Day 5

Horizon-Zero-Dawn-Watchers.jpg

​
The tribe was settled. HADES and Helis were dead. The machines were free. But were they trustworthy? The machines they'd been fighting for generations still stalked the land. Most numerous among them, the Watchers. With their piercing gaze, and sudden movements, they seemed the least trustworthy. With mysterious happenings still bringing trouble to the tribe, they set out for a hunt.

Their sights set on one particular machine. A previous tool of the HADES network, now free. With voices whispering in their ear, uncertainty, anxiety, and doubt poisoning their minds, they advanced in force and stuck down the Watcher in the field.

Dead is @Ms Procrastinator/@Lawpy , who was a Watcher, a village machine who could watch a player each night.

It is now night 5. Please submit your night actions ASAP. We will be accelerating to 12/12 moving forward. Night Close will be one hour early at 9am EST.​
 
Tinfoil: April is wolfy tinkerer. Mel being busy on wards had a bussing plot with her from the start. She does control where items go, making them mostly irrelevant to the wolfy plans as they just kill around the items.
Why would I have sent the first one to you then?
 
I don't remember what happened to other people but I was never redirected
Just weird TME'S result tracked you to me the night I got the item, that's all.

Makes sense Mel was somehow involved, just don't know how you don't control items but that result TME had.

Unless it's RNGd the items going from you to whoever, and if a tracker observes you sees this "flow". Makes sense.

Even though I don't get to decide where to deliver an item, I still have to be the one to deliver it so if someone else tracks me or watches you they'll see me visit you
 
Night 5

No one slept that night. They felt unsafe, uneasy. Some thought it was better to keep busy, others locked themselves inside. The Sun-King paced his throne room again, lost in an important decision. Petra had orders to develop a new weapon, something that could take down any human or machine, something that would give them an edge against the elusive enemy that still threatened them from the shadows. But she still didn't know who, or what, they were fighting. The Stormbird settled on a mesa, watching from what it thought was a safe distance. They had a plan. It could not fail. Talanah cleaned her weapons obsessively, ready for any attack. Sona stood watch outside the war party camp, her thoughts fractured by the news of her son's demise at the hands of his fellow Braves.

Why does it feel like we're running out of time?

When the sun rose, it glinted off a metal shape in the canyon. The Stormbird was dead.

Dead is @Crayola227, who was the Stormbird, a village machine and blocker

Sylens gazed at the lantern, the AI trapped inside emanating an angry light. He smiled.

"Knowledge has its rewards, don't you think? Well... let's begin."

In case a reminder is needed, cubs is likely untargetable, so if you yeet me before him, he will be unstoppable and village will lose.

If he flips village, you can shoot me.

I don't know. But I know everyone has been disabled when they attempt to do things to him.
Do we actually know it's "everyone"? I thought it was just Cray and Lawpy. I don't know if anyone else acted on him at a different point, but I have a hard time believing everyone in this game is a machine
 
If I had more time I'd go back through the dead people and see what the ratio is of machines/characters just out of curiosity

I sure wasn't testing it by touching him myself. I don't know if everyone is a machine, but if shorty is, he is not stoppable.

Well played Wolf!wife. Perfect frame job. I dont think there's much else I can do.

vote AM
Well played? You realize coming from a v! cubs perspective, I would still be outted after your yeet and immediately lose, right?

It's only well played if you lose here.
 
@Animal Midwife do you have any other reason to believe that Cubs is wolf besides raw POE or are you just following the plan?
