LXXVII Spawn III: Game Over (See Post 4507) - Page 43

Tyrith · 07-10-2008, 01:07 PM

Plus if we're training a second doctor and hoops is bad and shreds path, we have a spare doctor....

...who we could never clear. Which would give us a world of new problems.

hoopsguy · 07-10-2008, 01:07 PM

Order submitted.

Still waiting for Telle's explanation. Still think it is a mistake to send her out until we have the explanation.

KWhit · 07-10-2008, 01:08 PM

Yes, Saldana, do the mission with 4 slaves - mining.

Yes Saldana, please go out with 4 slaves on a planned mining mission (using one of kwhit's planned missions from today)

Could one of them be the spawn that does not get exhausted?

I don't. I think you both have pressure on yourselves to perform the mission to the best of your abilities today.

Do we know what any of these guys did last night (I easily could have missed something)

I know Marc asked about night orders and I suggested he go somewhere to hang out since there were likely no beds left by that time. With only 5 there were going to be some folks going without.

Where's the plus 100 button?

And also:

Quote:

Exhaustion can be healed after one night of undisturbed rest. Undisturbed rest is defined as not taking an action. Spawn who attack have a small chance of becoming exhausted (which is increased any time there is a Spawnling attack, especially for those who performed the attack).

So a spawn may do something and not become exhausted.

I allowed such statements in the first game, but after that. There are plenty of ways, as hoops has shown, to have statements that make sense with-in game play and are also useful empath scans short of say "I am not a spawn."

I think this is a good point. I think path should steer clear of scanning someone we actually think is Spawn. If we lose him now, with the duplicant seemingly used, we'd be fubar'd as far as adding to the CoT (well, I guess we could wrangle up a THIRD doc, but you get my point).

I think if Schmidty's scan on RendeR comes back clean I'm voting hoops. At least I'm leaning that way if that is the only new scan information.

I agree with this. I'd rather the empath find one of my comments to scan which should suffice for now. Then I can decide whether or not to scan hoops or not after the mission.

I thought the controversy in the first game was something like if the empath said "Hoops is not spawn", and then tested that statement. In other words was testing the truth of something that the speaker himself didn't know.

But no matter. The way we're playing it in this game is just fine and works for me.

Barkeep49 · 07-10-2008, 01:16 PM

Kwhit spends time in his office figuring out two good places to mine for Crystillium

saldana, being quite careful with the security measure on the Slave Pen takes 4 slaves with him on a mining away mission.

Just caught up. Which scientist did you take?

I posted in thread that I would forgo sleep because I was not already exhausted or wounded and thus there were others needing beds. So it appears that I wandered the ship a bit to kill time overnight.

hoopsguy · 07-10-2008, 01:19 PM

My initial order was "I'll go on the mission". I'm putting in the scientist now.

I'll take LSG + 3 slaves - mine Crys.

I'm perplexed by your actions while you were wandering the ship. You appeared to be concentrating at different points ... that doesn't sound like "killing time" to me.

KWhit · 07-10-2008, 01:21 PM

The following people are exhausted today with no clear explanation above from BK:

Hoops - Claims he followed Telle (unverified)
Telle - Just wondered around (no bed)
mccollins - no bed to sleep in
bulletsponge
Marc Vaughn - just farted around (unclear order sent to BK)

Maybe what you took to be "concentrating" was me nodding off

It is awesome how many people are constructing scenarios to vote for me so far today.

Maybe, or maybe not.

VOTE TELLE

Barkeep49 · 07-10-2008, 01:22 PM

As the crew waits for the first away mission to finish, hoopsguy take a team out, accompanied by LSG and 3 slaves to also mine Crystillium.

jeheinz72 · 07-10-2008, 01:23 PM

Man I wish Schmidty was around so I could just drop down this vote.

hoopsguy · 07-10-2008, 01:24 PM

For the record, most of the night Telle was wandering around the ship, but at one point she stopped, at another point she seemed to be looking for something, and was definitely concentrating at other points.

This doesn't sound like hunting for a bed or wandering aimlessly to me. It sounds like a vague PM of someone performing a night action.

So, want to try another explanation?

KWhit · 07-10-2008, 01:24 PM

Question on infection.

If Telle gets infected on her mission today, she's Spawnling, and curable, yes?

If she got infected yesterday is she Spawn or Spawnling?

I presume if she got infected on the first one, she's Spawn already.

hoopsguy · 07-10-2008, 01:25 PM

Yep, right after getting a BS explanation.

Tyrith · 07-10-2008, 01:26 PM

Yeah, because that's when Telle responded and responded very vaguely...to be honest I'm about half a thought from following his vote right now, as it already squares with my default course of action for the day anyway.

That seriously makes no sense to me. I know I wasn't hunting for a bed because I specifically told Barkeep that I would stay up so that others could rest. I did ask to hang out in the engine room because I thought others would be there who could then verify, but I wasn't sure if I could actually request where I spend the night. So it seems that instead I just roamed the halls.

There is a huge smile on saldana's as he leads back his motley crew. He knows that unlike last time that this time they did a good job, no they did an excellent job, very few teams could have done better. They worked hard, they worked efficiently... and yet... and yet there was still not a ton of Crystillium to be had. Still 33 more units are added to the Cargo Hold.

I still think no lynch is the best bet.. but if I am going to vote, I'll wait till after I see the results of the away teams

KWhit · 07-10-2008, 01:28 PM

I think I'd like to see how Hoops and Telle perform on their away missions before I make any decision.

I suggest you both try your hardest to succeed in your missions today.

For the middle one, when would she have gone from Spawnling to Spawn, first thing this morning?

I guess what I'm saying is, working backwards if she acted Spawny last night, is it from her first mission or either the 1st or 2nd.

Yay, Saldana.

That seems really good with a bunch of stiffs and no scientist.

hoopsguy · 07-10-2008, 01:29 PM

Jumping in a meeting now. Will answer questions when I get back.

But Telle's account of her actions does not compute with the PM I got. If others want to try and create some middle ground, go for it.

Telle · 07-10-2008, 01:29 PM

Btw, who got the planned missions? They have a better success chance than unplanned.

jeheinz72 · 07-10-2008, 01:29 PM

It would have to be from her 1st (or she was a spawn from the start).

You and Hoops and saldana should all have planned missions. Just to be safe make sure to request to lead a planned away mining mission even though I am not sure that is necessary.
