Just a huge picture of a bubble.

But actually, let me  withdraw Mr.Bubbles 
 


As the one trusted player, I should stick to tradition and just drop off the planet now.

All I saw was a picture of Bubbles. No vote. But, I'll count it. No prob.

I still think it is Austin, but no one is moving in that direction.

And Scoop, you'll have to check with tru1cy, but it looks like Unagi changed his vote to Bubbles.

OK, let's be clear.

I had a Mr.Bubbles graphic with the 2 Red Lines under it.

That was a vote for Mr.Bubbles. (and a re-used graphic from the previous game)

Since then, I have removed the vote.

I have no vote.

So, you placed this vote just to move in a direction that I moved in ?

Scoop20906 wrote:EDIT: Removed the vote count cause Unagi keeps changing his mind. Just trying to remove confusion.

LIES!!!

Scoop had posted that he was the Sorcerer and was going to destroy the world !!!!

Of course! I you!

I have voted for Austin and Bubbles. No one was going with Austin. Someone voted for Bubbles. I can get behind that. The fact that it was you was completely inconsequential. I hope you can handle the truth.

You may as well take Semaj off that list Scoop. I really don't think he gets credit for being in this game at all, and he also is most certainly not "unknown" - as that would imply we don't know if he was Evil or One of Our Good Specials - and/or like we'll ever find out.

Agree?

In theory, we could find out, couldn't we? His seed is still there. I don't think we will, however. More interesting targets certainly abound.

What I mean is, this game was nearly stalled because he wanted to just bow out.

I thought it was basically common knowledge that he was a "Normal Villager" - and hence we just forced that to be our first night death and started the game in the Morning of Day 1.

If Semaj was actually a player with a status of (unknown), then we should all be very concerned that he was a special.

We aren't.

Semaj made the move to force this game into a Day Start, and forced the starting number of "Normal Marines" to be Five, instead of Six.

Semaj didn't play in this game at all.

Unagi wrote:Also, question regarding Votes and Time Limits:
What happens if a majority isn't reached.
What happens if there is a tie.
Might I suggest: Majority, Plurality, First-to-tie

stessier wrote:Tru1cy - So what happens again if we end the day without a majority vote on someone?

Not sure if I've ever seen the answer to this question, and it looks like it may become relevant.

Tru1cy, what's your plan - or is that for us to find out?

Agree?

Tru1cy never officially named what Semaj was and according to tru1cy Semaj was the Night one kill so I feel better about keeping him in the list. And Stess is right that the doktor could get his geneseed and scan him although I hope he didn't do that.

I also sorta assumed Semaj was a marine.

We will need two things by 5pm.

(1) a Lynch vote, whether it ends up plurality or majority
(2) which of the pair we would prefer to hear the results of

As to (1)... what if we simply don't vote? (everyone at 0)... obviously the EC could fuck this up by casting a single vote, but then we'd have at least one for tomorrow

what is the point of not having a lynch target chaos?


And, just to share how I would deal with a tie vote that was "backed" into (as the removal of votes would be doing to get to zero). I would treat it like a tie, only technically speaking the "first to tie" would actually be the last guy that got there.

Just like: how would you handle a 2-2 tie?
Is the First To Tie. The guy that had 2 votes first, even though the other guy was sitting at 4 votes for longer , and only reached "2" when two people eventually withdrew?

I would say that the player who "dropped" to 2 (or 0, in your case), LAST is the "winner"

That's why we never liked you. You take away all the fun.

I'm traveling all day tomorrow and won't be on until after the deadline unless a rest stop somewhere north of Atlanta has Wi-Fi. So I really hope more people join me on Bubbles. He deserves to die.

I see.

So, basically we can't / shouldn't lynch you then.



You planned this move specifically for this Friday didn't you. Un-fucking beleivable what you will go through dude. Un Fucking Believeable.

and, shouldn't you be in bed?

Unagi wrote:You planned this move specifically for this Friday didn't you.

I am the Master! Y'all can only hope to contain me.

Unagi wrote:and, shouldn't you be in bed?

Yes, yes I should. But I had to decompress first. 12 hours of having your house torn apart is stressful...even when you are paying people to do it. (Okay, I'm not paying them...but you get the idea.)

Good Night! And if I don't see you later, Good Morning and Good Afternoon as well.

Good luck with the move.

 Scoop 
 
works for me then.

You're wrong again...

purge wrote:Remus, half-right also means half-wrong.

I don't know about bubbles.

My suspects are Lassr, Scoop and Remus, but my suspicions have been wrong before.

With Lassr gone and Scoop voting against me, I'll likely TP him tomorrow morning. Voting this late means that if he's a faithful marine he may not get a chance to defend himself, and I'd hate to give the EC's an easy win.

know what, never mind. I typed up a big thing about my Bubbles and Purge interpretations but I will just save it for after the game is over.

anyway, running my first suspect up the flag pole (admittedly a very short flag pole since Unagi came forward before much went on there) worked nicely so I wonder about running the second. I do not think it a good idea right now though as I suspect him because I thought he hinted at being the Librarian and about who he had scanned (no, I do not think he was hinting at scanning me btw) so he either is or is evil setting up a fake and I lean is. Therefore I stick with my thoughts on
 theohall 
 

for now.

I'm also sort of curious if folks think the Apothecary should check Lassr or our lynch.

Oh, and I think he checks the Lynch.

I'm leaning Lassr, depending on how we arrive at a Lynch.

A lynchee with a contested claim should absolutely be the geneseed.
A lynchee with an uncontested claim... probably more important as the game progresses, in that we need to know if we lost a Special or it was a BadGuy.
A lynchee with no claim? Sort of up for grabs.

I lean Lassr cuz he seemed Bad to me.
Now it will depend who's on the Clock for tomorrow, er today.

 Scoop20906 
 


Why? He is now the first to 3. If he is evil, the EC can't pigpile someone at the last minute to send them to 3 and guarantee a death. If he ends up claiming a special, I'm sure Austin or Theohall will be around to withdraw their vote. And if everyone else agrees on a target, they can still get more votes than Scoop.

Really don't have a read on him one way or the other, though.

Have fun!

I think it all depends on if the person claims to be a special and we still lynch him. If not, I think the apothocary should get the geneseed of lassr.

Well, thanks to Stessier I now have 3 votes and there is potential that 2 baddies could pigpile on me and kill me.

So, I will announce this. I am a special. However, I will not announce which special I am. I will say the clues are there if someone reads closely enough.

Please remove your votes from me now. If, however, I die, the next two votes for me should be considered seriously as baddies.

Also, I will invoke triggercut principle and follow Remus West and put my vote on  theohall
