i really doubt the bridge collapsed due to old age on the same day the wolves emerged. it was obviously a trick to lure us away so they could use the distraction as a chance to attack, but i guess this is obvious.

was it in bad enough condition that any group of 3 could take it down if they worked together, or would they have to have tools or demolition experience?

Hey... Don't military people use those weird silent hand signals? like... Marines or those Special Operations types? It's like in my book... she holds up her book, pointing to the Author on the back

About this dirt and grass on the body... Is it loose? Like it was sprinkled on top or is it pressed onto the body?

Could you go into more detail about the hand signal?Is there anything in the area he could've tripped over?

Doesn't seem like it really takes all this extensive knowledge beforehand to give a hand-signal. You've never seen those movies when they say "when I give the signal do this", and it works? Doesn't require a Navy Seal to do that. It is our only lead at the moment, so lets make the best of it I suppose?

Eyes Wolf Carlson from a distance.

Poor svcker must'a lost it.

So it seems nobody is interested in investigating one of the loops yet.
I am not going to sit around here and do nothing so the fire pit it is!

Bridge please.

My, my, you sure are curious critters.

Well, like I said. The bridge was old - very old. It was made of wood - the owners here think that added to the charm of the place.

Bill Wilson

There's some that's loose, but... Hold on. He wipes at the shirt a bit, plugging his nose for dramatic effect while he stands over the body. Looks like about half of it comes loose, but there's still a bit of dirt and grass that resists.

Nathan

Well... It was like what an umpire does, when he sticks his thumb up and signals over his shoulder to call a batter out. Except, I didn't see a thumb on accounts of that wolf not having opposable thumbs. Know what I mean? And yes, there's these benches all around the firepit... But I don't think I saw anyone tripping over them.

Dana

Great idea Tom, now lets just give everyone bats so they can swing wildly...

Seriously... she sighs

I can't believe they put you in charge.... You don't even have all the skills to be a ranger... you're more like... a bugle boy... she huffs

Anyway... It's highly unlikely we'll get any more information until our respected searches so lets all umm... moves away from the body Take a swim till it's time to search?

hmm so it was a womans scream that made the wolves disband, that means at least one of the women is innocent.

other then that info, there is not much else we know, or can find out, until tomorrow. and by that time, the wolves will take another life.

Are you sure it was a woman and not some certain adolescent boy?

Begins to whisper
Ain't no way this can be good for that child.

i dont know, just look at that kid, he is so upbeat its stupid. i doubt he would scream at the wolves, who knows. maybe some of the men here just scream like girls. :teehee:

Simon Lamb

can you describe each of the wolves appearances as best as you can?

» Fri Jun 11, 2010 7:09 am

OOC: So by the rules, if I were to vote someone right now they would be executed? Or can no one vote first day? I don't have the intention of doing it, I just thought it would be a real [censored] if I did that to someone.

OOC: I'm never gonna' live it down, am I?

Phoney Bone

Well, since we've run the so-called "organized wolves" into the ground, how 'bout we try looking at that last one. The straggler. Either he's stupid, a loner, doesn't like the others, or just doesn't care. I just can't stand these self-centered types, their so annoying, selfish, and make life more difficult for ME!

Marcus. He's blind to social cues. Might not be able to understand a simple hand gesture.
The kid, Finn. He has trouble understanding "trickery." He might not be able to latch on to a simple hand signal himself.
Sunshine. He's some loner, and not a team player at all.
That janitor. With the magazines. What's his name...Scruffy, yeah. He's a no-good, lazy, pressure-ignoring, no work ethic...person-thing!
Phil, another lone wolf.
Bill. He's meek, unmotivated, and needs supervision to get anything done.
Wayne. He doesn't like to trust others. Maybe the wolf's tardiness was a sign of hesitation to follow the rest? Ah, whatever!
Sara. ANOTHER loner!
Michael West. He's another well-to-do rich man, like me, but he prefers to stick to the sidelines. And when he does act, which is only when someone tells him to, it's reluctantly.

That seems like a pretty good list! Already, I can feel the net closing in around these wolves! They'll rue the day they decided to get in the way of Phonincible P. Bone!

EDIT--

OOC: So by the rules, if I were to vote someone right now they would be executed? Or can no one vote first day? I don't have the intention of doing it, I just thought it would be a real [censored] if I did that to someone.

Also, the player receiving the most execution votes will be executed. At least 20% of players must vote for that person for the execution to occur. A double execution happens if 50% or more of players vote and the top two suspects are tied for votes. Triple executions won't happen, so don't bother!

well its an ok list considering we dont have much to go on, but we really cant come to any conclusive decision on who the wolf is until we search.

We're definitely missing something with the soil. Anyone got any theories?

» Fri Jun 11, 2010 8:15 am

Simon Lamb

Ranger Tom

Well, there was one that looked pretty big, and three that looked smaller than him... And the smaller ones were all pretty much the same height as each other. They all had similar builds as well. Oh! And they all had claws and pointy ears, too.

Other than that, the fire silhouette obscured any finer details.

» Fri Jun 11, 2010 2:24 am

Simon Lamb

uugh. well it seems all we can do is wait.

Mr.Bone does make a good point about Marcus, but it is far from enough to get me to vote for him.

» Fri Jun 11, 2010 1:03 pm

Sunshine

How much of his body was covered in soil? Is there evidence of soil being taken from the ground near by? Any bruising on the body where the soil is?

Edit: Does the soil have any markings on it? How muddy is the ground around the campsite at the minute?

Edit 2: What is his facial expression? Surprised, scared?

» Fri Jun 11, 2010 12:35 pm

Simon Lamb

wait, who are you?, how long have you been here?

I've been here the whole time. I'm Scruffy the janitor.

OOC: I'm never gonna' live it down, am I?

Phoney Bone
[*] That janitor. With the magazines. What's his name...Scruffy, yeah. He's a no-good, lazy, pressure-ignoring, no work ethic...person-thing!

Well thanks for remembering my name stranger though I don't recall seeing you here earlier. Anyway to those of you here that think searching the bridge should wait is a bad idea. Scruffy thinks that we should get it out the way now intead of having it nag at us like a foot fungus.

Finally Scruffy is curious to whether the fallen ranger saw the attack coming or was he unprepared? Secondly approximately how long did it take for Mark to die?

Herr Doktor Otto Willheimer Starkhelm von Hamster-lockern

Well in the interest of narrowing down the suspect pool, I'll throw my vote against Trent Knowles, on the basis that his reserved, calculating and planning character fits the actions of the arch wolf more cleanly than anybody else, and on his unusual actions (the singing, specifically) before the murder.

Oh, and I'll search the bridge.

» Fri Jun 11, 2010 9:38 am

Sunshine

I'm all for the intent but why the hell is singing suspicious? Even if it's out of character it's hardly ... dangerous activity?

» Fri Jun 11, 2010 10:15 am

Simon Lamb

yeah i agree with sunshine, its not enough to warrant his death.

» Fri Jun 11, 2010 6:02 am

Marty
Already we throwin' votes against someone? Dayum. A little too eager, I think, sit me out for tonight.

Draws Inuit knife and begins to sharpen it, as if waiting for something to happen.
