NOTW II - Devil Among Men

[SUTSS]

Unvote IanH

 

[Oaf]

1 hour 20 until the deadline for the adventure. So you know, the quest will be happening right on the deadline today, so at 2pm.

 

[hodge]

I am going on the quest

 

[Veggie Legs]

Woof woof woof!

( I am going on the quest! )

 

[Oaf]

Ciderhead, Hodge, and their faithful companion Veggie Legs set out to the thick jungle in the west for the third of the four stones...

 

[Oaf]

After not too long, the three adventurers find themselves very deep into a dense forest. Suddenly, Veggie catches the scent of something and goes running off, with Ciderhead and Hodge close behind...

After a couple of minutes, they find an oddly shaped part of the jungle. They find a large circle where the trees are all burned out, but the tops of the trees around the edges have grown inward to cover the roof of the jungle in a dome shape. In the middle of this circle sits the third stone.

The three approach the stone... and hear a rustling from above. Veggie starts to growl...

"Holy shit!" shouts Hodge... he see's it first. A huge horse sized spider drops down from above! What to do!

The adventurers remembered to take the glass sword with them on this... perhaps they can fight it off.

A) Attack the eyes!

B) Run the fuck away!

C) Cut off its legs!

At least one of the adventurers must choose one of these three options and post it in bold in this thread by 2:35, or a response will be chosen at random.

 

[Ciderhead]

A) Attack The Eyes

 

[Oaf]

A) Attack The Eyes

A wise choice. The glass sword manages to cut through the soft eyes of the spider without shattering, and as a result the spider thrashes wildly but isn't able to land a hit on the three adventurers. Ciderhead dives in and grabs the stone and they make a run for it. The spider, unable to see, doesn't follow.

After not too long, the three adventurers are back at camp with the third stone.

One more remains...

 

[Ciderhead]

 

[Veggie Legs]

Woof woof woof!

(Good work everyone!)

 

[hodge]

Well that was hard

 

[Ciderhead]

Got to say, we've got some camp here. We're bossing these quests! These wolves will be no match for us!

 

[Oaf]

It is pretty incredible how you're doing in these quests and hunts. Not a single casualty... in fact, I think the only thing that's ever gone wrong for you is the boar escaping in the very first hunt.

Lets see how long this continues though...

 

[hodge]

How many people voting for him genuinely believe IanH is a wolf? SUTSS is in the clear now so could understand people voting someone else to protect IanH. Are the any real holes in IanH's story, I'm going to re-read it as I read it when tired but if he was going to shoot someone at the time Paul Haddock did stick out a bit. We lost no one overnight so in the same position as yesterday when we didn't kill anyone.

 

[Mr Elmo]

Bit of a rash decision from me at the time, so Unvote IanH for execution

should say SUTSS not IanH

 

[hodge]

Sweet Dreams Paul Haddock. Your early vote for Veggie Legs, and then u-turn and equally quick bandwagon jumping against SUTSS have arroused my suspicions.

When I went on the first quest I was able to fashion a weapon, which I can use periodically to kill, outside of executions. I don't wish to have to kill an innocent, but have to kill someone to prove my own innocence, and you've piqued my suspicions more than anyone else.

I was suspicious of SUTSS and close to using this killing on him, but have been impressed by his reasoning and think it makes sense.

Periodically... Once for now but who knows if I go on more quests in the future.

Ok, so I was wrong about Paul Haddock. It was a hunch I had, just like all the people who have previously voted to execute someone without damning evidence, like Paul did twice (Although I'll admit mine was a bit more brutal and rather undemocratic).

I wanted to use my power early for two reasons; 1 - to try to get some smoke around the circle of trust and confuse the wolves a little, and 2 - the wolves are killing people who have vocally supported our leader, Veggie, which I've also done and I didn't want to be killed without using my power.

The wording of my power was that I could fashion a weapon and a bullet. It never explicitly said it was single use (until Oaf said in this thread). I had hoped further quests could yield more bullets but that seems not to be the case.

I am clearly not a werewolf, but will accept any votes on the basis of being a horrible arm-dealing c***. We should be going for the real baddies though.

I'd be inclined to believe IanH atm, we've been patient in regards to killing people off and its worked well so far I'd have said.

 

[hodge]

We really need to get the quiet guys involved more

 

[InceptiveLemon]

I voted for Ian because I thought it would be dangerous to have someone who could kill anyone whenever they wanted. As it's been confirmed he can't do it again then unvote IanH for execution.

 

[hodge]

Rammy is still voting for SUTSS, Rammy was barely on yesterday as well. Should we have someone make it 1-1 on the votes?

 

[hodge]

Opinions from people (SUTSS and Veggie would be useful to hear from) should I vote for someone who has barely been active. That way its 1-1 and either Rammy comes online and un votes SUTSS and I unvote whoever or it stays 1-1 and Veggie legs is given the power to choose who to kill. Just SUTSS is currently in danger if Rammy doesn't come online and Veggie has just confirmed SUTSS is part of that group.

 

[Ciderhead]

I believe it's still 1-1 at the minute, Silkyman hasn't retracted his vote for Ian.

Ideally both him and Rammy will make it on, otherwise I think we'll be executing an innocent

But yes if there is anyone the CoT suspect more than those 2 it might be an idea to vote for them

 

[hodge]

Okay in that case how happy are we for IanH to be executed, same idea as before. Maybe get people to place single votes on other people (4 or 5) maybe so Veggie and the others can discuss who Veggie should choose? People like Tom, Aber etc have been on the forum plenty but their activity levels in this game have been minimal.

I've been trying to harvest uranium.

FWIW I too suspected PaulHaddock after his sharp u-turn but he was confirmed as innocent. More fool Ian and I.

 

[hodge]

So reading but not contributing, got it

 

[The Hand of Dom]

It'sh harssh to shay I've been quiet. I've inputted when I felt shomething needed shaying but I'm not in to this whole prochess of voting for people off of the back of nothing. We could have quite eashily losht SUTSS due to rassh callsh. Careful thoughts need to be prochessed from now to the future and a team decishion. Veggie made a fantastic call with JJH so now we can pussh on to kill other Wolves.

IanH made a big call with hish gun. Maybe a wrong one but ish it enough to execute now? I'd be more wary of thoshe shtaying out of the limelight. What are they hiding?

OOC: Sorry, I've started a new job after my redundancy (which was wrong so been chasing that too, lots of lovely hours on hold), so haven't been around a whole deal but I'm all good now so you'll see me involved a lot more.

That's why I'm tempted to put some of them under some heat for the next few days, if they're not contributing anyway, then worth getting some info out of them potentially.

 

[Magic]

(OOC: Just read the thread through! Apologies, I'm in Italy on holiday at the moment. I could have dropped out but I just thought I'd see how I could contribute anyway - I can use data but it's mainly on my phone. Having caught up...)

I won't be making a vote as we have to trust the dog so far so I don't believe SUTSS is a wolf and it would be almost suicidal for Ian to expose himself so clearly through his murdering of Paul.

 

[Oaf]

The final votes are:

IanH: 1 (Silkyman)
SUTSS: 1 (Rammy)

Ian and SUTSS are tied for votes... it is now down to Veggie Legs to choose who of the two dies and who lives to fight another day. Veggie has until 9:30pm to make this decision, or it will be chosen at random.

 

[hodge]

*whistle* 'here Veggie Legs, come make a decision boy'
