In the Black Fang headquarters of Khanduras, most of the Fang's top ranked officers and agents have assembled in the ruined dining room to hatch a scheme on which their survival depends. Against the oncoming legions of hell, what desperate plot will they form to escape oblivion ?


Another assassin walks into the shadowy dining hall, gently closing the large door behind him. He finds his peers sitting on stools, chairs and even tables in a semicircle at the end of the room. As the Fang operative gets closer, Denning's disjointed locution becomes clearer:

"...from the brink of extinction will the vestiges of the Black Fang rise once again, like broiling embers stirred by the coals of terror..."

Ephidel's sinister voice slowly picked up where the former speaker's sentence died off:

"...depending on the choices our leadership makes", he cautiously said before flashing a look at his sister Sonia.

"Then stake your choice. Every dagger counts", challenged Legault in his most serious tone.

The newcomer brushed past this man they called the Hurricane, and seized an empty seat.

"Hah? Since when are we a democracy?", mocked the strident Vaida at the expense of a bemused Hurricane. Some broken laughters in the group showed appreciation for her cantankerous humor, but they were instantly muted by Sonia.

"Enough!"

The woman had authority among the Fang.

"You've all heard the reports. The Burning Hells' dark champions are at our very doorsteps. The rumors of demonic influence having infiltrated our organization are now confirmed. Swift countermeasures must be put into motion."

The massive hallway doors screeched loudly to announce the arrival of a pair of Fang misfits, failing badly at subtlety.

Mod
this may be a stupid question, but I know you changed some of the rules around so I'll ask, can anyone daykill or only those with it mentioned in their pms?

I don't think they'll claim with only four votes on them.

I'm confused. Is there a fast deadline I missed, or are you just posting this to post it?

Right now he's at L-3, and it's only been three days. I don't think we need to rush quite that fast.

Vote: litral
Lets take your advice on this one.

Vote: populartajo
because he is player #15 which is the cube root of 3375.

Also his only post is implying potential lurking as well, which is DGB-bait.

There is a 2-3 week deadline so why are you rushing to vote out someone?

If we waste a week on the random voting phase, that means we only have 1-2 weeks to ferret out scum and reach a majority lynch. Farside22's indignation smells of faking townie, and not reading the game. I don't like it.

If w!nt3r doesn't show up soon, I'll be in a position to daykill him.

unvote, vote: farside22

So you think quick votes really are an answer with a 1 to 2 week deadline with no discussion. Mmmm I smell something scummy and it begins with a "D".

the problem is that this large game has a relatively short deadline. If 3 ppl in a row go for 3 days without posting, a significant amount of game stall could occur, which could take up a large portion of deadline. By creating a speed lynch system for lurkers, we can stop people leaving for extended periods when we require a response.

The fact w!nt3r hasn't posted yet is just an example of this. He is currently at the highest votes, and we are delaying scum hunting by accusing DGB of quick lynching with no reason. I'm happy with people being speed lynched if they don't post for 5 days, and this way people don't have to waste potential one-shot dayvigs killing inactives.

Wrong - what better to get the discussion going than starting a vigorous, quick, random bandwagon? We need to have something to talk about, we need someone under pressure.

Presently I think only scum would call me "scummy" for trying to whip the game into a fast start, get some action and initiate discussion by creating action. And who might that scum be... farside22, maybe?

Vote stays.

If Winter doesn't show up, and gets speedlynched, I doubt there will be anything to discuss other than, "Well, who do we speedlynch next?"

That said, while I'm not a fan of "lurker" (or in this case, inactive) lynches, if it came down to a deadline, this isn't too far fetched of an idea considering the circumstances.
When in doubt, tell the truth.
