GAME 2 - Night 3

[protoshepherd]

[ OOCly, the rules are pretty much clear! Sheep can win by voting out ALL the wolves. Wolves win when there are less than three sheep teams left. That is what it says on the rules feature of the cellphone, too. But it seems that the text earlier in the day stated otherwise...

It's about time for the suspicion poll to close. And to start off the new poll, everybody receives 1 new message. ]

[ However, there is no "reply" option yet again.

It's eerily unsettling how this text isn't as coherent and how the words aren't properly formed, huh? There doesn't seem to be anything new, either. There is no fresh food served - you'll have to make do with the breakfast food... which Dandy has conveniently thrown on the floor.

Hey! There's that vending machine. Raid that shit (aka punch it, break it, etc.). There's soda, potato chips, cookies, and other unhealthy snacks. It should at least tide everyone for the evening. ]

[ 00 EST 28 April: Ousting poll draws to a close. A new day begins, with two teams out of the game. ]

What reasons? Do those reasons outweigh the fact that Mr. Cabanela's partner is the only person, aside from Prince Hans, who could possibly have been voting in the interest of helping Mr. Lockhart and Mr. Springfield survive the first ousting as a fellow wolf?

[notaccurate]

I'm not thinking about just them, in this case. I am thinking about everyone. Because other teams voted for Kelly's team without being wolves, there is a possibility that Cabanela's team did so as well.

Which means we need to figure out why a wolf team would vote for another wolf team, especially if their vote may have been the vote that caused a tie. If we can figure out that possibility, we will have our answer.

[thefaceofjustice]

Only the wolves knew at the time what side anyone was on, so it's not strange that sheep were voting for both of them. But it remains only Mr. Pinkman who could have used a vote with the intention to save the same team that Prince Hans voted for.

...And still you think that a wolf team nearly eliminating one of their own in the first round, when they had the voting power to keep that team safe instead, is more likely than Inspector Cabanela and Mr. Pinkman being wolves.

You didn't answer my question, and if it's pivotal enough to completely convince you on its own--even with the possibility that the reasons were a set-up--then I think everyone needs to know. We need to weigh all the evidence.

[notaccurate]

This is assuming that the wolves have absolutely no dissent in their numbers, and are working together perfectly. If we are all truly strangers, then they would be newly met allies, and they may have conflicts of interest.

That, or they specifically did not want to vote Kelly's team out, and had to vote fir their fellow wolves.

As for the reasons for trusting Cabanela...I don't know the details, but they were working on something risky that may have led to our escape.

[thefaceofjustice]

I wouldn't count on dissent. If a wolf sabotages another wolf like that, they're really hurting themselves.

...Ending this game seems like the most likely way to get out of here to me. Refusing to take it seriously is prolonging it and making more of us disappear.

[notaccurate]

But at this point, what ends the game faster: two nights in a row of getting wolves, or incorrectly voting and getting sheep out?

And since we know people die, which is the more honorable way to end things?

[yeahscience]

Hey, you know that you just saying the same thing over and over again doesn't make it true, right? It's actually pretty freaking suspicious, considering as you don't got anything to actually back it up.

[thefaceofjustice]

The ousting poll information is available to everyone, Mr. Pinkman. Do I need to open it up on your phone for you?

[yeahscience]

Alls you got is a name and a number, yo. We told you why the vote went down the way it did. You got anything that says your story ain't just that? A story?

[thefaceofjustice]

The fact is that if a wolf was protecting Mr. Lockhart and Mr. Springfield, it could only be you. We have nothing to determine if what Inspector Cabanela instructed you is a fact, or a story.

[yeahscience]

Like I said: you saying over and over again that it was me doesn't make it me. In fact? This whole shitty argument of yours is based on you not being able to let it go that it might be somebody else. That's called a fallacy, bitch.

[thefaceofjustice]

I will restate the facts that back it up, Mr. Pinkman.

The two teams that didn't vote were Ms. Grace and Mr. Tao, confirmed sheep... and Mr. Aoi and Ms. Yuuki, who can't possibly be wolves at the same time as Mr. Lockhart and Mr. Springfield, since they were in the same clue. There is only one wolf team per clue.

Of the teams that voted for the team opposite of Mr. Lockhart and Mr. Springfield-- that is, Ms. Kelly and Dr. Grey... they were Prince Hans, who we've determined is very likely to be the wolf we caught, Mr. Banner, who has been proven to be a sheep by being removed by the wolves, Ms. L'Arachel, who can't be a wolf at the same time as Mr. Lockhart and Mr. Springfield since she was in the second clue and we know we've ousted a wolf... that leaves only your vote, Mr. Pinkman.

[yeahscience]

Which is all still assuming a whole bunch of stuff. Like, assuming you're right about the Prince. Assuming you're right about Lockhart and Springfield, which, if you are? Why ain't they the ones on the chopping block, here?

And assuming that the badger's telling the truth when he's already lied to us, by the by. Assuming you ain't on his side. ASS - U - ME. Is it true you're LAPD? Doesn't that make you, like, more likely than any of us to be siding with him?

[notaccurate]

Truthfully, that there was why my suspicions were on them at first.

[yeahscience]

...yeah, why the hell are we even talking to this guy? Either he's with the same org as the people that put us in here, or he's so freaking incompetent that they put him in here as like, what, a way of firing his ass? Either way, he's got mad connections and mad incentive here.

[notaccurate]

I'm leaning more towards incompetent now, to be honest.

Though I suppose they could be a wolf AND incompetent.

[yeahscience]

Why not? Team Hansel probably kinda was.
