- Day 1:
- Having agreed to participate in a little reddit game, you await your instructions. You've heard nothing for quite some time and so it drifts from your mind, until one morning you notice a pink envelope sitting on your doorstep. Picking it up, you detect a slight scent of lavender, then nothing. Darkness.
- You awake with a splitting headache and a tightness around your neck. Through blurry eyes you make out a sparsely decorated room, little more than a closet with a mattress.
- A burst of static momentarily stuns you before lowering to a comfortable volume, "*ahem,* is this thing on?" The voice seems to come from a small speaker set into the top corner of the wall. "Well, hopefully you can hear me or else you'll be really screwed. Welcome Checklad, to my little house of fun! You may notice something around your neck? Well I wouldn't play with that if I were you, it's rigged to explode in 6 days kuhihihihi. If you'd like to keep your head attached to your shoulders, then I have a little task for you. Don't worry, it'll be fun, or at least it will be for me. In your pocket is a little slip of paper that tells you what I want you need to do, don't disappoint me now!"
- A quick check of your left side pocket reveals a note with a short message scrawled in green crayon, "Murderer: you must kill at least 2 players"
- Checking your other pockets, you find 4 small gold coloured tokens, a stout stick, and some x-ray goggles.
- Still dazed from this odd situation, you hear a click, and the door opens, revealing a larger room. It's reminds you of a hotel lobby that's seen better days. You step through the door.
- You are currently unharmed, with a default combat rating of 3.
- You are currently carrying:
- 4 tokens: the player who has completed their secret objective and has the most of these wins the game.
- X-ray goggles: you can see what one player is carrying
- Wooden stick: +1 combat rating (can be used in 2 fights)

- Falafel:
- So it looks like Bobemmo is after both our heads. I'm not really one for violence, but at the very least we should have each other's backs in case she starts roping others into that craziness of hers.
- What do you say, friend?
- Checklad:
- A-a-a-alright, ok! J-just, how do you k-k-know?
- Falafel:
- Mmm? Know what?
- Checklad:
- I-I-If he actually means what he s-s-s-says, why am I saying that? He's so s-s-s-scary~
- Falafel:
- He's just totally lost it. I've got no idea what he wants from us, but so long as we've got each other's backs we don't have to worry too much.
- Just watch your back around him and try to see what he's up to so we don't get ambushed or anything.
- Subject: A-a-a-alliance?
- Checklad:
- C-could you help protect me from Bobemmo, he's so scary! I-I-I can give you one of these things I found in my pocket (token) and I'll help you too!
- Insanity:
- Yes, let's do that. Me and some others (not Bobemmo, at least that I know of) are going to the Servant's Quarters. Would you like to come with us?
- I'll gladly take the token in exchange for an alliance between us.
- Checklad:
- I-I-I'll think about it, but p-people scare m-me. I'll do my b-b-best!
- I-It's good to have a f-f-fr-friend..
- Insanity:
- Alright! You can let me know what you decide, if you want (: But know that you're my ally, so if anything should happen I will fight for you!
- Subject: H-h-help?
- Checklad:
- Y-you were so kind to me, c-c-c-c-could you protect me from the scary man named Bobemmo? I-I-I'll help you as well! L-Like an alliance! I-I have nothing of value right now, b-b-b-but if I find something today I'll give it to you!

- Aspiration:
- Sorry kid, it's a bit too late for that right now. Our 'organizer' has made sure that everyone's safe enough, at least for tonight, so I'll see you tomorrow. I'm off to find some booze. Nobody can have a whole house without a little happy juice.
- Subject: The_Dvls_Advocate house of fun
- Checklad:
- Time to ask you some questions.
- Is it possible to find things in the main room?
- Is it possible to hide all tokens?
- Advocate:
- Well you can spend your day trying, I can't guarantee much success.
- You can leave all your tokens locked away in the common area so that they can't be taken from you if you lose a fight, but then your tokens are vulnerable to anyone with a lockpick that stays behind
- Checklad:
- I would like to not use my wooden stick should I be attacked/attack today, and consider insanityissexy, falafel_eater and aspiration my allies. Bobemmo is an enemy, but I refuse to attack if given the chance today and he doesn't attack me.
- Advocate:
- Ooo, lots of alliances forming behind the scenes. Even to go so far as to giving insanity a token?
- This is going to be a fun day.
- Checklad:
- should I be worried?
- Advocate:
- Why would you be worried? Do you think my idea of fun is something to be scared of? Muahahaha.
- You stash a couple of tokens in the closet like room you awoke in, then lock the door. You hope they'll be safe there.
- With a loud clang, the door that provides access to the rest of the mansion swings open. You exchange glances with the other players, and after a few moments of hesitation, you see insanityissexy and falafel_eater take the lead. Just as he reaches the threshold a loud burst of static announces the return of your captor, "stop" you hear the metalic voice shriek. "One of you has not been listening to me!" A scream erupts from behind you, you turn around to see Lishy convulsing on the floor, frantically grasping at his collar. "I told you to publicly introduce yourselves, I can't stand rude guests. Let this serve as a lesson to you all." With that, the speaker shuts off and Lishy's shudders come to a stop. With unsteady limbs, he rises to his feet, he's clearly hurt but not severely so. Not wanting to be associated with the troublemaker, you turn around and head through the doorway.
- Once your eyes adjust to the low lighting, you see that you've been lead into a rather grimy corridor that splits into several routes. Fortunately there are signs, 3 of which are lit by a flickering bulb. "Pantry," "Kitchen," and "Servant Quarters" are written on them.
- You head on down the corridor marked "Pantry," eventually coming upon a door that's slightly ajar. Someone else has gotten here first. You open the door and are confronted with an incredible stack of boxed crackers and cheese wheels. What kind of food selection is this? Before you can start examining the stacks for anything useful, Bobemmo step out of the shadows and growl, "back off, this room is mine." You aren't going to let him have this room to himself, so you stand your ground. He leaps at you and you both fall to the floor, rolling into a rack of wine bottles. He gets to his feet first, at which point aspiration comes into the room and rushes to your aid. Bobemmo grins, grabs a wine bottle and holds it with a menacing gleam in his eyes. You stand alongside aspiration, but neither of you are eager to take the fight further, so you maintain a stalemate until ctom steps in. Before ctom can fully grasp the situation, Bobemmo throws a bottle at him, narrowly missing him as he dives to the floor. He moves forward to finish ctom off but aspiration steps blocks his path. Realising how outnumbered he is, he curses and backs down, returning to a search for items in his end of the room.
- After thanking aspiration for his help, you begin ripping cheese wheels apart. After a few hours you've found a measly token and a stout stick that should serve as a club if Bobemmo tries something again.
- Before heading back to the common room you make sure to eat your fill of crackers and cheese. At least you won't go to bed hungry tonight.
- You are currently unharmed, with a default combat rating of 3.
- You are currently carrying:
- 4 tokens: the player who has completed their secret objective and has the most of these wins the game.
- 2x Wooden stick: +1 combat rating (can be used in 2 fights)
- X-ray goggles: you can see what one player is carrying
- Day 2:
- Subject: The_Dvls_Advocate House of Fun, Day 2
- FinalNwo:
- Hey, psst, come over here.
- Thanks again for your help. I didn't want anyone to know, but I'd like to have an alliance with you for the time being. Since Bobemmo is a really dangerous fellow, you should watch out. I don't think you can defend yourself when the time comes, so I offer you my assistance in this matter. By the way, I have a weapon and can fight at full power, now that I have eaten. So, what do you think?
- Checklad:
- O-Ok, I-I'm weak that g-g-g-g-glad for any help I can have.
- Y-You actually have a weapon, w-w-wow wow! All I get ar-are these yellow thingies (tokens)...
- FinalNwo:
- Hm, this is interesting. I don't know what these things are, but look out for them. They might actually be the most important thing here... Don't let anyone have them, not even show them to anyone! Not even me, understand?
- Checklad:
- o-o-oh, but I-I already lost o-o-one!
- FinalNwo:
- Do you know to whom? If I get the chance, I might get it back for you.
- Checklad:
- I-I-I don't kn-know, it-it's not like a thief le-lea-leaves a letter be-behind say-saying: 'I'm taking one of your thing-thing-thingies, thanks, sign-signed, yours truly'. B-But I did see Cornetto_Man st-st-staring at me a-afa-after I we-went ba-back in my roo-room!
- FinalNwo:
- I see, I'm gonna have an eye out for him. Thanks for the information.
- Checklad:
- N-no pr-problem. A-a-all I want is to li-live!
- FinalNwo:
- We'll get you outta here, don't worry. Like I said once, maybe there can be more than just one survivor.
- Checklad:
- t-t-thank you
- Subject: Going Hunting:
- Falafel:
- Aspiration and I are going to the cloakroom tonight. You should come with us for safety.
- Subject: Info
- Aspiration:
- I don't trust you, but I helped you out. At least tell me where Falafel wanted you to go. If I'm satisfied with the answer, I'll return the favor with some info of my own. Fair?
- Checklad:
- S-ser-servants quarters..
- D-D-D-don't tell me he-he's a bad guy! I-I-I'm scared, ca-ca-can't you help me, I-I do-d-don't wanna d-d-d-d--d-d-d-d-d-d-d-die!
- Aspiration:
- He's not out to get you as far as I know. I haven't figured out my plans yet.
- Subject: Tonight
- Insanity:
- Hey there. Are you hanging in there?
- So are you joining me, falafel_eater, and possibly some others tonight? That's great! We'll do our best to protect you from anything that might happen. We won't let anything like last night happen again.
- Could you do the same for us? I know you might think that you won't be able to do much if something, but everyone can be useful, including you.
- Checklad:
- N-not really no, I-I'm the exact op-op-op-opo-op-opposite of hanging in there.
- Of-ofcourse I'd love to join yo-you guys! You-You guys are fr-fr-fr-friends, I don't wanna be a-alone....
- Insanity:
- Try to calm down a little bit and think about stuff you like. What do you like?
- We'll let you know where to go as soon as we decided, okay? You'll be fine.
- Insanity:
- By the way; I'm sure it's hard for you to trust anybody in a place like this, but let me ask you about your objective. You need to get your collar off to survive this place, after all.
- Is your objective something we could help you with? We'd be glad to do so. I won't tell anyone about your objective, even if it's something terrible. And if your objective needs you to hurt people, we could work together to find a different way to get your collar off without hurting anyone. Really.
- You don't need to tell me anything, of course, but I'd like for as many people as possible to survive this place.
- Checklad:
- N-no I tru-trust you. My objective is-is quite odd. I-it simply states: 'survive & try to get 8 to-tokens. This isn't so bad, bu-but several people have already announced their in-intention to kill me. Th-the announcer said that so-somebody has the ob-objective to kill me specifically! Sc-scary!
- Insanity:
- Huh, okay. Then you probably shoudln't have given that token to me... Did you give any tokens to anyone else?
- Well, at least me and falafel will try our hardest to protect you!
- A-A-All-Alliance?
- Checklad:
- H-Hello, we didn't talk much, but c-could we like wa-watch each other's backs? I-I'm weak a-and don't have an-any-any weap-weapons (sadness), I d-do have a lot of these yellow thingies (tokens) and I-I'm willing to give you one if you ag-agree that we loo-look out for o-ne another...
- Cornetto:
- "Very well, in exchange for one token, I will count you among my allies in the next round. I believe that surviving is priority number one here. Something others appear to have forgotten."
- Checklad:
- "Th-thank you, wa-wait: what do-do you me-me-me-me-me-me-me-me-mean in the next round? Do-do you mean 'for now', 'not today b-but tomorrow and onwards', 'on-only the 'event'' or so-so-someth-thing different enti-enti-entirely?
- permalinkfull comments
- Cornetto:
- "It means exactly what it says. I will ally with you for now. How long the alliance lasts depends. This game is constantly changing and so am I. Don't worry though. If all goes well we'll stay allies for a long time. Well then, I'll see you in there."
- Subject: Day 2
- FinalNwo:
- Boy, have you heard of the incident in the servant quarters? There was someone with a mask, who seems to be allied with Snsanity, since he ignored her. Better watch out with her.
- I think it's ctom42, but I'm not sure about that. I will investigate this matter. Take care.
- Checklad:
- s-s-s-som-somebody with a mask?
- Pe-people can wear masks?
- So-sorry I-I ca-can't help you with tha-that, pleas-please keep me-me up to date
- FinalNwo:
- Well, of course. Apparently everyone of us received a different item at the beginning. Someone might as well have a mask to disguise himself. However, it's easy to avoid him/her. You just have to be in a group, he will leave you alone, then.
- Subject: Talk
- Advocate:
- I was so tempted to tell insanity "don't trust him, he's a murderer" when you gave her the token. Hopefully you live long enough!
- Checklad:
- Let's just say I'm pretty much in the middle of everyone here: trying to pull strings here and there.
- You didn't hear anything~
- Checklad:
- I wish to go the laundry room
- I wish to not use my weapons today, and refuse to attack my enemies first.
- Allies: Finalnwo, insanityissexy, falafel_eater, Cornetto_Man aspiration, ctom24. Enemies: Bobemmo
- I give Cornetto_man a token.
- Advocate:
- There are a few mighty alliances forming, getting someone isolated enough to kill them could be tough. There are a few items floating around that may prove useful in breaking up the alliance ... muahaha
- Checklad:
- ooooh there's more people doing the mass-alliance thing that I'm doing? Interesting~
- Also, what about the one guy who's hiding in his room? Shouldn't be time for some, measures?
- Advocate:
- You mean Lishy1? The electrocution from his collar seems to have induced a coma, we'll see if he wakes up in time to head out to a room or whether he'll just lie there, dying.
- After such an eventful day, you eagerly head to your room and sigh in relief at hearing the click of the lock as you seal yourself in. With not much entertainment available, you attempt to sleep.
- You walk into the common area and rejoin the other players in the common area. You notice that one player is missing, Lishy1. You head on over to his room with a few other players. Unexpectedly, your first knock pushes the door open. He didn't lock it? You cautiously step inside and see Lishy1 lying comatose. You cautiously move forward and check his breathing, it's present but weak. Did the electrocution from his collar yesterday cause more harm than anyone realised? Or perhaps ... someone did something to the food he ate? You can't help but notice the gleam of a token in his fist, but the other players are all present, you can't "investigate" further without causing a disturbance. Agreeing to let him rest, you and your fellow players step back into the common area just as the large mechanical door controlling access to the rest of the mansion swings open with a clang. Another day of "fun" beckons.
- Stepping through the doorway reveals the same grimy corridor as yesterday, but there's a small difference, a different set of signs have been lit up, "Garbage disposal," "Cloakroom," and "Laundry room." You head on down the corridor marked "Garbage disposal".
- You initially head towards the cloakroom, remembering something about meeting falafel_eater there, but your night blindness kicks in as the corridor becomes darker. Soon you lose track of the signs, wandering down corridors at random. Eventually you come upon an open door with light streaming out. You step inside, momentarily blind from the strong lights. "Is this the cloakroom" you ask aloud.
- "No!" comes an angry response, "this room is mine." Your eyes adjust to the light just in time to see Bobemmo lunging for you, but this time you won't be so unprepared! You try to pull out your two sticks and give a scream, but Bobemmo's speed and ferocity gives him the edge. He tackles you to the ground where you can't swing at him.
- At this moment Cornetto_Man steps into the room, he grabs hold of Bobemmo and pulls him off you. "Leave him be" he yells.
- You get to your feet, facing Bobemmo, he's ready to back down but now you're angry. This fight isn't over until you say it is. You go after him, swinging both clubs and he goes down under a flurry of blows. You inflict serious wounds on him before sanity returns and you step back, panting heavily.
- "You may search your section of the room, we just want our fair share" you mumble. With that, you turn and appraise the room. You see a series of rusted relics and washing baskets coated in mould. This room does not look promising, but you'll give it a try. You open up the drum of the first machine and find a token sitting there. Maybe this room isn't so bad after all? You try a second machine and find a second token. You look around you, seeing another 7 machines. Your take a third token from the third machine, letting Cornetto_Man take the other 3 and leaving 1 remaining machine for Bobemmo.
- With a satisfied smile on your face, you head back to the common room with Cornetto_Man, leaving Bobemmo on the floor.
- You are currently (relatively) unharmed, with a default combat rating of 3.
- You are currently carrying:
- 6 tokens: the player who has completed their secret objective and has the most of these wins the game.
- Wooden stick: +1 combat rating (can be used in 2 fights)
- Wooden stick: +1 combat rating. Cracked, it will only survive one more fight.
- X-ray goggles: you can see what one player is carrying
- Day 3:
- Subject: going hunting.
- Checklad:
- I-I got lost again...
- I-I-I'm useless.
- Falafel:
- That doesn't matter. The important thing is that you are safe.
- Tell me exactly what you saw.
- Checklad:
- End-ended up with Bobemmo again... He lunged a-at me, I-I de-defended myself and he end-ended up gett-getting hurt mo-more than I di-did! A-Atleast h-h-h-h-he can't ki-ki-ki-ki-kill u-us anymore...
- Falafel:
- Calm down, take a breath, and tell me more.
- Who was in the room with you, and what did you find? What did you see others find?
- Checklad:
- No-Nobody else wa-was in the ro-room that I-I know off.. I-it was dark th-though...
- A-After I left Bobemmo to hi-his own de-de-de-dedede-devices I che-checked the laundry machines and only found to-to-tokens: like a rid-ri-rid-ri-rid-ridiculously amount of th-them..
- Falafel:
- How many tokens? Did you find anything else?
- Did Bobemmo also find tokens?
- Checklad:
- I-I l-left be-before h-he wo-woke up o-or did an-anything aga-again...
- Pr-pretty sure I-I too-took mo-most i-if not a-all, may-maybe I miss-missed o-one? B-But I to-took mo-most tha-that's for cer-certain, a-about fo-four to-tokens: me-meaning I ha-have fulfilled pa-part of my mi-mission!
- Wh-What di-did you fi-find?
- Falafel:
- Your mission was to find eight tokens? That seems highly unusual. Maybe you meant to say it was something else? Alliances must be based on trust, you know.
- Checklad:
- fi-find ei-eight to-tokens a-and su-survive...
- Wh-Why is that hi-highly un-unusual? I-I've ye-yet to fi-find any we-weapons and I-I'm weak and wo-wounded, i-it wo-won't be ea-easy to su-survive be-being easy p-pickings...
- Falafel:
- It is unusual because the notes I found appear to be a full list of everybody's objectives. Not only is your own objective not in that list, but everyone is instructed to gather as many tokens as they can, and nobody can win if they do not survive.
- So tell me the truth. I have a list to match what you say against, so I will know if you lie. It's fine if your objective is something violent or even murderous. Don't disappoint me; I really do want this alliance to work out happily.

- Tell me everything so we can work this out.
- Checklad:
- Th-there's no-nothing else le-left an-anymore..
- Falafel:
- Okay then. Tell me, how would you like to change your objective?
- Give me your current one and I can give you something more suitable. This murder objective seems a little hard for you.
- Oh, by the way... what items did you say you had, exactly?
- Checklad:
- Tha-that's impossible! Th-the rules!
- Only tokens, a bro-broken stick (I-I b-beat up Bobemmo with i-it) and I used to ha-have a lockpick, b-but I us-used it.
- Falafel:
- I didn't see no rule that says you can't switch. There's an objective that has you as a detective. All you have to do is guess six people's objectives out of a list, and that's it.
- I can even tell you mine and Insanity could tell you hers, so that's halfway there without killing anyone. Isn't that better? You're no killer.
- Subject: Tonight
- Insanity:
- Good for you!
- I'd like to keep my options open for now, so I don't know where I'm going yet. I think there's lots of people wanting to go to the armory, so it might not be the safest place.
- If you don't mind, I'd like to keep my objective secret for a bit longer. But it is a non-violent one.
- " "A-ar-are you a-as u-unlucky a-as-as me to en-end up in ba-bad situations? I've en-ended up fa-facing Bobemmo tw-twice! N-Not re-really su-suspicious be-be-be-behaviour, ju-just ba-bad pl-place at ba-bad ti-time.." Still wondering why I ended up in the same room as Bobemmo twice.... "

- Insanity:
- ...Are you sure you told me the truth about your objective? I have fairly big list of objectives, but yours isn't on it. I won't get mad if you didn't tell the truth, but I'd really like to know. Even if you lied, I could still help you. There are some objectives that require you to sort of deceive others, do you have one like that?
- Checklad:
- A-aren't we all decieving on-one another?

- "Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I'm also glad you weren't hurt yesterday. Luckily I got there in time. I'd hate to see an ally hurt because of my inaction.
- As for that note. That's up to you. If you feel like finding out then you can pay. I don't plan on paying as I know for a fact part of that information is incorrect. Again thank you for your concern though."
- Checklad:
- Who-Whoa! H-How d-do-do you know that part of it is in-incorrect? I-I'm legimitately confused, no seriously.

- Cornetto:
- Hehehe, information is gold in here and at the moment I'm feeling pretty wealthy.
- In any case I hope we can extend our alliance for awhile longer. The armory seems like the logical place to go next round but I have a feeling that not everyone who enters that room will make it out alive.

- FinalNwo:
- Sure thing, where does she want to go?
- Checklad:
- S-She likes to ke-keep h-her op-options o-open...
- FinalNwo:
- I see, I see. No plans like before, huh? She is more cautious now that I can kill her, hehe. Anyways, don't worry, if you find out where she's going, just go somewhere else. I already have something to take care of today.
- Checklad:
- ye-yeah, but I-I do-don't know where y-y'know? D-Danger i-is e-everywhere...
- FinalNwo:
- That's why I said, you should wait until you know where she's going. If you're that scared to go anywhere, you can stay in the common room. I'll try to get you something, then.
- Checklad:
- No-no! I'll go, I have to k-keep ga-gathering in-information too!
- I c-can find out wh-what so-somebody has on the-them once, wh-who w-would you like me to u-use it o-on.
- FinalNwo:
- Oh? That's cool, I have the same thing. No need to waste it for me. You can just use it when you want it.
- Subject: Your act is slipping
- Falafel:
- You've been telling other people around this so-called objective of yours, aren't you? But nobody is buying it and they think you plan to kill them.
- Honestly, I think you're in much worse shape than you realize. Nobody trusts you. I have no interest in harming you, but if I am going to keep extending my protection to you, it's going to have to be worth my effort.
- I'm taking a big risk for you now. Bigger than you realize.
- Checklad:
- I-I h-have no pl-plan, th-there w-was ne-never a pl-plan to be-begin with! Who s-said I can trust y-you no-now?! I-I kn-know you ha-have a str-strong a-alliance with o-other pe-people, and I kn-know tha-that you do-don't ca-care a-about me, y-you only use me for i-information! ... I-I-I'm a-alone...
- Alone...
- Falafel:
- I have a strong alliance, and you've been included in it from the very start. But you lied and you never came with us.
- Now, it's understandable you'd be scared and so something like that so it's not the end of the world. However, for the sake of fairness, you should make amends to me for having to shoulder all this risk after you made such a mess.
- This is not unreasonable. You have plenty of tokens to spare.
- If you let your fear blind you, you really will be alone.
- Either way, I have no intention of hurting you regardless of whether you join back into the alliance or not. You can still consider me your ally even if you do nothing. All this affects is how far I'll be willing to protect you from the others.
- Think carefully on this.
- Subject: Bobemmo
- Ctom:
- I have heard of your heroic victory over Bobemmo last night. As someone who wishes to see him gone, I congratulation you, and extend an offer of cooperation to eliminate him once and for all.
- If I am not mistake Cornetto assisted you in this endeavor. I have also reached out to him about this matter, and I hope to hear favorable responses from both of you.
- Checklad:
- Her-heroic any-anything but, I-I th-thought I was go-go-go-gogo-gonna die... Cornetto_Man kinda is, I think? B-But I don't ta-talk tha-that much with him...
- Bo-bemmo seems da-dangerous still, but ki-kill? I-I'm not so su-sure...
- Ctom:
- He's attacked you twice already, and now if he succeeds he can kill you. I'm not sure you have much choice, if you want to survive that is.
- Checklad:
- I-I know. B-But it-it's a sc-scary thought, wi-will yo-you he-help me?
- Ctom:
- I've made it no secret that I will make Bobemmo pay. You can count on my support.
- Checklad:
- C-Could yo-you b-be ho-honest wi-with me? I-I've got a mass-massive se-secret a-and I-I'm not su-sure what to do!
- A-Are yo-you all-allied with falafel_eater or a-aspiration?
- Ctom:
- I'm not currently allied with either of them, but Aspiration has been trying hard to win me over. Of course if you can give me a good reason not to trust him I am listening
- Checklad:
- N-not so mu-much a reason no-not to tru-trust him, as much as a warning th-that he's allied wi-with falafel_eater, insanityissexy and possibly cornetto_man in a massive quadruple (or triple) alliance...
- Cornetto_man is the odd man out I th-think, the other three are constantly fishing me for in-information a-about everything.
- Ctom:
- I've managed to fish up some information on Bobemmo. He is heading to the armory since he is wounded and feels the need to arm himself for protection. This may be our only chance to take him down. One of his allies is my informant and he plans to join us in eliminating him. The problem is that he may have one more ally as well, so we need all the numbers we can get. Can we count on your support?
- Checklad:
- Wa-wait, Bo-Bobemmo has a-allies?
- A-Allright, l-let me co-come al-along..
- The armoury r-right?
- Subject: S-s-sorry
- Checklad:
- H-Hi again Bo-bobemmo.
- Sor-sorry for beating y-you up.. B-But I-I want to as-ask you so-something... We-Well, multiple things ac-actually..
- Wa-wanna ta-talk?
- Bobemmo:
- "oww... Oh, Checklad, I didn't notice you there. I'd thank you for being quiet and considerate of my headache, but you're so timid I doubt it was even a conscious decision.
- I can't say I particularly want to talk with someone who so violently attacked me yesterday, but it's not like I'm in a position to just get up and walk away. I'll hear you out, but make it brief."
- Checklad:
- B-bri-brief? Y-You kn-know I-I'm a stu-stutterer, ri-right?
- Wa-wait! I-I have so-something be-better tha-than ta-talking, I-I have paper a-and crayons i-in my room, yo-you do know w-we share a-a wall ri-right?

- Giv-givme a minute...
- Checklad:
- Psst, Bo-Bobemmo. Over here..
- http://i.imgur.com/mARbgJl.png
- Bobemom:
- You're surprisingly perceptive. Your attitude had me thinking at first that you were content to just drift along, aided by everyone else. You've noticed, though, that just because people act nice to you doesn't mean they're really on your side, which shows more thought and self-awareness than I would have thought you possible of.
- My current situation does seem to suggest that I need some allies. While I am a little surprised that you'd come to me with this sort of proposal, in appreciation for your proactive attitude, I will accept. I'll also share a bit of info, though I request you keep this secret unless you want to see me when I'm really scary.
- I have no reason to kill you in particular. I indeed did choose you because of your meekness, though I see now I might need to reconsider.
- Our meetings these two days were entirely by chance... Unless you are influencing them somehow, since I am not.
- As for the injuries, they hurt, but I'll live. I might need some time to rest, but I can hardly fault you for trying to take your future into your own hands.

- Subject: Talk
- Checklad:
- can I offer a token to you and get that information concerning if an item exists that let's somebody know all the other people's objectives? I'm between a rock and a hard place here xD
- Also: manipulation galore, or is it?
- Advocate:
- Haha, I'll accept the diary entries as payment for this information.
- Those who went to the other rooms found some old clothing, within which were some slips of paper with green crayon writing ... what you deduce from that is up to you ;)
- Checklad:
- haha, does that mean they have my diary entries? xD
- Well either way crap. There's a massive alliance forming, I can tell you that much and I'm not sure whether I'm part of it or not!
- Advocate:
- they didn't find your slips of paper, but slips of paper from earlier "guests."
- Checklad:
- Whoa, that's actually a really great twist!
- Advocate:
- Haha, I like it too. I'm not sure if the other players have twigged what these pieces of paper imply though ...
- I'm hoping for a few deaths tomorrow, muahaha
- Checklad:
- Scary....
- Trouble, trouble, trouble...
- I wish to use my X-ray goggles on Falafel_eater
- I want to use both sticks should I enter combat (which I probs will...)
- I want to go to the library
- This is again also partially for myself:
- Allies: Cornetto_man, Finalnwo, Ctom24, Bobemmo falafel_eater, aspiration, insanityissexy Enemies: / Neutral: Kowzz
- Should I end up alone in the same room as Bobemmo, I wish to try and kill him using both sticks.
- Information for you:
- I just realized I've never PMed with Kowzz: I have zero knowledge regarding him. Yup, alliance with Bobemmo, desperation is slowely getting to me, I can't trust falafel_eater, aspiration and insanityissexy anymore. All three are fishing for information and seem to share it together, and neither me nor my character like that all too much...
- Advocate:
- Now that the game is lethal, there's a lot of doubt floating around today!
- Would you like the use the X-ray goggles on falafel now or as an action during the day? If you wait for the days actions then you'll get a report on what he has as he leaves the common area and when he comes back.
- Checklad:
- Well I want to know what he finds
- As the day comes to a close, you settle into bed, anxious about what the new day will bring. Lethality rules rescinded? Are you allies truly your allies or have they just been awaiting this moment? You finally fall into a restless sleep.
- You awake after hearing a brief yell from the common area, you swiftly rise, unlock your door and step through. You see aspiration staggering out of Lishy's room. "He's dead" he announces to the room, now filled with the other players. After aspiration has headed to a corner of the room, rooting around for a wine bottle, you step up to Lishy's door and look within. You don't see any obvious signs of foul play, although Lishy's clothes are dishevelled. You turn back to the common room and proceed to get your breakfast, you want to be at full strength today. As you enjoy your breakfast, Insanity comes over and offers you a sweetie, you gladly accept even if it does end out tasting of chalk.
- A clang announces the start of another day. The door providing access to the rest of the mansion has reopened.
- Ctom is the first out, a man with a mission. You follow the crowd but notice that there are only 8 of you, Bobemmo stands idle, watching you head on. Shaking his head, he turns and heads back to his room.
- Once you've entered the corridor, you see another 3 new signs have been lit up, Armoury, Computer archive, and the library. You head towards the computer archive. Both insanity and falafel stand beside you, and you all begin to head towards the Armoury. As you go, you accidentally walk into the back of FinalNwo, you apologise and continue on your way.
- The path is long and convoluted, at a particularly dark corner you stumble into a side corridor, unwittingly left behind by your companions. With your night blindness kicking in, you stumble forwards, finally reaching a room with a plaque on the door saying "Library." You step within, seeing a vast collection of novels, a few organised in book cases but most just scattered at random on any free surface. You look closely to any weapons, perhaps you could have an armoury within a library? No, it appears you won't be seeing your companions for a while. No matter, books can't harm you, no Bobemmo to wrestle with, maybe this room isn't so bad?
- Just as you begin to feel comfortable, a shadow emerges, you shriek, Bobemmo is coming to kill you this time! Only you thought Bobemmo was taller, and maybe not quite so thin? As the figure just stands there, looking worried, you realise that it's just FinalNwo. You laugh, things are going to be alright. You agree a search plan with FinalNwo, finding a token and a spy camera.
- As you are about to leave, FinalNwo calls you over. He's found a diary, apparently belonging to one of the servants here. You sit down and read through it. It begins with idle gossip about the fellow servants, then lists a few pranks that have occurred. As you work through the pages, the prank instances grow, both in frequency and severity. None of the other servants ever claim responsibility, the culprit remains unknown but there is plenty of theorising about who the culprit is. The final entry talks only of their suspicions, but the owner doesn't wish their thoughts to be found amidst the new searches that are taking place in the servant quarters so she leaves it here, with the intention of collecting it later. She never did.
- One your way back to the common area you bump into falafel_eater, how convenient! While his attention is elsewhere you slip on the x-ray goggles and see that he's carrying:
- 7 tokens: the player who has completed their secret objective and has the most of these wins the game.
- Tracker: tells you which room each of the players went to
- Bullet proof vest: negates one bullet
- Mask: your identity will be hidden when you visit a room
- Lockpick: if you remain in the common room for the day, you may steal from from the stash of a player who is absent.
- Wooden stick: +1 combat rating. Cracked, only has one more fight in it.
- You are currently unharmed, with a default combat rating of 3.
- You are currently carrying:
- 7 tokens: the player who has completed their secret objective and has the most of these wins the game.
- Wooden stick: +1 combat rating (can be used in 2 fights)
- Wooden stick: +1 combat rating. Cracked, it will only survive one more fight.
- Spy camera: you will know everything that happens in a particular room for one day
- Day 4:
- Checklad:
- I-I thought y-you di-died!
- T-Turns o-out Ko-Kowzz i-is no-not to b-be tr-trusted, h-he sca-scammed me w-with ba-bad in-information!

- Insanity:
- Me too!
- Yes, I unfortunately found out he can't be trusted as well... He gave me some bad information too. I'm sorry for any possible consequences that had for you because of that. I'm pretty ashamed I let myself be led astray by him.
- I don't know yet... But hey, if you told the truth about your objective before, aren't you okay now? You could just stay in the common room for the remaining days and you'd survive! Isn't that great?
- Checklad:
- I am thinking of(f?) doing that actually, but I want to know the truth. I want to know why Bobemmo seems so specific on getting me, I want to know why I got robbed today and by whom as well...
- I can't trust anybody here, can I?
- Insanity:
- Wow, where did your stutter go?
- I can understand all that. I want to find out about lots of things as well. But honestly, right now my top priority is getting out of here alive. It sucks that you got robbed but I really have to focus on myself for these next few days or I simply won't make it. That unfortunately means I can't tell you where I'm going... I'll still do all I can to help you though. If I find out anything about /u/bobemmoHe doesn't care [+58], I'll definitely tell you.
- You got robbed? I hope they didn't take anything important.
- I'd say you can trust me, but... I'm not sure I'm worthy of your trust anymore.
- Checklad:
- Thing is, I don't know who robbed me: it could be Bobemmo, or somebody else entirely. Doesn't that mean somebody else targets me as well?
- All tokens that I had stored in my room and a couple of diary entries are missing...
- All I want is that we are a bit more on equal footing you know? I'm not a big player like you are, I don't have a lot of information. I just want to survive and I need to know what's going to happen to me and I just feel that you are so capable of getting the information for that...
- Insanity:
- All tokens that I had stored in my room and a couple of diary entries are missing...
- ...When I told you that you:
- "But hey, if you told the truth about your objective before, aren't you okay now? You could just stay in the common room for the remaining days and you'd survive! Isn't that great?"
- ...You didn't mention the being robbed of your tokens. You acknowledged what I said as if it were true and said:
- "I am thinking of(f?) doing that actually, but I want to know the truth."
- So, I'm sorry, but I still feel a bit wary of you and your objective...
- Well, I'm not exactly a big player anymore either. But let me tell you that if I come across any information that might be useful to you, for example, anything about /u/bobemmoHe doesn't care [+58] at all, I promise I'll tell you about it.
- But okay; if you don't want to stay in the common room, you can pick a room you want to go, tell me about it, and I might show up (as your ally, of course). No promises though. I think this is the best I can do. For now.
- ...That sounds kind of suspicious, but I don't mean for it to be that way, obviously. I just don't know how else to say it.
- Checklad:
- I'm literally losing my mind here I can't seem to keep track of everything anymore: everybody wants information, but I barely have anything to share. I don't even know what to do anymore, my objective is lost, help you and falafel? With what?
- I'm not even sure myself what kind of information would be useful to me, bobemmo seems obvious though. Thank you.
- It's not a matter of wanting, I've got conflicted goals/things to do here... Either I go with you two, find out information and hope to find tokens and hope to survive with your help, or stay at the main room and hope for the best, which as we know is not going to do anything here.
- Almost anything anybody says seems suspicious to me..
- Oh! I forgot, if I could choose the room, I'd choose the attic, it seems to be the best bet for tokens, but not much else...
- permalinkfull comments
- Insanity:
- Help? I don't really need help. Did Falafel say that? Because we had a falling out and are not an alliance anymore. That's probably important information for you. We went to the armory (but you didn't, by the way). I was attacked by someone and falafel wouldn't let me escape. He was actually planning on attacking me himself.
- So yeah. Sorry, I know it sucks. Now you have even less an idea of who to trust.
- Oh, yes, the room. I forgot as well. The attic should be fine, though I do suspect that many others will think it's an interesting place as well. People seem to have it out for me so I'd rather not go to a room where much people would be going. But it's up to you. I may or may not choose to be there.
- Checklad:
- Well nice to know that both of you told me that after I expected everything to be fine again...
- I didn't go to the armoury because I thought you two would be fine, and I would go find information, and the little information that I found was useless: a red herring...
- Tell you what, how about we go to the attic together, watch each other's backs and I'll try and get falafel to go to the greenhouse.
- Insanity:
- I'll think about it. Like I said; I really need to work on my own objective.
- A red herring?
- Checklad:
- Well what is your objective? I'm 95% certain by now that my objective can't be completed anymore, since half my tokens got stolen..
- Red herring: something useless yet interesting to serve as a distraction.
- Checklad:
- Could you share some information to me? You said people were gonna die, but only Lishy died...
- I seem to be unable to get any real information and I'm seriously considering waiting everything out now since everybody is so scary~
- Cornetto:
- Now now, haven't you ever heard of give and take? You can't just receive, I believe in equivalent exchange. So how about you let me know what happened in your room and I'll tell why I said people would die back then. I do appreciate your help yesterday and I hope we can continue helping each other out but I can't give everything away.
- You know what, as a show of good faith I'll start. Many doubts were raised about what happened in the Garbage Disposal room yesterday. Ctom claimed Insanity had an ally attack him. Insanity claimed Ctom attacked her. However Ctom had a bump on his head. Now I can tell you for definite that there were only two people in the Garbage Disposal room yesterday. What you make of that I'll let you decide.
- Checklad:
- I feel seriously uninformed...
- The only noteworthy thing that's happened is finding a diary with what appears to be useless information that's about the servants-quarters... You know if there was something found in the servants-quarters like it, otherwise I'm not sure if it's even worth mentioning...
- Cornetto:
- Was anything written in said diary? Don't worry, I don't ask for free.
- As for why I made that prediction yesterday, I knew of several plots to kill certain people. Betrayal was the name of the game. However things obviously didn't go to plan. Hehehe, which may not be a bad thing...
- Checklad:
- Lemme see if I can reproduce it for you..
- You sit down and read through it. It begins with idle gossip about the fellow servants, then lists a few pranks that have occurred. As you work through the pages, the prank instances grow, both in frequency and severity. None of the other servants ever claim responsibility, the culprit remains unknown but there is plenty of theorising about who the culprit is. The final entry talks only of their suspicions, but the owner doesn't wish their thoughts to be found amidst the new searches that are taking place in the servant quarters so she leaves it here, with the intention of collecting it later. She never did.
- Seems useless to me, but you seem to know a lot and I think you also went to the server's quarters the first day? Maybe this makes sense to you?
- Cornetto:
- "Hmm. Interesting. It may be useless but from experience so far in this hell, nothing is without meaning. As to its meaning I can only speculate. My immediate reaction is that this may be a clue to discovering the identity of our lovely host. Although I may be wrong, it may be from a previous game played like ours. I can't be sure....yet.
- Thank you for sharing with me. I think there may be a way around this game. And I intend on finding it."
- Checklad:
- God, I hope there is. I'm getting really scared for my life here. You're probably the only one, or one of two? That hasn't threatened to kill me yet...
- You know anything about the alliance between falafel and insanity?
- Cornetto:
- I don't believe killing will accomplish anything. I am far to busy for something like that. Plus we're allies are we not? I might dare say friends. You have helped me on numerous occasions and we have swapped valuable information.
- Alas I don't have much information on that particular group. All I can say is that they've stuck together from the start. And that as I have mentioned before, Insanity might have been a very bad girl. hehehe. I of course am always open for more information.
- Checklad:
- Very true, then again you seem like the brains guy, you really do. Are we?
- That.
- That makes me so happy.
- To think I'd hear here, of all places, makes me glad I choose to trust you..
- All I want to know is, you keep saying Insanity has been 'bad', but what do you mean. You know I'm not smart, I'm not a brains guy, please tell me and I'll tell you what you want, if I know of course since my information is limited..
- Cornetto:
- I may have overstepped my bounds when I call her bad. Is anyone in this situation bad for trying to survive? That I cannot answer. What I can say, with some confidence, is that Insanity has not been truthful of events so far. There are discrepancies in all of her stories which the others have missed.....well except maybe for Kowzz. You would do well to give him a wide berth. He is allied with Insanity for sure. On top of that he lets very little go. He is one of the few who I have little to no information on.
- Any information is of help. If you come across anything in your searches which you think may be useless, keep me in mind. As they say, one mans trash...
- Checklad:
- another mans fortune.
- I wouldn't take you for a garbage collector deargodI'mgoingtohellforthatjoke.
- I've not bothered to talk with Kowzz at all, and seems like I'm better off not bothering. Thank you for saving me the time and effort...
- I'll check tomorrow if I got any useless information left for you. But it's late, I'm going to bed, could you message me your thoughts on aspiration? He seems to have it out for me...
- Cornetto:
- Hehehe. Another piece of advice on Kowzz. Never list him as an enemy. You can leave him neutral, but just don't no matter what list him as an enemy.
- Checklad:
- Pretty have done so much from the beginning, I have no idea what it is he's going on about so I leave him be. But he seems to be allied with insanity, could you verify that for me, if you have the knowledge that is of course..
- May I ask again what your thoughts/information are about aspiration: I barely know anything about him. I can offer you 100% certainty in what falafel is carrying at this moment, and the knowledge that I have a spy-camera on me.
- Cornetto:
- I can confirm that as of yesterday they were allies. Whether that continues or not is anyone's guess. I have reason to believe that he will do something big today. We'll have to wait and see. Hehehe
- I have not had much interaction with Aspiration. We spoke briefly on day one and I got a decent idea of his personality. However I don't have anything concrete on him.
- I can tell you something else. Somebody in this game has a gun.
- Checklad:
- Tell you what, I'm 95% sure who has the gun, who has the bullets and 100% sure who has the bullet proof vest(!). Care to know?
- Cornetto:
- It would certainly be helpful.
- Checklad:
- It seems Insanity has the gun
- Kowzz apparentely has the bullets, and is allied with Insanity (!)
- I know 100% for certain that Falafel has the bullet proof vest.
- Note that falafel told me this, well except for the bullet proof vest: I know that because I used an item.
- I'd be willing to share even more, if you give me some valuable information in return..
- Cornetto:
- In that case, let me tell you why I told you not to make Kowzz an enemy. His secret objective is to have 6 people list him as an enemy on the one day. However he hasn't done anything to warrant that yet. I think he's going to make a big play soon.
- This new information complicates things....or perhaps enhances them. Hehehe. Today should be interesting indeed. Have you decided on your plan yet. I believe watching each others backs maybe be beneficial.
- Checklad:
- Very much so, also something that might interest you:
- Insanity has the most tokens, followed up by Bobemmo and Cornetto_Man.
- I truely believe Insanity and falafel dominate this game, and I aim to at least even the playground at the last day.
- Would be you interested in joining me to go to the attic? According to a source (that I wish to keep secret), the attic is my best bet: and could very well turn the tables. However, I'm fairly certain falafel, aspiration or insanity will follow me there, I could use the help. As I'm not certain they would want me to stay alive..
- Cornetto:
- How interesting. I had planned on visiting the attic anyway. I believe I may find some clues there. This should prove a very entertaining night. I'll see you there. Hehehe.
- Bobemmo has the second most tokens eh? He may have stolen them from Lishy.
- Checklad:
- Could very well be true
- Can I count on you then? Otherwise I'd miss out on whatever it is that is so important in the attic and wait out in the common room...
- Cornetto:
- You can. I believe the chance of finding something outweighs the risk. We don't have long left now. I'll see you there.
- Checklad:
- Very well, I'll see you there my friend.
- Subject: s-s-sorry
- Checklad:
- Seems like you took up my advice to stay behind, that's great because it seems falafel & insanity are annoyed with me about neither of us (easy targets) going to the armoury. But honestly, I could really use a reliable ally. Would you be that ally for me?
- Bobemmo:
- I'm certainly in need of some allies, and you've proven yourself, in my mind. I could definitely work with you as an ally.
- Is there a particular plan you had in mind? Someone you want dead? A room you want to visit? I would normally have a full plan in mind, but I am still recovering and want to avoid rushing into things too hastily. Your timidness might be of help to me here, so I'll hear what you have to say to give me some ideas of how we can proceed.
- Checklad:
- Well I intend to keep you alive, all things considered, you were one of the few people that actually listened to me. Others, not so much.
- It's not so much timidness as a combination of timidness and careful planning.
- You remember your list? Falafel was on it yes? Turns out she's been sucking information out of me together with someone else for days now, without ever doing something back: I've run out patience and I intend to make sure to put him back in place: killing wouldn't be out of the question. Since falafel & insanity 'apparentely' had a 'falling out', they are no longer allies. So I'm trying to get falafel into the attic with me. Opportunity perhaps? Also trying to get somebody else involved on our side, hope that'll be succesful, just to be sure: it's Finalnwo if you want to know.
- If you still don't trust me, here's some more information for you that I found out about falafel:
- 7 tokens: the player who has completed their secret objective and has the most of these wins the game. Tracker: tells you which room each of the players went to Bullet proof vest: negates one bullet Mask: your identity will be hidden when you visit a room Lockpick: if you remain in the common room for the day, you may steal from from the stash of a player who is absent. Wooden stick: +1 combat rating. Cracked, only has one more fight in it.
- That are quite a lot of tools for somebody who's trying very hard to keep everybody from killing each other, yes?
- I also know insanity is carrying a gun, but somebody else has the bullets. It's probably Kowzz, since he's the only person I haven't talked to ever, but I know that he's allied with insanity..
- Are you in?
- Bobemmo:
- There's no way I would ever want to sit around in this room doing nothing for two days in a row. falafel sure seems to have gathered a lot of items, and it might be in our best interest to work together and get rid of him before he can start using them all.
- I also only have a stick as a weapon, so I won't be too much help, but I'll join you in visiting that attic and hope we can finally get something done in this game.
- Subject: Day 4.
- Checklad:
- I'm near 100% certain I found the person with the mask! I really want to tell you, but I do need to know what you know about the masked person already to make sure I'm not going to make a mistake at my last train of thought..
- FinalNwo:
- I think I already told you, Kowzz was the one with the clown's mask. Tell me what you think, though. I don't mind listening for now.
- Checklad:
- Thing is, I'm not sure if the mask can be used multiple times, but it seems falafel_eater is carrying one on him. Also has a lockpick!
- FinalNwo:
- I see, so there already are three masked people running around here, if I can trust you on that one... A lockpick, huh? Interesting. Perhaps I should "borrow" it...
- Checklad:
- That'd be an idea. I think?
- I also know that falafel has a bullet-proof vest and a lot of tokens! Also seems he and insanity had a fall out, you know anything about that?
- FinalNwo:
- Yes, and no. I don't really know if I can trust his words, but it seems like Insanity has the gun, while someone else has the bullets for it. falafel or insanity also might have taken my weapon, while I was going to the computer archives.
- FinalNwo:
- But like I said, don't trust me on that one. I don't know it myself, it's just something I've been told.
- Checklad:
- see, that's the problem. Their stories don't match up, they're trying to kill two birds with one stone I believe:
- Falafel: Are you in the alliance? (the alliance between falafel, insanity and apparentely me) Well, the alliance fell apart. (read the reason:) Insanity thinks you and Kowzz tried to ambush her, and now she picked up a gun. (Was never told any of this, never talked to Kowzz, picking up a gun is dangerous but doesn't mention anything about the bullets) For the time being I'm trying to make sure nobody gets shot around here. If you feel like helping out then you can join the alliance. (And guess where I should go?)
- You told us so little that we didn't know. (Never asked anything) The only reason I came into the armory last night was that Insanity was convinced you were trying to kill her. (Why? I do not know, I'm trying to collect as many tokens and clearly stated I refused to go to the armoury) The more people we have, the more freedom. If we are strong then we can avoid killing. (Bullshit) If we are weak, sometimes there is no choice. And she has a gun... or more accurately, she has half of a gun. (Ah, details) Her friend has the other half (what friend? How does he know, why didn't he tell me before?), and they are probably putting the two together as we speak.
- And should you be worried? Well, she thinks you were trying to murder her (which didn't happen, I wasn't there.) and she'll soon be able to kill anyone she wants. Yes, you should be very worried. (A threat: listen to me, or you're done for.)
- Insanity: Help? I don't really need help. (A challenge?) Did /u/falafel_eaterUntrustworthy shit [+95] [+38] say that? Because we had a falling out and are not an alliance anymore. (Why.) That's probably important information for you. (Pretty much since I'm part of the alliance, or so it goes) We went to the armory, but you didn't, by the way. (True, then again I was 'attacking' you regardless) I was attacked by someone and /u/falafel_eaterUntrustworthy shit [+95] [+38] wouldn't let me escape. (Ah, details. Unless that someone had a mask, and it was Kowzz, the stories don't match. Especially since masks are one-time use..) He was actually planning on attacking me himself. (Observation, but how did she escape? Hmm.)
- FinalNwo:
- -Especially since masks are one-time use
- Not true. As long as you have it, you can use it any time you like, unless you lose it.
- So apparently, the alliance doesn't exist anymore? That's good to see. Insanity was tangled up in her lies already, so it's for the better, if she meets her end sooner rather than later.
- Maybe Kowzz wasn't trying to ambush her, but just wanted to create a situation like this, to have a reason for kicking falafel_eater and (maybe) you out of their alliance.
- Checklad:
- How you know masks are not one-time use, I'm legitmately interested, because X-ray goggles are one-time only, and that's not very realistic either... Doesn't that mean there's at least two people with masks? Falafel & Kowzz..
- Apparentely yes, but I honestly doubt it: their stories may not add up completely, and they even give information away, but it all seems too convenient: not to mention the fact that I always was the third-wheel until now.
- Trying to get either Insanity or Falafel into the attic: if I pay you two tokens and tell you that I have a spy-tracker, would you be willing to join me and another ally in taking one of them out, (or two of them, depending on the situation): I've been avoiding them for so long, but I'm getting tired of their play and their domination over all of us.
- FinalNwo:
- Well, I actually don't. It just makes more sense. I know that I have one of them, but haven't used it yet (IRL note: The description doesn't say anything like that). You can confirm that, because I was with you yesterday.
- What is the spy-tracker doing? And who is your other ally?
- Also, I can say one thing, my own tracker thingy said, Insanity has the most tokens, followed up by Bobemmo and Cornetto_Man.
- Checklad:
- I asked for verification about the mask:
- Masks are fragile, and generally tear after being used for the day. But I'm normally generous with it's use, if you go to a room while wearing a mask and no one is there, then you may be able to take it off without breaking it.
- Actually I didn't know you had a mask (I think?), but now I know: but that's even better: go to the attic with the mask on and see what you'll do, I don't mind: just be there.
- Spy-tracker, I meant Spy-camera! It allows me to see what happens in a room I wasn't in, if I so desire.
- Insanity the most tokens? I'm not suprised, considering her alliances and her being one of the two people that absolutely dominate this game.
- My Ally? Let's just say he's a desperate man whose trust I managed to win in the last two days. I'm sorry I can't tell more: I'm still busy keeping falafel and insanity off my back and I want to at least keep some kind of edge, even over you, sorry...
- FinalNwo:
- Sure, I just thought it would be better if I knew who it was, so I don't accidentally attack him, too. Just let him know that I'm only on Insanity.
- I don't know if you had plans with it, but it would be nice, if you could observe the Masters bedroom with it.
- I'll do as you say, for today. Two tokens you say? If I receive them, I will go to the attic.
- Checklad:
- Well I wasn't sure if you'd consider him your enemy, but considering your statement about Insanity. It's Cornetto, he's also mostly out for information and is wary of Insanity & falafel, just like me. I'll mention it to advocate, no need to worry. I'll not check the bedroom and pay you, it's one or the other.
- FinalNwo:
- Oh, I see. Then I'd only like you to either check it yourself, or use the camera thing. If you do that, there's no need to pay me, as long as you tell me what you'll find out.
- FinalNwo:
- Oh well, since I already received them, I don't care. I don't have time to wait for an answer. No need to scout the bedroom.
- Checklad:
- Guess you will come along then, already gave the tokens to you. But what happens in the bedroom will be a secret unless you offer something in return...
- Subject: Past Alliances
- Falafel:
- I know you said you hate being milked for information, but sometimes this can be crucial. Tell me, when you thought you weren't my ally, did you make any alliances with anyone else?
- Or maybe I should ask it like this... who do you think wants to hurt you right now?
- Bobemmo is obvious, but is there anyone else? I can't protect you if I don't know who the threats are.
- Checklad:
- well I'm not sure whether insanity and whomever is allied with her, is coming after me...
- There's also aspiration, whom seems to chase after me for some reason.
- Pretty much the only people I can trust are you and maybe cornetto and ctom because they at least leave me alone..
- Falafel:
- Alright, thank you.
- I think Cornetto might be very dangerous. I'm trying to find more information about him. Will you let me know if you hear anything about him?
- Checklad:
- I will, don't worry. But I barely know anything about Cornetto, it's like nobody has any idea what he knows or is like: and he seems to want to keep it that way..
- Scary...
- Falafel:
- Please tell me what you plan on doing for tonight. I am trying to get rid of the gun as safely as possible.
- Look out for aspiration if you see him. He is very dangerous.
- Falafel:
- Listen, aspiration has the gun and insanity is allied with him. They're going to kill everyone unless we stop them. Everyone is coming together to stop this. Tonight we are one big alliance against the gun.
- The two of them seem to be heading into the attic, but I can use a Tracker to find them if they try to get away so make sure you ask me their location. Make sure you stay with FinalNwo. Bobemmo is also on our side tonight; we have a temporary truce.
- Don't get lost tonight -- if Insanity finds you, she will shoot you dead.
- Subject: Still Alive?
- Aspiration:
- You're either incredibly clever or incredibly lucky. I'm more inclined to believe the former.
- Tell me, do you still believe Bobemmo is your only threat?
- Checklad:
- Is this a threat? You certainly seem like you would like to get rid of me.
- Why? What did I ever do to you? I already have my hands full trying to keep Bobemmo at bay and my allies from killing one another..
- Why does everybody want to kill, threaten, lie and deciet. All I want is to live.
- Aspiration:
- No threat. Only a question.
- Your allies certainly are a naughty bunch, that much is true. But you are wrong about one thing. I do not lie, everybody else may and that will be their undoing, but I myself deal in truth alone.
- Checklad:
- But what is your question?
- For somebody who's so sure in what he says, you seem a bit unreliable at times: which makes me sad, I thought I could rely on you, hang on to you and protect you as well. You refused and I had to make the best as the third wheel for falafel and insanity, for all the 'good' that did me...
- Besides, you never answered my questions from yesterday: it certainly doesn't make me more inclined to answer.
- So tell me, what truths do you have.
- What is your question.
- Aspiration:
- You meant how did I know you were lying? I trade in information, so it's not unnatural I knew the truth behind the events of the laundry room.
- I refused due to having other business to attend to, don't take it personally. You would've only proved to be a liability.
- My question to you was simple. Who do you think your enemies are?
- Checklad:
- Seems like you're eager to get rid of me, so I suppose you are, despite this I never intended to be your enemy but you're pushing me in a corner here for no reason other than doing it for the hell of it.
- Bobemmo still is, there's no helping that case..
- Other than that, why should I answer. It's not like I gain anything from telling you. All you want is information and give nothing back, that's not how it goes: even I know that much by now...
- Aspiration:
- You're clearly misunderstanding my actions. I was trying to help you (to my benefit as well) by identifying who you fear and who is actually trying to kill you. But if you want, we'll leave this as is.
- Checklad:
- Well I could use all the help I can get to be honest, this situation is getting scary and I need an ally: one whom actually helps me..
- Let me tell you that the way you ask your questions does make me anxious to answer, considering that I barely know anything about you: that much you probably know as well. So I thought you were targetting me.
- Tell you what, if you come with me and help me and FinalNwo in uncovering one last puzzle piece, both through protection and certain (oddly specific) information: I'll give you two of my tokens and the knowledge that I have a spy camera (and the information that I'll find with it), as well as the information you actually want to know:
- Whom I fear: Everybody T_T, including the Advocate, except for Cornetto because he's not hostile to me...
- Probably trying to kill me now: Falafel, Insanity (which would mean Kowzz as well)
- Absolutely trying to kill me: Bobemmo (which so far failed, thankfully)
- Subject: I'm listening
- Ctom:
- What did you want to talk about?
- Checklad:
- Well actually, I wanted to talk with falafel, but I guess I might as well share some interesting information with you that you could actually use to your advantage, well more so than I can, if you tell me one thing first. Do you have any connection (other than neutrality) with falafel?
- Ctom:
- I've talked with him, but don't trust him. He seems to trust me enough to give me information though. But it might all be lies. You know how it is.
- Checklad:
- Then you might be interested in this:
- "Are you in the alliance? Well, the alliance fell apart. Insanity thinks you and Kowzz tried to ambush her, and now she picked up a gun."
- You've had contact with Kowzz? I haven't, not even sure why they would have a fall out if Kowzz and I DID attack Insanity, wouldn't that mean that they'd go after me rather than break up?
- The alliance she mentions is between Falafel, Insanity and me. Though both only claim I'm part of it, I'm pretty much not since I get shoved aside..
- Regardless, what I DO know for certain is that falafel has a bulletproof vest, a tracker, a mask ánd a lockpick, not to mention a stick (+1 combat it seems). Unless he's stopped, or at least weakened, he'll dominate over all of us...
- Subject: Day 4
- Checklad:
- Is it possible to kill people in the main room?
- Advocate:
- At the moment the common room is a safe space, no killing allowed, however that may very soon ... kuhihihihi
- Checklad:
- Haha, seems aspiration has it out for me..
- - You're either incredibly clever or incredibly lucky. I'm more inclined to believe the former.
- Boy oh boy.
- - Tell me, do you still believe Bobemmo is your only threat?
- Dayum.
- Advocate:
- Wow, I wouldn't have expected any of the players to be so open in their threats, the game is heating up ;)
- Checklad:
- Yeah maybe you like it, but I'm seriously doubting what the heck I'm actually doing.
- Checklad:
- Could you also verify something for me: are masks one-time use only?
- Advocate:
- Masks are fragile, and generally tear after being used for the day. But I'm normally generous with it's use, if you go to a room while wearing a mask and no one is there, then you may be able to take it off without breaking it.
- Checklad:
- All right time for instructions:
- I wish to use the spytracker in the Master Bedroom
- I wish to use both sticks should I enter combat
- Allies: Cornetto_Man, FinalNwo, ctom24, Bobemmo Enemies: falafel_eater, insanityissexy, any masked person, aspiration Neutral: Kowzz
- I wish to go to the attic
- I pay two tokens to Finalnwo.
- Should I be in the room without any of the three enemies and am in a room with Bobemmo: regardless whom else is in there, I wish to try and kill him. Should I be in the room with only one other person, I wish to kill him. Should I be in the room with a masked person, I wish to kill him. Should Insanity be in the same room, I wish to immediately attack her, to minimize the risk of her gun.
- Intrigue! Plots! Schemes!
- I rule them all!
- Advocate:
- Ooo, exciting, I expect we'll have a player death tonight
- Checklad:
- God I hope so, but it's bloody tough because of my limited means..
- Advocate:
- It's going to be a long write up.
- Checklad:
- Should I be worried?
- Advocate:
- Maybe.
- Day 4 Events
- Another day in hell. You feel like the tension is oozing out of the walls. Everyone is on edge while you eat that evening. You're grateful for the chance to lock yourself away for the night, hearing the reassuring click as you turn the inner door latch.
- After hearing that dreaded clang of the main door these past three days, you've become sensitive to its sound, which is why it wakes you up despite being muffled by your closed bedroom door. You're heart races as you rush to the door, surely it's still too early?! Before you turn the latch and investigate you hear something new, kuhihihi, a gurgling laugh that chills you to the bone. Rather than unlocking your door you double check that it's locked, holding the latch firmly against any attempt to unlock it. Footsteps approach your door ... tap … tap … tap ... but they move on. You hear the creak of a bedroom door opening, a grunt, a few curses, and the tap, tap, tap returns, slower than before. Joining it is a swish, as if something were being dragged. The footsteps slowly fade and another muffled clang echoes into the night. You return to bed, trying to deny the implications of what you heard.
- In the morning you enter the common room and see a series of haggard faces, you don't think anyone slept well last night. Looking around, you notice Lishy's door is open. You don't investigate, you already know what you'd find there, or rather, what you wouldn't find.
- The familiar clang announces the start of another day.
- You make sure you're the first through, eagerly heading into the darkness.
- You make it to the master bedroom, opening the door just a crack and placing the camera amidst some clothing next to the door.
- You dash onwards to the attic. You see the door is already open a foul smell coming from it, mildew. You step in expecting to see mounds of dust and old boxes, but instead you see shiny cabling criss-crossing the floor. A lot of it. There must be several cables leading to every room in the house!
- But before examining that, you see Kowzz and Cornetto_Man standing in front of you. You smile at Cornetto_Man, no danger there, but then you notice a third figure, a demon! "D-d-d-demon!" You scream. In an instant you pull out both sticks and charge, striking a mighty blow before the figure can respond. Cornetto_Man and Kowzz stand transfixed, unsure whether to intervene as you pounds away. As you does so, the see that the demon is actually just a man with a mask, and the mask has been torn away revealing the bloodied face of Aspiration. Upon seeing who the figure is, Kowzz jumps into action, restraining you. Slowly, your breathing becomes more regular before two more figures step in. Bobemmo and another masked man. You scream again to cries of "monster" and redoubles his efforts to break free of Kowzz. You see the masked figure appraise the room then head over the Aspiration, offering him a hand. "Thanks, friend" says Aspiration as he accepts the help up.
- The figure looks over to you and whispers, "no, Checklad is correct." He brings up his other hand, burying a switchknife into Aspiration's belly. Aspiration looks up in shock, blood gushing out as he collapses back to the ground. The figure wipes his switchblade and steps back, his work done.
- Kowzz, still in shock, releases his hold on you and you immediately rush the masked man, snapping one of your sticks upon the back of his head. The masked man falls, his mask slipping revealing FinalNwo. You stops, "FinalNwo?" You drops to the floor and apologise. FinalNwo pushes you off, "some ally you are," he mutters as he regains his feet.
- By now, Kowzz has regained his senses, he pulls out his sword, "you'll pay for that!" He yells and charges FinalNwo, slashing him across the chest. Everyone stands still, awaiting FinalNwo's anguished cries, but it never comes. There's no blood on the sword. His slashes shirt opens to reveal a stab-proof vest. Before Kowzz can resume the attack FinalNwo turns and runs out the door. You yell his name and run after him, still apologising. You forget to retrieve the spy camera.
- You are currently unharmed, with a default combat rating of 3.
- You are currently carrying:
- 5 tokens: the player who has completed their secret objective and has the most of these wins the game.
- Wooden stick: +1 combat rating. Cracked, it will only survive one more fight.
- Day 5:
- Subject: A-A-All-Alliance?
- Checklad:
- Hello once again.
- Seems we got out unscatted, but my source turned out to be a lie all along, unless you found something before I came in?
- Can you make any sense out of what's happening in the attic? Kowzz is a problem, but aspiration is out of the picture and I'm not all that sad at that loss.
- Cornetto:
- Unfortunately I found nothing. And I didn't feel like sticking around to look after everything that happened.
- As much as I enjoy the thought of having one less threat, I can't help but feel that we are merely playing into the hands of our host. Something I had hoped to avoid. I still plan on discovering her secrets, my plan remains unchanged despite this setback. And I hope you'll continue to assist me in my attempt.
- Checklad:
- Trust me, I'm very much set on helping you here. This lock-tight alliance of ours works two ways: I make sure direct treats leave us, and others, alone and you try and solve everything whilst keeping your 'neutrality' in tact for the others.
- It's sad Aspiration had to die, but he's playing with what the Advocate wants: I hoped it would be somebody who's more obvoiusly trying to get us killed, like insanity or falafel, but alas something was bound to happen in the attic. We'll not let his life go in vain.
- Cornetto:
- You are right. I'm still a little shook and lost my composure for a moment there. We are the only ones who can do this now. The others are not even trying. They are too busy trying to kill each other. Only we can avenge Aspiration and Lishy too. I intend to find whoever is responsible and make them pay.
- Checklad:
- the Advocate...
- Tell me where you want to go, and I'll follow you there. I've run out of clues that I used to rely on..
- Cornetto:
- Once I investigate a little more I will return with a plan. We will make it out of here. We just need to stick together.
- Checklad:
- I'm going to the workshop, I need something to defend us with: I've got barely anything left at all..
- Cornetto:
- I agree the workshop is a sound choice for today. I hope to see you there.
- Subject: Day 2
- Checklad:
- About what happened,
- I'm not sure whether to congratulate you or not. You did excellent, but I messed up: I'm seriously starting to jump at my own shadow. I only intended to try and 'chase' you away again.
- However, you shouldn't worry: this only proved one thing to me for sure: you're a reliable ally, and I intend to stick to your side. Falafel and Insanity are at large, but Aspiration is no more, Kowzz's intentions have been revealed as well.
- FinalNwo:
- Well, thank you, but you should watch out. I even told you, I was coming in with a mask... Anyways, I don't know about Kowzz, enlighten me.
- Checklad:
- First off: he had a sword.
- Secondly: He was obviously allied with aspiration.
- Thirdly: Remember the theory about Kowzz being allied with Insanity? That means, by proxy, aspiration was allied with Insanity.
- Fourthly: I told you about the 'fight' between Insanity and falafel yes? How their stories don't match up quite exactly but both try really hard to show me it's true? Well turns out that other than us six that went to the attic: only ctom42 went to the greenhouse. I seriously doubt both of them would bother staying in the common room: they both went to the master bedroom.
- And lastly, and this is a long one:
- Why was Kowzz there? He had no real reason to be there: either he picked a room at random. Or, based on information Cornetto gave me, Kowzz is in 'the limbo': he's relatively neutral other than his (by proxy) alliances with aspiration, and either both or one of the following: falafel and Insanity. He went along with aspiration because it was expected that both would be left alone as both were considered 'in the limbo' of sorts: that a lot of people would be neutral to them, but they could still pick me off as I said I wanted to go to the attic.
- This goes along with my theory that falafel and Insanity are still allied, because falafel literally told me Insanity is allied with aspiration, and aspiration had the gun: but he didn't. Either Insanity or falafel have.
- FinalNwo:
- Well, I noticed he had a sword. See my pretty much nonexistent shirt? And yeah, I already figured that stuff out.
- (Fourthly:) That might be true. I don't know about Insanity, since we don't talk, but falafel misdirected me. I could have gotten her, if I wouldn't have followed him. However, Bobemmo might have been a problem then.
- And yeah, that's very likely. I will still be in contact with falafel, though, in order to gain more information, but I won't follow him blindly anymore.
- Checklad:
- Well, I'm merely stating my reasoning, that's all.
- Wouldn't have followed falafel where?
- Bobemmo wasn't a problem at all, seems like he's content with waiting things out: he didn't do anything in the attic after all: despite me being there.
- Yeah it's best to stay in contact with falafel, I've pretty much severed all connections by now since he's annoyed with me at my reluctance to give information or follow him to rooms for 'safety'.
- FinalNwo:
- Wouldn't have followed falafel into the attic, finding you guys. The Cornetto man also was right behind us. Heh, tried to sneak up on me. I don't know, maybe that even was the worst decision, out of all he could make.
- Checklad:
- Cornetto is actually pretty much the most harmless guy around, don't worry about him: notice how he didn't do anything in the attic. If we'll leave him alone, he'll provide information and won't sell us out. Besides, he was already in the attic when I entered: before you were even around, made a mistake there?
- Seems you also didn't need my incentive of tokens to go to the attic, as you're eager to follow falafel to the very same attic..
- permalinkfull comments
- FinalNwo:
- Whoops, I have mistaken Cornetto for Bobemmo, lol. I didn't look into the PM while writing, sorry.
- I followed him, because he was going to the attic, too, and I didn't want to lose his trust. However, I would have gone there, even if he would have planned to go elsewhere, because we already had that agreement, before he offered me to follow him.
- Checklad:
- Well that explains, still wonder why Bobemmo left me alone.. Odd, seems he's the odd one out here? Maybe he's like Cornetto and needs to find information: used his declaration in the beginning as a red herring?
- Falafel is getting truely annoying, could you perhaps pull some strings in getting her somewhere, let's just say, unsafe? I'm 100% willing to back you up here.
- FinalNwo:
- Who knows. I already had the idea of his secret objective, and now that he didn't kill you when he had the chance, confirms it for me.
- And sure, it seems like he still is with insanity, but also is dangerous on his own.
- Checklad:
- Who's secret objective: Kowzz? Bobemmo?
- You talking about the same person, I'd be suprised if Bobemmo was allied with anybody at this point..
- FinalNwo:
- I meant Bobemmo's objective. He just wanted to make enemies, because of it. He didn't have any hostility towards you, nor was there any name on his paper.
- Checklad:
- Any name on his paper?
- You've got me confused there.
- I've never bothered to try and learn anything about Bobemmo, he seemed like somebody who's simply after me, so he has to be a murderer. But the Attic seemed so peaceful when I look back: Bobemmo and I were there together, and we didn't fight. It's logical that I don't attack: I try to avoid attacking first, except with the masks (Aspiration) because that was 100% certain to be danger.
- Does this mean Bobemmo isn't targetting me anymore? I'm confused.
- FinalNwo:
- No, no. He only wanted to make enemies, so he picked random names that weren't even on his paper. Since I discovered one other objective, I think it's his one. "Paranoid: at least 6 players must list you as an enemy on the same day". Makes sense, because he made some enemies from that.
- I would still watch out, because, like anyone else, he's trying to win. So if you get in his way somehow, he will try to kill you.
- Checklad:
- Actually that's odd, Cornetto hinted at a similiar objective about the '6 people list you as enemy', but hinted towards Kowzz. But since I have no true reliable information regarding both (other than the guess/detective work I showed you), it could very well be both that have that objective, or one, or neither.
- FinalNwo:
- I don't think Kowzz has this objective. First: He would have been openly hostile against many people, not lurking in the shadows with a clown's mask. Second: He wouldn't trade with information, because people might see him as "neutral" because of that. And third: He wouldn't ally with anyone on the first days, but he did.
- And even if he has this objective, he can't fulfill it anymore, because six people need to list him as an enemy on the same day, not in total, and he doesn't seem to do anything about this.
- Checklad:
- That's why it's odd, since it doesn't add up yet Cornetto has been a reliable source of information, if nothing else.
- Maybe Cornetto is leading me astray, and Kowzz is a murderer: he has the tools at his disposal: alliances, weapons, neutrality.
- I'm going to the workshop, feel free to join me or go to the study. I'm fairly certain the darkroom is a deadwish.
- FinalNwo:
- If he was a murderer, he would have killed someone already. Since he was with you, Cornetto and aspiration, he had his opportunities.
- Alright, good luck there.
- Subject: The Attic
- Ctom:
- Seeing as I was one of the only people not present for what sounds to have been quite the ordeal, I was wondering if you could perhaps fill me in on the details of Aspiration's demise.
- Of course if your weak constitution prevents you from properly recalling and relaying such a tragic tale, I will understand.
- Checklad:
- I'm not weak enough to text yet, do not worry.
- I'm quite willing to share the information, we've been nothing but friendly this entire time and I do not intend to change that a bit. However, I'm quite curious as to know what you've found, seeing as almost all people were in the attic..
- Ctom:
- Just gardening tools. Not even particularly useful, though I suppose they could help me defend myself in a desperate situation. (+1 weapon)
- Checklad:
- I didn't even think of that!
- Regardless, the following people were in the attic:
- Kowzz, Cornetto_Man, Aspiration, FinalNwo and me.
- I entered the attic, and I met Cornetto_Man and Kowzz. A masked man showed up from the shadows and I attacked immediately: I believe I told you that falafel had a mask and I based my presumptions on that. Turned out to be Aspiration, rather than falafel.
- Next thing I knew, Kowzz charged at me and held me back (alliance.). Finalnwo came up, with a mask on, and killed Aspiration: I managed to find out his identity by breaking his mask (thinking, or rather hoping, it was falafel), but he ran away.
- Cornetto managed to withhold me from fighting Kowzz (who has a sword).
- That's basically what happened: no items, no additional information, only death and the information that Kowzz was allied with aspiration, and it seems my intuition that both were allied, by proxy, with falafel and Insanity is 99% certain now.
- Checklad:
- Also, was anybody else in the greenhouse?
- Ctom:
- Insanity showed up at the last minute.
- Checklad:
- any details you'd like to share? I've given you pretty much all I have by now...
- Subject: Quite the eventful night
- Falafel:
- Well, that was certainly something else.
- How are you feeling? You alright?
- Checklad:
- But you weren't there, right? I'd be more than willing to fill you in with details, but it seems somebody else already told you..
- I think from the fact that I puked in the common room is enough to show just how I feel about the entire situation: I don't want people killed, but I was told to never trust anyone with a mask. Well, I didn't need a whole lot of convincing since it turns out those masks are really, really scary.
- I thought you'd be there for me, the entire situation would've been different: Aspiration would've been alive!
- Falafel:
- It's always good to get more than one side of the story. People dying is hard, I guess, but the more dangerous the situation the less freedom there is in how we handle it.
- If someone has a knife, you can just grab their hand and take the knife away. If they have a gun, trying that will get you killed.
- You told me Aspiration was chasing you, remember? He is dead because of that. I protect my allies. Would you rather have died instead of him?
- Checklad:
- I said I thought Aspiration was chasing after me due to the messages he send me: threats mostly, I wasn't sure though and I didn't intend to do anything to him. Since he and I have never been in a room together, I was legitimately suprised he actually wanted to go ahead and make his threat a reality.
- I'm not sure, for all I know Aspiration could've been useful to you, more than I am. So why? Why did you help me instead of somebody else, somebody useful?
- Falafel:
- Because that's what it means to be allied with someone. If someone is trying to kill you, I kill them. And anyway, I believe you can be very useful when you try to be.
- I have a feeling tonight is going to be dangerous, so I'd appreciate it if you--as my ally--could have my back in case I get attacked.
- Subject: ...
- Aspiration:
- "I puke, it feels like I've seen something that I never should've: my mind turns numb and I feel tears getting pushed out of my eyes."
- Payback, motherfucker. I'll see you in your bedroom tonight
- Checklad:
- Wait, you're dead.
- How can you message me?
- Are you not truely dead?
- Am I also dead without having realised it?
- Tell me, tell me something!
- Aspiration:
- Nah, I'm just haunting you. Or maybe you developed schizophrenia...
- Checklad:
- Wouldn't be the first time I've been haunted.
- Yet, you feel different. Do you remember anything about what happened?
- Aspiration:
- It's your ffffaaaaauuuuuuullllllttttttttt.....
- Checklad:
- How do you know. Regardless of what would happen, somebody would die.
- Now that you are a shitty ghost-thing, what do you feel? Coldness? Sadness? Disappointment? Anger?
- I bet all of that. After all, you were the one who said, and I quote:
- "you're either incredibly clever or incredibly lucky.
- I'm more inclined to believe the former.
- Tell me, do you still believe Bobemmo is your only threat?"
- What if I am incredibly clever? Clever enough to outsmart you?
- Tell me honestly, did you believe I was a threat at all? Would you've thought that it would end like this? Getting out-smarted, out-played and killed by a b-b-b-bumbling fool and his schemes?
- Subject: S-S-Sorry
- Checklad:
- So, Aspiration is dead. Not the intended target, but it certainly made the falafel-Kowzz-insanity-aspiration (semi-)alliance weaker.
- I believe we can turn this around right now.
- Did anything noteworthy happen before I entered the attic? I was late due to an attempt to gather additional information, which failed...
- Bobemmo:
- I was also a little late to the attic, as I waited to group up with finalnwo beforehand, which slowed us down a little bit. I unfortunately don't have anything to share in terms of information, though I have a question for you.
- Why did you attack finalnwo? I understand you couldnt see who it really was with the mask on, but who did you think you were attacking?
- Checklad:
- Oh, I can't believe I didn't told you.
- There are a lot of people with masks going around. From what I've gathered at least four people had masks:
- Kowzz had one and used it early on but it was never confirmed whether it broke or not.
- Falafel had one on him, for two days now, and I tried to lure him to the attic (I tried to catch him up there, didn't work: hoped it would though). Probably still goes unused as insanity and him are allied, and they are two of three people that weren't in the attic.
- FinalNwo had one. I hoped I'd be able to recognize him with his mask, but it failed. Still, the original idea was he'd come in with the mask: keep his identity a secret, whilst the dirty work is done: help if necessary. I'd chase him away to make sure he wouldn't get targetted, reality turned out differently unfortunately.
- I had a slight idea there was another mask floating around: either owned by ctom42 or aspiration. Turned out aspiration had it.
- But why didn't you do something? You could've helped me with Kowzz..
- Checklad:
- I'm going to the workshop and hope there's something useful. You wanna come along?
- Subject: Day 5
- Checklad:
- Hmmm, not the way I expected it to happen.
- BTW, I'm seriously doubting if I'll get any chance to kill two people: my chances were slim from the start :'). Probably something to note down for next time maybe?
- Advocate:
- Aspirations death counts as one of yours as you were trying to kill him when FinalNwo did the deed.
- Checklad:
- Oh dayum, should've known this from the start, would've been a little bit easier on my mind.
- Advocate:
- Yeah, as long as you are one of the aggressors in a fight, you don't have to actually deliver the final blow.
- Checklad:
- what about Aspiration's items?
- Advocate:
- Well his room is currently locked, you could co-operate with someone to force it open or hope that someone has a way to open a locked door ...
- As for the stuff on his person, maybe one of the people you left behind in the attic looted it? Maybe he wasn't carrying anything, or maybe valuable loot is awaiting the next person in there ...
- Checklad:
- Yet there is no way to go back to the attic, is there?
- Advocate:
- Is there a rule saying that? I don't see one .... kuhihihi
- Checklad:
- God Advocate, if it weren't for the fact that you brew a nice cup of tea and are the only person I can talk to without worrying, otherwise I wouldn't bother actually coming here.
- Advocate:
- Aww thanks, but it's past 8pm now so tea is out and wine is in.
- Just to clarify your options, you only have time to search one room, but you can visit others too. Just remember that such actions have consequences, you may be slow to the room you want to search and you may not be the only one wandering the halls ...
- Checklad:
- Uh, is that one of those 'stretch the rules as much as possible without breaking them' things? xD
- Also, I promised I'd send you a part of all the intrigue that's going on, here's a part between me and FinalNwo about what happened in the attic. (edited for read-ability):
- Checklad:
- About what happened, I'm not sure whether to congratulate you or not. You did excellent, but I messed up: I'm seriously starting to jump at my own shadow. I only intended to try and 'chase' you away again. However, you shouldn't worry: this only proved one thing to me for sure: you're a reliable ally, and I intend to stick to your side. Falafel and Insanity are at large, but Aspiration is no more, Kowzz's intentions have been revealed as well.
- FinalNwo:
- Well, thank you, but you should watch out. I even told you, I was coming in with a mask... Anyways, I don't know about Kowzz, enlighten me.
- Advocate:
- Oh man, that's brilliant. Thanks for that.
- By the way, you saying "I consider anyone in a mask my enemy" really made today possible, otherwise there could have been up to 3 guys in that room wearing masks, unsure who to attack. You were great as a wild card, attacking anyone in a mask :D
- Checklad:
- It gets even better, because I pretty much set it all up (at least, for it to happen in the attic, I'm gonna claim full credit here.)
- I told falafel and Insanity seperately that I would go to the attic, if they would follow me so we could watch each other's backs (hoped one of them would come and get backstabbed, still..) for different 'reasons'.
- this probably gave them reason to try and get Kowzz and Aspiration to the attic (I knew Kowzz was allied with them, and Aspiration seemed an idiot if he wasn't allied with them as well.). Because I wasn't directly hostile to them.
- Told Aspiration I trusted him with 'information' about whom my 'enemies' where (leaving out the masked ones, aspiration, but adding Bobemmo.)
- Convinced Bobemmo to come with me to the attic to try and catch falafel and/or Insanity off guard, telling him I had another person who'd come with us (I didn't). Despite the rough start, Bobemmo is one of my closest allies!
- Convinced Cornetto to come with me to the attic because I 'got a clue the attic would be important', telling him I'm more interested in helping him and keeping away from the others. Told him aspiration, falafel and/or insanity would follow me to the attic. Note: despite the lie about the source, Cornetto is one of my three major allies.
- Paid FinalNwo to use his mask and come to the attic, he seemed reluctant at first when I told him I had another ally coming with me, (I didn't at this point). After an hour, Cornetto agreed to come and I said to FinalNwo that Cornetto was that ally and also wary of Insanity and falafel.
- I left ctom42 mostly alone when it came to the attic: he provides the perfect neutral information source and is very reliable to me: top three ally for sure.
- Made sure to tell you that all possibilities would give me something: Direct enemies, Bobemmo without any other enemies, masked people and the gun. (The only suprise was the sword & sword armour)
- At least, this is from my perspective :') Took me the entire time between yesterday's event and the 'day of the attic' to get all of this.
- Advocate:
- And here I am reading some of the other player's dairies about how you're just a pawn in their game. Little do they realise ...
- Checklad:
- I think how I acted the first couple of days really helped my case. Cornetto man knows the most about my playstyle (other than that I kill on purpose), but he's willing to leave me alone and gather information so long as I keep him out of harm's way.
- Checklad:
- Might as well give my information now, since I won't have any time anymore today, until after the next event.
- I wish to go to the workshop (in hopes of finding anything useful, especially weapons). After I made sure there's nothing of value left, I wish to go to the attic again and check Aspiration's body.
- Should I enter combat, I wish to use my stick
- Allies: Bobemmo, Cornetto_Man, ctom42, Finalnwo Enemies: falafel, insanity Neutral: Kowzz
- That's all folks
- Checklad:
- Also, could please provide me a little bit of leeway with the 'checking Aspiration's body' because it's bloody tough as a murderer to get anything done.
- Advocate:
- That relies on aspiration's body actually being there ;p But yeah, you'll have time to search him (if he's there) as well as the workshop.
- Day 5 Events:
- As the day comes to a close, you see Insanity sitting in a corner, an eye on the main door, seemingly awaiting the return of someone. The clang of the door closing seems to send a shudder down her spine.
- You're hungry and head over to the stack of meat that's been so graciously provided by your host. Falafel, Bobemmo, and FinalNwo are already tucking in. You take a closer look at the food, and notice a hair that you try to pull out. You realise that the hair is actually a thread connected to a small fragment of clothing. You shudder and return to your room, you won't be eating tonight.
- In the morning you mill around with the other players in the common room. As the clang announces the start of the day you head out once more. FinalNwo rushing ahead and out of sight. You walk with Cornetto_Man and Bobemmo to the work shop. Inside the room you see something that belongs in another century, the era of the Inquisition perhaps. A series of unpleasant looking devices are arranged around the room. You examine a particularly nasty item that resembles a bear trap, but it falls to pieces as you pick it up. It would appear the welding was rather poorly done. The same seems to be true of the other devices, fearsome in appearance but ultimately harmless.
- Before you can begin a proper search for anything useful you hear footsteps approach the room. You turn alongside Cornetto_Man and Bobemmo to see FinalNwo step in, an angry scowl on his face. He has a switchknife in his hand, and he glares at each of you. With his free hand he holds his gut. He appears to be in pain.
- You step towards him, "are you alright?"
- FinalNwo growls back, "back off," and you quickly comply.
- FinalNwo steps into the room and staggers to the floor, his legs unable to hold his weight. He leans back and rests himself a nearby table, motionless. It doesn't appear much else is going to occur so you return to searching the room, finding a token and a tracking device. Before heading back to the common area you break apart a table, making yourself an improvised club.
- As some point on the way back you manage to quietly slip away from your companions and head over to the attic. You step within and see aspirations body on the far floor, blood pooled around him. As you walk towards him you notice something that wasn't here last night, footsteps, bloody footsteps. They lead away from aspiration's body. Damn, it appears someone else got here first. You give the body a quick search but don't find anything. You curse and return to the common room.
- You are currently unharmed, with a default combat rating of 3.
- You are currently carrying:
- 6 tokens: the player who has completed their secret objective and has the most of these wins the game.
- Wooden stick: +1 combat rating. Cracked, it will only survive one more fight.
- Wooden stick: +1 combat rating (can be used in 2 fights)
- Tracker: tells you which room each of the players went to
- Day 6:
- Subject: Day 2
- Checklad:
- Alright, what the hell happened to you?
- FinalNwo:
- I don't really know. I've been eating that meat, but it seems like it wasn't the cause of it... Oh well, I guess I'll just don't move for a while.
- Checklad:
- There's something massively wrong with you, that much is clear.
- Did you get attacked? Did something happen before you joined us? Anything at all?
- I need to know, we're so close and I don't intend to let any of my friends die: not now.
- FinalNwo:
- No, nothing in particular. I just went to Aspiration's corpse in the attic. However, "that" happened way before the rooms were accessible, so I don't think this was the cause, either...
- Checklad:
- Wait, you went to Aspiration's corpse? Was there anything at all? A hint, his items, anything?
- Because in fact, I went to check his corpse as well: but there was nothing but bloody footprints, were they there before you came in?
- What you mean with 'that'? Your condition? Or you eating meat?
- FinalNwo:
- Nothing, literally nothing. He was just lying there. I haven't seen any footprints.. Maybe it was me, but I think you were there earlier, since you already were in the workshop, when I joined.
- And yeah, I mean my condition, I haven't been feeling well since morning. It's neither the meat, nor the happenings in the evening. (Note: the room search stuff)
- Checklad:
- Actually, I went to the attic after searching the workshop: I went there together with Cornetto_Man because I promised to keep an eye on him: he seems to be unto something. Found it odd that there were footprints and no items left whatsoever, I don't mind not having them but I had hoped to find something helpful for today.
- Since you were holding your weapon, you're sure you didn't fight something? The not feeling well I can understand because of the meat, which was obviously Lishy's: I find a piece of his clothing in there...
- FinalNwo:
- Like I said, I already had this bad feeling before I ate the meat. And I probably was one of the first figuring out it was Lishy, because I even heard it happen the night before this.
- You overlooked a token in the workshop, so I took it, if you don't mind. And no, I didn't fight anything, but I always have my knife out when exploring. I might get ambushed, you know.
- Checklad:
- Honestly, I don't even bother to keep track of the tokens: remember, I paid you two tokens just yesterday? I intend to survive, not hoard, but I can't blame you for doing so: who knows what purpose they serve.
- Wait a minute.
- Didn't Advocate state that a poison pill existed? It's pretty much known that you're the one who killed Aspiration. Could be one of Aspiration's allies did it, I wouldn't be suprised: they consider you their prime target I bet.
- FinalNwo:
- Well, the tokens are important for those, who have completed their objective, so why wouldn't I try to get as many as possible?
- That might be so, but.... wait a minute! I think I get it. Falafel has a lockpick, so he might have been in my room and fed me this pill while I was sleeping.
- Checklad:
- Crap. I have no idea whether those pills are lethal, or how he got a pill in the first place: maybe he worked together with somebody who had a pill? But the lockpick part is obvious, we both know that he had one.
- FinalNwo:
- I don't know. We will see that, I guess. There is no antidote anyways, as far as I know.
- Checklad:
- Seems you're at the very least not the only one.
- FinalNwo:
- Yeah, I love it.
- Checklad:
- I don't know what exactly happened or how, but it's great~
- Seems ctom is either bluffing that he and falafel attacked, or he was managed to beat him up after falafel ambushed him with a mask on.
- That should mean the last mask is no more...
- If only I could get reliable information from either of them right now.
- FinalNwo:
- Yeah, same here. It's the last day, so I don't think anyone is giving out anything at this point.
- Checklad:
- you'd be suprised sometimes.
- Checklad:
- FinalNwo, I believe the time is now. You want to help me finish falafel once and for all? Me, Cornetto and Bobemmo believe it is time. Bobemmo even agreed (through Cornetto) to leave his desire to end me to take care of falafel after he was betrayed by her two days ago.
- Unfortunately, we'll also have to deal with ctom. But that shouldn't be a problem with the four of us. I have reason to believe ctom has finished his objective and feels that he can win: even Cornetto_Man believes that he should be stopped. He's too dangerous right now.
- It seems Insanity has truely ditched him after what happened yesterday.
- Kowzz is the biggest question mark at this moment, unfortunately.
- FinalNwo:
- Sorry, but no. I'm not interested in cooperating anymore. This is the last day, and it's either win or die. And since only one person can survive, it doesn't matter if I have allies or not. Now, if you excuse me...
- Subject: ...
- Aspiration:
- You awake in the night to what sounds like tapping.
- "Yoooouuuu kiilllllledd meeeee."
- You hope that it's just a hallucination brought on by the stress. That has to be it.
- Checklad:
- Bah, it's as though this is my first kill all over again.
- Would you just leave me alone. Besides, I didn't kill you: FinalNwo did. Then again, I was the one who set it up..
- Subject: the Attic
- Checklad:
- You were attacked by Falafel?
- Would you be interested in telling me, if I told you whatever you want to know (if I have that information that is.)?
- Subject: Let's aid one another one more time.
- Checklad:
- Considering everything that has happened, neither of us seem to be particularly safe..
- Let's stick together, this one last time: I haven't completed my objective in the end, and it's too late now. Have you? If so, I'd be more than willing to aid you in survival.
- Falafel:
- There's no way for me to know if I completed my objective or not. I can know only when this game is over. If I did complete it, I guess I need tokens kind of bad. But it's not like I'm gonna win anyway.
- ...Fuck, I don't even know what I'm supposed to do now.
- Let me know what you've got in mind. I guess we can might as well work together.
- Checklad:
- Well I was hoping you'd have something.
- If you need tokens, I've got a mere three tokens and I'm willing to give them to you before this is all over, but only if we stick together.. Since I've not completed my objective; don't have the capabilities to complete it and I've got only three tokens.. My chances of winning are slim,
- I might as well try and let somebody that actually has a chance to win and has always been helpful to me win.
- Falafel:
- Thanks. Really appreciate that.
- I guess... well, I guess we can try to plan something.
- From the instructions there's only gonna be one room without tokens. Doubtful anyone will tell us where they're going. Best to just pick some room at random and hope for luck.
- So who cleaned out your room? Insanity? I bet it was Insanity...
- Checklad:
- I don't know, still don't, and probably will never know..
- Cornetto said he'try and find out some things, I'm hoping he finds something.. Also hoped, you'd have some idea, but seems to not be the case.
- We're both not that well off are we? You're wounded and I'm lost..
- Falafel:
- Got... you got any tools maybe, in your disposal?
- Falafel:
- Not all hope is lost. Not... not just yet.
- Checklad:
- Any tools? Barely got anyhing left, seems I've always picked the wrong rooms or something: I have barely any tokens and only a broken wooden stick, which doesn't help at all since I'm weak. That's it.
- Falafel:
- Let's think about what we can do with that stick. Might not be as useless as we think. Do you know where anyone is planning on going? Anyone tell you anything at all?
- Oh, and mind passing me the tokens? Rather hide them now while there's still time...
- Falafel:
- Okay. Cornetto Man is gonna be on our side tonight. That's already three people, and that's a lot more than anyone else is gonna be getting.
- If we work together, we're gonna be safe.
- I need to stash the tokens. Tell if you heard anything about what anyone else is planning to do. We can still be fine if we're smart.
- Checklad:
- I'll give you the tokens the moment I know that I can't help you any further, it's the only security that I have right now..
- I have no idea, most people refuse to tell me anything..
- I'm probably going to the green room, but I have nothing to back it up..
- Falafel:
- You, me and Cornetto are going together as allies. I really need to stash those tokens before we go. If you don't need them, they will help out a lot. Three people working together and carrying weapons should be as safe as we could possibly be.
- Checklad:
- Tell you what, I'll give you two of my tokens and keep my lucky token until it's time to part with it.
- Falafel:
- ...Wait, what? Do you realize I've already gotten you a place in the strongest alliance possible tonight? Did you lie to me? Again?
- Give me the tokens you said you don't need anymore, and we'll all go together and be absolutely safe.
- Do you think you'll be better off alone with a broken stick against Kowzz and his sword, or Insanity and her two knives, or whoever the fuck it is that has the gun?
- I don't have patience for this. Isn't it time you started trusting your allies a little? I had Aspiration killed because you said he was after you. What more do you need?
- Checklad:
- I'M SCARED, OK?
- I'm scared of being betrayed, I'm scared of being left alone, I'm scared of everything.
- I've been betrayed before: twice! I've been left alone more times than I can imagine, just take these two tokens; my aid and my life, but give me this one true security.
- All I want is to not be left behind anymore.
- Falafel:
- This alliance is the best thing anyone could possibly get. Think about it.
- Kowzz is completely obsessed with whatever the fuck it is. Insanity has no allies and nobody will ever trust her. FinalNwo is sick. ctom42 isn't likely to have a large group around him. Bobemmo lacks initiative.
- I also arranged for anyone I could to agree to not attack us. There is no safer position to be in. I can't deal with trust issues now. You're just going to have to put your faith in me. By the way, I have to do a little something before I join you and Cornetto Man, but I will absolutely be there. After all, I too am safest in this alliance. I will absolutely not leave you behind.
- Falafel:
- I'd rather we just got it out of the way.
- Anyway, you are in the alliance. We will be going to the Purple Room. Remember, Purple! I might show up a bit late but I am NOT abandoning you. I have to pick something up first.
- I know you are scared but I need you just as much as you need me. I'm sick and hurt and allies are hard to come by tonight, so I won't be doing something crazy like abandoning you just so I can get myself killed.
- Checklad:
- Alright, alright, I trust you. Here's my last token, the lucky one: the one that got me through everyting...
- Purple? Ok, gots it. Why though?
- You sure you want to go somewhere without me despite being hurt and sick? Seems dangerous.
- Falafel:
- Why the purple? There's no special reason to be honest. I think ctom42 won't be going there, and there's a good chance he'll have the gun. Purple is safest in that respect. If Kowzz is there with the sword, we'll be able to beat him easily.
- And I don't really like doing it either, but it has to be done. It will only take me a short while, don't worry.
- Subject: S-S-Sorry
- Checklad:
- Seems FinalNwo got poisoned, and falafel seems to be as well...
- How ye doing? Found any information that we could use?
- Bobemmo:
- Nothing, unfortunately. I've got a few weapons, but they're little more than sticks compared with some of the things other people have. I also have a mask, but considering the people who wear them usually end up worse off, I don't really need it.
- I'll trade it to you for a token, if you like.
- Checklad:
- Eh might as well, considering I have so few tokens..
- To think that I'd be the one ending up with a masker, after what happened in the attic..
- Checklad:
- Alright Bobemmo, you remember Ctom? Of course you do!
- Well he really is still after you it seems, and he's trying to suck information out of me without any repayment: going so far as threatening me.
- I say we take care of him, Cornetto_man agrees that ctom is way too suspicious in comparison to how he played before: and he never makes these kind of direct statements.
- Are you in?
- Checklad:
- One last thing: I'm going to the green room. Perhaps you'll come along?
- Bobemmo:
- Do you have any reason in particular to choose the green room? I'm personally finding it very difficult to decide, I can't help but feel as though the rooms I chose not to visit in the past days were the ones with the clues in them.
- Ctom is certainly suspicious, but is he really dangerous? There's only this one day left, and while I'd love to get back at him for his anger towards me, is it really worth the lost opportunity to find tokens? Do you even know which room he will visit?
- Checklad:
- Green is an interesting color, non? I mean, sure red would be an obvious choice for Advocate's favorite color, as it's associated with blood. However, green accentuates red: it makes red a stronger color, it makes the blood so much more 'lovely'.
- That's the only bit of logic I have.
- I very much feel the same way about the whole clues part: I only know FinalNwo and ctom are acting suspicious, so they must know something. But they refuse to share anything. However, Ctom seems VERY willing to kill you: specifically you. So we could use that.
- Who said we'll lose the opportunity for tokens? We'll strike at him together as soon as we get the chance, and gather the tokens in the rom we go to. The hallways are long, confusing and dark: I'm suprised nobody ever bothered to do so.
- Similiarly, I think FinalNwo has the hat. Simply because he's cocksure that whatever will happen, he'll be golden.
- The last person I have my doubts about is in fact falafel, but so long as I can trust you it'll be fine: falafel is sick and weak. I might even think we can take him on together, even after ctom, but that's an if. I'll see what room he goes to, and inform you as soon as possible.
- Checklad:
- Scratch that, falafel and cornetto are going to the purple room. I have no reason to believe they woud lie, and it seems they have at least some idea.. Come with me and we can take at least one person of your list at the first day: falafel. Along with ctom if we're quick.
- So we'll first get rid of ctom: which'll be easy since he wants to get rid of you for what happened. Then we'll chase after or ambuse falafel near the purple room. Falafel is sick and wounded, not to mention that Cornetto won't even bother to defend falafel: he never defended anybody, so why would he do it now?
- We can't afford to make mistakes, you with me?
- Bobemmo:
- I don't think I trust in your intuition about the room colours enough. It's enough of a leap of logic that it may as well be totally random, and that's not good enough for me. Same with the hat: I personally think it's Insanity that has it, or maybe ctom. But again, it's just wild conjecture at this point since few people are even willing to talk to me.
- I don't plan on coming with you to the green room, I have my own plans for this day. If we do end up in the same room, though, for whatever reason, I'll help you out in defending yourself if you need the help.
- Bobemmo:
- It all just seems way too convenient for me. On the last day, when there are no repercussions for lying, why would anyone tell the truth? Any attempts to talk a certain person into a certain room must be taken with utmost suspicion. It's now the final chance for anyone to make their move, and it's still anyone's game.
- Out of respect for our alliance in the past few days, I won't tell anyone else of your plans, but I don't intend on following along with them either.
- Checklad:
- You do realise that ctom is seriously going after you, yes? I know, because he doesn't know we are allies, and wanted me to help him: I don't intend to do so, he's been lying to me for a long time and demands a lot from me. I rather help my ally rather than somebody whom might be my ally.
- The truth? Let me tell you at least something regarding the truth: I've been telling you the truth because I can trust you, yes?
- Cornetto and I have been sharing quite a bit of, truthful, information for a long time now. I have zero reason to doubt Cornetto, after everything; falafel is indeed a liar: has lied before. But he is no threat to neither me or you since he's sick and wounded.
- It saddens me to see you not intending to follow this plan, not even the one directly concerning you and your potential demise through ctom (whom has strong weapons from the greenhouse, I might add)..
- I am glad that you and I can still trust one another enough to keep our relationship a secret.
- Are you sure you do not wish to at least get rid of ctom?
- Bobemmo:
- What happens to ctom at this point is, quite honestly, of no concern to me. If he truly is out to get me, trying to attack him will provide no benefit to me, yet plenty of risk.
- Checklad:
- Don't ask me why he wants to attack you, I do not know: I can't read minds! Then again, why have we attacked each other in the beginning: plenty of risk was involved as well..
- Regardless, I wish you the best: I've done everything I could to help you now. Should I see ctom attacking you, I intend to keep my promise and help you. I wish you the best of luck then.
- Subject: A-A-All-Alliance?
- Checklad:
- Well turned out the workshop wasn't that useful after all, at least we're still alive.
- FinalNwo is not feeling well, turned out he went to the attic: whatever was there, he's not willing to share it.
- Falafel told me ctom42 has the gun now, I'm fairly certain this is just a weak attempt at trying to get me to mistrust him. Yet I have no reason to even fear ctom42, he's never been a threat and seems content with leaving us alone and being left alone.
- Kowzz's goal seems to be indeed to get as many enemies as possible.
- What should we do?
- Cornetto:
- I think the most important thing is to stick together. We can make it through the last day. We will have to use of every contact to try and discover which door to go through.
- I think ctom is okay too. He and I have an agreement in place already.
- I've suspected it for awhile now but I guess it's true we can visit any room.
- I have an idea who stole the hat but I'll investigate a little more first.
- We can do this my friend.
- Checklad:
- I'm fairly certain it's FinalNwo: with him hiding whatever he found in the attic. Then again, I (we) better not take any risks..
- Ctom has always been ok, for somebody, like me, who seems to be on bad terms with at least half of the people here ctom never bothered me.
- It's true, sometimes you have to ask the advocate for verification and she's an honorable host: she will answer your question one way or another.
- I have a, ridiculous, idea that her favorite colour is green: she likes blood yes? Blood is red, but that would be too obvious, but what color makes the red more powerful? Green.
- It's iffy, but it's something.
- Cornetto:
- In any case I have opportunity to be sure. I know of another player who wasn't where they were supposed to be. I'll ask around I don't think anyone wants to get it wrong.
- Checklad:
- Alright, I'll leave you to it. You're not only better at collecting information (for the most part), you're neutral with almost everybody (at worst), I think? So shouldn't be too hard: the only people that I would be able to ask either keep information away from me or have no legitimate way of knowing.
- However, I am still capable of protecting you this one last time, so I'll hear about it!
- I'll do some general snooping around, as usual.
- Checklad:
- Interesting conversation in the main room, perhaps you could probe it a bit?
- Seems ctom is either bluffing that he and falafel attacked, or he was managed to beat him up after falafel ambushed him with a mask on.
- That should mean the last mask is no more...
- Cornetto:
- Well I have a mask in my possession so there's still one. I haven't found use for it yet and probably won't. Betrayal isn't my thing.
- I'm really glad I didn't eat that meat.
- Checklad:
- Same here.
- Turns out Bobemmo has one, he's willing to give it to me for a token: accepted the offer, it's better to get rid of those masks.
- The only use it may have is that I use it to weaken somebody that might stop us without being caught, but I wouldn't know if it's worth the risk.
- Cornetto:
- Honestly don't know if it's worth it.
- May I enquire if you have completed your objective. If you don't want to answer you don't have to. I have not finished mine.
- Checklad:
- Nope, not finished: but the chance to complete it were pretty much 0% after the second day..
- So I'm trying to survive and protect people whom I feel deserve it the most: you being one of them, or rather, the only one whom I admit this too, so that's saying something I suppose.
- It's worth it from my point of view: no masks should be in play other than our two, or we're extremely unlucky.
- I don't think I'm gonna use it, since as Bobemmo mentioned: masks mean trouble. But the idea that that's one variability secured is something to be cherished when surrounded by that much uncertainty.
- You found anything interesting by now?
- Cornetto:
- Wether I make it through or not now depends on if certain others accomplish their tasks. They should still have more tokens than me.
- In any case the doors don't seem to be opening until later tomorrow so I shall continue my investigations. Ctom seems to know something but is not happy with my information.
- Checklad:
- Ctom is certainly acting suspicious.
- He's not been replying to any questions today and been very short in answering my questions from yesterday..
- Falafel claims he has the gun, but so far almost anything Falafel said turned out to be not true..
- Cornetto:
- Unfortunately I can't confirm that. I doubt he'll tell me. He claims to have completed his objective already but I have my doubts.
- Checklad:
- Hm, it's odd that ctom has changed his otherwise so careful and neutral stance.
- I know he's got at least one gardening tool as a weapon, so his bluff in the main thread is probably true. However, I have no idea what happened between ctom and falafel.
- Have you been in contact with insanity or kowzz? I haven't, because they won't talk with me, perhaps they know something.
- Cornetto:
- I've been in contact with Insanity. I don't like Kowzz. He was less than helpful with me earlier in this game. Which is why I've gone out of my way to bring him down. He is the only player I've gone to such lengths for. My provocation in front of everyone would make him even less forward.
- Checklad:
- Kowzz is pretty much a problem, he's still allied with the pesky Insanity whom eludes me.
- Your provocation? I barely noticed between everything that happened! You're really conservative aren't you? I may be able to fix the Kowzz issue: make sure he's no threat with that sword of us, if you want.
- permalinkfull comments
- Checklad:
- of his*
- Cornetto:
- I don't think Kowzz's sword will bother me. If you want to do something anyway be my guest. As long as you don't do anything reckless. We're close now.
- Checklad:
- I will not, I'll test the waters a bit, see if I can get any reactions unlocked. But I don't intend to die, don't you worry.
- Cornetto:
- Excellent. Good luck.
- I'll be in contact again tomorrow with what I learn.
- Checklad:
- Learned anything by now?
- It seems you and falafel struck a deal, yes?
- Cornetto:
- From what I've found Insanity seems like the most likely thief. As for the door as you've said we've reached a deal. The three of us will head for the purple door.
- Checklad:
- alright, I have some slight doubts about falafel considering everything. But I trust you above anyone else, perhaps even more than myself, and he seems quite desperate.
- Insanity the thief? Why?
- Cornetto:
- I think we should be wary of Falefel but I doesn't hurt to bring him with us. Maybe we should leave him neutral in case he tries something.
- As for Insanity. She and FinalNwo were the only two who went where they weren't supposed to. I found X-ray goggles yesterday and used them on FinalNwo. He didn't have the hat.
- The only way we can win this game at this point is to guess this room right. If we get the tokens then we have a chance. I think there are a couple of people with more tokens than me.
- Checklad:
- Alright, it certainly helps that falafel is sick and wounded: shouldn't be a big problem should push come to shove.
- Unfortunately, I will be a bit pre-occupied before I go to the purple room: ctom wants me to help him with something he's been wanting to do since day two, so try to keep everything running smoothly until I come back and we've, or right you've, got this.
- Cornetto:
- Try not to get yourself killed. I think I may need your help in this round.
- Checklad:
- I'm doing my best.
- Subject: The Workroom
- alles uitvouwenalles samenvouwen
- Ctom:
- Checklad my dear boy! I apologize for earlier, that was rather rude of me. I've just got so much pent up stress lately, I'm sure you know how it is.
- Anyway I was wondering if you could enlighten me as to the events that took place in the workroom today?
- Checklad:
- Not a lot happened: FinalNwo is hiding something and is sick. There was crap all to be found in the workroom: everything broke apart the moment you touched it..
- What about you? Seems you fought with falafel?
- Also, you seem to still be after Bobemmo. What if I tell you that I want to get rid of him as well? Would you be willing to team up and finish him off on this last day?
- Ctom:
- I would. I don't think I have much shot of winning anyway. If I'm going to die here, it's certainly not going to be while he is still alive.
- Checklad:
- I very much agree. Let's attack him as soon as possible, I highly doubt anyone would be willing to help him at this last stage.
- Ctom:
- I am in agreement, but first I must confirm something. I can not trust anyone on this final day unless I know what they are truly after.
- What is your objective? Can you show me your paper?
- Checklad:
- It says:
- "Keep steady alliances with at least five other people for two days straight; injure the first person to attack you, and collect as many tokens as possible."
- Well, let's just say I've been quite unlucky with keeping up alliances and my tokens can be counted on one hand: I have nothing to lose by helping others, not to mention that I can at least fulfill part of my objective considering Bobemmo attacked me the first ánd second day.
- Ctom:
- Looks like I cannot trust you after all. No goal is that complex, nor does nay mention tokens, after all we all want the tokens.
- Show me the paper
- Ctom:
- A clever ruse. Brown pen was not used for this game, all the notes are in Green Crayon. Do not think you can fool me so easily. It would be unwise to make enemies at this late hour.
- Let me make something clear, I have no intention on interfering with your goal, unless it directly threatens my safety. I also have no intention of harming you if you have already completed your goal. But pull another stunt like this and you will regret it.
- Checklad:
- Whomever said goals can't be complex? You think I like this goal of mine? What do you mean with nor does nay mention tokens?
- Not to mention that I'm risking my life here the last day to help you with Bobemmo, well I guess it helps me too..
- Checklad:
- Green crayon? For real? I don't intend to make any enemies, only take care of one, and you're the only help I have with this.
- Even if you somehow refuse to believe the bloody goal that I was given, I do not intend to harm you either: regardless of goal, hell I didn't even bother to ask because I trust your judgement that you and I aren't and shouldn't be enemies.
- Ctom:
- Are you going to show your true objective or not. You have become mighty suspicious. Better to clear the air than to keep backing yourself into a corner.
- Checklad:
- Fine. Here is the big secret: I had to kill someone, go ahead: you can ask the Advocate if I had to kill people to complete my objective, it's true.
- I do not know whether I have completed my objective, as I was involved in the killing of aspiration, though I did not deal the kiling blow: FinalNwo did. All I did was freak out and attack any masked figure..
- So to make sure I did complete my objective, I intended to ally with somebody who was willing to take down Bobemmo with me: quite simple, really. My initial plan was to try and get somebody from his 'list' to help me with him. Kowzz refused: he didn't trust me at all; falafel is a coward because he's sick and wounded.
- Then I remembered that you held a vendetta against him, so why not try to team up on this last day? You and I might not have always been true close allies, but unlike falafel and Kowzz, I held at least some kind of positive relationship with you. Not to mention the fact that you are heavily armed, unlike me, you would and still can be, a great help with this. If you don't want to help me, do it for the vendetta you hold against Bobemmo: the only man that truely seems to want to kill others.
- I'll hear it, this is the truth: nothing but the truth. I can't tell anything else anymore because there is nothing else left to tell, at least from my part.
- Ctom:
- I TOLD YOU NOT TO LIE. DO YOU WANT ME TO KILL YOU. YOU HAVE ONE FINAL CHANCE BEFORE MY WRATH FOR BOBEMMO TURNS ON YOU INSTEAD. SHOW ME YOUR TRUE PAPER. ONE THAT HAS AN OBJECTIVE THAT ACTUALLY EXISTS. OTHERWISE IT'S HUNTING TIME!
- Checklad:
- Why would I bloody bother to try and lie twice? You take me for an idiot?
- Regardless, I'll let advocate show you the true paper. The reason I didn't want to is because I bloody don't want a witchhunt to start against me: that's why.
- Ctom:
- Can I take this as you having sent a message to her telling her to show me?
- Ctom:
- Now was that so hard. You see the reason I thought you were lying was because you need to kill 2 players, and I knew that was the goal.
- We have a deal now.
- Checklad:
- Jesus christ man, you're going to kill me through sheer pressure here. It better pay off, because I want Bobemmo gone: nothing else. The tokens are useless to me..
- Subject: Day 6
- Checklad:
- I give Bobemmo a token for his mask.
- Checklad:
- I think this is the first time I felt bad for lying..
- Advocate:
- Sounds like he'll follow you if you want to lead him to his death somewhere ;p
- Checklad:
- I feel kind of bad though, he and I have been thick as water as far as I know. We've stuck together and shared SO much information.
- Advocate:
- Trade accepted.
- Checklad:
- "My meal...that--that was my meal. It was my meal, mine by rights! H-how could you? It was my food! You--and, and to think you call yourself a, a what, a gracious host? YOU ARE NO HOST!"
- Oh dayum, he did not just say that!
- Well I'm going to bed, so that's one less person you have to worry about for like, 9 hours, byebye for now .o/
- Advocate:
- The funny thing is, it may not have been the food that poisoned him! ;p
- Checklad:
- Yup, figured that one out immediately because FinalNwo was the only one not feeling well. Poison pill, probably falafel is involved due to his lockpick.
- Time to set my last schemes in motion, if you'd excuse me.
- Checklad:
- Doing the finishing touches of my second big scheme, please bear with me
- I give falafel two tokens, and the 'security' (hint hint) that I give him one more token before everything ends.
- But before that, would you be so kind as to help me, hm, convince a suspicious man?
- Ctom42 wants to know my objective through you, and I lied about my objective (for obvious reasons). More specifically, he wants you to give him the paper objective. Would be a shame if I used my crayons and a different piece of paper now would it?
- I think you and I can come to an agreement, after all are you not entertained by my antics? I am one of your beloved murderers after all. So here's my 'objective paper', if you would be so kind as to give ctom42 it, I'd promise you the biggest show of your (eternal?) life.
- "Keep steady alliances with at least five other people for two days straight; injure the first person to attack you, and collect as many tokens as possible."
- Advocate:
- Someone in the common room has paper and a green crayon that would have proved useful here.
- Without that I can give him a fake note but it won't be written in green crayon. He may notice.
- Checklad:
- whomever said I was talking about green crayon~ I've been writing my diary with brown yes?
- He may notice, he may not: I don't know. But I did what he demanded: that you give him my objective paper: he never asked for the proper, truthful paper.
- Advocate:
- Haha, got it
- Checklad
- hey, I need something here.
- Murderers have it difficult enough as it is, I think!
- I give falafel one more token.
- Alright give ctom42 my actual objective paper. He can barely do shit by now.
- I'm gonna write my goals now: check the next message.
- Advocate:
- Go go go, you're the last one :)
- Checklad:
- Alright, here goes:
- Allies: Bobemmo, Cornetto_Man, Falafel, Ctom42 Enemies: Specific on the situation Neutral: FinalNwo, Insanity, Kowzz
- Whispered name: none, I provide enough entertainment for my gratious host. Chosen room: Purple room. I'd chose the green room because green accentuates the color of red(blood), but unfortunately things turned out differently.
- Alright:
- I wish to immediately leave for the hallways: should Bobemmo and Ctom42 meet and fight in the hallways, I intend to wear my mask and help Bobemmo with one stick (the one with two uses). If Ctom42 dies, I intend to search his body and take anything of value.
- Should I and Bobemmo manage to kill Ctom42, I intend to charge to the purple room: if I see falafel without an ally, other than Cornetto, I wish to kill him: in the hallways I wish to try and ambush him (if I still have my mask, I'll still wear it). In the room itself, should falafel and cornetto be present, I'll try and kill falafel with both sticks.
- Should I never meet falafel (i.e. I haven't been able to try and kill him), I intend to kill Cornetto_man: but only if he and I are alone and I'm 100% certain that's the case. I'll use both sticks in that case.
- Should I be alone with only one person, I intend to try and kill him with both sticks.
- Should Cornetto be attacked, I intend to help him.
- I think that's it.
