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.

... Other than talking to as many people as I can?

Honestly? I don't know. But Sapphire and Heliodor are both working really hard at this game, so that makes me think they aren't. The foxes already know who's who in their bracket - it's the non-foxes who have to work for their information.
