I think space burials entail sticking the deceased into a pod and shooting 'em out to space.?

Eomer of the Rohirrim 06-12-2010 02:00 AM

Votes to be highlighted in red, eh? Ok, missed that. Is that normal nowadays? :confused:

Would anyone mind explaining to me how one does that?

Yeeep. Or if you're a Vogon, you toss them out of the airlock still living. But overall, something along those lines.

Oh, Terran Intelligence put some kind of implant in your skull that melted your brain, that's all.

Oh, well, I'll correct it then.

Nerwen 06-12-2010 05:57 AM

The following players must vote toMorrow, or at least come up with a reasonable excuse for not voting, else they face modfire:

Keeper of Dol Guldur
Pitchwife
wintywinty
Rikae


Eomer, Sally and Wilwa all made invalid votes, but I'll let that pass this time.

In light of the recent disaster to the good side, I have decided to invoke a backup rule, which I'd already had in mind. It may or may not come into play, depending on who survives the Night, and won't make much difference anyway. But still, it's something.

Eomer of the Rohirrim 06-12-2010 06:20 AM

Wargs are great.

Cheers Paranoia!

Pitchwife 06-12-2010 07:06 AM

Sorry for failing to vote! I intended to come back after a little sleep and had set my alarm clock to wake me an hour before DL, but slept soundly through it. When I finally did wake up (briefly) and remembered to check the thread, DL was over. So much for thinking I could hold out till DL on Day 1 at least...:o
I'll have to vote some hours early during the week, so it won't happen again.

I realize the DL's pretty bad for you, Pitch– sorry about that, but I had to go with the majority.

Rikae 06-12-2010 08:07 AM

I'm sorry too. Instead of getting the DL from the admin thread, I just looked at the post beginning day 1 and concluded it was midnight my time. It won't happen again.

Oh, and BG - I've been assassinated as the seer on Day 1 (Nogrod...grrr). Happens to the best of us! ;) Watching a game from the afterlife can be pretty fun, though, especially when you know something the players don't.

Never mind, of course you had. My fault for not being sensible.

What she said. I was the first lynch as the Seer in my second game, too - it's an occupational hazard of being gifted. Better luck next time!:)

Yeah I know. Yesterday was a really really bad day for me :( I just hate not being able to post..

satansaloser2005 06-12-2010 01:27 PM

Crap, I'm sorry, Nerwen. I was in a rush when I voted (obviously) and didn't think to look at the formatting requirements. Won't happen again, I promise! :)

satansaloser2005 06-13-2010 08:52 AM

Oh for the love of darn. :(

Also, I'll get you next time, Rikae. (This in relation to post count, to be perfectly clear.)

Haha! That makes this slightly more acceptable. ;)

Shastanis Althreduin 06-13-2010 09:20 PM

Ugh, crap. I apologize profusely for not voting - I've been playing a board game with my friends with my laptop right beside me, yet completely lost track of the time. :mad: Won't happen again, promise.

Blind Guardian 06-17-2010 01:13 PM

So, since everyone knows everyone and Sallys posting can I?!?? PLEASE!!

Shastanis Althreduin 06-17-2010 01:15 PM

Stupid rogue android. :(

No. The game will end in about six and a half hours. Then we can all post.

Actually, I have the feeling I'm not needed anymore. I mean if Nerwen can't count three votes....really....so I'll probably die again (properly this time lol) and shush.

Why doesn't Sally get any popcorn? :(

Pitchwife 06-17-2010 02:48 PM

Sorry. Popcorn for sally, BG, Eomer, wilwa, Mira, Lottie, Noia (a big portion, and with some maple syrup on top, if you like) and Izzy. And a second helping for Captain McNerwen. Any anonymous spectators, just help yourself.
If I can get you anything from the fridge while I'm at it, just say so.

Ooh! Popcorn! You know, if you dip popcorn in pizza sauce and nacho cheese, it tastes awesome. :p

Loslote 06-17-2010 03:03 PM

*dances along to intense music from the thread*

You know, it's funny, but you can still hear pretty well from in deep space. Funny how that works. ;)

Isabellkya 06-17-2010 03:04 PM

*grabs some popcorn*

I don't know why. But seemingly knowing the possible outcomes is much more intense than not knowing.
With each suspenseful post, I think I get closer to the screen. xD

Blind Guardian 06-17-2010 03:07 PM

I can't eat popcorn...got any potato chips?

"Cut-throat"

wintywinty 06-17-2010 03:20 PM

Hey, I'm pretty tired of playing this intense music on the piano, can I have some popcorn too?

Only nuts and bolts in oil for you.

wintywinty 06-17-2010 03:24 PM

Hey hey, I'm only made of metal when I'm posting in the other thread.

Blind Guardian 06-17-2010 03:54 PM

Nuts and bolts, wintywinty

Rikae 06-17-2010 04:01 PM

Hey, you've been having a party here in the afterlife while we struggled for survival?

:D

Loslote 06-17-2010 04:07 PM

If I may, I think I have a suggestion for who to "win" this game.

Nilp.

but I'd rather vote myself
Clearly he was in this game, and he did not die, thus he should win. :Merisu:

Sure. Also peanuts (my personal favourite), or anything else you'd like, including some tasty lubricants for the Android.

Indeed.
(for newcomers: the reference is to Nilpaurion Felagund, captain of TGS Nargothrond, who has become famous for habitually voting himself on Day 1; hence the verb 'to Nilp oneself'.

wilwarin538 06-17-2010 04:27 PM

yay for popcorn party!!!

By the way, I'm totally lost as to what's going on. I think I'll have to read it a few more times before it starts to make any sense to me. Seems "utter confussion" was my default setting this game.


Hey winty, since I'm the Android Tech maybe I could turn you into the W.I.N.T.Y.W.I.N.T.Y (Wireless Intelligent Neohuman Trained for Yearly Warfare, Immediate Nullification and Thorough Yelling) :D

Sooo...Wilwa found an awesome Cyborg name generator on the internet, and has made a list of all the results for everyone playing (don't think I missed anyone) :D

I'm not so sure about 'Intelligent', but 'Hazardous' certainly fits.
