At that moment LSB came back and muttered, “Empty, it’s empty.” Something is empty..but what? | ||

“Kav, take a look at the paper.” I took the paper from LSB’s hands, and right there on the front page “Naval Intervention Ends Pirates Standoff.” “What do you see?” Inspector LSB questioned. LSB is a genius, his methods of solving crimes are legendary and I document his adventures. He asks me this questions, to try to get me to see what he sees. “But why? Why did the pirates take over the fort?” This part along with the empty part is the message from the day. I'll look at it after I finish this Catan game I'm in. | ||

I was thinking exactly that. Jonathan Swift was always looking to make it big in society. He tried unsuccessfully to political position so maybe that's why the pirates took governor hostage. It wasn't money they were looking for, which Holmes alluded to, it was power. Also, the pen and crossing out might be referring to the fact that he revised Gulliver's travels many times. In Gulliver's travels, he, for a while, worked with pirates to travel to different lands. All of this though, is only loosely tied to what's written. I still don't know why the pen "being positioned wrong" and the "it's empty" means. What is empty? The place? Is the fact that it's devoid of life the clue? | ||

Let's hear some of your own opinions instead of being so unsure about everything you're saying. | ||

Ok, so here's answers to people's questions. As soon as I saw red ink and people disappearing in the first post I thought about Gulliver's Travels. Johnathan Swift was a writer who, for his whole life, wanted to get into a high position in society, trying many times. That's what I assumed the kidnapping of the governor to be since Holmes was questioning why the pirates did that in the first place. In his books, which I assumed were used since Swift used Gulliver as a pseudonym, Gulliver joins up with a group of pirates/gets marooned by them and they "disappear" into the sky and end up in Laputa which would explain why no one was there anymore and thus the "empty". I didn't think of 18th century references as the reason for thinking about Gulliver's Travels. I might have just read too much into it since it's one of my favorite books. I voted Node cause I thought his posts were really wishy washy in the beginning, he didn't really settle on one thing and was mentioning two people's profiles and asking everyone what they thought which was exactly how I played mafia in the previous Mini game so I wanted to pressure him. When people got really onboard with the Jackel vote, I didn't want to push Node cause that would just give mafia a way of splitting the town vote so I didn't push it farther. As for the clues, Holden Caulfield, while he hated others, was against killing others due to his older brother, Allie's, death. I don't know about the bridge thing though, that's not in The Catcher in the Rye at all, I don't think he's ever in the same place as his parents, only his sister. | ||

3. Apocalypse now -> The Motion Picture Soundtrack (song on OST of Apocalypse Now, the movie) was made by Radiohead, and guess who is the lead singer for Radiohead? Thom Yorke. I can't seem to find this anywhere. I mean, I can find the song and I know when you google it+radiohead you get a video of the sound+AN but I can't seem to find the track listed on any of the OST | ||

I thought the clues were too easy but everyone was so gung ho about it and I wasn't 100% sure myself so I didn't say anything. After he flipped red the only people i'm pretty sure aren't mafia are wiggles, shann and node now just cause they were so quick to jump on Jackal. You'll probably somehow tie me to the clues like you tried to do today. I mean, bridge? to a magic set? really? That's not even part of Catcher in the Rye... =p I still don't trust you cause this could all be some big mafia ploy which i wouldn't put past you. | ||

The idea that Jackal's death was bussed is still very much in my head. The way I see it happening is like this. Wiggles and Node provide really solid analysis of the clues and the mafia, seeing that he'd probably get lynched, jumped first to bus him before any townie could vote for him. When he flipped Red, the first person (Dr. H) could always fall back on "why would I bus my own teammate day 1 when no one else had voted for him yet" even though in reality, he was already on the chopping block, mafia just wanted to seem pro town. With Kenpachi's little remarks about how Dr. H is the most pro-town, people would start to think, yeah, maybe he IS pro town and not mafia at all. If you notice, wiggles, node, and shann already put a lot of pressure on Jackal already in the beginning. Dr. H was too busy talking about pandas and whether they eat people or not and all of a sudden busts out with this: On January 30 2011 09:50 DoctorHelvetica wrote: ##Vote Jackal58 The only connection to Jonathan Swift is that he wrote a satire called "A Modest Proposal" which advocated eating children in poor Ireland to solve the hunger problem. That could be connected to the disappearance of bodies but its verrrrry tentative. Jackal58 is the strongest clue connection aside from Shann I guess. But Shann could really fit anything and Q doesn't jump out as me as much as Carlos the Jackal does. when his previous posts had all been talking about pandas with Pandain and darmousseh | ||

I won't actually do modkills this game, since I realize that if Mafia is inactive, the clues can just pown them But I am looking for replacements I'mma quote this from LSB cause i'm reading through the thread. Is he implying mafia were inactive? | ||
