[desc]Aye, Dragon, Mr. Zooggy does seem all to happy to start pointin' fingers right away, just like Mr. Storm yesterday. But as Mr. Storm pointed out, someone has to, and the man isn't afraid to take charge.
This ship can't be sailin' without a Cap'n, traitors aboard or not. Mayhaps the wisdom o'age will prove better this time. I be votin' fer Ronin Storm ter captain what be left of this once fine vessel, may ye fare better than poor ol'Cap'n Nanor.

What worries me more though is the silence on the part of some crew members, sittin' back and watchin' us all argue and accuse one another...[/desc]

[desc]ARGH! That view up on the crow's nest is gonna haunt me fer a while... Get me some Rum, dammit! Having listened to you lot blabber on about captains and treasure and all kinds of rubbish it's now perfectly clear in my drunken haze that the culprit was in fact Zooggy. Ever notice how quick he was to join in with the lynching of VibroAxe, just because it suited him? You put the pieces together and it makes sense...

Captain Nanor, our newly elected leader, found near-death this morning. Crewman VibroAxe, perhaps he was innocent, rest his soul, as we have so far found no evidence that he was involved in this plot to steal the gold from us! Zooggy then just swans in at the last minute, adjusting his vote to something that would, were he a conspirator, suit him quite nicely.

I've got my eye on you, mister Zooggy, and don't you forget it![/desc]

[desc]Arrr, as Crewman Thatbloke says, 'tis awful quiet out there an' I can't say I be likin' that one bit. Seems to me as though our choices be growin' short, though. Whilst I can see Seaman Huung's sense in 'is proposal, I'm wonderin' whether it'd be better fer the true amongst us t'get ourselves together and send another off the plank. Fer sure as day, there'll be another murder by these mutinous dogs as we sleep this night and if we don't git them first then there'll be none of us left before long!

But which of yer are the true sailors of the Leaky Swordfish and how can we be tellin' you from the scoundrels? Each of us would be proclaimin' that we're the true ones but o'course the dastards would say the same.

At least we can say this. Right now, there's more of us than there is of them. Yer chances of votin' the right one off is one in three, assumin' we sent the wrong man off the plank yesterday, or one in six if we were right. That's good odds fer choosin' a Cap'n and not so good odds for findin' one o'these bastards.

Thing is, this could all be over on the morrow. Vote wrong today and they'll 'ave as many as us and I can see the blades comin' out even now...

Vote right today an', on the assumption we got the right man yesterday, it's all over.

The odds ain't great, I'll be the first t'admit it, but if yer vote me up for Cap'n then sure as mornin' will come it'll be me 'anging up in the riggin' and I'll not 'ave 'ad chance to put me theories to the test.

So, I ask of yer, don't vote for a new Cap'n right now. Vote as yer 'eart tells ye or as yer mind leads ye and let us see if we can send the last of these dogs into the sea where they belong!

To that, I add me voice to that o' fellow shipmate thatbloke. It's the plank fer ye, Zooggy![/desc]

I vote Zooggy for the plank.

[desc]So, me mates, if Ronin don't want to be ar cap who then will be? Sure 's hell not meself. So then I vote for Huung to be 'ar cap as he seems to be a reasonable man, not thinkin' 'bout killin' all the time![/desc]

[desc]No no, don't get me wrong. I'll be yer Cap'n if that's what it takes but I figure that the traitors who did fer Cap'n Nanor will be the undoin' of me as well and before I can make any difference at all. So wi' yer votin' fer Cap'n yer basically wastin' time that we be needin' t'finish off the scoundrels once an' fer all.

If yer vote fer me as Cap'n yer voting me into a grave, I'll tell ye that much. And that, in itself, is pretty damn suspicious![/desc]

[desc]As I said yesterday people were all too quick to point fingers! Today it's not Mr Storm, but Zooggy! I wonda' if he's got an alteria motive... But the same thing goes for Dragon... hmm it's all very puzzlin' right now! My gut is tellin' me that there aint somethin' quite right about thatbloke... He's been very eager and like to point out things that take any form of direction away from himself... and tries to make yer all believe that certain people have done it! On this information I'm having to go with thatbloke!

[/desc]

On a point about my quietness, I do work 8 hour shifts on the weekends so I can't really check up on the forums now can I ;)
 

Huung

[desc]I sees the sense in yer words, Quartermaster, but I finds it suspicious meself that yer so against becoming our Cap'n. Is it really 'cos yer afraid to go the same way as Cap'n Nanor - or it is 'cos yer one of them traitors, and bein' Cap'n and not being killed would look awful suspicious?

Enough of yers have voted to send Zooggy to the bottom o'the sea, yer don't need me ter be adding my vote to that, but I'm sticking with ma original vote of Ronin as captain, more so now as I'm interested to see if ya will stay alive. Yer playing a clever game, a little too clever for my liking...[/desc]

Just as confirmation here, D, when you say the crew can either elect a new captain or have someone else lynched, do you mean we as individual crew members only get to make one vote for one of the two, or that the crew as a whole can only do one action?
As Ronin has been saying, if we can only make one action as a whole crew there's no point in only one or two people voting for a new captain, but if both events occur based on individual votes then my vote will stay as it is.

There will be one action, based on whatever has the majority of votes. A new captain OR a lynching.
 

Huung

[desc]Arrr, I be coming ter me senses, Quartermaster! Mayhaps ye be a traitor, mayhaps not, but either way we need ter be thinning the numbers and gettin' rid of those acting all suspicious. You may not be the Cap'n, but as Quartermaster ye be the best to follow fer now. Mark my words though, if ye be knowingly sending innocent men ter their deaths I'll march ye off the plank meself![/desc]

I hereby change my vote to a lynching of Zooggy.

[desc]Well, well, then... It would seem that dog Dragon has you all licking his scurvied hands! I could defend myself, but I know only too well how that would play in your ears.

Know this, then! Dragon was only too quick to turn on his own accuser, and all you are doing is playing his own sick, twisted game. If you walk me to the plank, by tomorrow morning, another one of you will be dead.

You mark my words!

As for you, Dragon, the Captain and I will have our vengeance, in this life or the next![/desc]

Hoy, :)

It probably won't do much good, but no change of vote, here. :)

Also, apologies for the blatant Gladiator quote, but it's such a good line. ;)

Cheers,
J.

[desc]After much deliberation, the crew decides that Zooggy is the most likely traitor amongst them. As with VibroAxe the day before, he is forced towards the plank. As the crew gathers round, Dragon steps forward without a word and delivers a swift kick to Zooggy's chest, sending him plummeting into the rough waters below.

The crew retires to their bunks one by one, still uncertain about their fates.[/desc]

It is now night. Zooggy, I counted your post there as last words, but you may have a final post yet if you desire. Everyone else, please remain quiet until morning. Those with actions, please have them to me by 3.

[desc]The crew wakes up to the sound of screaming. They rush up to the deck to find Traxata, with a sword jammed through his back and right into the ship's mast, pinning him in place.

Ronin Storm pulls the sword from the mast, allowing Traxata to drop to the deck.

"Whose sword be this?" he shouts.

"Arr, looks like it be Captain Nanor's rapier. Pity he didn't get the chance t' use it himself" observes Dragon.

Learning nothing from the sword, the remaining crew gathers round Traxata to hear his last words.[/desc]

It is now day. Trax can make a final post if he desires. The ship is still without a captain, so the same rules apply as yesterday. Lynch or vote for a captain, but not both.

THIS IS SPARTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA


*cough*

Back to the game:

[desc]Strangely who could have done this cruel thing to 'ar beloved trax? Surely enough he was no traitor! But now, what can we do? We're only 4 people left ... so only one of 's be's a traitor, otherwise I'd be dead by now. I think I was wrong on the first day and cap nanor wasn't one of them. And surely enough Vibs was an innocent bein' shov'd from 'ar plank, unlike Zooggy who seemed te be guilty till the last sec. So whom of you guys is the traitor?[/desc]


And now some little off-topic: We're all doomed anyway, aren't we? I mean you can't sail a ship with just one or two persons can you?
 

Traxata

[desc]Huunng you traitorous bastard! I'll make sure they have you off the plank fo' this!
You mark my words...
I'm the veteran of the high seas.... I've been checking up on people while you sleep... I can confirm for definate that Huunng is yo' traitor...
I still maintain thatbloke is the other one......


* splutters*
[/desc]

On a game note the group of traitors can only kill one person at night among them, And I can research one person per night.

[desc]Well well, Mr. Huung, seems ye'll be dinnin' with the fishies this night!any last words?[/desc]

[desc]Ah g'dammit! Each time I come to the conclusion that one of yer is innocent and start me talkin' wi' ye, ye end up hangin' or run through. I can't be completely certain, o' course, but I'm fair sure that our late Traxatum knows what he be talkin' 'bout.

To me mind, Dragon has voted the way of a loyal crewman of the Leaky Swordfish, an' while Seaman Thatbloke does seem a bit suspicious at times I 'ave to say that it's Seaman Huung that I'm most worried about.

See, 'eres me thinkin'. What's Huung done in 'is votin', hmm? If we be thinkin' back, he's done a fair few odd things. First he votes fer the Cap'n but soon after Cap'n Nanor ends up dead. Then he accuses me of bein' a traitor but he's not got enough support. Then just the followin' day he has another change o' heart an' he's votin' me in fer Cap'n, just at the point where another Cap'n vote would really do fer us, and then later that same day he's votin' against Zooggy to send 'im to the bottom.

Back an' forth, back 'an forth. Either he's as constant as the wind or he's squirmin' uncomfortable like in the sure knowledge that we're gettin' closer to him.

Arrr, I may as well come out an' say it. I believe Traxatum and his words go wi' me own thoughts on what's happened 'ere. Huung, I call ye out as a traitor! What 'ave ye to say fer yerself?[/desc]

I vote Huung for keel-hauling.

(Sorry, posted once, but against the wrong part of the tree. This is a repeat, I've deleted the other.)

[desc]So, it would seem that only 4 of us remain. Having been killed overnight, Traxatum revealed in his last words that Huung is perhaps the last of the conspirators. The fact that he has been killed by said conspirators would then lead me to believe that his words would be true.

Therefore, Huung, Get ready to say your prayers and go and see Davy Jones' locker.[/desc]
