If LotG is innocent, my money is on DarkO, Rusty, and Vulkan. (in case I get offed tonight)

'Sides, alot of focus was on me yesterday. If you have some point to raise, I don't think it'll do anything in the next 2 mins. Save them for tomorrow.

Nigh Night. Sweet Dreams. I hope to see you all nice and healthy in the morning, so we can get an early start to the day and give those Genestealers alittle hell.

There hadn’t been much talking today.

Maybe there hadn’t been a need to?

Muttered suspicions, furtive glances, a few lame attempts at humor that you even laughed at just to try to pretend everything was normal. But you all knew why you were here, and you all knew what needed to be done.

That weird kid in the corner who was always claiming to be some sort of awesomely outlandish thing had just seemed so suspicious. Really, you had to ask why you hadn’t shot him yesterday. But overall you all seemed fairly convinced about the choice today. It was obvious really, he was a Genestealer, had to be.

“I’m not a Genestealer,” he shouted as the votes were tallied. “I’m a Space Marine!”

“Well,” sneered Gornall, “then I’m pretty sure you’ll be able to handle a few las pistol rounds to the chest then.”

“Wait, I’m not just a Space Marine, I’m a psychic Space Marine!”

“…buh?”

“I’ll fry your minds if you try to shoot me,” he waved his hands about mysteriously,” can you feel my presence in your mind? OOOOooooWEEEEoooooo.”

“You’re making that noise with your mouth.”

“Am not.”

“Don’t be fooled by this act, let’s totally shoot him in the face.”

“OOOOooooWEEEEoooooo.”

Everyone pulled out their weapons and readied to fire. At the last second Gornall suddenly screamed that Drk_O was obviously to blame but his cries came just in time to be silenced by a barrage of las blasts. Through the sickening cloud of ozone stench mixed with burnt flesh a dry chuckle could be heard.

“See, told you, I blocked those blasts with the power of my mind!”

LOTG managed a dry laugh before he toppled face first onto the ground – quite dead from the large smoking hole in his chest. In moments you are on him as you check the body for any evidence…and find a large pamphlet titled “How to disguise your evil Genestealer habits behind a safety screen of Zombie Teenage Psychic Space Marine: A guide to Tyrannic Infiltration Success”





lord of the ghosts was a Genestealer!

As night approaches you return to your secured sleeping spot, feeling a little bit more confident about the dawn. One down – two to go; the xenos were in for a fight.

Day 2 is over.
Night 2 has now begun.
If you are a Genestealer you may now PM your allies to discuss who you wish to kill – please have someone PM me that information. If you are a power role that has a night action you may also now PM me with your targets. If you’re a regular Imperial Citizen then good luck surviving the night.
Night Phase will end at the deadline or when I have received all night actions – whichever comes first.
Night 2 Deadline Countdown

Just a friendly reminder (though now that we've upgraded to countdown timers we wonder at the need) but it is roughly halfway through Night Phase 2 - remember that any actions not received prior to deadline will not count.

In your dreams, you smell a foul odor, and hear a chuckel. You served the emperor... I was, in fact, once a Space marine, then I was implanted with xenos... I wish (OOC; not realy) you Imperals live...

I apologize for the late start of Day 3 - I was incredibly sick yesterday and spent the day mostly just moaning pathetically while driving a porcelain bus. I'm modifying the deadline for Day 3 since I don't want the deadline to be this early in the morning. I'll also apologize ahead of time for the cruddy story post, I'm too sick to feel like putting effort into it.
================================================

Rain - there's lots of it, and it's miserable here (almost as miserable as having a really bad stomach virus). There's probably lots of mud, green lightning, and other such oddities involved as well.

You wake up to discover that some really horrible and unpleasant things were done to one of your fellows. Not Michael Bay 'gods I wish I hadn't seen this and saved some money' unpleasant - but Rob Zombie 'I want to wash my eyeballs in lye' unpleasant.

n0t_u - loyal imperial citizen - has been killed in the night!

================================================
Day 3 starts now.

Deadline Countdown for Day 3

I didnt see that coming.... N0t_u was quite and in my opinion. He wasnt very suspicous but he didnt talk an awful alot. So I was keeping a close eye on him.

My main suspects are Vulkan and 'Nid. I can see the possible team now but Im not ruling out anyone else.

I feel the same way bout not_u.

Now, if LotG was a 'stealer, I think we can assume he was their weak link...

I feel the others will be better hidden, but for the first time we have a definite lead. We need to figure out who else was working with him. Top of my list is still g_n_d. I don't feel either one was trying to incriminate the other to save their own hide, so I wonder if that is a link?

I see your reasons for thinking Vulkan, but I don't feel the same way about them.

I don't find RustyKnight all that suspicious at the moment, but that could change.

Lots of people are very very quiet. Maybe we should use our votes to put some pressure on the quiet ones?

Vote: Brother Stynier, but I'll be perfectly happy to change that vote if I see evidence in posts from him that he is both active and my suspicions are unfounded - I'd really like him to help us put pressure on g_n_d and other quiet people.

I think I owe DarkO an apology....

After I put my vote on LotG to tie things up (with the tiebreaker going to GND) he switched over, basically sealing LotGs fate. So either he is innocent or both him and GND are guilty. Because DarkO had pressure on GND all day yesterday, I think the first option is more likely. His newfound ability to talk coherently really threw me, but it looks like there isn't likely any malice there.

I agree with your assessment Fifty... to an extent. The LotG train never got rolling until late yesterday, so it's quite possible that GND was innocent and never had an opportunity to throw LotG under the bus. I still find GND to be suspicious and also Vulkan. I'm still unsure about Rusty, but I think it is secondary compared to those two. I'm going to look back over the votes again and see what kind of light it shines on the events.

Currently looking for a replacement for ginger_nid_dude.

Deadline countdown

Anyone else find it suspicious that GND just drops off the map once we put him under intense scrutiny?

As for Vulkan; why do y'all find him suspicious? Is it just his general quietness coupled with that bizarre eagerness to please? For me, his explanation for his silence bugs me. He said school was interfering, but he's only 13. I can't see school taking up so much time that he can't take ten minutes out of his day to review the developments and make a small paragraph. But I don't know, I don't think that's enought to convict him just yet. However, I do want to see some real talk from him, so Vote: Vulkan_He'stan.

Sorry, did I miss anything?

I apologise for my quietness (OOC coursework). I should be able to contribute more to this xenos hunt

The only person that I find suspicious is dark o from the first day. This could change dependant on what else happens

(OOC: I hope you get well soon Thor)

I thought there was something odd about lotg, and not just his face.

In anycase, we lost another innocent overnight. At least now we know he is n0t a genestealer.

We didn't lynch you, we lynched lotg, who was a genie.

Thats about it really.

You're trying to pressure me into talking by voting for me, and then state that you want me to help you with g_n_d. What if at this time I don't find him as suspicious as the rest? Not saying that I don't, just stating that you idea of 'redemption' through voting for those you want me to vote for as odd. I do find some of his actions odd, but I am not sold on it, maybe rather than me voting because you want me to you should sell me on the idea first?


Anyway why should I trust you? Its likely you and Gornall could be working together, trying now to right the errors of your weak link. You could easily have decided to go for n0t-u thinking he was important for some reason. Then again I could be wrong, and there could be some vast conspiracy involving Vulkan and one of others you have named. I'm still not sure either of you are innocent. So I watch, and I study, hoping to find things that dont add up, if I had things of value to add on a regular basis I would.

Just to point out, if I was a Genstealer, I would have never have cast my vote on LotG, unless GND is also a genestealer, which would leave no room left for Fifty.

In any case, I think Fifty's vote for you has had at least one desired effect... it got you talking, something you hadn't done in what seems like quite a while. I do agree that it could be interpreted as an attempt at strong-arm tactics to get you to vote his way, though.

OOC:: I am still digging out from the snow and whatnot, but I'll be back later.

I'm not remotely interested in whether you put pressure specifically on gnd right now, to be honest, regardless of what I said previously, but I'd like to see everyone involved. I know I am not the most talkative person around here, but others are far less so than even me.

What do you think about some of the other quiet people, like Arheiner, then? It is hard to make up my mind about people when they do not say much. It is a good idea to watch what other people are saying, sure, but we can't get a read on you. If I were a genestealer, wouldn't I be quite pleased about people being quiet, as they can't be asking me questions, like you are doing now? I wouldn't need to hear you talking, as I'd know you are not a 'stealer anyway.

Lord Loss has his suspicions about Vulkan, not me. Sure, I can see Lord-Loss's reasons, but they just don't stack up to enough for me at the moment. I am still not sure of DLS, although attention seems to have fallen away from him at the moment. Dark_O makes me wonder, and Arheiner is also very quiet.

Glad you are still paying close attention anyway.

Vote: Arheiner

I'm really sorry to do this to you GND, but when you didn't pick up on my prod PM I started seeking around for a replacement. I'm afraid you've been replaced. I am sorry, if you'd posted even by noonish today I could have aborted but I already accepted the replacement. Feel free to PM me with any questions.

To everyone else - please welcome Dastardly Dan who is replacing GND.

Fifty, you're starting to make ME wonder.

Arheiner=Dark Lord Seanron (please read back a few pages)

You could be a Genestealer claiming to be doing something a Genestealer wouldn't do, because you claim a Genestealer wouldn't do it.

What do I make you wonder about?

The one time when I act like I'm not suspicious I really aren't


See you all at the end of this, provided I remember and somehow I find out about it.

OOC-fixed

Anyway, Hi all, i'm afraid GND had to have a personality transplant, so I am now him.

Suspision wise I think i'll be withholding my vote for now, but I have got a suspisious list, so those who are on it should tread carefully.

I would have spoken more had there been anything relevant to speak of, a miss place vote is relevant. While I was simply using you and Fifty working together as an example I do think that Fifty could be one of the Genestealers playing the whole, speak more and claim it as something a genestealer wouldn't do. I've heard of that before, and I think LotG may have used that one as well. I'll have to go back through our logs.

ATM I find dark o suspicious
someone said school doesnt take up that much time
its going bettween my mums and dads thats the problem

Well, you still have not said much.

However, I do think the onus is on Dastardly Dave to prove himself now...

Ok, but that'll be difficult to do, at least until I've talked a bit, using rational arguments. After all, any one of us could be a 'stealer, so without solid proof, its impossible to prove oneself.

As for my suspicions, I would say that its often the ones who make the most noise that I find suspicisious, as what better way to hide than to stay right out in the open, where nobody will look for you, (if you see what I mean) and gradually steer the votes in the wrong direction. (OOC: DLS did this fantasticly in game 1)

One simple thing that we can do is compare who voted for Ferret versus who voted for LotG.

I think I voted for ferret for a while then changed to Dark o but I never voted for lotg
