Greetings, all! For a change of pace, I'm happy to announce a new game called Rabbit Doubt (idea courtesy of Tyranomaster3). This is a game which requires careful strategy (and a bit of luck) to secure victory for your team. The gameplay will be accompanied by narrative portions to increase the immersion of the experience. All of the details can be found at the link below:

If you are interested in playing, please post in this thread. I'll leave sign-ups open for 48-ish hours to see how many players we get. Of course, it's always more fun with more people. Then the game will begin! :D

If at any time you have questions regarding gameplay, please PM me and I'll try to get back to you as soon as possible.

As requested, spots have been reserved in advance for miss snopes, Sleuth Sindy, and Sal Iva.

The Yeti doth protest too much, methinks. And why is Sal Iva so quiet I wonder...feeling a bit dry?

Gah, what did I do to you people? I thought we were all one big happy family here and I have everyone's back!

As the sun dropped over the horizon and darkness descended upon the group of explorers, they were filled with an increasing sense of unease. Their attempts at escape over the past several hours had proved futile, and suspicion and distrust was rife.

To make matters worse, they had no food save for what they had brought with them, and perhaps some edible vegetation in the area. Water had pooled in some of the stony depressions from the morning's rain, but that was all they had. Finally, no one seemed to be able to find a way out; every route they explored just led to a dead end with walls far out of reach.

The only thing they had found all day was what appeared to be a short length of rope, which seemed useless in and of itself. In wordless agreement, the explorers scattered to find their own spaces to sleep for the night. Their minds were busy. Were one or more of them really responsible for this? Could they trust each other? ...Would any of them truly be able to sleep tonight?

The explorers were rudely awakened by a high-pitched scream. They scrambled awake to find that one of their own had been killed during the night. Alone in a grassy area behind a broken chunk of rock lay Zara, with a pool of blood around her. It appeared she had suffered multiple blows to the head and had bled out during the night. The explorers' stomachs twisted with horror as they stared at her, none daring to say the first word. For they were all thinking the same thing: only one of their own could have done this horrible deed. But who?

The day phase has now begin. Communication on this thread is now open until 20:00 server time. During this time, players may share what they have learned during the night, if they so wish. Additionally, each player *MUST* cast a vote before the day's end. To vote for another player to be hanged, use "VOTE: Player Name" (and "UNVOTE: Player Name" if you change your mind). To abstain, use "NO VOTE."

Zara turned up dead, huh? My, my, my.

You know who visited Zara last night? No other than Sleuth Sindy.

VOTE: Sleuth Sindy

Yeti, if I had had the opportunity to kill someone off, it would have been you.

VOTE: Yeti Face

Do you deny you visited Ms Zara, you filthy murderer?

I was at the Battery Boardwalk playing a Furore this morning. I had no time for nefarious activities, nor the energy to carry them out. My dogs woke me up this morning after two hours of sleep. :/
