Calculation
The second full day in Llamaville seems to go a bit more slowly than the first. Perhaps the excitement is wearing off for the new residents, or perhaps they have just decided to take a little more time in deciding on someone to kill. Whatever the reason, it is well in the afternoon before the discussions die down and sides are chosen.
Eventually, a majority settles on one Mr. Xylthixlm. One resident suggests that rather than killing him, they should just force him to say his name backwards and see what happens, but this suggestion is ignored. Before the group can lynch him, however, he utters one last plea:
"Wait! You can't kill me!"
"Why not?"
"I'm the programmer responsible for bringing you all here."
"What?"
"Maybe I could hack the InVy Inc. system and learn who the bad guys are!"
"Maybe you're scum trying to get us to help you hack into the system."
"But I'm not!"
"That's what scum would say."
"But I can prove I'm innocent."
"How?"
"Er... oh, right, I guess that would require me to die..."
"Exactly."
After performing the rituals of determining alignment (Llamaville Handbook pg. 56), the residents are convinced that the recently deceased was, in fact, innocent.
"Now what?"
"Cocktails?"
"Sounds good."
Xylthixlm (Vanilla Townie) has been lynched. It is Night 2. Deadline is Tuesday, September 8.
