    Cthulhu was feeling hot. The heat of the day had passed but he still felt sweaty and clammy all over. ‘Damn this godforsaken island’ he cursed allowed as he tossed and turned. It was no good he decided, he needed to cool off. Cthulhu had always felt at home in the sea, and so he decided to take a swim. Stripping off down to his birthday suit, he strode the short distance down the beach to the sea. The tide was still in and he waded out to his chest before settling in to a strong breast stroke action.

    Morbidly he decided to go and check on the body of With A Smile. He reached the stake and poked his head under the water to look. There was nothing there! ‘What the hell’ he wondered. The chains were still there but there was no body. He rose to the surface looking around. He couldn’t see a body floating on the water. He ducked down again and opened his eyes. The bright red eyes and face of a werewolf stared back at him. He opened his mouth to scream but only bubbles came out. The wolf reached forwards with both paws and crushed Cthulhu’s throat.

    Cthulhu was dead. Cthulhu was GOOD.

    WfcWarehouse yawned as dawn alighted on the horizon. It had been a long night and he had not slept. He had kept his trusty blade by his side just in case, but he hadn’t seen or heard anyone. At one point he had heard some splashing in the water over towards With A Smiles corpse, but he had just figured some sharks had been attracted to the area.

    ‘Another day, another trial,’ he muttered. He stretched and arose, deciding to go and use the latrine ditch before anyone else could get there. It was starting to smell quite bad. He strolled away from camp and settled on the tree stump that served as a makeshift toilet seat. He grunted in pleasure as he emptied his bowls. The smell around the ditch was horrendous he mused, but then they did all have terrible diets at the moment. ‘This is what happens when you eat each other,’ muttered a voice slyly from behind him. WfcWarehouse shot around in a flash, trousers still around his ankles. He made to step back but tripped over and landed heavily on the sand. The wolf leapt forwards and landed on Warehouse. Warehouse with a free hand pulled his blade out of its scabbard and rammed it into the wolves arm. The blade sunk deep, and the wolf howled in agony. In its fury at being hurt it Warehouse’s arm and yanked it from the socket. He then proceeded to beat Warehouse to death with his own arm.

    WFCWarehouse was dead. WFCWarehouse was GOOD.

    The Guardian protected miked2006. He saw nothing.

    Also my theory yesterday about picking off experienced players means I know I'm done for either by a wolf pushing my name forward today or by certain overnight death. I suppose the wolves are jealous of the tache.

    Morning all, shocked to be alive still now we know about the messages.
    Please view Ashdon.

    Morning all - pretty busy one today but will try to check in where I can.

    So it looks like WAS was either the wolf or tinker then. Today’s messages should clear this up once and for all.

    Agreed Diamond, I’m surprised you’re still with us too! I was happy to volunteer myself for a view a couple of days ago. I’ll say the same again.

    I’d like Tom or EB viewed, personally. EB has played a pretty quiet game throughout.

    Would quite like Moog to be viewed. Something just seems slightly off, and it's difficult to describe what.

    I have basically a crisis day at work now. My boss is being an ******** and I am either gonna resolve it or get fired.

    I'm voting Ashdon now.

    In all seriousness, that sounds less than ideal mate - hope all gets resolved!

    Appreciate the vote!

    I feel like our two wolves are a pro and a semi pro.

    In this case my choice to view would be Moog or EB.
     
  10. TomWatfordFC

    TomWatfordFC Reservist

    Scrap that. Forgot the non-pirate, who we now assume is the Seer, said Moog was good.
     
  11. TomWatfordFC

    TomWatfordFC Reservist

    We assume we still have our back-up seer... reasonable chance they are gone unfortunately.

    Moog has been quite clearly viewed by the Seer, as have I.
    Harrow was mentioned by the Wolf, MikeD was protected by the guardian.

    Edit: Tom I see you've already noticed that.

    There is the other option that the seer views someone else suspicious, and if they’re good we lynch Ashton

    So let's go back to Otter on day 1. This seems to have been swept under the carpet somewhat.
    He made strange posts quoting both Ashdon and Harrow, then for some reason we all thought the message on day 2 saying Harrow was good was the seer. We now know from yesterdays messages that the pirate style is the Wolf, so the Wolf basically told us Harrow was good.

    The two people that Otter weirdly tried to connect with on Day 1 are still alive and unviewed by the Seer. We need to be gunning for these two as a top priority.

    I see that Moog has already voted for Ashdon and unless we get compelling evidence to the contrary then that's where my vote is going as well.

    Honoured to be seen as a semi pro in the game, this is my debut! I can see why I'm suspicious, because I rarely post (well in comparision to others). It is genuinely a work thing, by the time I read through all the messages I've not much time left before it's back to work. If there is a game in August I'll be all over it! Very enjoyable (thanks Opti).

    Anyway, onto the here and now. If I'm viewed it would be a waste, but then everyone will say that. My main defence is I led the hunt for Skyla and was proved correct there, so unless I'm a wolf trying to find a wolf to make myself look good (not a bad tactic I suppose) I'd say it's clear I'm Team Good.

    Who hasn't been viewed at all? Me and ?

    All I can say about the wolf naming me is:

    Every person this wolf has mentioned has been good so far right?

    Additionally, when the wolf seemed to mention me, on day 2 I think the write up where Opti said two wolves now know each other was after this? So the wolf had no idea if he was naming a good or evil player when it came to me. Please do check and see if I'm wrong about this.

    I did also mention that the if the 2nd message was the seer on that day then viewing CB was utterly bizarre. I was basically asking to ve viewed as if they'd viewed me and then I got lynched that day we'd have cleared up the messages ages ago.

    I have also been very open minded about the messages throughout the game too and never closed the door to the pirate messages being the wolf, unlike some.

    That's all I have to be honest, if we get it right today you can go for me after. Simply because that should leave some breathing space with regards to the game ending if that makes sense.

    I'm concerned the seer has been killed
     
  18. miked2006

    miked2006 Premiership Prediction League Proprietor

    I'm not really sure that means a lot though. Skyla said absolutely nothing except strange ramblings, so I think both good and evil would have absolutely no clue what role she had. Does suggest you're not the traitor though.

    Agree that you're 'more good' than some other players on here. Who do you think the seer should go for?

    Ashdon.

    Though I was just about to reply to this, I'd have expected an earlier message. Everyone's been online.

    Ashdon closely followed by Tom. They're the two suspects for me. I don't know how they've interacted so it might be the case it's just one of them, not the other.
     
  22. TomWatfordFC

    TomWatfordFC Reservist

    I don't recall a single interaction between us, although I may be wrong
     
  23. TomWatfordFC

    TomWatfordFC Reservist

    Assuming there are 3 evil and 5 good remaining, I'm inclined to say the evil are 3 from:

    Tony
    Mike
    EB
    Ashdon

    Can't say I really have a preference who we vote for our of them.

    For those thinking the Seer might be dead, (well they might but), read Opti's first post again and look for the capital letters ;)

    I thought the assumption was we started with 4 wolves and 1 traitor, and 2 wolves are dead? We don't know for certain though.

    CLARIFICATION - you really shouldn’t take anything that you might have seen as gospel. I would give no such clues away in the narrative as I have repeatedly stated.

    First message

    Very sure that Ashdon is evil, I decided to see if Harrow was too.
    Harrow Orn is EVIL.
    The previous seer viewed Cthulhu as GOOD, Cassetti’s Beard as EVIL, WatfordTalk as GOOD. Following “tabula rasa” I viewed Moog (GOOD), Diamond (GOOD) and now Harrow Own (EVIL).
    I hope to be as helpful tomorrow morning - 5659

    Grammatically this message is incredibly similar to yesterday's. Small things like starting each sentence on a new line, the same format when talking about who the previous seer viewed and who they have now viewed. The same incremental number at the end, and noticeably no punctuation after that number. I guess the question is whether or not someone would write something THAT similar, or whether it is someone copying all the fine details. I guess time will tell.

    I guess that's me being lynched, I am good and this will probably lose us the game. I've already put my defence up. Not sure what else I can do or say.
