    I have confirmation that East Base Gate at P8 will be closed. Do NOT use another USE action on it. I advise one turret use and the other troopers to provide covering fire for the poor saps in the bottom right building.
    O10 still needs to close as well, right? Or are we going to hold it out to let the stragglers come in?

    Also, I think the OP's current play map is outdated.

    O10 South Gate has been called. No one else USE it.

    What's the logic behind gate closers being secret?

    Possible order of actions. If special bug kills occur before player actions, they can cut off the gate closers and we'd be screwed.

    Of course it'd be nice if order of actions are further clarified.

    So what happened to your "suspicious of people supporting you like Lawinator" idea? Seems like you've given up on it quite early.

    I'm suspicious of people voting for me too.

    Oh ok I just mean Lawinator is suspicious as fuck and pushed against a Dunadumb bandwagon despite doing nothing else to pull his own weight in the thread apparently.

    B:L, is there any reason why you want people to confirm their actions with you specifically, as opposed to stating them publically in the thread?

    I am super suspicious because I felt bad about voting in bandwagons to day 1 Duna in like 5 of the past 7 phallas I've played with him. Also suspicious because I have yet to win the game by day 2. Nice.

    !Burnage you lack fighting spirit, and support a more bunched up and easily grenadable village. Actively attempting to make us lose as many outer turrets and gates as possible?

    it is almost as if

    You want us all to die

    Yes, Gumpy, because I have recommended that everybody stay in the small building at the centre of the map.

    Wait, oh, no I haven't. I just think that we shouldn't spread ourselves out too thinly - look how well that turned out for the North and South squads.

    So you'll just let most people attempt to hold the front line while you sip tea and cruise through unharmed? B[

    I'm laying low?!

    Better?

    SlickShughes because I vote at least once for everybody!

    Also, I don't have any leads right now, and I need to do homework. And in order to do that, I need to cut back on phalla a little. But not too much! <3

    just to clarify so I'm careful, the bad thing that happens when you look for something too much in a single tile = Tanker hole, correct?


    edit: Also I take it we need someone to open that inner door gate so people can get out and help the Eastern front?

    Possibly. It seems there are already bug spawning holes. Any ideas how to get them closed, or should I just post that Indiana Jones gif?

    I think it's just "hole", not tanker specific. But yeah, something of the sort.

    I would note that the hole that spawned in the bottom right hut was the result of 1 person looking.

    Which means I got shafted so hard.

    Seems odd especially since you were in a base area, and the other one that got holed also was a perimeter base.

    I just remember the tanker scene in the movie (where it got through to the main grounds). Do we think this RNG'd or there is a logic behind the madness? Or that there are holes potentially everywhere (if one looks hard enough o_O )?

    The OP mentions a list for each tile.

    Having a HOLE be the first item on the list in a BUILDING area? That's just cruel.

    I was thinking of it from a phalla standpoint where you want to keep things balanced rather than match with the theme.

    Because if it's closer to the movie we are going to die.

    Considering the need 1 squad mate to live, it wouldn't surprise me if people played some weird gambit in-case the that they wanted someone away from potential "evil squads"...but didn't entertain the idea they would be swarmed....

    If they don't die thats when I think suspicion should set in o_O

    Possibly poor early planning.

    I'm more suspicious of those single units on E, F, G 4 right by the north gate, where any one of them could open it...

    Hi, thanks for admitting to being evil.

    yes, I recognize evil when I see it. I recognize the hesitant bandwagon joiner that puts out an unsure vote so that he can come back later and claim that he was always unsure.

    I recognize the voter who claims to be looking for 'information' when he knows there is nothing to be gained from it.

    I recognize the person who realizes that when 2 bandwagons are close, you can easily vote for the other person and get away with it.

    I recognize your kind

    In fairness to Egos, this didn't come out of no where, we were talking about it on IRC.

    And I want to defend him because I, being mafia, know he is clean.

    I'd love to see a post of that conversation.
