No, the game will immediately end if that is the case.

And so, with less than 24 hours to go, let’s extend a warm and sincere THANK YOU! to **Storyteller** for the last two months of aggravation, inspiration, coordination, frustration, analysis, subterfuge and just plain fun! I’ve enjoyed myself mightily. Much appreciated.

I know we have discussed that Sario/Sangfroid tie to death, but I am wondering if I have missed something. No matter which of the players Sario finally put his vote on, that player could AND SHOULD have then switched his vote to Sario.

Prof P, Cygnus and myself had the votes on Sario. None of us three had any votes against us. Anyone else caught in a Sario-created tie could have switched their votes to Sario and lived. Yet somehow Sario selected the one active player who was there at the EOD who would not switch his vote.

Yup!

The last thing I want to do is rob Storyteller of his right to close out the game in whatever fashion he chooses.

Madame P. would MUCH rather I don’t play, but there’s still room for more in Dante G’s upcoming game.

Sangfroid and Cygnus both are awaiting results. That tells me they don’t already know.
