Technically, it is actually night, and the werewolves are prowling. But I'm glad you're an early riser. Hopefully you can tell us if you see anything suspicious.

Would you keep it down!? Some of us have to work in the morning!

What a lovely day!
Would anyone like some breakfast?
I'm running a special on blueberry muffins 2 for a wijjie!
Get 'em while they're hot!

Has anyone seen the milkman? I'm waiting for a delivery of fresh cream so that I may begin churning my butter. He's 15 minutes late and he's NEVER late...

Hmm, who but a beast of the night would consider the night to be the day??

I just arrived at work. Looking forward to a fun-filled werewolf-lynching day!

I could really go for some waffles this morning.

Ugh, what's with all the screaming? Damn kids and their all night parties!

I could use some breakfast. The muffins sound good Leigh, but I hope you've got some bacon and eggs to go with 'em.

I see you have a taste for meat and flesh!

Just for preemie chickens and dead swine.

Aren't we supposed to be quiet at night? Who's making all that noise?! I bet it's those darned kids staying up all night playing videogames... I'm sure that turns you into a werewolf!!

Don't you see? She's a wolf! Burn her!

I'd like to try a couple of your muffins, Leigh. Keeping baker's hours, I see.

Can't you youngsters keep quiet? Some of us are trying to sleep.

Ahh, this village never changes! I see it's a good thing that I made a LOT of coffee (or caramel lattes for the sandel wearers.) What a bunch of grumpy pants! No matter! Come to my cafe' where the coffee's always hot and the butter's always freshly churned! I'm sorry, Spiff, there is no meat on my menu. I saw too many villagers with gout when I volunteered at the local clinic to keep meat on the menu. It seems I can't give up the butter, though, so slather up!

returns to the kitchen muttering about milkmen and late deliveries

Or somebody ate him!!!!!

IT IS DAY

Grundbegriff had been a wise man, a sharp man.

Now he was a dead man.

Blood was everywhere, soaking many a precious tome in the victim's home. Deep gashes demonstrated an attack of demonic ferocity - but the door had been unlocked by human hands - not by a wild animals. Drawing together, the town realised the truth - werewolves.

In the past decades the old gallows had fallen largely into disuse, except for the odd petty thief for whom imprisonment had not proved sufficient deterrent.

But the village rembers its stories well, and the crowd understood that someone had now to pay with their lives.

----------------------------

Please vote in bold. There are so many of you that I simply will miss the votes otherwise.

Grund?
Dead?
Werewolves?
WHY?!?!
He was my best customer!!

Some one must pay for this dastardly deed.

Poor Grund, I hardly knew ye.

They were trying to get the muffins out of his stomach, maybe?

Making him nice and plump for when you snack on him later?

Yes, she's VERY interested in food isn't she?! Obsessed, one might say... hmmm

Why would they want to do that when I am running a special on them, today? (Get em while they're hot! )

Edit: I'm closing shop. I must go to Mrs. Grund, she must be devastated!
Are...are we sure he's dead?

Are you sure you're not trying to get out of town? Methinks your muffins smell suspicious.

Quick, put up a silver roadblock!

Now, we must adjourn to Grund's former place of residence to comfort his poor widow and seek our revenge on the dastardly wolves.

Stop sniffing my muffins!
Freak!

Wait a minute.
I accuse J.D.!

Because the milkman never made his delivery, I had to make my muffins with reconstituted CoffeeMate. Only someone with an acute sense of smell, like a werewolf would have known this.

Hmmm.... comforting his widow. Motive, perhaps?

Simply because she is so quick to judge, Leigh is my curent vote.

Night comes quickly. Judgement must be swift!
But perhaps my fear made me too hasty. I withdraw my vote for J.D.

Why is it so quiet around here now? Everyone can't comfort the widow at once. We need to find the dastardly canines before they kill us all.

Leigh wavering seems a bit fishy. I shall watch her closely...

Leigh, you better come up with some fantastic evidence to defend yourself or my vote will have to be with you.

I must meditate on this some more before I make my final decision.

tru1cy wrote:Leigh wavering seems a bit fishy. I shall watch her closely...

I agree. I'll keep my vote for her for now... but I'm far from committed to it. We'll see if someone else misbehaves.

Grund first overall ey? I mourn for my fellow villager. Several of you are awfully suspicious about each other. Most of us are perfectly normal humans. If you're a werewolf, raise you're hand. I promise you'll die a quick death.

Not Grund. Oh the humanity!

You didn't happen to throw your hands in the air when crying "Oh, the humanity!".... did you trig?

At this point I have to use my vote for Leigh. While my mind can be changed her wavering and now silence disturbs me a bit. My mind can be changed, but for now Leigh is my choice

Leigh was overly friendly at the beginning of the game. She seemed desperate to win friends among the villagers. Was that because she is actually an enemy among us?

Then there was her quick accusation and withdrawal (against me, no less!) and now mysteriously, she is silent.

Unless strong, convincing evidence is otherwise presented, I accuse Leigh!
