I won't have any internet access while I'm away so I was wondering if anyone here wanted to take over while I'm gone. Or even two people. I haven't figured out the exact schedule but it's likely Tuesday July 13th - exile 5 (i'm here for that) Wed + Thurs - days off Thursday - I leave Saturday - Imp 6 (you would do this, along with role powers) I come back Sunday night. So you'd be around for Friday - Sunday, and do Imprisonment 6. It doesn't have to have a story at all lol, unless you really felt a desire to write one. I just need someone to announce who is Imprisoned at the exact time Imprisonment is scheduled for. And then roles will be a mess but I can give you instructions for that. I'd much appreciate it! Thanks.

Sorry Sam, too much going on for me as well, plus my current time zone would make it all the more difficult as well.

I'm not having a fake character take over the game so if you want to do so, "Tonisha," post who you are.

Also, I can see how much free time I have, but I can take a stab at possibly making an imprisonment video for it.

Sorry for three posts in a row, but I just whipped this up and wondered if you all thought this would be a good start to an imprisonment video? I'm going to update any facts I used and an updated leader board, change the yellow cause it's hard to read and any small typing errors I made, but yeah.
If you think it's good, I'll either go do some filming out and about with some hopefully creepy footage, or just tell a small story using pictures. I just included a few 'safe' people to show what it'd look like.
(Also, yes, it's unlisted don't worry).

Very good video Dave, make sure to change the second font from yellow to red as its unreadable.

What I would do is reduce the brightness of the background images, to emphasize the text.

Dave and the person who is Tonisha, I would love it if you both of you would take over while I'm gone! Tonisha ~ you don't have to do this, but I would love it if you posted the critiques on Friday. I created a subboard in the Burg. This takes some time unfortunately. You would need to copy / paste every critique into one word file, and organize by who it is critiquing. It's important to shuffle up the order of the critiques, whether it is in the word file or when you post them. For example you wouldn't want Chance's critiques to appear first in every new thread. Create a new thread for each person in the subboard and post one critique per post. Dave ~ It'd be great if you took care of Imprisonment 6, which will be at 6:00 PM CDT Saturday. Just so you know, I usually start three to four hours before Imprisonment is scheduled to begin, but that's when I haven't written the story yet lol. Three if I have an outline of the story, four if not. Videos take longer. I guess I'm just saying try and have the video done way before then! lol. The video/story is just part of it. Then you have to present it, which I guess in your case will be quicker because you just have the video haha. To present it please make this the first post: [b][size=7][center][font=Rockwell][color=Red]IMPRISONMENT 6[/color][/font][/center][/size][/b]
[center][img]http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g221/SorintheSeeker/prison_bars2-1.jpg[/img][/center]
[size=4] It's now the 28th day of the game and we are approaching the middle of it. Both the Spies and Citizens have taken hits... but which side has come out of this boxing match with the advantage after Round 5? Momentum and morale is a big part of Spies, but it is also a part that can flip at any point. One bad decision can lead to an avalanche of unfortunate events that are hard to make right. But with boldness, firm statements, and a little elbow grease, any boulder can be turned around and pushed right back up that hill.
Today's Imprisonment will be presented by a good friend Dave! He has made a video for you and is about to post it. If you could kindly wait 3 minutes before spoiling the end of the video in chat, so that others may watch it, it would be appreciated. It's a stellar video and I strongly recommend watching it and letting the suspense build!
Announcements will follow after the video.
[/size]
Then the next post your video. Then as the final post: [size=4] Imprisoned Player : please post Final Words in your confessional immediately.
Judge Sam: “I am sure I will have plenty of nice things to say about this Imprisoned Player when I return."
Judge Sam: “Nominations for Exile 6 will be due at 9:00 PM CDT Monday. Please nominate if you are not a Senator. Live Exile 6 will take place at [to be filled in]. I will be back by then.
[b]At Exile 6, everyone will be offered a bribe, live. It could be a very large bribe. I highly recommend everyone comes if you can! I will see you there!"[/b]

Dave, if you could post this on Saturday evening after Imprisonment or Sunday morning-
title: Earn your vote back! (Episode 6) (2)
So far, Cinnamyn earned her vote back by solving word puzzles. Cory earned it back by being the most chatty. And today, one of you will earn your vote back by being the most wordy.
[b]The person who creates the longest case on why someone is a Spy, posted in the Burg, before Monday at 5:00 PM CDT, will earn their vote back.[/b]
Create the longest case to win your vote back!
Rules:
[ul] [li] [b]DO NOT EDIT/MODIFY YOUR SUBMISSION FOR THIS CHALLENGE, FOR ANY REASON. If you do so, that entry is disqualified.[/b]
[/li][li] Posting conversation snippets is good, but don't count toward your word total. Also quoting others is good, but doesn't count toward your word title.
[/li][li] Nonsense spamming of words don't count either. The person with the most words wins the challenge and earns their vote back.
[/li][li] You must post in your submission something like: "This is the post I want to submit to earn my vote back." After you post it, you can create a new longer case if you wish but it must be on a different person. You can't copy/paste your old case and add words.
[/li][li] Must be submitted before the deadline. [/li][/ul]
Good luck!

Ok here's the imprisonment video. Right now I have it at an Owen imprisonment, but I can easily switch it to whoever the spies pick. Let me know if anything is hard to read, if I messed up some animation or spelling errors and stuff. Thanks! This is what I'm going to post after the video is posted: VULNERABLE: [/color]
Hearing the faint sounds of barking, one brave citizen walks over to a nearby grave.
The snap of a twig behind them though catches their attention and they quickly spin around.
But it's too late to stop the hooded figure from knocking them out, and snatching them away.
Oh and don't worry. The spies took your pesky little dog too.
Owen has been Imprisoned by the Spies.
You will never see him again. [/b][/center] Owen : please post Final Words in your confessional immediately.

Including placement of people being safe and which names I used during the story. *Note2 I hope no one notices the Canadian flag in the courtyard lol It's not that noticeable thankfully. *Note3 You can't read it but the grave at the end says Mary on it.

Hey Dave I sent out an e-mail to two possible replacements. I told them that if they don't get that message tonight, to e-mail you at your white fire hotmail address. Then you will give them their passwords. I will e-mail you their passwords tonight if they don't get ahold of me.

Tonisha could you post this on Friday morning:
title: Earn your vote back! (Episode 6)
Five Senators have been crowned, but the people yearn for more representation. They yearn for someone who can represent them - both democratically, and visually!
[b]The person who takes a picture of someone who most looks like a character in this Spies game, before Sunday at 11:00 PM CDT will earn their vote back.[/b]
Rules:
[ul] [li] Take a picture of someone who looks like someone, still in the game or already eliminated, in the Spies game. It can be someone else, or it can be of yourself in a costume (this might be easier!). Three independent judges will take a look at all the photos and pick one winner to earn their vote back.
[/li][li] [b]DO NOT SHOW THE PICTURES TO ANYONE! Please PM them to Judge Sam to submit.[/b]
[/li][li] If you like, you could print out a large picture of a character's face and put it in front of your face to obscure you. Or you might be able to find other ways to obscure your face. If not, that's okay too to not obscure your face, I just won't publicly show the photo.
[/li][li] You can also take a picture of someone else. [size=4]You must take the picture during the challenge. No searching the internet or using old pictures you've already taken.[/size]
[/li][li] Must be submitted before the Sunday 11:00 PM CDT deadline. This task is not mandatory, you don't have to do it, but it could be fun. If not many participate, it could be easy to earn your vote back! :D [/li][/ul]
Good luck!

I think the photo judging would be fun, alas the time difference makes such things difficult. If you are really in need of someone though, then possibly, so long as it can be done when I have a moment, not at a specific time.
