++ Shasta

Sorry, honey.

Aganzir · 10-17-2014, 05:33 AM

Looks like it's game over then!

The morning was very quiet. Inzil's gruesome death had shocked the villagers, but not as much as finding out their dear friend and neighbour sally had in fact been plotting against them all along.

Finally wilwa spoke up: "It must be Shasta! Rikae would never had done it!"

Rikae nodded, smirking.

"I agree wholeheartedly," piped in Algae and flashed a toothy smile.

"You are missing the point!" cried Shasta, "can't you see it doesn't make sense!? It's Rikae!"

"You're so confusing, Shasta," said wilwa.

"Can we take this a bit slower?" asked Nerwen.

"No! It's got to be Shasta!" wilwa yelled and pointed a finger at him.

"Yes, we quite agree," said Rikae and Algae, grinning wickedly, and started advancing on poor Shasta who was still trying to explain why it was Rikae, not him.

"Uh-oh," said Nerwen.

The village could but stand and watch in horror as Rikae and Algae built a fire and skewered Shasta. While he was roasting, they turned their attention to Nerwen and wilwa.

"How about some cold appetizers?" asked Algae.

"Liver pâté, perhaps?" said Rikae.

"I'll fix us Bloody Marys," said Algae.

Aahhh!!

Well, nicely managed by the wolves! I had a little suspicion of Rikae, but I was thinking pretty well of Greenie based on what Cab had said.

Bad luck all around for the village, with RangerLegate buying it Day 1, then Cab. At least we prevented a clean sweep, and I was instrumental in taking down a Sallywolf.

Thanks for the game, Kit! Sometimes the simple rules are a welcome change.

Inziladun · 10-17-2014, 07:16 AM

And not even a consolation prize for us hapless innocents.

McCaber · 10-17-2014, 09:54 AM

My first dream was Shasta. I know he usually doesn't give me much to go on and I usually cannot get a read on him. That was why I mentioned being against voting a submarine towards the end of Day 1.

Night 2 I dreamt of sally. I spent that whole day waiting for her to slip on something so I could call her on it and make a point without being too obvious. Unfortunately it seems that the wolves picked up on that pretty quickly. I made a huge mistake in not calling out LG after a post of Nerwen's finally made me realize that I was being played. And I thought there was a bigger difference between "didn't see anything" and "have seen nothing". That one's on me.

Night 3 I dreamt of LG but wasn't able to do anything about it due to being dead. But knowing that sally and Greenie were both wolves, IDing Rikae as the last was pretty elementary.

wilwarin538 · 10-17-2014, 10:43 AM

Ugh, well that was a major fail on my part

Congrats to the wolves!

And after all of that McCaber didn't even dream of Inzil

Galadriel55 · 10-17-2014, 10:58 AM

Well done, wolves! And nice try village. With both gifteds out of the way so early, you really took the challenge well.

But the Shasta lynch? He was so obviously innocent! How could you listen to those wolves whispering some technicalities nonsense? I guess well done wolves again.

Rikae · 10-17-2014, 11:09 AM

Well done, wolfies!

Drinks all around!

Well, I was going to congratulate you, McCaber on successfully giving the village at least Inzil to trust - and now you come along and say you didn't? I was sure that you had! Everything I said about that was 100% honest (well, except for my reason for avoiding Greenie...). It really looked like you dreamt of him!

Also: we didn't know you dreamt of Sally. We killed you because of this:

Obviously overusing seeing metaphors is not always a smart thing for a Seer to do, but even without those I think it's interesting how he differentiates between Inzil and me; he's somewhat definite on Inzil looking like an ordo, and specifies in my case that I've done nothing suspicious that he can see. Inzil would have been a logical dream for last Night, anyway. Do you guys think this is a possibility, or am I completely off here?

And this:

Those looked like seer hints to us, at least more than anything anyone else did - so basically, we knew you were the seer, but for all the wrong reasons.

Anyway, Inzil certainly rose to the occasion on Day 3! I was so disappointed when I saw his vote: he'd mentioned Shasta and Nerwen before, so I thought we were set.

And, of course, SHASTA *shakes fist* you're basically a free seer and sensible wolves would always kill you on Night 1!
