I’ve re-read the game day, and I believe my recipient left a breadcrumb I’d previously been unaware of, so I’m satisfied on that score for now.

Sounds fake but okay.

As the day draws on and the surroundings slowly become all the more desolate the further west the travelers go, they begin to wonder if the person who mentioned a farming settlement had fresh manure between their ears - how could anyone manage to keep one farm thriving this far from everything, let alone a full settlement? The oxen grumbled and lowed as they pulled the lead wagons over a rise... and the shouts of their drivers echoed back along the wagon train. The settlement was not too far up ahead!



Or what was left of it, in any case. Clearly ravaged by raiders not too long ago, scavengers had already taken care of most of the remains - in all senses of that word. Still, the group resolved to stop for a spell and water the oxen, while those who felt inspired (or bored) could go rifle through the wreckage. Still, it was a good-sized settlement before its end, making for quite a lot of ground to cover in any search - certainly far too much to do alone. But that's what traveling companions are for, after all... right?

Bonus Time!

For the rest of the day, all players, as a free action, may either:

##search for anything useful left behind by the ravages of banditry, scavengers, and plain old time.
OR
##assist <player> in their search, because you can't survive alone on this dangerous journey.

You may change your choice as often as you want during the day, but this is being manually tracked so please exercise common sense.

:cheers: The first player to ##search with three other people that ##assist them will receive a 1-Shot bonus! :cheers:

May be obvious question, and I'm assuming so, but just in case because of the wording: if someone searches, they'd be able to switch to assisting, yes?

Also, I was looking at the votes and if BK does turn out to be scum, then both bif and MMT will probably need to be looked at because they both moved off of BK yesterday.

Just a reminder to people. Bif and MMT were the first two votes on BK and then backed off of him to vote IP and IS respectively, although MMT ended up hammering IP.

If people are thinking that BK is scum, then it stands to reason one of Bif/MMT could be scum who was busing BK. It's a little harder to imagine for Bif since the Bif/BK argument was a big part of D1, but MMT slipped in and dropped a 2nd vote on BK and then moved over to Solus without much fanfare before landing on IS.

Also, as a note, after MMT moved her vote from BK, she never mentioned him again until the start of D2 after the loudmouth.

Actually, scratch that, while she doesn't mention BK by name, she does respond to Asiina about BK here (I inserted the relevant quote):

Murmur Twin posted:


Asiina posted:

I'm honestly still feeling BK because what was scummy to me wasn't his confusion with Bif, but the fact that it looked like he'd decided she was scum and everything she did was scum, and that one thing doesn't change that for me.

Haha there are people - and I'm not going to name names - who sometimes, as town, get overconfident in their early cases and develop tunnel vision where they start to see everything someone does as scummy. :ohdearsass:

I feel like that's what their argument reads as to me.

So if BK does flip scum, I do think MMT looks pretty bad. So people might want to be careful about giving her the 1 shot power.

I think I'd be more likely to give it to Bif.
