mith, if your word isn't completely impossible to convey through written language
Then you're (mith) probably a mole. Actually, if we end up losing because of this, or if we win and the person mith suggests isn't a mole (since he supposedly knows who they are now), I'd be seriously worried that he's one. Acting really pro-town at the start is always a good facade to put up for later...

Just some thoughts, don't take them overly seriously (yet).

Sine that drops it to 6, the highest value you can get is 49. This game is a loss. I don't see a point in doing the last person unless you want to for the items.

mith, you suck. I still don't know what you're trying to tell us. Is that a reference to e-mail? strongbad? homestarrunner? Marzipan? I haven't a single clue as to what you could possibly be trying to convey with this range of nonsensical words. Is it "words" ? "Impossible" maybe? how about "Mole"?

I agree. OMGMS. Mith, what were your suggestions for who was a mole, anyway? I'm curious to know, especially if you end up dying tonight.

Let's just consider mith's done. His was "Peace"

Gaspode's only matters for the exemption. Sending.

mith, you're an idiot. how the heck does "Red" have anything to do with Peace? I can see Part being Piece, but i'm not sure i know where you were going with Fruit...

You should be shot.

That's right.
Note that Termital(Mac) and Mith's were just cut off at 5, it didn't matter. I'll pick one randomly between both pairs to see who gets what.
Termital(Mac)--5
DragonSlayer--9
Wordcross--9
Mole--10
Mith--5
Gaspode--10

The exemption goes to...Mole!
The immunity goes to...Mac!

Mith, that was plain wrong of you to do. Fortunatly i saw it. Mith guessed Praise, and was Right.

I'm going to strip you of your exemption you earned for that stunt.

The next player to meet with a fate worse than death....oh wait, it's just death.

Gaspode, a player, is assasinated by the Moles.

Next game (Possibly the last) to be posted soon.

Round 8: Logical Signs

The 5 of you have been put into a dungeon. There are 8 sections of the dungeon, and in each you will find a certain number of signs posted over a certain number of doors. Some will be true, some will be false. You must ascertain which door is the correct door to pass through. If you enter the wrong door, you are out. The objective is for at least 1 person to make it through all 8 sections.

This is how it will work. I will post the current round, along with the number of doors and what all the signs say. You will then have 24 hours for discussion. After that, no more discussing. Then you will have another 24 hours to send in which door you wish to enter. That is, each person makes their own descision. I will then reveal who survived.

Questions? Bah, dinner time, first roundwhen i get back

Btw, I'm protesting that Mac got the immunity. I could have taken mine down to 0 easily. Termital was replaced in time for Mac to get higher than 0, and he had no reason to take it to 0 (the immunity does him no good).

Sorry for the changing my answer bit, dethy confused me the other day about something.

You are in a largish room and you see two doors on the far side. The left is marked with a large A and the right a B.

Above each is a sign:

A: Only one of these signs is false
B: This is the door you should through

Time starts now.

the correct door is A

If that statement ("Only one of these statements is false") is true, the the other ("This is the right door to go through") must be false, so then you go through A.

If statement A is false, then you can't have one true one false. Since we are already assuming that A is false, they can't both be true. Which means that both are false, and Statement B is therefore wrong, so we got through A.

I have recieved a single choice. Mith enters door A and lives. Everyone else dies from a poisonous gas that enters the room after the time was up.

A: Exactly two of these signs are false

Game over, as soon as I figure out which door is right (so I can pick a wrong one).

I'll go through Door C. I'm not sure whether you intended C to be a command rather than a true/false statement or not, makes it an interesting problem though.

It was a true/false statement. in other words, the next "safe room" is beyound C. Which it's not.

Mith dies. Moles win this round.

And that's it for the first run of EtM.

The moles kill off a player, it doesn't matter which one.

Now there are 2 players and 2 moles. Players no longer have the votes to get a mole out. Moles can continue untill they lose a game, and win on the following round.

Congrats to Mith and DS for seeing this through and boooo to everyone else who stopped paying attention.

deth, my point was that, as worded, it's a command. As such, it's neither true or false, and so the right door would be B. w00t and stuff, though, another game finally over.

Dang. GG everybody (that was nice play mith, for awhile I was thinking that you were acting much too pro-town to be faking it), and thanks, Dethwing!

Btw, don't boo me. I payed attention, even after I was dead.

dethy, you split the choices etc. into two seperate 24 hour periods. the first was for discussion, of which i saw none, so i didn't remember to check back in the thread, so i forgot to send in a choice. I think in the future that you should indicate to people in this kind of game that it is e-mail intensive and requires active participation. And make sure that people confirm before you start playing, so that they're aware that they signed up

I would have even let you post your choice if you wanted. You didn't even say anything like "I choose door A"

Sorry you feel that way.
