Limbo: A dark and unsettling land that lies beyond the borders of our own space and time: A land riven with deadly pitfalls and hazardous terrain and populated by a host of terrible denizens.

Not least among these fearsome creatures are the Lost Tribe: - A group of children damned to spend their eternity in Limbo. Seeming to exist only to prevent any other poor souls from passing through their unforgiving realm, the Lost Tribe wreak terrible violence upon those who trespass their boundaries.

Though stripped of all but the last, ragged vestiges of humanity, the Lost Tribe are forced to rely on one another to survive and, as such, adhere to a basic - if uncivilised - form of society.

The Hierarchy of the Tribe is simple, but brutally efficient:

The weakest, but most numerous of the Tribe are the 'Little 'Uns': The smallest of the cursed children; whose voices carry little weight in decision-making and who rely almost completely on the strength and leadership of their larger peers. Unfortunate Little 'Uns are often singled out and routinely victimised, tortured - or even killed - when no other threat or distraction is present to ensure tribal unity.

The older and stronger of the children form the second tier of the tribe:- The 'Big 'Uns'. Though fewer in number, The Big 'Uns possess various characteristics and traits which raise them above their younger peers; granting them individual abilities and lending their opinions greater weight during Tribal decision-making.

So far the Lost Tribe has maintained its existence in Limbo with a ruthless determination. Countless souls have been hunted down with spear and blowpipe, drowned in stagnant pools, or impaled on the spikes of one of the tribes many fiendish traps. But rumours, whispering through the dank forests of Limbo; speak of an altogether more insidious threat. Souls that will come to threaten the tribes very existence: Souls the whispers call ... Free Spirits.

Did you also get an exception to have 20 players in the game? or is 20 the new limit for small games? Just curious.:bow:

Ah! - OK... I was taking my lead from the Darkling thread. I am more than happy to cap at 17 unless the 20 becomes the official number before the game begins. For now I shall ammend the list above to include anyone beyond 17 as a reserve. Thanks for joining :2thumbsup:

The 'Limbo' theme is just purely for flavour. Knowlege of the game will be of no help/hinderance at all. One thing I should reiterate is that I shall be using screenshots from the game which may be a little 'spoiler-y' for those of you who haven't played Limbo. I hope this is not a problem and shall try to keep the spoilery element to a bare minimum.

The max. players for a small game is confirmed as 17 so this game is now officially full and ready to start. I've been asked to delay that for a couple of days while Darkling Small game gets going, so unless I hear otherwise, I shall be sending out Role PMs and kicking off on Thursday.

LazyMcCrow
01-12-2012, 22:45
OK. I'm going to send Role PMs and make the initial game post over the next couple of hours. Hope that's ok with you all.

Moderators! Please can you edit this thread to "[IN PLAY]"?

PROLOGUE:

The day The Free Spirits arrived, began like any other for the Little 'Uns of the Lost Tribe: Swift kicks and harsh words from the Big 'Uns brought the ragged youngsters quickly to terrified consciousness and as the camp scuttled into action, the terror of the Little 'Uns was slowly reduced to their customary wakeful state of numbness and dread. A commotion beside one of the spiked pits signalled the discovery of a nocturnal beast impaled on one of the lethal barbs at the base of the trench. The large amphibian stuttered out its last spasms of life as it was wrenched from the pit by two of the Big 'Uns, and a ragged cheer went up at the prospect of a change to the menu. The large battered cauldron containing leftover rat stew had a scummy grey sheen atop it that was beginning to look decidedly unappetising.

And so, the Tribe set about their tasks for the day. The rust needed to be swabbed from the man-traps at the edge of the bog and the darts for the blow-pipes re-fletched. One of the Big 'Uns used the Tribes single prized blade - a thin, cruel machete - to sharpen the points of the new hardwood spears, while another assembled a crew of Little 'Uns for foraging duties. The large amphibious beast - a guineafrog - was gutted and skinned and methodically butchered by a small tussle of Little 'Uns who were then kicked into line by a Big 'Un and tasked with the digging of a new latrine pit.

The thin slivers of light, filtering down through the dank canopy, waxed slowly across the clearing at the centre of the camp and as the gloom of the afternoon set in, talk amongst the Tribe turned to its new favourite subject: The rumours of the new threat. Rumours of The Free Spirits.

Increasingly irritated by the incessant chatter, one of the Big 'Uns stamped to the centre of the camp and clambered atop a large pile of old car tires.

"Thats ENOUGH!" he cried - the gruffness of his shout cracked to a shrill cry, as his eternally breaking voice sent dark, heavy-winged birds croaking and flapping from their perches.

"Free Spirits! Free Spirits! - That's all you lot gab on about, and I'm fed up've it d'you hear?"

The Little 'Uns lowered their heads in shamed deference and the other Big 'Uns gathered closer - eager to see where this was going.

"If I hear one more word about these ...Spirits, I'm going to brain the squirt who said it...

....wiv the Hogknocker!"

At that, sighs and gasps of hushed distress rippled out from the gathered Little 'Uns and all eyes turned to the weapons rack by the fire pit, where; suspended from its leather thong, hung a wooden club the length of a Big 'Uns leg: It's fat head, clad in blackened iron and studded with cruel looking nails: A silent testimony to the crushing of skulls.

"It's time we remembered who we are!" declared the Big 'Un

"We're the Lost Tribe! and nothing can get past us!"

At that, murmurs of approval fluttered about the camp and even a halfhearted cheer was raised, although the Little 'Un who'd uttered it was soundly clouted about the head by a sneering Big 'Un; to the uncomfortable giggling of those about him.

While the speech appeared to have had the desired effect, there were those amongst the tribe who recognised the hollowness of the threats, and whose minds clung firmly to their purpose… for how could the Lost Tribe stop a threat that was already amongst them?

The last grey hint of evening fled into the murk through the trees, until the only light remaining emanated from the glowing embers of the fire pit. The Tribe slowly sloped off to the hidey-holes, nests, and gap-toothed shacks they slept in, and soon the only sounds were the occasional, distant and abrupt cries of unfortunate prey, as they were plucked from their places in the food chain.



IT IS NOW NIGHT ONE

ALL ROLES HAVE BEEN PMed

Night One will end in 48 hours. I shall endeavour to post an update as soon after the deadline as possible , but it will probably be on Sunday (GMT).

NIGHT ONE

Not all of the Tribe could afford the luxury of sleep at any one time and- as first out of the dice game - the western half of the perimeter watch had fallen to Atheotes. Slithering swiftly down the rickety ladder from the watchtower to the ditch, Atheotes dropped the last couple of feet and deftly landed in a crouch. Clutching his blowpipe tightly, he picked his way through the trench, where the barbed spikes embedded in the dirt were at their thinnest, and scrambled nimbly up the other side of the dry moat; onto a well-worn path which threaded into the trees.

The night wasn't too cold, but the air was clammy and rank - the scent of mouldering vegetable matter on the forest floor filled Atheotes nostrils - adding to the claustrophobia the dark forest caused - and he jogged along the overgrown track which signified the first section of the Tribes' border, until the trees thinned again. The path meandered gently downward along a slope and Atheotes slowed as the ground became soggier underfoot. The track ran in and out of increasingly large puddles as it grew closer to the swamp which lay between the forest and the caves.

Pausing briefly to scan the darkness, Atheotes became aware that he was being watched.

Narrowing his eyes he made a sudden movement forward and then stopped. There was no sound. He remained still again, tense and ready to flee, should a wild predator break from cover… duh-dum, duh-dum, duh-dum… four, five, six heartbeats…. but still nothing else moved.

Taking a long slow breath, Atheotes inched forward in a crouch. His loaded pipe at the ready, Atheotes turned slow circles as he made his way along the edge of the swamp and up the slope, back towards the Tribes' camp.

From behind a large mossy boulder, a hidden figure watched Atheotes retreat, but made no move to follow him.

On the opposite side of the camp, Arjos was about to complete his patrol along the network of rocky paths that led down to the caves from the East, when a flickering light from amongst the rocks across the pathway caught his eye. He held his position and stared intently into the gloom, but nothing appeared to….There! There it was again! A twinkling light; like a small illuminated butterfly. Gone again… But where? With knuckles whitened around his sharpened stick, Arjos crept slowly over the dusty ground toward the rocks - picking his way around the larger boulders which made a natural maze of paths leading down to the entrance of the caves.

The flickering light appeared once again, further down the slope from below a natural stone archway between some higher rocks and - after glancing back once, to check his bearings - Arjos warily made his way through the darkness towards it.

As he reached the archway, Arjos slowed, but as he caught sight of the light once again ahead of him, there was a gritty creaking from above, and Arjos' eyes widened in horror as a huge section of the archway collapsed and plunged down toward him.

Arjos leapt to one side, slamming his shoulder and head against a jagged slab of rock, as the archway slab smashed into the ground next to him. His ears rang as he rolled to one side; dropping his stick to clutch at the pain in his shoulder.

Footsteps hurried from the darkness toward him and Arjos had barely begun to turn his head when a rock was slammed against his temple and his vision flashed white. For a dazed second, stars twinkled in front of Arjos' eyes, but quickly cleared as he realised his assailant had only dealt him a glancing blow in his haste to rush past, and Arjos quickly leapt to his feet and began to sprint back up the path between the rocks.

His breath was ragged and he had to stop and lean against the rocky wall of the path - legs shaking - hoping his vision would clear. The sound of running footsteps getting closer caused Arjos to yelp in terror and his fear forced him onward - back in the direction of the camp…back toward safety.

The Eastern watchtower was as rickety as its western counterpart. The tenuous stack of planks and crates teetered and creaked softly in the night breeze; its skeletal frame illuminated by a small spotlight attached to a filthy old battery. Atop the platform of the tower sat a Big 'Un and a Little 'Un, waiting impatiently for Arjos' return.

'You're up next Little 'Un, an' no arguin' right?'

The silence from the smaller child was taken as dutiful agreement by his menacing companion.

'W-w-wait, Whats that?' the smaller child leapt to his feet and pointed over the splintered handrail; into the darkness that led down to the caves.

The Big 'Un quickly jumped to his side, sharp eyes tearing into the gloom.

A small figure was running lamely up toward them, from the rocky maze of boulders.

'Arjos?' the small boy whimpered, as another figure carrying a spear broke from the cover of the rocks in pursuit of the first.

'ARJOS!' the Big 'Un hollered, clutching at his stick, he made ready to descend the tower; at its base the confused sounds of the stirring camp already awakened by his cry. The Little 'Un stood transfixed as the Big 'Un half climbed, half skidded down the structure. The first runner.. it must be Arjos the Little 'Un thought .. was slowing, the chasing figure would undoubtedly catch him before he made the safety of the camp. He couldn't make out who the second figure was, but it looked like one of the tribe..why then the smell of fear in the air? Why the attitude of violent desperation from both Arjos and his pursuer?

As the Big 'Un below him picked his way between the traps and defences, the Little 'Un sensed it was too late. Arjos seemed to sense it also, partially turning to face his assailant, as the sharpened stick - his own stick that he'd dropped back at the archway - was driven into his flank.

The small boy had no breath left in his lungs to scream as he collapsed to the ground and once again the Little 'Un in the tower witnessed the attacker drive the spear deep into Arjos' small frame, before sprinting back the way they had both run; back into the darkness.


Finishing his bowl of slops and flicking the last of the swill into the breakfast fire, a Big 'Un stepped into the circle to address the tribe.

"Someone here is not what they seem to be" his eyes moved steadily over the grimy faces of the children of the Tribe. "Last night one of our own was stuck like a pig right under our noses, and one of you - maybe MORE than one of you, knows just how it happened. Well - we'll get to the bottom of this, see?"

"If we're going to catch the scum who killed Arjos you had all better start talking. One of you knows who it was! and I'm telling you to own up now! It'll go better for you if you do!"

The circle of children remained silent, wide-eyed and sweating discomfort and fear.

This was not the response the Big 'Un had hoped for and his voice cranked up a notch as he shouted at the assembled.

"Whoever it was - Big 'Un or Little 'Un,- own up now - or I swear to you, one of you'll be getting your brains knocked out before this day is through!"

DAY ONE has begun and shall end in 48 hours. Any wrong-doer present among you may choose now to confess their crime and save the other members of the Lost Tribe a great deal of torment. Or.. alternatively you may begin to point the finger at who you think most likely fits the bill.

The Cursed child with the strongest vote against them at the end of the day will be executed - any ties will be decided randomly by myself and no abstained votes, or calls for mercy will be acknowledged.

(So we started N1, now we have D1, then after you have made your first lynch it will be N2 then D2 etc. Don't worry - shouldnt be too hard - It may even catch on ! ^^

Maybe you could call the first night, night zero.

I'm as confused by your vote as you are to mine. It was a day one vote, why take it so seriously? In addition, why bandwagon when it should be pretty obvious that I'm not admitting any guilt?
I hate to OMGUS here, but this is too scummy. Unvote, Vote: Subotan.

Okay, since I don't feel like putting up a decent defense, unvote, vote: landlubber.
There has to be a day one lynch, right, so let's just get this silliness over with and have it be me. Go ahead, vote for me, everybody.
If anyone was wondering, I was a BIG 'UN. My vote counted twice.

Montmorency
01-16-2012, 20:37
Then why are you committing suicide, when you might have had Subotan or Jarema lynched?

landlubber
01-16-2012, 20:47
Because I have no idea who they are. They might be town power roles. If they're mafia, I'm confident in the town's ability to weed them out later. For now, I'm content with being the lynch, if only to prevent a power role from being lynched.

Montmorency
01-16-2012, 20:57
I thought weighted votes were the only non-vanilla aspect of this game.

Ishmael
01-16-2012, 20:58
Didn't you say you were a Big 'Un? If so, shouldn't you be a power role, or am I reading this incorrectly?




The older and stronger of the children form the second tier of the tribe:- The 'Big 'Uns'. Though fewer in number, The Big 'Uns possess various characteristics and traits which raise them above their younger peers; granting them individual abilities and lending their opinions greater weight during Tribal decision-making.

Oh man.

Unvote, vote: Landlubber

Someone is going to be lynched day one, and you're apparently so paranoid that you will hit a town power role, you'd rather self-vote, draw attention to yourself, and get yourself lynched, and need I remind you, as a double-voter, you ARE a power role.

This sort of nonsensical behavior is explicable if, let's say, it's bull feces reasoning for a scum trying to explain away his scummy behavior.

Lesson learned: No do that stuff anymore.

Resting in a musty tree
Lies a FREE SPIRIT; landlubber, me.
Convinced the town that I was scum,
but little did they know that it had just begun.

Now, I offer you a chance.
Redeem yourselves, fall out of my dance.
Lynch me yes or lynch me not,
This decision requires a lot of thought.

I've won, I've got you, you can't beat me!
All the victors are the ones that are FREE.
I tire of this, let me just begin.
Here's my entire role PM:



You are a FREE SPIRIT (anti-town)
Your teammates are ___________________ (blanked out by me, of course.)
A Quicktopic has been set up here (not linking you to that, sorry)

Background:
You dwell in the dark forests of Limbo, away from. How long you have been here has escaped you, as has how exactly you arrived at Limbo. You do know that you are the leader of the Free Spirits, a group of children that have managed to evade a dreadful existence as Lost Souls. During the day, you wander to the Tribe and monitor their activities. While within the territory of the Tribe, you exist as little more than a shadow, and you can only keep in this form if sunlight is present- or, what sunlight exists in the dark forests of Limbo. During the night, all Free Spirits plan an attack on the Lost Souls. Your goal is to gain control over this section of Limbo. You believe that, if you do this, you shall be able to escape Limbo once and for all.


Abilities:
You don't have much influence in the Tribe. During the day, your vote carries a strength of: .5 (this is not directly revealed in the tally)
The Free Spirits are aggressive beings. During the night, the Free Spirits may kill one person as a group.
The Free Spirits are very protective of each other. If you are ever lynched by the Tribe while you are in their camp, the surviving Free Spirits gain an additional kill on every even numbered night.


Victory conditions:

So, you have a bit of a choice. Lynch your "confirmed mafia," or keep me alive in order to ensure the we, the FREE SPIRITS, have only one kill for the rest of the game.
Of course, I could be lying, and not have the ability I say I do at all. In this case, you should lynch me.
OR, I could be lying even more and just be a townie trying to have a bit of fun after I started an unintentional bandwagon on myself followed by deliberately scummy behavior. :laugh4:

The only reason you would do such a reveal is to try and scare the town into not lynching you. So, it makes it difficult to take your threats of "Go ahead! Lynch me! Look at the bad things that'll happen to you if you do!" seriously when it is obviously a ploy to spare you from the lynch, as you have no reason to reveal that information (if it is even true) otherwise.

Oh, and quoting this so he can't edit it out:


You are a FREE SPIRIT (anti-town)
Your teammates are ___________________ (blanked out by me, of course.)
A Quicktopic has been set up here (not linking you to that, sorry)

Background:
You dwell in the dark forests of Limbo, away from. How long you have been here has escaped you, as has how exactly you arrived at Limbo. You do know that you are the leader of the Free Spirits, a group of children that have managed to evade a dreadful existence as Lost Souls. During the day, you wander to the Tribe and monitor their activities. While within the territory of the Tribe, you exist as little more than a shadow, and you can only keep in this form if sunlight is present- or, what sunlight exists in the dark forests of Limbo. During the night, all Free Spirits plan an attack on the Lost Souls. Your goal is to gain control over this section of Limbo. You believe that, if you do this, you shall be able to escape Limbo once and for all.


Abilities:
You don't have much influence in the Tribe. During the day, your vote carries a strength of: .5 (this is not directly revealed in the tally)
The Free Spirits are aggressive beings. During the night, the Free Spirits may kill one person as a group.
The Free Spirits are very protective of each other. If you are ever lynched by the Tribe while you are in their camp, the surviving Free Spirits gain an additional kill on every even numbered night.

Oh, how I laugh at this tomfoolery...

My FREE SPIRIT partners shall prevail, and the town shall fail. I say it proudly: I AM FREE.
FREER THAN ANY OF YOU COULD EVER HOPE TO BE.
AND WHEN WE TRIUMPH, AND ALL YOUR BODIES ARE SMASHED INTO THE GROUND BY OUR POWER, ONLY THEN SHALL YOU THINK ABOUT THESE DECISIONS THAT YOU'VE MADE.
ONLY THEN WILL YOU THINK, "oh, wait, we should have kept him alive." BECAUSE I'M YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE, AND YOU'RE IN LIMBO, SO YOU'VE PROBABLY HAD LOTS OF BAD DREAMS.
I'M THE WORST.
I'M THE WORST.

Unvote; Vote : landlubber

Interesting logic. Well, if what you say is true, we should lynch you immediately. After all, that's how we win: lynching Mafia.

That's the idea. To lynch Mafia. And eventually, we will happen on another mafioso. He probably won't be so kind as to reveal, as you have done. So the same dual kill mechanic will take effect. No real difference, then. Maybe one or two townies will die sooner. Or maybe your early demise will create a net gain!

Moreover, we get to take a Mafia vote out of consideration - even if its only a weak half-vote.

:bow:

*There are only 3 Mafia, maybe even two. Any more with this mechanic would be OP.*

landlubber
01-16-2012, 23:52
You are out of touch with reality, my dear Montmorency. You think lynching me will BENEFIT you? The FREE SPIRITS laugh at your thought.
I cannot stress how HAPPY I am to see this playing out the way it has. Even dead, I'll still be more alive than you. I'll be watching, from the shadows, listening intently. I'll guide my FREE SPIRITS to the gates of Heaven.
And you can join us, Montmorency. All you have to do is keep your vote me, and you'll become FREE like me.
That's right, there's ANOTHER mechanic that I never told you about. UNTIL NOW
EVERY SINGLE PERSON THAT VOTES FOR ME DURING MY LYNCH BECOMES A FREE SPIRIT!
HAHAHAHAHA.
THAT'S RIGHT! IN A FEW HOURS, WE WILL BE STRENGTHENED BEYOND BELIEF.
ANYTHING TO SAY FOR YOURSELVES? NO? I DIDN'T THINK SO.
I WIN, YOU LOSE. GAME OVER. HAVE A NICE DAY, LOST SOULS.

LazyMcCrow
01-17-2012, 01:55
"It was me! I did it!"

Landlubber marched across the centre of the camp with a swagger. Most of the smaller children moved instinctively away from him, but one or two followed after him, submissive and shocked, but also intent on hearing what he might say next.
There was food enough in the pot for the day and no-one felt much like chores after the excitement of the previous night, and as the weight of what Landlubber was saying sunk in, almost all the Tribe had soon gathered in expectant groups around the fire pit.

As the day drew on there was much talk and argument. Landlubber's wild claim was soon common knowledge and - as some of the other children began to point the finger at him with scowls and dark looks - the big lads swagger soon turned to foot-shifting discomfort.

"Of course I didn't do it actually, I was just saying I could've done it if I'd wanted to! Isn't that right?" Landlubber looked searchingly for some sympathy for another of the Big 'Uns, but found nothing but grimaces and confusion from his peers.

As more and more of the Tribe put aside their personal squabbles and spoke out against Landlubber, the boy developed a desperate look. His eyes began twitching and he giggled - no-one knew whether it was from fear or if indeed, the boy had turned to madness.

"I say it proudly: I AM FREE.
FREER THAN ANY OF YOU COULD EVER HOPE TO BE.
AND WHEN WE TRIUMPH, AND ALL YOUR BODIES ARE SMASHED INTO THE GROUND BY OUR POWER, ONLY THEN SHALL YOU THINK ABOUT THESE DECISIONS THAT YOU'VE MADE."

As the day drew to a close, Landlubber thrashed about in the circle, shouting and ranting about being a Free Spirit after all. The Little 'Uns shied away from him, wincing at the violence in his words, but the circle around the fire pit was consolidated now and the weight of numbers shifted subtly, as Landlubber ranted and raved, to make sure the Big 'Un was gifted no chances to flee.

As the sun set, it seemed the matter was settled. Various of the cursed children still pointed fingers at one another, but the majority were now firmly pointed at the Big 'Un sitting by the fire at the dusty circles centre.

As first finger pointer, the duty fell to Visorslash to deal out the punishment.

The boys face was grim as he stepped to the weapons rack. The crowd hushed as he approached the 'Hogknocker', but then whispered excitedly as Visorslash passed by the huge club, and drew instead the Tribes machete from its place on the rack.

Silently, flanked by several other accusers armed with sharpened stakes, Visorslash approached the now kneeling Landlubber. He addressed the judged boy in little more than a hushed whisper

"You may be a Big 'Un, but no-one here is bigger than the Tribe. You think you can stick Arjos like a hog without any one else to say so? You've had your say, but no more.. y'hear? … No more."

Three of the other children pinned Landlubbers arms tightly to his side, and scraps of twine and creeper were quickly used to bind him.. but the boy made no move to defend himself, just looked slowly up at Visorslash and said quietly

"It wasn't me. I AM Tribe… I am...."

But Visorslash simply stared back and raised the machete slowly to Landlubbers chin

"It was your words got you in to this mess and we'll see to it now that you speak no more"

One of the children squeezed Landlubbers mouth open and the boy keened and spluttered as he realised what was to happen to him. A couple of children stabbed at him, making shallow punctures in Lanlubbers flanks and legs. Wild eyed he made to scream, but the sound was muffled as his tongue was yanked at and pulled taught over his jaw.

"No more" Visorslash repeated once again and crows cawed and flapped their disturbance as Landlubber screamed his last.

Before darkness had fallen, Landlubber was stuffed into a crate which was hauled up until it was swinging gently in the breeze from the bows of a large Elm tree. His bleary eyes streamed with tears, but his strength to scream out at his pain had ebbed, as his blood slowly drained from his wounds.

His accusers stood in solemn ceremony at the ledge below.

With the sentence carried out, the Tribe resumed some kind of normality, quickly preparing for the night ahead. All knew that by midnight Landlubber would be dead but more than a few of them worried that he may not be the only one.

NOTE ON THE TALLY: The tally is presented with the Strongest vote down to the weakest. The numerical Strength is not presented to the players. If the overall strength of two or more votes are tied then the person with the most individuals voting for them is shown higher up the list.

This is done purely to make it more difficult to identify Big 'Uns amongst the Little 'Uns and has no bearing on the strength of the vote. ie: any lynch ties would be decided randomly.

Landlubber self-voted, said it was just a day one vote; landlubber OMGUS voted, and did other deliberately "classically" scummy behavior which scums don't really do that often to be frank, but the outing of himself as a big-un seemed fake to me.

That said, I find his story about gaining some power if he dies totally believable because his play was very seriously, and deliberately, trying to die day one.

So, he was mafia, and he is a larger threat dead than alive. His vote wasn't even a threat to us because it was worth .5, so we didn't really gain much by removing it.

We fell for the tactic hook line and sinker, and BTW, landlubber is awesome but he does not pull off those sorts of shenanigans just for the heck of it. It's not in his character. He's a pretty collected guy, and this was out of character for him. Now, me, I'd personally create the most unbelievable nonsense and shout it as loud as possible so everyone can hear, but not landlubber. So, I am guessing his behavior is directly related to his role and his goal, so he was being at least semi-honest with us.

Prepare for the backlash of falling for his nonsense. I betcha no mafia actually voted for him, because they know, that's the first place we'd look.

NIGHT ONE

As the evening wore on and darkness encroached, a thick mist descended over the forest of Limbo. Usually this gave the children of the Lost Tribe an extra sense of enclosure and veiled protection from the eyes of predators, but after what had happened to Arjos, it was decided that no chances should be taken and the patrols were doubled with strict instructions that no child should patrol alone.

From one of the platforms above the main gate, classical_hero peered into the murk. The mist seemed to wrap itself around everything - even the timbers of the gatehouse appeared to be shrouded in a grey blur. He waved his hand in front of his face and watched the coils of mist displace. So much for the watchtower - you could barely see the end of your own nose, let alone any approaching threat.

Classical_hero shivered as he recalled the events of the day. He had been able to see the horror on Landlubbers face as the boy's tongue had been cut out, and a sensation of dread so consumed him at the memory that he almost didn't hear his fellow watchman shouting up from the gloom below:

' Oy! 'Ero! I've set the first trap, but I can't reach the rope for the second! Come and give us a hand up!'

Wondering vaguely how someone as small as himself would be able to help set the trap, classical_hero carefully skinnied down the rope from the platform - the ground invisble through the thick fog until the second before his feet reached it.

The mantraps suspended on ropes from the structure of the gate were triggered by the thin lines of twine that criss-crossed the path in front of the Tribe's camp and classical_hero made his way forward cautiously so as not to upset the first trap his companion had set.

'Where are you?' he called into the soupy darkness

'Just here!' the voice called back, 'just step toward my voice! - you should be able to see me now?! - maybe a few more paces?'.

As classical_hero stepped forward, he was vaguely aware of a brief resistance against his shin, but the realisation that the second trap had already been set, and that he himself had activated it, didn't hit him until the soft 'whoomp' of the open man-trap swinging toward him through the fog reached his ears.

A split second after that; the mantrap itself hit classical_hero, it's sprung steel jaws cutting the boy in two as it swung out of the dark and plucked him from the ground.


Ishmael jogged along the perimeter track as it curved downhill toward the caves from the West, when a shout from the bushes close behind caused him to jump with shock.

'Oy you! Come 'ere! You know you're not supposed to be out 'ere on yer own!'

Ishamel's legs followed their natural instincts and began to sprint away from the direction of the voice as quickly as they could.

'OY!' the voice behind him shouted once more and Ishmael could hear whoever it was break in to a run behind him. The track at this point was bordered on each side by high dense prickly bushes which brushed against Ishmaels arms if he strayed from his course, and so he was able to maintain a fair speed as he attempted to evade his pursuer... But the sound of the footsteps did not fade - if anything they seemed to be gaining. Ishmael ran on - vaguely aware that the path he was heading down would soon reach the caves where -unless he could quickly backtrack - he would be cornered. He could hear the sound of his pursuers ragged breathing, as he reached the entrance to the cave that led to the underground lake, but then the sound of the footsteps behind him coming to an abrupt halt. Momentum carried him on and suddenly he flinched and dropped to his knees as something landed on his head.

Immediately Ishmael felt the Brainworm burrow its' tiny tendrils into his scalp. His vision leapt and pulsed and he felt himself lurch from left to right as if on a boat, as the parasite took control of his nervous system.

Unbidden, Ishmaels' legs began to move, carrying him further into the caves. A luminous moss growing on the walls of the cave emitted an eerie light and though Ishmael was dimly aware of the sound of his pursuer slowly following him, as he lurched ever downward, he could not turn his head to see who it was.

Ishmael's eyes widened in horror as his legs spasmodically carried him down to the underground lake. Ishamel tried to stop, but he merely succeeded in slowling down as the Brainworm forced him onward, splashing into the shallows. Numbly, he felt the cold water rise steadily up his body, but was powerless to resist, and finally he pitched forward into the cold blackness of the water.

At the side of the lake, observing Ishamels' corpse bob to the surface, the figure that had pursued him giggled quietly to himself.

I received what is purportedly a private message exchange between Chaotix and who he thinks is the mafia. And there were several of them.

That said, it almost certainly has to be fake, or else someone made the biggest mafia-related fumble in years. I just got back from a hotel stay and I have to head immediately to work, so I can't go into details. My advice would be to hold off on a ginormous wagon before Chaotix can present a defense, and indeed, even be properly charged with a crime.

Ishmael
01-18-2012, 22:49
Having clarified something, I'd like to slightly change my stance on this issue. I'm now slightly less certain that Chaotix killed me - say 75% certain, instead of 99%. I still think you should lynch him based on the evidence at hand, but if he makes a solid case for himself I wouldn't write it off. Try not to pile too many votes on the bandwagon just yet.

landlubber
01-18-2012, 23:06
You can thank me for the Chaotix thing. Chaotix contacted me just minutes before day one ended, saying that he's the Bully. His goal is apparently to kill all the Little 'Uns. He has a kill, but it fails if he uses it on a Big 'Un. Thinking quickly, I chose Montmorency and Zack as my "Free Spirit" partners, only because they were the most vocal to my lynch. So, you could say it was random in a way, and they're at no fault. No, they're probably not actually Free Spirits.
They both played along beautifully. Zack contacted me briefly for clarification, but Montmorency didn't even have a clue what the heck I was doing. He just ran with it. Some might call that suspicious. I call that badass.
Anyway, my "mafia partners" claimed to be targeting ATPG. My guess is that they wanted to forward those PMs to him. Chaotix said he was targeting Ishmael. I take this as confirmation that he's actually anti-town. After some fake banter about who would become the new leader of the Free Spirits, I haven't heard anything else from Montmorency or Zack. If there are any others involved, I know nothing of them.

Now, some would ask, "Why should we believe him? He's mafia!"
I'm not. Why would I reveal this is I was anything but pro-town? Why would I choose two people who would spread the PMs around willy-nilly to be my partners? I know better than that. I've been playing this game for a while.
That leads to an even greater conundrum. What in the world was I doing day one? Frankly, I don't know. I voted myself for no specific reason, but one thing lead to another, and, before I knew it, I had a burgeoning bandwagon on myself. My attempts to explain my behavior came off as scummy, and, once I realized that I probably couldn't stay in the game after such a rocky day one, I decided to have a little bit of fun. I forged a PM and made laughably villainous posts. It was just a bit of day one fun. That's what it started out as, at least. Once Chaotix fell into a trap I didn't even know I had set, I thought on my feet and told people without screaming "CHAOTIX IS MAFIA" right before I was lynched. I mean, let's face it, who would believe me? Now that it's common knowledge, I feel that it's my job to explain everything.

Montmorency
01-18-2012, 23:21
Well, there are two other possibilities: 1. Chaotix forged his PM to fish for your partners, and the Mafia have double kills on odd nights, not even. So you had Ishmael killed to sow suspicion between us and get Chaotix lynched.

2. Chaotix is a serial killer and killed Ishmael, but the Free Spirits double as Little Ones and you betrayed him as a threat to them.

So I figure it's good odds on Chaotix. If it's the former here, there will be only one kill tonight, so we'll at least have definite evidence if we've messed up.

Ishmael
01-18-2012, 23:31
I'll chip in with my sequence of events, constructed through my behind the scenes conversations with Montmorency (obviously if he is mafia then much of this goes out the window):

Montmorency forwards me a PM (forwarded to him by landlubber) in which Chaotix claims to be the Bully (a serial killer role), and that he will be targeting me tonight. I decide not to act on this as I figured that if I died, we would have caught a SK. However, I only realised this morning that 'Chaotix's' PM was not sent directly to Montmorency and Zack, but was actually forwarded to them by landlubber. Thus, we only have landlubber's word that Chaotix actually sent 'his PM, and I'm not sure I'm buying his claim that he isn't mafia. The scenario's we've come up with to explain this are:

1. Landlubber is mafia, and Chaotix is the serial killer. For an indeterminate reason landlubber wanted to get rid of the SK, and thus forwarded his PM along to Zack and Montmorency in order to see Chaotix lynched.
2. The above, but landlubber is an innocent townie (his version of events)
3. Chaotix is actually townie, and was trying to bait the mafia into revealing themselves with a false claim. The mafia decided to carry out his claimed kill on me in order to frame him and waste a lynch phase.
4. Landlubber is mafia, and forged Chaotix's PM in order to waste a lynch.

Thus, Chaotix could plausibly be a townie, as the main argument against him comes solely from landlubber, who's motives are questionable. Give him a chance to explain himself, at least.

scottishranger
01-18-2012, 23:41
If we can take out a serial killer who wants to kill little uns, then chaotix needs to die. However I will wait for ATPG's explanation before continuing the bandwagon.

If we dont lynch chaotix, what other targets do we have? none that I am aware of.

No, no, see, Chaotix acknowledged it and everything. Chaotix himself replied (after the forwarding). He was CCed in all the communications. It would be strange, if he would be party to his own framing.

Let's just get everything out in the open, why don't we?







Listen up, Free Spirit.

I know you've got friends, and I believe you're probably telling the truth about those extra kills.

Well, I'm the Bully. I'm not strictly on your side, but I'm not totally on the Lost Souls' side, either. In fact, my victory condition doesn't concern you at all.

In order for me to win, I just have to make sure all the Little Ones die. And I can kill them myself. Can't kill Big Ones, though - the kill won't go through.

So, I'd like an alliance of sorts. Your friends don't kill me, and I help you tear apart the Lost Souls.

If you want to be certain that I don't kill any of your friends by accident, then you'll give me the name of one of them so I can clear kills with him beforehand. Otherwise, I'm fine with not knowing, but I won't be held accountable for accidentally killing one of your buddies (I don't know if it's possible for me to kill a Free Spirit, but since you guys are small I'm assuming the positive).

I'll let you know right now that tonight I'm gunning for Ishmael.

PM me back with your decision. Remember that I wouldn't be telling you all this if I didn't think we could come to some sort of agreement.
Yes... good...
Arjos isn't really a FREE SPIRIT. Saying that was part of the plan.
Zack and Montmorency are my companions. I've CCd them. It was part of the plan for them to react like this to my reveal.
This alliance could be very beneficial for both of us. Work as a team, you three. Win the game. AVENGE ME IN MY DEATH.

Good show, gentlemen. All has gone according to plan. Tonight, we shall kill Pizza. This is my decree as second-in-command, taking over for landlubber.

So ATPG and Ishmael die tonight.

And I'm fairly certain that Arjos was a Little One, so I have you to thank for that.

I look forward to working with you both.
Wait, who named Monty second-in-command?

I'm second-in-command, and I say we kill askthepizzaguy!

Let's agree to agree for now.


So now everybody is in the know about the communications with myself and the "Free Spirits".

I make no denials. I am what I am.

But Montmorency and Zack are claiming a double bluff along with landlubber; that they are indeed not the free spirits. I'm pretty sure they are lying. That lynch write-up for landlubber was pretty explanatory, unless the host is fond of misleading write-ups (which is, of course, possible).

And I didn't tell the free spirits everything I knew, either. My victory condition is with the town. I know that the last two free spirits are Little Ones, so having me around to help you kill them could be very useful. And I do have to kill them in order to win.

So put simply, to win fully I have to make sure all the Little Ones die, then win with the town. Otherwise I get a minor victory just winning with the town itself, which I can accept because I don't really have much of a choice now.

Anyway, my point is that the Lost Tribe needs me alive rather than dead right now, or else you don't stand a chance of getting rid of the Free Spirits. Kill me now, and you just wasted a lynch. Then you need two (or if I am wrong about landlubber, three) more correct lynches before you can win- you have at most seven people still alive if you get lucky, and you have two lynches of leeway. That's not a whole lot.

You have me with you, and we can use today's lynch for something useful, and during the night I will become the instrument of your wrath. I won't attack unless you tell me to, and we have two chances to wipe out a Free Spirit every day/night as opposed to one. Our chances rise significantly. And I am not a danger to the town, because I can physically not wipe you out. I can't kill Big Ones.

So don't kill me. Manipulate me. That is my request.

Vote: Montmorency

What you say is fair and orderly, but:

1.
That lynch write-up for landlubber was pretty explanatory, unless the host is fond of misleading write-ups (which is, of course, possible).

Taking the writeup at face value would force us to conclude that landlubber was town.

2.
I won't attack unless you tell me to,

Who is "you, precisely? This is merely pandering.

3.
Vote: Montmorency

And all that talk of preventing a wasted lynch - to nought? At any rate, if you survive the Mafia will merely kill you.

Caught in an inconsistency. The writeup clearly states that I was a BIG 'UN. If it's necessary for me to go back and point it out, I will, but you should be able to find it. It's something like someone saying, "I don't care if you're a BIG 'UN, you've confessed to being a Free Spirit." Pick one. Was I mafia, and happened to be the only Free Spirit masquerading as a BIG 'UN, or am I not mafia, and the Free Spirits are all LITTLE 'UNS?

landlubber
01-19-2012, 02:12
Well, there are two other possibilities: 1. Chaotix forged his PM to fish for your partners, and the Mafia have double kills on odd nights, not even. So you had Ishmael killed to sow suspicion between us and get Chaotix lynched.
I'm going to clarify something. The Free Spirits never got another kill due to any of my actions. I have no knowledge that they have more than one kill. Don't believe me? Just watch the rest of the game. Free Spirits get one kill, Chaotix gets another. Based on what I know, there will never be a third kill. Period. Until you show me a third kill, I don't want to hear anything more about an extra Free Spirit kill.

Montmorency
01-19-2012, 02:27
Very well. If there is only one kill after a Chaotix lynch on both Nights 2 and 3, that would serve to clear you.

One question, Chaotix: who did you attack on N0?

landlubber
01-19-2012, 03:54

Tell you what. I'm giving you two chances to nail a scumbag, four if you count your night kills. Take your best shot. I won't vote for you for the next two rounds, with extensions granted for every scumbag you kill, and generous ones at that.

Was I mafia, and happened to be the only Free Spirit masquerading as a BIG 'UN, or am I not mafia, and the Free Spirits are all LITTLE 'UNS?

To be honest, my mind started to change about halfway through writing that post, and I didn't look back for inconsistencies. Looking back at the write-up and your own words, I can conclude that is probably just about as likely that you pulled this Free Spirit nonsense out of nowhere and then decided to play a trick on me as the possibility that you really are a Free Spirit.

So right now I'm considering two possibilities:

1. You are the Free Spirit leader. Monty and Zack may or may not be your real allies. In either case, you have two underlings and they are both Little Ones, to balance out you being a Big One.

2. You had some fun with your Day 1 lynch. There are two Free Spirits and they are both Little Ones, because that's the kind of vibe I'm getting from this game and it makes sense in context with my own role.


Chaotix, I'd be willing to spare your life to make things more interesting around here.

Deal or no deal, wooly bully?

So the question here is: do I want you to condemn me to death or not? Obviously I choose the former. I was planning on trying to find the Free Spirits anyway. But only you not voting for me is not going to keep me alive.


Chaotix, your points are interesting.
I want to know how you can know that remaining free spirits are the little Uns?
for now, unvote.
Waiting for info from you

See above. It makes sense to me that in order for this game to be balanced, I should be able to kill Free Spirits just as they can kill me.

I don't know who to vote for, as I am bewildered at the moment. Part of me still wants to believe Monty and Zack are the real scum and playing a really dangerous game. The other part wants to go back to square one. I'll come up with something soon.

The person who I attacked on Night 0 is clearly viewable in the write-up. I'm not going to say why that's potentially dangerous information; figure it out yourselves.

I'll reiterate: the main benefit for keeping me alive is that we get double the chances to take out Free Spirits AND they have to kill me if they want it to stop. In all likelihood, they'll kill me anyway, so why bother wasting this lynch?

DAY TWO

The first of the mornings more onerous tasks involved cleaning up the mess that had been classical_hero and disposing of it in a shallow grave. No ceremony was observed but for a few moments silence, but it was a silence less to do with honouring the dead, and more to do with having little to say.

Once the Tribe had realised that Ishmael was missing, the children were organised into gangs to scour the territory for any sign of him. It wasn't until mid-afternoon that one of the parties found his corpse in the underground lake and once the information had been passed around, they had all gathered in the evening at the firepit, everyone appearing to be in a foul or dejected mood.

It soon became evident that secret discussions had occured; regarding the identity of the Free Spirits as well as an additional danger - apparently a Big 'Un who was intent on killing the Little 'Uns of the Tribe.

Chaotix was quickly fingered as 'The Bully' and soon admitted his goal, but pleaded with the assembled that he might be of use to the tribe in rooting out any remaining Free Spirits and that he would be a servant to the Tribe - no more a threat, now that his plans had been brought into the open.

Very few of the Tribe spoke up, and of those that did, the ony ones to point a finger did so with grim determination; at the unmasked Bully.

First to have pointed the finger, Montmorency glanced about him at his fellow voters and - getting the gist - the trhee others quickly leapt at chaotix and overpowered him.
Montmorency appeared to take no pleasure in his task, but neither did he shirk from it, and - hefting the weapon from its place on the rack with some difficulty - dragged the black club over to the whipping post at which Chaotix was being bound.

Montmorency looked about him, at the wide eyes and unhappy faces and addressed the assembled:

'Any of you who don't want to see this, can look away if you want... no-one will think the worse of you... But we should all witness this... we should all take courage that we are keeping our Tribe safe... safe and alive by putting this Bully in his place'

He turned to Chaotix

'And your place is in the mud'

Resolute, Montmorency hefted the club to his shoulder and then raised it as far above and behind him as he could manage without toppling over.

Throwing himself toward Chaotix, Motmorency swung the Hogknocker and it made a dull wet sound as it glanced off the side of Chaotixs' face before crunching down onto his shoulder, where one of the cruel spikes embedded itself.

The big boy's eyes rolled back, blood bubbling from his nose and mouth, but he remained semi-conscious and began to wail incoherently and thrash about as far as his bonds would allow.

'Help me get him down from there!' snarled Montmorency 'I can't lift the club high enough! ...Get him on his knees'

The club was pulled the club from Chaotix's shoulder while his bonds were untied and the large boy slumped to the floor unbidden - sobbing and gurgling with pain. Montmorency once again hefted the club up to his shoulder and this time, letting the weight of the terrible weapon do its bloody work, brought the spiked head firmly down onto Chaotix's own.

The Tribe was silent as those who had voted for Chaotix dragged his body from the circle, to be disposed of in the woods and cleaned up the mess of brain and blood from the ground as best as they could.

A Big 'Un strode to the circles centre

'Everyone needs to be careful and to shout out at the first sign of trouble! Make no mistake - we're not out of this yet! But if we stick together, we'll get to the bottom of this - I bet we will!

...Now who's for some supper?'

NIGHT TWO

'If you think you heard something you better climb down then!'

Jarema scratched his head and peered into the darkness beyond the fire, but could see nothing. He could have sworn he'd heard some stones shift on the approach to the camp below, but didn't much fancy - as his companion suggested - climbing down to meet whatever it was that had caused it.

'Look - We better not set these off unless we're sure. if you see anything - just shout and get out of the way. I'll set off the tyres and then skinny down the ladder if you need me to!'

Jarema shrugged. Maybe it had just been a small animal or something, but the ground below the centre of the camp was usually devoid of life - the many surrounding traps usually putting pay to any further forays into Lost Tribe territory.

He turned back into the cave and swiftly descended the rickety wooden ladder behind the lookout ledge. Reaching the bottom, he turned returned to the cave's front entrance and slowly made his way out into the gloom.

'There!' he heard his companions' cry from the ledge above 'There was something small moving down the channel by the stream! - see if you can catch it!'

Jarema paused. Maybe it was something good to eat! The Guineafrog was almost finished and what with all the trouble in the camp, the basic domestic duties such as hunting, cooking, cleaning - well - everything really, had been neglected. The growling in his belly decided the matter and Jarema jogged stealthily forward into the deep channel of earth that ran down to the stream.

His eyes could make out nothing in the gloom and he soon reached the deep stream without sighting any prey.

A rumble behind him soon caught his attention though and turning back up the channel Jarema was shocked to see a large flaming tyre picking up speed as it rolled down the gully toward him.

'WAIT!' Jarema cried 'WHat're you DOING!'

Without enough time to scramble up either side of the channel, Jarema crouched and then hurled himself upwards as the tyre roared over the patch of earth and into the stream - a black plume of smoke rising behind it.

Instead of being knocked into the deep cold stream, as he'd expected to be; Jarema found himself , though face down in the dust, coughing and spluttering in the rubber smoke - still quite alive. He'd cleared it! He'd leapt the tyre trap! Wait til the other Little 'Uns heard what he'd....

'WHOOOooFF!'

There was no leaping over the second tyre as it blazed down the gully and into the stream. Even if Jarema hadn't been sprawled in the dirt, the second burning wheel of rubber was a huge tractor tyre which picked Jarema up in its melting treads as it rolled over him, and deposited him in the bottom of the now steaming stream.

There was a great deal of confusion in the camp once the alarm was finally raised. By the time everyone - except Jarema - was accounted for no-one could be certain who was supposed to be patrolling with the Little 'Un and no-one was admitting to being the last one to see him alive. As the sun came up and the tribe found themselves exhausted but still without a clue as to who was to blame.

It was clear that the real threat to the Tribe was still very present and still very much in their midst and it was decided that they all go straight to the Fire Pit to get the voting started.

No-one would eat until the matter was settled.

Ai, sorry for missing the vote yesterday (last game day, in any case).

As an apology, for today, let me try and understand the landlubber kerfuffle.

This is all the information I consider to be critical:

Landlubber, upon first being targeted, says he's a Big 'Un.
When the lynch votes get serious, he says he's a Free Spirit; his quoted PM says 0.5 vote strength and one kill power increase per two nights per Free Spirit lynch. Not long after adds that everyone who votes for a Free Spirit will become one.
He dies, appears as a Big 'Un in the write-up.
He says there was a point to his death, and that he forged the PM (especially the kill power increase.)
He also says that Chaotix is a Bully (victory when all Little 'Uns die), that he randomly picked Monty and Zack as partners, and didn't plan to get Chaotix in hot water.



Monty says Chaotix is dangerous to "we the Free Spirits".
Also says Chaotix saw all communication between landlubber and himself, confirming anything mentioned



Chaotix told landlubber he was Bully, with victory conditions favoring neither side, asks for alliance.
Targets Ishmael, while "Free Spirits" go after ATPG.
Reveals to all that all Little Un's dead is a minor victory, needs town to win for full victory.
Says he knows that there are two remaining Free Spirits, both of whom are Little 'Uns.
Explains by above by saying it's "sensible" since the game needs balancing mechanics.


This is what I think it means:

Chaotix's stated target actually died so the Bully role seems to make sense. The part about knowing about the number and type of remaining Free Spirits seems to be just speculation stated as fact so he can seem more knowledgable.
Landlubber cocked up in the beginning of the game, decided the best he could do to make up for it is to confuse everyone and so remain important. He's just a straight up Big 'Un with a vengeful heart.

I realise that means I don't really have a strong case against anyone. Montmorency comes off as the most suspicious simply for being in the middle of all of this, not hesitating to point fingers, and not being clear about whether the Chaotix communications were single or double bluffs. I'm happy to change my opinion if any stronger cases appear.

1. Blame landlubber for forwarding the PM to me.

2. What can I say, he was a Serial Killer. Although lynching him was indeed short-sighted.

3. I'm not sure I understand your meaning here. Chaotix's reveal was forwarded to me and Zack by landlubber, who claimed we were his partners to Chaotix. Zack and I went along with it, and Chaotix seemed to buy it. I waited to see whether Ishmael would indeed be killed, and when he was, outed Chaotix as a Serial Killer. It wasn't an overly complicated affair.

DAY THREE

The Tribe had reached some kind of tipping point. Several of the Tribe voted to leave Limbo but this was not met with favourable responses from some of the others.
Eventually - after some pointed debate as well as several uncomfortable silences the day drew to a close and the Tribe rose to make its final choice. This day - every member of the tribe made their choice known, even if it was just to point the finger

Having first taken issue with Montmorency, Atheotes was quick to acknowledge his responsibility. To his credit, Montmorency did not blubber or wail - and certainly made no attempt to escape - he knew that it would be futile. Simply settling to his knees he quietly awaited his execution and took some comfort that it should not take more than one blow to finish him. Atheotes, took the huge club from the weapons rack and he made no bones about fulfilling his duty. Montmorency's hopes of survival were dashed into the dust- along with the contents of his skull.

NIGHT THREE

At first it felt as if he had been stung in the neck by one of the many large insectoid beasts that thrummed and buzzed through the evening haze, but as he instinctively reached up, Atheotes felt the fletchings of one of the Tribes' poison darts in his fingers. He tugged the dart from his throat and felt a warm dribble of blood run down his neck. The sound of his heartbeat filled his head and Atheotes sank to his knees - already the deadly poison was taking effect. As his vision began to blur, Atheotes was aware of a figure approaching him.

'You...' was all the Big 'Un could say as he crumpled to the floor racked with cramps.

'Yes' said the figure above him. 'You can die now.'

Atheotes had no choice but to comply.

IT IS NOW DAY FOUR. You have approx. 24 hours to vote.

There's something more to this game setup than just lynching scumbags.

What's with all this "Vote: Leave Limbo" stuff?

And landlubber's bizarre role.

I get the feeling if we just keep doing more or less random lynches we aren't going to get anywhere. I think this may be a host-trap kind of game setup, with a big twist, like Golden Rule or Zack Mafia.

I'm happy to accuse people randomly as I'm expected to but I'd also like to resolve this nagging suspicion I'm supposed to be solving a mystery too.

Also if the answers to this are written in plain sight somewhere, I'll cop to not reading every detail of the game, sorry. Bad townie and all that. I have been sick though.

There’s a place called limbo
On this side of the wall
There’s a place called limbo
But it ain’t no place at all
Tryin’ to be patient-
I’m waitin’ for a call

That letter hasn’t come yet
The phone didn’t ring, it’s true
And though I haven’t won yet
I’ll tell you what I’ll do

I’ll be Leaving Limbo
Though they say odds are not strong
I’ll be Leaving Limbo
‘Cause I can prove them wrong
That door will swing wide open
And I’ll move right along

I'm going to take a wild guess that the free spirit win condition is getting enough to vote to leave limbo. Like a cult that openly recruits. Judging by the votes, and the fact we're still voting, they are not strong enough to just win outright yet. We need to resist the urge, and gang up on those who claim there is an easy way out.

Zack, you were the first one to vote to leave limbo. How did you find out about this possibility?

Scottishranger, you were the first to point out a connection between leaving limbo and Little 'Uns "uniting". What do you mean?

Montmorency, you voted to leave limbo a few days ago, are now dead, but keep repeating you will leave limbo in the future. Is there a minimum bangwagon size needed for the vote to go through?

DAY FOUR

Hunger. Painful, gnawing hunger. Most of the remaining members of the Tribe were subdued by it to the point of silence and sat around listlessly, trying to drum up the energy to do anything that might change their predicament. A few managed to head out and set the traps in the hope that there might be something for the pot the following day, but the fear of being killed in the night had clearly begun to psychologically scar those that had survived so far - significantly enough that two of the smaller children took it apon themselves for a second day to attempt to persuade the children to leave the camp... indeed: To leave Limbo.

Growing ever bolder in their calls for an exodus, their plan began to draw criticism. An undecided youngster - Askthepizzaguy, clearly famished to the point of confusion, apparently changed his mind several times before returning to his claim of previous days that the Little 'un known as 'scottishranger' was a Free Spirit and at the end of the day, the result of the vote was a tie between Leaving Limbo and doing away with scottishranger.

No-one could come to any conclusion however and as the vast majority had not voted at all it was decided that nothing should be done until everyone had got some more sleep. Perhaps no-one would be killed in the night! someone piped up.... and then hopefully, someone else muttered - if something had been caught in the night, that some breakfast might help.
Not everyone seemed particularly convinced.

NIGHT FOUR

Set at the edge of the campground against the inner wall, a tumbledown shack propped itself - half-heartedly contributing to the structure of the camp. Its walls held up; more by force of habit and an exhuberant beard of moss, than through proficient carpentry: The shack was home to the Cursed Child tasked with the duty of operating the huge model spider which hung over the entrance to the Western Gate. The spider creaked and swung in the wind like a harmless giant puppet, but it's heavy limbs could be sent crashing earthbound by a simple set of cogs and gears and operation of a lever. Not many of the tribe enjoyed the solitary post and the delapidated building was mainly occupied by the cursed child who had come to be known as Daveshack, who now stood and shivered with the mixture of cold and adrenalin - his eyes flitting between shadows as he searched for any sign of threat.

Even so - Daveshack was unprepared for the stealth with which his predator approached, but he was so keyed up with fear and survival instinct that when the figure behind him spoke, 'You can't stop it happening Dave' - his legs began beating a path away from his post, and the voice, and out of the camp into the night - almost before his brain instructed them to do so.

As quickly as Daveshack ran, his speed could not prevent the shallow stab of a spear lifting a diamond of flesh from his back, baring the white bone of his shoulder blade to the breeze. Daveshack yelped but kept his footing and did not pause as he pounded even faster away.
The ground slid from under him as he hit a steep slope of scree and he half ran - half fell into a warren of moss covered rocks and dark overhangs.

Holding his arms out in front of his face, Daveshack felt the slap of ancient creepers and the rake of branches as he thundered onward, but the sharp breathing of his pursuer seemed as steady as the foot falls that followed him.

Bouncing from the edge of the gully Dave stumbled and then found himself hanging in the air - his limbs windmilling helplessly as he tumbled through the dark - the breath knocked suddenly from his body and a sickening crunching sound as his ankle struck the rocky ground. Above him he heard the footsteps of his pursuer halt and then step forward... forward to the edge of the hole down which Daveshack had plummeted.

'Oh you don't want to be down there Daveshack... I've seen what lives down there' the voice of his tormentor hissed down at him.

Daveshack heard himself sobbing, but fought to lift himself onto his remaining working leg and began to hobble forward.

All about him was black. The pitch dark that made the small circle of wooded night above him almost gleam by comparison. shuffling on his hands and foot and dragging the splintered mess of his other, Daveshack clawed desperately away from the hole - searching for a way - some passage that might lead him to safety. His hands became tangled in what felt like dusty thread, and as Dave collapsed to the floor he felt himself stuck to it - immobilized by some cloying material which seemed to coat the floor of the cave into which the boy had fallen.

A skittering noise immediately in front of Dave caused his heart to take a sudden beat in reverse. Dave strained his neck in order to look up into the velvet blackness in front of his eyes. Then pale glowing circles began to pop into being before him, as the dread spider opened its own eyes to inspect its latest prey.

The beast filled the space before the prostrate Daveshack - a huge sack of guts and goassamer, suspended in the night atop its eight fearsome legs. Each limb folded and moved in three sections and each of those measured ten feet or more, ending at deftly cruel spikes - but this, of course, was lost on poor Daveshack and he remained blind to the horror that loomed before him in the dark.

With invisibly quick and gentle movements, Dave was plucked from the ground by the Spider's forelimbs and he quickly lost consciousness as the beast began to spin him about in the air - thick, pungent cords of web attached to a thin strong mesh which clung to him as if he'd been taped up in rubbish sacks.

The child who had pursued him glimpsed Daveshack - now coated completely in a cocoon of web - being attached to the ceiling of the spiders' lair, and smirked before leaping to his feet and running back through the night to the camp.

When morning came there would be no sign of Daveshack, and the Tribe would be one step closer to destruction.

IT IS NOW DAY FIVE - PLEASE REMEMBER TO VOTE! THERE WILL BE STRICT PENALTIES FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT. Day will end in approximately 36 - 48 hours.

What a waste of time. You guys keep lynching neutral Little Uns who are no harm to your precious town AT ALL, even though Monty and I -- two Little Uns -- gave you the serial killer on a nice silver platter. Thanks for the reward.

It looks like we're never going to get our wish to Leave Limbo anyways, and I really couldn't care less about the town's struggle against the Free Spirits. I suspect you'll lose anyways, since you're so determined in continuing on this course.

Whomever killed me must have been someone who wanted the leaving limbo movement to succeed, or at least it looks that way to me. Can't think of a reason for someone who wanted it fail to knock off someone else who voted against it. I think I might have been the first to openly post that leaving limbo might be the free spirit win condition, convincing others to vote against it. I was a townie little 'un with no abilities, and had never heard about leaving limbo as an option before it showed up as a vote, so I still suspect that path leads away from a town victory.

Montmorency

Ahem.


You are a LITTLE 'UN (Splitter - neutral faction)

Background:
You no longer remember how you found yourself in Limbo, nor how long you've been here. All you know is you are terrified of what the Big 'Uns in the Lost Tribe might do to you, but too scared to abandon the protection the Tribe offers; from the other fearsome creatures which prowl along the borders of the territory. Your days at best, are monotonous and usually involve helping the Big 'Uns to set traps, or perhaps forming a barrier with your fellow Little 'Uns to prevent a lost soul from escaping from a Big 'Uns killing blow: But recently there have been rumours whispering through the dank forest of Limbo... rumours of an altogether more dangerous type of soul. Souls known as Free Spirits.

You are scared of what the new threat represents but you also realise that its arrival may offer an opportunity for escape! You imagine that there must be someone else in the tribe, or maybe more who feel the same way you do; other cursed souls who long to leave Limbo: But you have no idea of who might be a sympathetic friend and who is unswervingly loyal to the Tribe.

Abilities:
You are small, weak and struggle to make yourself heard. During the day your vote in the tribe carries a strength of: 1 (this is not directly revealed in the tally)
At any point during any day phase you may choose to vote to "Leave Limbo", instead of voting for a lynch (eg. unvote: Lazy McCrow, vote: Leave Limbo!)
You do not have any night abilities.

Victory conditions:
Leave Limbo.

You are a BIG 'UN (pro-town)

Background:
You no longer remember how you found yourself in Limbo, nor how long you've been here. All you know is that your place in the front ranks of the Lost Tribe is your only hope for survival. By day, you protect your territory with brute force, either leading a pack of Little 'Uns; chasing through the deepening woods in search of Lost Souls to capture or kill, or through the construction of devious traps by which you might ensnare an enemy or at least some edible creature. Until now all foes have fallen to the combined strength of the tribe, but recently there have been rumours whispering through the dank forest of Limbo... rumours of an altogether more dangerous kind of soul: Souls known as "Free Spirits"!


Abilities:
You are larger and stronger than the majority of the cursed children and your voice carries greater weight than most others. During the day your vote in the tribe carries a strength of: 2 (this is not directly revealed in the tally)
You do not have any night abilities.

My Role PM, which you would have seen if you had been paying closer attention to my posts.

The Role PM which you, and only you, have provided.

Can somebody kill Zack already? His shoddy logic is getting annoying.

I keep trying but Lazy says I can't do that without a mafia role PM.

I tried to bypass that by telling him I was a serial killer but he didn't believe me, said "I would know if I made you a serial killer, I designed the game and sent the roles out."

Once again, red tape from an unelected bureaucrat game host stands in the way of true justice.
