I have one. [holds up a black pawn]

[tendofu]

I have the white pawn.

[crisscrossing]

Right! Which means that the clue isn't about you, since there's not a third person with a pawn to make it about three people. Yanno?

[tendofu]

So the pawns are innocent?

[crisscrossing]

Err. No, but the three pawns aren't a clue.

[tendofu]

Well, there are also three wolves.

[crisscrossing]

Okay, yes, but there's not a third person to match up with the last pawn. It's not that simple.

[tendofu]

I mean that the three black pawns might represent the three wolves -- in Alice In Wonderland, white won in the end. Doesn't this game remind you of that?

So if we figure it that white equals sheep and black equal wolves, those three pawns represent the three wolves. Which also means that these pieces we have may be irrelevant.

[crisscrossing]

That's not even a clue. We already know there are three wolves. If the pieces we have are irrelevant, that doesn't narrow anything down.

[tendofu]

It means that we have to focus on our colors, not our pieces, perhaps?

[crisscrossing]

How? Six of us got black and six of us got white. That doesn't really help, either.

[tendofu]

Well it's six and six and two and two -- not three. Either way, we don't have a lead really. Other than to play.

[odiousialist]

Maybe we should try to move the pieces on the board?

[tendofu]

That would mean white and black move together.

[odiousialist]

There are only black pawns, though.

[crisscrossing]

... It's worth a shot!
