I suspect that the reason Pleo hasn’t counted Hawk’s unvote of Storyteller is that it doesn’t meet his criteria for an unvote.

That makes the voting tied.

Please explain this.  
If I recall correctly, we have played in Three previous games together.  
Sekham, we were both Masons.  
YSI, I was scum and you were Town.  
Cecilvania, You were scum and I was Town.

When have you previously expressed “getting mad at” me?

Gah.

Misread the votechart in thread, but it’s better now, I think.

I could have used another hour or two.

Or not, since two votes had been placed in a very few minutes.

I’m ok with a Disintegration of Storyteller, because knowing his alignment will help when evaluating the last hour or two.

I just have to say that I resemble this remark in this game too, and I’m not on any cold medication or feverish. I am doing a bit of long-overdue ass-kicking and name-taking at work this week as well, and some of that might be oozing into my play a bit.

Back to the game…

My votes are staying where they are. Boozahol’s views on how I should be using my power are irrelevant. He’s conveniently glossing over the fact that the behavior he describes as the only thing that a Good player would do at this point is self protect and be very transparent about it, is also quite possibly what an Evil/Chaotic player would do with the protection ability. It strikes me as gotcha debate, and I’m not going to participate further aside from letting my vote speak for me.

And sinjin’s case dovetails in as an attempt to create a push against me while leveraging Boozahol’s vote, and her case is nonsensical and uses really bad out of context quoting.

He’s a bard. (heehee)

I don’t know why he’s singing Hotel California, although I like it. 🙂  
I just finished with a customer about 10 minutes ago who purchased two $40K vehicles from us at the same time. Whew! I didn’t mean to miss the deadline, but I couldn’t read fast enough to catch up, and frankly the guy with $80K had priority. 😛

Our ghostly friend has it right.

One new song each Turn. It gets you the fun of identifying them. (You might have trouble with Turn 0, if you aren’t in to 70s progressive rock.)

I’ll publish a complete playlist after the game is over. 😉

I apologize, guys - I don’t think I got my action in on time, and since I sent it in in a panic before I read what had happened after I got off work it didn’t make any sense anyway. I had a terrible day at work, came home, picked up a book, and fell asleep - just now woke up. I thought I might have gotten it in under the wire, but now I see I sent it in at 3:07 anyway.

Don’t feel too bad. I nearly forgot I needed to send in my action last Turn. This not having a Night makes things weird.

Mine got in but it was close and it only went through because I came up for air from work in time.

Me, too :mad: I got called into my meeting early and just missed getting my action in under the deadline. I don’t think **Pleo** is going to be nice and let it in.

This is a major blunder on my part, and I apologize. FUCK!!!

Bummer and all that. (Storyteller, I’m sorry. I seem to enjoy putting myself into a situation where I accuse someone of not being stupid enough to say what they just said. I suck.)

So storyteller wants Hawkeyeop and me dead. Any takers?
