Totally unnecessary spoiler space . . . . . . . . . That was fun, but kind of exhausting. Apologies to everyone. I’m not usually quite that much of an asshole. 😃 ---

Still secretly cheering for the hosts, especially now that I’m guessed. (And a sign that I’m playing way too much Mafia: I just had an idea to do a mafia setup where the player with the LEAST votes gets lynched! :eek: ) ---

spoiler space . . . . . . . . . Although at this point, I think the hosts have figured it out. It really is kind of fun reading the various guesses directed at me “has party backwards?” (No, I have a very specific idea of what is “weird” about the hosts) “stalker” (Not exactly) “Conspiracy Theorist” (if you look at things from just the right angle) “Hosts are a reptilian Super Race” (Um, not quite sure where the reptilian part comes from–though I can understand the Super Race part) “Hosts are just aliens” (Much better–my PM said “sci-fi aliens”, and that’s what I’ve been doing. Non-specific, not-quite human, but probably humanoid sci-fi aliens. Not neccessarily sinister, but I did think they might have telepathy, or futurisitic gadgetry or something) ---

I don’t understand why we put space… But here… Is my space… They seem to have no clue what I’m doing. I have a “word-based” one like I did last time, where I had to always mention a color. I was guessed in short order. This time I am trying to space it out a bit more and be less obvious. My thing is getting harder to do, but Diomedes just threw me a softball (thank god for Jeeves & Wooster!) Anyway, they’re trying to guess based on my actions and not on my words. Fun 🙂 ---

We put space here so the hosts can’t read our private little chit-chats Crikey, they’re on to me! I knew I should’ve waited with the Cabaret post. Oh well, I’m glad I’ve lasted this long. Hey twicks, how much time do we have left before the game is over? ---
