[QUOTE=Hockey Monkey]  
Since you put in some analysis, and hawkeyeop was all itching to vote for you again when I did,

Unvote sachertorte

Vote Hawkeyeop My reason for doing this is a blatant attempt to save my ass because I know I’m not scum. Sach has a good reason, and I’m willing to roll with it.

You find trying to get you off the clock scummy?

Ya know, I saw the request for a mod poke and that’s where my eyes stopped. Sorry about that.

Vote count is updated, Hockey has 4 votes on her.

Hawk has 2, sach and Hockey.

No clock since the Day ends before the clock would.

I’ve got a meeting in about 5 minutes so I most likely will miss the deadline. I hope I come back to find I’m not dead…but if I am, just go back and read the dossiers, and my posts.

Day is over. I can’t post a good Night start right now, but

Hockey Monkey - an associate

has been killed.

Color to come in the next hour or two. (Because I really feel bad about neglecting the color, and there will be color for this death dammit!)

You’ve refrained from cage-dancing until this point. That’s a point in your favor, I suppose?

Also, a heads up to everyone. I still haven’t heard from faithfool. She has said that she is having internet troubles, but if I don’t hear something from her by the end of the Night (almost 10 Days since her last post) she is going to have to be mod killed. It’s the way of the world.

Just a public announcement so no one can say there wasn’t fair warning.

Sach, you missed a similar fate by a hair. Do try to post a little bit in the comming days.

This goes to everyone. If you are having some real life issue that is preventing you from posting please do your best to either post to the game, or PM me or Mtgman about it.  
Color for the Night is still on it’s way.

Crud! I don’t know what to do!! I’m still having to do without and wouldn’t have been able to wrangle this post if I hadn’t had a friend actually _call_ me to tell me what was happening with the game. Geez guys, I’m so very, very sorry. Ever since my brother passed away in August, I’ve spent lots of time back home taking care of some stuff with his family. Needless to say, there’s been lots of stuff keeping me there dealing with issues and away from home where I still have constant internet access.

Anyway, enough about that. The Purveyor of the Laptop has left it with me for a few hours so that I don’t make the town lose, so I’ll stick around as long as I can. On top of everything else that’s been going on, I’m obviously really lost here. If someone would push me in a (quick?) direction, I’d be more than happy to try and do something right. ☹

Again, I apologize for how this all has worked out. Due to circumstances, this has at least taught me not to play in anything else that might be time consuming since I’ll never know for certain if an emergency will come up.

Don’t worry about it too much. It is only a game, and if we lose, we lose. Then we can start the next game sooner 🙂 Certainly family issues take priority.

Thank you **Hawkeyeop**. It’s just I’ve had so many problems in the recent years of my life that I hate, hate, hate to not be able to keep my word if at all possible. I appreciate you all’s understanding.

What Hawk said. It’s only a game. This late in the game I can’t sub you. So if you think you can spare a couple of hours to get caught up and post in the next 7 Days, that is great.

If you can’t, you can’t. Worst things have happened.

I have to leave for a good portion of the evening now. But I am going to do my damnedest to get some color posted tonight.

See you in a bit.
