 		I have no idea what to do with today's turn:

T.V.'s reply to my last turn:
Quote:
The other traveler, expressing his shock, turns to the Queen and blurts out, "Who are you?!"

You cry out, exasperated, "Oh, come on, Lairo! I'm right here! Unbelievable."

She begins to explain, but you stop her short.

"Sure, right, right..." Then you turn to Kyle, who seems very confused, and say, "I don't suppose you know where we can find some soil do you? I need to, ah, plant that piece of dust I just dropped in your pot."

After a few seconds, an expression of realization appears on Kyle's face, and he waves points at the door. He wants you to follow. You walk with him out the door, leaving the Grand Ballroom, and you find yourself back in the room with the statue.

The three of you are at the bottom of a grand staircase that goes up to the left and to the right, with a great statue in the middle of a stout man wearing a top hat. There is a door to your left and to your right. Behind you is the doorway to the Grand Ballroom. Next to the door on your left is another staircase leading down. Directly in front of you is an enormous door

You listen at the door and hear what sounds like a person lost in thought – he may even be snoring.

Just then, behind you, another door opens, and three travelers come out! You have to think fast, so you dash inside the room with the roaches and click the door shut quietly.

As you catch your breath, you take a look around at the scene. You are in a billiard room. There is a pool table, but it is not being used for a game.

Around the table are hundreds of roaches, and they are having a feast. They have set up the table as if it were a dinner table. It is covered with plates that look as though they have just been licked clean.

At the head of the table is another traveler, lost in thought. He has not noticed you yet… but the roaches have.

They appear to be waiting for the traveler to do something. One by one, the roaches turn their heads to face you.

Along the walls of the room are a bar and some comfortable-looking chairs.




So sorry ive been a bit off track , Looks like im helping with the roachs after all, Hey dont mean to be lazy, but i am, can anyone tell me who that is in the billiard room, I have no clue who it is...


Quote:
I silently call over what I hope is the lead roach, but then again I cant tell much about them just from looks, I kneel down and secretly whisper to the roach my question,

"Ok , look I really hope you can understand me, and if so, tell me what it is you want, Im trying to help the statue and he nodded to you, so I guess you all must be either working together or something, or maybe he wants you to stop scuttling around him, im not sure, but I really am trying to help, but I cant let other humans or ghosts see me, your ok though cus your the highly devolped insects you are, so Its ok to talk to you I think...
So help me help you, help the statue and then maybe I will get the item he holds , I need taht you see.. So, give me an idea what I can do to help you..""
I feel slowly stupid, but i pray that the roaches understand me, they may be my only hope to help the village now...

 		I win!
I wonder what would have happened to me had I lost? *whimper*

Leaning over to my ghost army I whisper to them, "I think that you're supposed to battle the hamburgers over there. I'm not really sure how to do it exactly. You might be able to put some icing into its ... umm, 'mouth' and stick it shut. That's the best idea that I have, sorry."


TV wrote:
The other traveler whispers his instructions to his meal, and the burgers sit up straight, ready for action. They arm themselves with the sweet potato fries and then hold their ground.

You speak to your creation, as well. The roundest little icing monster lifts its head and then nods very solemnly.

It hops forward and takes what appears to be a deep, sad breath.

Then, all at once, the other icing monsters begin to fling icing from the top of the cake across the kitchen at the burgers.

The burgers react instantly, launching deadly sweet potato fries.

Food is everywhere – the air is filled with fries and white icing.

There are a few instant casualties on each side. The fries hover above the cake and drop beans, splattering two little icing monsters under the weight of the impact. One entire burger is smothered by the heavy cake topping.

Escalating the fight, the little icing monsters charge forward, their heads wiggling as they hop across the counter toward the burgers.

Alone in the middle remains the little monster with the round tummy, its eyes wide with terror.

The burgers take up the remaining fries as spires to prepare for combat.

One by one, burgers are lost and icing monsters perish. It is a massive foodbath the likes of which have never been seen before.

Finally, there is only one burger remaining. It stares down the round and tiny icing monster alone on the counter.

The monster shakes all over, icing dripping from its sides as it attempts to guard the cake behind it.

All the burger needs to do is destroy the monster and eat the cake. It will win the day.

With a fry raised, the burger charges forward, but the icing monster squeezes its sad eyes shut and leaps into the air.

The burger opens its buns, ready to eat the little guy, and succeeds.

With one flap of the bun, the last of the tiny monsters is gone.

Looking as proud as a burger can look, it slides itself over to the cake and attempts to eat – but it can't. The buns are sealed shut with the sticky icing!

In desperation, the burger flings itself around, trying to open its mouth again, but it is impossible. The little, round monster has sacrificed himself to stop the final burger from winning.

At last, the burger thrashes so wildly that it falls from the counter and lands – SPLAT! – on its maker's feet.

The cake is safe.

After a moment's silence, Mr. Unsound and Miss Marcia begin to clap.

"I say," Mr. Unsound remarks, "that was some very good cooking."

"Yes, it was," Miss Marcia says, wiping a tear from her eye.

"Because the vampire won," the butler says, "that means he will have his wish to be human again granted. You," he says, turning to face the other traveler, "will have to take him to the graveyard to be restored. As the Governor's assistant, this is your duty."

Miss Marcia hands the traveler a life bead. "For your troubles," she says. "Just let us know when you are ready to go."


I've lost count, but I do believe that we have at least six life beads between us if not a lot more. So the first game we didn't have enough life beads to save two good people and this time we have more than enough but one of the two people isn't all that good? Interesting.

Good job man!

I wasn't sure what to do today so I just took a blind stab at it:
Quote:
Looking around I shrug my shoulders and walk towards the enormous door.

"Why not..." I say aloud as I take the door handle in hand and open it...


I'll be out of town this weekend so I'm not sure if I will have net access. Just wanted to give you all a heads up.

Hmm, I'm not sure what door that is. If you need the soap, I am actually down the stairs from you. I think that you might have just opened the "DO NOT OPEN" door... The room you're in is driving me crazy. There's so much going on it's very very hard to keep things straight. For instance there's some way to get to the billiard room from there, I think, but the two people that have been there there has been something ambiguous about their move so that I'm not sure which doorway/door they walked into. *sigh*

I'm rambling now..

 		Crap!! I've been so frikkin' busy this week. I hope I'm not out of things - I haven't gotten an email all week. I don't know what to say - we freed the dragon. Are we supposed to be doing something else now? Other than the statue?


DOH!!!!! Am I dumb!!!!! I had been wondering why the PMs saw fit to shrink me. I just took another look at my avatar. Embarassed Laughing Rolling Eyes Laughing

 		No need for me to re-post the food fight. That was fun Smile

negativeview: Yes, I purposely set the glass of blood a side for you to drink.
I think I had the better battle plan but I guess we needed you to win. That is ok. Odd that I lose the fight and win a life bead when you get nothing. Laughing

FSURobbie: I personally have 3 life beads now.

I also don't know why you did not just drop your dust ball in to a few drops of "The Fishspear". I left it on the bar with a shot glass already poured.

What are you talking about, I get to not be a vampire anymore! That's something!

I have one. FSU has one as does Lairo. I'm pretty sure (but not positive without looking back through again), that there are even more. That by itself is six. There were only five found in the entire first game.

Not sure I'd have tried that, either. No telling what would have happened. Might have been fun, though.

Awestruck, I take two of the fries and fashion a cross, gluing the fries together with some icing and erect a small memorial to the bravest little icing blob. Unfortunately it's all that I have time to do before I follow the other traveller to the graveyard.

"No hard feelings? My name is Daniel. ... Count Daniel."

Before you leave, you kneel down to fashion a cross out of two sweet potato fries and places the memorial on top of the bravest little icing blob.

You turn to the other traveler. "No hard feelings? My name is Daniel," you say. "Count Daniel."

Apparently still wary of your nature, the traveler nods and says that he is ready to visit the graveyard.

"You will be invisible at first," the Miss Marcia says. "Now go." She snaps her thick, little fingers, and the journey begins. You are spinning around and around in the whirling air, your body being lifted and moved away.

Then you land, invisible as she said, in the graveyard. There are three other travelers (two of them identical) standing just outside of the graveyard, talking to a ghost.

You look for the other traveler, but because he is invisible, you cannot see him. At your feet you find a note.

It reads:

VKKO QWK DSPPO QP QWK DUQ UIO SKQ WRE SPPT QWHPMFW QWK FSUCC.


I solved this one by hand, because I haven't done that in ages.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Feed the blood to the bat and let him look through the glass.

The roaches understand you. Something about the flicking of their antennae tells you that much. But whether they will help you is a whole different story.

Thinking it would be best to wait outside (in case the other traveler wakes up and notices you there), you slip back out into the statue room and climb back up to his hand.

You wait.

Soon, the largest of the roaches scuttles out from under the door. For just a moment, you could swear the statue looks almost disgusted.

"We have discussed your situation," the roach says to you from down below. He has an accent that you can't place, and his voice is very calm.

"For years the statue has hated our presence in the mansion, and thanks to your information, we know that it has stolen our princess to punish us for scuttling across its feet at night."

You look at the statue. Its eyes tell you what the roaches say is true. The princess must be trapped in its hand.

"Because of your care in making sure that no humans have been involved, the roaches will agree to leave this mansion – as long as the statue gives up our princess."

Slowly, very, very slowly, the statue begins to open its hand. You climb over to look inside.

There, in the center of his palm, is a teeny, tiny roach with a jeweled crown the size of your fingernail. She quakes with fear and is hiding behind her antennae.

You reach out your own hand, and the little roach princess inches closer to you, one step at a time, until she is safe in your hand.

Below, you hear an eruption of applause, and you see that all the roaches have come out to welcome their princess back.

You climb down to return her, and she rushes over to the large bug who addressed you first. "Daddy!" she cries.

"Thank you," he says to you. "We will leave the mansion in peace."

And with that, each roach – only ghosts to begin with – disappears.

You are alone in the statue room. Behind you, an enormous door stands wide open. There are three travelers out there (two of them identical), and they are talking to a ghost.

The other traveler suggests that everyone should take one of the three doors, but it seems the enormous door is the only one on your minds.

Not caring how you look now that the dance is over, you walk to the enormous door. "Come on, guys!" you tell your friends.

"Why not…" the King says, and he takes the door's handle.

It turns, and with a loud creak, the door opens, and the three of you walk through.

You are outside. It is a bleak day. Just beyond a fence is the graveyard, and just beyond the graveyard is Transition Village.

"Welcome back," a voice calls.

You whirl around. There floats a white wisp of smoke that slightly resembles a female human shape. She speaks to you in a calming voice.

"Are you ready to enter the graveyard? We have been waiting. There are two bodies beyond this gate. To give graveyard access to the villagers, you will have to succeed at a task. We need you to draw pictures of the tombstones with the names of the people buried here. You must find a creative and public way to display their grave markers to The Governor, who watches from his computing machine. You might ask the other travelers for help in identifying the graves. We await your response."



yeah I just ask you, who was buried? I have a memory like a sieve

 		Damn, Life beads are floating all over this place.

He turns to you. "No hard feelings? My name is Daniel," he says. "Count Daniel."

Still wary of the vampire standing before you, you nod and say that you are ready to visit the graveyard.

You look for the vampire, but because he is invisible, you cannot see him. At your feet you find three items: a stake, a sleeping bat, and a life bead.

You may take one item per turn.


IG: I normally would have no idea about the bat. Count Danial is invisible anyway even though I know he is here. I would assume the Count is the bat.
Logic dictates that I have to add another life bead to my collection.

I leave for the weekend and come back thinking surely Lairo covered this task already and...FAIL!

Ok, I have no idea who's buried there other than Randy but if you guys can help me figure out who else is there I can try and come up with an image pronto.
