locked already.

But don't underestimate the odds for Starbuck protecting once more the right guy. I guess it's almost a given that you and Chrmjenkins die the next two nights. Unless of course we take out #12 the next day. They have to gamble 50/50 with their second nightly kill (chrmjenkins).

don't get me wrong, i do think we have the better chance now, but i was just pointing out that it is not a win yet, so we must still pay attention

I think the other two cylons know each other for sure. Otherwise, you're saying starbuck self protected night 2 and they didn't go after that person on night 3. Seems very unlikely.
 
Most likely scenario is they found each other night 2 and DP was protected last night. DP is a shoe in for death tonight then.

starbuck could have protected scepticalscribe on night 2

And taken that chance? One hell of a gamble. I wouldn't have done it.

i agree that yours is the most likely scenario, but not the only possible reasonable scenario.
if they were under the impression SS was good they might have decided to risk it.
 
Since you're still around DP; any last suggestions / hunches re next lynch? :D
 
really not sure,
you can argue for/against any of the three.

it could be that rick was trying to bait votes for him as #12 with the strange posts, to get an extra death early. however, some of Jav's posting could also be seen in that same light.

SilentPanda has played the good citizen for the entire game, but it also could be a carefully maintained cover.

jav was a bit allover the place, with votes for both rick and the final vote on plutonius, but at that point pluto was a goner so that might simply be a cover move.

would like to hear what they have to say
 
"Tigh! You fracking dumbass! I'm not a fracking Cylon! Frack you!" Starbuck screamed from behind the cell bars.

"Shut the frack up. Mind your rank," snapped Tigh as he approached the cell with a specialist and two soldiers in tow.

Kara "Starbuck" Thrace in the Brig

"Sir," Starbuck stood up at attention, her training overcoming her rage.

"I don't trust that Baltar guy even though every fracking one seems to worship the ground he fracking walks on. Test her."

The specialist approaches Starbuck hesitatingly. Starbuck, suddenly calm, stuck her arm through the bars.

The needle went in. As Tigh expected -- as he hoped -- it read NEGATIVE.

"Let her out. And arrest Baltar immediately."


The battlestar was in chaos as Tigh's men searched the ship. Baltar was nowhere to be found.

"He must be here, somewhere, damn it" raged Tigh over the transceivers.


The former President of the Twelve Colonies strode into the CIC. Even though Roslin is no longer the president, she still radiated authority. The CIC fell into silent as she approached XO Tigh.

"You cannot continue like this. We will not survive."

"You don't tell me what to do. I declared martial law, and I am now in control, not you or that pathetic little government you called yourself the president of. Is that all you came to say? You wasted your --"

"Baltar is on the Colonial One. I will not allow you to kill him, despite his apparent betrayal."

Colonial One

"You -- you fracking bitch. Take this fracking traitor to the brig!" When the guards hesitated, he screamed, "NOW!"

As the silent former president walked out of the CIC followed by two guards, Tigh turned to the display. "Send two vipers out there.

Eliminate the Colonial One," Tigh commanded into the transceiver.

The CIC went into a stunned silence.

"But you can't do that, There's other civilians aboard that ship!"

"I don't give a ****. Baltar will not escape justice for betraying the human race!"

"We refuse to obey that order," came a voice from the speaker. "I am the CAG and my pilots stand with me. We will not attack a civilian ship."

"You -- I command --" Tigh looked around the CIC, at the stunned and defiant eyes. He knew that at this moment he is no longer in command.

"Fine. I resign my rank. You do what you want," Tigh stormed out of the CIC, the silence of failure following him.


Alcohol is an escape. It has always been.

Tigh stared at the bottle of vodka sitting on the table in the front of him.

He keeps falling back into it. Really, he has never left alcohol's embrace, even though he fooled himself into believing that for a time.

Tigh grabbed the bottle and took a long gulp.

Go on, ethanol. Wash it all way.

Another gulp.

As Saul Tigh fell into the depths of his self-failure, a quiet, commanding voice came through the door.

"What is happening on my ship?"

Sythas has been killed and is human. It is now NIGHT.
 
you watch your fracking mouth, Helo.
i am not in the mood here.
Some frackin' cylon punk stole my vespa yesterday and I spent all day fruitlessly interacting with law enforcement, not to mention insurance people.

My condolences! No joking around with stolen Vespas! :(

:) yeah, it sucks. that's why I wasn't around yesterday.
morning i was busy coaching the kids (2 wins, yuppee!), then after lunch i went to get the bike to get to work and it was conspicuously missing.
found an officer, filed a report and spent the rest of the day riding with him around the neighborhood and checking out nearby establishment's security footage.
it was kind of cool and the officer was really nice, but as expected nothing came up.
i was actually quite surprised they dedicated so much time to a stolen motorcycle.
 
Aww, was it an old machine?

Not sure where "having a drink at Miliways is" but maybe you luck out and they find it? Once my brand-new bike was stolen at a friends place (inner-city) and when I noticed was half-ass searching around since no fraking way would I ever find it...but I did: in the backyard of the next door building. Thrown into the bushes. lol, only the saddle was lost. Not going to tell how I locked it in the first place though. Embarrassing. :eek: :D

4 yrs old.
we went around exactly in case it was just some kids wheeling it off and dropping it somewhere once they get bored with it, but we didn't find anything.

Milliway's is the Restaurant at the End of the Universe. Awesome place, best views in the history of time.
a tad expensive for walk-ins, but if you plan properly it's dirt-cheap.

you should visit. ;)

Pretty much. At any rate. For US-based people. I will (for the remainder of this week only) be in the graveyard shift, so expect my activity to be night-time only.

Busted! :D

Pluto was actually right about looking at the nightly kills. In this case more like nightly-no-kills: My guess is Jav is #12.

First of all: this post during the first night, nothing special and rather bold but in light of the quite early (and quite likely) unification it would make sense that the Cylons tried it - and succeeded. Second: Can't really see a reason for the cylons to kill Rick that early - except because he was on Hawaii and Pluto wasn't.
Thirdly, I don't believe Rick's last minute confusion posts.

Since I have no doubt that Jav has indeed his night-shift at work to attend, could it be bad timing with our last switch to Pluto he couldn't really try to take some heat. But I'm really not sure about the timezones y'all are playing in, so this may be irrelevant (and would've been hard to do anyway).

Just sayin' since DP can still contribute tonight.
 
"I messed up bad," Tigh groaned as Adama, with a walking cane, walked into the room.

"We went through bad times in the past. We will get through this one."

"I messed up real bad this time. Real bad."

"We will get through this one," Adama repeated as he sits down at the table.


"Cylon Raider spotted! Approaching at 2 klicks!"

"So the Cylons finally found us. It is a matter of time," said Adama, fully clothed in military garb, walking into the CIC to applause. He is followed by Saul Tigh, who then remained in the back near the entry.

"XO, call the Vipers into action, we have a Raider approaching."

Commander Adama returns to the CIC

"I resigned. I am not fit --"

"You do not resign without my permission. Do as you are told," commanded Adama.

Tigh nodded and went to the strategic map. "Get five Vipers ready! There's a Raider approaching, and we are going to drop it!"

"Yes sir!" replied the CAG.

"And prepare the FTL. And tell the other ships to do the same. We need to leave," Adama commanded.


Helo rested his head against the cell bars. A sound made him jolt his head up. The sole guard guarding the brig suddenly fell over, face down, dead. Behind him is a figure of a woman. He could not identify her. She then approached Athena's cell, out of view.

"I can't allow you to betray us and live. Goodbye, Eight," the woman said.

A horrifying realization hit Helo and he begun to scream, "STAY AWAY FROM HER! FRACKING LEAVE HER ALONE!"

But he could do nothing as a gunshot hit his ears -- and his heart.

Don't panic killed by Cylons. It is now DAY.

Nevermind. Bad day, eh? :D


RickSnagwell

Never played with SilentPanda, so no idea really, seems like a very good player anyway but to post so constantly and contructive like a brave citizen makes me confident to give him the benefit of the doubt.
 
Farewell.


One more thing though, if Jav is indeed 12 it actually makes perfectly sense not trying him the very first night based on said post. Would've been much too obvious.
 
Well, to some extent, my vote doesn't count anymore. If 3 of the cleared list vote together, I'll likely lock it in if I notice to expedite the game, otherwise I'll just piddle around.

Well not piddle like a dog does. I'm house trained.
