protect, grasped the IPOD firmly, and opened his door. Standing before him was one of his housemates, grinning at him menacingly. It's you! he thought, but did not have the time to say. For at that moment it shot out a hand and grabbed his throat, forcing him back into his room. He did the only thing he could think of: he pressed the button for the EMP pulse.
The fiend made a startled, mechanical noise, "EEMMRRR!", and let go.

Gasping for breath, Boro ran for the door. He didn't get one step out into the hall before the robot's mate, which had been in the hallway keeping a lookout, came to its fellow's aid.

It saw the device in Boro's hand and clamped its own hand on Boro's wrist, forcing him to drop the IPOD. The first robot, by now recovered from its momentary mental fugue, stomped hard on it, smashing it to bits. It grabbed Boro in a choke hold and yanked his head as hard as it could into the room's window, which of course had been bricked up. Boro shuddered, and lay still.

The two mechanical beings quickly left the room, glad to have a troublesome obstacle out of their way.

Noooo! Oh, honey, why? *weeps*

Okay. That's it. Heads will roll.

Loslote · 08-27-2010, 07:07 PM

Ranger + Night-kill should be good. This is not good. Thus, something clearly is wrong, and we ought to get rid of the silly people who messed with the variables to produce a less than optimal result.

Also,

I'm having yet another RPG night so I can't really concentrate on playing right now, but I'm here every now and then.

I know we shouldn't presume there are hints in the narrations, but it looks like Boro actually decided to protect one of the wolves. Interesting. When somebody goes through his posts (I would do it but my darlings might kill me), they should probably also pay attention to whoever he possibly found worth protection.

I am displeased about the wilwawagon and wouldn't be the least bit surprised if there was a wolf/cobbler involved. She was just way too easy a lynch - would she really have spoken so strongly against lynching EW if she had been his fellow?

Sally and Pitch, why did you leave voting until so late?

I think the "opened his door" think refered to Boro's own door. If it had refered to a wolf's door, it would've been a really strong hint, though.

This. I mean it's not so bad for me, because I semi-trust a few people, but I was almost certain he was innocent. Now both my princes are dead, as well as my beloved muffin. What shall I do?

Exactly the reason I mentioned last night. My internet kept blinking out. And, again as I mentioned last night, I was out most of the day/evening at work and visiting friends and their unforunately non-were-spawn. *pets him* I was busy.

For the record, I had planned to vote Eomer, because I didn't like our odds of ambushing two people in a row and getting good results both times. That and I noticed that Greenie voted Wilwa, which for reasons I can't currently remember made me very uneasy. I'd decided Eomer was the better choice, but wasn't able to submit my vote in time, for which I apologize.

Not to me. Why do you think that?

Well, I feel bad about voting her, of course– but I had to vote early, and she looked the best bet at the time. As I pointed out yesterDay, she actually didn't really "speak out strongly" against lynching The Wolf-Warrior – it was a pretty mild, non-committal defence, such as I thought a prudent wolf might perhaps try at the last minute. Okay, I was wrong.

That said, I can't say I'm all that happy with the other Wilwa-voters.
