ansible, just to speak up i am concerned on finding HO. I know i am inno, so you may want to find me.

Hmm, well I would have switched for sure but I think the vote has already passed so it's moot now. With any luck Vengy chose Ment. =P I've submitted the change to P-S just in case that goes through but my guess is it won't. It also makes it hard for anyone but D'rek to resolve since there's uncertainty about the find.

[Gust Hubb]

Sorry to not speak up sooner, I was debating whether to or not. Wasn't sure if I would do more damage than good. Either way, we'll just go from there, and if I am acting too suspicious, you can just lynch me (though hopefully that won't bring the numbers down to a dangerous level. I would like to win, dead or alive).

You know, this post seems scummy to me, after a bit of consideration.

Red italic words are mine. This post comes after ansible mentions he will do a find on GH, then he changes to me. Well done, GH.

[Gust Hubb]

Thanks HO, that was what I more like what I was expecting. I really would like to be found, but I was concerned that it would be seen as sabotage trying to suicide off another FK. but guilty until proven innocent in this game. And if you are suiciding a FK, shame on you.

Well, we don't have much info to go on anyway, it's all pretty much WIFOM at this point, so don't worry about it. If it goes through then great, if not, we couldn't do much to improve our chances anyway.

Actually I never said I was going to find GH before I put my find on you. Now who's scummy!?

Actually, it's probably in MHs favour to be found at this stage. Lynching him's the hard part, not finding him, and if he wasn't found now it gives us better odds of lynching him than we otherwise would have. Also using up a FK means it's risky for us to use them to narrow it down again, because there's a big chance of adding the finders to the pool and hurting the odds.

[HiddenOne]

Sorry, it was Tatts who said that

[Grief]

Also, Kurt, couldn't you resolve for us?

[Gust Hubb]

I must confess that despite the first days of this game, this one needs to be put into hall of fame. Loved KM's exit, the drama queen comment, there was one other thing that I can't remember.... oh yeah, the ghost of Khell.

Don't forget your clever maneuver to get the finders after you by means of pointing at me so I would defend myself and bring attention to you, thereby wasting a find and not getting lynched, which I have foiled

My glass is now empty, who's got the bottle?

Yeah, I agree, it's definitely in MH's favor to be found. GH's request to be found could definitely be a play in that direction, but HO is kind of an unknown anyway. Without any real info to go on I find it's hard to have a reason to choose one over the other. Besides I don't think D'rek would go for changing the find target after the vote majority was reached.

The question is, if MH dies from an FK this night, what do we do tomorrow? Odds are 2/3 that we miss the lynch and screw the pooch, rendering the FK worthless; but if we use the FK and it hits MH again, we increase the pool by more than we reduced it. BCS, we use the FK and clear someone and then lynch from a reduced pool, but it's risky.

[Gust Hubb]

D'rek's back!!!!

[Grief]

Beforehand: Hmm, we've went to night, but D'rek said the resolve could be kinda late. It was a fairly fast vote too, so it could be several hours. Oh well, I'll just do some other stuff for a while. There's no rush.
Initial reaction: Hey look, Drek's back.
Now: IT'S BEEN TEN WHOLE MINUTES WHERE IS THE RESOLVE!!!

[Gust Hubb]

Ah how the ugly mob can turn on you...

[Grief]

Mafia is as bad for my brain as it is for my F5 key, I suspect.

Also, D'rek appears to have gone.

[Gust Hubb]

Yeah, I noticed. And no P-S either....sad.

[Path-Shaper]

Geez you guys are jittery, aren't you?

[Gust Hubb]

Doesn't that make you warm and fuzzy inside?

Meng Huo returned to his camp to find that most of the survivors had deserted to return to their families. Meng Huo gathered the troops and lieutenants remaining and proclaimed loudly that he would have to submit to Huang Zhong. The next morning the Nanman lieutenant King Mulu lead one hundred Man troops bearing gold and pearls, elephant tusks and gaur horn to the Yan camp. He was met by the sound of drums and horns as a band of soldiers under He Qi fanned out before him. He Qi lead in Mulu who said, "The King of Kings, grateful to you for sparing his life and having until now presented no tribute to you, has ventured to prepare a number of treasures that may serve to reward your army. The King of Kings has gone south to collect more valuables in the Silver Pit Hills. He should be back shortly." Gu Yong bid Mulu's men be brought into the center clearing of the camp and turned to his commanders, " The Man have laid down their arms. Let us celebrate our union with a great feast!"

Meng Huo was waiting at his camp when two of King Mulu's men came back and informed him, "Gu Yong, most pleased with the gifts,has slaughtered oxen and horses and feasted the whole retinue in the center of the camp. King Mulu asked us to inform you that the action is set for the second watch tonight. Our men are ready to take out the Yan generals and commanders at the feast while you overwhelm the leaderless soldiers." Meng Huo called up all the remaining soldiers, some ten thousand, and they stealthily made their way to the Yan camp. Once within site of the camp, a great bombard was struck and the Nanman troops rushed nto the camp only to find it deserted. Meng Huo charged forward to the center clearing where King Mulu and his entourage lay in drunken stupors. Fires rose up around the camp and the Man soldiers saw they were surrounded by Yan forces. The outermost forces gave battle but were quickly defeated and the remaining Man threw down their weapons in surrender.

Grief is dead. He was King Mulu and Meng Huo

Soon, He Qi brought in Meng Huo. Gu Yong smiled as he said, "Did you expect to fool me by sending your lesser king with gifts, pretending to surrender? Now that I have caught you once again, are you willing to submit?" "You won because Mulu overindulged a bit and fell victim to your poisoned wine. That's what ruined us. Had I come myself and left Mulu to back me up, we would have succeeded. Heaven, not any failure, has defeated me." "I'll have to release you again, then" Gu Yong said. "Exercise extreme caution, study diligently the texts of war, use sound tactics without delay and let us decide this on the battlefield once and for all."

Meng Huo has been captured four out of seven times.
