Hinckley

Day Four conclusion is up! Thanks for your patience. I didn't have my FTP setup this weekend and was not at home until tonight. With my class schedule, it's been easiest for me to post interludes and conclusions around midnight so I'll post Day Five in about six hours.

“Hey everybody!” The co-host cries, “I finally got something to bake!” “Wieners and applesauce!” He announces. “Hooray!” everyone shouts. “Oh great,” scoffs John McCracken. “It’s amazing how you can roll your eyes when you don’t even have eyes,” the host notes. “I’m amazing,” admits John McCracken. “This isn’t applesauce, it’s just ein apple,” Eva Hesse notes. “Hey, it’s baked, OK?” The co-host snaps back. “Do I get applesauce and wieners?” Carl Andre asks. “No, you die,” answers the host. Day Five will be up in about 6 hours.

...And I'm having further FTP troubles. Sorry to further delay it kids. It'll all be up some time within the next 24 hours.

Sorry for the delay, everyone. I didn't have internet access this afternoon. Working on the Day Four conclusion and the new day now. Thanks for your patience.

The day has ended with the lynch of Carl Andre. You have 20 hours to get your Night Actions in. A Day Conclusion will be posted within the next 12 hours...

"Du are the looking sad, John," Eva says, "Everything OK?" "I just want some baked goods already!" John answers. "Now, du are looking the annoyed." Eva tells him. "How can you tell?" John asks, "My face is just a yellow brick." "Ich have mine two hearts beating for du, John McCracken," Eva answers, "Ich loves du." "Oh...great," John replies, "Lucky me." vote tally Carl Andre: 5 votes (Ellsworth Kelly, Jo Baer, Eva Hesse, Brice Marden, Anne Truitt) [/font][/color] Brice Marden: 1 vote (John McCracken) Eleven hours remain in Day Four.

vote tally Carl Andre: 5 votes (Ellsworth Kelly, Jo Baer, Eva Hesse, Brice Marden, Anne Truitt)

"You've been promising us baked good for four days now," Brice Marden says, "I want some megablocking cinnamon rolls!" "You think we don't eat because we're minimalist towers of block??" Anne Truit cries. "I may be sexually ambiguous and an outwardly gentle artist," Ellsworth Kelly offers, "But I'll get medieval on your megablocks if something fully baked doesn't come out of that oven soon." "Eeep!" The co-host says. You may now vote. You have 47 hours to reach a conviction.

Thanks to Frank Stella, Genghis Khan, Donald Judd and Alfred Jarry!

Players only please! Late at night something very odd happens to the body of Dan Flavin. Genghis Khan emerges from his block buddy disguise, proclaiming, "Ha! They never suspect Genghis Khan will come slit their throats in their sleeps!" "Ha! They think I am caring about this art! No, I couldn't provide two shits about..." Whack! "Genghis Khan..." marvels the host, "I never would've suspected him." "Genghis Khan..." marvels Donald Judd, "I never would've suspected him." Bang! Donald also never suspects he would be shot by the work of the late Tony Smith, ironically titled "We Lost"... "Oh my!" Robert Mangold exclaims as he views the carnage, "Dan Flavin, Genghis Khan and Donald Judd, all dead. Weird. What's the strange vulnerable type feeling I'm having?" "Vulnerability?" A dark figure offers as he stabs Robert Mangold in the spine. "Thank you..." Robert gasps as the life drains out of him. Alfred Jarry throws off his Robert Mangold disguise and proclaims, "We told them we should be killed before we came up with new ideas! The art world belongs to them, we told them! But their ideas...are...so...awful...megablocking neon..." The dark figure surveys the night's carnage. "Genghis Khan?" He says, "What the...??" In the morning, everyone gathers around the bodies. "Donald Judd was a member of the Town, but Dan Flavin and Robert Mangold were both Scum...and also Genghis Khan and Alfred Jarry, respectively, for some reason." Day Four has begun.

"OK, good." "Well, we're Minimalist Artists, so maybe he can have a minimal death." "How would we do that?" "Dan, could you just die?" "Sure." Thunk. "There, that was easy."

You have approximately 47 hours to lynch.

Players only please! Frank Stella works late into the night on his latest painting. "I think I almost got it. It's just missing something. Maybe something juxtapose to the hard lines? Maybe a splash of color?" He ponders. "How about some red?" Someone asks. "Maybe," Frank agrees, "But I don't think I have any red paint...also, I don't even have a paintbrush. Not sure how I did this much..." Bang! "Oh, the red is nice." Frank admits... ...and then collapses to the floor, dead. "It really does look nice," the figure agrees, "I'm a genius." "Oh no! Frank Stella's dead!" "Yay!" "Who said 'Yay'?" "Um...not me." "OK, good." "Well, Frank Stella and Tony Smith were both Town..." Day Three has begun. You may not vote in the first 24 hours.

Players, please don't wait for a new day thread to log in as your character. Some of you may have messages that need attention...

Due to circumstances beyond my control, Day Three will be delayed by no more than 24 hours. Thanks for your patience.

OK, it's fixed.

Stupid warm tone people...

"OK, Hosts. We chose Tony Smith." "Oh, a lynchee... Um... how nice." "Well, aren't you going to kill him?" "Well..." "Come on, it was your idea to lynch people. You had to have some idea." "Not really. I've been busy." "Yeah, me too. Banana bread is still in the oven." "Did you turn the oven on?" "Oh..." "It's hard to kill someone when we don't even have arms." "Since we're just paintings, couldn't we push him into paint thinner?" "Are we paintings? I thought we were people wearing clothes based on our works of art." "We have hands. You just have to believe." "Huh?" "It's an abstract landscape. Can't we kill him in some abstract way?" "It's minimal, not abstract." "What's the difference?" "Minimal means you think less." Whack! "A hammer works."

Sorry about the delayed day ending. I guess I didn't hit post hard enough the first time.

vote tally Tony Smith: 7 votes (Ellsworth Kelly, Jo Baer, John McCracken, Robert Mangold, Anne Truitt, Carl Andre, Frank Stella) John McCracken: 4 votes (Donald Judd, Dan Flavin, Brice Marden, Eva Hesse) The day has ended with Tony Smith being lynched. Tony Smith's corpse will receive 3 penalty votes tomorrow for not voting. You have 20 hours to get your Night Actions in. Stay tuned for a formal day conclusion...
