Well there was a chance I didnt know the rule or missed it and messed up allowing my lynch...

But we had figured that rule out a while back,and it was actually part of Fouts, WSU and my strategy to try to get me into captaincy.

We then only had to figure out if there was a vigilante and if so who it was.

So did Fouts turn anyone the night after my lynching?

Alan, why did you decide to leave the planet? They couldn't ever leave the planet with you dead. Once you were in the air, if the vigilante got you they had a chance to win outright.

I had not considered Alan because he had reportedly done so well in fighting against the Overlord and, in the time that I had been guarding him (brilliant move in hindsight), he had not stirred at all.

Realistically, I guess the game was over as soon as Alan took over, since we could never have taken off.

I had been talking for over a week about how we should have left the planet, so if I had suddenly not left the planet I felt some people would become suspicious of me.

I felt at that point, the overlord was dead and being on the planet was not going to gain me anything else. I figured it was our game to lose then, and it was just a plan of trying to figure out some systematic method to working it out to our favor.

I didn't want to do too much too bold till I knew who the vigilante was and took care of him.

I don't. KWhit didn't know who all the Spawn were and so there was a possiblity he'd kill Alan. However, he tried to send in an order to scan Alan. So that really was the final nail in the coffin and so I ended the game

Dubb played a very good game in terms of always being on the right person - it was uncanny how often he chose to spy on a spawn instead of another exhausted person or some random selection.

Yep, dubb was tough to beat. Although he went MIA the last 2-3 days.

Also, I didn't turn anyone, that was Alan's job. I was just the hit man.

So you converted CW after we lifted off and there were just a few of us left?

Thanks AlanT.

Barkeep, I have a question. I thought that once the ship lifted off, no one could be turned into spawn. That is how I read the following rule from the front page:

After lift-off no new spawn may be planted (although Spawn may still evolve)

I read this as meaning no survivors could be converted, but if a spawn had already been planted in you, it could evolve and take over. Was my interpretation of this rule in error?

Qwik was the vigilante, but so was i...neither of us got to use our power..i was lynched early, and qwik prob. couldnt finger a spawn enough to use it. Either way, double vigilante not being used was a blow for the survivors

I don't know if this has to do with your question or not, but after the first overlord attack on the ship my PM had a phrase in it that I found myself sort of sympathizing with the dead spawn. I kept expecting to have something happen that might convert me but it never did.

OK, I'm back. Sorry to bump an old post, but my internet completely crapped out for over a week. I was told some stupid story about the towns two main internet routers both going out. I wasn't aware that companies either A: Had "routers" of sort, or that B: If a town this size only has two and they both crap out why it would take a week to instal new ones.

I haven't read it, but the last night b/f my internet went out I spied on Fouts and would have gotten him lynched, had I had the means to do so.

[dubb93]

Bullcrap, Fouts made it to the end. That p's me off. Here was my PM:

You follow Fouts. And tonight there is some action. You see him leave his room and make his way into king’s room. You hear a brief shout. And then a long while later you see Fouts emerge, look around to see if he’s being watched, and then head back to his own cabin.
