Final votes as I show them:

ardent - KWhit (1360)
stkelly - AE (1305), Sack (1325), cartman (1336), path (1363), Hoops (1380)
Hoops - Penny (1309), Gram (1350), Taz (1390), King (1433), stkelly (1435)
King - SnDvls (1330), Desnudo (1410)

StKelly, if you are Jedi and you die as a result of our tie, I'm sorry that I had to vote for you.

this will make it interesting now

An extension, interesting...

OK, I can still give the information out if we need it, but I would really prefer not to as it makes me an easy target tonight. However, I believe the bodyguard is still out there (have not seen the lightsaber that matches the one seen in Night 2 beating back Sith) so I will do it if the group thinks it makes sense.

I'm not the seer, bodyguard, or duke. I think this one is special to Star Wars, more or less ...

Not a big fan of that extension...kind of kills the strategy of those who waited until the end to swap over to Hoops.

Agreed, Vince. Although I'm not a big fan of being swapped over to in this case :mad: :( :eek:

Wow, an extension.

Looks like I'll be beating some students into the ground in an hour. Anyone want to come over and watch?

So, hoops, what's the deal?

In the interest of fairness I'm willing to sit and wait 30 minutes for Saldana to come back without revealing any more information than I already have. And hope that I don't lose the tie-breaker.

Princess Leia?

George Lucas. A lot of build up, but not a whole lot of bang.

Then allow me to press you a bit.

UNVOTE Stkelly
VOTE HOOPS

I hope you don't mind. I'd rather lynch kelly, but I want to hear more out of you. An extension is an extension, fair or not.

Not exactly :) But pretty funny.

sorry, guys. On the phone. I'm still reading the thread though.

I have to disagree with this. That unbalances the game. What if hoops wasn't around to defend himself? Or if it had swung to somebody else who wasn't around?

It already has.

I mean the game has swung.

OK, if we are using the extension ...

My initial PM (fairly heavy paraphrasing) said that I was strong in the force but didn't give me any special abilities. It didn't sound like generic Jedi, but without any night actions I was playing as an ordinary villager.

This morning I got a PM after Jeeber died indicating that I was deeply saddened by the death of Jeeber but knew that he was not yet gone for me. That, coupled with his death scene (1292), makes me suspect that my role has been activated.

Yes it has, but it went from being a tie vote to a player being in danger of a lynch because of an improper deadline extension. For the deadline to get extended literally at the last minute isn't fair.

If, at the start of the day, an extended deadline had been announced, that would be one thing.

At this point, it's an extension that allows those on the board to swing in one direction or another, but those not around don't have the opportunity to change their vote that everybody else is gaining right now.

Doh! I just realized my unvote of stkelly would possibly put the breaker on hoopsguy, unless someone like Des wants to revote stkelly.

I hope one of you will vote with me.
UNVOTE HOOPS

VOTE STKELLY

Any revelations from stkelly at this point?

If you look at my first post this morning the first paragraph talks about how I was saddened. I think it is the only time I've spoken in "Star Wars speak" the entire game. Post #1304.

I'll buy that. I don't think you would type that in the beginning of the day to save your hide in the end. Possible, but I doubt it.

Des?

stkelly, any particular role to play in this?

Saldana, we still have 5 minutes on your deadline. I'd say either revert to 9:30 or give us the extra time.

If I lose the tie-breaker because AE removed the vote between 8:30 and 9 (CST), and then put it back, thus changing who dies, only to have voting closed 5 minutes ahead of extension, then I will be frustrated. Everything else I'm basically OK with. I don't want to nit-pick at what has been a fun game. And my wife will appreciate having me around in the evenings again ...

Well, FWIW. If AE's latest vote counts, this one should too.

Unvote King
Vote Stkelly

Agreed, if we're closing the window, it should be at 10:00

I'd say just use the original deadline. Nothing really has changed other than hoops reveal, real or not

I predict that I will have a green lightsaber, fwiw.

Mine has been clear the entire game. :)

for the first time in history, the thread is empty of everyone but a dead player and an observer when the day action resolves......goddamn i screwed that pooch hard.

I'm here

Did you at least give him a reacharound? ;)

:(

What does that mean? It also doesn't say he was a Jedi.

dola,

Poor stkelly. :(

I guess he died as he lived: heart in the right place, but just too aggressive. :(

Yes it does.

I think we all left so you could post actions. people are coming back now.

I don't fault you for your change/re-change. you made a quick decision, but I feel corrected it...

now it looks like I too have been mind swapted just like Ardent.
I had a similar experience too. all I remember is a hooded person and me saying I didn't want to vote King I wanted to vote StKelly....hmmm

Glad to be around, although I was pretty sure that Stkelly was Jedi. I hate self-preservation votes.

Still believe the bodyguard is out there and hope he is around to protect me tonight. I rarely ask for this, but after the forced reveal I think that I'm a pretty likely target.

I think SnDvls' forced vote goes a long, long way towards backing Ardent's story.

If the bodyguard is still in the game and in the mood to take advice, if it isn't me you are guarding then it should be Ardent.

That doesn't say he was a Jedi. It says he wasn't a Sith.

Seems to be implying he wasn't. He didn't call upon anger and hatred. Only desperation (although I would argue that desperation = fear of a kind, and fear is another path to the Dark Side).

But it does look like saldana meant to imply he was a Jedi.

Correction: that first sentence should have read "seems to be implying he was."

It doesn't look good for SnDvls tomorrow. I think he is being sacrificed by the DM for the mistake.

To me, that means that there are more than two Siths out there.

It doesn't sound like he's evil by any stretch. Especially compared to Dubb's death. What I mainly was wondering is if he wasn't someone aligned with the Jedi, but not a Jedi. The mention that his saber skills weren't equal to yours sort of implies that as well.
