Town Meeting:

[MrsPeacefrog]

Let's discuss who we think is the vampire among us! Suzi the silversmith was murdered last night. :errr:

Does anybody have any idea who is responsible?

[Sandy]

Well, seeing as how Beverly was apparently the only witness, that makes her a suspect, no? Or were their other witnesses I am unaware of? I am off to see if Beverly has opened her shop this morning and see what she says about it all.

[MrsPeacefrog]

I am a little suspect of Mama! the blood bank owner. Her hours of business, her profile line, she even asked me my blood type :errr: Is it tooooo obvious, or is that her point, be so obvious that no one will suspect her.

I am also slightly suspect of Bev not wanting garlic on her Pizza, explain yourself woman! who doesn't like garlic!!??

Okay the death of an OUALvillager has scared the crapper out of me and now I am suspect of everyone! Looks like we have ourselves a good old fashioned witch hunt!... well vampire hunt to be exact :awink:

I am suspicious of these two for the same reasons!

[Cami]

Ana missed her appointment at the beauty shop last night. :scratchch

I have been out of town so I need to catch up on the gossip... I don't want to accuse anyone unfairly! :)

[Sandy]

Yes, good points. Mama also seems to be a night owl, no?

Who were the other patrons at the general store Beverly was taking care of at the time of the attack????

What about Stef the Innkeeper? She certainly seems to have a lot of strange events going on over there.

[AmyP]

I am also suspect of Mama. I will be right back with quotes from her.

[MrsPeacefrog]

Well when I went to warn Stef about a stranger lurking around her Inn she was sleeping, but then again, I didn't actually physically SEE her sleeping....

That is interesting about Ana missing her beauty appointment! WHO DOES THAT!?

[MrsPeacefrog]

Well Nichole saw Ana coming out of a coffin in her funeral home, but she claimed it was because she tripped on her heel of her shoe and she fell in and the lid closed. THEN she misses an appointment at the beauty shop and has no real valid excuse other than "something coming up" I am going to check Kelly's shoe shop to see if Ana went in to buy a new pair of shoes or not.

[Barb]

mama seems suspicious, but she's almost too suspicious. If it's her, she's not doing a very good job of hiding it.

[AmyP]

Some recent posts by her:

at 4:29 AM ET:
Sorry I "dissapeared" for a moment on our way here. Is it everything O.K.?

at 10:21 PM ET:
I have a broken tooth. I may have bit something too hard. Can I come by first thing in the morning?

(Although that post was made before the alleged vampire attack)

at 4:45 PM ET:
Can I get a stake? raw. I mean rare. And some kabobs, no sharp wooden sticks though, I don't like pointy wood thingys

Does this or does this not scream "I'm a vampire!"???

[AmyP]

You have a point there, Barb. :scratchch

[AmyP]

Stef is another one to think of. She asked for her steak rare, almost bloody. Although she did get a side of garlic fries from Barb that she DIDN'T order. She said they were good, but did anyone actually see her eat them???

[MrsPeacefrog]

You see that's what I keep thinking, it's way too obvious, but then that could be a card that is played, "I will be WAY too obvious then everyone will think that and I won't be suspected"

Maybe she's just read too much Ann Rice. :lol:

I'm also suspicious of Ana and Beverly. :secret: Too bad I forgot to bring the torches!

[Bridget]

Mmmmm good points. She also said it was OK for my relatives to bring their ferocious dogs to stay in a cellar room that is often used and very popular with guests. The insurance costs on allowing mean dogs at a hotel must be high. Is business really that good or is it a cover for allowing wolves or other beasts?

[Barb]

You see that's what I keep thinking, it's way too obvious, but then that could be a card that is played, "I will be WAY too obvious then everyone will think that and I won't be suspected"

That's why it's driving me crazy. :errr:

[MrsPeacefrog]

This was posted by Ana only MINUTES ago!!!

Kelly, my heel broke on my favorite shoes. Can you repair them? Also, I'd love to get something with no heel and comfortable that I can work in all day. Something in black?

If her shoe heel really broke yesterday which caused her to fall into the coffin, then why not go and get it replaced straight away? it seems like she is just trying to cover her story. Well it's a day too late for me! I am having my suspisions on Ana now!

[gulp!]

Hey now, wait just a second! :complain: Are you accusing me of being a vampire?! I've been the proprietor of this Inn for ages! I may have some strange goings on around here (why won't those darn windows stay shut??), but a vampire I am not.

[Jessica]

I figured Ana missed her appointment at my shop because, due to Suzi's death, she was needed at her funeral parlor, BUT, Suzi was attacked after my shop was closed!!

[gulp!]

Ana rented a room from me last night, but since I've known her for a while, we have an open door policy and she comes and goes as she pleases. I'm not sure what time she arrived, nor what time she left. I'll have to see how much money she left me in the till. (I'm pretty sure she just rented it for a couple of hours- didn't she have a hot date coming up?)

[MrsPeacefrog]

hmmmmmm, doesn't seem to be any solid Alibi so far

[Julie]

I am thinking that Ana is doing alot of sneaking/hiding around. Hmmmm...

I need to go check out the rest of the town well.

[Ana975]

Like Stef said, I rented a room from her last night. Yes, indeed, I had a date. Pretty hot one too!

[Bridget]

Like Stef said, I rented a room from her last night. Yes, indeed, I had a date. Pretty hot one too!

We need evidence. Got any hickeys?

[Lynn]

Who was your date? Was he dark and mysterious? :scratchch:

[MrsPeacefrog]

:lol: Yes, any tapes a la Paris Hilton or Tommy/Pamela style? I promise only to skim through to prove your innocence and not watch the whole thing!

[sheila]

:lol2:

Just in case people didn't see the paper, I thought I'd add this here:

FLIGHT RISK
4 October, 2006

OUALville, 10:24am. Another reminder. As this game is participatory in nature, a new rule is being added. Players who do not post in OUALville for a period of 72 hours or more will be assumed to have fled the town, and their status will be changed to dead.

Exceptions to this rule include those people who announce in their shop or in the Vampire Chronicles thread that they will be away for a specific period of time. In addition, if I don't notice that you have been away for 72 hours, you can consider yourself lucky.

At present, the people in danger of fleeing the town include: Martian Lullaby, Jenn, Kasie, Eva and ~LORI~.

[Ana975]

I can't say who my date is was without causing trouble for him (and his family). But he's very well known in this town. :lol:

[sheila]

:popcorn:

[Cami]

I can't say who my date is was without causing trouble for him (and his family). But he's very well known in this town. :lol:

Hmm, I haven't noticed a lot of men in this town... shouldn't be too hard to take a stab at that! :lol:

[Sandy]

Another I consider suspicious - Brandi Jo. Who has dogs that live hundreds of years other than vampires? See her comments in the Rats n' Bats thread.....

[mama]

You have been unfair to me. I am a good girl. I have strange hours because I cater to strange customers.

At the time of the attack I was taking a walk around the woods looking for muffin PER SUGGESTION OF DEB, maybe she wanted to be alone in town!

[mama]

Honestly, I am a sweety. Beverly, Deb and Ann are suspicious. Plus I haven't been too much around Silke and Bridget beacuse they scare me, with those shops of theirs

[Bridget]

You have been unfair to me. I am a good girl. I have strange hours because I cater to strange customers.



I dunno. You're still new in these parts, and that makes you mighty suspicious. You say you're from "Eastern" Europe?

[Ana975]

If people are going to start pointing fingers, why not Deb? She's the one who only comes out at night and goes to sleep every morning? I find that strange.....

[mama]

Southern Europe. And what about those familiars you were bringing to live in the catacombs

[mama]

I told you, Deb sent me on my way to the woods before the attack. Interesting

[Bridget]

Honestly, I am a sweety. Beverly, Deb and Ann are suspicious. Plus I haven't been too much around Silke and Bridget beacuse they scare me, with those shops of theirs

I'm here to serve the people. If there was no interest in my wares, I wouldn't have been able to already save up enough money to send both kids to Harvard.

Plus, I stopped selling henbane AND hemlock years ago. Up until last week my biggest item was ingredients for love charms. Ana bought one of those (heard it's working for her! stop by if I can do the same for you!!).

[Girlo]

Oh no!!! :bawl: I can't believe Suzi is gone. :mope: What a way to wake up.....

I was thinking all night about what to buy from her silver shop....maybe a nice pair of earrings. :) Oh well......

[Eva]

Poor Suzi. :(

Not sure if Ana's alibi is aolid enough as well. one needs to find this person she was with. :) Plus there is motive, it brings in business to her funeral parlour. :lol:

[mama]

I thought I knew you all and now someone sucks!

[sheila]

:giggle:

[Ana975]

I would never hurt Suzi. She means the world to me. She was there for me when I was going through a really trying time. Eva, I thought you knew me better than that.

[Silke]

OMG. Just got out of the lab...must have fallen asleep last night there. Poor Suzi.
Well....I don't know about Mama. She is almost too perfect...maybe a wannabe vampire?

[Eva]

Nothing personal, Ana but under these circumstances you can't trust anyone. :eek: It is always the most unlikely suspect.

[Bev]

Poor Suzi. :(

Not sure if Ana's alibi is aolid enough as well. one needs to find this person she was with. :) Plus there is motive, it brings in business to her funeral parlour. :lol:
I agree completely Eva! Just as I was telling you last night, before you left the store. :nod: That was shortly before poor Suzi was attacked! Did you see anything? I can't say I'm surprised though, she just was too cavalier about the reported sightings. :blue:

I didn't order garlic on my pizza because my youngest was going to have some and he's not so crazy about the extra garlic yet. All in good time, people, he's only 15 months old! :tapfoot:

[Mandi]

I'm a bit suspicious of Mama too.. but like someone else said, she's almost too vampire. :dunno: Maybe she's trying to throw us off?

[Lyoshka]

I mourn for Suzi.... I swear, I will find out who did this to her! Her little Julia will not be an orphan in vain!

[Darcy]

I'm so clueless. Everyone here seems so nice! Why would anyone want to hurt Suzi? :(

[Sandy]

What about some of the more quiet residents of this quaint town? How much does anyone know of Lynn???? Why are some people reluctant to open a store or get involved in the community? My suspicion grows.

[Bridget]

:secret: I heard a rumor that her silver wasn't pure.

[Lyoshka]

How ghastly! I was considering doing some business transactions with her!

[Lyoshka]

Hey, how about Michal? She said to Darcy she needs a babysitter today from 6-9 pm! Sounds suspicious to me! I'm staying inside The Mansion at those hours, that's for sure!

[Bridget]

How ghastly! I was considering doing some business transactions with her!

Yah and we've had a lot of brides here recently. Who needs vampires when you've got Bridezillas pissed about their forks and knives!

[Hilary]

I'm so clueless. Everyone here seems so nice! Why would anyone want to hurt Suzi? :(
:nod: Me too! :lol:

[Lyoshka]

Here is another bit on mama....she said in late Suzi's thread that silver bullets won't kill a vamp even if blessed, "so i've been told". See, that's just simply not true. A silver bullet (not blessed even) will greatly harm, or even kill a vampire.......it will drain him/her of the undead energy, and can very realistically kill him/her.

Why would she be putting those kinds of feelers out there? To get ppl to not buy silver bullets? hmmmm......

[Jessica]

She also wanted a rather, well, interesting hairdo at my shop yesterday (Beverly wanted a similar one, hmm).

[Lyoshka]

what kind, Jessica?
btw, I'm so sorry i missed my appt last night! I've just been so swamped! But I'll be out of the woods soon enough!

[Jessica]

Take a look at her post...

[Lyoshka]

Bloody mama! oops! I mean, wow!

[Ana975]

Lena, you are scaring me a bit with your posts. You seem to know an awful lot about silver bullets. You missed your appointment with Jessica last night AND you'll be "out of the woods soon enough". Makes me wonder about you....

[Lynn]

What about some of the more quiet residents of this quaint town? How much does anyone know of Lynn???? Why are some people reluctant to open a store or get involved in the community? My suspicion grows.

Ah, not so quiet my friend! I have been waiting by the phone in order to get hired at the OUALville hospital. I signed my contract today and am hired. :)

[Jessica]

Lena, you are scaring me a bit with your posts. You seem to know an awful lot about silver bullets. You missed your appointment with Jessica last night AND you'll be "out of the woods soon enough". Makes me wonder about you....

And how about that mansion she "acquired"...whose previous owner mysteriously died?

[Kelly]

I have my suspects. Still scoping everything out before I make a final decision.

[Silke]

Brandi Jo obviously can't sleep with too many religious artifacts in her room at the inn. Very suspicious.

[Lyoshka]

Lena, you are scaring me a bit with your posts. You seem to know an awful lot about silver bullets. You missed your appointment with Jessica last night AND you'll be "out of the woods soon enough". Makes me wonder about you....
Ana, no need to be alarmed, really! I know a lot about the silver bullets because I have a minor in Supernatural Sciences from college. Naturally, lots of reading and research...(too much, if you ask me!)

I missed my appt with Jessica because I just got too busy with the StarDust Coffee Shop and the Home Spendings Store. You know how retail is! I have some great stuff coming in (I even have something for you, since you have been wanting some stuff for your guest bedroom!), and got so busy taking deliveries last night. Seriously, i need to hire some help!

out of the woods.....well....hehe.....that's almost literal, you know how the mansion backs up to the woods, right? and plus, I'm doing mama a favor and looking for her Muffin (hideous thing, if you ask me, and his breath stinks!, but don't tell her i said that, she's already sad about his disappearance).......

I'm perfectly normal...non-threatening OUAL citizen. I love our community and want to serve you for many years to come!

[Lyoshka]

And how about that mansion she "acquired"...whose previous owner mysteriously died?
Hey, a good deal comes along, you gotta grab it! So i did.... I do feel bad for Frank, but somebody was going to get that gorgeous estate, and I just had some money come in, so I made good use of it :)

[Sandy]

Hummmm, I don't know Lena. Sure seems like you have a lot of good excuses. Too good, perhaps.

What about Silke? She conveniently "fell asleep" at the lab last night??? Who does that when they know the town is already jumpy over the vampires???

[Lyoshka]

Sandy, i think maybe you are just a bit overreacting? I really am nice. Have you had your espresso yet? it's been waiting in the StarDust Coffee shop for you for a while. COme on over, I'll make you another one.

[Sandy]

Well, I'll be the first to admit I am a bit more jumpy these days. :blush:

On my way for that coffee, but I must take it to go. I am getting ready for the PAWS event tomorrow, as well as getting ready for our special guest.

[mama]

o.k. I am not a vampire. And you are all batty. I told ya, I need to appeal to my customer, plus I'm just a little out there. But you can feel safe with me

[mama]

I did order garlic ith my pizza. I bougth two silver bullets (though just because slayer scares me)

[Lyoshka]

mama.....what kind of a gun you got for them bullets?

[mama]

It is a bavarian podewils. antique

[Lyoshka]

hmmm...ok

[Lyoshka]

you are trusting an ANTIQUE gun to save your life from vamps? I'd be going with a brand new, modern design and reliability one...but that's just me.

[mama]

well, I have the one in picture on order

[Lyoshka]

i seeee........

[stass]

I just got back from work to find that Suzi was killed!:errr:

I am suspicious of those you mentioned (except Lynn because I feel sorry for her living in Lansing) :lol:

I need to do some more investigating before I say more. I also have some other business to take care of....

[Silke]

What about Silke? She conveniently "fell asleep" at the lab last night??? Who does that when they know the town is already jumpy over the vampires???
I am working to safe citizens of this town and then this :snob:......I can understand everybody is jumpy, but that's no evidence.

[MrsPeacefrog]

I need to defend the accusations made against me! I have an extremely important job! I need to keep my bar running during the night, it is a shift I have major trouble hiring staff for, for some reason they are too scared to work. So go ahead, point your fingers at me, when all I am doing is serving my community by making sure they are drunk around the clock :snob:
