iamded Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Neeiigh! It doesn't really matter how you worded it, you were still praising your accuser. It just seems wierd to me that you saw Maurice's behaviour as pro-town, but everyone else seemed to think her method of accusation was suspicious. I wish I could chill out, but you never let me have any of your shrooms. Dick. Okay, sure, I was praising my accuser. But not for the reasons you stated, rather for what I thought were valid grounds for praise. I'm not saying, nor did I say that all of Maurice's behaviour was pro-town, but rather that one specific part. And you never asked for any shroooms, maaan. You know they're a free for all, if anyone wants some shrooms you just gotta ask, dude. Well, it was the next post you made, so unfortunately we didn't get to see your thought process in between. The only reasons to lynch Petey I can find that was used was that he was too defensive and that we'd learn the most from his death. He was being accused of being too defensive early on, so that mustn't have been the reason you voted for him. The next day you didn't seem very eager to pursue anyone associated with Petey's lynch either, and admitted on day 3 that her list wasn't much help at all. Yes. Correct. But note again, that Petey continued to be overly defensive through the day, and so it became more suspicious as the day progressed, and so while that reasoning didn't hold ground for me early on, it seemed reasonable as it persisted through the day. And yet on day 1, your vote seemed to be mainly based around what we could learn from Petey's list. You seemed to think that we would learn a lot from these day 1 suspicions. I still don't understand what changed between then and now. Then and now? Well, a lot's changed, but I don't see how that's relevant. I suppose you mean between then and the next day, and I guess my perspective and reasoning just changed. On day 1, we could take solace in assuring Petey we'd use his list. Come day 2, we realised the list wasn't much use to us at all, hmm, and so we just dropped it. - It seems the consensus is that if I'm town, then Horace is scum. Well, if I am to believe that, then Horace is scum, so I'll Vote: Horace Horse (iamded) So it's me or you, huh? Well there's one thing I know with 100% certainty in this game of life, and that's that I'm a shroom-lovin stallion of a townie. Now, I was previously of neutral mind towards you, but this just doesn't sit right with me. I heard some pretty solid points from my scaly old friend. Now, I'm under the impression there's still a fair bit of time in the day left, so I'm gonna hit the hay - yes, go for lunch - but when I come back I will definitely investigate the aforementioned points more thoroughly until I can come to a sound conclusion on the matter. Anyone care to join me for lunch? I've got some delectable mushrooms right here, full of... mm, flavour...
Dannylonglegs Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 You are defending Maurice in the same way Casey defended herself. Trying to cry others do the same thing, (and sucky). And If I really was scum, I would give attention, make the first vote, actively lobbey against my own teammate when no one else has done anything on that day? What would I gain? Get better arguments. If Maurice is scum, so are you, and it’s looking all that more likely you both are. Oh a bug, I’ll take that… Let me be crystal clear about this: considering what Cameron has publicly said, I no longer think you are scum. Cameron has been quite consistently logical (not to mention his part in Lynching Casey), and by attaching himself to you publicly, with evidence that seems unlikely to be faked (but still possible, I imagine), he has convinced me that you are not scum. When you first stated your argument, Yes! I knew it. So now, don’t you, forget about me. I say we take a long hard look at Maurice Mouse, who first voted for Pennie, and then later switched her vote to Casey. Come on Casey, hit me with your best shot, what have you got to say for yourself? Something strange though, apparantly I targetted Brigit tonight, but I don’t have a night action! Anyone know what that could mean? It was substance-less and unconvincing… So unconvincing in fact that I thought you were contriving it from nothing. Nothing you said after that significantly added to your argument. It was and always had been: “She switched her vote real fast!” As far as the voting first for a scum thing goes, it is possible. I admit now, it’s unlikely, but it’s not impossible considering how weak the movement was at first. Again though, I think you’re Townie now. Furthermore, your argument that Maurice and I are both scum is wrong. I'm a Townie. I don’t know if Maurice is scum, and he very well might be from the argument that’s been made against him by you and Cameron. However, I’ve always believed that investigation results, or people being told that someone is for sure scum, should always be tested! Unless you actually have results of night actions that you’re going off, Brigit’s claim must be tested first. Write this down Percy the Pen! Vote: Horace Horse (iamded) *snip* *chomps Shawna on the bum* Hey! That’s my job!
WhiteFang Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 I believe what Cameron had said, had summarised well, and I think this is the right track to go... Now, I ought to return to my elephant business and stay away from mouse... Sorry Maurice.. I am afraid of you and your squeaks.. Vote: Maurice Mouse (Cecilie)

CMP Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Pardon me, I forgot to mention earlier how my clothes are likely on fire. That is because I was too busy putting out my clothes which had spontaneously caught on fire. I told you all combustion was highly contagious! Cameron was most certainly right yesterday. No reason to doubt such a well-conceived argument today. Vote: Maurice Mouse (Cecilie)
Professor Flitwick Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Hey, they doing with a fish? Don't worry little guy, I won't let them eat you... like how they'll eat me! I'm afraid the best I could do here is follow suit, and Vote: Maurice Mouse (Cecilie). After following the deductions of Cameron, and the word of Gordon that Bridget was bluffing, it seems sound. And if it turns out wrong, we'll know more in the morning.
Cecilie Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 So that's it then. You're not even going to look at what I'm saying . I'm not at all liking how quick a lot of you are to just hop on what Gordon and Cameron are saying, seemingly without even analyzing what's beeing said, and what the grounds for accusing me really are. We have the words of a confirmed townie who died trying to tell us how suspicious she was of Horace, yet you're all just tunnelling on me for some reason. Some of you without even saying anything but "oh, this is the most popular thing today? Ok then, I'm in". Seriously, if you really want to get rid of those Cultists, you need to look at what's going on, not just hide in the bandwagon. I bet there are a lot of scummies hiding in that bandwagon today, happy to lynch another Villager. Somehow I doubt Carly was scum, part of the grounds for lynching Casey was that she wasn't, which means we've probably only nailed two Cultists so far. We can't afford to keep lynching townies like this without looking properly at what's going on. It's just like what happened to Ralphy. Yesterday was a good day, a lot of stuff was discussed, and guess what? It led us to lynch a Cultist! Today it's all "oh, Maurice is scum because Gordon and Cameron said so, so let's not look at anything else". There's plenty of time left in the day, there's still time to find a real Cultist! I would like to point out something else too. Cameron brought up that Gibson was suspicious of me two days ago. But what were his grounds for that? Me apparently "aggressively" accusing Horace. Well, I must say, Gordon's accusations of me this morning were pretty aggressive in my eyes... How was my accusations of Horace any different that what you've been doing to me all day? I guess the only difference is that I'm beeing accused by someone who was right yesterday. But the thing is, them being right one time, does not make them right every time. And they are wrong today. And if you lynch me today, you will see so tomorrow. Please tell me that my death will not be in vain? Please tell me you're going to use my death to actually catch some Cultists tomorrow? Look at Horace, look at those who are happily just hopping on the bandwagon without any form of own thoughts about the situation. You're lynching a Villager today by going for me. Make it be worth something! When I'm dead, maybe someone will tell the legend of Maurice Mouse, the brave mouse who died by the hands of his friends, trying to make them see the light.
iamded Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Prrbrbrb. Alright, I've finally had time to sit down and analyse this whole thing. All the points Cameron's made have been valid, and since I know I'm a townie, and am apparently being set up, I really have no reason to trust Maurice's act. I'd love to know who started this thing by telling Brigit I seemed scummy, as they themselves have to be scum. I believe Brigit was duped by someone. She started to show some doubt yesterday after I explained away all my accusations, and it could have gone either way I think, but then of course she shows up dead today. So of course here I am sitting smack in the middle of this frame, and Maurice keeps rallying after me trying to get me lynched. Add to this the previous defending of Casey, disguised as simple 'loving affection'. As if. So with that, I'll Vote: Maurice Mouse (Cecilie), and go look for some more delicious shrooms. I'm starting to run low...
MagPiesRUs Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 ROAR, it looks like we've reached a decision. Cameron certainly makes a convincing argument, but I'm not happy with how quick everyone was to jump on the bandwagon. I'll keep my vote where it is, otherwise I'll be kicking myself if Horace does turn out to be a cultist. I'm hoping we'll learn a lot from Maurice's death tomorrow, but I have a horrible feeling the janitor will try to keep us in the dark (I remember the janitor only struck every 3 days in Spring Haven). Perhaps our watcher should see if they're able to target Maurice tonight to make sure there's no funny business? Zzzzzzzzzz...

CMP Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Marcellus, I voted for Maurice too. Has my vote been blocked? Or is my Inavotascoshiosis acting up again?
Hinckley Posted September 9, 2012 Author Posted September 9, 2012 Sorry about that Heidi. Your vote must've gotten too close to my socks and burned up!
Cecilie Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Prrbrbrb. Alright, I've finally had time to sit down and analyse this whole thing. All the points Cameron's made have been valid, and since I know I'm a townie, and am apparently being set up, I really have no reason to trust Maurice's act.

Add to this the previous defending of Casey, disguised as simple 'loving affection'. As if. So with that, I'll Vote: Maurice Mouse (Cecilie), and go look for some more delicious shrooms. I'm starting to run low... This just made me even more sure you are scum. And you're probably sitting there with your Cultist buddies laughing, and thinking you'll win tomorrow, after you janitor me. Since nobody is listening to me today, I'm going to lay out some thoughts that maybe you'll listen to tomorrow. If they janitor me in the night, PLEASE consider the fact that you can't be certain of my allegiance, and don't just assume I was scum and work off that. That'll make town lose! Now then. How many scum are left, I wonder? Let me present a hypothesis: - I assume there were 5 scum to begin with. - Wallace got himself killed, dropping their number to 4. - We lynched Carly. But was she really scum? I'm not convinced. And part of the argument for lynching Casey was that she wasn't, so I'm going to assume she was town. No change to the scum number then, still at 4. - Again, there is no Cultist kill. But on night 2, we have no tellings of a Villager being made to target someone against their free will. Did they convert this night? Not improbable. They lost a member on day 1, it's not surprising if they wanted to regain their strength. Let's say they did, and that's the reason for no cultist kill that night. That makes them 5 again. - Then only Villagers die until we lynch Casey, bringing the number back down to 4. Ok, so if we assume this, then there are still 4 Cultists among us! How many are we left? 13. That makes 9 Villagers and 4 Cultists. Then you lynch me, it will be 8 Villagers and 4 Cultists. In the worst case scenario, there will be 3 more Villagers dead in the night, if all the killers are successful, and both the SK and vig target a townie. What's the number then? 5 to 4! Meaning if this happens, and I'm right about the Cultist number, tomorrow will be make or break for Town! Heck, even with just 2 dead townies in the night, it will be 6-4, and still make or break. Just something to keep in mind when you pick your lynch tomorrow... It could be our last chance. Now, let's roll back to yesterday's votes, color coded for your convenience. Casey Cat (Scouty): 9 votes (Scubacarrot, Rufus, Eskallon, CallMePie, Cecilie, Shadows, penalty, WhiteFang, Quarryman) Pennie Pig (Eskaloon): 4 votes (Dannylonglegs, Dragonator, Scouty, Sandy) Booker Bear (Dragonator): 2 votes (penalty, Zepher) Non-voters: 3 (iamded, Professor Flitwick, TinyPiesRUs) Green is confirmed Villager (yes, I am green in the list, I can't unconfirm myself ), Red is confirmed Cultist, and Orange is to mark those I'm pretty certain are Villagers, but I can't confirm it. And Horace in pink, just because Now, when I voted for Pennie, and then switched my vote to Casey, the vote could still go either way. I believe the Cultists were still hoping they could get Pennie lynched over Casey, but after I switched my vote, the votes piled up against Casey, because the Cultist probably realized then it wasn't going to happen, and wanted to quickly hide in the bandwagon. There are even 3 non-voters yesterday, and one who decided to just vote for someone completely different. I don't think both Horace and Lazlo are scum, given that Lazlo is voting for Horace today, so that leaves two potential scum in the non-voters. So I think there are 4 scum hiding in this list of people: Shawna, Edgar, Gilda, Pancho, Horace, Mindy, Booker. Now, this doesn't clear Heidi or Seamus, but Heidi voted for Casey before I did (when the vote could still swing), and Seamus voted first for Pennie, a risky move for scum. There's also one tidbit of interesting context in here: Shawna accused Pennie, but ended up voting for Casey after it was clear that was the way the vote was swinging... Just saying. Sorry for the wall of text everyone, but I feel like there's nothing left for me to do but to leave you with my thoughts to look at once I'm gone . Maybe I can find some good stories in the afterlife. There should be plenty of people there who have experienced interesting things I can use as inspirat... I mean that I can retell!
CMP Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Almost makes me wanna get lynched. Now I think my ULFBRAAB is acting up...
Rufus Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 So that's it then. You're not even going to look at what I'm saying . I'm not at all liking how quick a lot of you are to just hop on what Gordon and Cameron are saying, seemingly without even analyzing what's beeing said, and what the grounds for accusing me really are. We have the words of a confirmed townie who died trying to tell us how suspicious she was of Horace, yet you're all just tunnelling on me for some reason. We have the words of a confirmed townie who died telling us how suspicious he was of you, not to mention two live ones. Some of you without even saying anything but "oh, this is the most popular thing today? Ok then, I'm in". Seriously, if you really want to get rid of those Cultists, you need to look at what's going on, not just hide in the bandwagon. I bet there are a lot of scummies hiding in that bandwagon today, happy to lynch another Villager. Hmmm. The votes are piling up against you, are they? What was it you said before? *sqeak* Actually, the fact that the votes are piling up fast could be a sign that Carly really is a Cultist, because her teammates would want to jump early on her bandwagon so as not to arouse suspicion when we all learn her allegiance and start looking at voting patterns. It's different than yesterday, where the Cultists could try to appear Villagey by defending the Villagers on the chopping block. Somehow I doubt Carly was scum, part of the grounds for lynching Casey was that she wasn't, which means we've probably only nailed two Cultists so far. We can't afford to keep lynching townies like this without looking properly at what's going on. It's just like what happened to Ralphy. Yesterday was a good day, a lot of stuff was discussed, and guess what? It led us to lynch a Cultist! Today it's all "oh, Maurice is scum because Gordon and Cameron said so, so let's not look at anything else". There's plenty of time left in the day, there's still time to find a real Cultist! On the contrary, I think the reactions to this vote have been very revealing, don't you? I think we're lynching another Cultist. I would like to point out something else too. Cameron brought up that Gibson was suspicious of me two days ago. But what were his grounds for that? Me apparently "aggressively" accusing Horace. I don't recall him saying that. The word he used was 'tenacious'. I believe Gibson's reasoning was that you appeared to be accusing Horace on no grounds whatsoever, and had pieced together any rubbish against him. Now several people now accusing Horace on the basis of something the Brigit was told by someone. It is quite possible this person whispering to Brigit is scum. In light of this, your accusation of Horace - on no concrete evidence and on day three - is interesting, perhaps even alarming. All throughout this ordeal, you have played the role of the innocent, dumb little mouse, trying so hard with no-one to trust, but this attack on Horace suggests quite strongly that you've been working together with others as part of a sinister plot. You admitted to talking in private to Brigit; how do we know that you weren't the evil voice whispering in Brigit's ear? It's also interesting that you don't mention the Janitor today. Is that because you know that you'll be Janitored? Or maybe you can't be Janitored, because the Janitor was Casey, or even you? *chomp* This just made me even more sure you are scum. And you're probably sitting there with your Cultist buddies laughing, and thinking you'll win tomorrow, after you janitor me. Ah, no, there it is. *chompety-chomp*
Dragonator Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Well all in all I'm not feeling very confident with today's vote. At the start of the day I was leaning towards Horace based on the few things we'd heard so far against him, such as Brigit's accusation yesterday. However after Cameron's analysis of Maurice's actions I don't feel anywhere near as confident there. A lot of what he said makes sense, and I have the feeling he is a townie after he lead the charge against Casey yesterday so I am going on the assumption that I can take what he has said at face value and not look for manipulation. Looking it over he makes some valid points, and I feel the examples he has pointed out weigh more strongly than what has been pointed out against Horace. The problem I have is that I still have an underlying suspicion towards Horace, just generally from how he has acted. Not really evidence no, not really something I can point to, but count it as a feeling. I was wrong about Pennie though, so I could well be wrong here too I guess. I will be very interested in the results of today's vote. Since I think we will learn the most from Maurice's death, and it will give us a clearer idea of what to do tomorrow, I will vote: Maurice Mouse (Cecilie) based on Cameron's reasoning. He saw as through well yesterday, I think it's the best thing we can do today as well. Could someone maybe wax my back for me? It would remind me of Becka... I loved how much she wanted my applesauce when she did that.
Hinckley Posted September 9, 2012 Author Posted September 9, 2012 Mod note: I forgot to mention - if you're set with your vote, please consider getting your Night Action in. The earlier they are in, the sooner the next day can start. Thank you. The same deadline of 24 hours after the close of the day will, of course, still stand. So worried about fire. Maybe I should keep the watering can next to my bed...
Rufus Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Since nobody is listening to me today, I'm going to lay out some thoughts that maybe you'll listen to tomorrow. If they janitor me in the night, PLEASE consider the fact that you can't be certain of my allegiance, and don't just assume I was scum and work off that. That'll make town lose! Yes, if you're Janitored it would mean that you can say whatever you like now, and we'll have no way of confirming it. Now, when I voted for Pennie, and then switched my vote to Casey, the vote could still go either way. I believe the Cultists were still hoping they could get Pennie lynched over Casey, but after I switched my vote, the votes piled up against Casey, because the Cultist probably realized then it wasn't going to happen, and wanted to quickly hide in the bandwagon. You have to admit that your vote switch is highly suspicious, after I indicated to you in private how scummy it was to vote for Pennie even though you thought she was town. You contacted me because you wanted to see if there was a chance Pennie could be lynched over Casey, and changed your vote when you realised it wasn't going to happen. That does indeed cast suspicion on the later voters; let's see what you are trying to achieve here. There are even 3 non-voters yesterday, and one who decided to just vote for someone completely different. I don't think both Horace and Lazlo are scum, given that Lazlo is voting for Horace today, so that leaves two potential scum in the non-voters. So I think there are 4 scum hiding in this list of people: Shawna, Edgar, Gilda, Pancho, Horace, Mindy, Booker. Why isn't Lazlo in that list? Just because Lazlo and Horace can't both be scum doesn't imply that Horace is and Lazlo isn't. Otherwise, Booker voted for Casey early on, then switched his vote to Pennie because Pennie pushed him to. That by no means clears Booker, but it shows that you have to look at voting behaviour, not just the final vote tally. Now, this doesn't clear Heidi or Seamus, but Heidi voted for Casey before I did (when the vote could still swing), and Seamus voted first for Pennie, a risky move for scum. Actually, Seamus didn't vote first for Pennie. That was Pancho, who later changed his vote to Booker. *snap!* I feel the need to bite someone.
Cecilie Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 We have the words of a confirmed townie who died telling us how suspicious he was of you, not to mention two live ones. His only suspicion of me was based on my accusation of Horace. I was accused for trying to derail he case against that day's bandwagon... Against who was that again? Oh yeah, Villager Ralphy! Hmmm. The votes are piling up against you, are they? What was it you said before? [...] On the contrary, I think the reactions to this vote have been very revealing, don't you? I think we're lynching another Cultist. I think I recall everyone rolling their eyes at that and saying it was stupid. I don't recall him saying that. The word he used was 'tenacious'. I believe Gibson's reasoning was that you appeared to be accusing Horace on no grounds whatsoever, and had pieced together any rubbish against him. Sorry, I'm not a native English speaker. I thought tenacious and aggressive meant the same thing. Now several people now accusing Horace on the basis of something the Brigit was told by someone. It is quite possible this person whispering to Brigit is scum. In light of this, your accusation of Horace - on no concrete evidence and on day three - is interesting, perhaps even alarming. All throughout this ordeal, you have played the role of the innocent, dumb little mouse, trying so hard with no-one to trust, but this attack on Horace suggests quite strongly that you've been working together with others as part of a sinister plot. You admitted to talking in private to Brigit; how do we know that you weren't the evil voice whispering in Brigit's ear? You're not funny at all Cameron . I have been nothing but honest this entire time. I was not the one whispering to Brigit. And how can you be so certain it was an evil voice? Why would someone go through all the trouble to frame Horace? It's also interesting that you don't mention the Janitor today. Is that because you know that you'll be Janitored? Or maybe you can't be Janitored, because the Janitor was Casey, or even you? Ah, no, there it is. Are you reading my words, or just skimming through them? I get that you are super suspicious against me, I just don't get why. I have not been afraid to speak my mind this entire time. And that makes me scummy...? And you're lynching me. Whatever, I'm done with this. I've said what I had to say. If you won't listen today, fine. But listen tomorrow! If I get janitored, listen anyway! Let's assume they can janitor tonight: - They janitor me, you think I was scum, and Horace gets a free ticket to live. - They don't janitor me and you get to see I was town. You all rally against Horace. But wait, if they still can janitor (assuming Casey wasn't the janitor), and they don't janitor me, are they really framing Horace? Don't get caught in the confusion, think! Do the right thing tomorrow! And if I do get janitored, don't let Horace get a free pass because of it, make sure you analyze well and make a wise decision tomorrow. Cameron, I really believe you are town after how you helped us lynch Casey yesterday, but today you are really hurting my feelings by being so damn certain I'm scum, because I'm not . But you are smart, even though you are wrong today. Please figure it out tomorrow, because everyone are obiously trusting you. Now I'd like to continue singing that song for you. I can do more than tell stories, I can sing too!
Hinckley Posted September 10, 2012 Author Posted September 10, 2012 I kind of like the look of my half-burnt cape. Perhaps I'll carefully burn the other half...naked of course. I wouldn't want any of my other clothes to catch fire! final vote tally Maurice Mouse (Cecilie): 10 votes (Scubacarrot, Shadows, Rufus, Quarryman, Zepher, WhiteFang, CallMePie, Professor Flitwick, iamded, Dragonator) Horace Horse (iamded): 3 votes (TinyPiesRUs, Cecilie, Dannylonglegs) The day has come to a close. With 10 votes, Maurice Mouse (Cecilie) will be lynched. Another day is ending in Winter Haven and another citizen has been sentenced to death. There is much anger still being directed at sad, meek Maurice Mouse as he sits on the edge of the fountain waiting sadly and patiently for his death. "You switched your vote real fast," One accuser yells. "You keep saying you're lonely with nobody to trust," Another accuser accuses. "How Scummy is that??" "You've never made me a peanut butter sandwich," A third accuser complains. "You called the statue Allan Albatross for one story and Samuel Seagull for the next," A fourth accuser scoffed. "How could it be both??" "The Village Square fountain?" Marcellus asks, "That's the eagle, of course. Ethan Eagle, as in The Great Age of the Eagle!" Maurice Mouse's wheels are turning. "The Eagle..." he whispers. "You better shut your mouth, Scummy," Gordon Gorilla sneers. "You're nothing but a stupid, meek, little mouse!" "Listen, punk!" Maurice growls as he bounds up and gets in Gordon's face. "I may be stupid and I may be meek and little and I may be a mouse..." "Wait, where was I going with this?" Maurice pauses. "Ah, whatever," Maurice says and opts to just punch Gordon in the face. Gordon does him the favor of leaning into it a bit since Fabuland arms don't extend quite far enough to truly punch. "And you," Maurice sneers at Shawna Sheep, "Little Miss Sheep..." But then Maurice remembers it's not polite for a man to punch a woman. So, he kicks her instead. Finally, he grabs Cameron Cockodile by the collar and pulls him face to face. "Eeep!" Cameron squeaks. "Tell me my death won't be in vain!" Maurice bellows into Cameron's ear. "Whaaaaa?" is Cameron's frightened reaction. Maurice throws Cameron to the ground. "Mommy!" Cameron cries. "If I turn up as an innocent Villager tomorrow," Maurice says with full intensity, "Promise me you'll listen to what I've said. You're a smart man, Cameron, and I really like you. But you've got a stubborn streak and it's going to cost you today. If you find out I'm a Villager, heed my words and some day this Village will tell the story of Maurice Mouse the Brave! The mouse who never stopped fighting for the Village he loved even when the Village turned on him. Death to the Cultists!!!!" And then an ugly thing happens. Spurred by the theme of "Death to the Cultists" and the fact that the Villagers do not appreciate Maurice's sudden violent turn, Maurice is literally lynched... It was an ugly thing for happy, adorable animals to participate in, but desperate times call for desperate measures. The lynchers hover around the tree for a while, somewhat dazed and experiencing a bit of lyncher's remorse. They were all agreed that it was Maurice who had to go...but they are out of sorts at how ugly it got. Nobody notices a body washing up on the riverbank. Please get your Night Actions in ASAP. You have 24 hours to do so. Late Night Actions will not be accepted.
