Looking at our list of 22 (!!!) people and the 5 beds:
4 will be in the brig (Alan, KWhit, RendeR, Path) 5 Engineers will be working (Tyrith, PurdueBrad, Danny, Heinz, Clap) 6 Security personnel will be patrolling (I think) (Hoops, olie, Pass, Mr & Mrs Schmidty, Saldana) That leaves 7 for the 5 beds: Ensign Chubby (wounded), Trainer mccollins, Medics Jackal & bulletsponge, Scientists LSG & PF, and soon-to-be-Doctor Marc Vaughn. FWIW. |

I'm unsure also. PS - Got a reply to my question about empath queries, they DONT follow programming logic. Hence: true + false + unknown = unknown true + false = unknown Not false like it would for a programming statement (meaning I'm afraid that my scan on Chubby was worthless because it could easily be his lack of knowledge about him being an 'unknown spawn' cause the failure - sorry chaps wish I'd known that before I did the scan. |

Regular (or programming) logic might go into effect if 'and' and/or 'or' is in the statement, but Chubby used none in the statement that was empathed. |

Just to make sure I'm following along with the plan - what are we mining tomorrow before takeoff? Doesn't any more Crys at this point mean we are dumping water? Given that we have a pretty full ship, I'm not sure that I want to lose water. Barkeep, can we go on a water mission tomorrow and drink it that same day rather than storing it? |

My question would be if we can go on a crys mission, keep like 5 more and dump the rest -- I'd just like a little more buffer in case of leakage, but we do need water. |

Well, it's a risk-reward I'm willing to take which I guess is what counts. I think I've achieved what I wanted to so far in this game -- I've gotten the brig full of people we can trust and who are in leadership positions. That was goal one, and hopefully we can get off the ground tomorrow that way. At that point, my focus has to be finding spawn.......I've never seen this as a role that lives through the game.

Just running some numbers - we dumped 18 water units to store crys today (64 down to 46) and we'll use 22 water units at the morning deadline (46 down to 24). I think we've all agreed that Saldana and the slaves will go get us some more crys (I'm not sure if we can say how much we want to keep) and as long as they don't bring back more than 22 crys, we won't have to throw out any more water (with 24 we'll be very close to exactly one day's worth of water).
In addition the water plant can be fully fixed during Day 4. That would give us around a day of water in the cargo hold and a working water plant. The decision is then the risk/reward of sending another crew out who might possibly get infected. |

Awesome job guys! I am not surprised at all, I read her play as exactly the same as in the last game where she was a wolf.
I think we should look really hard at Bulletsponge today. His bandwagon jumping seemed a desperate attempt to get votes on someone other than Telle. He didn't care whether it was MV or Chubby, he just wanted votes on someone. That only makes sense if he knew Telle was also a spawn. |

And extra props to Hoops and Schmidty. Schmidty for scanning Render so hoopsguy could shift his attention to Telle and Hoopsguy for obvious reasons.

I wouldn't be surprised if there is no kill again today as the spawn will likely try and replace the loss of Telle with a new convert.

Yeah, I'm trying to fight my urges to go spy on potential spawn vs. guarding a room vs guarding someone I think is a pretty natural target.
So three choices on the board, all kind of appealing in their own way. |

So, anyone want to construct scenarios where someone was trying to "save" Telle yesterday up until late afternoon? The votes kind of came in a rush for her, but for a very long time I was the only one with a vote on her.
Tyrith was 2nd man in - I believe at a point where I still wasn't cleared by Path although I would have to go look up posts to verify that. So I have that as a check in the good column for him. The remaining ten players after that get less good will just because I think that Spawn might be able to see writing on the wall and were willing to lose a vanilla member of their team. |

One more note - given that I won't be around much today I'll have to vote early. Saldana, it might end up being you on account of the four away missions (working on assumption you are being sent today) if something isn't turned up from night actions. Even though I've had some trust from you since you were sleeping on N1 and have done what you are supposed to do with your role.

I will be in and out, checking in on things. Probably more in the afternoon because I have to stay late today (well, later than normal Fridays...boo!) I will be around for the night actions
'Grats again, all, on nabbing us a spawn. Now we NEED to get out off this rock before they convert anymore!

No, not at all. (keep in mind I'm still catching up from where you posted this) Hoops was scanned as good, hence the red-faced unvote. That really leaves 2 options. Enter the Chubby/MV debate or vote Telle. Since I don't have any sort of confidence in any claim Chubby/MV make (could be 2 empaths plus who is lying?) I voted Telle. Safe play. |

Before much news can be disseminated about who was where last night, disturbing news comes in. News of a body. The crew rushes to investigate and finds the body of mmccollins – a survivor- sprawled across the floor of a sleep quarter, devoid of life. That grim news ushers people to breakfast where they talk about last. Of how hoops guarded the water plant, just like olie, Mrs. Schmidty & pass guarded the Security HQ, and saldana guarded the slave pens. There was plenty of work from the Engineer staff as well as clap worked on the water plant and Tyrith, Danny, Pudue, and jeheinz slaved away to make sure the engines could be ready for lift-off. Lift-off. You’ve only spent 3 days on this hell of a planet and you can’t wait to leave it. With only two dead things are in better shape than you could have hoped. It looks like the humans really have a chance of saving interstellar space after all.
Room Reports Engine Room – Operational (Undamaged) Water Plant – Damaged (Non Operational) 5 cycles to repair Cargo Hold - Operational (Undamaged) (Maximum Capacity: 125 units) Water Supply – 23 units (Enough reserves for for just barely over 1 day at current consumption) Crystilium Supply – 79 units (at least 75 required) Security Headquarters Operational (Undamaged) Weapons Locker – 3 unspent phasers (2 spent) Slave Pens – Operational (Undamaged) Sleeping Quarters – Damaged. 18 berths requiring repair (enough berths for 5 people to sleep) The Crew Command Staff Captain - Alan T First Officer – Kwhit Second Officer - Render Security Chief - Hoopsguy Exhausted Ensign – Chubby Chief Engineer - Tyrith Exhausted Engineers PurdueBrad Exhuasted Danny Exhuasted JeHeinz72 Exhuasted Claphamsa Exhuasted Medical Staff Doctor - path12 Doctor - MarcVaughn Exhausted Medic - The Jackal Medic - bulletsponge Security Staff Sergeant at Arms - oliegirl Exhausted Warden - Passacagalia Exhausted Galley Master - Schmidty Slavemaster – Saldana Exhausted Security Crewman - Mrs. Schmidty Exhausted Scientists LoneStarGirl Exhausted PackerFanatic Exhausted Slaves 17 slaves accounted 3 slaves dead Deceased Telle - Spawn mccollins – Survivor Last edited by Barkeep49 : 07-11-2008 at 09:14 AM. |

We need water, bad. We have enough for just over a day. I have to leave for work but will be on before deadline. I'm putting my vote in from yesterday unless I see something better when I get home. VOTE BULLET |

Barkeep, can you help re-clarify how water works?
We drunk water this morning. if we go on a water supply mission today it is only for today anyways and since we already drunk water this morning it doesn't do anything for tommorrow correct it would only be added to the cargo hold if there is any space left (which might be doubtful if we also do a crystlium run today)? Correct? |

Barkeep one other question.. If we go on a crystlium mission can we request to not have any extra replace the water in the hold? ie: we want to keep x amount of water but fill up the rest of the hold from the mission? If so, who would have to request this and how? |

So, away mssions today. I slept last night, so I need to plan whatever away missions we want to do this morning.
I can see an argument for mining mission (a few more crys just to be safe and give us a buffer for phaser repair), a water mission (as we're running low), both missions or no missions at all (to spare the chance of infection). So I'm looking for input on what our away mission(s) should be today. |

I probably should refrain from saying who I think is ok or not until we get into space so further conversions can't happen.. I was basing my thought on something else I read this morning (don't remember what) but was basing it more on how they've acted in the thread moreso than voting behavior |

Purdue, Tyrith, and clap (with clap trailing behind Tyrith like a little puppy following its master) all head to the water plant to enact some repairs.

You could give it as an order or Schmidty could do it as a free action.

Ok so engine work is done. I think water trumps in priority over fixing beds, don't you all agree?
I"m hesitant to put the action in right now though, as since it's not imperative for lift-off I can wait until after lift-off in case any funny stuff goes down. Thoughts? |

Water mission doesn't make any sense I don't think. we only have 23 slots in the cargo hold, and crystlium seems more important to get extra of. So if we get 5 - 15 crystlium the extra water we get ends up not really being enough to matter (at least to risk further exposure outside)... I think we send out Saldana + slaves to pick up extra crystlium then we take off |

I think Crys for sure. I'd like to see us lift off with a buffer of 10. I don't know how vital the water is to actually go get (at the risk of infection). We're 5 repair units from fixing it, and we have 6 units both during the day today and tonight. |
