That Creeping Darkness [Concluded]

[Joooray]

Alright, just to calm down CDF I unvote; vote:Sigurd.
Sigurds behaviour seems a bit scummy to me, indeed, though I doubt he would be making such a beginners mistake.

[Joooray]

You guys do realize that the day ended 23 minutes ago, right?

You and your deadlines.

You are not per chance Mr. Lovell's companion, considering your affection for law and order.

Sorry, but it was a plausible thought one of the things I remember from Dark Decent is that once you were converted you had to vote with Random org. This is a different game with different rules, but well.....

I would switch my vote, but the round is over.

[Captain Blackadder]

vote sig

Avoiding certain games reeks of scumminess.

[ULC]

Okay, sorry for this extremely long wait - tallying votes, and starting write up. To compensate, round will end at 9:00 PM EST so everyone is happy, and all votes will count this round

I need to get better at keeping a schedule....

[rhawn]

I think I just heard whisperings in the wind of someone calling me a Lame-O. It's too bad it is so late or else I'd switch my vote to defend my e-honor.

End Day 3...

(ugh, I need one more day to catch up >< - please look back here early tomorrow)

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

"How goes it Mr. Black? Have the townspeople come to a decision yet or not?" Lovell tapped upon a notepad impatiently with his fine tip pen, trying to think of what to write for a his speech next morning - one must always assure the masses that everything is going according to plan, otherwise they might panic.

Mr. Black shrugged as he looked out from his place on the balcony over looking the town square. "How do you think it goes? These fools bicker and fight or the most foolish of things. They fight over spelling, over pronunciation, over whether or not one of them is paying attention to their fool chatter." Throwing his arms out in despair, Mr, Black lamented. "Even now, instead of doing the task appointed to them, they bicker over whether your message is about 'Chaos', or 'Order'."

Doctor Lovell looked up and pulled his reading glasses down. "My message? How could it be confused for anything but what it is?!" Paying the doctor no mind, Mr. Black walked inside, and grabbed his coat, making ready to leave. "Where do you think your going?", Lovell inquired. Giving him a dour look, Mr. Black countered. "Whether it is chaos and confusion, be it law and order - I don't much care. I am going to go look for that perpetually late tally counter so this day can end!" Donning his fedora, Mr. Black stormed out of the room.

Sighing, Lovell went back to finishing his speech, and an hour later was about to finish when a knock came at his door. Opening the door, Lovell was shocked to find a young woman with piercing eyes before him. "Forgive me, but I thought the great Doctor Lovell would like to know that the tally counter has arrived, and the votes are finally being cast - will you be attending as usual?"

Doctor Lovell, recovering from his shock, made to ask how she had managed to get passed his guards, but decided it against it and simply took the woman's hand, who lead him out to the steps. There stood the crowd, waiting in anticipation for the execution.

Shaking himself out of his stupor, Lovell quickly checked around him for the woman, but could find no trace of her. Sensing that all eyes were on him, Lovell cleared his throat and turned to the mob. "Whom do you accuse?"

A few strong voices from the crowd yelled back. "Sigurd Sigurdsson! He does not help! Day in day out he has avoided coming to the meetings, all the while setting himself to other tasks! Why would he avoid searching for the psychics, if he isn't one himself! He is in league with them, he is in league with the psychics!" The crowd began to chant, and what started as a simple accusation by a few, had turned a torrent as other began piling on accusations, and suddenly Sigurd found himself being dragged by the crowd to the front of the steps, kneeling before Doctor Lovell.

Looking down at Sigurd but speaking to the tally counter, Lovell let passion enter his voice as it rose in volume. "How do the votes lie!" Responding quickly, the tally counter shouted back. "Sigurd is to be lynched!" With a snap of his fingers, Lovell's assistant Gasmask appeared, and the crowd shrank back and quieted.

"How do you plead Sigurd, son of Sigurd?" Looking back with a defiant face, Sigurd spoke with an air of finality. "I accept the verdict of this mockery of a trial...and go to a place the woman told me of, where I will be safe from you and may work to save the poor people of this town from your grip." Looking at Gasmask, Sigurd smiled. "Your time will be soon, silent one..."

Gasmask stepped forward, and grabbing Sigurd's head, jerked it sharply. A wet crack echoed off the steps of the town hall, as Sigurd fell lifelessly upon the stone steps, a smile upon his face. As the crowd dispersed, Lovell made his way back up to his study, where he found that his entire room had been covered in the phrase "I know" in scrawling handwriting, a thousand times over.

[Askthepizzaguy]

YES! I MADE IT THROUGH ANOTHER ROUND! MWAHAHAHAHAHAA

Now, to exact revenge on everyone who was foolish enough to vote for me.... *rubs hands evilly*

[Beefy187]

So did I

I will haunt your dreams!

[Diamondeye]

I love this smiley

Oh and look at how cunning my manipulation of the votes to get Sigurd to hang was. That's what he gets for adding flowers when moderating my posts

j/k... This game is really awesome, glad your internet's back up YLC.

[ULC]

Ugh, I am extremely disappointed at the number of night orders I have obtained - I am extending this night for 24 hours. Please get those orders in people!

[Centurion1]

good game so far ylc happy you got your connection back

[Andres]

No more posts?

Does this mean you guys surrender?

Hand me over Psychic 0 and I'll be merciful. No more Chaos, but law and Order!

I am waiting for the day phase personally. with the org all funky I think it is safe to assume there is an indefinite extension.

[pevergreen]

Org seems to be back up. Give it to just after christmas? (Mid boxing day hosts time?)

THANK GOD! Finally able to get in!

Game will resume after Christmas, for everyone's convenience. I hope you will all return and be active

[Renata]

You could throw us a bone and put up the morning post, maybe, and just have a longer-than-usual voting phase? *hopeful look* We've been pining away for days here. :(

[A1_Unit]

Well I'm here and active if that helps...

[Sprig]

I agree :)

[Sevis]

I happen to still check this at least once a day, in addition to just about every time I happen to have five minutes free. Would love a morning post - after all, I cannot hope to scheme in the dark...

[Andres]

Surrender or this night will last forever!

Muha!

Muhahaha!

Muhahahahahahahaha!

Alright, alright, alright - give me a few hours, I'll have the day up and get caught up on my clues. Already the holidays are making me fat and complacent

[Andres]

Merry Christmas to all of you!

[Diamondeye]

You too, Andres. And what's teh status on teh update, YLC? Your last post is more than a day old?

[Cultured Drizzt fan]

I think considering its Cristmas we can let YLC off

[Diamondeye]

Nice try

J/K, YLC. We're patient, unlike the tyrant Dr. Lovell.

Okay, update - finally getting to work on the update

I was kidnapped by my family for Christmas Eve and Christmas - managed to con my way back so I won't have to endure another 2 days of relatives-I-don't-know-but-apparently-know-me.

If I get smashed on New Years....I might feel better and talk more to my own relatives...."I remember when you were this small you wet the bed...Etc."

I simply ran off when they wanted to do Karaoke....

Still feels rude to competely ignore them, you know...
