So the forums work again, and time to continue...
While Tyrannis and sophos weren't sure about the intentions of anyone and decided to not cast their votes, the decision was made - Eagle_Eye, with the most votes casted on him, was deemed to be behind the attempted murder of SourCherry. With guns pointed at his person, he was forced out of the group and into the wastes, with only his personal items on him. Though a few were left behind.

A saddlebag, filled with scrap - and some NCR insignias and ranks of a trooper.

They had just casted out one of their own.
TL:DR; Eagle_Eye was innocent - NCR loyal.

Night Phase begins - ends on 3rd of August 19:00 GMT (if forums permit)

Prompting not to waste time, the team decides to explore the Stable - and make a more comfortable camp at the atrium of the complex.

The Stable proves to be a winding set of hallways and rooms, as if it was scribbled together on short notice. Silverlight, in his little exploring trip, stumbles upon the medical ward. Some of the old residents of this establishment have left behind their skeletal forms in said room - the signs what caused their demise long gone. Silverlight opts to check the supplies of the room just in case if those renegades in the group stumble upon him.

Unfortunately, Silverlight won't make it to the medical cabin before getting a bolt of magic-filled laser against his nogging, taking him down. As the assailant walks away and hides the murder weapon once more, what is left of Silverlight is just a pile of smooth, orange glowing ash amidst a few skeletons.

Said scene is found out by the others later, the disappearance of Silverlight raising alarms once more. With a bit of digging through the ash, scorched page of a contract to NCR is found, barely readable - but the most important is there.

Where the murderer failed last night, he delivered this time by taking out one of the NCR loyal mercs.
So, Silverlightpony was innocent - NCR loyal with no extra abilities.

### Day Phase begins! Ends on 5th of August, 19:00 GMT #### if forums permit

Someone reads the contract once before sighing. "Shame.." He looks up at the rest of the group, curious to see if any of them can bring insight into this mystery.

How's this for responding quickly to the scene? Apparently the longer you wait to speak your mind, the more likely you are to be a suspect. Once again, it may be best to listen to everyone before making a decision.

It isn't that inactivity means you're guilty, but rather that instead of eliminating people who do write here, we should eliminate those who are less active first, before we have enough leads. Also, the scum should speak as well, if only to divert attention away from themselves. We have 48 hours to post and make a decision, that should be enough for everyone to write their opinions. It isn't very smart to change the rules in the middle of the play.

Well, apparently we're now two NCR loyalists short. And not a single lead towards who did it.

"We have that note." sophos scratches hisb head. "But I don't know if that's worth anything. Maybe if we gather up enough of them we can make a set of laser-proof armour. OR...we could stop going anywhere alone!"

"While we could do that, if our assailants are persistant, they'll resort to old fashioned stabbing. And the buddy system, without know which one of us is out to kill the rest, could lead to more bad than good.." He looks around at the others again, "So.. Nopony happened to see anything last night, did they?"

Oh no, this is bad. That's how many of us left now... seven? Who is doing all this?! If its like Silverlight said, and there is more than one of them. That means that there is at most five of us NCR Loyalists left... I'm sorry Silverlight, I was suspecting you, I should have known you were too serious of a pony to be a traitor!
I made some tokens to be used for virtual tabletops such as roll20, might be of interest if you like a playing field for your games.

We definitely need to stay calm and level-headed. While we're in a rough spot, we just need to think it through together.
