    Shame it's the 19th Century and we sunbathe in a full suit.

    At least we're far away from the ongoing cholera pandemic. These sorts of events will be a thing of the past in centuries to come.

    We can look through the wreckage for alcohol and perhaps build a makeshift bar from drift wood I suppose

    Yeah I'd imagine the same, from what I remember from previous games it takes about 3 days to start noticing any type of pattern or routine with messages.

    Ahoy maties, ye scurvey dog.

    As a loyal me bucko o' th' briny deep, I thought I would start thin's off by usin' me periscope t' view Cthulhu.

    Sadly, like th' departed spirit o' our loyal Cap'n Opti, there be no good news. Shiver me timbers, and a bottle of rum!

    Alas, Cthulhu be Good, and a bucket o' chum. To better luck tomorrow! Gimlets all aroun'!

    With Opti being at work, it's possible the messages are delayed by him being unable to post them (see his message on the voting thread).

    Afternoon all. RIP Opti (nice write up of your death though). Sorry for late arrival to the party - have been searching the island for water/gin (ie. ferrying daughter to and from GCSE exam and walking the dogs). Doesn’t look like I’ve missed anything though - seems like the Seer and Wolf are seeing who’s going to blink first.

    Edit: Message posted as I was writing this..

    Afternoon all.

    Great write up Opti, luckily I brought some factor 30 with me so let me know if anyone has caught the sun. Scottish people get first priority.

    Now Im off to see if Tom Hanks has got a spare ball so we can have kick around.

    Now we wait I guess.

    Opti just out of interest, will you be posting the times the message came in if it differs majorly from the time you post them? Can be useful sometimes.

    Wilson is the ball in Castaway.

    So we have a reference to Sannino and Castaway/Tom Hanks

    Well, if we are to believe the first message is from the seer he is. It does feel like a seer message, trying a distinct style and probably some sort of pattern which will hopefully help to distinguish messages later on.

    Certainly going with a style then! Going to have to assume the Wilson reference is Castaway given the shipwrecked plot line, and the phrase before it the infamous Sannino quote.

    Hopefully the second message follows soon!

    There is also the possibilty that the Sannino face on the pitch quote is a reference to the fact that Tom Hanks drew a face onto Wilson, so perhaps a double pointer towards the Castaway reference, rather than a distinct reference to Sannino.

    "Scurvey" was a alias of an illness that effected sailors. Briny Deep could be a reference to two different things. Darkness and purity. Briny can be stones, gems or any treasure. Be good or bad, for substance or greed.

    There will be no measured vote. I’ll be chaos (unless the second message is the seer and they find a wolf).
