What happens if the rabbit attacks the one with the grenade? I think it should go to someone Love is willing to protect, if only until the Rabbit is gone, someone who is clearly NOT the rabbit himself. Unfortunately I don't know for sure if the Witch can block the rabbit. I see no real reason to think he can't, but there is no proof, as the rabbit kill has never been blocked, and only once failed to kill, the night Catharsis and Tasslehoff died (and CCRunner was newted). (And why did that happen? If it was a double attempt on Catharsis or Tasslehoff, it wasn't as obvious as last night; but neither do I see anyone among the living players who could be proven to have missed that night entirely -- if it was a case of missed orders, it appears to have been an oversight and not a situation where the person was not online at all.) Maybe a one-time investigation looking for the hand grenade, and the result prompted the hit on Nictel? But that too is not supported by the write-up.
But then again lots of things aren't supported by the write-up ... no mention of newts thus far, though there's apparently been rather an epidemic of attempts both successful and non.
In any case I think we have to take a serious stab at the Rabbit at this point, by any and all means necessary. Two kills per night will wipe us out too fast to rid ourselves of the rabbit plus multiple Knights.
sprig, I'm really curious why you think the Rabbit and the Knights are in competition with one another. I think you're right, but you state it like you know it for a fact. But that said, I don't find it all that likely that the Rabbit is hiding behind the facade of the Black Knight. My best guess for the Rabbit is Backwards Logic, who already survived one lynching by means unknown. The Rabbit must be hard to kill, else why the presence of the Hand Grenade in the first place?
