Exactly. And I don't think that Sonic Youth has really done anything wrong so I didn't want to lynch him either. Hence my throwaway of a vote. I hope those aren't looked at negatively; we had quite a few yesterday as well.

I've got to switch based on Qwik saying he believes that he was with both Heinz and CR the whole time. I'd hope at least one of them gets checked soon.

UNVOTE JEHEINZ72
VOTE ST.CRONIN


cronin is my second choice based on suspicion about the whole drug thing.

So you've got a necklace of Itzamna been given to you? Your 'object' has a name/looks like? It can convey protection? No? Oh, it's just an object. I see. It's a bit of a convenient 'find'. It's funny how going to the beach or something like snorkelling equals immediate non suspicious activity.

Nah, I just don't think either of the leading candidates has done much worth lynching so I was looking for someone with no votes so I wouldn't be piling on anyone. Wouldn't want to start a run of people flooding to a new person with 5 minutes left!

"C'mon now....I don't get this logic man...we've got to decide on something tangible...hate for us to be dead in the water getting picked up above or sharked on below...I still think Mr. Path is the most suspicious, then Cronin for all the hub-bub about the illegal substances...and man has that guy with the basketball been so quiet....I mean really quiet - like a shark."

I agree, it's not much of a reason. Problem is, I don't have much of a reason for voting for anyone else either. Sorry that the cards fell on you this way.. unless you're furry.

All of the ruins folks, including myself today as I went there today, saw no one and can be confirmed by no one.

For all we know, the underground/wolves all could've just said they went there, since no one would have to corroborate it.

I'm off to watch the football again. It's stupid early here and I'm really going to be paying for it by the end of today. Much like those who vote for me should if it turns up I've then gain enough votes.

It could also be wolves trying to see what it takes to get someone off the cruise too.

That's a weird vote. It's one thing to use that vote as a statement about who you believe to be more guilty, but you have to know people's alarm bells go off when people post at/right after the deadline.

He knows he's not getting a guided tour of the area if he votes for me.

I know it's frustrating, but we've all be the "new guy" at one point, it's just part of playing the game.

BTW Sonic, I do think that it's easier to place a vote for someone you don't know as well, but I think that's something all of us have to face at first. I hope it doesn't discourage you.

You see ahead the beautiful Grand Cayman Island as the ship slowly comes into dock. In what seems like ages, finally the captain is ready to open up the gates. Before he does, it appears that he once again has an announcement for all of the passengers:

"Enjoy the sights in GeorgeTown, but before you go, i once again would like to thank all of the loyal passengers for coming forth with various suspicious activiites and concerns. Once again however, there wasn't a substantial enough momentum behind any particular passenger that warranted me kicking them off of the ship.

Please continue to come to me with anything that you find fishy, and I will promise to look into it! Now enjoy the shore!"

Voting stage for turn 2 has ended. We are now in the event response phase which will end at 10pm EST tonight. I have not yet sent out PMs, but will be doing so shortly.

Don't know what to take from this. I still don't think SY is a "great" choice, but it kind of sucks to not have any info from two days of voting.

Assuming 40%, which I think is a fair assumption given what we know.

We might literally need a majority vote, i.e. 12 out of the 22 passengers.

We had about 32% for this one, so I imagine it has to be somewhere between 35-50%.

22 players - would it need to be 50% + 1 = 12 votes ?

I just got home from class and it looked like Cronin was getting more momentum then Path so I moved my vote there. To be honest I didn't even know the count when I did.

This isn't a bad thing looking at the win conditions though, buys us yet another day and gets us further in. I know a few of us think that the wolves can slow down or stop the boat but it still leaves more of us to deal with.

So what are we guessing now, a true majority? And does this give the wolves a voting advantage as they could account for a decent portion of that?

There is mentions of tiebreakers in the rules. My initial thought was a majority, but that seemed less likely once that was pointed out. I came up with 40% because it is a round number, and a threshold we haven't reached yet, but one which would also still allow for ties.

Since the vote wasn't even close, I wasn't really suspicious of the move, I was just warning you that you might take some heat after what happened with Heinz yesterday.

8/22 = 36.3%

9/22 = 40.9%

10/22 = 45.4%

11/22 = 50%

12/22 = 54.5%

I imagine we have to fall in there somewhere, unless there's a mechanism working that we haven't suggested.
