Game Post
[The doors along the veranda suddenly snap open, revealing one room for every team. Each team's room is marked with a small banner in their color.]
Instructions: I have heard of the games before, wolves and sheep. They didn't seem much fun. This time, it is just a game and perhaps something much quicker. How does this sound—I've picked four teams to be my special foxes. It is their job to work together and stay hidden. The rest of you against them (do I have to call you anything, since you're just normal?) will try to find them within the next three hours.
But to make things more fair, there will be a clue. You see all the teams arranged just so? In each row and each column, there will be only one fox team. That helps, doesn't it? I think it should.
When your team thinks it knows who's a fox, place a vote on them. You have one vote per team, per row. If you have not voted when time runs out, then I won't be able to score you for whether you were right or not...
Foxes will receive points for every team who doesn't vote for them and a large bonus if no fox teams are considered the most suspicious, so it's to their benefit to work together.
The rest of you will get points for guessing right and a large bonus if you get all four teams right.
On the other hand...
There might be some bonuses for other things as well—but it's more fun if you don't know everything, right?
It is a game, so it should be fun.

... I'm really not used to being called nice.

[Shrugs.] You've been helpful to me. And you and Ed were...some sort of comrades, if not friends.
no subject
But he'll be the first to tell you I'm a jerk.
no subject
But good to know.
[Even if I know you traumatized my teammate, probably.]

Really though, it would have been easier if he'd been the one playing for Heliodor.

Why's that?

But you seem an honest enough guy.

I try. [No, I'm full of avoidance and omissions. Though I'm obvious, so...]

So, are you a fox? Never did directly ask.

I'm not.

You're sharper than I thought.
