***BARNYARD BATTLE GAME THREAD***

[the wicked child]

The unruly mob approached Old MacDonald with shouts of "A cow! We got a cow!".

"How do you know he is a cow?" he asked. "He looks like one!" they answered back. "right, let me see him." he replied.

They brought Troy forth and tossed him in front of the inquisitive farmer. After inspecting him closely, he remarked "well, he does look like one..."

"They dressed me up like this!" Troy yelled angrily. The old farmer looked a bit closer. He had been drinking a lot lately, and couldn't make out if this was true or not. He turned to his farmer's intuition and continued.

"There are ways of telling if someone is a cow" he informed the mob. "Are there?" they cried. "Tell us!".

"What do you do with cows?" he asked.

They thought for a moment and responded "tip them!". Before the farmer could respond, they raced forward and shoved Troy over. When he didn't get up, they all began to dance and shout maniacally.

When the farmer came in for a closer look he noticed that

Spoiler:

Troy Loney was but simple livestock.

He had fallen on one of the bull's horns and was impaled. Someone really should have cleaned up that mess. Good help is hard to find, I suppose.

writeup coming.

[the wicked child]

Teh Corv was around the farm when a familiar foe approached: The Heifer. What ensued was an epic chase scene:

Spoiler:

Just when The Heifer thought he would never catch up, the inexplicable happened: teh Corv's ran out. With a menacing laugh, the Heifer ran him down and buried him in a pile of cow pies, the like of which has never been seen before or since.

Spoiler:

Corvidae was but simple livestock

For good measure, he smacked someone upside the head with a cow pie, convinced he had found the mysterious gunman... but he was wrong. Without warning, that familiar sound of a shotgun blast stopped Heifer dead in his tracks. But he was not the target.

In the barn, NAN, riddled with holes, slumped to the ground. The Stranger cursed, then disappeared into the night.

Spoiler:

NAN was but simple livestock

Alright...I was wrong.

Before you all go voting me off, I am the vig. I shot LITT in the face and even asked to buckwheat (anyone seen Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead?) malk.

I made a big push for Troy based on Slappy's vote. A lot of others voted for the same reason. You can vote me off and lose your vig or you can let the baddies decide if they want to sacrifice one of their own to kill me. Since I did push so hard for Troy I will not try and stop a vote for me other than to say that I am green.

I do suggest that we look at Slappys vote record:

tip pittsports

the mob hath spoken

save pittsports

tip dagny

tip KS

This sounds retarded if you ask me.

tip NAN

And in response to that vote...

This sounds retarded if you ask me.

tip NAN

why nan?

No reason beyond I think the theory he's espousing makes little sense, because without having nabbed a baddie, it's too early to be coming up with these elaborate schemes.

Lynch troy

I thought Slappy may have found a baddie. Since it wasn't Troy I thought it might be NAN so I took a shot at him last night. I was wrong. Since everyone else on Slappys vote list is dead he either did not find a baddie or he did and didn't vote for him.

This is my first game as the vig. I've been the JOAT before but I only had 1 bullet. I've dropped the ball sort of by killing 2 blues but I did manage to kill the alpha.

Do with me what you will.

[redwill]

What 2 blues did you kill?

Malk and Nan

[count2infinity]

Malk and Nan

okay...so you actually shot at nan? because when i read the write-up i got sort of excited because the way i read it i though the vig found the heifer and shot at it. maybe i just read it wrong.

[redwill]

Well, I suppose the timing is right: Nights 2, 4, and 6. I presume you had that "I was wrong" post pre-made, since it wouldv'e taken you far longer than 4 minutes to compose it...?

[redwill]

My last post was directed at PFIDC.

[mac5155]

pfidc, pittsports is still alive...

kill pittsports87

[count2infinity]

pfidc, pittsports is still alive...

kill pittsports87

somehow i doubt that he found a baddie on the first night and then went to vote for different people every day phase after that. if pittsports was bad and slappy knew he was bad, he would have continued to vote for him.

im pretty lost this game admittedly, but i dont think pittsports vote is a horrible idea.

Yes, I had it pre-written. I did that when I got to work and saw Troy was blue. I then waited for the write up and edited it appropriately.

[MWB]

Interesting... Seems to make sense. My only counter would be that pfidc could be part of the pig faction. It seems that there would have to be some way that they can kill. Either that or they would be able to communicate with the cows in some way.

[Senka]

I like the votes of Crayz, Redwill, Mac?, Pittsports.

Im going to tip crayz

i think the latter is the only real option. there have been no write-ups discussing pigs killing anyone, they've all been gunshots or cow murders. i figured PFiDC was some sort of RP, but didn't know what side he was on. At this point i'm inclined to think he's telling the truth.

[beerman]

Zaro has completely disappeared from the game, he was pretty active the first day and nothing since.

says the guy that hasn't said much of anything this game...

i do agree though. he has disappeared

[redwill]

I think we need to wait a bit to see if another vig claimant shows up.

[Letang Is The Truth]

i liked the little cow emotes. *picks face back up and walks to the graveyard*

[cup keeper]

tip beerman

He wouldn't vote for relantel and supported shaf on the doublem vote. He has made blanket statements that appear helpful but are just kind of restating what we already know. Now he is pointing out other quieter players after he had been in that role for the first few days.

[MWB]

Yeah, beerman's probably a good vote. I was all set to vote pfidc before he came out.

[the wicked child]

1 pittsports (mac)
1 crayz (Senka)
1 beerman (cup keeper)

7 to tip.

[count2infinity]

i was thinking azkar... but we already have 3 votes out there for 3 different people. i don't want to make a mess out of the vote.

I've been saying this the last 2 votes.
