The number of ducks you couldn't claim are less as otherwise the game would be over. You might have said the number of ducks is greater than it is but it wouldn't matter as we need to get at least one and hopefully toDay. And you would be smart to tell us the correct number as to avoid any possible mistakes.

The fact that the numbers had been changing was nothing new. So one can't say we took your word for it - I think we had inferred that already.

Was the information that Kath was the alpha-duck given by you? I need to check that. But anyway, speaking the truth is oftentimes the best thing a duck can do, so I don't see that as a duck you would have compromised anything by giving us that information: on the contrary it would have given you the opportunity to say just what you are saying right here. Did we not "know" Kath was the alpha-duck wouldn't have made a difference.

And in the end we don't know that is the case indeed, but that doesn't matter. We need to lynch and kill the ducks as long as there are those left.
