Episode 8 - Do or Die, and not the Role.

[Jenny]

Well I'm likely going to be dead this episode, but let's see what I can do anyways.

I don't even know what to think with Hali. He'd dead now though, so in the end it really doesn't matter, but just for the sake of getting it out there for later, the only thing I can think of is either

A: The whole role was a lie.
B: He did have the role, but never actually got to use it.
C: He read how his power worked wrong and screwed up the information.

Frankly, I'm thinking it was A and he was pulling a gambit. Way to go Hali. Way to go.


Anyways, not much I can do about that now. Let's see where I'm at and where makes the most sense.

[Jenny]

Oh hey, I can't believe I forgot.


Kiara has that mortician role thing. If Awohali really was pulling a role out of thin air, we'll be able to confirm that after imprisonment. And if he's telling the truth about the role, then I lose all faith in humanity.

[Jenny]

Oh right, we have a break now. Well heck with that, not like the spies are going to have a break.

Well ok technically they do. But that ruins my whole figure of speech, so nyeh.

Not really sure exactly what the spies would have done with the situation last exile. Pretty much the whole thing was one big jackpot for them. Two citizens likely to get exiled, and then one suddenly calls the other a spy by saying they have a role. The spies probably fell over backwards with their luck.

I do want to look back into stephanie a bit more. I'd heard before she was going to vote me even before that whole thing started, really not sure where that came from. Something to look into while I can.

[Jenny]

Actually, you know what? This fits last night's exile rather well.



Ain't no doubt about it.

EDIT: Old youtube link died, so I fixed it with a new one.

[Jenny]

So we got an opportunity to get our votes back through some posting challenge.

It says that the first to post in the topic gets their vote back as long as nobody else posts in the same minute.

The wording is a little misleading, it's not going to be a race, it's going to be an endurance run. Who can keep posting in the topic until everyone else has missed the same minute.

Well this is going to be my best chance of getting my vote back in ages. It's basically an activity challenge. The last time I had to do one of these, it was in a Mole game and it went for 84 hours. I think I can handle it.

The biggest problem is going to be getting access to a computer. My laptop is still out, and my sister has suddenly decided she's going to need today to do some college stuff. So I'm going to have to try to jump on the one remaining computer, and make sure I can hold it for the night somehow while the challenge goes on. If I can manage that, I'm prepared to bring in a few of the two liter soda bottles we have around, and stay up all night if I need to for this.

Just like old times or something. Hope it goes well, I could use a break like this right about now.

[Jenny]

So far I've survived one attempt at stealing the computer away. Let's hope it stays that way.

And meanwhile, oh look. Hali really didn't have a role. Who'd have imagined that?

Of course certain people seem to think that it just makes Kiara a spy too.

Yeah because that makes total sense. Never mind the fact that the only reason her role is outed is because she got nominated, which I helped with. What can you do sometimes, huh?

[Jenny]

Well I think at this point I have most of my family annoyed at me for using this computer, but oh well. Not much I can do when my charger is in the mail.

Better friggin win this so I don't have to deal with getting stupid glares all day tomorrow for nothing.

[Jenny]

Awesome, the site doesn't want to load for me for a minute, and I lose the challenge.

Yeah that's about my luck.

[Jenny]

Going to have to post some chats early, since I have no idea how much I'm going to be able to be on tomorrow, and I'd rather not get penalty votes for stupid crap.

[Jenny]

Barely was able to get on today. Lousy timing for the rest of the family to need the computers.

Looks like the nominations are on myself (obviously), rondak, claude, and dane.

Only one out of those I think is a spy, and I'm the one that nominated them. Well this is going to be interesting at any rate.

[Jenny]

So Owen just told me that Cory was in fact the doctor, and had protected Gabriel way back when. Only one save though, hence why he was dead the next round.

Well crap. That's not exactly helpful right now.

[Judge Sam]

Just wanted to thank you for writing all these awesome confessionals and doing the videos, they are great. =) People will really like reading them after the game is over. I'm enjoying having you play, but you're in a tough spot right now. Hopefully there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

[Jenny]

I wish I got to do more videos, but my laptop going out kind of put a stop to that. My charger is in the mail, but if I get exiled this round, I'm probably not going to get that charger until after the fact.

I think part of the problem is that everyone seems to expect everyone else to be mafia playing robots, that are incapable of screwing up, and always make the best play possible. You have to remember that sometimes people will just plain screw up. Besides, it'd be no fun if the game was played by a bunch of robots.

I'm hoping I can convince these people not to vote me, but at least if I do get exiled, it won't be a complete waste. Should bring out plenty of information that narrows things down a bit for the burg. It will be 9 to 4 though if we have a cit exile here, so things are really going to have to improve soon.


Sing it with me everyone! "Always look on the briiiight side of death! Phwee woo, phwee woo we woo we woo. Just before you draw your terminal breath! Phwee woo, phwee woo we woo we woo."

[Jenny]

So, it sounds like Claude is going to ignore the activity from the sound of tonight's group chat. Again.

I swear, if we end up losing this because Mr. Receeding Hairline gets himself auto eliminated, I'll bash his head in. We're getting down to the wire with people as it is, we don't need more people getting eliminated for stupid crap like that.

[Jenny]

So since I'm likely about to get exiled, how bout some fitting music?
