*starts a hefty debate with the group whether the liquor should be consumed upstairs or in scepticalscribe's cellar*

It's a trap! Don't go into the basement! <crappy 70s infected slasher grindhouse flic

No, drinks are served in an elegantly appointed location……in a light filled and airy, commodious, comfortable and discreetly welcoming environment….

Whereas the cellar, well, the cellar is reserved for matters of storage, namely books, more books, wine, beer, aged whiskey, XO cognac………and yet more books….
 
Well now, since day 1 has nothing to go on... I may as well shoot a bullet in the air and see where it lands.

But given the fact that I need a gun to do so, I'll just cast my cautious vote for ravenvii.
 
I could go for Rick, but since I'm Canadian, I'll give you a break. But I think that if you gather to much vote I'll lock you! 😎


Tomorrow you got no vote man.

after looking at the tally and the upcoming deadline, I'll cut UCFgrad some slack and change that vote to Jav, who is currently in second place, to force a tie at 3 each.

Yes, twietee; somehow, it calls to mind those old folktales, you know, that particular one with the piece of dialogue that runs thus: "Oh, Granny, what big teeth you have….."

However, the case of Mr Suarez seems more or less settled for now.

Re Plutonius, I have noted in my own parallel notes that his vote was a bolded red; I am not sure how we are supposed to read that. Is it a genuine vote (given that these are usually bolded in black?) Or a signal that something is worth paying heed to?

I know not the answer to this…..

I just combined my list with my pick (bolded red) 🙂. I'm following Appleguy's lead and switching to Rick for a three way tie.

It's a four way tie really, DP forgot my vote change. techgod, ravenvii, jav and rick each with three votes and in that order too (DP changed to jav in his edited post #86 after my vote in #87)


Pluto, are you sure that putting one single name down can be considered a list already 😛
 
"Jesus, that's the 8th time in a row!" Tomorrow threw the cards in exasperation.

Don't Panic smiled. "I guess now is the wrong time to tell you I used to be a card counter in Vegas."

Tomorrow's mouth hung open in bemused disbelief before they both started laughing.

Their bonding was cut short by Sheila stumbling into the room, slightly wheezing. She collided clumsily with Tomorrow. "Woah, Sheila, are you okay? Jesus, your shoulder is on fire!"

He knelt down to look in her eyes and recoiled in horror. Her eyes had gone almost completely white, and her lips were curled in a snarl. She lunged at him.

"Shi..."

BLAM

The shot took the back of her skull off, which landed with a wet thunking sound next to Don't Panic's feet. Sheila's limp body slumped against Tomrrow who backed away quickly in disgust, sending her body sprawling on the concrete.

Techgod stepped in the room, barrel still smoking.

"Wha...how did she...turn?" Tomorrow stammered. "She wasn't dead!"

Don't Panic sat in thought for a moment. "Her shoulder. You said it was hot. Which shoulder?"

"Uh, her left one," Tomorrow replied, clearly unaware where the line of questioning was going.

Don't Panic walked over to the body and kicked it onto its back. The bite on her shoulder rolled into view. The wound had mortified, and a thick green excretion was coming out of the bite marks.

By that point, others had joined them, and a sense of panic was descending on the room.

"We have to check everyone for bites" Queen of Spades said coldly. "Didn't you have a bite, techgod?"

"Hold on" he said slowly, backing up from the group, raised gun shaking. "This... isn't definitive. We have a case of one. Maybe... maybe some of us can be immune."

Smatters of arguments began going back and forth between the group.

"Wait a second," Plutonius said caustically. "You expect us to believe, through the magic of evolution, you've inherited a gene that makes you immune to a devastating plague, the likes of which we've never seen, that turns everyone into homicidal maniacs with no sign of higher mammalian functions?"

"You can't agitate him like that," ucfgrad93 was whispering into Plutonius's ear as a new level of panic was filling the room.

"Yeah, we can't take that chance." Koodauw put a round in the back of techgod's head.

It is now NIGHT 1 . Techgod, a normal villager, has been killed. Deadline for PMs is 9 PM PDT, 4 AM GMT.
