    Two furious eyes of amber fire flickered faintly, illuminating two giant goat horns beset in obsidian fur.

    The eyes glared at <Bradicus Maximus>, incinerating him instantly.

    *snip*

    But Bradicus? Yeah. That one's on the demons, for sure.
    Amber eyes cast their vision on <Obifett>, melting the armored figure into a horrid ooze of ash and iron.

    While I have to admit that I don't completely understand why Bradicus was killed by demons and Obi was killed by demons, there is this:
    Normal villagers will be just be bolded in death. Specials are blue, demons are red, OSA is goldenrod, and shards are purple.

    I guess OSA is the big bad demon leader or something? Either way, Obi was definitely killed by a demon of some kind, and the vote for you is thus justified. If you turn up village, GtC is likely a dead man.

    Rust dragged Jacob's body to an out-of-the-way spot. He removed the corpse's coat and, after laying the body in a dignified funereal posture, covered his associate's head. He muttered something vaguely prayerlike, then just sat there and wished desperately for a good, strong scotch. Hell, even a shitty, weak grog would do.

    If you were wrong about that elixir, we're gonna have words in the afterlife... you manky fucker.

    A man would prefer not to be a dead man. The others must use their own judgement on this matter, a man has no part in it -- only to pass along the message of a friend who has passed.

    As a reminder, a man has cast his own vote for the ruffian kime.

    Shh, let Retaba wait. He's not bothering anybody.

    Now, Shalmelo is something of an expert on being the mafia, so I didn't see his criticism of Zonugal as remotely defensive. He made a really good point, which I agree with. I didn't realize Zonugal was new, but I also knew he was in no danger of getting voted out yesterday. It was just a hunch, but now I find Zonugal's hyper-defensive posture downright suspicious. I'll wait and see what shakes out, but for now I've got my eye on him.

    Good morning, everyone! Did we have fun last night or what? I went to the future and started reading a story called The Walking Dead, and I must say, there is a character that is giving me marvellous interior decorating ideas.

    Heads. All your heads, in endless tanks of water, lining the wall of a great hall. Just picture it. You would be part of an epic tapestry for all time, or at least until I ran out of fish food.

    Do I have any volunteers?


    !Xenogears of Bore, I do believe someone told me you might be interested? You really should stop hiding behind all those perfectly inconspicuous posts.

    I suppose we should be happy that there's one less shard to worry about. But I hope there's a way to remove shards from players without killing them, because having to hunt down both the shard-holders and the mafia seems like a tall order.

    I don't get where this theory about the shards splitting or propagating is coming from, unless it's that mysterious purple flash in the narration. If that's the case, I think it's a poor interpretation of what happened. The death toll at the bottom of the narration is pretty clear that Infidel was the recipient of two separate effects: purple flash and flies. Also, the OP flat-out states that we shouldn't read too much into the narrations. I agree with Langly, in that there's no evidence at this time to support any theories about splintering, shifting, or propagating shards.

    We should stick to what's before us and not go chasing phantoms.

    Agreed. It's possible that there's some mechanic that punishes people who kill a shard, but we're not going to know until everything's said and done. As long as the shard removers are doing their jobs, we just need to keep focused on demon hunting.

  • jdarksunjdarksun Struggler VARegistered User regular
    On my phone right now or I'd do it, but does anyone have a rate of vote accrual for yesterday?

  • SaberOverEasySaberOverEasy Info Broker Registered User regular
    Speaking of which, we've got a bunch of village bandwagons over the first few days. I'm guessing the mafia has just been laying low and letting us devour ourselves. Taking a quick look through Magic Box, Cayrus has a day 1 throwaway on Langly and was the fourth person on the MrT bandwagon yesterday.

    Oh ho ho, it seems my day 1 hunch on Cayrus might pay off! :rotate:

    Austin had been discussing a business arrangement with Kodassa. They shook hands as Austin's lips curled at the corners of her mouth. They're business concluded, Austin returned to the regular discussion.

    "So what's this? We have an Obi call that we're not going to follow through? XoB has angered the almight Acquiantance? What have you people been up to."

    A man was told by a Mandalorian that, should he die this night by a demonic hand, one named Phyphor should be offered up to the red god.

    So when yesterday did Obi tell you that?

    Cayrus was the 6th person on MrT - it's just 2 people before him later moved their vote. Not sure if that makes a difference for you.

    So this might be fun:
    1. Vig Dies
    2. Player says that dead vig player contacted them and said Suspect is a demon if vig dies
    3. Everyone wagons Suspect
    4. Suspect turns out to be clean. Everyone wagons Player.
    5. Player is invincible mafia. OOPS
    6. It's now day 5 with no dead demons, and no voting record.

    that's the thing. It's a move that the village has no defense against except ignore every mafia call ever. Which is why, without a vig call their kills, i am skeptical about a network forming.
