First of all lets stop posting guards outside the camp by themselves in the dark in the middle of the mountain!

I will still have to vote: Rhyhelwyr. CA put him on the short list of people 2 rounds ago that didn't submit their score. Rhy claimed he did in fact submit his score, but CA never confirmed that. Suspicion doesn't get wiped off just because you survived a round.

Strong FOS GeneralHandkerchief right behind him though for the duel results.

For the record: on Night 2, Glenn also did not bow to the Master after the duel Post 481, n2 writeup.

The duel was over.

Shingen nodded respectfully to Fujimoto.

"Now that this has been settled, we'll go through the proceedings again."
All the other duel write-ups have the victor bowing to Shingen.

It would be explained if Husar was the person who protected Sasaki.

Well can swordmasters protect someone other than Shingen?

Good observations. I agree with Stephen - this is getting on my nerves too.

Interesting observations.

I think part of the reason the protector did not protect might have been that Husar seemed to have a survival chance and mafia normally don't attack the same target twice in a row.... They could have gone for Sasaki again afterall.

Re GH, I hadn't noticed that and it certainly seems incriminating with his general lack of posting. Though it could be related to the "hatred" mentioned in the writeup, he seems a good a lynch as any other (like Tristan or Rhyfelwyr) at the moment.

The way I see it someone attacked me and the next night the ninjas decided to finish me off just for the sake of finishing me off.

Or maybe they just hate me or thought I could still be useful for whoever despite the fact that my injury would have lasted for the rest of the game anyway.

Im guessing with husar they saw he was weakened and figured they best finish him off incase he can recover, that combined with the fact he seemed to have a somewhat important role probably is the reason they chose him...

That is intresting that neither Glenn nor GH bowed, surely a traitor or ninja would be doubly sure to show respect... or perhaps a slight clue... something to keep in mind...

Yes, but perhaps it is not the General who had no honor. The man Glenn killed was named Watanabe. Though we have seen another wannabe die in the night, behold this letter:

You must take action, before it's too late! My son is unaware about your true loyalty.

Bring me the head of the usurper, Takeda Shingen! Once he has been taken care of, I will take control over the Takeda clan and I will appoint the misguided Nobushige as my heir!

Keigu,


武田信虎.
And here is the write up which contains two of the same name as the letter:

Watanabe Yumi (Olavi) entered his room. He was tired and in dire need of some sleep. He quickly undressed himself, placed his katana and his wakizashi in a corner of the room and went to bed.

As soon as his head touched the cushion, he slept.

He didn’t notice the figure entering his room. Two strong, dark gloved hands grabbed Watanabe’s throat and broke his larynx. The knife piercing through his right eye, into his brains ended the job very quick.

The dark shade left the room unnoticed.

~~~
Day 2 - Bloodshed.

Hour of the Rabbit

The previous night had been very pleasant for Takeda Shingen. While he was eating his breakfeast, he was enjoying the beautiful scenery.

He heard some noises on the courtyard and decided to take a look.

The Tiger came outside and walked to his platform. He looked at the four woodpiles and noticed the 4 sheets covering what seemed to be dead bodies. The Tiger sighed.

"It seems like this isn't over yet." He paused for a while and then picked up a scroll one of the samurai had put next to him. He took a careful look and then watched Fujimoto Yunishiro (Glenn) and Watanabe Yunishiro (Northnovas).

"Let the Yunishiro nephews begin," Takeda said, softly.


One of the samurai officers bowed to both men.

"No armor, no hidden weapons, just katana and wakizashi."

Both samurai nodded and took their places.

Fujimoto quickly unsheeted his katana and stormed forwards. The younger Watanabe didn't expect this ferocious attack, but his quick reflexes saved him from what would have been a fatal blow.

Fujimoto however was out of balance now and Watanabe managed to take a stab at him. He ruined Fujimoto's kimono but, surprisingly, didn't hurt his opponent.

Fujimoto made a move to the left and then suddenly swung his katana to Watanabe's left side. He deflected the blow with his katana and came in with an incredibly quick riposte. Fujimoto parried but lost his katana in the proces.

Watanabe grinned. Without his katana, his opponent was at a huge disadvantage. He stormed forwards, but in his enthusiasm, he stumbled. Fujimoto drew his wakizashi and burried it into Watanabe's leg. The younger samurai groaned. Fujimoto tried to kick his opponent in the stomach, but Watanabe managed to roll away, but without his katana. Fujimoto quickly jumped upon Watanabe and both men struggled for a while, both giving blows and kicks. Then the wrestling stopped. Fujimoto stood up, and he saw Watanabe bleeding to dead, looking at his own wakizashi that somehow got planted in his chest. Fujimoto picked up his katana and quickly decapacitated his opponent.

The duel was over.

Shingen nodded respectfully to Fujimoto.

"Now that this has been settled, we'll go through the proceedings again."

~~~
The first Watanabe is a victim of who is likely a traitor, the second however died in battle. Perhaps this man was one of the traitors. But then, I do not know that the General was wise to force dishonor on his opponent. Perhaps both me had drives that stand outside of those of this house.

Whuh-oh, this looks like two games in a row where Andres's write-up puts me in trouble. I have no defense, all I can say is that CA knows my rating, probably knows Beefy's, and can make his own decision on the matter.

Why do you challenge me? What reason do you have for the challenge? I am innocent as I've told you guys several times, so I do not see what purpose my death would serve except thin out our ranks. I was in the belief that you were protected that night due to the fact that you were the real Shingen, while Count Arach was merely a kagemusha, but now you've pretty much shattered that theory with your challenge. I do not think that you were protected by the action of a pro-townie killblocker, so that leaves one option for me. I believe you're the ninja master, immune to night kills as long as your lackies are still around and it was one of them that protected you.

That's an interesting theory, but would that not have resulted in one less kill that night ?

I'd say this is as good a 'case' as any and definately the best we have this round, and further more I fail to see how the ratings would help your case - GH ?

For now, Vote:GeneralHankerchief

Aggony, CountArach confirmed that the protection on Sasaki was a pro-town action in this post...
Not saying it absolves Sasaki of suspicion though....

Aaaah, I forgot about that. Anyway my vote stays the same, as this is the second time Sasaki challenges me and that seriously needs to stop. He knows my battle rating and how I reacted to his last challenge, so why does he challenge me again? It makes no sense.

AggonyDuck 17:39 05-01-2009
By the way CA, why wasn't Husar protected last night? It was obvious that he was going to be a target, so why did our protector waste an opportunity to deny a kill for the ninjas?

The only thing I know is that Sasaki wants me dead for some strange reason. The rest is just crazy theories that don't really work. That said having a kagemusha for Shingen would had been a rather cool and unique twist for the game.

He is not a traitor because the name does not fit. A Ninja will of course bow to Takeda Shingen. I don't think he shall die this day. I do not think he shall be executed this day.

Perhaps we need to contemplate the fact that we might not have any protectors left, both the Geishas were killed off early on, so that would explain why nobody protected Husar. However this could contradict how Sasaki was protected, maybe the protector was killed between when Sasaki was attacked and when Husar was badly injured? Right now we only have CA's words that Sasaki was defended by a protown power, and I sure hope he's got this one right.

CA, is the protector still alive at this point?

As regarding to GH, I think the clue left by Andres would be too obvious for town to find, maybe GH is just a naturally angry samurai. Andres inprovised when the Pevers were killed, and he might of done this one because GH and Beefy had been challenging each other for days with this fight when they were finally met - "They looked at each other and the attentive observant would see that these two men held no love for each other. Indeed, they had been at each other’s throats for days now, throwing challenge after challenge at each other and everybody knew Lord Takeda had made a wise decision by letting them battling it out." As I think there's no way that a ninja would do this to lose his identity, so GH is either a traitor who does not acknowledge Shingen as his lord, or just a rather grumpy samurai, and I think its the latter.
