I can understand thinking kingfc22 was converted... he was even more confused than I was and am, judging by his voting and comment pattern yesterday.

In a nutshell, my father was a separatist. He was an alien supporter and took me to a doctor and my blood was tainted. Now, if I'm targeted and die, I can kill somebody (human or alien) that night due to my tainted blood (sort of an eye for an eye thing). The problem is that whomever I kill, I won't be sure if they're an alien or not. I'm pretty sure Fouts is an alien and may be a double spy. I'm somewhat inclined to believe at least part of his story that he was a slave to the aliens (the part I'm not inclined to believe is that I'm an alien).

Any idea whether this may cause you to show up as ectoplasmic on the sensors. I'm hopeful we might only be dealing with two aliens besides your mixed blood.

I definitely thought kingfc22 had gone bad. And, of course, that's why I viewed him last night. Like Peregrine, though, he was X-Com through and through.

He's telling the truth. He's alien and when he dies, he'll take one of us with him. Some sort of acid blood. I'd rather not be in the room when he goes.

[digamma]

Yeah, I know he's telling the truth. I had the same result in my scan. I just am wondering how he counts in the numbers--because he began his life as a human.

[Vince]

Raiders this (along with posts #517 and 473) are why I have been voting for Neon_Chaos for three days now.

I think that regardless of what we think that CW was, Neon_Chaos is a bad guy. Based upon everything that happened yesterday, we have only three options:

1) If CW was telling the truth about his scan, then Neon_Chaos IS the Chryssalid, there is no arguing that.

If CW was a bad guy, however, and lying to us for his benefit...then we have two MORE options.

2) Neon_Chaos is not a bad guy. If CW's gambit worked, we would have hung him, found out he was a good guy, and then immediately turned upon CW. The Aliens would have gotten a 2-for-1 situation (one good guy, one night kill/conversion, only one Alien dead) -- which doesn't make sense, because before CW opened his mouth, we had practically no idea what we were doing, and the Aliens had at least a good chance of getting a 2-for-0 situation (we vote a good guy, they kill/convert a good guy, don't necessarily lose a bad guy the next day). This strategy seems flawed. The only way this strategy looks good is if CW is a 'brutal wolf' type character who can take someone out as he dies -- then the Aliens get a 3-for-1 swing. Since CW died, and didn't kill anyone in the process (though he tried), that further makes this strategy look bad.

3) Neon_Chaos is a bad guy (anyways), and CW was trying to set it up so he was considered a good guy the rest of the way. I think this is a strong strategy, and until recently had thought it a strong possibility.

In two of these three scenarios, Neon is not a good guy. And in the only scenario in which Neon IS a good guy, CW is a bad guy, and his strategy makes very little sense. Hence my vote for Neon_Chaos.

I think he'll probably count as one of the ectoplasmics. The bigger question, in my opinion -- where do his loyalties lie? What is his victory condition? Can we win with him still alive? I think we have to go Neon today, RA tomorrow. If we can afford to keep him alive, sweet -- but he's prime suspect #2 on my list right now.

I agree. There's something very fishy about RA...

[Fouts]

Here's how I have it right now;

Known bad guys - Neon, RA

Known good guys - Fouts, Swaggs

Suspected bad guys - Qwik

Suspected good guys - Digamma, Vince, Jeeber

I don't know - Mr. Wednesday

[Swaggs]

Fouts, can you confirm or deny that there is a lag period between the conversion and becoming a full fledged ecto? What happened with hoopsguy? Was he immediately converted?

The lag time things worries me badly.

[Vince]

I think he was just acting. I have no knowledge of this, but I've got a pretty strong feeling that's just what he was doing.

It actually makes sense that they would convert you. It would be too risky to leave you with that ability. You could have become the bodyguard, if I read the role correctly.

Why would I become the bodyguard...I can't protect myself...trying to figure out why I'm still alive is like asking why Peregrine and King were whacked...no rhyme or reason.

Yeah they are converted right away, and that was a great show by hoops. He had to keep up the looks of still being all over blade, but once we all got on that bandwagon it was too late for them to save him. Hoops led the charge for blade's death by trying to keep his image up.

I was just saying as the jack of all trades, the aliens couldn't risk that you could become the bodyguard. It is a great move, if that is how it works.

Surely there is a better position to help the troops than guard?

I'm still trying to find something bigger to help in figuring out who's who...I concur that Neon is probably a baddie, but I did that before.

I got Blade, but I was wrong about him being the chrysallid.

Strange how you are making sense now that you are an alien. Back when you were human I couldn't figure out why you made all the wrong moves. Have you joined the hive?

And I would think you would have picked a role by now. This confirms for me that you are the converted.

I can only pick the role of someone dead...and only if the role is useful. As of now, Jack of Trades is still more useful than anything I've come across.

Have I joined the hive? No.

Glad I am making sense now, but I made sense before. I got Blade that was a right move. I mucked up on CW.

But I believe the aliens would not have gone for such a high profile person, they would've gone for someone quieter. Meanwhile, I knew when I came out with my ability (thanks to Sir Fozzie, which was only fair), that I would become a target for death, conversion or discredited because I was still around.

[Qwikshot]

I can only assume a role of a dead person...should I just become a grunt?!?

/That's/ foolish talk.

[Swaggs]

Qwik, you can prove your innocence tomorrow by telling us what kingfc22's role was.

There are multiple people that know what it was.

[Swaggs]

Also, whose room did you check last night and what did you find?

[Fouts]

CW was the bodyguard, that is a guarantee. Why wouldn't you want to be the bodyguard? That is why they converted you.

[Qwikshot]

Because I was looking for a better role.

[Raiders Army]

Screw this, if I'm in the axis of evil, I might as well go:

Unvote Neon_Chaos
Vote Fouts

As per Vince, I'm a goner tomorrow, so I'm voting for Fouts. My vote won't make a difference anyhow.

I see this:

Fouts
digamma
Vince
JeeberD

All against me. So fuck it. What do I have to lose?

[digamma]

For the record, RA, I've never said I'm against you. I've said all along that I believe you want to get back at the ones who made you who you are. If you know something, you should tell us.

[Qwikshot]

Did Michael do anything to you, you should tell...did he moonwalk? Did he have his sequined glove...telling with make you feel better.

I've already told you. I see how this is going to go down, and there's nothing I can do to stop it.

Neon Chaos tonight.

Me tonight or tomorrow.

Don't worry, dig, I won't take you out when I die and that's a promise

LOL. He came in his pajamas.

I don't think I'll live to see tomorrow.

[Swaggs]

Qwik, did you find anything last night in anyone's room?

[Mr. Wednesday]

I've got some misgivings about voting for Neon right now, but unfortunately I don't have time to do anything about it. I'll be away until after the vote is tallied.

[Qwikshot]

Ok..

Hoopguy's room reeks and oozes with slime that's everywhere. you don't want to know where it came from. This room looks to be a refuge for the aliens. There's a board with pictures of all the X-com soldiers!!! You see Coffee Warlord's photo slashed out, Peregrine with a malicious "X" over his face, several others you recognize like Mr. Wednesday but the majority of it has been destroyed, on purpose? The room seems to have not been used recently.

Your verdict: Alien.. some kind of minion. you just do not know what exactly.

Take it as you were.

[Vince]

That reference to Mr. W could be huge -- thoughts, guys?

[Raiders Army]

Alrighty....

Unvote Fouts
Vote Mr. W

[Mr. Wednesday]

I have no idea why they would be referencing me, unless it's a desperate attempt to deflect attention away from someone else.

[Swaggs]

I'm sticking with Neon Chaos for today.

Raiders Army, perhaps the medic can remedy your problem.

[Mr. Wednesday]

Hope I'm still alive when I get back. I'm one of the good guys, even if I haven't been much help when it's come to the voting.

[Qwikshot]

I'm only stating what I saw, I'm neither accusing nor ignoring, I'm just reporting what I saw.

[Raiders Army]

What's one more change?

Unvote Mr. W
Vote Neon_Chaos

*sigh*

Heheh...Fozzie's gonna have trouble counting my vote.

[Raiders Army]

Unvote Neon_Chaos
Vote Neon_Chaos

[Raiders Army]

Alrighty fellas, I'm off to play CoH and such...I'll see you after the vote.

[Qwikshot]

Unvote Richard Nixon
Vote Milton Berle

Wait...they're both dead...let's move along.

[Coffee Warlord]

Wait, this is X-Com...when's Coffee Warlord II report for duty?

I was wondering that myself when this game started. Haven't seen him in ages.

[hoopsguy]

Hoopsguy II is ready as an alternate - I want to frag some aliens!

[SirFozzie]

Hey guys, have to go out and pick up my car from the shop, I'll be back shortly after 8 to tabulate and tell what's going to happen..
