Pirates II: Never Never Land Cruise

[Cobra_Ikari]

((oops! [roll0]))

[pendell]

Eldritch Knight, exactly how did you 'screw over' the narrators?

Respectfully,

Brian P.

[pendell]

Having thought about it, I withdraw my previous point and Point at Cobra_Ikari.

Reasoning:

1) You defended Hyrum fiercely, even to the extent of a 'false' confession of being a pirate yourself to save him. Why?
2) You pointed at Gnome Barbarian, who turned out to be the seer, and also at Vonreil, whom Gnome_Barbarian has vouched for.
3) In fact, I am hard pressed to see where you have ever voted for a guilty party. All your votes have been aimed directly at those who have been working the hardest to save the ship.
4) Moreover, you are playing extremely aggressively. This implies, perhaps, Lucky's strategy on that other fabled ship I heard about, when the dominant player with the best logic turned out to be the infamous Jack Sparrow.

Thus, my reasoning. What is your defense?


Respectfully,

Brian P.

[Lord Magtok]

Until I hear his defense, I'm *pointing at Cobra.*

[The Valiant Turtle]

Pendell's logic makes sense to me.

((I am intentionally not searching, it doesn't help to find a pirate by knowing who the croc checked, who Tinker Bell protected, or who Chief Wigwam scried, which is all searching can tell us now))

[Goblin Music]

*Points at cobra*((just agreeing k'))

[Cobra_Ikari]

Ikari, unable to sleep, wanders up on deck and catches the argument against him.

Very well, Mr. P. I'll fill you all in on how I work.

First, I defended Hyram because he came to me. I had reminded him that searching in daylight was probably more fruitful than doing it in the dark, we got to talking, and he mentioned this was his first sea voyage. He swore he was just a passenger, so I told him I'd be his ally, if he liked. At the end, I felt I owed him a bit longer of a voyage, so...I tried to get attention te me, so he could enjoy his first cruise a little longer, but I said it too late, and then it turned out he had betrayed me.

Second, I pointed at Vonriel before he had been mentioned as GB's ally, mostly to try and get out the reason he had defended Shadow, or Mr. Smee, and what he had whispered to GB. I pointed at GB...I don't remember why. I was angry. I've lost my head a time or two when that happened. And I don't like people keeping secrets.

Third, I disagree. I voted at Inky when he confessed to being a pirate, I voted at Shadow on GB's advice, and I voted at blackout because I didn't like the suspicious way he worked. He voted for GB right after we got Smee from GB's advice, and then said he meant to point at Vonriel, who has been on GB's team, too. And then GB covered for him. I have no clue how they know his innocence, but that rapidfire pointing worries me.

And as for my "aggressive" and "logical" tendencies...that's just part of my nature. Sorry if I'm striking out hard, but I make sure I have a reason before I point, which is more than I can say for some of the others here.

I am no pirate. And if I'm to be pointed at...

He slowly draws out his carving knife and examines it before kneeling.

If you decide to throw me off anyway, I'll tell you this. Don't bother trying to shove me off some plank. I'll gladly walk off this ship full of idiots if it comes to that. Aye, you heard me. Idiots. Because only a fool would think me a pirate.

He glares and works a little more on his carving, disgusted.

[Akaziel]

"I do not think I will be voting anyone off this boat today... unless an unlucky pirate slips a vital clue off his tongue. And then, only then I will vote." Akaziel sighs, and walks a few steps... and eventually figures out that not pointing is a cause for suspicion. He runs back. "Damn... I forgot about that one... I guess I'll just have to point at Cobra, not because of your reason, but as a means of self preservation. I do not wish to be thrown overboard, or 'auto-lynched'."

[Eldritch Knight]

Better safe then sorry.... Although, coming from a guy who blew up a Solar System, that's probably not very reassuring...

EK points at Cobra

[Vonriel]

((First post needs to be updated: Gnome Barbarian is still on the vote tallies list, and he isn't around any more.))

I don't blame Cobra for pointing at me, but I do take offense at being called an idiot. I can't promise what's gonna happen if you keep it up. Vonriel turns from where he was appraising Cobra's work. Pendell, however. You are guilty of what you accuse Cobra of: You are easily the most logical one among us. You've also proven yourself to be the first to make a long speech, perhaps expecting us to fall asleep or simply give up and agree with you to get you to stop talking, and then lead everyone into pointing at someone. I personally hate bandwagon starters, and you never even asked for opinions of the other people on board, so for now, I point at Pendell. Vonriel finishes, then looks around, and speaks to everyone. Think this through on your own, this is just one man's opinion. I hate it when people join just to join, because if I wind up wrong, I look like a bad guy.

Vonriel turns away, and goes back to check Hallway G (([roll0])). Starting at his own door, he slowly feels his way along the doorwell. At any sign of an odd feeling, he pulls out a dagger and scrapes it off, to see if he can tell what it was. From there, he moves to Calamity's doorway, checking every little detail he can see. He goes on in the same way at Ink's doorway, and then to Ceika's doorway, but when he gets there, he scans around carefully to see if anyone is around, before picking the lock and doing a quick scan of the room. Closing and locking it back, he goes to Moon Called's door, and does the same as with Ceika's. Once done, he goes back up on deck to relax in the sun. ((Hmm, I think I need to stop being verbose.. ))

[Alarra]

(It does, but I'm tired and have a paper to write...maybe llama will do it)

[DarkLightDragon]

*DLD turns to Vonriel*

While, you make sense, and I don't like what either Pendell or Cobra are saying, but Cobra is more suspicious to me, so my vote goes to him.

*DLD then turns to Pendell*

Don't think your long speeches will save you forever. I won't forget my suspicion of you, either.

[pingcode20]

"Meh. I won't be held responsible if Cobra's just a garden variety knife-throwing lunatic, though."

Pingcode also points at Cobra

[Cobra_Ikari]

Knife throwing, fine. Lunatic? Where'd you get that from?

And you aren't washing your hands of this. If you point at me, it's on your head, too.

He glares.

All bandwagoners will burn.

[pingcode20]

"Don't glare at me! I don't have opinions - I just do what I'm told! Besides, that sounds like pirate talk, making threats... well, smee talk, if nothing else."

Pingcode goes off and searches Hallway B [roll0]

[Cobra_Ikari]

Oh, I'm not threatening. But don't you dare think you can call me out and contribute to my death and then say you had nothing to do woth it.

Bandwagons kill innocents. There's no evidence against me. I can tell them they'll burn if I wish.

[pingcode20]

Pingcode makes a show of thinking that he can wash his hands of the issue, for no reason other than to annoy Cobra.

"At any rate, if you're just a garden variety knife-throwing lunatic, sorry about this. If you're not, then, well, you can burn, I suppose. I'll remember you if I ever end up doing a Lady Macbeth, though."

[Akaziel]

"If Cobra is a pirate, is there any explanation for him behaving this way? Yes, there is: he is trying to cast suspicion onto someone else. But if Cobra is not a pirate, why is he acting this way? Anger? I doubt it... no real reasons at all..." Having said this, Akaziel sits down and waits for sundown, his finger pointed firmly at Cobra. "I said I'd vote when I see clues, right? Cobra's reaction is clue enough for me."

[Selrahc]

*Points at Cobra*
Seems like a decent case against him.

Your game completely stopped lynching due to lack of rebellions. They are vital tools to keep lynchings going.

[Cobra_Ikari]

Clues, Akaziel? What do you know of clues? My personality is a f***in' clue now? My reaction is a clue? I haven't changed how I treat any of the people here. The is the worst case I've ever seen presented...and you and Pendell would kill me over things like this? I was already suspicious of Pendell, and I know there's been suspicion on you...

I think you're both pirates. I think you're in on this together.

Ikari points at Pendell.

Learn to make a case. If I have to go down because nobody bothers reading and just follows the fingers of those who talk a lot, so be it. I'm no pirate. I've not heard either of you suggest the same.

((Selrahc, lack of bandwagons didn't kill my game. Lack of people paying attention did. Like pingcode said, you had a massive voting block. It wasn't people with no voting block not following your points, it was the fact that half your voting block never showed up that made you unable to kill anyone.))

[pingcode20]

((*Hem Hems* I said that we lost because of half the voting block not showing up.))

"Very well, I shall stop my accusations. And then I shall wash my hands of this affair, excepting if you are a pirate, in which case I will claim credit with everybody else."

*Unpoints at Cobra

[Cobra_Ikari]

((*Hem Hems* I said that we lost because of half the voting block not showing up.))

((Yeah, I realized that... >.> sorry!))

[Timberwolf]

Vonriel makes sense to me

points at Pendell

[Calamity]

Yes, I agree with Timber

*points at Pendell*

[Castaras]

The kitten points at herself, still very very very confused.

[Timberwolf]

((OOC, in no way to be taken seriously

I couldn't resist this

Look what I found by the kittens bowl !!



end OOC))

[Cobra_Ikari]

((points at Kitty[/redtext] ;) ))

[Castaras]

(( @Timberwolf - I wondered who would post that...

Meow!

Oh shut up kitten. Go back to your roleplaying.

And as for you Ikari...I dint do it guv'ner! ))

The kitten curls up, and dozes.

[Captain van der Decken]

While I see Pendell's point.. I agree with Vonriel too, and Cobra's defense makes sense, at least.

I point at Pendell.
