I really would hate to throw out a vote without any real discussion from a number of people. I don't know what to assume about that. I will probably vote tomorrow if the status quo remains unchanged.

I think this game is DOA. We should come to some vote soon and if we're lucky we'll miss and the game will be over. Because it just isn't happening.

I'm not so sure and I'm not so sure we should just cast votes to get the game going.. I like CR's idea of a little dicussion before we kill an innocent again.

Please note that is not just an "again" situation.

8 -1(lynch) -1(kill) = 6. Game Over, or find a Bad Guy,

6 -1(lynch) -1(kill) =4. Game Over, or find a Bad Guy,

4 -1(lynch) -1(kill) =2. Game Over

We MUST go 3 for 3 to win this game.

Well it looks like discussion is not going to be created naturally or even with prompting. I don't know if its a good thing or not that PR_GMR has already voted for Kelric but he is the best candidate I have.

Statistically, all signs point to Kelric. What are the chances that someone who's innocent has participated consistently in all the innocent lynchings which have taken place?

Kelric's just hiding in plain sigh, as he always does. But, no longer!

What's sad is that is exactly what I would do if I was sick of the game and wanted it to be over. It is also exactly what I would do if I was a slayer.

Although frighteningly enough it is a good play.

It makes me second-guess whether I want to vote for him.

I'm going to vote for PR_GMR because:

1. He was the last one to vote for Remus West.

2. I suspect that one, or possibly two of the people who voted for Kelric are slayers (If you have two innocents voting for him at this point, the slayers could just jump aboard right away to finish him off). I'm not sure whether or not Kelric is a slayer - it doesn't make too much sense for him to vote for himself, but it could be a bluff, since the slayers hav e a very good chance of winning at this point anyway.

Unfortunately it does make sense after having received the second vote.

If he sits at 2 votes it begs the question where are the slayers and why don't they finish him off to win the game...

Unless he (a) is a slayer or (b) there are slayers already voting for him

I'm disturbed that PR_GMR, Silky, Kelric, and Nade are willing to vote with minimal discussion.

(Lieutenant Detective PR_GMR shows Nade the evidence against Kelric again:)
Against tru1cy(10): tru1cy, Silky, PR_GMR, st_dysan, Kelric, Mr Bubbles, Kraegor, pr0ner, Remus West, Austin

Against Austin(8): Remus West, Bakhtosh, Mr Bubbles, Newcastle, Chaosraven, Nade, Kelric, pr0ner

Against pr0ner(7): Kelric, Chaosraven, Nade, Mr Bubbles, gbasden, st_dysan, Bakhtosh

Against Remus West(6): gbasden, Mr Bubbles, st_dysan, Silky, Kelric, PR_GMR

Kelric - 4
Mr Bubbles - 4
st_dysan - 3
Chaosraven - 2
gbasden - 2
Nade - 2
PR_GMR - 2
Silky - 2
My vote for Remus West was an inprudent, rash one, I must admit. But take a look at Kelric's (and Mr Bubbles) record for conveniently lynching innnocents.

And here I thought this was discussion.

You know why I keep voting? Because I want the game to be over. Why do I want the game to be over? Because I don't really care about it. Why do I not really care about it? Because I don't want to go back and read 20 pages to see WTF happened and that I managed to vote for pretty much every single dead innocent.

So... I'll throw my vote to every last one of us if it gets us a bandwagon by the slayers to end this friggin' thing.

True enough Kelric. Sooner or later there will be a combo that they slayers can take advantage of. Perhaps it is people that voted already. Perhaps the slayers are AFK.

But like you say. Voting for people looks to be the only way to get discussion going at this point. Not the best of signs to be sure. Also the discussions at this point are pretty much a rehash of what has already been said in one form or another.

Nade is willing to go in another direction because either thats his best hunch or he is a slayer. Only time will tell. This is at least something that has changed the status quo over the past 48 hours.

If you want the game to end vote for me. I am a very very sucky innocent because I haven't been able to keep up as I normally do. So a vote for me is a vote for the end.

Kelric, I have played many a game with you and never seen this tact before, I also don't believe you when you say you want it over. You, as all of us do spend a lot of time here and you saying you want it over doesnt make sense.

I think its the tact of a slayer trying to throw us off.

You may lynch me if you wish. I'm Detective Lieutenant PR_GMR, and I'm certainly innocent.

At least my lynching will be final sign of the superiority of the Slayers in this space station.... led by Kelric and Mr. Bubbles.. who will be 5 for 5 in lynching innocents while claiming to be 'innocents' themselves.

It's not too late, fellow good space station/village dwellers. Do the right thing.. Lynch Kelric or Mr. Bubbles.

We haven't had a game stop being played for several weeks in the middle of it before.

Edit - You should also know that I don't remotely like the vote for one's self tactic.

I was on the forums. Do we really want me to bring my vote back to myself? I will. I just want to get this game over with.

Besides, you've seen me vote early to try and get a round to finish as well. I get impatient.

That only happened because various players-- you included-- wouldn't get off the hump and do something. Y'all forced my hand through sluggish gameplay until cryosleep was the only option!

In any event, play the game that's in front of you. One way or another, it'll be over soon. Then I'll turn my attention to updating the wOOki with fresh stats.

Who knows, Kelric. Maybe you're still the winningest player!
