Yes

Alan + KWhit - what do you think has more value for tonight for Mrs Schmidty (and hopefully a Slayer) with their guard actions? Guarding one of you or the seer?

Basically, is your impression that we are in better shape playing werewolf - seer (but with part of our officer group) or werewolf - big parts of our officer group? Because even with 1-2 spawn out of the mix I'm thinking they are going to get to launch multiple attacks tonight. No phasers + fatigue makes us pretty much sitting ducks if last night is any indication.

Well, if you are good, then we are better off with Mrs.Schmidty protecting Passacaglia.. If you are bad, we are better off with Mrs.Schmidty protecting one of us. No real other way to cut it I am afraid.

[Alan T]

Plus I'm planning on re-reading through alot of the thread to give my farewell thoughts as I expect I'm a goner either way. I feel really good with what I have done as captain and if they do kill me off, I'll be rooting on the rest of the crew to finish off the spawn and complete the mission.

Hoops, it is like the great American novel, I just can't put it down.

Honestly, I'm fine with whatever way it goes down. I know the answer to your question (but don't want to accumulate any more Pass Points tonight!) but I tend to think that you have enough value as a cleared villager to make it an interesting question. Your posts/votes this game notwithstanding

Seriously, I'm hoping you have all the answers you need on me by tomorrow. Barring me flubbing my attack, we'll have a quick draw contest between me and the spawn on who attacks each other first. Or, and this would be even better, they will commit multiple resources to taking me out which keep others alive. But I think the odds are pretty good that you should have all the info you need on me at the start of D6.

C'mon random number generator!

I would urge you to help write a chapter or two of the next one. BK is setting a pretty high bar for me to shoot for with my next game, as he is reminding me in PMs now

You'll do it. I honestly think you have a shot at 30 people.

killy Chubby made me feel good. the fact that he was a spawn was a bonus

[bulletsponge]

^^ course it was obvious once he got MV (or whomever it was) to use thier power thingy

Man you guys are pussies for attacking a guy while he's at work.

[hoopsguy]

Honestly, I wish you had been here - the kills have been kind of dull, and I suspect you would not have gone down quietly if you had been around to defend yourself.

Plus this thread needs more posts.

[Tyrith]

Dead spawn = happy Tyrith.

Direct from BK's write up post. My vote stands as well.

Yes, but you said "together." It does NOT say we were "together."

Ya sorry boss. Not to make excuses but I had a looooong weekend in RL and got home in time to make my post (PM) and crash last night. Again, I mistakenly used page 1 as a reference as for who our doctors, or medical staff, were. Next time I'll double check in thread.

I've already been cleared.

[hoopsguy]

Mrs S - it happens. And we killed your new boss today

Our doc is Pass today. I would strongly suggest guarding either him or one of the other officers - I'm finally at a point where I firmly believe Alan/KWhit. In fact, you being cleared today was the tipping point. Proof that I actually believe that will come from spending my vigilante action on someone besides them - I had been banking it as an insurance policy up to this point.

If we have three officers as good, without any timetable to promote new ones, then we have eliminated the whole "Spawn Captain" scenario that sunk Spawn 2.

By Pass, which is why I said you'd both be spawn. Was just a question.

[Mrs. Schmidty]

It still bugs me that the Spawn felt comfortable taking their shot at both last night.

OUCH!

As far as the spawn, that is the EXACT reason I think Olie is spawn, otherwise I don't think they would have. Just my two copper pieces though.

[Danny]

BK, you said it would list the spawn as having roles, but would it say if the spawn dead was a member of the spawn counsel?

[Mrs. Schmidty]

I can duke Hoopsguy, and the vigilante kill off Chubby at night. Mrs.Schmidty can protect Passacaglia the doctor..

That frees up everyone to mutiny if they so choose based on the result of the hoopsguy duking, and the bad guys likely will kill off kwhit at night if not kwhit and myself..

Leaving 0 command officers and no one who can be unlynchable for the rest of the game. From there on out it is a straight WW game for everyone left...

Thoughts?

I am NEVER going to be able to live this down...I know it....

Yes, I will be protecting Dr. Caglia tonight.

[Mrs. Schmidty]

I'm almost caught up, sorry if I'm double posting or rehashing stuff that's already been cleared up.

[Danny]

Is Pass is being guarded than whoever the bodyguard is should look at guarding a high ranking officer *hint hint*

[hoopsguy]

It is good to be known for something.

Last thought on guard that I will throw out there - the water is pretty damn important as we get deeper into the game. If they 100% know that you are guarding a person that clears them up to take a shot at the water. So I would put at least a 10% possibility in your mind - while making decisions - that the cargo hold (which stores our water for tomorrow) might be worth a guard. Ditto the Water Plant, with the Water Replicator.

Schmidty should be guarding one of these two every evening, with or without a phaser, as that is his only night action and we have no beds. So that should provide some deterrant to the Spawn, but it is at least worth considering as a guard option.

That said, protect a person tonight

Sorry I missed the vote (although the fact that we got a spawn makes me happy, especially since my vote really wouldn't have been needed!) Last night turned out busier than I expected. I will be around for the night deadline to see what happens, and then maybe if the cargo hold is repaired, I can actually do something useful!

[claphamsa]

Wasnt hoops gonna kill olie? or did I miss something!

[Barkeep49]

Morning comes and it is another depressing night of reports. Not that the work Purdue & heinz did on the security plant, or the work clap & danny did on the cargo hold is depressing. Nor is the guarding of the water plant that Schmidty did depressing. What is depressing are the three dead bodies you find. The bodies of hoops, Mrs. Schmidty, and Tyrith. While the day has clearly belonged to the survivors, the night has been quite good to the spawn. The survivors can hardly afford another night with three deaths.

It looks like Hoops lost the draw on oliegirl last night. Seems likely she's the lynch choice for today. Pass, any thoughts on who you're going to scan today?

[Schmidty]

Yeah -- not oliegirl cuz I don't feel like dying!

[claphamsa]

Ill work on fixing the securty headquarters....

vote oliegirl

[Passacaglia]

But seriously, give me like 20 minutes to think about it.

[claphamsa]

so if there are 3 kills everynight, is that becasue there are 3 spawn left?

thats alot

[PurdueBrad]

WOW, bad night again.

I'm immediately putting in work on the security HQ. I ask that one other engineer double me up. The other two engineers need to put in their work on the cargo hold and then we can actually fix the beds.

vote Oliegirl

Got everything basic in because I just picked up NCAA 09.

[Alan T]

Engineers, can you have enough people to fix the security HQ today so I can order oliegirl to hand out some phasers before we lose that service for good too?
Should be able to fix the security HQ and the Cargo hold today if you all work right.

[PurdueBrad]

Claph and I will do security then.

Danny and Heinz do the cargo hold.

[claphamsa]

ive put in my odrder to ifx the HQ

[hoopsguy]

Survivors, good luck the rest of the way.

[Passacaglia]

I haven't been paying much attention to the engineers. I see 1 cycle to repair the cargo hold and the security HQ. Does that mean someone faked it?

Also, what's the status of saldana? If I recall, he can be moved from slave master to warden (although whoever can perform this action might now be dead), which means he can guard the HQ. It'd be nice to scan him before we do that, but probably not a huge deal.

For the security HQ, it may mean someone faked it. Tyrith, Heinz and I worked on it but Tyrith left after a little while, as my PM said, meaning he died. So we only got credit for 2 hours of work. I *assume* Tyrith's death means we got no credit for his work.

The cargo hold with one left means that both Danny and Claph did do their work.

[Alan T]

Kwhit, when you check in...

I asked BK already and he says that i can't order Oliegirl to give out phasers to 4 different people as each one would be 1 of my AP.. so lets do this..

You order Oliegirl to give out 1 of the unspent phasers to either yourself , or if you want someone else.. your call..

I'll order Oliegirl to give out 2 of the unspent phasers myself, which should take care of the remainder of the phasers that have charges.

You'll have to put your order in to be active once the security HQ is complete though.. I'll go ahead and put in my order to handle two unspent phasers.

[Barkeep49]

Wasting no time Purdue & clap begin work on the Security HQ.

No trainer or second officer left to be able to do that. Once the position is gone, we can't do the function. So everyone is locked into their current roles the rest of the way.

Thanks for the report. Can someone else confirm this?
