Who's human and has some new gold????

Yeah, well. Spike could have stolen the gold from one of us. I think the rhyming is more damning evidence. Add to that the fact that bards are also magic users and I think we've found our culprit.

[Urban Ranger]

Rhyming? Jon Miller doesn't rhyme very well with human-born. Besides, he seems too jovial to be acting against his own wishes.

"Friends," Urban Ranger stood up, "this is a difficult announcement to make, but the evidence is unmistakably clear. The culprit is none other than Spacéd C’owboy. Remember that time when we were attacked by a Svirfneblin? That just says even the good could be coerced.

"By the code of paladins, he is required to vote publicly, if he votes at all. We have never seen him casted any votes publicly, which means only one thing. He never did vote. Why didn't he? That's because he knows that we are innocent, and he could not bear to lay false accusations on any of us.

"Lets look at the parchment. Here it says I write this asking for atonement. What kind of people look for atonement? Clerics and paladins.

"The Half-Ogre bard Gheneral Ludd. Who would he trust? Everybody trusts a paladin, even the most paranoid does.

"Spacéd C’owboy holy symbol, the Amnian cross of Helm, is missing. Did he lost it? Did he throw it away? Was it stolen? It doesn't matter. What matters is he doesn't seem eager to go look for it. What would a paladin be without his holy symbol? Unless, of course, he has already fallen, strayed from the path of his god.

"But, he still tried to clutched for it, which just says his heart is still with his god, even though his deeds have undone him. This makes perfect sense when you compare it to what's written in cipher on the parchment.

"The person who's responsible is Spacéd C’owboy. Unimaginable, perhaps, but the only logical conclusion. Perhaps he did not commit the actual murders, he allows Drows to slip in on his watch to do it. This seems reasonable, considering the way Siddiqui Il-Artir was murdered: it showed a great hatred.

"Since Drows can see in the dark, move about in this forsaken area quietly, and prefer to attack from behind, this can easily explain how the other murders were committed."

Urban Ranger turned to look at Joncha, "And Spacéd C’owboy rhymes much better with human-born than Jon Miller."

Spaced has voted publicly every round.

The rhyming is in the note, not with the culprit's name! Jon Miller is a bard! Rhyming is what bards do.

As I said, he is too jovial to be a person acting against his own conscience.

1. Bolding a person's name is a public vote.

2. He only laughs to keep from crying.
3. Just because you're wrong, it doesn't mean you had to close my poll.

Only in Mafia.

I was referring to his general disposition.

Bah. It's spammed to death.

Spammer!

[DrSpike]

Well I can't be bothered to wade through all the, uh, posts, but IIRC Spaced did vote openly each round.

Joncha, if you want your deduction to succeed, you have to explain better, since your logic, whether right or wrong, is clearly beyond some.

[joncha]

I'll try harder next time.

Uh, did too. Voted for everyone that was picked making my vote seem like the sealer.

Sorry Joncha, the bard has been my traveling partner for far too long for me to suspect him. Plus Spike has been spamming far less than usual, making his posting actions seem suspect as well.

[DrSpike]

I have not been spamming less!

*penny drops*

Hey! What I mean is, I don't post lots in these threads usually so that is in line with what has happened here.

It seems, like last game when we should (glares at Imran) have won, the glaring evidence presented is going to be ignored.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Well if someone (glares at DrSpike) would have pointed out the glaring evidence to a newbie, perhaps we would have won .
