Hmmmm....

I'm suspicious of this. An insta bandwagon on msteelers based on a wild, albeit interesting, idea? Are we really without any better leads on anyone?

I'll vote msteelers because it looks like that's the way the ball is rolling, I don't have a better candidate to offer, and I'm all for keeping the game moving but I kinda think our votes should have gone elsewhere.

I actually kind of support msteelers idea that Crux is a likely target due to his absence from the game compared with the amount of time it takes the things to vote each night.

..or someone could throw out MsSteelers as a completely illogical idea and see how many jump on without any explination and expose themselves as Things really quickly?

A cunning plan excepting the fact that it's going to be pretty difficult to switch the majority to anybody else for this round, meaning a probable missed test and another thing added to the ranks. Hopefully the idea won't turn out to have been crazy after all.

Considering this game is going to go thru 2006 and into 2007, I think one could take the ability to at least know the Things and not be able to kill em as a victory too!

I think msteelers already had the majority, or did we do away with that rule? I just voted for the deaths of three Things in a row, hopefully this will be the fourth.

Pharaoh, in accordance with my previously mentioned change of heart from the last time this came up, and in the interest of moving the game along quicker, I'd like to pretend you didn't change your vote back just now, and that henceforth the test is fixed and unchanged as soon as a majority is reached.

You have a few hours to object strenuously as time is a little limited for me right now.

I dont think Karegor is infected. He has been a frontrunner in many burnings and I believe the only chance they had to infect him recently, they infected MSTEELERS.

I dunno who to vote for though, researching now.

Uh, I -started- the bandwagons on Chaosraven, Remus, and Bakhtosh. I also voted for msteelers to get burned. pr0ner doesn't post -at all- so I don't know a reason one way or the other to vote for him. Hope we get one, but I have yet to see the evidence.

pr0ner. the evidence is weak but at some point the non-playing players win by default.

Here we've been going crazy trying to savce ourselves from the monsters, but what have we become? We have gaze too long into the abyss, my friends. Whatever the outcome of this torment, not one of us will leave here again truly human.

well certainly an interesting round. pretty much at the point where the things seem to be in the vote to burn pool. defintely has to be 1, playing along.

we've killed 3 vocal in a row. and 1 silent. unless my math is off.

3 things remain.

of the silent, im suspicious of Caine. no valid reason other than he's a more likely target than crux.

of the vocal, im suspicious of Pharaoh. last second vote change seemed like an attempt to save msteelers.

Well, we know who the next target is...Kraegor.

Since Im the person who successfully identified Chasoraven, Remus, and Mssteelers, you'd have to be a Thing to want me out of the game.

how many people are gonna attempt to claim responsibility for "finding" those 4?

i mean im impressed. instantaneous awareness of their guilt. sort of a shared conciousness thing i suppose?

wonder where that ability came from....

regardless pharaoh, you will notice how i use caution in order to avoid a badwagon.

i simply state an observation to incite discussion. But sure "that" makes me evil.

..or you get pegged instantly as a Thing for being overzealous in your identification of targets and post a reply within minutes of being identified, but in fact post twice, a sign of desperation :lol:
