Dawn, Day Four _EXT – the Town square. The camera tracks **Askthepizzaguy** , from behind, as he shambles toward the meeting place. Parts, some less important than others, fall off with every step – here a finger, there a tooth, over here a spleen. He stumbles over something, pitching forward. The camera moves away from pizzaguy’s earnest efforts to reassemble his jawbone to the obstacle over which he has tripped – a slumped form. Others gather._ DIZZYMRSLIZZY Is that - ? BABALE I think… COOKIES It is. It’s Guiri. _The camera pulls back; we see that Guiri has been rather straightforwardly murdered. His eyes stare sightlessly up at the sky; the assortment of protective symbols and charms strung about his person seem to have done him little good._ **GuiriEnEspana** , The First Witch, a Town Mason, has been killed. ASKTHEPIZZAGUY You’re doing GREAT, everybody. Keep up the outstanding work. _He rolls his eyes. They both fall out. It’s getting unfortunate. Suddenly there is a scream, from over near the Tavern. All turn. **choie** has been pinned to the front of the Tavern by a length of wood, thrust through her chest. She is quite dead._ **choie** , A Peasant Redshirt, has been killed. _And now the camera moves up to the Barn, where a message has been scrawled in a childish hand:_ " **Guiri** is either _dead_ or is the **SK** - The Fuzzball’s." DIGGIT Thanks for the tip. * * * Day Four begins here, and will end on Thursday, February 21 at 2:00PM EST. Happy hunting! ---

At least there weren’t 3 kills this time, though it sucks to lose a hidden Mason. Whether to drink any of the wine set out in the barn message or not, I have no idea. If the cop got didn’t get lucky again, I hope s/he keeps him/herself to him/herself as far as claiming goes. If you did get lucky again, there should still be a Doc around to possibly protect you and Diggit arguably doesn’t need protection anymore. Just something to consider. I am worried about town-on-town violence in picking too much at those who were dubious of Stan being scum yesterday, as tempting as it is to pick. It was a lucky break hail mary, but I’ll take those any day. ---

Hmm **choie** was killed by a stake in the heart so clearly we have someone hunting vampires. Is someone going to claim Van Helsing or what? ---

NETA so Scum wrote the note @ the SK ( otherwise why would they believe it?) or am I all wet? If we guess how many Scum there could be – and subtract the number of suspected Scum barn posts we might have a better chance of deciding what posts can be believed? ---

> [@LightFoot](#): > > Taking into consideration that the Scum know/ thought they can’t/couldn’t kill the SK they aimed at \*\* guiri \*\* and posted? That or the SK could have killed Guiri and tried to pin it on the Wolves I guess? I think it is most likely that whoever killed Guiri left the note, otherwise it was a really lucky guess. But pinning down who the killer actually was is still just conjecture. ---

Hmm, my take on the message was Scum telling us “We are targeting Guiri. If she doesn’t turn up dead then she must be the SK.” It jives with earlier messages about the Scum team being unable to kill the SK at Night. ---

On another note… **Stan’s** role name causes me a bit of concern. If he’s a werewolf that scares other werewolves then its conceivable the Scum team might have wanted ot get rid of him for some unknown reason (like he’s got a chance of accidentally killing a teammate if he’s chosen to do the Nightkill for instance). But posting an anonymous Barn message doesn’t gain anyone any Town cred like a good old fashion bussing would do so I’m probably just over thinking things. And on a completely different note… If there are only Two remaining Masons with one dead and one already claimed, it’s probably time for the third to come forward and confirm Diggit.
