Two non-voters – punmanblower and Grey – have been mod-killed. No points for those guys. There were three votes each for kg2005 and for mbnovak. However, all the kg votes came in first, so he has been assassinated.
The three people available for voting, since they voted for kg, are:
Beau
mbnovak
uberminz
So, only they can receive votes by the next 9pm deadline.
Here’s a list of who’s left, and their voting target:
AMR (mbnovak)
Beau (kg2005)
bhiggum (daneekasghost)
daneekasghost (uberminz)
Dread Pirate (Beau)
freealonzo (AMR)
Geoff (punmanbowler)
greekhouse (todahshy)
mbnovak (kg2005)
MelissaD (Geoff)
nibbish (mbnovak)
Rhubarb_Runner (bhiggum)
todahshy (punmanbowler)
uberminz (kg2005)
kg2005 (mbnovak)
Have fun out there, Romers. And comment more. Votes due Sunday night at 9pm Central.
Cutthroat Junction 
If you ask me, Novak seems the obvious next step. Why stop a good trend?
Wouldn’t the trend be to split the votes and have me barely squeak by? I’m cool with that trend.
My vote for Gilman is already in.
Also, Nibbish, AMR, and Free are bad people.
Why am I bad? I didn’t vote for you.
Voting for me is just as bad, I guess.
Because I’m a fool who just assumed you’d voted for me, that’s why.
I only see two votes for Novak. Also: is there a Gdoc?
kg voted for Novak.
There’s too much killing!! Can’t we all just get along?!
There’s half as much killing here as there is in Werewolf. Progress!
Says the muppet that voted for me. I’m watching you, mister 🙂
If we all agree to off Novak, then we’ll basically be in the same spot as we were yesterday, but with 2 fewer people. I’m sure somebody will try to “cheat” and vote elsewhere, but we can all agree that such a person will be black marked and be eliminated at the next possible moment.
We want to be in the same spot we were yesterday (but with 4 fewer people)?
Well, 2 fewer, but I think that’s a good result for everybody that’s not novak!
Ok, I was wondering if that strategy was the best one. Makes sense to keep the largest possible pool of assassination candidates going forward, I guess.
It would be four fewer, greek. Grey and pun were mod-killed.
OIC. I didn’t pay attention.
But it’s also a good result for everyone who cheats. And wouldn’t it be better to vote for Gilman, since he’s less of an obvious target anyway, and that way you’ll still have me as an obvious target for when things get down there a ways?
I mean, et tu, Greek?
Are people still doing shit offsite? If so, I’ll probably end up instituting a “mod kill for anyone who has an email forwarded to me” rule.
Heh, I wish I had an email to forward to you. But I don’t.
I’m only in on this since everybody else seems to want you dead. It just seems like a good way for all of us to come to an easy consensus and get some points. If people aren’t on board with this plan, I’m putting my vote elsewhere.
Wait. So are we saying we’re all voting for Novak to get points and re-open the pool? Is this serious? Because I don’t want to be blacklisted for having voted someone else, stopped paying attention the rest of the evening, then come back and find out I was supposed to be following another plan if I “know what’s good for me”.
It seems like a solid enough plan to me. If you have better ideas about what we should do, I’d be happy to hear them. If you vote someone else out because you don’t want to be on the chopping block tomorrow, you risk making some enemies.
So vote with her, instead of putting her on the (eventual) chopping block.
You know what would be kinda cool? Hidden opportunities to get points. Kinda like immunity idols, but in this case, you just get extra points towards your overall game (not towards Rome in specific).
Maybe I’m just hoping for the opportunity to email Spooky EIGHTEEN times so I can win something.
There will be other opportunities for points. Hidden points? That’s actually a pretty good idea. The key will never, ever be to beg for them, though.
Please?
Pretty please?
Cherry on top?
Well, that’s eight votes for Melissa. On to day three!
Greek. I think your plan makes a lot of sense.
Agreed
So then it’s agreed. Everybody who doesn’t vote novak is out of the magician’s alliance.
I don’t agree to this.
And if I get out of this round alive, I promise I’ll tell you how I did it.
Clearly Melissa also doesn’t agree to Greek’s plan. So Greek’s just setting her up for failure here.
And you have my announced vote for Gilman. So…
Greek –
Given how many people voted away from myself and KG on Day 1, and how few people have agreed to your plan here… I don’t know that you’ll have the wherewithal to put people on the chopping block.
Maybe people don’t need to incessantly talk about it their vote like you do.
Not too much talk about anybody else, either. Given there are only three options, there’s not a lot else that can happen.
Understood. But two of those options are not-me!
If I posted a public key here and then had people send me messages via public key cryptography, would that be a violation of the rules?
Very much so. Keep it here.
But the Romans were known for their use of ciphers!
In honor of being Greek, you could just create a “Riddle of the Sphinx” to get your apparently secret plan through to the people.
Some important notes:
#1 – I sent my vote in before the cabal made decisions and threats.
#2 – I have not sent an outside email to anyone.
#3 – Those of you (yes plural) who have sent me an email are safe – nothing will be forwarded to Kelly.
You still have an hour. From what I understand, you can change your vote up until then.
No, you can’t. You must revert to original votes. Also “oops, I wasn’t around that last hour” is a totally legit excuse.
Greek’s just trying to line up future victims.
Greek’s lining up future victims, but I feel like Geoff is, too. That #3 up there is so heavy handed. There’s no way to prove that he’s actually receiving emails from anybody. He could purposely be sewing suspicion. And if people ARE sending him things, he can’t prove it without becoming a snitch, which people probably wouldn’t like either. You know, gotta abide by the Rome Code.
Well, shit. If we’re reverting to original votes, then yeah, guys…what Geoff said.
I mentioned in some email that I’d allow voting changes a la Survivor.
