Day 5

INH was despondent. Sure, the beach was lovely, and the whale spouting water out in the distance was a sight capable of inspiring wonder in anyone, but his plan of pacifism had been disrupted. The kill on the previous Night had upset the proverbial apple cart, and the team of remaining players had little sense of where they should go from here or what their strategy would be.

As if this were not bad enough, a feeling of foreboding had fallen over all of them, as if they were running out of time. No one could explain it, but it was, as I believe the kids are saying these days, a real bummer.

As he sulked like Achilles in his tent, his musings were disturbed by the cries of Fingersplints, who was dramatically dying nearby.

“I’m dying!” said Fingersplints, which was true at the time, but quickly became inaccurate as she gasped her last gasp.

INH rushed over to investigate, but then he promptly fell down dead as well, like some grotesque slapstick. There was stillness for a while, and then INH’s body burst into flames.

“Well, that seems gratuitous,” said juliets.

fingersplints has been killed by Blank Frank.
insertnamehere has died.
insertnamehere has been killed by Baby’s On Fire, but he was already dead, so it doesn't matter.
You have 24 hours to lynch someone.

Song #6 ~ "On Some Faraway Beach"

This is probably my favorite track out of all of them, but I don't think going here is a very good idea. The synthesizer lends a surprising air of finality to the song, and I'm going to guess that it was the closing track on the album it was originally released with? Regardless of the actual song itself, the lyrics are probably the scariest out of any of them.

"Given the chance
I'll die like a baby
On some far away beach
When the season's over.

Unlikely
I'll be remembered
As the tide brushes sand in my eyes
I'll drift away.

Cast up on a plateau
With only one memory
A single syllable
Oh lie low lie low."

That's the second track to explicitly reference death. And this one also brings back the terrifying existential angst from the damned River! I don't want to find out what Llama bastard has up his sleeve for this place. I'm expecting dead babies and plateaus.

INH'S RANKINGS OF THE LOCATIONS BASED ON THE LYRICS AND GENERAL ATMOSPHERE OF THE SONGS

1. Over Fire Island
2. Taking Tiger Island
3. By This River
4. China my China
5. In Dark Trees
6. On Some Faraway Beach

I knew this damn beach wouldn't be a good idea.

#560

bizarre

#561

It's really difficult to tell whether the animals still have a fighting chance

#562

My computer is a bastard. Sorry for missing the poll - would've voted for the beach again, although it looks like a rather evil beach

#563

So there is one animal left?

#564

Would the host tell us if all animals were dead? It's possible one of the two victims last night was an animal.

#565

It doesn't look like INH's plan is going to work to his advantage.

#567

Someone must have really had it in for him!

#568

Well this all sucks

#569

Not sure if either of those deaths work with the "plan" and yeah Dom I guess you're right about his plan not really working in his favor unless he was an animal

#570

By the way, if you still want to keep lynching animals, I happen to be one.

#571

Is anyone volunteering?

#572

Vompatti just said he is one, hard to tell how trustworthy of a marsupial he is though

He can still win if he is Fellas or Animals

I doubt he would have suggested the plan if he wasn't a fella.

this

#575

Well then he can still win no problem. Didn't llama say that only gals have to be alive to win?

#576

Is anyone planning to vote in the lynch poll? Four hours to go.

#577

Three hours to go. Still no votes.

#578

Well Vompati volunteered that he is an animal, I've just been trying to think through if there is any reason to do that if he's not one. I don't hear anyone arguing against voting for him so I would say that means he's not a gal or a fella. So I'll go ahead and vote. It worries me a little that no one has voted yet though. Am I missing something?

#579

guess I'll vote voopy too

#580

Yeah. Voted Vompi. No one else has claimed to be anal. Although the plan is in tatters I suspect.

#581

ebwop...animal....not anal.

I don't believe Vomps for a second, but as the math stands for the nightkilled (no way can all three be animals), it's possible to even it out. That is, if 1 or 3 of the nightkilled were not animals. And other numbery things that would have to be in place. Sigh. And the plan was working so well...

Ah, well. A vote for Vomps, then!

#584

Voting for vomps I guess. What else is there to do at this point?

#585

Any volunteers this time?

Night 5

In the wake of all the killing, a pall of apathy fell over the group. Nobody seemed even interested in voting in the lynch poll. But Vompatti, that brave little soldier, heroically gave everyone an easy out, so they wouldn’t have to think too hard about the vote.

After the slaughter, a traditional viking burial was in order.

God bless you Vompatti, and all the ships at sea.

Vompatti has been lynched. He was Baby’s On Fire.
Due to host unavailability, the Night will end at 7:00pm EST on December 18.
You have 47 hours to submit your night actions and decide where to go next.

#587

why vomps why

why u do dis?

#588

uhhh huhhh

so vomps was responsible now for 3 out of the 4 actions which were opposing The Plan

Interestingly it's still possible, albeit distantly, for everybody except voopy (and any other gals that have died or die tonight) to win

#589

Hi. please volunteer okay, animals? all your animal teammates now depend on you for the win
