Imagine I said something deep here...
... goddammit. I've got winvirus and/or PoP making up stuff in the OoT chat, and now I'm getting targeted in the thread.

merk, sorry if you didn't get my messages, but I'm being told OoT that winvirus is talking direct to Hal, which given your convo in the thread with Hal and him and winvirus joking about allying in the thread is obvious bullshit.

Somber/Rarity, unless EXAKT is talking to you OoT you're making a mistake here. He's hanging on the sidelines, surviving by not engaging which is exaktly the type of player I was talking about yesterday.

I'm meeting people for drinks in ten, and won't be back on until drat near deadline.

I could be, but I'm not. But Byers knew we were connected somehow so obviously there is some circle of connection between you and byers/winvirus/PoP and misinformation is being spread through that.

I've decided to play this game 'straight,' unlike my Survivor experience. I will not tell a lie this game.

I think it's hard to know how well you're doing in this game though. I thought I was in an okay position but then someone lied to me yesterday and I'll have to wait and see how screwed I am :argh:

Also I think it's important to remember while the best guess yesterday was 3, that player/those players are probably excluding all known words. Realistically some people are halfway through the code, and that makes me ~nervous.~

Going forward, to account for weekends, deadlines will be on a cycle that repeats every two weeks rather than every single week. All deadlines will be at 9 eastern, all day starts will be at noon eastern.

Day 3 deadline: Tue, 11/11/2014
Day 4 begins: Wed, 11/12/2014
Day 4 deadline: Thu, 11/13/2014
Day 5 begins: Fri, 11/14/2014
Day 5 deadline: Mon, 11/17/2014
Day 6 begins: Tue, 11/18/2014
Day 6 deadline: Wed, 11/19/2014
Day 7 begins: Thu, 11/20/2014
Day 7 deadline: Fri, 11/21/2014
Day 8 begins: Sun, 11/23/2014
Day 8 deadline: Tue, 11/25/2014

and so on. If we get to (American) Thanksgiving beyond that day 8, I'll just have day 9 be extra long to account for people (and mods!) who are traveling.

Also of note: If you don't submit a line of communication to me in time, you'll default back to your choice for the previous day. If that person is dead and you didn't give me a backup...OOPS!
