    Alright, let's start wrapping up offers and begin casting votes.

    I'll look into the secret objective format.

  • ElvenshaeElvenshae Registered User regular
    I play Imperial Rider on Brody.

  • MrBodyMrBody Registered User regular
    Imperial Rider- Play after an agenda is revealed. Predict aloud the outcome. You cannot vote. If your prediction is correct, gain 1 victory point.

  • Mojo_JojoMojo_Jojo We are only now beginning to understand the full power and ramifications of sexual intercourse Registered User regular
    Hmm. That makes the 1TG for 7votes much less appealing.

    @brody @Elvenshae I'll need two TG. I don't mind who pays

    Than I'm good with 1 TG for 7 votes.

  • BrodyBrody The Watch The First ShoreRegistered User regular
    @Preda Accepted

    @Mojo_Jojo 1 now, 1 later?

    Secret objective: maybe list secret objective 1, 2, and 3 on the objective track, and put the specific text in the race sheet area?

    I'll need both now.

    If neither of you have it to hand I'll take Creuss' cease fire or my racial card back from elvenshae in lieu of both tg

    I'm with Mojo_Jojo. I'd rather get two goods now, considering the impact of the Imperial Rider. If you buy off Mojo_Jojo's votes with 2 Trade Goods, you shouldn't need my votes, considering your pending deal with Preda. @Brody, go ahead and pull back your order on me and put it towards Mojo_Jojo and I'll sit out this vote.

    @Mojo_Jojo Deal.

    @MrBlarney yeah, I was just hoping too have some options for the next agenda.

    Who votes first?

    I vote first.

    I abstain on this agenda.

    Since Elvenshae is playing the Imperial Rider, the vote moves on to @Mojo_Jojo.

    (Actually, I just checked the map again, and it looks like Creuss should have 7 votes (+1 from listed), Jol-Nar 13 votes (+1), and Letnev 8 (-1). It shouldn't affect the negotiations from this agenda, but it could have some minor effects on the second agenda.)

    7 votes to Brody in exchange for 2tg

    @Preda can have this if he wants it.

  • HedgethornHedgethorn Associate Professor of Historical Hobby Horses In the Lions' DenRegistered User regular
    @Brody to vote.

  • BrodyBrody The Watch The First ShoreRegistered User regular
    I'll abstain.

    Also, @Preda , I'll give you another TG when I refresh to vote for me/abstain. (1 TG now, 1 later).

    FYI - I’ll be on a plane tomorrow and in meetings all week.

    Bonus is that Tuesday dinner is at a board game cafe / bar place.

  • PredaPreda Registered User regular
    Brody, Agreed. 1 TG now, 1 later. Abstain.

    Brody become minister, Elvenshae get 1 VP. (and should remember I didn't get in the way).

  • ElvenshaeElvenshae Registered User regular
    Duly noted.

  • MrBodyMrBody Registered User regular
    Round 5: Agenda Phase

    Minister goes to Brody

    L1z1x- 10 votes
    Creuss- 7 votes
    Jol-Nar- 6 votes
    Arborec- 16 votes
    Letnev- 8 votes
    Winnu- 12 votes

    2nd agenda

    Public Execution (Directive)

    Elect Player

    The elected player discards all his action cards. If they are speaker, pass the speaker token to their left. The elected player cannot vote on any agendas this phase.

    24 hour negotiating period.

  • HedgethornHedgethorn Associate Professor of Historical Hobby Horses In the Lions' DenRegistered User regular
    Well that's not very nice.

  • BrodyBrody The Watch The First ShoreRegistered User regular
    Yeah... no real polite way to pick a target for that, is there.

    Yep, that's a mean one

    Mr Blarney has a full hand of seven if you want to make it hurt
    Brody has the fewest at three if we want it do the least
    HedgethornPreda is speaker if we want to make it rotate to L1z1x

    This where a Havana player would really clean up.

    Hmm. Not really sure what to do here

    Mojo_Jojo on

    Yeah, so this is the one "Elect Player" agenda where you don't want to be the person elected. A correction to Mojo_Jojo's observations: Preda is currently Speaker, so only with targeting them would the Speaker token move to me. I will still advocate Hedgethorn and Mojo_Jojo as potential targets as they are the current VP leaders, though not by much. And if anyone has the "Veto" Action Card, they could also get this Agenda discarded and a new one drawn.

    I thought the plan was to airlock the Cylon?

  • HedgethornHedgethorn Associate Professor of Historical Hobby Horses In the Lions' DenRegistered User regular
    I'm not interested in turning votes on anyone else. I certainly won't pay to have you vote for someone else. But I would certainly like the votes not to be directed at me.

  • ElvenshaeElvenshae Registered User regular
    So, who will pay me to not vote for them? :D

  • ElvenshaeElvenshae Registered User regular
    @MrBlarney @Hedgethorn @Preda @Brody

    I propose we all pick @Mojo_Jojo for the supreme crime of Having A Lot Of Points and a second charge of Accessory to Getting Some More Easily.

    Also, he looked at me funny once.

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    Oh yeah, the other thing that makes this agenda tricky, being the only negative "Elect Player" Agenda is that you need to negotiate with folks in a very different way. Bribes and incentives are very different.

    Also, I realized that with Imperial Rider, Elvenshae is now on the same VP total as Mojo_Jojo and Hedgethorn. And since most of your VPs have come from non-Objective sources, this gives you more flexibility in VP opportunities as we move to the late game, which is a small advantage. My vote is still being decided.

  • BrodyBrody The Watch The First ShoreRegistered User regular
    I don't like this Agenda.

    Veto

    Is that you playing a veto card?

    Veto- After an agenda is revealed, discard that agenda and draw a new one from the deck. That agenda is voted on instead.

    Going to wait on sabotage calls for this one.

  • discriderdiscrider Registered User regular
    :whistle: Some-thing worse.
    Some-thing worse.

  • MrBlarneyMrBlarney Registered User regular
    I'm a little bit surprised at this development, but I won't say no to it.

    No Sabotage.
