Sorry Sam, I haven't had as much time to add thoughts this episode. But I'll give it a shot.
- Relieved I seem to have hopefully avoided an Exile in Episode 2 yet again. Talk about deja-vu moment from Spies 6! - Unfortunately it now seems like I've spent most of my spare time and energy on defending myself, rather than keeping a track of all the individual arguments ongoing in the group. - Looking forward to surviving the next Imprisonment ~ can't really see the Spies getting rid of me at the moment. It's a ploy which worked last time, and may well work again. Only this time, if I do make it to the end, I'll have some better constructed thoughts and arguments as to why so and so is a Spy. - Bosses come back from overseas the end of next week or the start of the next. This will reduce my time online during my day greatly. I am however hoping for at least a couple of hours in the morning with which to catch up with everyone. And my night activity will not change. Will see how it goes.

* Who you think is a Spy and why
Episode One: Alexei, Zede and possibly Nita. Alexei for obvious reasons, though his apology to Dane in his 'farewell and vote' post was a bit odd. However if he is Cit, I would've expected a bigger fight. And if he is a Cit, just jumping on suspect to suspect without any individual thoughts of his own is not useful in the long run anyway. Plus, I would've assumed if he's a PR he would've outed it by now. So it's not a bad vote even if he does flip Cit. Zede: Still can't get my head around his explanations of where he was and why he wasn't online straight away after roles were announced. Even I was around. And that's saying something. And his explanation of 'I just told them the truth' when I asked him what he told his accusers, just seems mediocre. Nita: Mega-aggro when Allan called her a spy. Spouted threads about him being dumb. Seems over the top.
Episode Two: Allan, Zed, Savannah. Allan, because well it just doesn't make sense why you'd lie so much and such stupid little things, and some big ones (i.e. chatting to Owen about his suspicions) and just not bothering to read the cases in the Burg. When he left there was just the one, on Alexei, and it was freaking short. Skimming was not required. Group chat maybe ~ I have been known to do that on occasion, but a small thread on someone's thoughts is much easier to read and takes stuff all time. There's 2 things I keep thinking about here: Spies6Pete, and "Spies don't need to read". I'm reasonably comfortable with my vote for him this episode. And if he does flip cit, tbh I don't think it'll be a great loss. Zed: Still in no way is cleared because he upgraded his AIM responses from "..." to legible English and posted a bs case on me in the Burg, as well as failing to even bother to answer my questions (at least one of the four was serious!). Though this seems to clear him in the minds of a few, which does concern me. If however Savannah is exiled and flips Spy, I will reconsider. That'd be 2 instances where he's been the target of the Spies. Savannah: Have been curious on her this episode - however her allegiance atm really depends on how Zed flips - she's done nothing really apart from push Zed, however she's now moved onto me and Allan as soon as she smelled blood that wasn't her own.
* Your reaction / thoughts towards events that have just occurred
Episode One: Alexei has just pretty much rolled over and died in the group chat when we quizzed him about his independent thoughts, or lack thereof. It seems like he hasn't spent much time developing his own ideas, but more on following the thoughts of others. Owen and I did have a giggle at his farewells on AIM though. That was definitely worth my time.
Episode Two: Am I regretting my decision to jump off the Alexei choochootrain? No. Maybe it would saved me a whole lot of time this Episode, but I did what I did because I thought I was right. And I could still be right. If however Savannah goes and she's a Spy, I may be a little more bemused. Owen has changed a bit this Episode - a bit more defensive and almost mean in a lot of the Group chats. Interesting.
Stephanie has also copped a beating this ep, along with myself and Savannah. Still get a cit vibe off of Steph though, and I really appreciate her sticking up for me in the chats. I'd say she's my closest ally at the moment. Am also very interested to see who the doctor saved - I have a feeling it was either Owen or Nita from our side, or maybe Cinnamyn from the Democrats. I'd be thinking of taking her out if I was a Spy. She may hide behind a large black woman, but there's a finely tuned brain in them big bones.
* What happened leading up to the last Exile
Episode One: Ongoing. Still haven't talked privately to Rondak, Nita (for more than a minute), Kiara (about anything substantial), Allan or Alexei. Lots of people considering the amount of time I've been on.
Episode Two: Still haven't spoken one on one with Rondak, and to be honest, I don't feel like I am missing out on anything. I have read some posts with him involved, and though the whole 'asking what a bus is' twice is really odd, I don't think that's conclusive to a spy alliance. It is also entirely possible he has a PR, and is trying to hide that. I look forward to getting into the group chat after I've finished this, and see how Savannah is holding up. I think she's going today.
* Juicy gossip you just heard
Episode One: Hmmm. Steph has decided Savannah is in Jenny's pocket and will do whatever Jenny tells her to do. I am tired of Jenny jumping on me the second I get on with a Hey! Join the chat! DO YOU THINK I CANNOT FIND MY WAY TO THE CHAT ROOM BY MYSELF? DO YOU THINK I AM RETARDED?
Episode Two: Hambone made me eat my words re. not being able to construct his own case on someone. Whether it's right or not is yet to be found, but I think he did a pretty good job - especially if he is new.
* Your future plans for the game
Episode One: Avoid Jenny at all costs. I might start signing in as offline. That'll fuck with her. Continue with Owen to make funny jokes at other people's expense.
Episode Two: Avoid having 2 independently lame cases being shoved on me for Episode 3. This will allow me to actually do something other than type reasons why I am not a Spy. That would be just dandy.
* What you really think about your fellow players Jenny = Too nice. It'll be a rare, vulnerable moment when I'll be in the mood for a chat with her. < Still nice, but not quite as nice. Coming up on people's radars for doing very little apart from making sure people don't get lost and posting group chats.
Sav = Seems like she could have very good bitch potential. This is a good thing. < still agree with this, however looking more Spylike as the days go on.
Steph = I enjoy our chats together. No issues here. < This is unchanged. Felt a bit sorry for her after her roasting by the Anagrams and Owen.
Owen = Funnnnyyyy. < Not sure about him now. Still funny, but seems to have put up a few walls.
Hambone = My candidate for possible stalker of the game. But he's a sweet stalker. < Cracked me up this episode with his thoughts on me. Impressed with his thoughts on Allan.
Gabe = Reminds me of Jason and Pete from Spies6. Not giving much away personally. Boring. < Unchanged.
Zed = Zzzzzz. < Definitely unchanged.
Allan = No idea. But I think his roleplaying abilities need a little bit of work. Not that I can talk. I am the most Australian sounding South African Zulu woman ever. < Spy.
Kiara = No idea. Freaky we're both going through the same IRL situations at the moment though. Unless she made them up. We she may have. Another Pete possibly? < Interesting to see how the new Kiara unfolds. Haven't gotten a chance to talk with her yet.
Nita = Not a fan yet. That may change. < Unchanged, but I do like her interrogation techniques. She's played FB mafia, so still thinking this may be Katie J. Who else do I know has played Spies before? David? No idea what he's like, so it could be him too. If it's someone new to Spies I will be impressed.
Rondak = Needs to get laid. < Unchanged.
Tina = Needs to get laid. < Needs to stop harrassing children in McDonalds and do a bit more. He's obviously smart, but perhaps a little lazy. I'd like to hear more of his thoughts.
Dane = Needs to stop getting laid. < Unchanged - I'd like to hear a bit more from him apart from the odd amusing post. Just because he helped push Alexei over the top doesn't mean his job is done.
