As dawn breaks in the arena the mods decide to show you all a little movie that they made detailing the previous Nights events. Sound editing took them longer than they thought it would, so it's a bit late.
Film roles, it is a black and white claymation film:
The door to The Lion's room opens a bit, and the killer silently and quickly strides in on his four paws. It's Oscar, the Cat of Doom! In his mouth he holds a piece of paper with a written message. He jumps up on The Lion's bed and places the paper on his chest. Oscar says:
"i iz deth kitteh. this iz 4 u. ur tmie iz kum, die nowz, kthxbye. i can haz sole?"
And with that, Oscar pads out of the room.
The film sputters to a halt and you all rush to the Lion/Duck/Duke's room.
In it you find the Lion dead of an apparent heart attack. The note on his chest reads "im in ur game, prediktin ur deths"
You look around his room and find: a Square and Compass pin a Civil defense badge a Book of secret codes and handshakes
The Day has started, and this game is draggin. The Day will end no later than this Friday at Midnight.
3 votes to start a countdown.
Later all.

3 votes? Holy crap!
What I'm wondering about Duke's death is this: was it scum-initiated, or was it mod-initiated? Or something else?
The reason I wonder about if it is mod-initiated is that he was obviously flouting his lolCat post-restriction a couple of Days ago. He was clearly mod-warned for it, and appeared to be on thin ice. Then last Night, he seemed to be engaging in a bit of illicit strategy talk, which is what makes me think there is more to this than a standard mafia hit.

If a mod kill takes place there will be no question as to what has happened.

I wonder if the killing has any connection to the ceiling cat mentioned in Pollux's PM from yesterday and in Pleonast's and Lion-Duck's discussion last night.
Of course, it could be the killer just WIFOMing us as well.
Pleo, any thoughts on this?

Check this out. Oscar (cat of doom!) doesn't seem to be an agent of death, only a predictor.

Here's the people who are still alive:
Cometothedarksidewehavecookies -Night Watchman, sleeps in the daytime Pollux -Zamfir, immune to nk unless protected The Dude -Junior Mod, PFK, has killed Pleonast -Executioner, can prevent lynch Hal -Vanilla Town/Mason Senor Vorpal Kickasso (Hoopy Frood) Bufftabby Parzival
Hal is confirmed "Vanilla Town" by Duke & his death. Not scum unless he was a traitor, and I'll put that down as highly unlikely.
Pleonast I consider unikely to be scum based on molefan's pairing him with Idle. Yesterday I said 'town' but I realized he could conceivably be PFK. At this point, scum is the goal, and I don't think he's scum.
Cookies seems unlikely to be scum based on her PR. It seems like too good of a scum cover.
Bufftabby has publicly killed two scum. If she's scum, she's put herself at a pretty big disadvantage. The only thing that gets me is her accuracy in her targets; it's the one reason I don't want to count her out as a scum player going for broke.
Pollux has claimed to be safe from nightkills. Potentially of great value to the town, but there isn't much else to go on. He still seems kind of suspicious to me.
Hoopy Frood matched up against Idle lying about him. It's a strong case against him being scum. On the other hand, this could have been two scum putting on a show. Idle's last words were that he himself was a traitor to the scum. So he might have been trying to get his fellow scum knocked out, too. The problem with this theory is that it seems like Hoopy ought to have backed up Idle if they're both scum. I'd have to check how events went down to see if that's true.
Only a few realtime days. If we knew how long the countdown was, I'd be in favor of voting someone to start it (so that Pleo would talk). The ceiling cat thing & last night's open comments seem odd.
Pleo, how did you get your LOLCAT restriction?

Maybe I'm just awesome. (buffly bolded) Wouldn't that entail Hoopy saying, "why, yes, I am scum"? Or are you talking about something else?

Don't forget, Parzival that there is also likely to be an SK out there. After all, we had a bounty hunter role who was looking for an SK, we've had multiple unexplained kills on a few nights (which could be explained by both scum and SK getting a kill off), and none of the current unconfirmed dead seem to have anything that would indicate a serial killer.
Both scum and SK will have to die for Town to win.

If Idle was scum traitor and trying to out me, it would be logical for me to want him dead. Why would I support him? If Idle and I were both scum and we were trying to buy me town cred, why would Idle have thrown out the traitor bit? I don't see how you can logically conclude that at the moment Idle called me out he and I were working together from that point forward, regardless of whether I'm town, scum, or PFK. Neither of our actions is consistent with that.

Well, bah. It was a 50/50 chance of one of us masons dying and I guess I was it.
You guys will be probably be hearing from my partner Hal soon. Shut up and listen to what the man says.

My reasoning on Hoopy is not dependent on him working with Idle. In fact, it's a consequence of rethinking Day 7 in light of his dying claim.
Please remember this is contingent on the final words of a scum player. If he's telling the truth, he could only win as scum if he eliminated all the other scum.
Day 7, Idle-scum comes out with an apparent toy that fingers Hoopy as scum. Why would Idle do this? If, as happened, he was disbelieved, that meant he would die and lose since he was PFK.*Suppose he was believed and we lynched Hoopy. If Hoopy is town, then we'd almost certainly lynch Idle the next day.
What did he stand to gain, then? If Hoopy is scum, then Idle would come out ahead after we lynched Hoopy. I'm not saying this is the only explanation, but right now it's hard to figure it out.
As I said, the other difficult point is why Hoopy would let Idle swing if they were both scum. At that point, the best guess is that he knew Idle was selling him out, and wasn't going to let that happen.
*Recall there was extra info that helped condemn him. Not only is it a point in bufftabby's favor, but those notes also mean Pleonast is very highly likely to be town, which I forgot between yesterday and today.

But yeah, fine, I'll cooperate, Hoopty Frood. If you wanna sing Hal's song, that's cool too, you can have a prize for that. But that one I can't tell you what it is. But it's not a bad thing. I don't think Hal cares for it much anyways.

Hey, I just pull the names from the Player List.
If you have a problem, take it up with the mods. But I doubt they'll listen. I mean, it's not like we can get rid of them or anything.
I'd sing, but I have a sore throat.

All we got to do is vote for one to get executed, and Roosh becomes a mod, according to him. However, it effectively is voting "no lynch", something that probably isn't good for town at this point.

*Sings in a sonorous baritone* Double your pleasure,Double your fun! :sigh: All righteous. You are good to go. I am ALL in favor of lynching the mods. Especially the DoucheMod. However, I am obligated as a referential source to point out - this is probably NOT the smartest or best play to make. However, it's a GREAT ploy if you're scum to try to do convince the town to lynch a mod. That said. We should TOTALLY Lynch the Mod!

This one is another one I made, but this time even I'm not sure what it does. Because I did put in a list of things it COULD do. But I have no idea now which ideas went through and which ones didn't. But yeah. Pull the lever!
