Tamamono Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I made it quite clear on day 5 that I was going to investigate one of my three suspects. I spoke to Yan, briefly to Irene, and to my wife Raya. Yan wanted to discuss a theory he had about the poisoner, Irene just screamed the word scum at me over and over, and Raya questioned me on my choice of investigation targets so far. I did mention specifically that I would target one of my three suspects to her, but I made sure not to say which one. So the decision to investigate Wilem was all your own, then? Who were your 'suspects', and did Raya discourage you from investigating any one of them?

I did mention specifically that I would target one of my three suspects to her, but I made sure not to say which one. I can confirm that. I contacted him because I wasn't at all confident voting for him on day 5 and because I was truly skeptical about his choice of targets. I had also asked him publicly already, but didn't get a reply. I didn't even ask for his plans for the night, but he mentioned the names (I'll leave it up to Dmitri to disclose them or not) of three people he suspected and said that he wanted to check one of them out. And of course I did not try to influence his choice...
def Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Oh lord, what a lousy day! Unfortunately, my life has been tied up with Dmitri's for days now, even though I never even talk to him. And he tried to have a coup with a false investigation, but it's failed since we're all still here today. So, regardless of the results today and their effect on me, we should take out Dmitri. Some unanswered questions: -who knew Yan was an investigator? Was their a leak to the scum there? -if Wilem was a poison protector ( ), who was he protecting the night the poisoner failed?
Hinckley Posted September 4, 2011 Author Posted September 4, 2011 It is late morning and the good citizens of Moonlight are, once again, guarding the street so the construction men don't tear it up. However, once again, the union & criminal construction workers are not showing up for work. So, the vigilant watchmen and ladies snooze away the late morning, napping on the sidewalk. Raya has a wonderful dream... ...that she is Princess Leia on a Tantive IV filled with happy and adorable animals! The Hottie Criminal Construction Man has a nightmare... ...that his life is run by slimy TV executives. "So, unfortunately, you're not working out in Moonlight," The Slimy Female TV Executive tells him, "It looks like our viewers are pretty loyal to Steve and they're not happy with the idea of The Cross-Dressing Construction Man cheating on him." "It's not your fault, baby." The Slimy Male TV Executive chimes in, "Our fans have been angry with us ever since we killed Darlene off. Agent Sky's death didn't go over very well either. You've done a great job, but you'll be written off the show. Most likely killed off in the most gruesome way. Don't get too comfortable here. The conclusion's going to be ugly for you..." Denis isn't dreaming at all. He's dead. Denis (def) was a member of The Baritones Mafia Family The Deceased Benji, a businessman, married to Irene, played by Big Cam - convicted on Day One (Town) Eugene, a manager of The Green Door Tavern, played by Eskallon - murdered on Night One (Town) Sarah, a retired piano teacher, married to Samuel, played by Sirius Black - died mysteriously during Day Two (Town) Yuri, a personal trainer, played by badboytje88 - Murdered on Night Two (Town) Elena, a college professor, played by Inconspicuous - murdered on Night Two (Town) Max, a lawyer, played by Masked Builder - died mysteriously during Day Three (Scum) Donil, a police officer, brother of Nika and Timur, played by Waterbrick Down - convicted on Day Three (Scum) Petr, a construction worker, played by Zepher - murdered on Night Three (Town) Stanislav, brewery manager, played by Shadows - murdered on Night Three (Town) Barbara, a yoga instructor, married to Boris, played by Bob The Construction Man - died mysteriously during Day Four (Town) Ruxana, a pilot, played by Roncanator - convicted on Day Four (Town) Nika, a firefighter, sister of Donil and Timur, played by CorneliusMurdock - blew herself up with a grenade on Night Four (Town) Petra, a nurse, played by Peanuts - murdered on Night Five (Town) Catya, a college student, engaged to Yan, played by The Crazy One - died from an unfortunate Full Moon related accident on Night Five (Town) Vera, a highway patrol officer, played by KartoffelViking - died mysteriously on Day Six (Scum) Wilem, a Moonlight Transist Authority (MTA) employee, played by White Fang - convicted on Day Six (Town) Yan, a college student, played by Jim Butcher - murdered on Night Six (Town) Denis, a construction worker, played by def - died mysteriously on Day Seven (Scum) You may now vote. You have 48 hours to reach a conviction. With 10 players left, it takes 6 votes to lynch. Mod note: Just a reminder, interlude participants are chosen randomly for entertainment. Outside of Denis's death, the photos and story are for fun.
CMP Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 I'm almost starting to think the poisoner's trying to help us rather than kill us all. Alright, I've gotta give Stanislav some credit for suspecting these 2.
Brickdoctor Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 This makes a whole half of Stanislav's claim correct. And given the other things we learned today, I think we have a very good option in Dmitri for lynching, no?
Tamamono Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Woohoo, another Baritone! It appears that Stan was right about Denis, but let me stress the same point I've made before: it only takes one mole in the group to get all the night action holders killed. So we shouldn't just say, "Hey, Denis was scum, so Dmitri must be scum as well!" (although Dmitri probably is scum because of his 'investigation' of Wilem). I wonder how many non-town citizens are left? There's obviously one poisoner and possibly two(?) Baritones left, but how many Russians? They killed on Night 2, but what of the other nights? I'm thinking that they possibly failed a conversion of Elena on Night 1 (in other situations like these, major town night actions can't be converted) and so that's why they decided to kill her, but there's still nights 3-6 for them to convert. It's entirely possible that they converted for two or three nights to cover their losses from Day 3 and failed a kill another night. However, neither mafia could possibly have five or more people left (there might be more than five scum total, but not five on one particular team) or they would have already outnumbered us. In order for us townies to win this, we need to make sure that we are staggering our scum convictions so that we don't get outnumbered. One Russian, one Baritone. I think it's safe to say that the Russians probably have more right now, so I think we should focus on them today.
Fugazi Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Another Baritone! Good work poisoner, whoever you are. That's two Russians and two Baritones down. We don't know how many of each team are left, but we must keep the momentum. The evidence against Dmitri doesn't look good, and I doubt that anyone will admit to having framed Wilem. The way Denis was ready to vote for Dmitri earlier today is interesting. It seems to imply that Dmitri is not a Baritone, but a Russian. Or a fooled townie, although it seems far-fetched.
Dragonator Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Wow, our poisoner sure is doing a great job! Here I was thinking that just because Denis was grouped with me meant he was also a townie, but clearly that isn't the case. I'm at a lose for where to go from here. I'm still highly suspicious of Irene and Samuel, as I guess Wilem could have just gone along with them based on the letter from Stanislav, but I'm not so sure any more. I feel I've been played like a cheap fiddle. The poisoner has done well for us, even if he/she is likely trying to get us all killed in the end, but the scum are still managing to manipulate us. I get the feeling Denis could well have been one of the masterminds behind our current mess, he is a crafty adversary that is for sure. I can completely understand if you want to get rid of me at this point. I most certainly would if I was in your shoes. Killing me isn't going to help the town, but I guess it will give you some closure on this mess... I just wish I hadn't walked so eagerly straight into their trap. As if following Samuel's "evidence" against Ruxana wasn't bad enough, I blindly believed in my result and ended up leading a conviction against one of my fellow townies. In hindsight it seems careless, but at the time, with all the accusations... it seemed to fit so well. Clearly, it fit too well.

In hindsight it seems careless, but at the time, with all the accusations... it seemed to fit so well. Clearly, it fit too well. Again you're turning this to me. It's like Day 5 all over again... All "evidence" I got about Ruxana came from Yuri and Yan, I was just the messenger to keep them safe (good lot did that do to them in the end). You've acted oblivious throughout this game of life. You gave no comments when we questioned if you were a naive investigator - of course you wouldn't, since you wanted us to follow your lead. I just don't believe you can publicly announce to be an investigator and still live after all these days. And me and Raya and Patrick are still alive as well, even though you "confirmed" us to be Townies many days ago. This has got to end. Stanislav was right about Denis, so I dedicate my vote to his memory, and apologize for not being able to nail neither one of you earlier. Vote: Dmitri (Dragonator)
Quarryman Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Vote: Dmitri (Dragonator). That's all I have to say, really.
Rick Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Considering the way God introduced the day, I have a feeling we have the poisoner to thank we're all still alive. All "evidence" I got about Ruxana came from Yuri and Yan, I was just the messenger to keep them safe (good lot did that do to them in the end). I hope you're not going to claim that as one of your successes? I truly appreciate your efforts, but your sources were pretty wrong about Ruxana. I even considered it most likely that either you were being fed lies by the scum or the Peeping Tom didn't exist and you were scum yourself trying to steer us in the wrong direction with made-up results. I just don't believe you can publicly announce to be an investigator and still live after all these days. And me and Raya and Patrick are still alive as well, even though you "confirmed" us to be Townies many days ago. Well, if Nika indeed targeted Dmitri with her grenade and failed, the scum might have been reluctant to take him out at night, afraid it would backfire on their killer. And perhaps we were just too divided on the vote the past days for the scum to see a chance to convict him (without being too obvious). This could be especially true if the two scum factions are approximately equal in size without a way to coordinate their plans.
Pandora Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 The poisoner is certainly putting the rest of us to shame! Way to go poisoner! It's a pity you had to kill so many of us, though, along the way. I wonder if this was just pure dumb luck on the poisoner's part though, given Denis was a low poster from yesterday. This is also perhaps the breakthrough we needed, as we feared that the situation might be nearing breaking point. Of course, it still might be. I agree with the sentiments that it is dangerous for us to make assumptions. I think there's more going on here than meets the eye. It's very interesting that Denis would urge us to vote for Dmitri with his unknowing last breath, and I'm really not sure it is wise to trust the words of a now confirmed scum.
Sandy Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 It's very interesting that Denis would urge us to vote for Dmitri with his unknowing last breath, and I'm really not sure it is wise to trust the words of a now confirmed scum. But there are two rivaling families here. And it's not just Denis's statement that speaks against Dmitri. Besides, who else is there to vote for? Me? For what reasons? I hope you're not going to claim that as one of your successes? I truly appreciate your efforts, but your sources were pretty wrong about Ruxana. I even considered it most likely that either you were being fed lies by the scum or the Peeping Tom didn't exist and you were scum yourself trying to steer us in the wrong direction with made-up results. Of course I don't claim that, but I refuse to be single-handedly blamed for that mistake. :hpmf:
Dragonator Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Well, enough sitting around whimpering to myself. What's done is done, we can only move forward from here. The poisoner has certainly become a pivotal role it seems. He may have killed many of us, but he has also been very beneficial and, despite probably being neutral, may end up being our saviour. While we're all sitting here twiddling our thumbs, you and Irene are lovers, aren't you Samuel? Just a curious thing that has been circling in my head recently, thought I might ask since things are looking so bleak.

Just a curious thing that has been circling in my head recently, thought I might ask since things are looking so bleak. Not to my knowledge, at least. I have noticed we've been shown together a lot in the photos, but if we have a connection, it's not something I know of. I was happily married to my Sarah until the poisoner came and put an end to that. What are you people trying to do, anyway? Repeat Day 5 all over again? Things have changed since then, as Dmitri has become responsible for the conviction of an innocent townie. I know I had my doubts, but we simply cannot look past that.
Dragonator Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 What are you people trying to do, anyway? Repeat Day 5 all over again? Things have changed since then, as Dmitri has become responsible for the conviction of an innocent townie. Hypocrite much Samuel? I believe you were pretty certain of Ruxana too, and look where that got us.
Sandy Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Hypocrite much Samuel? I believe you were pretty certain of Ruxana too, and look where that got us. You can call me hypocrite all you want, but that doesn't change the fact that you're our only option to vote for today. Or does someone want another Full Moon Festival thrown upon us?
Tamamono Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 It seems that everyone's forgetting what I said, so I'll say it again: we need to kill a member of the Russian Mafia to survive today. If they have four more members, then even voting off a Baritone means we lose. I think it was pretty obvious that Dmitri was with Denis, who was Baritone. Now don't come to me saying, "Oh! There's no way he and Denis were on the same team! Denis wanted to kill him earlier today!", because that's what everyone was saying. For whatever reason, Dmitri's plan to win the game... of life yesterday failed, and now he and his teammates understand that all the non-Baritones (Russians, Neutrals, Townies) will want him dead. We need to convict a member of the Russian Mafia.
Hinckley Posted September 4, 2011 Author Posted September 4, 2011 vote tally Dmitri (Dragonator): 2 votes (Sandy, Quarryman)
Dragonator Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Dmitri coughs. Well, since not much seems to be happening, I'd like to suggest an alternative vote for Ruslana. Ruslana has been incredibly quiet and frankly I'm not sure why the poisoner hasn't killed her yet. I believe her silence to indicate some scheming and plotting, probably on the side of the Russians considering her voting record. Vote: Ruslana (Quarryman) Otherwise I might die of boredom sitting here.

I believe her silence to indicate some scheming and plotting, probably on the side of the Russians considering her voting record. Vote: Ruslana (Quarryman) Otherwise I might die of boredom sitting here. That's certainly a bold move, Dmitri. I too have been extremely suspicious of Ruslana because of the way she just pops in, votes for no reason, and then pops out. However, I don't think her voting pattern suggests that she's a Russian. She voted for Benji, Petr, Donil, Ruxana, Samuel, Dmitri, and Dmitri again today. On Day 3, Donil was convicted, and he was a member of the Russian Mafia. Day 3 is a little early to be giving up on your scum friends, so I'd expect the Russians of that time (I suspect it was Max, Donil, and one other to begin with) to have voted for Ruxana in hopes that their ally could be saved - especially after what happened to Max that day. The people who voted for Ruxana on Day 3 were Samuel, Denis, Nika, Petra, me, Yan, Boris, and Petr. All of those people are dead expect me, Samuel, and Boris. I know I'm town, so that leaves either Boris or Samuel as a Russian Mafia member. Now, there's definitely the possibility that Ruslana was converted after Day 3, but it's much harder to tell who's who when we're looking for those who have been converted. What makes you think her voting pattern suggests that she's Russian?
Hinckley Posted September 5, 2011 Author Posted September 5, 2011 vote tally Dmitri (Dragonator): 2 votes (Sandy, Quarryman) Ruslana (Quarryman): 1 vote (Dragonator) There are 24 hours left in Day Seven.
iamded Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 I've been rather busy painting all day and haven't had ready access to internet talk to you all. However, I think it's entirely obvious that Dmitri is scum and no one can refute that. Stanislav said right from the beginning that he was 100% sure Dmitri and Denis are scum. Thank god the poisoner has managed to confirm this, coupled with Dmitri's failed 'investigation'. He never was an investigator, guys. Come on. Anyone who defends Dmitri today, or in the past few days should be regarded as highly suspicious to any townies out there. And now that I'm here and voting's open I'l going to vote the hell out of Dmitri. Vote: Dmitri (Dragonator)
Rick Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 I've been rather busy painting all day and haven't had ready access to internet talk to you all. However, I think it's entirely obvious that Dmitri is scum and no one can refute that. Dmitri might be scum (although I'm still not entirely convinced), but as Timur has correctly pointed out, if Dmitri is a member of the Baritones and we convict him, we might be handing victory to the Russian Mafia instead. So, I definitely think it's worthwhile to consider our options and the possible 'end game' scenarios. Ruslana has been awfully quiet the last couple of days and certainly more quiet than when we started this.
