Specially since he's a Borg.... OR IS HE?

If you throw enough stupid guesses at the wall, one should be right eventually, myp.

Still waiting, mind...

Joans is the queen, Malc is his drone. Am I close?

Hey, that was my first stupid guess of the whole game. I knew Russ was a baddie, though. Felt it in my bones.

That makes Joans and Slightly Green Borg IMO.

Thanks for that. I now know who everyone is.

(you're wrong by the way)

Has the game died - day is going really really slowly

Bobby, just vote FFS!

Why do I get the feeling it is just you and I playing this Joans? Where are these malfunctioning airlocks when you need them?

Bobby, just vote FFS!

So... it's still not over...

Wow, surely it'll be over by morning? Can the game even function if there are only 3 players left?

I think it's happened before.

We've definitely had a tie before, as I was one of the two people left alive.

Convinced that he is the remaining bad guy, Curiosity and KevR turn on Runcle. They tackle him to the ground, and a struggle ensues. Runcles tries to grope inside his jacket, scrabbling for his gun, but it's no good. KevR pins his arms down while Curiosity grabs a spade and beats Runcle to death.

From his dying actions, it becomes clear what side he was on:

Runcle was a Mafia Goon.

Blood-spattered and exhausted, not just from today but the events of the week, Curio and Kev look at each other. A tense moment ensues and suddenly they both burst out laughing. With the last mafia man dead, neither of them can win.

KevR reveals that he is a Vanilla Townie, and Curiosity admits that he was once a Bulletproof Townie but is now a Cult Convert. With a pub full of booze and no need to pay for it, they head off for a drink, and resolve to leave town together the next day. The game ends as a Town/Cult stalemate.

Congrats to all who played. This thread is now unlocked for chat. Notable mentions and awards shortly.

DazPaz, a man on the edge with no sanity left, engages Zaphod79 in heated debate.
Pulling a pistol salvaged from the APC he holds zaphod at gunpoint.

'Your going for the uplink not me!' He cries.
At that moment an Alien warrior busrts in and annihilates both of our remaining DACS

The Aliens, under lone warrior Joans, win!

Zaphod and Davpaz are dummest od DACS! D'oh...

Who the heck was KevR?

Which wanker wrote that bollocks?

That's so funny, I didn't bother clicking on the link and assumed based on this comment that it was you that had written it.

I'd forgotten I hosted a game once. Awesome.

You peon. Ironically I thought it was really well-written

Given how near the end we are, and how short I made the night phase, I'm gonna extend it to try and make sure we get all the actions in.

Yeah, that's the main reason I thought it was me.

I hope this doesn't last all weekend, but I suspect it will get down to two people with two votes each, and crippling indecision from the last person...

I can see a consensus being reached, eventually, and then the night actions that will potentially decide the winner. There's actually potential for a draw, but it's pretty unlikely.

Malc's laying it on far too thick with his "Romulan's aren't a threat, the borg will doom us all" shtick.

Bobby seems to have overlooked the fact that Pete could have been assimilated last night, so who he voted for previously would be immaterial. OR HAS HE?!?

Soft tinkling yet subtly menacing piano music, one note after another in an ascending scale until, suddenly, it begins again from the bottom, ever repeating... A man with a pointy ears stands atop an ascending escalator, suspended in the cosmos. He arrives at the waiting room, where he takes a ticket and joins the queue for his wings. A large crowd of glaring Federation members await him. Hello everyone, it is I, the Romulan Leader. Sorry about all the murder. It seemed like a good idea at the time. I do hope you won't hold it against me. I'm just glad to be back amongst the living... well, the soulful. It began to get awfully creepy being surrounded by dead-eyed Borg posing as humans. It was almost a relief when that thundering clot Bobbyaro voted me dead. Good job I jury rigged the coffee machine to self destruct, thus immolating myself in scolding hot Americano before I had the indignity of being lynched. Yes, I agree there's a better way of killing oneself with vapourisation and all that, but paranoia does funny things to the mind. So... where do I get assigned to?

I can only presume there are 2 romulans and 2 borg left, with both sides waiting for the last crewman to cast the final vote to decide who wins.

There's only 5 of 'em left. SG and NP are nto around much during the day, leaving it as Malc, Bobby and Joans to discuss during the day. Malc and Joans have made their cases and voted... just remains for Bobby to decide which way his vote will go.

Curiosity wrote: So... it's still not over... My guess at the moment : 4 players left 1 romulan 2 borg 1 riker Riker cannot be captured by the borg , the romulan can kill someone - the borg can borgify the remaining romulan. The borgify comes first in the order of stuff more stuff to be added as i work through it 1: The Borg hit Riker (joans?) - no recruit The Romulan hits the queen Leaves 1 players one of each side left (if riker then sides with the romulan then the borg goes out and the romulan kills riker the next night romulans win / if riker sides with the borg then the romulan goes out and its a draw human / borg ) 2 : The borg hit riker - no recruit The romulan hits the drone Leaves 1 players one of each side left (if riker then sides with the romulan then the borg goes out and the romulan kills riker the next night romulans win / if riker sides with the borg then the romulan goes out and its a draw human / borg , however since the queen can recruit the romulan it would make sence for them not to vote and recruit the romulan next night - and if the romulan kills riker = borg win , if the romulan kills the borg queen = borg win as they could kill riker the next night) 3: The borg hit the remaining romulan - recruit The romulan hits anyone - it doesnt matter - borg win
