That line from the father's song in Mary Poppins, where he's going on about how nothing can go wrong, in Britain in 1910.  That's about the point I realized the boy was gonna die in a trench.

Incidentally, I am a dead motherfucker.   :lulz:

Also, nobody got subsumed, and Remmy didn't post.  Just saying. (Of course, nobody got converted, either).

TGRR,
Spider chow.

Well, the good thing is is that you still have a 50% chance of not getting subsumed, and it might be risky for the spider to try to go at you again, seeing as how there is one spider left and two Discordians, and it being accomplished in the second round.  I'm just as likely to get subsumed for blocking the Machine.

It is interesting that Rem didn't post. I'll have to go back and look to see who else is suspect. If I recall, 4 people didn't switch their votes from Coyote.

Hmm.  It probably is Remington, but I don't think we should bus him.

Due to it would make for a boring win.

Yes, I am suggesting we TOY with the spiders.

Also, if I'm honest, I was kinda rooting for them.  They're really the underdogs.

Yeah, last game was kinda hard, but even then they lost.

We only made one real mistake.  That's all it took.  The rest was bad luck.

Note:  Yes I am a sore loser.

To be clear, he is claiming to be the discordian. 

I'm going to vote for his claim this time.  If it turns out to we were deceived, we go after Roger.  If that doesn't work, we go after his other guess.

That's my plan anyway.

I think we should bus Siggie, for suggesting that being wrong on a 50-50 split means you vote the discordian off before the other option.  The math doesn't suggest that, and he knows it.

I think Siggie is the spider.

Good point. I think part of this is not having the full amount of people playing.

And, of course, my girlfriend being a spider.

I didn't know much at all when I said that.  Hypothetically, if I was a spider it would be to my advantage to sacrifice another spider to "prove" I was the discordian.  It is a sophisticated lie, but it would be effective if used.  That's all I was thinking, even though that kind of thing isn't Roger's usual M.O.

But maybe I am the spider.  You don't know.  All you know is that A Villager was, and Remington probably is.

Actually, in a game this small, there is precisely zero advantage in the spiders sacrificing one another, especially if no other information is available about a spider.

Also, it occurs to me that LMNO didn't say "the spider didn't attack", he said "nobody was subsumed", so while Remmy may be on thin ice, he's not sinking yet.
