Quarryman

Happy birthday ISC!

This at least is partially a lie. On Day 1 I voted for Casey, at at time when it looked like it would become a bandwagon against her. On Day 2 I was far from being the last to vote for Carly. On Day 3 I'll admit I was pretty quick to vote for Ralphy, however, four out of the first five to vote for Ralphy have been confirmed as Villagers now. On Day 4 I was indeed the last to vote for Casey, something no sane Cultist would have done. On Day 5 I was the fourth to vote for Maurice, and did so after you did actually. And yes, yesterday I was indeed the last to vote for Horace, and again, a sane Cultist wouldn't have done that. So Shawna, if you actually are a Villager, and that I die today, I'm looking forward to hearing you admit in the afterlife that you were both wrong and stupid today. And I don't see how the hell all this is supposed to make sense since you, if you're a Cultist, could have won yesterday, but I guess I've been a useful idiot to keep alive until the end since I am a pretty daft old goat after all. Vote: Shawna Sheep (Shadows).

Happy birthday darkie!

"Right, it could have gone better, but it's not too bad. Nothing like a certain battle I was in lately that involved an seemingly infinite number of direwolves.." "Anyway, Columbus, take a Lightning bomb and bombard Zephyroth from the back row, if you hit him he'll be out of the equation." "I shall cast another Darkness spell at Boreal from the back row."

Hmm, yes, I kinda forgot about Cameron saying that. Not that this gets us much closer though..

One thing that really bothers me about yesterday, if Shawna was a scummy Cultist she and her cultist buddies could likely have managed to win then if they could get a Villager lynched, but no, Shawna pushed hard to get Horace lynched, and sacrificing one of your own when you're that close to winning doesn't make sense. (and Shawna loves winning, or at least that's what she's been saying during counselling, meh-eh-eh-eh-eh..). So, yesterday doesn't make much sense to me if the assumption is that Shawna is scum. I think it's quite possible though that Shawna is a serial killer and needs to win alone.

Uh.. I feel the weirdness kinda escalated a bit now. And I can't make any sense out of anything.

You forgot Alexander Vandangant, William Harkenshire and Raven Ashcroft. They still need to appear in the battle order in case someone revives them.

*sigh* This old goat is feeling very silly and useless. So I've tried to remember the days that have gone by, especially all the things our dear mayor said yesterday. And this might very well be the last thing I do here in Winter Haven, vote: Horace Horse (iamded). Meh-eh-eh-eh...

(OoC: Doh! Of course he did, I keep thinking of this whole situation as one battle, silly me. ) Namyrra looks around for Xut and realizes the little bugger has gone back to whatever weird plane of existence he usually hangs around in.

"Okay guys, we're almost done! Let's run and join our friends in the last battle!" Namyrra grabs Columbus and with Xut following runs to the Southern battle. "Xut, go hit Eurose!" "Columbus, please bombard Zephyroth with one of your lightning bombs from the back row." "And personally I shall cast two Darkness spells at Boreal from the back row." "Benji, if you'd put Xut first in the battle order that would be really splendid!"

Meh-eh-eh-eh-eh This mess is more than a poor old goat can take in. I need to go ponder my vote a bit more, though I fear it won't mean much either way.

Seeing a lot of heroes running to aid her group in the northern battle Namyrra had to come up with a new battle order. (OoC: seeing as -obelix- hasn't posted since Monday can we please get this moving without him, thanks. ) Updated battle order North: Xut Columbus Cortes Namyrra Namyrra Hybros Cinna Erik Tyrvarr Dreyrugr Nerwen Thalion

I'll be there, and we're a really large contingent of Brikkelauget members coming this year.

Meh-eh-eh-eh-he Yes, I'm very sorry about my lack of contributions so far, I have every intention of changing that today. And yes, I did vote for Casey early on in the first day, and at the time when I did it Casey looked like the clear lynch candidate, after my vote there were five votes against Casey, and only three against Petey. So if anything it looked like there would be a bandwagon against Casey. No scum would have done that, there is no need to vote for one of your own on Day 1. And Cameron, that is very interesting information indeed, I'm looking forward to hearing what Shawna has to say for herself.

"Nerwen, that would indeed be a much better solution, thank you!" "Xut, new target, go hit the Werehyena instead." "I shall cast two Darkness spells at Boreal from the back row." "Now, if everything goes according to plan this should ensure that we take out everyone except Boreal."

Battle order North: Xut Columbus Namyrra Nerwen Namyrra Thalion "Xut, go hit Boreal again." "Columbus, please use your Lightning Bomb to bombard the Werehyena from the back row." "I shall cast a Darkness spell at Boreal from the back row, and with my second action I shall use a Phoenix Essence on Thalion, can't have the little guy miss out on all the fun in his first battle!" "Nerwen, it would be splendid if you could attack the Werehyena, Columbus' bombardment should take care of the others."

Moved it here since I think it shouldn't be discussed in the quest. It seems this is one more of the rules where the QMs aren't doing it right then. Because in Quest #18 (where summoning was first used), and in Quest #27 the summoned spirit did damage on the turn they were summoned, (haven't gotten around to checking more quests) while in Quest #33 and the Unlimited Quest the spirits did not do damage.

(Ooc: uhm, shouldn't Xut have done damage to the Hobgoblin the round he was summoned?) Northern group battle order: Xut Columbus Namyrra Namyrra Nerwen Thalion "Xut, go hit Boreal hard." "I shall cast Two Darkness spells at Boreal from the back row." "Columbus, bombard the Werehyena with your Fire bomb from the back row please."

Battle order Northern group Namyrra Namyrra Nerwen Columbus Thalion "Columbus, please bombard the Werehyena Rioter with your Ice bomb from the back row" "I shall cast a Darkness spell at Boreal, and cast a Darkness spell at the Hobgoblin Rioter, both from the back row." "Nerwen, if you'd be so kind to take care of the Lucustoid Rioter that would be splendid." (OoC: also, seems my power is wrong, 21+12 is 33, not 31 )

Hinckley, you are totally nuts.

So that's what I get for slaving in the kitchen all morning, just chomping from my husband.. who openly admits that he doesn't trust me. Then again, I don't trust him either, our marriage is indeed difficult, almost as difficult as this other patient I had a while ago who'd come by more or less every day complaining about some new symptoms that surely meant she'd die any day. That being said, I think my husband has the right idea today. Vote: Maurice Mouse (Cecilie). Now, if you'll excuse me I need to get back in the kitchen, smells like the cake is finished.

"In general I think your suggestions are good, here are the final ones, I've tried to distribute our strength as evenly as possible:" Group 1: Boreal Namyrra Nerwen Thalion Dwinlas Group 2: Zephyroth Cinna Erik Dreyrugr Group 3: Eurose Guts Mizuki Raven Ashcroft Group 4: Benji Sarick William Harkenshire Alexander Vandangant Not participating: Thotwick Hybros Sir Christopher Daggerfall De'kra Having thus divided the party into four groups of almost equal strength Namyrra drinks a Mead and a Smelling Salts and prepares for battle. "Glad to hear you came to your senses Benji, I've put you in charge of the group going after Nothus."

"Guts, I don't think you can name anyone traitors just because they want to stay out of this, they can (and likely do) have perfectly good reasons for not wanting to fight." "As for your suggestions for groups I think they look good, but I would like to wait just a little bit so we can see if anyone else wants to sit this one out."

"Well guys, anyone who don't want to save the Bonapartes better speak up quickly, because I'm going to help them, and we need to do that soon or there won't be anyone for us to help!" (OoC: I want to give people time to speak up here, don't want to push someone aiming for a good relation with the Ji Pei into a situation where they help the Bonapartes, so I won't split anyone into groups until tomorrow morning, hope that's okay with our esteemed QM?)
