Well that was a little embarrassing, Erik is up next on my lists:
1). Suggested that we follow known dips last week, something that was old news posted 7 weeks in raised my eyebrow(s).
2). Votes are somewhat odd some weeks
3). Not a whole lot of evidence, my gut is tickled still though

New rule:
Random events to keep people interested and checking the forums. For example: The conductor has gotten the clap, what antibiotic is best for treating it? The first person to answer gets an extra vote, or cancels someone's vote out or immunity if it's something harder...just something to give people extra motivation to check the forums on a nightly basis. Immunity challenge and voting systems remain the same though.

Conductor Evan has many claps, at least from me *applause track* |

I count about 65 points for the dip team. Deviant, True, Tulley get an extra vote this week. Stinky Pete, Sarah, and Peppperettte get to cancel out someone's vote.l
Thanks for playing, I hope this was fun!

Sorry I couldn't do any selfies yesterday, it was super hectic. Maybe I can post one today for funzies.. but probably only the spy one, not sure there are any train tracks in century city.

Um Deviant suggests me? I have been asking to vote with all dips and was ditched because everyone else got crazy and voted for Fatty. I am happy to waste our time and vote to poly me...but gotta be honest...we are running out of time. Brad was who I thought we dips were voting for but you tell me who and I am on board.
Sorry I haven't had the time I have had in the past to check the boards...but that's all it is...less time then usual. I will follow known dips vote...Tulley and Sarah will call it and that's who I vote for. That sounds pretty diplomatic to me...but maybe you don't know what that's about, deviant? Hmmm? Perhaps you have just exposed yourself?

This game was rigged. It was mathematically impossible for us to compete, so why bother. Spies get a three man team. Diplomats could have a six man team. All things being equal, we could only score half as many points as them. All the teams should have been restricted to three players. I'm filing a grievance with the League of Calamitous Intent.

Maybe we shouldn't be so hard on Erik. Maybe he wasn't able to check the boards so much because he was trapped... in... a... giant... ellipsis...

I would feel more sympathy if you guys even attempted to compete. I waited to see if you people were competent enough to put something together. It was eventually clear that it was futile. I think you ended up with 65 points. I doubt it even possible for our team to generate 65 points. 15 points for questions 1-3, plus 4x12 for the remaining questions (assuming that Mike would have actually tried to help us). That's 63. There was an extra 14 points on the table for "best submissions". I don't know if Evan assigned those points in his calculation, but we would have needed all 4 members to answer all of the questions, and we would have needed to win the majority of subjective points in order to win, and you guys still had plenty of points on the table. |

Yeah 6 was a little too much wasn't it? I should've done 3 or 4 (like I did when we first did this game back in Mildville 1, duh). Always humbling to tinker with the rules and make the puzzle worse.

A lot of the results were posted tuesday after 6pm. When exactly were you waiting to figure this out? You were going to come in at 11pm and post all of your answers? This sounds like post-hoc bitching when you never planned on doing anything in the first place.

Probably what you could've done was set a threshold for the spies to beat so that they could win a consolation prize |

This sounds like post-hoc bitching when you never planned on doing anything in the first place. I started at 9pm, actually. It's not exactly the S.A.T.'s. It took less than five minutes to take a picture of myself with a coat and cup in front of a picture of Reagan and the periodic table. That took care of 3 questions right there. This was my favorite post, and I was planning on picking Tulley for least likely spy, and most likely spy! Twin Peaks was my Mildville TV show, and Clue was my streaming Netflix movie. I was about to write a Sarah eulogy when I realized I should see if there was even any point to playing, which there wasn't. Is that good? Do I get Tulley's sympathy now, or do I need to post my time card. Not that that has any relevance whatsoever to the fact that the game was rigged in your favor. Whether we spent 10 minutes or 10 hours on it, we were only capable of scoring half as many points, which made the endeavour pointless. |

So your plan was to come in at 9pm, do your answers, then round up your troops and have them all post? Dubious.
