Players may vote for themselves. I will only confirm the person who is lynched. In that case, I think we should, if possible, do what we can to avoid a similar situation as last Night, with the point-leader-tie-breaker implicated in the tie that he/she is breaking. Which means some actual public discussion of what is in our vote PMs, and I hope that only the Cheater would potentially be lying about such things. As long as that is the case, we may be able to avoid undesirable ties by trying to ensure that there are at least two votes between the vote leader and the runner up. Though with a game this small that is going to be tough. This is what was done on the Game Show : If no contestant receives three votes, all contestants lose half their money [points], and the Cheater is allowed to secretly eliminate an honest player*. *Any player. What do you think of that as a solution ?

Oh and, now is probably the time to defend your vote. I voted for Ed (twice) because I didn't think that the cheater would intentionally go for 0 points in round 1 and that left the choice between TL and Ed. It was essentially a coin flip between the two of them. I don't know. I think the Cheater could quite easily sit back and take a zero or a lower score for the first couple of rounds, see how the early points get distributed, and then pull a higher score or two later without much difficulty.

I voted for Ed because I was shooting for a hard to remember president to get points, and he answered Richard Nixon, when I saw his answer, I thought he would get no points since that is such an obvious president.
I think that was okay for a starter round, but this time we should talk about who we are voting for before we send in the PMs. By the time I was even thinking about typing up a vote post, Meeko had posted that there was 2 or 3 votes already in. I hope today doesn't go that way.
Also, I agree that we should avoid ties. We may have handed the cheater a tie and an easy decision. I think having a longer discussion would facilitate us coming to an agreement to avoid ties.
When I think of Muppets, I think of the Muppet Christmas Carol, and Rizzo the Rat.
Answer: Rizzo the Rat

It doesn't make the wait any easier to think of the all of the yummy food and other Parisian delights she's probably enjoying while not choosing a Muppet. :drooling-butter-addict-smiley:

On the Up side, after she answers, the rotation would put her bottom.
I'm sorry for this gang. I believe I PMed her yesterday.
I want this game to continue as much as you guys do.

Since we've heard NAF's reasoning. And he asked about favorite presidents. @ed, @total: Why did you pick your respective answers? This is why I voted redskeezix. I don't see why asking only the ones getting points makes any sense. Too me it felt like a smudge. Anyone can make up a reason for why they picked one over another - this post makes it look like only the 3 getting points in round 1 could be the cheater. Also I saw a post from NAF expressing the same opinion. I smell a "scum would never do that" in this position...

Did you know, that if you use Firefox as a browser, you can have an add called "bork bork"? It will "translate" all writing into the language of the sweedish chef. I love that one - have no idea why anyone would come up with an idea like that - but some part of me find it too cool for words

How was Paris, TL?
Also, what similar opinion was I suggesting that you are calling a smudge? I want to make sure I understand what you are saying before I respond.

No - I was calling Redzxwxzx (I can't remember the spelling)'s post a smugde. Yours was really. You just stated that if you hadn't voted Ed twice (!) you would have voted me. Not so much a smudge, really - just something I found a bit weird, because we always say "scum would never do that"'s don't count. You saying scum/the cheater making points round 1 - made me think, that maybe scum might not do that...

I was just trying to appear worldly and witty, but I don't speak any French and used Google to translate that post on Facebook. For all I know I could have told you that Meeko was a Muppet who just ate your phone.

Don't knock the Muppet Babies, though, that was a great show. I learned to love Johnny Carson at the tender age of 6 because of them.

It was interesting to see the ""Muppet Babies"" as actual Muppets. I am watching Fraggle Rock on Netflix. I missed that the first time through as I didnt have HBO growing up. Great GREAT humor there, that no kid is ever going to get.

She doesn't get it.
