Be Excellent To Each Other

I think the goblins will try and get a ball rolling, then hope momentum carries it further forward before adding in final weight to tip it over the edge. As we all know nothing at this stage, someone has to be thrown under the sleigh, and we cn pick through the bones and find out who voted, when and why. It's an omlette and eggs thing.

I know I'm a good child, I'm suspicious of Zaphod79 and one of the malcs at present. I think the good children are at a big disadvantage in this game, with only one protection role andone investigative role, so voting is the only way of getting things to the right outcome.

They're goblins! I don't think that they are THAT clever.

As troops said, people who say just enough to not look suss, but not too much, arouse suspicion.

Still

TFF and squirt. Say something!!!

The investigators aren't investigators you know, they are protectors with an investigation byproduct if they get lucky.
This makes finding the baddies tricky, to say the least. So voting off a person you think is good is a very very bad idea at any stage of this game as we really need the numbers! a better strategy would be to leave them alive and hope they get targeted overnight by the goblins and hope that the investigators chose to protect them, a small chance but the only chance we have to get concrete information.

Trooper conveniently forgets Santa's investigative role...

Hah! Bollocks, so I did.

Well, that means i'm not santa then

Sorry for being quiet yesterday... Was in Glasgow and in the car most of the day.

Why is Tropper rhyming?

HA!

<narrows eyes and licks pen>

*sharpens list*

I don't actually think Trooper is a baddie, btw.

Nobody is really sticking out, so I'm gonna stick with a quiet one for now, though realistically, you'd expect the goblins to have communicated with each other enough to not be completely silent.

Hopefully, the superseluths will protect a person the goblins target, that'll get us a goblin, too, as well as protecting the target. And Santa can investigate, too. So, on an evening, best case for the town is a deffo goblin, someone protected and Santa finding another fiendish killjoy. So, 3 bits of information. Worst case is Santa being framed, and the sleuths not helping him.

<cough>

[malc] => 3
[bobbyaro] => 3
[sdg] => 3

Of those 3, I think it would be a risky strategy for sdg and malc to go after me so early, as when it turns out i'm good they would be in the shit. Not to say impossible, but the least likely of those three.
That leaves bobby. 3 posts, one fos thrown out, no vote.

I'd be happy to switch my vote to bobby.

I'm just a good little boy/girl

Malc

Eeek, sorry guys! I managed to miss the start of this, as I was getting drunk on mulled wine in an important meeting!

Let's find those naughty goblins , eat some mince pies and roast some chestnuts!

*comes skipping up the snowy path singing Christmas carols*

Hello everyb... Oh NO! What's this?? Poor santa!!

I've been such a good girl working ever so hard that I haven't had time to notice what's been happening! I've been making lots of pretty Christmas cards for friends and family, with glitter and prancing reindeer.. so pretty.. but what if those lovely people don't get their presents because Santa has lost his list? We must help him!

*twirls pigtails* I think we need some help here, hopefully the investigators can tell us where to look for clues.. but until the night is over, even they can't help us!

So what to do... Oh what to do... *cries as the sound of Christmas carols fade along with all the dreams of presents that may never come*

[vote:bobbyaro]

I'm going with my theory, anyone with me?

Well, fuck this bitches. No one is ruining my Christmas! MaliA is talking nonsense Malc is acting sus as i said. So I am torn between the two, I am going to [vote:Malia] for now.

Edit. Fuck you Trooper, i'll vote for you instead if you want!

All I've learned at the moment is that I need to watch more Christmas films. And that tff is a bit too full of the joys of Christmas.

Fine. have it your way. I'm going to believe trooper for now.

[vote:Bobbyaro]

Pretty sure your work involves goblin'.

Nope, no goblin work for me! I'm sugar and spice and all things nice

Come on, mali, that isn't even subtle!

squirt: 1 (Slightly Green)
malia: 1 (Bobbyaro)
kalmar: 1 (Saturnalian)
bobbyaro: 2 (MaliA, Trooper)
thefirefaerie: 2 (Curiosity, nickachu)
trooper: 4 (Grim..., zaphod79, Malc, sdg)


Bit of a spread, there.

!!!!! POTW!

So we have now finally heard from the last two members of our little Christmas drama, since neither of them have fessed up to being evil goblins....even though Grim... has pointed out that TFF's work involves goblin'

Don't like the idea of voting for Trooper as I find him and Grim bickering funny, will happily vote for him if/when we get some actual evidence against him. So [vote:Bobbyaro] for now, for no particular reason.

I don't know what you could possibly think that for... I'm clearly missing something amusing here! *puts Little Miss Goodie Two-Shoes badge on*

I totally read this as a good working girl :-)

Given its almost 14:00 and we know its harder to get people to vote in the evening I think we'll need to get things moving during the day - for the votes so far I'd rather have trooper around pushing people to talk so i'll switch to

[vote:bobbyaro]

Booo, I am just a good little boy. Vote MaliA he is clearly scum, then it is malc, he is also scum. Then Slightly Green and Zaphod. And then TFF and Curiosity and Squirt and Grim....

If you turn out to be scum, and have listed everyone apart from your scummy friends...

Right now no-one knows that anyone is scum , the baddies know who they are and the super junior investigators know who they are and everyone else just knows their own role , so apart from trying to appear like a child throwing a temper tantrum what are you trying to say ?

He's clearly making a joke, you nutters.

Yeah, jeez. Lighten up, it's Christmas. To many moody people in this town, reckon they might be goblins.

Perhaps I hit a nerve and managed to list all of the bad guys and got them nervous.

Because i obviously know who is bad, what with my super investigative role which works on the first day.

It just makes it boring for you guys if i tell you that.

Anyway, at least it is good to see that KovacsC has learnt from the last game...

Well I'm bored by those posts!

Malc

Oh, sorry, the conversation has been so scintillating otherwise!

HE KNOWS THINGS! LYNCH HIM!

I've just seen two turtle doves being molested by three French hens.

malia: 1 (Bobbyaro)
kalmar: 1 (Saturnalian)
thefirefaerie: 2 (Curiosity, nickachu)
trooper: 3 (Grim..., Malc, sdg)
bobbyaro: 4 (MaliA, zaphod79, Trooper, Slightly Green)

So is being in Glasgow a code ?

Does that mean SDG is Santa ?

This, while useful to see how split everyone is is not as good as



Which lets you see who has not voted and how close things are - I'm all for posting and trying to get people to agree on some options , but please post the full thing

I think MaliA is against christmas and smells green.

[vote:MaliA]

Aha! You're clearly trying to communicate some kind of "code" here, aren't you?!
You're obviously one of those geese-a-laying that I've been hearing things about...

Geese-a-lying, more like!

HA! You can join Zaphod and Trooper and a Malc on my suspicious of being anughty list.

I don't know what is wrong with my typing nowadays.
