Day 3: Poor ahava :(

[enlightenedbum]

Day 2
The Fireworks of the Century



Loxx the Blacksmith decided to skip out on the trial today due to a rather large & esoteric order for 25 metal newt cages. As he was working lonelyahava who had placed the order came in. “Oh how are you ahava? “, “Newt happy at the moment, yourself?”, “Oh I’m better than ever”, “Ain’t that a shame” and with that lonelyahave turned lox into a newt placed him in a cage and took the other cages with her.

Ahava’s next stop was to deal with another villager to get her enough newts to complete that night’s potion. However what she didn’t expect was that a grizzled veteran of colonial militia was waiting with her target and promptly blew her head off with a three barreled musket.

Today spectralspork the local drunk homeless bastard, was on the stand and was completely wasted.

“Spectralspork you are accused of practicing witchcraft how do you plead?”
“I’m nnghh guilfty”
“You heard him your honor he said he was guilty”
“Whaf? I head hoph bilfy”
“Yes you are filthy and hopefully the ridiculous amounts of dirt your body is shedding will not put out the flames, TAKE HIM AWAY”

And thus Spectralspork the convicted witch was burned at the stake for witchcraft. His inebriation was so intense not only did he not feel anything as he burnt to death the flames grew so intense from the alcohol fumes that the ground was barren for the next 75 years.

As people left the flame show of the century an old woman told someone else
"'Ere, did you 'ear about that Tommy lad? Tommy of the Two 'Ands? 'Ee's been spendin' sooooo much time 'round Widow Kime's 'ouse that the pair of 'em just 'ave to be at it like bunnies in spring all hours o' the day! Ah means, af'trall, what else is there t'do 'round Widow Kime's?
Unless young Tommy's after that Widow's cake, Ah 'eard so much 'bout that cake what you wouldn't believe, Ah 'eard! It's got MAGIC in it, an' young Tommy wants 'is cake, an' to eat 'er, too!"

The next day in town the lumberjack took to carousing the town celebrating for some unknown reason and the local herbologist had a “Dirty Hobo’s death” sale.

Results
Loxx – Blacksmith – Newted
Lonelyahava – WITCH – Shot to death during attempted newting
Spectralspork – WITCH – Burned for being a witch

So the guardian kills attackers? That's unfortunate.

Dag yoooooooooooooooo

That is not good.

[enlightenedbum]

Watch the village not read the last line of the narration and fail to catch the big gigantic flashing neon sign (along with Spork's reveal) that the vote will always show witchcraftery.

[lonelyahava]

OOoooOOOOoooOO

KILL THEM ALL!!!!!

OOOoooooOOOOOooOOO

[kime]

I would just like it known that I'm so awesome I've been in both narrations . My evil knows no bounds!

ebum, don't curse it. Really, let the village think they are doing amazingly.

Although darn about Dusda. However, that will probably make him more confident in his previous guesses. One of them was right, and he was almost killed to protect the rest of his list. Or at least, that's how I'm hoping he sees it.

Bye ahava! It was good having you here, evil with us.

[kime]

Also worth noting that Loxx had a role name too. So everyone may have a dummy role, or a small ability, or if we are lucky we actually got two specials. Doubt that, but it's possible. We'll hopefully be able to tell after a couple more newtings. (Just remembered, too, that Loxx apparently had to be killed by someone. So that could be why he has a name.)

It's a little scary though, if we hit the wrong person we die . Or perhaps that is Dusda's ability? His loud laugh right after the narration seemed to me like he knew why ahava died, although I could just be looking into it too much. . .

[enlightenedbum]

I'm pretty sure Spork was actually the beggar and simonwolf is in fact the celebrating lumberjack. So yeah, I'd imagine everyone has a named role in the village.

That would make Sticks probably another Priest or something related based on the narration.

[kime]

*ding ding*, we have a winner with The_Reflection! Now just hope no one catches on. . .

Yeah. . . the good news of everyone having a role is that I'd think Priests are still kind of important, so we probably got a good shot with Keika. Dunno though, we'll see.

[enlightenedbum]

Aw, sad.

Dusda has to go, but I'm not willing to blow another shot at him if he really does have a witchcraft annihilating power. Though I assume it was a guardian thing.

[kime]

Someone knows that Dusda was attacked last night, and that the ability killed a witch. Whether or not it's Dusda or someone else who protected him, we don't know. But since they know it worked once, they're probably going to try it again.

The only question, really, is if it was a one-shot deal or not. I'm thinking not, that's probably just a super-powered guard, so yeah, newting Dusda is probably out of the picture for now.

The problem is I don't see another way to get a vote on him. We've got several days worth of suspicion probably on other people, but Dusda is in the clear for now.

[enlightenedbum]

Yup. So who's on Dusda's list of imminent doom?

On the plus side, lonely was not on the Sticks bandwagon, though she did vote for Spork last night.

[kime]

The Spork thing was big enough to possibly be seen as hiding in the bandwagon.

As of yesterday, Dusda mentioned privately to both lonelyahava and I (separately) that he suspected:

arasaki
SpectralSpork
Tommy2Hands
JaysonFour

Spork is of course dead. I don't recall whom he has accused publicly, but I imagine it runs along those lines. He particularly suspected Arasaki, so we'll probably want to stay away from arasaki for now. Actually, might as well ignore Jayson and Tommy too, just to give Dusda more targets.

[enlightenedbum]

Goodbye Grimmy, your noble sacrifice is appreciated as the village wastes a day.

[kime]

Yep! really, the only kills the village appear to have is the vote and guard-counter. With them wasting the vote, and as long as we are careful and lucky, they shouldn't be making much progress at all. . .

However, Ohtsam, question. Two, actually. What happens in the case of a tie? Does the vote trickle down?[/color]

[kime]

As for kills, we probably want to stay away from Dusda, since he may still be dangerous. And Jayson, arasaki, and Tommy, just to give Dusda ammo. That still leaves a lot of choices, though.

Not including other people that could probably get the vote, perhaps. . . Element Brian and MacGuffin? Jason Todd's been avoiding attention. Kay voted for Spork twice, so for him it may seem like a vengeance kill.

Thoughts?
