Who is the Murderer? {Game}

...and wait for the real round to get started... Where we can start playing the blaming game detective! ;)

le awesome me

So, there you go. My expectation has come true... and it's even more than what I could've bargained for!

Me, the murderer, eh? Nice try - sure, all those clues do make me seem a tad more suspicious, but hold your horses first before you set them loose and trample me to a death that I will love to take vengeance on you for jumping to conclusions too quickly. ;)

Let's go point by point - or rather, all the things that tag me as the prime suspect:

Red Herring #1

Sorry guys - I was having class just now. OTL As Shoryu has said, blame the timezone difference. XD

Anyway, my vote goes to... *cues in drum roll*

@NekoMizu

Well, it'd be fun to keep everyone in the game for the first round at least since I've no idea what's going on atm school killed my brain it feels like we're all testing out the waters for now, I'll "even out" the votes and wait for the real round to get started... Where we can start playing the blaming game detective! ;)

tsukune

1. He said, "I've no idea what's going on atm." How can you not know what's going on at the moment? Can't you read? Didn't you read the part where @Luna_Maria said she's the murderer? So why aren't you voting for her? Why are you making it look like you didn't read what she wrote and instead voting for someone else who isn't trying to look like a big red target? Why are you being deceptive at all?

2. He said, "I'll 'even out' the votes and wait for the real round to get started." How do you ALREADY know that voting for @NekoMizu won't win the game already since it's possible that she's the murderer or, for that matter, @Witch Cat? Maybe because, you ARE the murderer.

3. Tsukune (or the real murderer) has eliminated me off in round one, probably because he knew I would vote for him in round 2 and that I was working very hard to find the murderer. now, it's possible that @Dinh AaronMk knew I would start pointing fingers at Tsukune the moment I got eliminated, in which cause, bravo, Dinh is a genius, but do I really believe knew exactly what I would do? No. The obvious answer is that Tsukune IS the murderer.

@Luna_Maria

1. That post of mine you quoted was, sadly, as plain and literal as the words I've written, with no (evil) ulterior motive. I honestly had no idea what's going on because everyone simply cast their vote without a single explanation why they suspected that particular player to be a murderer, which I assumed that everyone was voting each other randomly in the first round. Also, I did read your parts about you ranting around (even in caps!) to call for everyone to vote you as the murderer - and later the real murderer took up that "gracious offer" and eliminated you - but the reason why I didn't respond to any of your callings was simple: I'm trying to find out who the real murderer is, just like you and all those who aren't the murderer. I'm not going to waste my precious vote on something blatantly obvious as this. (I'm sorry that I have to put it bluntly, because it is that obvious.)

2. Whoa, whoa - aren't you jumping to conclusions too fast there? Before I cast my first vote, this was the stats posted by the host, Shoryu:

Here's the next status update;

@NekoMizu - 1 Vote
@Witch Cat - 2 Votes
@Duthguy - 1 Vote
@Luna_Maria - 1 Vote

@tsukune, and @Mae, still need to vote. A clear majority vote has not been determined, so this round continues. Just so you all know, if we end up with multiple people that have the same number of votes, a bonus round takes place where the only people that can be voted for are the people who had the highest number.

@Shoryu Magami

Looking at the numbers, I have three obvious choices:
One, I can vote for Witch Cat, which will immediately eliminate them out of the game and we move on to Round Two; or
Two, I can vote for anyone in the list and "even out" the votes, so that we have two players tying with each other, which will trigger the bonus round, in turn allowing all players to play the game longer before one has to leave; or
Three, I can vote for the other players not on the list, either Dinh or Mae.

I went for the second option, which is what I mean by "evening out the votes" - this IS my true motive in the first round, to make things more fun. To cast that vote, here's another clue that you've surprisingly missed out:

Well, at least I have been casting my vote using the fairest method - ask the dice and leave it to my shitty luck whenever in doubt, yes.

tsukune

Reiterating point (1), I cast my first (and also the second) vote by rolling the dice. Okay, maybe you can argue that only the murderer will use such method since s/he IS the murderer, and therefore it doesn't matter who s/he kills as long as no one finds out the real murderer's identity. Wrong. Just like the rest of the non-murderer players, the murderer can do the same and use deductive reasoning like what you did to eliminate the player who may pose potential danger to them. Also, if I am the murderer, would I be so careless to spell out that I'm using a gamble to vote for someone?

3. I shan't repeat whatever I've already said in points (1) and (2) again. And if you really did vote me off, I can only shake my head at how easily you jumped to conclusions without taking a step back and scrutinize at the clues carefully, just like Kogoro Mouri from Detective Conan.

Regarding the status thing:

Red Herring #2

I want to set one thing straight though;

Witch Cat - 1 day ago: Has anyone ever actually used the "Add Friend" feature? I swear it seems so weird to have it on a RP site. (But I mean, if anyone is looking for friends, I'm here)

Shoryu Magami - 1 day ago: @Witch Cat I use it to add friends. Those on good terms with me get added, since I'm more interested in community than RPing; I've got my own writing, after all. I know others who also use it.

tsukune - 1 day ago: @Witch Cat Or, if you want you can think of it this way: a handy list to stalk certain people without them knowing you're watching their every move... *insert Halloween-style evil laughter here*

Shoryu Magami - 1 day ago: @tsukune Shhhhhh, quit giving away our secrets.

The context of the "secret" between me and tsukune (from the status bar)

@Shoryu Magami

I bet those who think I'm the murderer using this as the clue totally didn't take Witch Cat's status into account.

There's one other clue - the post our host said after I posted about the dice-throwing:

Lol, in all fairness, I picked the murderer that way. I'm obviously not telling you what number I rolled, but I basically just let the order that you joined the game in be the deciding factor for that one. Also, I definitely relate to you on the shitty luck.

@Shoryu Magami

Coupled with what he did to me in the status... if you can't see the link between the two, I'll be very disappointed in your deduction skills.

sorry, @NekoMizu, i voted you out, but i probably shouldn't if my first priority was so you guys could win

witch cat is my friend. i would never vote out a friend even if it means losing the game

@Luna_Maria

Though, your loyalty towards your friends is remarkable.

Megumi Yazawa

夜澤　めぐみ


_{"Control that power, and you can soar even greater heights; let that power to control you, and you'll be drowned in your sins."}

|| "Meg" | Female | 112 | Vampire ||

At 161 cm (roughly 5' 3"), Meg has a willowy build that radiates confidence and authority, defying the traditional notion of a Yamato nadeshiko for the women of her race. Often people are curious how she maintains her silky-black long locks to perfection without so much of a single stray strand sticking out oddly; she has heart-shaped face with upward-slanting eyes and full lips. Her wardrobe screams of class - from branded clothes to designer shoes - but she does have a few comfort wears reserved for "off" days.

Tobio Yazawa

夜澤　飛雄


_{"You don't demand others to give you their trust; you'll have to earn that yourself first."}

|| "Toby" | Male | 18 | Newborn ||

Quite tall for a Japanese - standing at a towering 179 cm (roughly 5' 10"), Toby is often mistaken as a Korean or Chinese simply because of the stereotype that all Japanese people are short. Considerably well-built, but still on the lean side if you really want to compare with the Caucasian standard; when combined with his height he looks a tad older than his actual age. He's not "yellow-skinned" like how you Americans see Asians; his complexion is actually quite fair, even paler after becoming a vampire. He has short tousled black hair with bangs falling over his red eyes (they're originally brown before the transformation), squarish face with prominent jawline that is cleanly shaven. His usual dress code can be summarized with just three words: smart, casual and simple. He doesn't like extravagant clothes or wasting too much time to dress up, so long he looks presentable - give him a plain shirt and a pair of jeans, and he's all good to go.

Ban the Person above you

Banned because you're too awesome.

GAME: Crush A Wish

Granted, but all of them turned out to be insufferable assholes that you start regretting about making that wish.

I wish that Samsung Galaxy Note 7 just didn't exist.

Who is the Murderer? {Game}

*rolls a dice*

The result is... unfortunately, @Witch Cat.

Well, at least I have been casting my vote using the fairest method - ask the dice and leave it to my shitty luck whenever in doubt, yes.

Eisbeulf

A small, secluded suburb town near the majestic Laurentian mountain range in the southern part of Quebec, Canada, Eisbeulf is one of those 'perfect' places for any vampires to settle down for a longer stay. Other than its little exposure to direct sunlight due to shorter summer period with longer, bitter cold winter, the quiet town has a pretty small population, though it has increased significantly over the last couple of years. The residents are generally reserved, and they don't interact with each other too much beyond what's necessary. The town has quite a sizeable Asian population, in which most of them are offsprings of the immigration boom to Canada between 1970-1990s. Surrounding Eisbeulf is a lush coniferous forest that stretches on for miles to the mountains towards the north and west with a river cutting across somewhere among the sea of green, and a lovely lake at the southeastern side that freezes over during the coldest months of winter, although residents are recommended not to walk on the ice due to its erratic thickness at different places.

Eisbeulf University

Other than nature enthusiasts who want to enjoy the clean, fresh air from the Laurentians, Eisbeulf University is also one of the reasons for the population increase in the small town. It largely focuses on the sciences; thanks to its close proximity to the Laurentian range, subjects that are related or make use of the natural habitat around them such as Biomedical Science, Zoology, and even non-science courses like Sustainable Design are offered at the institution. In recent years, the college has expanded its programs to draw in more students. The school building design mimics Gothic architecture style, complete with pointed arches and flying buttress. Some said that it was actually reconstructed from an abadoned cathedral built when the French and later the British settled down in Canada during the 1500-1600s.

Lait Écrémé

Translates to "skimmed milk" in French, Lait Ecreme is a modern-style cafe well-known in the town for their special latte art. They offer free internet and have a quiet, homely atmosphere inside, and students can often be found at their tables. It opens from 8 AM to 10 PM daily, and the cafe has three shifts: morning, noon, and evening.

Vampires

Ignoring all the gay sparkling bullshits of Meyer's failed attempt to break out of the classic Dracula vamps, the more important part about her army of diamond zombies them is the special abilities certain vampires may acquire after the transformation. These powers are more likely due to amplification of the human's strongest trait from their previous life rather than due to possible side effects from the venom.
