(005) Crystal Valley RC2

[Bloodcinder]

Backstory

A small confederacy of enterprising people has developed in a distant world in the midst of a natural land formation known as Crystal Valley. The residents have developed an expertise in refining the plentiful crystal ore there into useful tools, a talent unknown to the outside world.

The confederacy is split into various towns, each with a special pearl created from the most highly refined ore. The residents of each town take turns keeping the pearl a day at time. Whoever has the pearl is the town's judge, devoted to maintaining peace and safety.

Years ago, a dangerous disease was introduced to the region by foreign saboteurs. Those who become infected with it are called fiends. They eventually become violent and murderous. The only known way to identify them is to use the pearls, which react in their vicinity to inform the judges that infected people are in the towns. Fiends can be cured, but often the safety of the towns requires that they be burned to death before they can infect anybody else.

One day, the judge of a particular town contracted the disease. He abandoned the pearl and fled the town, never to be seen again. The remaining residents of the town must utilize the pearl and their individual resources to overcome the threat of infection and murder.


First Morning

I was the judge this morning, and I had the pearl. I realized that it was reacting to monsters, dropped the pearl in the town square, and ran away forever like a big ol' wuss.

(From this point on, I'm the disembodied voice of the host. I can only win the game if nobody manages to get at least three accomplishments as per Host Victory.)

DAMAGE finds the pearl in the morning and is the judge for the first day.


First Day

As per Indicting Nobody, the first day's judge has only one option available to him: to indict nobody. As soon as he wishes to do this, he may. Whether the vote passes or fails, the day will end and the first night will begin after the vote is held.

Take this time to get a feel for each other and what you think the others are trying to accomplish. Plan your strategy for the first night.

If you have questions about the rules at any point, ask them in OOC (http://www.unitedempire.net/forums/showthread.php?t=831), not IC.

(Z and chefTENGU are co-hosts. They are qualified to enforce the rules during the day and bring about nightfall.)

[Z]

Damn monstas always afta my tree fiddy!
South Park reference

Well we know there's at least one amongst us... isn't that right... GIO TAKAHASHI!!!








;)

[chefTENGU]

Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!

So yah.... we're all in the dark and there's something(s) out there that want to take our cheese.

lol so who is an alchemist?

[deathofcheese]

Sssh! Don't say that out loud! Then the monsters will know who to go after!

[Killer_Man_]

Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!

So yah.... we're all in the dark and there's something(s) out there that want to take our cheese.

lol so who is an alchemist?

There is no alchemist, read the rules again.

[Gerrymander]

I waded through the damn rules earlier. You should have too. Lazy!

!!!!!

Grr. :D

[Bloodcinder]

I'm almost positive that the "lol" was meant to indicate that he was making a joke based on the previous rule set... KILLER_MAN_.

[SpaceProg]

I am not not an alchemist. Not.

[DAMAGE]

I want everyone to write out their opinion of the given situation. I will then determine what shall be done. And make it at least half serious.

[Killer_Man_]

I'm almost positive that the "lol" was meant to indicate that he was making a joke based on the previous rule set... KILLER_MAN_.

Well excuse me for not thinking. Jeez.

And to tell you the truth, I have no idea what to say Damage.

[Seegtease]

*yawn*

'Sup guys? Did I sleep in again? Where's Bloodcinder?

yes, I'm going to roleplay for real

[Killer_Man_]

I guess BC decided to leave town cause he's a fag and he left his pants here.

I couldn't help myself and had to say it.

[Gio Takahashi]

Such a pity that happened. What do you guys think we should do.

Z, I'm a Nazi-admin, not a monster.

[Bloodcinder]

Kay, let's try to have DMG's requested information by the time he logs on (this realtime-evening?) so that we can get to the first night.

[SpaceProg]

I really can't think of anything helpful to say right now, as it's too early in the game.
The orb glows, here there be monsters.... and... stuff. *shrugs*

[DAMAGE]

I see that not everyone has gotten a chance to post yet. You have pretty much 12 hours from this post till I get home from work.

If I read the rules correctly, fiends do not have the capability of killing on the first night. So basically, the longer we wait (skip an accusation), the more people have a possibility of dying.

Either that, or everyone can make themselves a dagger. This way, no one will die, and whoever has the pearl can see who it is.

What do you say?

[Bloodcinder]

If I read the rules correctly, fiends do not have the capability of killing on the first night.
Correct. They have to perpetrate two infections before they can get Assault+ and have the ability of murdering.

[deathofcheese]

We're kinda locked into indicting nobody on the first day.

[Jasmin Jaquine]

*Poking her head out of her little home - had been spying on all the boys from her window, finally coming out, but of course, bearing the arm of pepper spray (could you really blame her?? Only girl in the whole valley it seemed!!*

So BC is a chickenshit....and that leaves me with the rest of you? Hmph...I just hope you're all not ebil. Though, can't tell for sure ... yet.

*Eyes Gio the Nazi though!*

[chefTENGU]

We can't know anything until after the first night. I'm waiting to see how the situation might change after everyone has had a chance to do their skills.

[Seegtease]

Woah, the pearl is glowing? Snap, man! Better stockpile some daggers!

[DAMAGE]

We can't know anything until after the first night. I'm waiting to see how the situation might change after everyone has had a chance to do their skills.


the only things reported in the morning are murders or resurrections. so there would be no public sign of a failed murder attempt.

[Bloodcinder]

Correct. However...

The only kind of failed murder attempt there is is one nullified by a dagger, since attempted murders have 100% chance of success unless nullified. Therefore, any failed murder attempt would result in private notification to the target by virtue of the fact that that person would be informed by the host that he used a dagger to nullify a murder attempt.

So... although nothing public would be said about a foiled murder, the person who did the foiling would know that something had happened. If the person was the judge, he would even know who attempted it.

[DAMAGE]

Whatever. Skip the indicting.

[chefTENGU]

Do we all have to agree, or shall I just close the thread so we can get on to night?

[Bloodcinder]

It succeeds regardless. (The first day is something I will clarify slightly in the First Edition. I think I'll probably have the host be the judge on the first day and somehow indict himself to be killed. The first day or first night in any Mafia-variant is always awkward.) So I'm just gonna go ahead and close it.

End of First Day

Y'all have until 3:00 PM EST Sunday to act out nighttime. PM me your activities and I'll get back to you with any pertinent details.

[Bloodcinder]

Second Morning

There is nothing that the general public knows about this morning, but the pearl still indicates the presence of fiends.

(As an aside, the events that occurred last night are very interesting from my point of view! Be assured that the lack of activity known to the public does not indicate a boring or useless night. Indeed, it was quite the opposite. Thus I'm feeling very positive about the game so far.)

The pearl is still held by DAMAGE, and he must give it away to somebody else before the day can start.

[DAMAGE]

I give it to Z.

[Bloodcinder]

The judge is now Z. Since it is not the first day, he may choose to indict somebody instead of nobody.

(Keep in mind this summary of the indictment rules: no indictment can be repeated in the same day, and only three at most can be made. The judge is the only one who can indict somebody, so don't bother "officially accusing" anyone unless your name is Z. Indictments must be made until the three limit is reached, somebody is burned, or the day is passed. A majority vote is more than half. So, with 11 people [the judge himself and the accused always get a vote], the majority is 6. Ask me if further clarification is needed.)

[llama_egg]

om nom nom. Why hello there! om nom nom. Sorry about not being around sooner good chaps, self induced coma and all that! om nom nom. God this is good chicken. om nom nom. Would go perfectly with some tea I suppose! om nom nom. Well good chaps, anyone wanting to fill one in on what happened? om nom nom. Jolly good chicken I do say, what! om nom nom.

[Z]

Thank you, DAMAGE.

I think the we all started out with around 2-3 Ore and most of us likely got a few more Ore last night. The item we really need to start looking into if we want to identify fiends is the Luminary* which costs 6 Ore. Unless someone started out with a Luminary, tonight will likely be our first real chance to start crafting them. If you do not have enough ore for a Luminary, then I would, personally, choose to wait. You could buy a Dagger but that costs 5 Ore and will leave you with only around 2 ore tomorrow morning which will set back your luminary purchase at least a couple of days.

That out of the way, is there any suspects anyone would like to discuss? Any new info?

*(Note: Luminaries can be used on living people, not just corpses)

[Jasmin Jaquine]

*Wandered out of her humble abode, perking at the site of the Pearl and peeling her blues over it while looking over Z's shoulder at the pretty thing.*

I've got nothing. Got a lot of beauty rest last evening, as I'm sure you all can see, and nothing disturbed my slumber.

[Killer_Man_]

I think we should wait one more night before we start randomly burning people.

[chefTENGU]

I've got nothing to add. Nothing helpful, anyway. Z's right, the luminary is the key to victory.

[Z]

I think we should wait one more night before we start randomly burning people.
Keep in mind that there are fiends among us and they are active. Every night we pass is another night that we put ourselves in danger. I would very much encourage anyone and everyone to come forward with suspects.

If we have to pass, we have to pass but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. There are still plenty of people we haven't heard from.

[SpaceProg]

I guess crafting Luminaries would help, but daggers also would protect individuals from being bumped off. Which to concentrate on first...?

[chefTENGU]

Tonight is the last free night any of us have before murders begin.

[Z]

I guess crafting Luminaries would help, but daggers also would protect individuals from being bumped off. Which to concentrate on first...?
Personally, I'd go for Luminaries.

And I say that mostly because this game is won on accomplishments, not the extermination of fiends. A fiend extermination simply ends the game.

[SpaceProg]

Well, killing who tries to kill you will help in achieving that, though... You can't get accomplishments while dead.

[Killer_Man_]

Yeah but sadly, it takes about two nights to get the required mats.

[SpaceProg]

CATCH 22s SUXOR.
Okay, I'm for luminaries too, I suppose.

[Bloodcinder]

I think the we all started out with around 2-3 Ore...
According to the Items rule, everybody starts with 3 ores.

Well, killing who tries to kill you will help in achieving that, though... You can't get accomplishments while dead.
Keep in mind that Daggers merely nullify attempted murders: they don't kill the one attempting. As well, nobody would know who assaulted him unless 1) the perpetrator chose to do it non-anonymously (which would be generally unwise) or 2) the victim had the pearl. So having a Dagger wouldn't necessarily help defeat the fiends.

[llama_egg]

om nom nom. Both are good idea's I suppose, sort of like chicken and pork. om nom nom. But is it smart to throw all our eggs into the same pot? om nom nom. Hmm, eggs would be quite brilliant right about now! om nom nom.

[Bloodcinder]

I think your character this time is more ridiculous than the one from Snowbound 1, but it's certainly less suspicious.

[SpaceProg]

That's true, about just nullifying... I don't know where I got the idea that it killed them... but still, it would prevent you from dying and live to make stuff another day. But I'm still for crafting lumes now.

[Z]

But is it smart to throw all our eggs into the same pot?

It's really just situational. Right now we have no leads and no suspects. There is also the new possibility of murder this next night, as chef pointed out. If anyone has any reason to believe their life is in danger, I would hope they would tell us why they believe so and also take the necessary precautions to prevent it.

However, if we all craft daggers tonight, we will have nothing new to share tomorrow morning and we'll all be crippled as far as available ores. It doesn't have to be everyone but someone (preferable some people) will need to make a luminary. We also need to start utilizing private chats in order to better tell when someone is feeding us misinformation.

[Seegtease]

Well I know somebody out there is almost capable of making a luminary, because some jerk jacked two of my ores. That's like, a night's work wasted! Stop thievin' me and make your OWN ores.

[Z]

According to the rules, there should at least be two people who can make it (Someone with Refine Specialty or Sleep Specialty) Whoever has the Craft Specialty should be able to use it at the same time the others do, though, if they don't spend their ores tonight and, rather save them until tomorrow to get the Luminary.

[Gio Takahashi]

Nothing happened to me, but I'll see if I can make some luminaries as well.

[Bloodcinder]

According to the rules, there should at least be two people who can make it (Someone with Refine Specialty or Sleep Specialty) Whoever has the Craft Specialty should be able to use it at the same time the others do, though, if they don't spend their ores tonight and, rather save them until tomorrow to get the Luminary.
Although every starting human has one specialty, there is no guarantee that all specialties are covered or that there are roughly equivalent numbers of people with each.

[Killer_Man_]

So, Mr.Z, what are we going to do?

[Z]

I guess everyone's spoke up since the morning started. I suppose since there are no named suspects, all we can do is pass.

All in favor?

[Jasmin Jaquine]

I've got no suspicions about anyone. Everyone seems to be acting all "normal-like". So Pass for my vote.

[llama_egg]

om nom nom. I agree on said pass. om nom nom. Now may we depart, I believe I smell loaf of meat! om nom nom.

[Gio Takahashi]

Yes, let's pass.

[Seegtease]

Passing might well be the best option for tonight.

[Bloodcinder]

If you count Z as voting on the pass as well, there's 5 votes of a required 6. Otherwise, there's 4 votes of a required 6. Either way, 2 more people will bring the day to an indictment-free end.

[Killer_Man_]

I already said pass earlier, it's the only way.

[Bloodcinder]

Clarification of Z's vote or one additional vote to pass will end the day. (Co-hosts can handle this if I don't get to it promptly.)

[SpaceProg]

Piss. Er, Pass.

[Bloodcinder]

The day ends with no indictment.

End of Second Day.

The deadline is 6:00 PM EST Thursday.

[Bloodcinder]

Third Morning

There is nothing that the general public knows about this morning, but the pearl still indicates the presence of fiends.

The pearl is still held by Z, and he must give it away to somebody else before the day can start.

Begin Third Day

[Z]

I pass the pearl to SpaceProg.

New info, anyone?

[Gio Takahashi]

Nope, nothing new.

[SpaceProg]

Yay, I've got the glowy thing. *Tosses it up and catches it repeatedly* So, anything suspicious happen last night? Anybody get awoken by teeth to the forehead? Any limbs missing?

[Jasmin Jaquine]

No surprise visits to me. Was a very uneventful night.

[Seegtease]

At least that bastard thief didn't bust into my shack again.

[Jasmin Jaquine]

Maybe he was too busy busting into someone else's shack.

[Seegtease]

Your's?

[Jasmin Jaquine]

Nope, I did not have a visit from the Anti-Santa man last night. It was all quiet and peaceful and I enjoyed my DVR-ed episodes of South Park with no interruptions.

[Seegtease]

Who got robbed, then? I guess it's possible that nobody did, but there's no harm in admitting it.

[Z]

Likely no one, considering everyone probably did a lot of crafting last night (hopefully).

[SpaceProg]

Anyone have any suspicions to accuse someone, or do we pass agane? I gotta say the suspense of what's happening where and when and to whom is making the game interesting.

[Killer_Man_]

Likely no one, considering everyone probably did a lot of crafting last night (hopefully).

I think you and craft + sleep+.

Nothing new to report. I really hope someone lumed someone.

[Z]

I gotta say the suspense of what's happening where and when and to whom is making the game interesting.
Yeah, private discussion being enabled definitely puts a twist on the game but it also apparently means the first 3 days are on auto-pass until people can use luminaries.

And, no, I don't have any current suspicions (mostly because I don't have any current evidence of anything, lol)

Tomorrow we should definitely be able to bring some info to the table.

[Bloodcinder]

Since there can't possibly be a murder before the third night, I think people are loath to start accusing folks... publicly.

[deathofcheese]

I haven't really heard or seen anything. I guess I must be the town recluse. Suits me. As long as fiends leave me alone too.

[SpaceProg]

Well, just thought that there'd been a lume crafted by now, or some fiend suspicions otherwise. Well, if we're all agreed, care to pass tonight as well?

[chefTENGU]

I'm starting to get paranoid about who's gonna get murdered, but with little else to go on, I'm eager for night so I can try to get more done...

[SpaceProg]

Okay then I guess that's two for passing on to nightfall?

[Bloodcinder]

If passing is the official indictment, please make it explicit before counting votes.

[SpaceProg]

Ah, well, I suggest officially that we pass to nightfall again. All for it, say Aye, or eye, or AIEEEE!

[Z]

Aye. Tomorrow, though, I will probably be much less inclined to pass anymore.

[chefTENGU]

Aye from me as well.

[Gio Takahashi]

Eye, eye.

[Killer_Man_]

I'm going to abstain from voting because I'm half and half. Being paranoid of being murdered and as well the sheer fact that we have no info.

[llama_egg]

om...nom...Ugh, to many...sticks...butter...om...nom. I personally don't want to end this here. om nom nom. I am much to tender, a prime picking to be eaten! om *sob* nom nom.

[SpaceProg]

Llama Egg is the King of Town!

[DAMAGE]

It's funny. The more we keep passing nights, the more monsters are out there. They can literally every night. If there is only 1 monster in the beginning, then the next night there are 2, then 4, then 8 if we pass this time. I'm also assuming that there are 2 monsters as well.

[SpaceProg]

Which is why if anyone's crafted a luminary, it'd be wise to use it on whoever they feel is suspicious. Even if it is a crap shoot.

[Z]

It's funny. The more we keep passing nights, the more monsters are out there. They can literally every night. If there is only 1 monster in the beginning, then the next night there are 2, then 4, then 8 if we pass this time. I'm also assuming that there are 2 monsters as well.
I'm more than willing to try and accuse if you have someone in mind. However, no one has named a suspect or a reason they are suspicious yet. Tomorrow, hopefully we will be able to change that.

[deathofcheese]

I vote to pass the day without accusation. I know that I've got enough ore now to finally do something with, so after tonight, I should be in a better position to go fiend-hunting.

My llamanese is getting better. :D

Translation: I do not want to pass to end the day. I might get eaten by Fiends.

[DAMAGE]

I say we burn all the RPers.

[SpaceProg]

That would be a quick way to end the game altogether... :p

[Killer_Man_]

Sadly, it takes three nights to even get to a Lum, sometimes four unless you have the refine+ skill...

Even then someone is going to get aced tommorrow.

[Bloodcinder]

I guess Luminaries are expensive for a reason, hehe. (Read: yes, the cost of Luminaries was roughly one night longer to achieve than the cost of Daggers and Elixirs on purpose.)

What I do find amusing is that everybody is clamoring for Luminaries before making any accusations of infection, but... it's unverifiable anyway. Come tomorrow, everybody will be claiming that so and so is a so and so. How are you gonna make a decision then?

And what information will you have to go on tomorrow? If somebody is murdered, what can you get out of that? There are no apparent enemies so far in public, so there will be no suspects still.

I'm not trying to steer your votes, but... well, I'm offering an outside perspective as a disembodied voice with no life at stake, hehe.

[Z]

We also need to start utilizing private chats in order to better tell when someone is feeding us misinformation.
I currently have about 3 people in the game that I have chatted with that I trust more than the rest, so far. A lot of evidence will be brought about tomorrow, especially if someone falsely accuses one of the people that I have come to trust for this game. Also, each person with a luminary that truly uses it will truly know (rather than be guessing) who is who so even if they don't necessarily have the support to accuse said person, they should still be able to adjust their strategy accordingly with the new info.

But like I said from Day 1, if anyone has suspects and reasons for suspicions, I'm all ears.

While this one is admittedly weak, I'll offer it considering it's just about all I've got. It's starting to seem weird, to me, that deathofcheese keeps mentioning fiends in all of his posts, as if overly working to make sure he and fiends are considered separate whereas I've seen very few other people who I believe are truly innocent do that.
deathofcheese: I vote to pass the day without accusation. I know that I've got enough ore now to finally do something with, so after tonight, I should be in a better position to go fiend-hunting.

deathofcheese: I haven't really heard or seen anything. I guess I must be the town recluse. Suits me. As long as fiends leave me alone too.

It just seems like someone who would put forth consistent effort to portray himself as not being a fiend may actually be one and trying to hide it.

However, like I said, it's weak and I'm not changing my pass vote but there's the first cited suspect of the game.

[Bloodcinder]

A lot of evidence will be brought about tomorrow, especially if someone falsely accuses one of the people that I have come to trust for this game. Also, each person with a luminary that truly uses it will truly know (rather than be guessing) who is who so even if they don't necessarily have the support to accuse said person, they should still be able to adjust their strategy accordingly with the new info.
Actually, that makes sense. I forgot about the fact that private knowledge rivals public knowledge in usefulness. I stand corrected!

[SpaceProg]

It's okay. We know even you can have brain farts.

[Seegtease]

Z makes a good point about deathofcheese, but I'm going to pass anyway. Even a human would be paranoid about being thought to be a fiend, but who knows?

[Bloodcinder]

With that final vote, SpaceProg's indictment of nobody (to pass the day) carries.

End of Third Day

The deadline for PM submissions is 11:00 PM EST tomorrow (Sunday). Please don't push the deadline. It's very annoying.

Begin Third Night

[Bloodcinder]

(The deadline was ignored, but it doesn't matter anyway, because everybody got in in time.)

Fourth Morning

The town seemed rather quiet this morning. Nobody was quite sure who was missing until they did a head count.

Unfortunately, on top of their fiend infestation, Gerrymander died from a heart attack. (Remember how he dropped out? Well, he got three strikes quite understandably, so I killed him, hehe.)

Perhaps more unfortunately, there was another death, but this one was not at all natural. The corpse of one of the town's citizens was found inside of his house after it was apparent that Gerrymander was not the only missing person. Although the corpse was heavily mutilated, it was not beyond identification. Killer_Man_ had been murdered.

(KM can be resurrected using an Elixir because he was murdered. However, Gerrymander cannot because he was not murdered.)

Begin Fourth Day

From yesterday SpaceProg is the judge and must give the pearl away to somebody else before the new day's business can begin.

(Those still alive are Zac, SP, Llama, Gio, Doc, Chef, DMG, Zeit, and JJ.)

[SpaceProg]

I choose to pass the pearl to Zeit.

[Seegtease]

Alright then, I'll take the burden. I suppose nobody is going to fess up for this crime, but does anybody have any worthwhile leads?

[Gio Takahashi]

Sorry that I can't help. I didn't pick up anything noteworthy to report.

[SpaceProg]

Nothing happened to me and I didn't witness anything, though I guess it's not exactly a smart fiend who'd do stuff right in front of the pearl-holder... I've got nothing, to report. Sorry.

Real pity about Gerry and KM though.

[chefTENGU]

I'm left scratching my head. I only know who it COULDN'T have been...

[deathofcheese]

Wasn't me. The only thing I did last night was make a Dagger so that what happened to KM won't happen to me.

[llama_egg]

om nom erm. Wait what? Quite a distasteful thought I do say! I hope that fiend gets indigestion! om nom nom. What? No reason to let good food go to waste! om nom nom. Anyones out there has any idea who Mr. Stabby.mc.staberson is? om nom nom.

Idea's, oh yes, idea's I do say what!

...

om nom nom.

[Z]

Sorry it took so long to respond to this (the result of the report kinda changed my plans a little so I had to wait for some people to come online to rearrange them).

As I mentioned yesterday, I suspected deathofcheese as a fiend so I used my lum on him last night. My luminary report this morning confirms that deathofcheese is a fiend. I do not think he is the one that directly killed Killer_Man_, however, but I don't think that matters right now.

Someone else will need to do the luminary check next time around as I am tapped for the next few nights (gotta get to 6 ore, craft it one night, then use it another night so I'm info-less for 3 nights now).

[deathofcheese]

Either your luminary was defective or you're outright lying. Someone else check please. At least that way it can be made certain that either Z himself has something to hide or everyone's out to get me. If the second luminary report come back positive, I'll accept my sentence of witch-burning. However, I doubt we should condemn someone on the potentially-fabricated "evidence" of one person's accusal.

[Z]

Hopefully someone else lum'd him last night since I pointed him out the day before. If so, we can easily confirm this today.

If not then all I can do is ask for people to publicly vouch for me. I have talked to quite a few people privately trying to organize and I gave them the report much earlier today so we can start working on the next suspect (as noted in my post before this and the reason for my delay) so they have known the results for a while.

In any case, the murders are beginning to happen so I heavily advise that we do not pass yet again on this, especially when we have hard evidence.

[chefTENGU]

I can't say much about DoC, but I can vouch for Z. He's actually one of the people I know couldn't have been the killer last night.

I lumed Z myself, and he tested positive for human. I don't think he'd make an accusation like this flippantly.

[Seegtease]

Well. That's more of a lead than I had. Good to have somebody confess their luminaries, they'd be pretty pointless otherwise. And with what chef said, Z has no reason to be lying, I think.

I think it's a good time to start counting votes for the indictment of deathofcheese.

[Z]

I obviously vote Guilty.

Vote GUILTY
1) Zeitgeist [Presumed]
2) Z
3) SpaceProg
4) Gio Takahashi
5) JJ

UNDECIDED
Llama
Doc
Chef
DMG


Majority is 5 People

[SpaceProg]

Well... Chef makes a good case for it. I have to go with indictment of DoC as well.

[Gio Takahashi]

I can only guess on who could not be killers, and logically DoC is more likely to be one of them. Therefore, I will vote Yea.

[Bloodcinder]

Gio, your post doesn't make sense. Clarify?

[Seegtease]

He may have used a luminary. Details on that would be useful!

[Gio Takahashi]

I clarified with my post. My guess is based on my private discussions.

[Bloodcinder]

Okay, I get the English now. Thanks.

[Jasmin Jaquine]

Death to the DeathofCheese! (i.e. Voting Guilty)

And no, I have no information of interest to actually add at this point.

[Seegtease]

Jasmin! Where have you been?

[Z]

JJ's vote makes the majority. Deathofcheese has been found Guilty and is burned by the mob.

End of Fourth Day

The deadline for PM submissions to Bloodcinder is 11:00 PM EST tomorrow (Thursday).

[Bloodcinder]

Thank you, Z.

Recall that those who die by burning cannot be resurrected. DoC, you can still communicate from beyond the grave, but only privately.

[Bloodcinder]

I have all of the PM's in, but I don't have time tonight to handle it. The game will get updated sometime tomorrow before 2:00 PM EST, I think.

[Bloodcinder]

Fourth Morning

When everybody woke up this morning, they found that Gio Takahashi had been mutilated and left dead in the street.

In addition, when the pearl exchange was ready to happen, its reaction to the fiends present was too much, and it shattered into pieces. There were no humans left. The village was lost to the infection.
