See alan, it works. You play this way enough and they tend to leave you alone on the expectation you will lead the village down the wrong road. Very soon no one will kill you, trust me

Maybe LSG is onto something here. Maybe AlanT was actually on track with something so they killed him.
I'mm gonna review his posts. |

I tend to believe path and hoops with the knowledge i have. If they had claimed it was another player i wouldnt, but what they claimed sits well with me.

I should probably also mention that I wasn't necessarily voting for DT because he has been quiet, but more because I hadn't gotten a feel for him either way yet. I tend to not remember who has said much and who has said little, but I do try to note impressions I have, and I didn't have one of him yet.

and i find it hard in these bigger games still to keep track of people and keep stuff straight.
i might go with a repeat of my vote for ntndeacon (i did end up voting for him right?) He still hasn't brought much to the table, or even responded to the fact he was in 3rd place at lynch I believe. |

I love comments like these. Either you know something and are trying to be subtle, or you see Hoops and Path gaining trust with their conversation and you are trying to jump into that. I think you are pretty unique in being able to put yourself in both extremes of the trust spectrum at the same time. |

Anyone else have any knowledge from last night other than Blade, hoops, and path? There's got to be more night action than that.
The only thing I do at night is sit in my room and marvel at how wonderful and lucky I am to be French. |

I'm perplexed that the only night actions seem to revolve around the same type of activity, when I assumed my event would be a one-off.
If there isn't more information forthcoming, then I guess I'll try to discern some direction from the vote yesterday. But it is going to be only a little bit less random than my vote yesterday, which went on the now-cleared marksman. |

I have absolutely no knowledge of path, or about the actions hoops and path took last night. My knowledge is independent of those events, and hoopsguy's involvement in both is purely coincidental

So it appears that the receipt of the poisoned wine with Fouts' name is being totally discounted as a red herring? Anyone think differently?
I don't distrust him ATM, but I'm not sure we should just throw that piece of information away.

A couple of questions I have when thinking about the "visitors" for hoops and path last night:
- I'm assuming our barracks is guarded, so how did they get in? Were they snuck in, or did they have the blessing of someone higher up? (I'm not accusing anyone, I'm more or less thinking out loud) - Was their mission to keep hoops and path from interfering with the murders of Alan and Izulde, or were they sent to protect them (sort of like bizzarro bodyguards)? These couple be pointless questions, but it's what's running through my mind at the moment. I'm curious to see if this was a one time event, or if it will be happening again tonight. |

I'm not ignoring it, but I'm not giving it much stock, either. It feels a little too obvious to me. Throw in the murder of Izulde and it seems like overkill on a set-up job. |

I could answer both of those from my standpoint, but I don't think it serves any good. We might be able to use that information later to prove/disprove claims.

This was my first concern this morning, when I learned that Alan was dead. With him having the "Investigator" role I didn't think it made sense that the mission was to act as the "seer". I didn't think bodyguard - as you mentioned, that would be "bizarro". So I was wondering what kind of good guy role would have the ability to arrange this encounter? Yet there were two kills last night, so how many night actions do the Muskateers get? And were the visits coordinated by the same person or by two different individuals? At some point I expect this to start making sense. But right now this isn't any clearer to me than when I got the PM this morning. |

I dont think they hooked up with the servants that came to them. I dont recall them claiming that, and if they did i find it likely its a cover for what really happened.

If there are three musketeers and each gets a night action, this adds up. But if what path was saying about Alan dying even if the poison didn't get him, sounds like there could be four wolves out there. How about this: one musketeer kills Izulde, one poisons Alan, and the third is a backup against Alan in case the poison doesn't work. If this is true, where do the visitors come in? If they were sent from a baddie, it could be a musketeer sympathizer. The person that can become the fourth musketeer. Do I sound off base here? |

I think the poison was a cardinals guard assasin who just screwed up. Or fouts himself had a one time assasin role as well.
Izulde was the muskateers i believe, and the back-up night action on alan was likely another cardinals guard(not to kill though, i suspect). So that would be 1 kill by the muskateers, 1 by fouts or a cardinals guard, and one night action by some other guard. Its works in my head.

ditto. so blade, you think we have an assassin role on our side and he screwed up? hopefully that wasn't his one-kill (i don't know how those roles work...do they normally get a kill every night, or every other night, or what?) that'd be a huge help to us, although it was a curious person to target that first night. |

Is it possible that there are 3 musketeers and they all kill in a different way? That would be a nice bit of flavor.
I'm not discounting the idea of a botched assassination attempt with the poison, but I'm not sure I love that idea either. Fouts really didn't have a good reason to look at him last night, and Alan hinted about an important role. I'd hate to think our assassin (who may only get one attempt) used it on night 1 with flimsy information like that. |

Unless we have a multiple kill assassin, the night one thing seems a little too crazy for me to believe. I'm more inclined to think they might get multiple kills.

The musketeers seem to be pretty brutal in their killings(slitting his throat is brutal to me). Poisoning the wine doesnt seem quite as brutal..so i assume it wasnt the same faction.

Fouts said he had two suspects, chief and alan...he killed chief, and then he sent congratulatory wine to alan that someone managed to get their hands on and poison before it went to alan? That makes sense to you? I dont think fouts is bad, but id like someone to explain a story that makes more sense then fouts killed his other top suspect last night with the wine he purchased and gave to alan. Why send wine to, after chiefs death, your top suspect?

Only marginally better than a day 1 guess, but until I get something else to go on I'm going with my theory of a Musketeer in the Fouts voting yesterday, so:
VOTE SNDVLS

Possible, but the question then becomes game balance. I know we a have more then normal amount of special roles this game, but 3 kills a night would imply almost every good guy must have some power.

Fouts suspected CR and Alan because they voted for him and wouldn't move off of him. It was the old "I know I'm good, so you must be bad if you vote for me" logic which really annoys me. Alan hinted at the important role, so Fouts killed CR. Even if he could kill someone else (a Duke AND an assassin?), I seriously doubt he'd go after Alan right after threatening to kill him. It makes more sense to me that the musketeers took Alan's hint of being important and killed him with a forged receipt. If we had found the receipt due to the actions of a detective-type player, I'd believe that maybe Fouts did it. Since we found it as part of a normal write-up, I can't believe he killed Alan. Heck, the musketeers could have planted that receipt not so much to frame Fouts, but to thank him for getting our seer to identify having an important role. |

I never saw alan's hints, so if you can go back and point them out id appreciate it. I saw cronin and fouts hint, but never alan. I remember alan even saying so much for trying to make the wolves think i didnt have a role. Please, if you would, quote the hints for me. If he was hinting, ill drop this argument

Brian, can you reference the post where you think Alan gave himself up? Because I did not conclude Day 1 thinking to myself, "Wow, Alan totally gave out damaging info about his role". But clearly you saw something and there must have been enough out there for the Muskateers to see as well. So I guess I'm feeling dumb about missing this ... |
