Who replaced Tufnel, by the way? Mex?

 

[Sand]

ok, one update...

sand moved to gg side

What changed?

He realized that I am a multiple Olympic Gold medal winner Fulbright scholar Adonis that is fully pro village.

i just can't wrap my head around hags claim. wouldn't other's be also searching for the grail. or is it possible that only one guy is doing it?

just seems odd

The movie, as well as the legend, is about all of the Knights of the Roundtable questing for the Grail.

Having found it, Galahad the Chaste desires to ascend to Heaven.

Not sure how that relates to "joining" Arthur on a mason board.

Seems a bit of a stretch, imo

Dennis was just a peasant, he could never have gained executive power "in the movie"

My role fits the theme well enough. Galahad was the most fervent about searching for the Grail.

Sure he was. However, his quest was for the Grail and to ascend to Heaven.

Not to partner up with Arthur.

So Hags, you are essentially a searching mason

fwiw: I'm not likely to get the first post updated anytime soon. You can find any of the game events, etc by just looking through my posts, though. I'm always relatively inactive in other threads when modding, so there shouldn't be much nonsense.

IMO, 2 or 3 of the remaining BGs are in that group of 4.

They never built a wooden badger.

But it was alluded to and it happened in this very game.

Dennis never got to vote for his ruler, but "executive power" is alluded to in this game.

 

[Merlin]

@ Hags

Not even close but a valiant effort none the less

Look well, Arthur ... for it is your sacred task to seek
this Grail.

It begins to fade. Music crescendo as both lights fade.

That is your purpose Arthur ... the Quest for the Holy Grail ...

It is gone. All the KNIGHTS are left gasping in awe and wonderment. They
all turn and look at ARTHUR.

LAUNCELOT
A Blessing. A blessing from the lord.

BEDEVERE
Praise be to God!

An awed pause, then ARTHUR rallies them.

ARTHUR
We have a task, we must waste no time! To Camelot!

GALAHAD
God be praised!

Stirring music crescendo. They ride off.

CUT TO TITLES SEQUENCE Animation: "The Quest For The Holy Grail" After
titles CUT TO:


9 EXTERIOR - CASTLE - DAY

MIX THROUGH one or two shots of them on their way again, until they approach
a terrific castle (a little one would do too). They advance quite close to
the castle and draw themselves into a line. At a signal from ARTHUR the two
PAGES step forward and give a brief fanfare.

A MAN appears on the battlements. ARTHUR addresses him.

ARTHUR
Hello.

MAN
'Allo. Whoo is eet?

ARTHUR
I am King Arthur and these are the Knights of the Round
Table. Whose castle is this?

MAN
This is the castle of of my master, Guy de Loimbard.

ARTHUR
Please go and tell your master that we have been charged by God
with a sacred quest, and if he will give us food and shelter for
this night he can join us in our quest for the Holy Grail.

MAN
Well, I'll ask him, but I don't think he'll be very keen.
He's already got one, you see?

ARTHUR
What?

GALAHAD
He says they've already got one!

They are stunned.

ARTHUR
Are you sure he's got one?

MAN
Oh yes. It's very nice

CUT TO BATTLEMENTS. THE TAUNTER (MAN) turns to some others.

MAN
I told him we already got one.

They all giggle.


ARTHUR
Well ... can we come up and have a look?

MAN
Of course not! You are English pigs.

ARTHUR
Well, what are you then?

MAN
I'm French. Why do think I have this outrageous accent, you
silly king.

GALAHAD
What are you doing in England?

MAN
Mind your own business.

ARTHUR
If you will not show us the Grail we shall storm your castle.

Murmurs of assent.

MAN
You don't frighten us, English pig-dog! Go and boil your
bottoms, son of a silly person. I blow my nose on you, so-called
Arthur-king, you and your silly English K...kaniggets.

He puts hands to his ears and blows a raspberry.

GALAHAD
What a strange person.

ARTHUR
Now look here, my good man!

MAN
I don't want to talk to you, no more, you empty-headed animal,
food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. You mother
was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

GALAHAD
Is there someone else up there we could talk to?

MAN
No. Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time.

ARTHUR
Now this is your last chance. I've been more than reasonab...

MAN
Fetchez la vache!

GUARD
Quoi?

MAN
Fetchez la vache!

CUT BACK TO battlements. A cow is led out of a stall.

CUT BACK TO ARTHUR.

ARTHUR
Now that is my final offer. If you are not prepared to agree to my
demands I shall be forced to take ... Oh Christ!

A cow comes flying over the battlements, lowing aggressively. The cow
lands on GALAHAD'S PAGE, squashing him completely.

ROBIN
What a cruel thing to do.

BEDEVERE
(Choking back tears)
It hadn't even been milked.

ARTHUR
Right! Knights! Forward!

ARTHUR leads a charge toward the castle. Various shots of them battling on,
despite being hit by a variety of farm animals.

ARTHUR
(as the MAN next to him is squashed by a sheep)
Knights! Run away!

Midst echoing shouts of "run away" the KNIGHTS retreat to cover with the odd
cow or goose hitting them still. The KNIGHTS crouch down under cover.

LAUNCELOT
The sods! I'll tear them apart.

ARTHUR
(restraining LAUNCELOT from going out and having a go)
No!

BEDEVERE
I have a plan sir.

CUT BACK TO battlements of castle. FRENCH SENTRIES suspiciously peering
towards the English lines. Wind whistles.

Shot of the empty scrubland or undergrowth or woodland around the castle.
Emptiness. Wind. More shots of the FRENCH SENTRIES peering into the dusk.
As night falls. MIX THROUGH TO night On the battlements a brazier burns or
torches on the wall as the SENTRIES peer into the dark. Shots of the
woodland with fires burning where the English lines are.

During all this the sounds of extensive carpentry have possibly been herd,
followed by silence, followed by renewed outbursts or activity.

CLOSE-UP FRENCH looking very nervous. Dawn breaking. Shot of woodland.
Nothing. Wind. Dawn still breaking. Shots of the FRENCH. They suddenly
hear something. A faintly detectable squeaking which is getting louder.

CUT TO WIDE SHOT of castle and woodland. Squeaking getting louder. Shot of
the FRENCH TAUNTER pointing. WIDE SHOT again. The squeaking gets louder
an enormous twenty-foot-high wooden rabbit is wheeled out of the
undergrowth into the open space in front of the castle. The ENGLISH scuttle
back into the undergrowth. The rabbit has a large red bow tied round it
and a rather crudely written label, which reads "Pour votres amis
Francais". The CHIEF TAUNTER looks at it, narrowing his eyes. Then he
turns and leaves battlements.

CUT TO ARTHUR and COMPANY watching from the bushes. The main gate of the
castle opens a little and the CHIEF TAUNTER's head sticks out, then another
Froggie head, then another. They mutter to each other in French, look
rather pleased, then rush out and start to pull the giant rabbit in.

CUT BACK TO ARTHUR and COMPANY behind some bushes watching.

ARTHUR
Now what happens?

BEDEVERE
Well now, Launcelot, Galahad, and I wait until nightfall
and then leap out of the rabbit and take the French by surprise,
not only by surprise but totally unarmed!

ARTHUR
Who ... Who breaks out?

BEDEVERE
Er ... We ... Launcelot, Galahad, and I ... Er ... leap out of the
rabbit and ...

LAUNCELOT covers his eyes.

BEDEVERE
Look, if we were to build a large wooden badger...

ARTHUR cuffs him. ARTHUR looks at the battlements. There is a loud twang.
Look of horror. The rabbit comes sailing over the battlements.


ARTHUR
Run away!

More shouts.

Run away!

SIR GAWAIN
(to his PAGE as they run away)
It's only a model.

ARTHUR
Sh!

They continue to retreat. The rabbit lands on GAWAIN'S PAGE
(who is already weighed down by enormous quantity of luggage).

ARTHUR: You silly sod! You got us all worked up!

ROBIN: You ###! I soiled my armor I was so scared!
TIM: Look, that rabbit's got a vicious streak a mile wide, it's a killer!
KNIGHT: Get stuffed!

GALAHAD: What language is that?
ARTHUR: Brother Maynard?

MAYNARD: It's Aramaic!
GALAHAD: Of course! Joseph of Aramathea!
LAUNCELOT: Course!
KNIGHT: What does it say?
MAYNARD: It reads, 'Here may be found the last words of Joseph of Aramathea. He who is valiant and pure of spirit may find the Holy Grail in the Castle of uuggggggh'.
ARTHUR: What?
MAYNARD: '... the Castle of uuggggggh'.
BEDEMIR: What is that?
MAYNARD: He must have died while carving it.
LAUNCELOT: Oh, come on!
MAYNARD: Well, that's what it says.
ARTHUR: Look, if he was dying, he wouldn't bother to carve 'aaggggh'. He'd just say it!
MAYNARD: Well, that's what's carved in the rock!
GALAHAD: Perhaps he was dictating.
ARTHUR: Oh, shut up. Well, does it say anything else?
MAYNARD: No. Just, 'uuggggggh'.

Uugggggggh goes sand, as the Black Knight comes along and takes his head for a prize. Dead is sand - Brother Maynard, GGRP

Business seems to have slowed a bit. But there are some lovely holy specimens among today's dead. We've got a sacred guy who hands out holy death on a daily basis and a foul temptress who uses her hole to exhaust villagers and keep them from fully enduring the wrath of the mob. Good day!Day 7 begins. 11 live. 6 kill.

Norm announces Sand is actually good, no explanation but "trust me" and then they both die.

Knowing that sand was passing out the grenades makes me want to read back a ways, but its so much work

Game Event

The heavens open up, and the Grail ascends to the right hand of Foos. Somehow ( ), the quest would continue.

 

[McGarnicle]

vote Zed

It's time IMO

 

[Merlin]

Bump up the charts

Golly, no one could've guessed we were gunning for Foos and protected him, right? :facepalm:vote sand

Protection is normally a gg power, not saying that it couldn't be a bg power this game but in my experience it is not.
More than likely it has to do with his role as a bg

Has anyone ever blocked a daytime vote lynching? I'm concerned Foos has some protection for this entire day. Sand looked like the next one up as a suspect, let's flush him out and get Foos tomorrow.

Due to his antics with the grenade Zed should be the next runup. I don't believe that it was stolen from him. That's a singular event and should be explored very closely.

We had a GGRP (Sand) and a PJB (Norm) die in the night, but the above implies both had RP powers... or am I missing something? The temptress sounds like the role that was handing out the Grail to protect against the grenade, although BF and IB said they were passing it among themselves earlier.

@ Hags

So, about your power(s) ?

You've been neutered ?

 

[bostonfred]

Hags can't search for the grail anymore? Bummer.
