OK so... help me understand the game better. How could the Discordians have lost?

In the last few rounds?  Only if they were misled or silly.

With 2 spiders and 3 discordians, it COULD have been possible for the Discordians to choose to convert Spider1, while it was Spider2's turn to attack.  In that case, there could have been 2 spider subsumations, leading to 2 Spiders and 1 Discordian.  But the Discordians chose not to convert, and with the Bussing of one of the Spiders, there was no logical way for the spiders to win.

It was neck and neck for awhile. If Khara and Freeky could have converted Jenne (or Nigel, but by then it was pretty late), the MACHINE would have done considerable damage if the CABAL wasn't formed yet.

All in all, a good game.

I might have to play the next game! If only because now I'm interested...

Dude, news papers were a nice touch! That was awesome!

And Nigel, you should join in on the next one. It makes a lot more sense from the beginning, and it's a lot more fun if there are more people involved. This was a particularly good game I thought because I was damn unsure of anyone (minus BDS) up until last night. Plus you get to shoot accusations at your friends as a necessary part of game play, which is fun in and of its self.

Also, I never, ever expected a Spiders game to end in Revolution. It just seemed to statistically unlikely. But then again, I took stats at a community college. Either way, I was glad to be a part of a really unexpected ending.

Out of curiosity, which two spiders knew of each other?

If Luna was a furry, she'd sex humans and scream "BEASTIALITY!" at the top of her lungs at inopportune times.

I like the Luna one. She is a good one.

Yeah, actually, good call Luna-

Thanks to all the other players for making this a really good one. This was even more enjoyable than Spiders II where Roger and I butted heads for, I think a solid 32 hours.

Also, we gotta get that spag Trip Zip on Spiders V. If he's going to vote he might as well be part of the game. I suggest a peer pressure campaign.

I had fun.  Hadn't been subsumed before.  Usually tend to play a bit sneakier than that, even though I was -ahem- incorrect, I think I liked it this way better.

Your logic was pretty good for the round it was posted in. I thought it was sound, and you were correct about me probably being a citizen.

I had two of the spiders figured out, but when I logged in, I was eated.  :argh!:
