Werewolf VII- Return to XCom - Page 21

Mr. Wednesday · 07-29-2005, 06:42 PM

My main fear is that if I'm wrong about Qwikshot being the one who was converted, then we're basically going to have nothing to go on. If it's anyone else, they've done a masterful job of playing along with the crowd.

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 06:42 PM

And I think RA will kill me when he goes down, just for spite. Can I wear a protective suit when we blast him?

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 06:43 PM

I don't know either. But, this is the first time that Neon Chaos has been dead, too.

It would be a bad feeling if we kill RA today and tonight there is an apparent conversion.

hoopsguy · 07-29-2005, 06:43 PM

I wish I had possessed that power, Fouts.

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 06:47 PM

It feels like we'd be taking a chance killing Qwikshot, but three things:

1.) He has definitely been acting/voting erratically since the conversion.
2.) He does not appear to be using his role any longer (didn't assume the guard role and will not advise on what he saw in kingfc22's room).
3.) Until pushed, RA voted for himself rather than voting for Qwikshot, even though voting for Qwikshot would save him.

Vince · 07-29-2005, 06:47 PM

Ok, well I've got one last shot (what is it with me and being unable to leave for work at the right time? Sheesh). Right now, I see it as such --

1) JeeberD voted Raiders Army (1) because "Vince's post gives more than enough evidence that damns RA."

2) Vince voted Raiders Army (2) (I talk to much, so I'm paraphrasing) because "Qwik couldn't be proven yet, and RA had a lot of evidence against him."

3) Fouts voted Raiders Army (3) because "It is obvious to me that RA was working with Neon, Blade, and Hoops. Whether he was doing so against his will, I don't know. He never indicated that to me. When I came out with my information and was the #1 target for the aliens, he went full force at me. That was his chance to save himself."

4) Mr. Wednesday voted Qwikshot (1) because "I'm pretty settled on this. I'm going to take a shot at going for the last conversion and give Raiders Army a chance to be cured."

5) Vince unvoted Raiders Army (2) and voted Qwikshot (2) because "You know...irrespective of what else has happened, I'm quite sure RA does NOT have the ability to convert people. On top of that, we might be able to save him.

The theory Mr. W thought up about a convert being able to convert more later holds water, so I'm going to switch my vote."

6) Raiders Army voted for Raiders Army (3) because " Like I have a shot at this point...might as well go with the majority."

7) Raiders Army unvoted Raiders Army (2) and voted Qwikshot (3) because " Fuck you guys and your paranoia...I'm just ready to leave the game at this point."

Out of game - I'm sorry if you guys are offended that I played my role the way I did. It is all part of the game.

Inside the game - I can see why you guys would kill me, even though it isn't a good strategic move.

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 06:50 PM

We cannot save Raiders Army. He is an alien.

I was just trying to see if he would vote for Qwikshot.

Vince · 07-29-2005, 06:50 PM

Like Swaggs said, RA's first vote today was huge. The voting was currently tied at 2-2 between Raiders Army and Qwikshot. A vote for Qwikshot would have gotten him off the hook. Instead, he voted for himself, thereby putting himself in the lead. If this isn't damning evidence that Qwikshot is more important to the aliens' cause than RA is, I don't know what is.

hoopsguy · 07-29-2005, 06:51 PM

Out of the game - can't comment on it quite yet, but will later.

But there are no out of game hard feelings. Just playing around.

Mr. Wednesday · 07-29-2005, 06:51 PM

Basically, my viewpoint is that Raiders Army is more or less a known quantity -- that is, we don't know for sure if we can leave him alive, but we know who's side he's playing right now and we have a pretty good idea that he's not one of the ones that can convert people. We know that another conversion happened and we haven't nailed that person yet. I consider the other conversion a greater threat than Raiders Army, so I am making the other conversion a higher priority.

Plus, Digamma thought there might be a chance of saving RA, so that's another reason for me to consider leaving him to deal with later.

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 06:52 PM

I'm going to take a risk here. This should make things 4 votes for QS and 2 votes for RA. If Raiders Army wants to tie it up, Qwikshot can either come in at the last moment and vote for himself or Raiders Army to tie things up or someone else can switch.

I vote Qwikshot

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 06:54 PM

Glad to hear that. I don't want to piss people off. I would've waited till later, but CW was very important.

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 06:54 PM

Again, I have no knowledge that Raiders Army can be saved.

I believe Digamma took my cue and was playing along. If he knew that it was possible to save RA, he did not tell me.

Vince · 07-29-2005, 06:54 PM

What I worry about is this -- right now it's Qwikshot 3, Raiders Army 2. I seem to think it's in our best interests to off Qwikshot first. We're waiting on two votes -- Qwikshot and Swaggs.

Swaggs is probably going to vote Qwikshot -- 4 to 2.

However, Qwikshot will more than likely vote for Raiders Army -- 4 to 3.

At which point Raiders Army can switch his vote to himself -- 3 to 4.

Raiders Army dies, takes one of us out (Swaggs, I'd guess), then Qwikshot converts one of the four of us left, and it's 3 on 2.

I would be very much happier if we could get JeeberD to switch over to Qwikshot right now.

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 06:56 PM

If Qwikshot is going to drop in, he is pushing it.

Raiders Army · 07-29-2005, 06:58 PM

unvote Qwikshot
Vote Raiders Army

Vince · 07-29-2005, 06:58 PM

Well, crap. Now we wait until Jeeber or Qwik get here. What're the odds that Jeebers in mid-shift?

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 06:58 PM

Why do we want a tie?

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 06:59 PM

Fouts...switch up to Qwikshot!

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 06:59 PM

Unvote Raiders Army

Vote Qwikshot

SirFozzie · 07-29-2005, 06:59 PM

Deadline.

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 07:00 PM

I hope we're right.

Vince · 07-29-2005, 07:00 PM

We don't -- Raiders Army and Qwikshot do. If Qwikshot doesn't die today, we lose someone since RA can kill someone else.

Plus, we think that Qwik can convert someone.

Vince · 07-29-2005, 07:00 PM

Woo...slipping that one in there at the last second Fouts.

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 07:00 PM

Dramatic conclusion.

I hope we played it well.

Vince · 07-29-2005, 07:00 PM

Well played

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 07:01 PM

I didn't want to do it, because I'm not sure if he is a convert. He is highly suspected, but we're rolling the dice.

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 07:02 PM

We are taking a big chance here.

SirFozzie · 07-29-2005, 07:02 PM

Vince -- QS
Mr. Wednesday -- QS
Fouts -- QS
Qwikshot --
Raiders Army -- RA
JeeberD -- RA
Swaggs --QS

Qwikshot sighs softly, as the Sonic Cannon tracks him. "Guess this is what I get for breaking into places I don't belong."

He tries to make a break for it, but the computer is apparently tired of missing on the first shot, and makes sure to wait till it has a clean shot..

The headshot basically explodes Qwikshot's head, but the creature inside that leaps out runs right at Fouts.

10 steps away.

5 steps..

Fouts falls back in nervous fear...

Raiders Army · 07-29-2005, 07:03 PM

Nicely done

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 07:03 PM

Crikey, why me?

Vince · 07-29-2005, 07:03 PM

Come on Fouts, get away...

SirFozzie · 07-29-2005, 07:04 PM

And the Sonic Cannon catches the creature in mid leap on Fouts and blasts it clear across the room.

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 07:04 PM

I was just thinking, what if the jack of all trades could assume the converter role?

Raiders Army · 07-29-2005, 07:04 PM

Sorry Qwik.

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 07:04 PM

and...

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 07:04 PM

Whew! Die bad guys, DIE!

SirFozzie · 07-29-2005, 07:06 PM

What's left of the creature inside of Qwikshot is slumped against the wall, talons and tentacles still outstretched from its leap at Fouts.

You look at each other. Could it be that your mission is nearly over?

Swaggs · 07-29-2005, 07:06 PM

I suspect this will either be Fouts' or my last night here.

Vince · 07-29-2005, 07:07 PM

Well done gentlemen!

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 07:07 PM

RA, who you gonna kill?

Raiders Army · 07-29-2005, 07:08 PM

Maybe myself to put me out of my misery.

Raiders Army · 07-29-2005, 07:09 PM

This game was sooooo stacked.

SirFozzie · 07-29-2005, 07:09 PM

There's only a couple Night Actions left, so since everyone left is still here.. if folks tell me quickly (I hurt and want to sleep) what they want to do in the Night Action, I will open Day 7.

Fouts · 07-29-2005, 07:10 PM

Maybe somebody has an antidote to save RA from his alien blood?

Raiders Army · 07-29-2005, 07:11 PM

Sorry, Qwik, I was playing CoH at the same time...Bad-Example was with me as a witness.

SirFozzie · 07-29-2005, 07:13 PM

The Computer Speaks:

If All known ecto-plasmic sources have been identified, X-Com Computer can be instructed to open base doors and remove lockdown status. Since there is still risk of alien activity, vote requires a 2/3'ds majority. Please indicate before morning publically if you wish to remove lockdown status

Raiders Army · 07-29-2005, 07:13 PM
