Castle II - Re-Entry [Concluded]

[Cimmerian]

One wonders if Cimmerian may pull himself far enough away from Pokemon to remain active?

well...I would have replied earlier, but I had to breed some more Mudkips.


Vote W&F
Yes it is like 100000 words, but you might want to read the intro narrative.

Reminder

Cimmerian is sneaky. Never trust Cimmerian. Cimmerian is evil no matter what his role is

Now carry on

[naut]

Since there's nothing to analyse at the moment I'll just make a random vote:
Vote: The Amazing Me

[Zorg]

EDIT: Some details changed to reflect the order system.

I'll just sit back and watch then, the first round is usualy a random lynch anyway.

Now onto the important stuff. I have a few buisness anouncements to make:

------------------------------------------

Firstly, we have inventory. As it is near the start of the game weapons will cost you a little more than you might expect, but armour is still cheap. Here is the current set of prices:

• Longknife 4g
• Shortsword 6g
• Longsword 8g
• Bastardsword 10g
• Greatsword 12g
• Throwing knives 8g
• Shield 4g
• Leather Armour 4g
• Steel;
o Breastplate 4g
o Vambraces 4g
o Thighguards 4g

In addition, for TONIGHT ONLY (afternoon shopping) I'm holding an opening sale. Buy one item and get a second item of equal or lesser value at half price! This sale is for tonight alone, so get in while you can.

------------------------------------------

Secondly I am setting up an auctionhouse. If you have any items that arn't on my list (specialist items), that you don't want, you can now sell them through my shop! In the morning, drop off a note to me (or just tell me) saying:

- What the item is [description is also useful].
- What your starting asking price is for it.

The cost for posting a note is 1/4 of the starting asking price, rounding up (to the nearest g). Sellers will remain anonymous. You will also have to leave the item in my care, however to ensure your peace of mind I will give you a deposit of half your asking price on the item [this will not take place if your asking price is ridiculously high].

In my (well protected) shop will be an auction board where anyone can come in and see the items currently on auction (I suggest checking in once a day). Items will apear on the board the afternoon they are posted. If you see an item you would like to bid on than you can tell me what your maximum bid on said item is. All bidding must occur during the afternoon.

Once all bids are in [bidding will last for only that one afternoon] I will auction upwards by increments of 1g from all parties involved until only one is left. During the following day I will PM all involved to tell them whether they won or lost, and the winner will be told how much they are to pay for the item. The seller will also be informed of the amount they will receive.

That afternoon winners can come into the shop and pick up the item in exchange for the asking price. Sellers can also come in and will be given whatever the winner paid minus the deposit they already have.

I'm sure you'll agree this is a fair system and far easier than going to the trouble of finding someone interested in what you have to sell. Note: items which recieve no bids on the first night will remain on the auctionboard until there are bids (at no additional cost) or the seller retracts the item.

For refrence here is a timescale:
Morning (Day X) - Post item to be auctioned
Afternoon (Day X) - Item apears on board, bidding happens
Morning (Day X+1) - Winners/Losers/Sellers Notified
Afternoon (Day X+1) - Buyer gets item, Seller gets money.

So it runs over a total of 2 days.

------------------------------------------

Thirdly next to the auction board will be a notice board. The notice board will be a place where anyone can post messages anonymously. It costs 1g per message per day for a message of no more than 250 words [it will cost an additional 1g for every 250 words over this limit (eg. a 501 word message would cost 3g) . The message board will be open for everyone to see and I suggest that you check it out even if you arn't using it yourself.

------------------------------------------

Finally there are a few rules in reguards to my shop:

1. No violence within the shop, take your arguments outside.
2. No loitering outside the shop, or spying on those who come and go.
3. No trying to sell or auction flasly labeled or fake items.
4. No stealing.
5. We're only open for sale/auctions/notices in the morning and afternoon, don't be seen near the shop at night.

I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for whatever reason, but breaking these rules is the quickest way to get on my list of banned people. Violence may be used to stop you breaking a rule (a warning will always be given first).

------------------------------------------

And thats it for now. Happy shopping!

[pevergreen]

Im sorry, I really hope the mafia kill you Zorg.

[Killfr3nzy]

As a response to Zorg's incessant questioning, I'm popping in to clear up some details which may be a little confusing, and change some things a little.

Orders;
Broken into Night and Day orders, they can be sent in at different times to help you involve things you may have learned. They concern the following -

Day Orders;
Morning, Day X
You visit the Shop to buy, sell, or look around, then continue on to the Hall. If hiding you cannot do this for fear of being attacked.
Midday, Day X
You spend either hidden away or in the Hall. You can send in what to do incase you are lynched, or a specific person is lynched, or someone you may want to attack during the confusion of someone fighting for life. If you are hidden, you must stay in one place but can make any preparations you want there.

Night Orders;
Afternoon, Day X
Another visit to the Shop if you wish, to spend money you may have earned since then or buy things you now realize you'll need.
Night, Day X
Typical Castle I stuff, do whatever your strange little minds can think up, then wait while I try and handle it. ;p
In these orders you must specify if you are going to the Hall tomorrow or not. If not mentioned, it will be assumed you are.


You send Day orders in during the voting phase, and any change in equipment will be in effect by the time of lynching. Night orders are to be sent within 24hrs of the end of the voting phase. Tonight is an exception, and only Night orders are to be sent in.

OK, hopefuly that makes sense, although it demands more activity. If you don't want to have to send in two sets of orders, just lump it into one, but it will make it harder for you to react to events. Make sure PM's are titled appropriatly (ie; D1 Orders, N4 Orders).
Any questions don't hesitate to PM me.

[FactionHeir]

Within 24h of end of voting phase as in any time 24h-1sec before voting ends?

[Killfr3nzy]

Blurgh, I'm too tired to understand the question, but as I think I get the gist of it I'll rephrase the above.

Day Orders during the day phase, also called the voting phase. Said phase lasts roughly 24hrs.
Night Orders during the Night phase, which occurs directly after the day phase, and also last 24hrs, after which I can begin working out what happened.

[FactionHeir]

Ah ok.

[Ferret]

well Zorg I think you better give me some free stuff seeing as I'm teh big ol' bastard and you may have a little shockl tonight if you don't

[Beefy187]

And us royal servents will gladly obey your order... Especially if its something along the line of kill Zorg and take his weapons

[Killfr3nzy]

Phase ends in roughly two hours; W&F, I suggest you PM me with what you want to do if (when) **** hits the fan. Otherwise I'll have to improv you.

Vote Count;
Woad&Fangs - 3 (kamikhaan, FH, Cimmerian)
Faction Heir - 2 (shlin, W&F)
Myrddraal - 2 (Craterus, Seamus)
scottishranger - 1 (Andres)
Craterus - 1 (Tiberus)
pevergreen - 1 (Sarathos)
Sarathos - 1 (pever)
Amazing Me - 1 (Rythmic)

[Zorg]

I will take all queries about my services via pm. I am not here for free, and I am not without protection. Im sure those who are innocent don't want me handing out goods to unconfirmed townies, you may just be forcing me to give goods to the mafia. And I doubt cost is a huge issue for the owner of the treasury....

[Ferret]

No I only want you handing out goods to me and everyone knows I am not mafia...and cost is an issue for a tight 'bastard' like me.

[Beefy187]

Sir I suggest you make us guards fully armed with armours. Im sure good Mr Zorg is willing to be charitible to confirmed innocents.

[FactionHeir]

I doubt its possible to confirm innocents in Castle other than those revealed by the host at the start. Indeed, the merchant might have some hidden objectives too

Willing to pay for the goods as long as it helps ensuring the bastard survives.

[Killfr3nzy]

Woad & Fangs has been lynched.
Begin Night Phase.

[Killfr3nzy]

Deadline postponed by 12 hours due to inactivity by a third of the players, and the fact that I will get no writing done tonight.
At the same time as I close the phase tomorrow will be W&F's lynch write-up, then PM's will be sent out within roughly 12 hours - allowing for computer-jacks and tasks I may be forced to do.
Apologies for the delay.

[Craterus]

So, in approximately 1 hour 15 minutes, yeah?

[Killfr3nzy]

Triple-posting ftl, but here's the lynch for your entertainment while I carry out your insane plans. Night phase closed.

EDIT: YES, Craterus posted! No triple-post for me. I love you, Craterus. Also, I think I was late by an hour, but we'll just ignore that for now...

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

A verdict had been reached, and there was silence in the Hall as those inside stared at Woden. Most who knew him did not believe he could be anything other than what he seemed; he was a blunt, simple man, prone to speaking his mind without regard to the usual niceties. But their enemies could be anywhere – anyone – and while only half of those gathered had voted, the ‘majority’ spoken.
“Woden.”
The tall, rangy man continued to stare at the flagstones for a moment, jaw working.
“I’m sorry Woden, but it’s time.”
He looked up to the Bastard, seemingly contemplative as two Praetors moved slowly through the crowd towards him. He sighed.
“Yeah, I guess it is.”
In a flash, he’d snatched an arrow from his quiver and sent it streaking through the air, the shrill scream of it’s passing suddenly halted as it thunked into the oaken seat, sunk up to it’s fletching. Unblinking, Kodus regarded Woden sadly even as the arrow thrummed into stillness by his head. They both knew he could have fired a lot faster and with more accuracy if he’d wished.
Spitting through the gap in his teeth, Woden tossed his longbow to the ground, not looking as the Praetor’s drew their swords.
“Make it quick, ya bastards.”
Metal cut flesh, last breath expelled, and body hit stone. It had begun.

[Craterus]

Awwww. You're welcome KF. When are you posting the night actions? Just wondering if it would be worth staying up to read them.

I'm a bit confused about the write-up but it seems we got one of them early?

[pevergreen]

I dunno. Are we hunting demons again?

I think he was just an archer.

[woad&fangs]

I was a scout. Pro Bastard.

[Craterus]

So why take the shot? Drama?

[FactionHeir]

To prove that he wasn't a demon posessed? If he were, he prolly would have short a bit closer to them eyes.

[pevergreen]

3 hours left until Night 1 PM's come back. Do we send in our days orders, or wait?

[FactionHeir]

Send in day orders during the day.

[Beefy187]

Meanwhile lets all bow our head in shame for lynching loyal servent of the Bastard

RIP Woads unlucky

[shlin28]

12 hours since the night phase ended...
