MagPiesRUs

Thanks for the great game def, I loved the concept and it was a lot of fun to play. Scouty, I would've protected you last night, but I figured that since you'd become a vanilla and since you were the towniest of the town, you were going to be converted. Also I knew Big Cam would watch you anyway, so I protected Shadows instead. I hadn't realised we were so close to losing though. I really wasn't expecting the recruiters to start off with three players. Us townies did get together and try to contact Alopex on the last day, but for some reason we ended up trusting Shadows with the job. Thanks again, def. Are us surviving townies going to get killed now, or were we too boring to get proper deaths either?

Does it? Are you suggesting that badboy may have been working with Big Cam? Even though Big Cam is responsible for Alopex's lynch today, who you are confident is scum?

Vote: Alopex With that out of the way, are any of us planning on discussing anything today? Sure, we've got an easy lynch today, but that doesn't mean we'll get one tomorrow. iamded, you said you were going to look at badboy's posts with fresh eyes. Have you found anything yet? Having looked back myself, I can't find much of note. Though it is interesting that you voted him for mayor on day two. Badboy said he didn't want to vote for himself as it would seem like he was forcing his way into the position. Perhaps he got a scum buddy to give his election campaign a helpful nudge?

Damn, I've lost track of time. Before the day ends, I'll go ahead and vote: badboytje88, based on his weird behaviour regarding the mayor position, and his fairly apathetic attitude in general.

Sorry, but what did you think Big Cam was lying about? Being the watcher? Why would he lie about that when the Scouty or the real watcher could disprove him so easily? Also, I'm not sure who you were referring to here: Were you saying that Dragonator would be a solid lynch tomorrow if Big Cam was a townie? Why would Big Cam turning out town immediately validate his theory about Dragonator, Shadows and Scouty?

Why didn't you vote for yourself yesterday if you were volunteering? Why didn't you vote for yourself today, for that matter? Have you changed your mind about being mayor? You've had two easy chances to become mayor, but you've seemed to back away both times. Now I'm stuck with it. Thanks a lot.

Given that the entire premise behind this game is that all the major twists were already outlined before we began, I'd say the chances of something like this happening is 0%. And by the end of the day, Hinckley had changed his mind about Pandora and set his sights on Shadows, Dave, Zepher, NightShroud and DarthPotato. Are the suspicious he directed towards them validated too, or does that logic only apply to Pandora?

Hinckley and Scouty have both seemed like townies to me throughout the day, which is why I've been hoping a realistic alternative would come up. Personally, I feel like Piratedave would be a good candidate for lynching, especially after he attempted to reconcile with me in private, where he admitted his vote for me was purely vindictive, and not because he found me scummy in any way. However, it is interesting that Pandora has apparently been defending Piratedave in private with Hinckley. It's also interesting that both Pandora and Piratedave have suggested that if either Scouty or Hinckley turn up as town, we should lynch the other one tomorrow. Vote: Pandora I admit that I'm not 100% confident in this lynch, but I feel it's a better choice than Hinckley.

It may be worth noting that the chandelier kill apparently happened during the day (note that the other kills took place on night zero and night one): Although the way Scouty has described his role is very strange. From what I understand, he says that he will be told who the day killer will kill each day and he will be given the choice to save them or not. However, that doesn't explain why he would've been targeting Shadows last night...

Yes, I believe that either him or his scum team may have solved the puzzle beforehand. I'm not sure why else someone would publicly reveal their thoughts and thus provide more clues for scum players who already had a distinct advantage over us.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. Are you implying there's a connection between Flare gambling his vote away and me voting him for mayor? Because there was no risk of Flare actually becoming mayor unless three more people decided to vote for him at the last minute. If that had happened, we'd be able to question these last minute voters, which would've outweighed any downsides brought about by having a potential scum as mayor. There was still a possibility of it happening. The narrower the gap between the two mayors, the more tempting it would be for scum to vote one of their own in. Anyway, there was nothing to lose in voting the way I did, so why not give it a try? I'm still not sure why, as a townie, you'd want to share any information you've deduced about the puzzle in public. It's better to keep it to yourself and prevent the scum from using it, isn't it? And why would you think that the same question was written in both English and French? That would render half of the puzzle pieces near useless, wouldn't it? Vote: Piratedave84

I wouldn't say no to a Flare lynching today based on his behaviour so far, but I'm not sure how much it will help us learn about the people who voted for him. Regardless of his allegiance, it's clear that some of the people involved in the bandwagon for Flare are scum. It doesn't make sense to me that so many people would follow Hinckley's fairly random vote so brashly. Even if Flare isn't scum, I can see the scum trying to hop on the bandwagon of someone like Hinckley in order to get into their good graces. Personally, I voted for Flare just to close the vote gap between him and Cornelius, just to see if there'd be any last minute jockeying from the non-voters. I suppose it was a long shot to assume scum would reveal themselves that easily, but it was worth a try. Not that being mayor is ever going to be a particularly important role in this game (provided that not everyone decides to throw their vote away on some shiny slot machine...) Darkdragon, I find it hard to believe that both you and Hinckley would decide to vote for the same person independently of one another. There are plenty of other players who would've fit Piratedave's description. You didn't provide any reasoning for why Flare would be the best choice out of the lurkers either (though admittedly, Hinckley didn't either). It's just a very weird coincidence that both of you would independently decide on the same candidate within minutes of each other.

Mayor: Flare

Actually, there's nothing that implies that a townie won the puzzle. Def said that the first person to get the puzzle would be given absolute immunity from actions in night one. Which means that anyone with an action (scum or no) would get a strongarm too. He was just saying that scum would probably get the best use out of it. So *ping*, yourself. I also find it hard to believe that Piratedave would reveal all that information about the puzzle without even trying to google and solve it himself first. My gut is telling me he posted his information after his scum team had already got the puzzle correct.

I don't have a piece.

Hello everyone, my name is TinyPiesRUs. I'm a mafia veteran and an EB Fellow. OOC: "TinyPiesRUs"?? Why do hosts always have to give our characters such stupid names?

Sign me up, please!

Agreed. I think the Native American will get the black mohawk too. The biker will probably just wear one of the aviator helmets (or maybe another black army helmet, if we're lucky).

Having just condemned Wary the Black, the remaining warriors pondered what to do next. Ragnar grew impatient. "Who are we going to execute today?" he asked, craving more blood. Loki was galloping closer and closer. Sensing that the einherjar were weak enough, he now planned to make his move on Valhalla. It wasn't long before he had reached the gates of Valhalla. He was surprised to find the heads of so many of his servants decorating the walls, but was unfazed nonetheless. Odin and Thor were on the move too. "Hurry, Thor, I must inform the einherjar who the traitors are! We must get to Valhalla before Loki!" urged Odin. "Why didn't you drop this bit of exposition for me before?" Thor asked, "I didn't know we were supposed to be hurrying." Thor ordered his goats to travel faster through the mist. But they were already too late. Loki had entered Valhalla. "You fools!" Loki laughed, "did you really expect to defeat my minions and I so easily? No one outsmarts me! Little did you know, I enlisted two factions of traitors, one going by the name 'The Servants of Loki', the other, 'The Minions of Loki'. You have failed, and now it is time for you all to die. Rise, my servants, rise! Kill these remaining loyalists." But none of the warriors stood up. They all looked around at each other in puzzlement. "Oh, that's right," Loki remembered, "I only recruited one faction. I knew I'd forgotten to do something... It's not easy scheming while there's a snake spitting on your head..." "No matter," said Loki, "using Sæhrímnir, I have revived the rest of my servants. Prepare to die, you loyal fools!" Ragnar had gathered the remaining einherjar, who were ready for battle. Between the tables of Valhalla, the two sides faced each other down... ... Before abandoning all discipline and jumping into battle! Patrekr the Red (Palathadric) surveyed the battlefield, looking for an enemy. While he wasn't looking, the scummy Sigmund sneaked up behind him... But using the lightning-fast reflexes that only a paranoid axe owner has, Patrekr swiftly cut Sigmund down in mid-air. Ragnar managed to make it up to the balcony and eyed his target below... He made a perfect landing, cutting the jestful Jormund in half. Wilhalm Bloodaxe (WhiteFang) sized up his opponent. Calm and composed, he stayed still as a statue, waiting for an opening... Hervi Puddinghead was baffled as Wilhalm remained inactive... But Wilhalm's patience payed off. Hervi had been standing directly under an old rusting chandelier, which fell from the ceiling and crushed him to death. Meanwhile, Snotra Carrotface (Scubacarrot) overpowered Gerrid and threw her against the table. Disarmed, Gerrid could only look up in horror. Snotra produced her rolling pin and proceeded to flatten Gerrid's face into mush Before engaging in battle, Sveinn the Uninspired (Scouty) decided to make some small talk with his enemy. "Nice weather we're having, isn't it?" Sveinn asked. "It is," Dagrun replied. "... I hear salmon costs two hacks of silver these days. Can you believe that?" "... I can." Having exhausted his repertoire of small talk, Sveinn looked around the room, trying to think of another topic to bring up. "... Table legs... Uhhh... walls..." Unfortunately, he couldn't think of anything else. He raised his axe and killed Dagrun in a very uninspired way. Carl Poem-Piece (Capt. Redblade) had been backed into the corner by Beorn Ale-Lover. Carl, realising that his death was nigh, lamented his fate and began to sing a eulogy for himself... "Carl likes it when it's warm, Carl likes it when it's icy. Carl likes his mead in a horn, Carl likes his chicken spicy..." Carl continued to sing his long-winded poem, driving a frustrated Beorn to turn to the drink. Beorn glugged down a keg of ale and died of alcohol poisoning. Finally, an oblivious Dragmall (Dragonator) was being stalked by a dark figure... Using the element of surprise, the figure knocked Dragmall to the ground. He then bent over Dragmall and raised his sword to kill. "You fool!" The hooded figure whispered, "no man can kill me!" "I am no man!" Dragmall shouted, throwing off her fake beard. "Well, everyone knew that," the figure tried to explain, "I was just using a figure of speech. It's not true anyway, a man probably could kill me. Actually, men have killed me, on several occasions in fact..." Sensing that the figure's guard was down, Dragmall lunged at her assailant, plunging her sword into his hood. Dragmall pulled her sword out, shocked to find the mangled face of Wary the Black, the final Servant of Loki! The einherjar, having defeated the Servants of Loki in battle, looked around at the carnage that had been created. ... But it wasn't over yet. Loki's maimed minions stumbled back to their master, who had the meat of Sæhrímnir ready for them again. Soon, they were all good as new. "We can do this all day if you'd like," Loki smiled. Fortunately, they didn't do this all day. This conclusion is long enough. Just then, Thor's chariot came crashing into the hall, trampling Loki and his servants. In the face of Odin and Thor, the traitors fled in terror from the all-mighty gods. Wary, realising that he'd made a horrible mistake by joining in with Loki's plot, decided to make amends with the gods he had betrayed. With a single swing of the axe, Wary beheaded two vile Servants of Loki. However, treason could never be forgiven, as Odin demonstrated when he impaled Wary on the spot. Loki looked for an escape route, but instead came face-to-face with Thor. "Come on, Thor. It was all just a joke. In the end, we all had some fun, right?" Thor answered Loki's pleas with a swift hammer to the head. Finally, Loki and his servants were well and truly defeated. "So, who do we execute next?" Ragnar asked, excited. Odin turned to Ragnar. "It's over, Ragnar. Our enemies are defeated. We're all going to live in peace now. I don't want to see any more blood shed in these halls." "But... but... we'll have another one these things soon, right?" Ragnar stammered. "It's over," Odin replied. As Ragnar sulked off, the rest of the einherjar set about restoring Valhalla to it's former glory. Luckily, they had kept a pile of their dead friends close by, who could now be brought back to life with the power of boar meat... Lo and behold, the great warriors of Valhalla were alive - Erling the Unlucky, Lefsi Red-Shirt, Holti, Bolobus the Robust and Smior Dead-Man-Walking! Oh, and some other randoms were revived too... With the hall, tidied up, the einherjar were ready for another night of feasting and boozing. Now that the traitors had been put to death, the hall was slightly emptier than it had been at it's height. However, there were also a couple of notable loyal einherjar who were missing from the feast... Ragnar had retired to his quarters, bemoaning the fact that he would never experience such a bloodbath again. Having been relieved of his command of Valhalla by Odin, he no longer had any duties left to occupy his mind. His thoughts turned back to the horrible deeds he had committed. The ghosts of his past returned to haunt him. Harald awoke from his slumber in the dark cellar beneath Valhalla. Harald became aware of a bright light, and looked up to find the door to his prison unlocked. In the main hall, the einherjar were just about ready for their main course - the magnificent Sæhrímnir! Harald now stumbled through the hallways, looking for Ragnar's room. Harald opened the door... ... Ragnar standing there, back turned to Harald... ... some of the einherjar prepared to cut up Sæhrímnir for the rest of the guests... Harald crept behind Ragnar, axe raised. Ragnar was waiting for him... Harald looked down in shock at what he had done. Ragnar lay on the floor amongst his blood. "The horror..." he whispered...

Is it a bucket of piss, or is it a bucket of snake venom, or is it both? It sounds like you should stare at it a little longer... Sorry about the delay though, it should be up within a couple of hours.

The sun began to set again in Valhalla, which meant that someone was about to be executed. Wary the Black (Waterbrick Down) stepped forward, resigned to his fate. Ragnar raised his axe, intent on slaying another victim. Wary lowered his head warily, awaiting the blow. Harald looked on in horror. He could not bear to see the death of another einherjar. He needed to stop Ragnar's killing spree now. Harald leaped from his seat and ran at Ragnar, axe raised. He was too late to save Wary, however, who was struck on the head by Ragnar and now lay in a pool of blood. Harald had hoped to catch Ragnar off guard, but Ragnar, a veteran of many a battle, deflected Harald's swing with ease. The two warriors locked axes, each trying to gain the upper hand. Eventually, Ragnar used his strength to throw Harald to the floor and disarm him. Deciding not to kill him yet, Ragnar grabbed his defeated foe and took him out of the hall. Ragnar led Harald through the dark corridors of Valhalla... ... Until eventually they reached an empty cellar, where Harald was tossed down the stairs. Harald looked across the dark room in despair, having failed his mission. The door was shut behind him, and Ragnar returned to reside over the farce he had created. The day wore on, and Harald saw no means of escaping his predicament. Eventually, Odin would return to Valhalla to restore order, but every day lost would result in the deaths of more and more einherjar. But when all hope had faded, a raven fluttered through the window. Harald's eyes brightened. Conveniently finding a piece of paper strewn across the floor, Harald quickly got to work scratching out a letter in which to send Odin. He urgently requested Odin's return, fearing that soon, things would be too late. Thinking that Odin would still be at the site of Loki's imprisonment, Harald sent the raven there. Little did he know, Odin was no longer there. In fact, Loki wasn't there either, having freed himself from his chains... You have 16 more hours to send in your night actions.
