Who's The Boss
Game #3214: And Then There Were None
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 5 rounds.
A klaxon sounds, shredding the disturbed sleep that eventually fell upon the frightened 'guests'.
With no idea where they are, and the only understanding that they have is that someone among them wants them all dead.
A fresh instruction was awaiting them, one stepped forward to press play
The voice was again distorted but all too understandable
"Did you sleep well my pets, I hope you won't fret.
Though do comprehend, my mind it is set.
Unless you can find me, your end is assured.
Nothing like this you would have ever endured"
A handwritten note is found on the kitchen table revealing that on the 5th day, a ship is scheduled to come in to take any survivors home, but a mocking post script tell them it will likely be just the murderer and accomplice standing.
The guests eyed each other with expressions ranging from disbelief to open contempt.
How can they find the person responsible? Well that's up to them...
And then there were Ten

I think I'll start the game with a froggy vote.
It's a disease, not a punch line

I'm voting for Bobbi. Do not want to be in a majority in the first round.

There's references to books so it's could be whoviandeb (she's a librarian/likes books i'm guessing). Voting that way. Or someone trying to frame her.
Ooooooh! Nice!
Ooooooh! Nice!
I have a thought but appropriate to wait on it, will come back to it later

Going to safety for HarryPutter, taking the Boss's suggestion and not going to risk things too early in the game .So like Froggy, I don't want to be in a majority in the first round.

Fact remains that the boss and rat will have a talk box, so they will know each other right away. A Mo0 vote is incidental; other than not clearing by votes of more than one on anyone. We need to NOT vote for each other, if you are not jumping on a majority vote.
In other words, I know Spider voted for me, my first instinct might be to vote for him... and that would be bad for the team. Boss can fire two the first round and if both Spider and I are not boss or rat, that would be the logical firing.
I will put a safety vote for mirabill.
Edit... vote confirmed
Second edit... KZ, what is the reference about books? The memo? If so, I might counter and say it doesn't sound like references to books; but whom am I?

Will put safety vote on Pranitha. But, with each round we spend on a safety vote, more of us will "die." It is best to take action and clear others so that we can uncover the boss or the boss will win.
Swiss family Robinson is also a movie... My dad had me watch it a while ago... Forgot most of it.

Well, the swiss family robinson is a book, but it could be a movie, and I thought that Gilligan's Island was a book, but it's a movie so it might not be whoviandeb. I'll vote for froggy to create a mini majority.
Ooooooh! Nice!
Ooooooh! Nice!
I suspect RGW4, but if we are going to attempt to clear froggy then I will vote for him too... But we need more than half of the people to clear him for sure. We must keep in mind that the boss and rat do not vote.
My vote is on froggy. I hope that more people will join so we may clear him. Currently we have 3 votes on froggy. Remember, we must work together to uncover the boss.
Edit: What is Gilligan's Island about?
Editting again... I searched it up, but was unable to find what happened to Gilligan...

It is just a suspicion of mine as the manner in which he speaks seems similar to the boss. I have other thoughts. Mostly it is just a feeling I have, but it is probably incorrect as I am still very new to this game...
If we do not achieve more than 50 prevent against froggy I will likely switch my vote to RGW or a safety vote... I will state it if I do so that we can gather information. But, I sincerely hope we can clear froggy... It is one less person to worry about.

Mirabill, you are welcome to clear me. I am not the boss or the rat. Just do not get into a vote of cancellation... my vote on you and your vote on me... and the entire group still in a vote of Mo0. We could both be fired for not understanding the game.
Froggy... is not a he, she is quite a woman instead! You are showing a little misunderstanding in the players and the game. Froggy is married to Sarge... another player here on Braingle. Now, how does that make you feel?
Smile, that is all I can say. Smile and have fun. First rounds really have little clues. Unless you are the rat and not knowing how to deceive others. Boss would be a bit more quiet about trying to point fingers. If you are the rat, hopefully the boss is a bit more experienced and will let you know in the TB to be careful. You do not want to come out too quickly trying to point fingers to someone so early in the game with nothing more than a hunch.
As of now, I have to put you in that position.
Edit... You do not know who Gilligan is? Bob Denver played Gilligan on Gilligan's island. We just have to sit back and hear the tell, the tell of the mighty sailing man. Who started from this.... and if those selected words in the opening theme SONG do not sound familiar... are you really an American? Or really young? Yes, a show on TV in the early 60's... STILL on TV today in reruns. Sort of a classic. They were rescued! Their entire island floated to safety!
KZ did say it best, Swiss Family Robinson started as a book, but was a movie. Seems like the statements from the boss were about entertainment. Too much emphasis so soon on little info. What kind of cheese do you like Mirabill?

I am really sorry froggy... I didn't realize you were a she... It was just a natural instinct to put he and I never checked... I am really sorry...

Thank you Randy for the glowing comment!
I used to love watching Gilligan's Island growing up and still enjoy watching it in syndication sometime. Some of things they had on that island were beyond believing possible - but we all did!
I have absolutely no problem with being cleared.
Edit: I was typing while you posted, mirabill. No problem and don't worry about it.

Oh damn Round started sooner than I thought. So far, Safety on Aishadit,
Cuz she voted for me, no other reason.

RGW - I totally watched Gilligan reruns as a kid - and that was some years after it was first on the air. That era of TV shows had the most memorable theme songs.

5/10, I'm pretty sure that's a sound majority, 5/8 is a majority, and its rat proof.
Ooooooh! Nice!
Ooooooh! Nice!
No it isnt, 6 is rat proof

Is it out of the total number of players, 10 or 8?
Ooooooh! Nice!
Ooooooh! Nice!
If you are trying to make it rat proof, you have to count those two non votes. I find it highly doubtful the rat would vote or stay in a vote for the boss, especially in round one if the boss had a sizeable majority on them.
I said it before in this game, but we really need to keep it in mind that the boss and the rat have a TB, so they can discuss strategies. It may come to pass that the rat gives up his position and allows the boss to fire him to clear the boss; but again; I doubt that would happen in round one. Losing your advantage has to be well timed. Plus, some players really like to have that win ribbon beside their name; even if there is no count on your status to show how many games you won or lost.
I remember one game where the rat specifically stated a vote for the boss to help push a firing of the boss because she felt the boss was going to be found anyway and she wanted the win. Not possible.
When you Love someone, Love them with all your heart as you never know what can happen today!

So The rat ratted out the boss?
haha. I missed way too much. I will properly join the discussion next round onwards.

Out of 8 votes the boss needs a true majority to be fired , that's 5 votes, we have to rat proof the majority so we need 6 votes to clear someone
