East Wing - T Minus 5

[RaveBomb]

A fierce debate broke out as the room occupants went through several rounds of debates as to what would make a Good Leader.

In the end Rekard and Snake stood at the podium locked in a vicious battle of wills.

"Hey Rekard!, INSULT", opens Snake.
"Retort", came the calm reply. .
Looking smug, Snake continued, "Counter!-retort!"

Rekard frowned, "Questioning of sexual preference."
The crowd gasped and looked over at Snake.
"Suggestion to shut the fuck up.:
Like ferrets watching ping pong, the crowd looked to rekard.
Rekard leaned back and said, "Notation that you create a vacuum"

Snake chuffed. "riposte addon riposte."
"Counter-riposte", came the response.
Speaking slowly, as if to a child, Snake leaned towards Rekard and delivered "Counter-counter riposte."
Everyone could feel that Rekard was out of responses as he swapped to a desperate gambit:

"Nonsensical statement involving plankton", a pause then, "Words of praise for fish food."

To which Snake bowed saying "Acknowledgment and acceptance of terms."

Snake stepped forward and keyed the intercom. "QUERY?"

"No. This is Central. " interrupted the intercom. "Now, listen carefully, we don't have a lot of time. You need to pick FOUR people to evacuate. I think we can get that many out undetected."
From the background came the faint words "we hope" followed by a smack before the intercom clicked off.

There is a TV mounted in the corner. Do you want to turn it on to RNN or Foxy News?

Vote history:

Doesn't really matter,but here are the ending votes.

snake - snake, ozy , dfer
rekard - rekard, blindsniper, admetus
admetus - sphendont

[rekard]

Oh yeah. Foxy News. Dibs on the remote!

[Admetus]

Foxy News, of course. Nobody watches RNN.

[Snake]

So I can send 4 people over. Now? Or... what is the timing mechanic of this?

[RaveBomb]

Trade happens at the end of day. Take the day to debate, PM, form and break alliances, abuse the Ambassador... or whatever.

[Snake]

Got it.



Trade requests to me. The pettier the better.

[rekard]

Hey Omega. Can you tell the other room that they can suck it? ?

Signed, the Awesomeast Wing.

[Omega]

Sure.

[rekard]

Hey Rave. Since the day 0 forum disappeared, can you post the Ambassador role description in the rules please?

[Omega]

In the future though, just to make sure I don't miss it, send me a PM with the message. the rest of the week I'll likely only be able to skim the day threads.

[Omega]

This was sent from the other room. Not necessarily as a response.

[rekard]

Of course. I was just making a stand against the other wing.

I shall propose Admetus as the new leader against the Reptilian tyranny.

Tell them Snake ate the platypus for breakfast.

[RaveBomb]

Hey Rave. Since the day 0 forum disappeared, can you post the Ambassador role description in the rules please?

Done.

[Snake]

Reptilian tyranny.

That's not really what I said but you can have no say in it if you prefer.

[Admetus]

This was sent from the other room. Not necessarily as a response.

(Will copy to PM.)


Ask him if this is his platypus.

[Omega]

I received another note for you.

East Wing, send us over your Reds or the VIP Gets it.

-Perry the Platypus

[Ozymandias]

Who else is online?

[Admetus]

I check every once in a while. Usually when it gets this late it's also you and Hellheart.

-edit-
In the spirit of the game I'll un-hide.

[Snake]

Mornings are so lonesome.

[Aldax]

Who else is online?

I'm always online, Dave

[RaveBomb]

Holy carp. Do you hear that? There is a storm a STORM of whispering over there in the corner. I wonder what they're talking about?

(EDIT: Date filter is borked... that's JUST from midnight. Who knows what was sent yesterday?)

Hmm... I don't seem to have the auto-export on this working right... the subject lines seem to have come unglued. More tweaking is required.

Quote of the day:

I'm going offline for the night, before incur the wrath of RaveBomb's inbox.

[dferrantino]

So, why are we trying to share information?

I will be ignoring all private conversation for the first few days of this game. sphenodont and Snake, if you want to talk we'll do it in public.

[Snake]

Well you want to talk to me because I am the room leader and the most team swaps happens today. So if you want to stay or get on a janitor's trolly down the hall you need to tell me.

[sphenodont]

I was just trying to be polite.

After tonight, there is a good chance that some of us will be separated, never to see each other again. I thought it would be good to get to know my companions here, before it was too late. Clearly, those of us here in the East Wing are of far superior taste and sensibility than those commoners hobnobbing in the West Wing.

[Admetus]

Subject: I hate you all.

Maybe PMs need rethought in this game? Is too much of the communication taking place in private?

I thought I'd throw my two cents in here, so I can mention the PM summary. Also to give us something to chat about.

It looks like your summary is including clarification questions to the GM, but even still, it's surprising to see I got up near the message leaders in chattyness.

The original game has a timer on rounds, because they didn't want endless discussions. In order to keep that bit of flavor, you probably want a message limit. Otherwise, the chattier players will get endless discussions, and the people with less time available will be at a disadvantage.

[Ozymandias]

Okay, let's see just how public you want to play this.

dferrantino, I am willing to publicly SHARE my team (but not my role) with you.

I am also on the Red team.

[rekard]

You guys were too fast.

I wanted to post this:

[Snake]

WeKnowMemes

[RaveBomb]

You're just doing this to make me check my inbox, right?

[Ozymandias]

I personally know that Snake is not on the Red Team, so obviously I don't want him to be Room Leader.

dferrantino, please join me in usurping Snake by voting for sphenodont as Room Leader.

[Snake]

sphenodont sounds great.

[Ozymandias]

sphenodont sounds great.

Rave, does this count as an Abdication?

Is sphenodont now the new Room Leader (assuming he wants the job)?

[RaveBomb]

I'm reading that as a vote.

Snake, if you're abdicating, please be clear.

[rekard]

Hmmm the colors are beginning to show. Uncomfortable.

[Snake]

I will take a mulligan if that's the case. I was under the impression it was by the end of the day.

[sphenodont]

sphenodont sounds great.

Of course he does! Huzzah sphenodont!

(Why are we cheering him on, any way?)

[dferrantino]

You didn't hear? sphenodont's uncle was a Nigerian prince!

[Admetus]

I will take a mulligan if that's the case. I was under the impression it was by the end of the day.

There isn't any vote required at all, right RaveBomb? We don't have to change leaders, instead it's on the usurper's group to get 51% (which is 5 people)?

[rekard]

Why should I support the Sphen?

[Snake]

Why should I support the Sphen?

[Blindsniper83]

did i hear trolly ride. does it go to platform 9 3/4, or just down the hall?

[Snake]

You can pile it into a pillar if you want.

[Blindsniper83]

and seeing as we are colour revealing, im green, wait red, colorblindness sucks, even more so added to full on blindness

[Ozymandias]

and seeing as we are colour revealing, im green, wait red, colorblindness sucks, even more so added to full on blindness

Blind please vote for spheno to usurp.

[rekard]

Let's try sphenodont
