The deadline has come.
Please stop posting. Narration will follow shortly. EDIT: For mandatory vote purposes I will count Pervinca Took's vote since it won't lend itself to a controversial outcome. But please do put the ++ in front of the votes. EDIT EDIT: Also in tomorrow's introduction narration I will include a list of the people who are in danger of mandatory vote expulsion so they can make sure and vote.

~~~~~Our Tale~~~~~
Now that it had been conclusively proven that Kuru was right about there being a murderer on the loose, there was nothing else for it but to set down to the hard work of finding out who it was. If only there was a forensics lab in this canyon. Alas, there was not. One of the guests, who seemed to have given up the will to live, just lay on the guillotine and shouted, “Nilpaurion Felagund!" over and over again, with occasional pauses to shout advice to his comrades. The other guests thought this a mite odd…but didn’t really pay much attention to it. They had other fish to fry! Mostly each other... Suddenly, out of nowhere there was a definite suspect! Of course it was him! There could be no doubt! They threw the suicidal one off the guillotine and tossed their convict on it and pulled the lever. CLUNK! There! Surely that problem was solved and Kuru would come rescue them in the morning. ~~~~~~~ It is now NIGHT 3. Those with NIGHTly business will no doubt commence it. The Ordos sleep now.

The NIGHT passed swiftly. Those who slept did so fitfully. There was a pervasive sense that they were all on the edge of another, strange world that might reach out and touch them at any time. The dawn came, as it always does. The group around the guillotine was a bit smaller this time. A hunt turned up the corpse of Thinlómien. Oh dear. This is getting serious. ~~ It is now DAY 3. You may all post now. After doing my review, it turns out Sally is the only one in danger of the chop if she does not vote today.

Folks who instigated that temporary five (six?) way tie are in a lot of trouble....
Behold my unamused face. o_O

I will look over Lommy's posts if I have time. In the meantime, can we arrange for the Dead to tell us Zil's role? (Can we also agree learning the roles of Night-killed people is a waste of time?)

Well that was unfortunate.
So let's figure out this dead thread communication plan now...going through with it or not? And how?

So, to my mind, either Nog is on the right track, and I've ended up siding with an evil Lottie, Eomer and Legate trio; or Legate is right and Noghas been trying to sabotage our communication with the Dead Thread.
On which note, I don't like the way Nog tries to bring up the no-lynch thing against me and Legate and Lottie as if it's separate from us wanting to implement the plan, which he clearly disagrees with.

Well, it looks like I won't have to look at Lommy's posting toDay after all...
A few thoughts: 1. The Zil vote seems a bit worryingly sudden. 2. However, I also think the early spreading out of the vote needs to be looked at more closely. 3. Let's have the Dead Thread discussion now, please. 4. On the topic of the Dead Thread, over the course of the Night, my suspicion of Nogroddue to his dismissal of the Dead Thread plan has returned. Not specifically his disagreement, but rather his attempt to discredit and derail it without offering any proper alternative (sure, it may be the case that the Dead should be the ones telling the Living what to do, but the Living are still the ones with the power of lynching, and they still need to be communicated with). For example, last Night, instead of either voting for himself (and being revealed) or not (thereby being found out), a B]Boro[/B]-wolf could now potentially try to justify not cooperating (in this case, cooperating being voting for himself for the Night reveal). I find it hard to believe that this possibility would not have occurred to Nog, which makes me suspect him. Ok, it's very late and I'm very tired, so going to sleep now. I hope to wake up to some good discussion, village!

At least they voted, showed their colours and left an audit trail. But there is a point in this game when what you don't do takes on as least as much significance as what you do. Can't help thinking the range would be more an issue for a servant of evil than someone with genuine (though possibly misplaced) suspicion.

On the Dead Thread...
Based on the rules, I'm assuming we will find out who received the empowerment vote at the end of each Day regardless of whether that empowerment vote actually has an impact on the lynch. Am I correct on this? Eonwe, now that I'm starting to wrap my head around your strategy, while I do like where you're going with it, I see flaws. For one thing, last Night there were two in the Dead Thread which means they could vote to reveal a role. How do we know for sure that they cooperated and allowed this to happen? And if they did, how do we know if the role revealed was Morsul or Inzil? The theory of the EW killing their own wolf seems out there, yet the mere fact that it was discussed yesterDay may have prompted last Night's vote to go towards Morsul. Quote:
A strategy is needed, I agree. My main concern is that in our attempt to create a communication system with the dead, we will end up causing miscommunication and even more confusion. After all, while we can direct the Dead Thread and hope for the best, there's really no way to tell for sure if they are actually following the directions at any given time.
