Sorry so late guys. Baby was sick this morning then had to deal with baby daddy drama. and to clarify,,,,, I was more dissappointed in the way Gizzer reacted. However, I will not confirm wether or not he/she was the rat.

Will throw another vote out on Scrubb to start

I'll put in a safety vote for Spider. If anyone wants to join me, please do so, and I won't move onto another player, unless something substantial comes up that makes me want to.
I believe the boss is male, was leaning towards a male who's still in school, but not so sure about that any more. I can imagine Spider with a ball in his hand, ready to throw it any anyone he can. . . . . 6th grade was the last time I played dodge ball, and at that point, many boys still didn't like girls and we were easy targets. Thanks, but no thanks. One boy aimed for heads too. . . . I can't see HABS enjoying that game either.
I really hope the drama of last round, stays in last round and we can enjoy the rest of the game.
edit - mooshroomdood stated a vote for ghost and I don't think braingle01 posted at all last round, so more than likely they were a mandi.
IF mooshroomdood actually voted as he stated, then ghost is cleared.
To me - that leaves Spider, HP, Scrub as my suspects. I "think" in that order.

Take all sorrow out of life and you take away all richness, and depth, and tenderness. The capacity of sorrow belongs to our grandeur. It is the furnace that melts hearts together in love.

YoU are absolutely correct Snow, I am not a huge fan of dodgebal. Not really athletically inclined at all. I hated gym in school, and once I got my one compulsary credit out of ypthe way, I never took it again.
I don't really drink hot beverages. I can't stand coffee or tea and hardly ever drink hot chocolate. I prefer my caffine cold.
I could go with a Spider vote. Wondering what others think?
Maybe the dog only brings the ball back because he thinks you like throwing it.

It doesn't really make sense for Gizzer to act the way she did if I am the boss, don't ya think? Anyway, Id prefer a Scrubb vote but if yous wanna clear me go ahead.

Yeah, the gizz reaction makes no sense if Spid is boss. I'll go scrubb

Well, if scrubb is the way you guys want to go, i'm game. Hopefully Gizzer was telling the truth about being the rat and the rest of you (other than the boss) can be trusted.
Switching to sxrub.

Gizzer has no reason to lie about being the rat. And I think she was more upset with HABS's post. THat's what I got from her reaction.
You guys are so easily swayed. lol

I think it makes a lot of sense with her being the rat. She can see how everyone is voting, but that we are not posting. I could see where that would frustrate a rat.
My thinking parallels yours exactly Snow, but since both spider and HP have stated votes for me I think I can't vote for Spider with you this round. If HP were boss it would create a double majority depending on ghost.
I will check back in the morning before I vote.
Oh yeah. while the first two clues could fit me, the third fails miserably. If I am going to have a warm drink it is Hot Chocolate. I don't drink coffee or tea. HABS and HP should probably try Spider before me, but if not that's okay. I'll play with whoever is left.

Voting HP... I feel like he's trying to keep a low profile... (I guess?!) I don't know.

You're right she probably isn't lying but there is the remote possibility she is (would give a better explanation for her behaviour) and that is in the back of my mind. I also think scrub was right that it was my comments that upset her more than Spid's but there is nothing to do about it now and it should be left alone.
Not really sure who I suspect most of all. I do think it is one of Spider, Scrub or HP. As stated above, I have switched off Spider to scrub, so if I count the votes right, that would create a majority on him.

You have three votes right now on me.
I will vote ghost so i can be cleared.

HABS, when "I", not Scrub, mentions that she was more than likely upset with you more than Spider, I was thinking of the above post that Spider wrote. THIS would explain her reaction, IF Spider is the boss. She was upset with what he had said to her, but more upset with you. This is not being brought up just to talk/gossip/bring up old news, but to point out that she would have little problem reacting the way she did, even if Spider's the boss. She was reacting more because of your comments. That's where I was coming from when I mentioned this at all.
If someone is going to suggest that there is even a remote possibility that Gizzer lied about being the Rat, then you have to come up with a reason. Otherwise, it's all hogwash. There IS NO REASON for her to lie, unless she was trying to help the boss, and if she wasn't the Rat, why would she help the boss! PLUS, even though her actions were not looked upon favorably, and to me, she should have stayed in the game, it's not within her character to lie about her role in a game, especially when there's no need to, and when she knows she's exiting the game on her own terms.
I believe the boss is either Spider or HP. I know they love to play in these games together, and something in a previous round has me thinking. . . . I'll go find it. edit - ok, found what I was looking for but was different than what I had remembered, so I won't even bring it up.

Last round mooshroomdood stated a vote for Ghost. I'm taking it that they actually did vote as stated, and if so, that would clear Ghost, but there is a chance they did not. . . . and they were actually a mandi. If THAT is the case, there's still a chance that Ghost is our boss. I don't have any history in playing with this person, so I can't read them at all. Any thoughts?

I don't know ghost at all so can't say whether or not the clues fit him. I can't say who I voted for in previous rounds but I did state votes for him in the previoud rounds and I'm still here.
Would like to think mushroom voted as he claimed, but since we can't be sure (no confirmation of the vote by him) I'd be Leary of outright clearing ghost.
I would assume that braingle was mandatory, which only left the boss with one optional firing. Was ghost the candidate last round? Would the ghost voters have been the lemmings?

HABS, you nor I are cleared either. I don't think we have any cleared players, except for "maybe" Ghost.
In the back of my mind, I do have to consider that you actually did like Gym Class best in school, and were fine with Dodge Ball. Maybe it was wrong for me to dismiss you as boss, based on this.

Come on, who doesn't like hot chocolate? I do think it's either spid or scrubb, may as well clear one of them

It's rare you can truly dismiss anyone on pysche questions (except when they are written by Har and almost determined to give you away). I think with the rat gone we get 3 chances to win (6-4-3) which is really amazingly generous haha. There's time to clear both Scrub and me, but I wouldnt write HABS off. She has tried to cast doubt on Gizzer being rat (when there is obviously no reason for her to lie) and Ghost being clear....it's possible Shroom didn't vote how he said he did (but especially since he was no the rat) it's reasonable to assume he voted Ghost.

What about HP, you've not mentioned him. Isn't he a possibility?
Scrub is clearly ok with being cleared.
He wrote - You have three votes right now on me.
I will vote ghost so i can be cleared.
With that, I'll have to assume he is less likely the boss, than anyone else, other than myself. I hope you're not wasting a round with this majority on him.

Yeah, he's possible, but everyone else seems to have him as a suspect (which means I don't really need to add anything), HABS seems to be slipping off a few radars just wanna make sure she doesnt slip through for the wrong reasons.
Regarding Scrub: The problem with WTB is the boss has no real way to defend himself, if there is a movement to 'clear' him, he has little choice but to 'welcome' the clear and hope for a miracle or his lack of 'defensiveness' persuades people he is not the boss. Contrast to WWG, where a person IS expected to defend themselves as they risk being eliminated from the game if they get voted for. This only changes in WTB in the last round where getting votes when you are not the boss loses you the game. Though I have been accused of being 'too defensive' in the last round of WTB before, this is NOT meant to be directed at anyone in here, but it makes me laugh, how much lack of situational awareness people have in these games.
Even if Scrubbs isnt the boss, I wouldnt call it a waste, so long as we are sure to get info out of the round. And also, the above you have bolded, wouldnt really be what 'clears' Scrub if he is boss as there are 3 votes on him (HABS-Harry-Spider) his 'vote' cant undo that so he would need one of us to change to have a chance.

Yeah, that's fair, but it's rare for the boss to divert votes and if he does it has to be 'nipped' in the bud. So I guess I can't really refute that other than to say that's not the case this time
HP? Well I guess it's not saying much to suspect him at this point, seeing how there's 5 potential suspects, Ghost seems clear, and my top target is Scrub. That only leaves you, HABS, and HP. The memos just seem more his style than yours or HABS, plus I don't think Gizzer would leave you 'high and dry' like she might for anyone else (though I could have that backwards as she might think youd be the only one to understand).
