There are very few leads I have left but worth looking into. The link between Drk_Oblit and Brotherstynier died with Oblit.

Gwar / Ultrafool / Lord Loss

I pose a question to you three.

If there are three people how can you guarantee a secret be kept between the three?

<OOC> I will not vote in light of the holiday as well. The fact that my line of questioning got shot to hell has some part.

I dont understand the question, do you mean how can three people keep a secret.

It comes as no surprise to me that Dark Oblit was an Imperial Citizen, our initial judgments of him were simply a reflection of his "twitchy" attitude, and he skimmed death once, which either by luck or skill is irrelevant, his voting patterns had not lead him to be a target at all.

my main suspect is Lord-Loss. I have said this multiple times throughout this event, and I have not been killed, If I was killed it puts blame on his hands- something he wants to avoid-. in addition, he jumped on the bandwagon to lynch Dark Oblit hastily. He has also said multiple times that we are voting "randomly" when this is far from the case, and in fact it doesnt matter as much to the Xenos because they can push 2 votes in their favor.

DLS is also very suspect for Switching votes even though Logic and Facts point to Lord-Loss.


these are the suspects who caused this murder
Gwar!, Valhallan42nd, Frenzied Potato, BrotherStynier, Dark Lord Seanron, Lord-Loss

These are the people who voted for the most recent murder, and had votes in common with the other 2 innocent murders
Lord-Loss, Valhallan42nd

Vote: Lord-Loss


If either of these two turn up to be innocent, then we have xenos who voted (probly just once) outside of the group to throw of our scent.

Also, on the calamity that was the count-error in votes, VH42 voted for LOG first (whom he presumably knew to be innocent)
LL voted for DarkO first (whom he presumably knew to be innocent)
then VH42 took the queue from everyone, and hoped in to death a "deathblow" to DarkO, who survived through what we now KNOW to be sheer luck
Then Lord Loss AND VH42 both jumped over to lynch LOG.

I knew my gut was right about Drk_O not being the traitor. And Gornall is amongst the dead.

Frenzied potato, I think I have an answer for your question. In order to keep the secret you must kill two of the three. If I am correct then you are implying that two of the three you listed are the culprits.

I realy dont like the way you summarise thing, its like your trying to pin things on people with little or no evidence.

VOTE: Demogerg

I find it amusing that you would simply claim that I have no evidence, when in fact I am the only one alive who is reviewing the only ACTUAL evidence we have, the votes.

sneaky of you two to kill off all of those who would use logic and reason, but you are still playing into the same game of vote switching and opinion changing that I know to expect from the Xenos, (OOC: as I mentioned back on one of the much earlier pages, the Xenos will change opinion the fastest, one of the reasons I kept it very particular what I thought about everyone.)

BrotherStynier wrote:"Hmm I figure its about time to do this... There are two people in this room I know not to be Genestealers for a fact. Those people are Frenzied Potato and myself..." I reach into my coat pocket producing my Inquisitorial Rosarius and Writ, "I am the Inquisitor and last night in my investigations I discovered that the man I thought to be a xenos was in fact who he said he was."

BrotherStynier, I want to beleive you, but surely you must have more information that this? All you know is that Frenzied Potato is innocent, after three nights of investigation?

You may claim any position you want, Sir. Any one of us could make a similar claim. Without proper access to the Terran interfaces, there is no way to prove your writ is anything but so many words. And those same interfaces are unavailable while we are encased in a Gellar Field, a fact that you surely must know. The fact that you voted for the deaths of both Airman and Drk_oblit, both innocent, and you did not know about the traitor Manchu leaves something to be said...

You must pardon my scepticism, BrotherStynier, but at this point, we cannot trust any such claims. We have only our gut feelings to follow.

Unless he was attempting to investigate those who were killed by the Xenos on the same night that he investigated them.

Terrible luck or cunning plan, Either way, I have shown who the evidence points to.

Demogerg would be correct in his assumption, I had the terrible luck of investigating Mekboy and Manchu on the nights of their demise. Though I took this terrible luck and made a plan. In addition the fact that Manchu was stopped by the Genestealers on the night I investigated him turned out to be a blessing from the Emperor, had he have lived I would have had to revealed myself in order to stop him, and that would have lead to my demise last night. By the Emperor's graces that did not happen and I am here before you telling you that two of you are known loyal humans. Distrust that if you will.

Demogerg, the evidence you have presented is good, very good though I feel I need to think more on whats happened before a vote is cast. Lord-Lost is one of those on my list of suspects, but a wrong choice now would damn us and this ship.

Demogerg's evidence seems to implicate Lord-Loss.

Let us hope he is correct.

Vote: Lord-Loss

Vote: Lord-Loss

You realise if Lord - Loss is killed and is indeed innocent you directly implicate yourself demogerg.

Voting for Lordloss for Valhallan either prove he is innocent or realises he has to sacrafice a fellow xeno to stay alive.

Ultrafool. You answered correctly. That is my current belief. If Lord loss is not one I believe gwar and you represent the xenos. If he is one it is either you or gwar. This is based on the voting pattern and inactiveness of gwar I believe. Honestly I think ultrafool you are not one.

Vote: Lord-Loss

You all realize that if we are wrong, and that if Lord Loss is not one of the creatures then they will kill one of us in the night and there will only be two humans to stand against the xenos. Those two would lose.

I realize my comment about a mis-lynch may have mislead you;

There are currently eight players alive. So you can afford one more mis-lynch - you cannot afford two missed lynches though, so if you're wrong this Day Phase you will lose the game if you're wrong in the next Day Phase.

OOC-Never mind

I will cast my vote for Lord-Loss, if we are wrong in this vote I fear that tonight they will come for me.

VOTE: Lord-Loss

If you are the Inquisitor BrotherStynier, I pray for your safety. With two of those... things running around, it is probably a forlorn hope. I am hoping your sacrafice is not in vain.

May the Emperor gather you unto Him.

[loading sub-routine 238890D] The Mechanicum recognies the Emperor's Most Holy Inquisition. I hope for all our sakes, Stynier, that you are who you say you are.

[query] we are all voting very quickly in the face of our failed logic? Are you all entirely sure about Lord_Loss. We can hardly afford another incorrect vote...

[secondary query] Loss, if you have a chance to defend yourself, now is the time. Otherwise, the votes may claim you...

I understand, but there are 2 ways to vote in this game, based on what everyone says, or based on what everyone does. Up until this point we have lynched only those based on what they have said. I propose we lynch those based on what they have done. I am not an Inquisitor, I am not a Xenos, but the evidence points to those 2.

After pointing out his seemed guilt it comes to no suprise that he votes for Lord-Loss to save himself. Unless some other damning evidence presents itself, I will be voting for Valhallan tomorrow after we kill the Xenos Lord-Loss.

If you step out of the evidence presented in the voting patterns, then any one of us could easily be Xenos, but if you stay with the evidence it shows 2 people as guilty.

Demogerg is was too sure that Im a xenos. One this is suspecting someone, but he is sure I am a xenos (Which Im not)

If I am killed and its revealed that Im just a scared pilgrim -whose voting habits were suspicous- then you will know that Demogerg brought about my demise to doom this ship!

Suspicious voting patterns? nay, your voting patterns are Damning

I am sure of the evidence, and the evidence points to you.

[query] subject Lord-Loss, you seem to be basing your innocence purely on the feelings of guilt and also the terrible things that will occur if you do indeed die.

I am curious as this is neither a logical nor entirely effective defence. You simply seem to say "don't do this, you'll regret it"

I do believe we are voting to quickly and out of panic, however, I cannot ignore your casual voting yesterday or your heated exchanges with the now dead Gornall. Although Gornall and myself certainly did not see eye-to-optic, I do believe we obtained an understanding, and also a view into your possible guilt. You also appear to be panicking at your sudden illumination to the attentions of the group. Several of us (inccluding myself) have been suspected, but made valid arguments and defences as to why we shouldn't be lynched. However your "don't do it or else" does not fill me with confidence...

[conclusion] Your erratic voting, coupled with what Gornall and myself spoke of yesterday, and compounded by your suspicion in the eyes of one of the Emperor's own Inquisition, I must concur with the majority to maintain not only my safety and the safety of the ship, but also the lasting safety of this collective.

Vote: Lord-Loss

[additional]Omnissiah preserve me if I am incorrect...

Im soon die to, but my death will serve a purpose. When it is discovered that I am an Imperial Citizen, then when you look to next accuse someone. Look to Demogerg!

(OCC: I had a defence ready -Written in word- but its too late now)

Day 4 Has Ended Lord-Loss is Lynched

The mob assaults in a rush, catching Lord-Loss unprepared. He shouts out dark warnings and predicts doom for this error, but is eventually silenced by the sudden application of a length of heavy and crude metal to his head. In moments the deed is done and the mob pulls back to investigate its work.

In his pockets you discover that Lord-Loss carries a 'Get Sanguine with Sanguinus - a guide to inner peace' self help book.

Lord Loss was a regular Imperial Citizen!

You slowly ease back from the body as the darkness of night creeps over you, there are still two Genestealers out there...

Night Phase 4 is here, 72 hour timer has started

F**K

Damn.

OCC: sorry for being inactive for the voting, had to go to a party. I was going to vote lord loss but to late to post.

---------------------
Night 4 has Ended
---------------------

You break open your protein bars and munch on the tasteless brown mush within. In moments it becomes clear who has not shown up to the morning meal. You head to his room and find him laying amidst the shattered remains, his Khan Kan Dance aerobicize tape still running, blood spattered across the projection screen causing it to light the room in a horrible reddish glow. Demogerg has fallen.

Demogerg was an Imperial Citizen!

---------------------------------------------------
Day 5 begins, three week countdown begins
---------------------------------------------------

With only six people left alive - two of which are genestealers - you cannot afford an incorrect lynch today. If you lynch an innocent the town will lose and the Genestealers win. Your only hope is to lynch a Genestealer or not to lynch anyone. Genestealers...well, you know what you need to do.
