SPIDERS: It's not a game.

[Don Coyote]

Well damn, I feel bad thinking Semaj was the Spider.

[Elder Iptuous]

exciting! 
i wonder who Chuck is....
i feel bad for Semaj... is his posting itt verboten, now? 
what might his subsuming indicate?  who did he vote against?

the spider would have had to make its decision before all the votes were in, right?

[Elder Iptuous]

based on the timing?

[Fredfredly ⊂(◉‿◉)つ]

based on, we dont take turns like in previous games everyone attacks each other at once. round one spider bites, we vote discordian discords. all at once.  so the spider would have to choose while we were still voting (and would also have to vote)

TECHNICAL NOTE:

Anyone can make their choice at any time. Special players were notified at post 1 of this thread.  They were in contact with me the entire time.  The order they're carried out, however, is Vote>Spider>Discordian.

If a Spider attacked someone who got voted off, then it would simply be redundant.

In other words, you can't use that as a way to tell.

I think Cudgel is a spider.  He votes to kill Semaj, and can't get enough votes (three votes, was it? Hmm.) and makes an unconvincing show of remorse.

As an aside, what happens if someone is targeted to be subsumed and converted on the same turn?

[LMNO]

Spider comes first.  Discordian fails.

it happens in order.  it's not simultaneous, so i would assume that he is subsumed first and discordian chooses someone else, right?
not just a failure?

Hrm.

Initiative should be randomized, in a perfect world.

are discordians good guys are should we try to kill them too  

[LMNO]

My game.  My rules.  Deal.

[Elder Iptuous]

what?!
why would you do that?  they're the best shot we have at winning....

[Jasper]

Oooh kaaay.

so yeah, I totally think cudgel did it.
