BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! The town awoke in the early morning to the sound a series of loud explosions. The citizens ran from their homes in earnest to see a home far at the end of the row in flames. In a panicked state, they scrabbled to gather buckets and pails full of water to put out the blaze, but just as quickly as the fire had errupted… it died down.
Strangely, no one could quite identify exactly whose home it was. The door was always bolted shut, and the shades always drawn through which tiny cracks of candle light seeped Night after Night for so many years. At last, through morbid curiousity, they could finally take a look inside and see what this man had been up to.
The door, burned through, was simple to kick in revealing a hoard of which even even the wealthiest townsmen were envious: gold jewelry, gold tableware, golden furniture. It seemed virtually every belonging in the home was made of this precious metal. No wonder the fire had burned out so quickly.
But in the corner laid the horribly burned home owner. They flipped over the corpse to find it wasn’t a man, as they had suspected, but a woman. She bore no markings of violence; instead, it seemed her death had come from an explosive combination of chemicals. Blast! No one else knew enough about chemistry to figure out exactly what it was, except for a pile of… lard? At least the farmers could recognize that.
Hockey Monkey, the Alchemist, has been blown up.
The Day will end at 1:30 PM EDT on Monday.

Quicker.
I came in here prepared to unlimber some righteous smiting to whoever triggered that notification e-mail. So of course it was the post I’ve been reloading the thread wanting to see…
I’m a little surprised actually. I expected not to wake up. Having done so, I’m afraid to report that once again I got no reading.
Since the delayed-action implementation of Sekham’s Revenge. I had the same amount of information on three players - Kyrie Eleison, Queueing and USCDiver. Thus I considered the case for investigating each one of them.
I settled on Queueing because the failure on Night 8 irked me a little bit, and I wanted to get a handle on him.
And for the second time, got nothing.
(Where’s that headbanging smiley when you need it?)
I knew there was something I forgot to do yesterday. Signing up now…
So are we dunking NAF? Is FCOD off the hook? Who the *@#% is the damn recruit, if there has been one?
grumble
:smack: Hockey’s demise does seem to indicate that they have indeed recruited. Otherwise, why kill off a recruitable?
So wait, you are all convinced that I am scum just because a known scum said so?
I have been framed!
FRAMED!
If the cult has recruited we can be sure he is one of six names; only you are immune from recruitment now. Also, I can’t reveal the recruit by investigation. The result of an investigation does not change if the player is recruited, and I do not learn that the player has been recruited. The death of HockeyMonkey is a strong pointer that suggests the recruitment didn’t happen in Night 6, as HM was by far and away the most likely subject for recruitment that Night.
I still see no reason to suppose we started with less than 6 cultists, so if the recruitment has been used, we’re now four Town to three Cult, one of whom is masquerading as a Believer (that would be the Prophet). If we did start with less, well and good, but we should play as if we are at Lynch or Lose.
I’m going to start with some backreading tonight before deciding whether to vote for NAF or not.
On preview, I believe NAF may have been infested with the Spirit of IT - or maybe zuma[sub]2[/sub].
Here’s where we stand:
There are 2 or 3 Cultists left. If there are 3 Cultists, we must kill a Cultist today, or we lose.
The Prophet and possibly one Cultist (natural or recruit) is in this group:
USCDiver - ??
Kyrie Eleison - ??
Queuing - ??
FlyingCowOfDoom - Citizen or Prophet
NAF1138 - Cultist
ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies - Monk
MHaye - Apprentice (possibly a recruit but highly unlikely IMO)
I think we have to take the sure thing and kill NAF toDay.

Hey! HEY! HEEEEY! Get away from my gold! It’s mine! Stop it I say…what? I’m dead? That’s disturbing. Still, I’m not leaving anyone my gold.
:::Wanders off to the Forbidden Thread in search of nachos and insight:::
Good Luck to the remainder of you!
I will be honest. I don’t know what to do today. However I am also leaning towards the sure thing, however what I would like to do is lean towards the sure thing and then kill him at the last possible moment to allow all of us to walk away from this game for the labour day weekend.
Which may well explain why you unexpectedly woke up. NAF1138, according to you, is an unbeliever, and so not the Prophet. If it’s just NAF, the Prophet and the recruit left, your investigations may not threaten the cult any longer. The best outcome would be that NAF turns out to be a recruited non-believer, but that seems unlikely.
I agree with you that Hockey Monkey was the most obvious choice for a recruit on night six. If the cult were to have recruited that night, would they really have picked her, the most obvious choice? WIFOM, there, I know, but there was one other recruitable person who had claimed by night 6: Queuing. Perhaps the cult did believe his claim.
I have no idea why the cult might have recruited that night, though. Here is the final vote tally from day 6: It doesn’t seem that any of those in our current pool of candidates for Prophet were in much danger – I am the only one who even appears on the tally, and with only one of nineteen votes.
The only other no-kill night was night nine. However, our disciple seemed pretty convinced that there was no recruit that night:
I think she used her protect-two-people deal that night, and that this is an expression of her enhanced confidence that her protection was effective that night. However, that doesn’t mean that the cult didn’t elect to recruit someone other than the two she chose to protect, though.
Agreed. Vote NAF1138
This I don’t understand. Pygmy’s elided and restored message implicated NAF1138 strongly. Are you thinking that the entire incident might have been staged?
Good plan.
So what you all seem to be saying is that now is probably a good time for me to
vote: top dog?
Bah, sorry CatinaSuit, I know you’re male. EBWOP: “she” = “he”.
