Mafianic 815 Epilogue: Live together, die alone

[Dylflon]

The most important thing to do in terms of preparation was of course to rally my crash-mates to pick up their weapons; umbrellas, bamboo poles, whatever we could find. Without Sawyer around to save us, it was up to me to instill hope into the hearts of my friends.

I formulated a plan. A plan so genius that nobody saw it coming; not even me! The plan was to stage a daring island infiltration of the Others' camp.

Unfortunately for me, we had no leads as to where their camp was. So I went with my back-up plan: hide in the caves and beg for mercy.

But Michael didn't seem to agree with my backup plan. Nooo, he had to go with plan A and storm off into the jungle for revenge. Well guess who'll be waiting for him when he gets himself killed. Not Neil, that's for sure.

-----

Everyone is on edge. We know they'll be back...we just don't know when. The only people we have capable of fighting are me (since I have a gun), and Mr. Eko since that guy is built like a brick wall that has jesus-loving fists of righteous justice.

It occured to me for the first time since Kate went missing that we have no idea who these Others are. As far as we know they haven't killed any of us...we've only killed them...and eachother. Who are they? What do they want from us? Why do they kidnap us? How did they get here? But since I'm in charge of a large group of people who want to go home to their families, I will put my duties as their leader before my ponderings. It's time for vengeance. Vengeance for Kate, and for Shannon, vengeance for Libby, and for Ethan! Well...not as much for Ethan.

I will save us all if it's the last thing I do.

-----

Today was the day. The bearded man came back through the jungle, but he came alone. Says he came to talk. He came without weapons. He promised me that if I put my gun down too, we could all talk, pleasant-like. So I did.

He barely got two words out of his mouth when Hurley pipes up.

"Who are you, dude!? Why are you taking our people? What's wrong with you!?"

The bearded man was stunned and told him to relax. Hurley starts yelling.

"No, man. I'm not relaxing. I'm just not sitting here, taking everything in stride. Good ol' fun-time Hurley. Not anymore, man. I want some answers and I want them now!"

The bearded man tells him to calm down but Hurley picks up my gun and shoots him in the chest.

"That was for Walt!", he yelled.

The bearded man falls over dead. The rest of the survivors crowd around him...cheering. He took it all away from me.

He took my moment of heroism away from me. The rest all think I was a sympathizer who was going to give in to the bearded man's demands...and now Hurley is the hero.

I HATE HIM SO FUCKING MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!

GOD! I will hate Hurley until the day that I die.

-----

It's been a week since the last incident. Not a single Other has come back for us. Maybe they don't think it's worth the trouble. Maybe they'd just rather leave us all here to die on our own. Meanwhile Kate, Jack, Sawyer, Charlie, Jin, Sayid, and heck probably even Michael are all together. Probably still alive. Here I am. Alone, friendless. Why wouldn't they take me? What's wrong with me? Ethan said I was a good person. Why couldn't he take me back with them...

I'm so alone here.

-----

Looks like a little luck is with us after all! One of my island roommates spotted something off the coast of the island.

He says it's a freighter!!!

I thought the Others had it. They played very, very well. But the survivor team's ability to network prevailed and saved the day.

Good game to everyone!!


We may now discuss anything about the game in this thread.

[Aladuf]

FUCK YEAH! AFTER ALL THAT SHIT LAST NIGHT I'M GLAD TO SEE THAT I WENT WITH THE RIGHT PERSON!! It was like, 2 fucking hours of PM's with these guys just trying to decide who was the other.

*cracks open a cold beer*

[flunkie44]

What did I ever do to them.

[Combine 017]

I told you I was the real Michael! But I didnt expect to be the one to get captured.

You said nothing to Aladuf. That's what you did.

Yep, you seemed legit from the start. When I went back and looked at the PM's Teuthida's seemed like he was really reaching with the first PM I got from him last night. But that's not to say that Teuth didn't play a good game last night with the messages, he had me swayed a couple times.

[Dylflon]

Oh, and congrats to surviving players Aladuf and Professor S. Or should I say Mr. Eko and Hurley!

:O

[Professor S]

*BANG!!*

Sorry Mr. Eko... but those last Dharma candy bars are MINE!

[jeepnut]

If anybody wants to see how we planned your doom, here is our private message board where we discussed all things Othery.

So what was TML's special action? Was that a ruse?

I knew there was an enemy in the ranks. It seemed too perfect that I got killed right after I protected Bond, like they knew somehow. And Teuth did, because he was in our circle of trust. Well, at least Bond's PMs were going out to him along with me, Aladuf, and Prof S. We trusted you Teuthida!!

[jeepnut]

Yeah, if it weren't for the Teuth, we wouldn't have been nearly as effective.

Pretty sure always informed Bond to never PM in groups.
Danny was all my fault though it seems.

The only person outside of Squrel (for different reasons) I wouldn't expect to lie to me so never really gave it a second-thought.

It was a fun game though. My guesses on Others was a bit off though was telling folks to vote off Jeepnut for ages, but I was lucky enough to find out who Bond and Manasecret were in the first two rounds so had the Guardian, Seer and Vigilante working together.

And as long as our little alliance had the voting majority, we had a good chance of winning. Oddly, it only came down to two of us in the Alliance being in the final round.

The game just kind of took a nose dive for me on the 3rd day since forgot I work and was leaving town for the majority of the game.

[manasecret]

Oooh I like the extra forum idea for the Others. Smart.

And Round 3?

Pivotal

After talking with BAB yesterday these are the folks he knows for sure are survivors: Bond, Manasecret, GameMaster, and me. He's almost dead sure Fox 6 (who looks like will be a goner) and Prof S are Others.

I'm thinking manasecret right now. Figure we go after the least suspicious folks. If not him I suggest we go after anyone who votes for Prof S instead of Fox 6.

Oh, if they had just voted for me to begin with, would all have been lost?

[jeepnut]

Possibly yes. Then we could have eliminated Bond a lot earlier.
