Two reasons. 1. At game start, I had not encountered switches before, and I had no idea whether GladOS was something outside any player control (Besides switches) or a role name. It took a day or two to realize it was probably a SK role name (Based on that character). 2. I would not have been long for this game, had I. There’s another one out there, and who knows if it’s gone or not. ---

I’m familiar with the games - I was picturing our mods being right bastards and having some kind of evil AI outside the players that would influence / mess with us at the start of the game. ---

[GLaDOS, short for Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System, is the sole antagonist of the 2007 puzzle game Portal](http://www.giantbomb.com/glados/3005-722/) in the linked blurb GLaDOS “wished to carry out what seemed to be a variant of the Schroedinger’s Cat experiment\*, asking for neurotoxin from the Aperture employees so that she may conduct it.

Sachertorte’s death scene: > [@](#): > > One among them did not fall directly to sleep as the others did; he went instead to his basement, where a small shrine had been erected. The shrine was surrounded by candles and incense, and at its center was a stone idol in the perfect shape of an upraised middle finger. But tonight, a package had been placed next to the shrine. It was large and oddly shaped, with curious protuberances. Our protagonist puzzled and puzzled over the package. It looked like nothing he had ever seen. He knew it would be better, wiser, to leave it - to leave the basement altogether - but his curiosity had always been his chief problem. Cautiously, he tore away the paper. > > There you are! cried a strange and friendly voice, and then everything was bullets. In the end, the Molotov Cocktail tossed through the basement window an hour later was essentially pointless, though it did eliminate most of the evidence, and all of the candles. > > sachertorte, who was The First Deacon of the Cult of Lutha, has been Day Killed I know, color is just color (or maybe colour) but that struck me as a bit weird. Especially now, in light of the GLaDOS info. ---

I can’t believe we’re even contemplating leaving an SK alive. I was prepared to continue voting **Hal** toDay prior to **mhaye** ’s big reveal, but at least someone was kind enough to dispatch **Hal**. Otherwise I’d be having a tough time deciding which one we should string up toDay. But I don’t see how it’s even a question at this point? **vote cookies** ---

Well played, Sir. I will probably take at least another of you out with me. 0:) Your parents would be so proud.

You don’t even have to recall, the numerous posts discussing it are still there. But you are correct, there doesn’t seem to be any danger of her not being lynched. That doesn’t make me like the idea any more. ---
