Who's The Boss
Game #3093: Who Stole the Wedding Cake?
This private game is moderated by Jayo. Please read the rules and contact the moderator with any questions or concerns about this game.
This game finished in 6 rounds.
Habs had discovered a vital clue to the identity of the Thief, and was about to share it!
Alas, the Thief was wily and had added a little something to her drink...Habs is snoozing and won't be sharing anything until she wakes up! Froggy is keeping an eye on her, not being the thief, Froggy is trusting that the others can prevent the cake-gate from occuring
Oh! But what's this??

I have no ideas now, my first thought was Scrub, he was fired, then it was HABS, she is also gone.

Just want to point out that Chasing Cars are stellar jams. Will wait for others before voting.

Safety for Bobbi because she's at the top of the list. Waiting for Jayo's post.
Bobbi: because the people who were fired in the first round had voted for us. I wouldn't consider us cleared, because it was a MoO after all, but it's something to go on.

That's what I remember when I was boss that with a Mo0 vote, EVERYONE except the Rat and the one who actually voted for the boss (if it wasn't the rat) is offered to the boss and any two could be fired So at this point we only have one cleared and that is Har.
I'm looking at the latest psych answer, and there are some misspellings and grammar errors. I can just feel Shadows cringing over this, unless of course she intentionally put them there to throw us off. I'm definitely going to have to give this more thought, but for now will safety for Kmr and since I have absolutely no idea about the cipher that Jayo posted, will wait to see if anyone else can solve it.

ARE YOU HAPPY !!!?????
KRUM I believe I am cleared and the old "SICK" ploy doesnt do you any favors!!!
I have an Idea why dont you all vote HAR EVERY ROUND!!! and see how that works out for us!!!!
REALITY....
Here is where I am at...
1 I want to revisit this snow clearing of Celt thing...
2. I think the boss is probably a dude...or a girl trying to sound like a dude...
3. The boss wishes he would have fired me earlier in the game if he/she had the chance..
4. I think the S's should stick together...Snow Shadows and SirHar...
I will log in a vote for Braden!!!

Making some progress on the cipher. It appears to be a simple substitution cipher so far. I'll edit in a bit once I have all of it.
EDIT: The cipher has two parts. The first part is a Caesar cipher with a shift of 11.
Ciphertext: otojzfvyzhesleespcplcpehzatpnpdz qtyqzcxletzyeslehzfwompzqdzxpg lwfpezeszdphszhzfwodppvezqztwespestpq
Plaintext: Did you know that there are two pieces of information that would be of some value to those who would seek to foil the thief?
Starting on the second part now.
Ciphertext: ghaufungyttfunndybcbcwyaywhbpyyuhcqyhbcvu yshuthcvajrfafunfucwfbnhsyhutcwyahcfbbcfqqgfcwdb
Plaintext: ???
EDIT 2: Well, that was easier than I expected. It's just a different substitution cipher. I'm going to see if it's a keyword cipher, just in case there's something else hidden in the keyword (I've done that for clues before).
Plaintext: Warning wedding guests, there has been at least one mandatory firing in this game, and the Rat is still with us.
Okay, so, only four firings, and at least one was a mandatory. I imagine the first round is more likely to have mandatory firings, although the memo did mention lies or whatever. I think I'll switch my vote to celt.
EDIT 3: The second cipher alphabet looks random. I'm assuming it's not a keyword cipher because W maps to G, which wouldn't happen unless the keyword is like 20 letters long. EDIT 4: Oh wait, maybe it's a keyword and THEN a Caesar.
EDIT 5: I'm starting to rethink my celt vote. If celt were the Boss and dcf a mandatory firing, then the second piece of information (the Rat) wouldn't be "of some value". On the other hand, if the mandatory were from the last round and Har were the Boss, then it would matter that the Rat was among those who voted for him. What do you all think? Sticking with celt for now (because I don't think Har is the Boss, punctuation, memos, blah blah blah).
EDIT 6: Is there a limit on how long posts can be? Just a quick update: nothing hidden in the second cipher alphabet. RSTU happen to map to ABCD, but there's no real pattern or keyword or anything in there that I could find. The message was also lacking in variety of letters, which makes this difficult.
Okay, I'm done! Off to bed!

Yeah after reading, I am going to change my vote to Braden.

Now I'm confused. When exactly did you vote for Celt?

Shadows changed her vote to Celt in her last post. She just didn't bold it.
Cut and pasted from her post - Okay, so, only four firings, and at least one was a mandatory. I imagine the first round is more likely to have mandatory firings, although the memo did mention lies or whatever. I think I'll switch my vote to celt.
I was starting to suspect Shadows, but she's being so dern helpful, not sure. Will stick with Celtic, we need to clear another player, or catch the boss.
Why are Celt and kmrutledge voting for Bobby? Kmrutledge, you say after reading you're changing to Bobby. What did you read to make you change your mind?

Okay, now I see where she changed her vote. Sorry, guess that's why it helps to boldyour vote.
Remember the time difference for Kmr, she will never get back to answer that question, but it does seem strange that she just changed her vote to me without further comment. I have no problem with being voted for, but I'm not the thief, so it's just a wasted vote, especially in a majority.
If there was a mandatory I would bet that it wasn't HABS or Froggy, and unlikely it was Scrub. so, if it was dcf525 and he voted for Celt, that could explain a lot. I think I will change my vote to Celt, that's the best I've got for now.

Ooh, interesting voting list. Ideally, we should have had at least four votes on celt. I'd like to know why kmr read everything (including the solution to the clue) and yet decided to vote for Bobbi, of all people. If she had voted for celt we could've either won the game or cleared him for good.
Oh well. Looks like everyone is potentially on the chopping board this round. If I'm not here next round, I think it would be a good idea to vote for Har again (because if I get fired then celt would be sufficiently cleared, and then Har would be the only remaining option, keeping the clue in mind).
EDIT: missed the end parenthesis

Isn't Har cleared??????? WHY would we vote for a cleared player? Shadows, if you are still here, you will be a top suspect. Hopefully we'll get another cleared player out of who gets fired. If by chance you are fired, I still do not see your reasoning, as we still have kmrutledge to consider, and everyone else that may not be cleared.

Jayo said that there was a mandatory firing at some point, and that the Rat is still in the game. He also said that this is important if we want to find the Boss. Although people like kmr are viable suspects, I don't see what mandatories and the Rat have to do with them. Unless I'm reading into the clue too much, which I don't think is the case - that second cipher looked like it was supposed to be hard to crack.
I don't mind being a top suspect - it gets me through to the next round. Although it really doesn't matter if I get fired either. We'll see what happens.
