Conversations in the First Period

[Julian]

spies1Gurinder: Hey Julian - I'm Gurinder from Spies. You can call me Gindi. What's up ?
spies1Julian: Hello.
spies1Julian: How's it going today?
spies1Gurinder: I'm good, just trying to get a grasp on the whole concept
spies1Julian: Oh, I agree, quite a toughie, huh?
spies1Gurinder: Yeah, he's definitely got a complex mind
spies1Julian: Have you ever been in a situation like this one before?
spies1Gurinder: Never - but I hope it proves to be fruitful
spies1Julian: It's a bit scary, don't you think?
spies1Gurinder: Yeahh - it's going to be a really tough game
spies1Gurinder: especially the whole spy thing - imprisonment it going to suck
spies1Gurinder: because deserving people could go before threatening people and that's always a letdown
spies1Gurinder: before inactive people*
spies1Gurinder: But, hey, it's what we signed up for
spies1Julian: What do you think of the profiles of our compatriots?
spies1Gurinder: Haha - we are definitely a unique cast - everyones awesome
spies1Gurinder: Who have you spoken to so far?
spies1Julian: You were the first to approach me and now Gerta.
spies1Gurinder: Oh good good
spies1Gurinder: She's a really nice lady
spies1Julian: She has a good spirit. How old are you?
spies1Gurinder: I'm 22
spies1Julian: I'm 26 myself.
spies1Gurinder: *bows*
spies1Gurinder: My elder
spies1Gurinder: haha
spies1Julian: *chuckles*
spies1Julian: Emma is a looker, eh?
spies1Gurinder: haha I suppose
spies1Gurinder: 33 though
spies1Gurinder: loads of interesting character
spies1Gurinder: characters*

[Julian]

spies1Julian: 'ello
spies1Gerta: hello there jules. how're you?
spies1Julian: As bloody well as can be expected. And yourself?
spies1Gerta: fruity.
spies1Julian: *chuckles*
spies1Gerta: have you met anybody yet?
spies1Julian: Gindi approached me but none other so far.
spies1Julian: Have you spoken with anyone?
spies1Gerta: gindi, sage, soraya...
spies1Gerta: please tell me you're not another fucking heiress!
spies1Julian: *laughs* Far from it.
spies1Gerta: what do you do?
spies1Julian: I work for a florist in London.
spies1Gerta: no shit!
spies1Julian: Not a dream job, but it pays the bills.
spies1Gerta: i've been trucking out of Wyoming all my life, me.
spies1Julian: Now, I just hope it's still there when I finally get home.
spies1Gerta: soraya... seems a nice girl but she's never worked.
spies1Julian: *laughs* This is what happens when I come to the States!
spies1Julian: National emergency and a lockdown of all the airports.
spies1Gerta: damn!
spies1Julian: Shows why I left in the first place.
spies1Gerta: well at least your travelled...
spies1Julian: Not as much as I'd like. My pop's from England. I lived there til I was 9 myself.
spies1Julian: What do you think of the others you've spoken to?
spies1Gerta: sage seems a good guy, modelling agent...
spies1Gerta: soroya or soraya or whatever the hell she's called...
spies1Gerta: fuck knows what the hell she's doing here.
spies1Gerta: but we'll get along okay as long as she doesn't shove it in my face.
spies1Julian: Indeed, we do seem an eclectic group.
spies1Julian: Hardly the sorts of people to hold a resistance.
spies1Gerta: speak for yourself!
spies1Gerta: hey, i've worked to get where i am today, and it's been pretty fucking hard, okay?
spies1Julian: Oh, I don't mean any one individually, just the group as a whole!
spies1Julian: An heiress, a modelling agent, a florist's clerk who isn't even fucking American *laughs*
spies1Julian: No offense intended, ma'am.
spies1Gerta: hey, i like you already - "ma'am"!
spies1Gerta: damn one of these young'uns can show a bit of respect.
spies1Julian: *grins*
spies1Julian: Have you ever been married, Gerta?
spies1Gerta: hell no - the road's my companion.
spies1Gerta: and yourself?
spies1Julian: No... Almost, but no.
spies1Gerta: what happened?
spies1Julian: The night that I was going to propose to my girlfriend, she aborted our child. I had no knowledge of this plan.
spies1Gerta: oh shit.
spies1Julian: That's why I moved back to London. I just couldn't stand to be in the States anymore.
spies1Gerta: that is awful.
spies1Julian: *smiles sadly* Life goes on.
spies1Gerta: in the end you gotta get where your going, regardless...
spies1Julian: You have to learn to roll with the punches.
spies1Julian: I like you, Gerta. You have a good way about you.
spies1Gerta: yeah, remember that when it gets time to start getting rid of people.
spies1Julian: *laughs nervously* Well, you're not a spy, are you?
spies1Gerta: hell, boy, me? you better not think so otherwise i'm outta here from the start.
spies1Julian: Oh, no, I didn't really mean to imply that I did.
spies1Julian: It was more of a joke.
spies1Gerta: shit, boy, don't you start getting cocky on me now or i WILL split your head, y'hear me?
spies1Gerta: anyways you'll be around for a while i think.
spies1Julian: I'm sorry, ma'am.
spies1Julian: I get out of touch with American culture sometimes.
spies1Gerta: don't you "culture" me! whassat got to do with anything?
spies1Gerta: anyhow, apology accepted... hell, boy, i get too damn sensitive sometimes...
spies1Julian: *chuckles* I only mean that the Brits have a different sort of humour.
spies1Julian: If I offend, believe me, it is unintentional.
spies1Gerta: shit, man, now YOU'RE getting oversensitive!
spies1Gerta: you'd have to do a great deal to offend me, so don't worry yore head about it.
spies1Julian: *smiles*
spies1Julian: *offers hand for a shake*
spies1Gerta: *takes it*
spies1Gerta: that had better not have been some kind of crazy mating ritual, y'hear? yore too damn young for me.
spies1Julian: Hahahaha!
spies1Julian: No fear, no fear.
spies1Julian: I have a girl back home.
spies1Julian: I do hope she's well.
spies1Gerta: hope she likes flowers.
spies1Gerta: what's she like?
spies1Julian: She's a teller but I really think she's in the wrong line of work because she has a beautiful voice. I'm always pushing her to become a lounge singer or something of the sort. She's quite a pretty little thing.
spies1Julian: Her name is Colleen.
spies1Gerta: irish?
spies1Julian: To some degree, yes.
spies1Julian: We haven't been seeing each other for very long. In fact, it's been more time apart now than we've been together.
spies1Julian: I couldn't blame her if she moved on.
spies1Julian: If London still stands, that is.
spies1Gerta: Hey, i didn't take you for a damn wuss! if you're that fond of her, give her a fucking reason NOT to move on, y'hear?
spies1Julian: If I could return to London, I would.
spies1Julian: It's not fear that is keeping me away.
spies1Gerta: oh yes... the abortion thing.
spies1Julian: No, that was my girlfriend here in the States.
spies1Julian: Colleen is a girl I pretty recently met back in England.
spies1Gerta: damn.
spies1Gerta: anyways i really got to roll.
spies1Gerta: speak to you later.
spies1Julian: Ta!

[Julian]

spies1Julian: *waves*
spies1Dawn: Hi there.
spies1Julian: 'allo.
spies1Dawn: How are you?
spies1Julian: As bloody well as can be expected, I reckon. Yourself?
spies1Dawn: The same.
spies1Julian: I understand from that brief sheet that was posted that you are a florist?
spies1Dawn: I am, although the ruins have made business difficult.
spies1Dawn: And you are a clerk in another shop, it appears.
spies1Julian: If it still stands, yes. *laughs*
spies1Julian: I hear that London has been particularly hard hit.
spies1Dawn: I hear we've all been hit badly.
spies1Dawn: I'm sorry to hear of your loss. How long ago did you move back to England?
spies1Julian: 4 years.
spies1Julian: A little more.
spies1Dawn: It must still be difficult for you.
spies1Julian: I'm no stranger to the States but yes, I do wish to get back home again.
spies1Dawn: Understandable. I take it you no longer have contact with your ex-girlfriend.
spies1Julian: *smiles* And I take it you found my dossier.
spies1Dawn: It's hard to not read it when your photo is such a draw.
spies1Julian: *blushes*
spies1Julian: No, I haven't spoken to her since that night.
spies1Dawn: Again, it's understandable.
spies1Julian: How was your time in the Army Reserves?
spies1Dawn: I actually enjoyed it, at least more than I thought I would. Getting up in the mornings for P.T. was a hassle, but I loved the company I was in and enjoyed my job.
spies1Julian: I briefly considered joining the army.
spies1Julian: Instead I moved.
spies1Julian: *laughs*
spies1Dawn: *laughs* I considered it a way to get out. So I got out.
spies1Julian: But I do find women and firearms to be an irresistable mix. *winks*
spies1Dawn: *blush* Well, we do command attention.
spies1Julian: Among other things.
spies1Julian: So have you spoken to others yet?
spies1Dawn: I'm talking to Soraya, Sage, and Gerta also.
spies1Julian: Oh, and here I thought I was special.
spies1Julian:
spies1Dawn: Aren't you?
spies1Julian: What are your impressions
spies1Dawn: Amusing, Soraya just asked me the same thing.
spies1Dawn: So far, it's basic small talk.
spies1Julian: True.
spies1Dawn: Nothing much to comment on yet. What do you think?
spies1Julian: Gerta seems a bit sensitive but has a clearer head on her shoulders than one would automatically think.
spies1Julian: I do like her though.
spies1Julian: Soraya is, how to put this, well, let's just say that I'm not so sure if still waters run deep. Not just yet.
spies1Dawn: Gerta appeared to be a stone to me. I'm not sure.
spies1Dawn: Soraya makes me slightly suspicious, but I'm not pointing a finger at her or anything.
spies1Julian: Agreed.
spies1Dawn: For someone who is supposedly an heiress with the taste for finer things, she cites the rose as her favorite flower. Trite and overdone, don't you think?
spies1Dawn: I thought she'd go for something more exotic, myself.
spies1Julian: Cleopatra stuffed her mattress with fresh rose petals nightly. Maybe Soraya's tastes run the same?
spies1Dawn: This is valid.
spies1Julian: *smiles*
spies1Julian: So... are you seeing anyone?
spies1Julian: Not that life has been normal since the war.



**************************************************

Bitch. Ignoring my pass.

[Julian]

spies1Julian: 'allo
spies1Sage: hello nice to meet you Julian, how are you?
spies1Julian: As bloody well as can be expected.
spies1Julian: Yourself?
spies1Sage: about the same - as good as anyone can be
spies1Julian: I'm mainly just tired and ready for this bastard war to be over.
spies1Julian: I just want to go home.
spies1Sage: and where is home?
spies1Julian: London
spies1Sage: nice! i've been in London for fashion shows, that's what brought me here
spies1Julian: I do believe your dossier said that you are a modeling agent?
spies1Sage: yup, from Miami Beach. it's rough being so far from home but i'm used to it by now - though i don't think i'll ever be used to this
spies1Julian: I'm just hoping London still stands.
spies1Sage: well when i was last there it was as nice as ever
spies1Julian: When was that?
spies1Sage: just a few days ago. i was actually supposed to go home in a week but now i'm detained for who knows how long - maybe forever
spies1Julian: They let you through to London?
spies1Sage: well i started in London. i was there a while, and i came out here a couple days ago
spies1Julian: That's hopeful news then.
spies1Julian: If only I could leave here now.
spies1Julian: But it doesn't appear that the damn government is planning on letting any outgoing flights leave the terminals.
spies1Sage: yup, we're stuck here for a while. i'm not even involved in this! that's why i wanna do this, so i can finally get back home and back to life
spies1Julian: Have you met with many others yet?
spies1Sage: actually, yea. i've met Soraya, Josh, Marion, Gurinder, Gerta, Dawn, DJ, and now you
spies1Julian: Do you quite like everyone?
spies1Sage: so far, yea. no one's really stuck out too much for me, which i guess makes the game pretty tough haha but everyone's nice thus far
spies1Julian: I'm sure sentiments might change as the numbers start dwindling.
spies1Sage: (sorry, i got distracted) i'm sure as the game progresses things will get more and more intense
spies1Sage: more deceit, manipulation, lies. all sorts of things.
spies1Julian: *laughs* Distracted, I'm sure.
spies1Julian: Dawn is quite a looker, I agree.
spies1Sage: haha, yes, she is very pretty. all the girls are
spies1Julian: Especially that Gerta.
spies1Sage: haha, good one :-P
spies1Sage: i said all the girls, not all the women
spies1Julian: *laughs*
spies1Sage: i've gotta run, later Julian. talk to you later
spies1Julian: Take care, friend.

[Julian]

spies1Josh: hey - what's new?
spies1Julian: Hey, friend. Same shit, different day.
spies1Josh: haha
spies1Julian: *offers hand for a shake* Julian.
spies1Josh: *same* that'd make me Josh
spies1Julian: This is complete shit, don't you think?
spies1Josh: which part? i've got mixed feelings about the whole thing
spies1Julian: The war. Your government. Things getting to a state where the citizens have to band together to form a Resistance.
spies1Josh: ehh. again, everything's a mixed bag. i live in maine, so the closest thing to a war we get here is the government-issue posters
spies1Julian: How'd you get down here then?
spies1Josh: trains still work for the most part, right?
spies1Julian: *shrugs* I had one hell of a time.
spies1Josh: i'm surprised they're letting any foreigners in
spies1Julian: If you're talking about me, I'm trying to get out.
spies1Julian: *laughs*
spies1Josh: haha. unless you've got a lot of money tucked in that pocket, i don't know what the odds of that are
spies1Julian: *fishes out credit cards* Yeah. Just my luck.
spies1Josh: ha
spies1Julian: I do still have dual citizenship, though. I suppose that's why they're not trying to deport me or anything.
spies1Julian: Lucky me, lucky me.
spies1Josh: ha. finally someone with a decent sense of humor
spies1Julian: You mean Soraya just isn't cutting it for you?
spies1Josh: whoa whoa! back up a step
spies1Josh: i've heard it about soraya too, don't worry. but she didn't seem as bad in person
spies1Julian: Oh, I've spoken with her.
spies1Julian: She's not horrible. Just a little bit dry.
spies1Josh: (sorry if i cut out there)
spies1Julian: Yes, terribly rude of you.
spies1Julian: I am offended.
spies1Julian: For shame, for shame.
spies1Josh: ha. anyway, we were on the subject of soraya?
spies1Julian: Yes.
spies1Josh: i liked her. a bit rough around the edges, but decent enough
spies1Josh: i just wouldn't want to see her around someone who isn't of her... well, is there a polite way of saying this?... class.
spies1Julian: I suppose not.
spies1Julian: How old are you, friend?
spies1Josh: 21. what luck that i can "officially" drink as soon as this war business starts up
spies1Julian: *laughs* Now that you can walk over to the corner store and take as much as you'd please!
spies1Josh: ha. i know a thing or two about the government, watched one too many friends get taken away for something simple like that
spies1Julian: I would hope that the government has more to care about these days than simple pilfering of an already looted shop. But then again, who knows. This is America.
spies1Julian: God bless the Bush Administration.
spies1Josh: is he still the president? i stopped keeping track after it stopped mattering.
spies1Julian: It was the last thing standing. I would imagine that at least a good portion of those in power were from it, at the very least.
spies1Josh: i never imagined things to be this bad
spies1Josh: they kept things pretty quiet up north
spies1Julian: Same for Britain. That's why I felt it was safe to come over here.
spies1Julian: Never thought any of this could escalate so quickly.
spies1Josh: terrible that i was able to attend college peacefully while people starve in this city.
spies1Julian: People never seem to care until it hits close to home.
spies1Josh: that seems to be the reason we're in this mess in the first place
spies1Josh: this city, this place... all i'd need is a train back home to finish up my degree, stay there until things quieted down
spies1Julian: So why did you come down here?
spies1Josh: finals ended, summer term started, and i thought i would come and stay for a weekend in the city. never imagined it to be this bad.
spies1Julian: And it seems the only way we can get back to our lives is to take part of this.
spies1Julian: Ah well, I had been complaining to my mother that my life was pretty boring.
spies1Josh: ha. so there weren't newsfeeds there either, even in london?
spies1Julian: When I left London, the situation was normal
spies1Julian: It was while I was in Minnesota that trouble struck
spies1Julian: I heard that I could get an international flight from here. Right. Yeah. Good job, Julian.
spies1Josh: it's a mistake any of us could've made
spies1Julian: Fate. I'll attribute it all to fate.
spies1Josh: i'm always hesitant to. i don't know if i like the feeling of someone else being in control of my lief
spies1Josh: *life.
spies1Julian: See, I'm a strong believer in fate. I believe that fate will take you certain directions and leave you in certain places.
spies1Julian: I don't want to say it's all up to fate. We're not puppets, after all.
spies1Julian: But to a large degree, yes.
spies1Josh: to each his own, anyway
spies1Julian: *nods*
spies1Josh: well, i'm going to see if anyone here has a phone that still works, reassure the family
spies1Josh: pleasure to have met you, julian
spies1Julian: Let me know what you find.
spies1Josh: of course
spies1Julian: I shall see you later.

[Julian]

spies1Soraya: hello
spies1Julian: 'allo
spies1Soraya: how are you
spies1Julian: As bloody well as can be expected. Yourself?
spies1Soraya: I'm doing just fine
spies1Julian: How do you feel about this Resistance uprising?
spies1Soraya: revolting
spies1Soraya: its completley ruined my stay here
spies1Soraya: I was going to leave but endedu p being stuck in the Burg
spies1Julian: Yes, I am in the same boat as you, Miss.
spies1Julian: I desperately want to return home. If home still exists.
spies1Julian: But the airports have been shut off, as you know. And international travel is now out of the question.
spies1Soraya: same here
spies1Soraya: and now were on the brink of life and death
spies1Julian: Being forced to stand up and fight, I agree fully.
spies1Soraya: hopefully those psies don't take us first
spies1Soraya: I mean i don't want to be imprisoned for something i did not do
spies1Julian: Yeah, I know what you mean.
spies1Soraya: saddening
spies1Julian: You should be fine. I'd imagine that the group will only go after people they have evidence on, right?
spies1Soraya: is an exile first?
spies1Soraya: or an imprisonment first?
spies1Julian: Imprisonment, I believe.
spies1Julian: *shakes head* I get the terms confused.
spies1Soraya: and when does that take place?
spies1Julian: I'm not quite sure to be honest with you.
spies1Julian: Gerta is a bit testy.
spies1Julian: Have you spoken to her?
spies1Soraya: yes I have
spies1Soraya: very crude
spies1Soraya: what do you think?
spies1Julian: She's a wee bit sensitive.
spies1Soraya: you think so?
spies1Soraya: what did you say to her?
spies1Julian: Nothing offensive, I assure you.
spies1Soraya: I can tell
spies1Soraya: she sure is gruff
spies1Soraya: she's the only one who comes from the raw kind of background
spies1Julian: I'm sure she has some beneficial skills though.
spies1Soraya: she dosn't think we could be spies
spies1Julian: I don't think that we are spies.
spies1Julian: Do you?
spies1Julian: Do you think that she could be one?
spies1Soraya: to tell you the turth yes
spies1Soraya: or maybe not, I think Marion is a spy
spies1Julian: What makes you think that?
spies1Soraya: I don't know
spies1Soraya: she seems suspiscious
spies1Soraya: I just get a bad vibe from her
spies1Soraya: have you met her?
spies1Julian: Unfortunately not yet.
spies1Soraya: but thats just my opinion
spies1Julian: After I speak to her, I'll let you know my opinion.
spies1Soraya: so do you think anyone is a spy so far?
spies1Julian: Not yet, no. I am keeping my eyes and ears open though.
spies1Soraya: yea I agree
spies1Soraya: DJ has now appeared
spies1Julian: As I noticed. Have you spoken to him yet?
spies1Soraya: I am now
spies1Julian: He seems nice. Eager.
spies1Soraya: hmmm
spies1Julian: I'm sorry, I'm not very talkative today.
spies1Julian: Have a bit of a headache.
spies1Soraya: its quite alrigh

[Julian]

spies1Julian: 'allo
spies1DJ: Hi!
spies1Julian: How are you feeling today?
spies1DJ: I'm feeing about as well as someone could with a crazy war going on around them, lol, how are you?
spies1Julian: Likewise, my friend. Likewise.
spies1Julian: Tired and frusterated and homesick.
spies1DJ: Yeah, the homesick part is deff. the worst of all I hope we can all make it out of this alive
spies1Julian: I concur fully.
spies1Julian: How old are you?
spies1DJ: I'm 22, and I hope to live to see 23! How about you?
spies1Julian: 26.
spies1Julian: I understand that you're a college student.
spies1Julian: Or were, at least.
spies1DJ: Yeah, I actually like school
spies1DJ: Very true, this semester is pretty much shot
spies1Julian: I have a nasty feeling that things will be shot for quite some time, my friend.
spies1DJ: Me too But if we band together we can pull through this. How'd you end up here?
spies1Julian: I came back to the States to visit my mum.
spies1Julian: Then all this happened.
spies1Julian: Just my luck, too.
spies1Julian: I begged and pleaded her to come visit me instead.
spies1Julian: But she just wouldn't have it.
spies1DJ: I'm sorry You would probably both be a lot happier to escape this right now, is your mom okay?
spies1Julian: She's fine. I left her back in Minnesota. I had heard that I could catch international flights here.
spies1Julian: Fat lot of good that did me.
spies1DJ: Oh Minnesota? I'm sorry she has to stay in such a shabby state, I've lived there my whole life
spies1Julian: *laughs* She loves it. I hated it.
spies1Julian: Hated growing up there, hated coming back to visit.
spies1DJ: Yeah I think I know exactly how you feel
spies1Julian: But you make do with what you can.
spies1DJ: Yeah, once you get used to something you can pretty much ignore the boring parts most of the time. I actually miss home now though
spies1Julian: I do as well, I do as well.
spies1Julian: I hope it's still there when I finally get back to it.
spies1DJ: I'm sure it will be, we just have to hold on to hope
spies1Julian: So have you met any others in our group yet?
spies1DJ: I've met a few people today, Josh, Soraya, Gindi, Julian, Sage, and you. I don't know anyone else around here yet though
spies1Julian: Um... I am Julian.
spies1DJ: Oops, I counted you twice, sorry, I am still confusing myself between IMs
spies1Julian: *laughs* Quite alright.
spies1DJ: I owe you one for that, I've got to get a hold of myself!
spies1Julian: So what do you think of our little group?
spies1DJ: Well the people I've met seem pretty friendly, which makes me wonder if the people that haven't shown up yet aren't nice at all
spies1Julian: Oh, I agree.
spies1Julian: But also remember, people always play nice the first day.
spies1DJ: That's very true, they wait to get nasty when you least expect it usually
spies1Julian: I'm sure after a vote or something.... claws might come out.
spies1DJ: Yep, then we're all going to really start being careful about things, I hope nobody gets taken out too hard
spies1Julian: I'm not even going to try and form suspicions yet.
spies1DJ: Me neither, right now the only things being said will probably be some rumor spies started to work on imprisoning somebody, I do hope we get some clues though, we need help
spies1Julian: Otherwise it's all blind luck.
spies1Julian: Which sucks.
spies1DJ: Yeah, blind luck only goes so far before you run into a brick wall
spies1Julian: The numbers are on our side... for now.
spies1Julian: Until we start exiling our own.
spies1Julian: And they start getting rid of us too.
spies1Julian: You know? With 2 leaving a week
spies1DJ: Yeah, that would even things out pretty quick, we really need to hope we can figure out who's who fast
spies1Julian: That one thing did say that the Citizens will have some advantage
spies1DJ: I remember reading that. I guess we'll be able to get our hands on equipment or something too. Anything would be nice, those spies have the advantage of everyone being paranoid right now, or at least paranoid later
spies1Julian: Or both, hahaha
spies1Julian: I am
spies1Julian: I'm petrified of being the first out.
spies1DJ: Lol me too! Whoever goes first won't get to see many developments, and we really are all at risk. I guess whoever seems the easist to pin things on is in trouble
spies1Julian: I've never done something like this before where people watch as it goes on.
spies1Julian: I wonder how that might affect things?
spies1DJ: Yeah, if anyone watching knew somebody in the game that could be bad, but hopefully Sam would figure out they were doing that and chop them out, I
spies1DJ: ve never been watched in a game either, lol
spies1Julian: You mean like know their real identity?
spies1DJ: Lol yeah, I don't think anybody would tell anyone else that though, it's supposed to lead to immediate expulsion from the game
spies1Julian: I wonder if I'll be able to guess anyone.
spies1Julian: *laughs*
spies1Julian: I don't pay attention to people enough.
spies1DJ: Lol me neither! I'll probably be oblivious and be best friends with the three spies the whole game, before they cut my heart out
spies1Julian: You're probably someone I know outside of this game, hahaha
spies1Julian: And I'll have no clue til it's over.
spies1DJ: Lol! We could be best friends and not even know it
spies1Julian: Quite probably.
spies1DJ: I need to go grab a bite to eat really fast, this war has me famished! Lol
spies1Julian: Take care, DJ!
spies1DJ: Thanks, you too, Julian! I will probably be popping back in soon, peace!

[Julian]

spies1Julian: 'ello again.
spies1Sage: hello - how are you?
spies1Julian: Better now. Had a bit of a refresher.
spies1Julian: How're you doing?
spies1Sage: i'm doing alright, bored though
spies1Julian: Yes, I can imagine a bit of that in the days to come.
spies1Sage: haha yup, exactly
spies1Julian: So how many have you spoken with so far?
spies1Sage: a bunch, actually - DJ, you, Josh, Marion, Gerta, Dawn, Soyana, and Gurinder
spies1Sage: what about you
spies1Julian: Actually, all the same save for Marion. I'd just missed her tonight.
spies1Julian: How do you like our little rag-tag band?
spies1Sage: haha it seems alright, a nice group of people
spies1Julian: I agree. This group is pleasant so far. I don't necessarily see things staying the same for long... but it's nice for now.
spies1Julian: What's Marion like?
spies1Sage: i agree - marion's nice, about the same as everyone else. no one's stuck out too much
spies1Sage: everyone's nice, everyone's peachy. that'll change, but until then i'm gonna like everyone
spies1Julian: I wonder how long til someone starts to show their claws. *smiles wryly*
spies1Julian: Or who, for that matter.
spies1Sage: haha very true. i'm very curious as to who's going to draw first blood haha
spies1Julian: Emma is quite a looker.
spies1Sage: she is definitely beautiful. too bad she's married
spies1Julian: *shrugs*
spies1Julian: I wonder how she feels about that little setback.
spies1Julian: *chuckles*
spies1Sage: haha who knows. i haven't even met her first
spies1Julian: Agreed. But then again, most of the women here are rather taking.
spies1Julian: Not that I'm poaching, mind you.
spies1Sage: haha i'm sure
spies1Julian:
spies1Julian: Then again, we are two good looking men who are both bored to tears and need something to pass our time.
spies1Julian:
spies1Sage: haha very true. we do have our own needs
spies1Julian: So what's the ritzy life in Miami Beach like?
spies1Julian: Assuming it still stands.
spies1Sage: well, yes, assuming. it's very busy, very fun, very alive. and very warm, which is great
spies1Julian: Reports that I've been hearing are all over the map and very unreliable.
spies1Julian: Is it as hedonistic as one hears tell of?
spies1Sage: well, depends on what one considers hedonistic
spies1Sage: i love the lifestyle, some don't
spies1Julian: I'm not using hedonistic in a condemning tone, I'm sure you understand.
spies1Julian: More like the Holy Grail.
spies1Sage: haha in that case, yes. it's amazing, i love the town. best town in the world, in my opinion
spies1Julian: I've always wondered, as I've never been there myself. Is a knowledge of Spanish as important as the telly would make you believe?
spies1Sage: if you decide to live in a mostly Spanish area, then it's important. but i live in the "American" part, so i don't need to know it - i get along just fine
spies1Julian: Well, if we get through this in tact, you'll have to play host to me some weekend.
spies1Sage: haha i'll make sure to. and i expect to shack up with you in London for a little bit
spies1Julian: To be sure! While you're there though, I expect you to drag me along to one of your fashion shows.
spies1Julian: I deserve a fresh chance at those ladies!
spies1Sage: haha i could probably hook you up with a model
spies1Julian: Just one?
spies1Julian: Hahahaha!
spies1Sage: hahaha if i wanna keep my business, yes!
spies1Julian: Eh, a few good London ales and we'll see.
spies1Sage: hahaha i guess so
spies1Sage: well i've gotta run, catch ya later!
spies1Julian: Take care, my friend!

[Julian]

spies1Caroline: hey!
spies1Julian: *waves hand*
spies1Julian: 'ello!
spies1Caroline: hello! what's up?
spies1Julian: Same as everyday in this 'ellhole.
spies1Julian: And yourself
spies1Caroline: keeping busy, but you're right, just the same
spies1Julian: That was an odd question.
spies1Caroline: how was it an odd question?
spies1Julian: I mean the one about the color of your hair.
spies1Caroline: yes it was an odd question hah
spies1Caroline: take care- ta ta!
spies1Julian: Ta!

[Julian]

You have just entered room "chat22278616013826781852."
spies1Caroline: and here is Depley's brain child
spies1Depley: Hey, I figured I'd invite us all to chat together.
spies1Depley: I don't know if others are around...
spies1Depley: Don't have everyone's contact yet.
spies1Caroline: Dawn is
spies1Depley: Go ahead and invite others if you so feel like it.
spies1Depley: So Caroline, what color is your hair?
spies1Caroline: my hair? haha
spies1Caroline: brunette
spies1Caroline: and you can call me Caro if you wish
spies1Depley: Sure thing.
spies1Gurinder has entered the room.
spies1Dawn has entered the room.
spies1Caroline: more people
spies1Dawn: Hello, everyone.
spies1Depley: Hey dollface.
spies1Caroline: what is everyone's hair color?
spies1Depley: Oh well I thought it said you had an odd hair color in your profile.
spies1Depley: That's the reason I asked. Heh.
spies1Caroline: oh that I change it? hah
spies1Depley: You do?
spies1Caroline: last shade I tried was blue
spies1Depley: You're like Clementine.
spies1Caroline: but the boss didn't much care of it
spies1Julian: Clementine! Ha!
spies1Depley: Ah, Julian got it..
spies1Caroline: who's clementine?
spies1Julian: A character in a film.
spies1Julian: She had bright blue hair for a time.
spies1Depley: Kate Winslet's character in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
spies1Depley: Great film.. I'd reccomend it to anyone.
spies1Caroline: how'd her boss react?
spies1Julian: It was some bookchain, wasn't it?
spies1Depley: Yes it was. Haha.
spies1Depley: One of those Barnes & Noble types.
spies1Depley: But there wasn't any boss interaction in those scenes. Sadly.
spies1Caroline: I wuold've loved to see how she got around it hah
spies1Caroline: I worked for some corporate prick
spies1Caroline: let me tell you, they even made me change my hair when I dyed it fire engine red
spies1Julian: You should try going abroad, Caro. A bit more lax.
spies1Depley: That is why you don't work for Corporations. Haha.
spies1Caroline: they pay the best, its not my passiona
spies1Depley: Mm. And what is?
spies1Caroline: besdies boys?
spies1Depley: I'm not familiar.
spies1Caroline: you're better off not knowing
spies1Caroline: well children!
spies1Caroline: its been fun
spies1Caroline: but I've got to roll
spies1Dawn: Have a good night, Caro!
spies1Caroline: same to you Dawn
spies1Caroline has left the room.
spies1Gurinder: Hey I'm back!
spies1Gurinder:
spies1Gurinder: *waits for cheers*
spies1Dawn: wb
spies1Dawn: *cheers*
spies1Gurinder:
spies1Depley: How exactly is your named pronounced fancy font?
spies1Depley: *name
spies1Gurinder: Grr - in - durr
spies1Dawn: Gundi is easier.
spies1Gurinder: Gindi*
spies1Depley: Lovely.... It's derived from what may I ask?
spies1Gurinder: Pronounced Gindy lol
spies1Gurinder: India
spies1Depley: Or where ..
spies1Dawn: LOL!
spies1Dawn: Right.
spies1Gurinder:
spies1Dawn: I always forget.
spies1Dawn: *blushes*
spies1Gurinder: On that model site it said Indian or East indian so I did it LOL
spies1Depley: India is such a beatiful country.
spies1Depley: *beautiful
spies1Gurinder: it's very dirty
spies1Gurinder: full of poverty - it's really sad to see
spies1Gurinder: I've been there
spies1Dawn: ...
spies1Dawn: I've never been there.
spies1Depley: It's so interesting how an outsider like myself can see so much beauty in your country..... and how you see the despair.
spies1Gurinder: but yeah the people are really great
spies1Depley: It's quite understandable however.
spies1Gurinder: There are rich areas
spies1Gurinder: but it's so overpopulated
spies1Gurinder: it's just really unfortunate
spies1Depley: I can see how that could be a problem.
spies1Julian: Where are you originally from, Depley?
spies1Depley: Florida.... my ancestry are of Italian and Greek decent.
spies1Depley: Yourself?
spies1Julian: Britain by way of Minnesota.
spies1Julian: I misunderstood what you meant earlier.
spies1Julian: I thought you meant you were an outsider to the States.
spies1Julian: *flicks forehead*
spies1Julian: I'm a bit of a knob sometimes.
spies1Depley: Oh no.. I've been here since birth. *shrug*
spies1Julian: I was born there, raised here, went back there a few years ago.
spies1Depley: Big mistake aye?
spies1Gurinder: so where IS our town in Spies?
spies1Dawn: Lovely question.
spies1Gurinder: Kansas with Sam?
spies1Julian: He left it up to interpretation, I believe.
spies1Julian: What do you all feel?
spies1Gurinder: I hate that -.-
spies1Julian: I was personally thinking of Chicago. It's big enough to draw us all together and it fits the Central Standard Time zone.
spies1Depley: Location isn't a pressing issue in my mind.
spies1Depley: So I'm willing to go along with whatever choice you all come to.
spies1Dawn: Irrelevant to me as well, but Chicago is reasonable.
spies1Depley: Unless anyone decides to violently protest, I'm sure Chicago would make for a good locale.
spies1Julian: I agree, not an important issue, just nice for the continuity issues.
spies1Gurinder: I suppose, but I would predict it would be a very small town
spies1Julian: Otherwise we have some people in Boston, some in San Francisco
spies1Gurinder: small enough to be unnamed
spies1Julian: All of the photos we have on the board are of a larger locale.
spies1Julian: I assumed it was a city.
spies1Depley: Well, while you all play swords, I'm going to go powder my nose.
spies1Depley: Be right back.
spies1Dawn: Wow. Depley goes and the party dies.
spies1Julian: I do believe he has the most spunk out of any of us.
spies1Dawn: I suppose.
spies1Gurinder:
spies1Gurinder: *looks spunky*
spies1Gurinder: You sure
spies1Dawn: Gindi, you are spunky too.
spies1Gurinder:
spies1Julian: Oh, dear, I didn't mean it like that.
spies1Gurinder:
spies1Julian: Of course, Gindi, you are great fun as well!
spies1Dawn: *giggle*
spies1Julian: Now I'm going to beg off for a moment, see if I can find a kipper or something.
spies1Dawn: Oh dear. Now we're getting left by Julian?
spies1Gurinder:
spies1Julian: I've returned, have no fear!
spies1Dawn: Yay!
spies1Julian: I am getting a bit tired, however.
spies1Julian: I may need to beg off again soon.
spies1Dawn: Grr.
spies1Dawn: You're not leaving me, Julian dear.
spies1Julian: You could come with.
spies1Dawn: *laughs* Kind of early for a hookup, isn't it?
spies1Julian: Oh, I wasn't speaking about....
spies1Julian: I was just saying if you needed a place to bunk....
spies1Dawn: That's too bad.
spies1Julian: *laughs*
spies1Dawn: *laughs*
spies1Julian: *smiles*
spies1Depley: Well, I'm certainly happy to see that sexual deviancy can outlast even the harshest of conditions.
spies1Dawn: Deviant? Not me. I just know what I like.
spies1Depley: Oh, I'm just being a bastard.
spies1Julian: Indeed. Nothing deviant about a man and a woman taking care of each other during the... cold.... winter.... night?
spies1Dawn: That's fine by me.
spies1Dawn: *laughs*
spies1Julian: Um....
spies1Depley: Heh
spies1Dawn: Except I think it's hot summer.
spies1Julian: Come back to me on that one.
spies1Julian: I'm sure I can figure something out.
spies1Dawn: lol
spies1Depley: I was going to say it's the Central Air, but I'm sure that luxury isn't at our disposal.
spies1Depley: So I think I'll settle for you're crazy.
spies1Julian: Or desperate.
spies1Julian: That might work as well.
spies1Depley: Haha. Either/Or
spies1Julian: Not that I just admitted that outloud.
spies1Julian:
spies1Dawn: Or just uninterested in being bored.
spies1Depley: You crazy brits
spies1Julian: I like that terminology.
spies1Julian: Uninterested in being bored, I mean.
spies1Dawn:
spies1Depley: Well I figured you were complimenting the lady.
spies1Julian: Yes, naturally.
spies1Depley: Haha.
spies1Julian: Of course.
spies1Julian: Spot on, Depley.
spies1Depley: I tend to be... MR. SPY!
spies1Dawn: *blushes*
spies1Depley: Just kidding...
spies1Julian: You wish.
spies1Julian: So...
spies1Gurinder: Dawn and Julian should hook up florists
spies1Dawn: Ha!
spies1Dawn: He'll have to think of a new way to woo me, since I'll be unimpressed with flowers.
spies1Julian: Sure, Gindy, sure!
spies1Depley: I always found that woman found being insulted as attractive.
spies1Depley: I would definitely try that tactic Jules.
spies1Dawn: I think you're spending too much time with whores.
spies1Depley: Or I'm a wonderful little saboteur.
spies1Dawn: Hard to be good at it when you're that obvious.
spies1Julian: Let's see.
spies1Julian: Dawn.... you.... um.....
spies1Julian: Look like......
spies1Depley: Oh dollface, that was hardly me -trying-.
spies1Julian: I don't know.
spies1Dawn: *laughs*
spies1Dawn: Both of you are entertaining.
spies1Depley: I wouldn't take that as a compliment quite yet.
spies1Depley: After all, watching people getting kicked in the balls is entertaining.
spies1Dawn: Wasn't really meant as one.
spies1Depley: Haha. You're a witty one.
spies1Dawn: Sometimes. Other times I can be quite droll. But I'm in a good mood tonight.
spies1Julian: Well, my friends, I must now retire.
spies1Depley: Bonjour
spies1Dawn: As will I.
spies1Dawn: Have a good night, gentlemen.

[Julian]

spies1Julian: Hiya again.
spies1Dawn: Hello again.
spies1Julian: How has your evening been?
spies1Dawn: It's been fair. Spent it talking to a dear friend. He's been sick today, so I went to the grocery store and bought little things that might settle in his stomach.
spies1Julian: That's very sweet of you.
spies1Julian: You seem to have a heart of gold.
spies1Dawn signed off at 10:52:23 PM.
spies1Dawn signed on at 10:54:10 PM.
spies1Dawn: I'm sorry, my AOL disconnected. Thank you for saying I'm sweet. Really, it has more to do with a long-standing crush! But I'd be happy to take care of him if he needs me to.
spies1Julian: That is very kind. *smiles*
spies1Julian: But it means that I have to find someone new to flirt with now.
spies1Julian: *laughs*
spies1Dawn: *laughs* Impossible. I can flirt and have my heart belong to another.
spies1Dawn: Besides, I doubt he knows that I exist in that manner.
spies1Julian: Well, this may be my lucky day.
spies1Dawn: Haha!
spies1Julian: So what do you think of our fellows?
spies1Dawn: Some of them I adore. Others... suspicious.
spies1Julian: ...May I enquire more?
spies1Dawn: Well, I like you. That one's obvious.
spies1Julian: *grins*
spies1Dawn: I spoke briefly to the UPS guy, and he seemed... clueless. Almost suspiciously so.
spies1Julian: Oh.... Yes, Frank, right?
spies1Dawn: Yes, Frank.
spies1Dawn: I don't know why someone would act so simple unless they wanted us all to believe he was.
spies1Julian: Curious indeed.
spies1Dawn: What are you thinking of our fellows?
spies1Julian: Out of all those I've spoken to, I like everyone so far.
spies1Julian: No one really stands out, but I can understand why.
spies1Dawn: If you stand out as a spy, the citizens want you gone. If you stand out as being too bright or too analytical, the spies want you gone.
spies1Dawn: It's a screw either way! lol
spies1Julian: Exactly.
spies1Julian: You need to find a balance inbetween.
spies1Julian: But we don't even know what we need to be balancing.
spies1Dawn: Exactly.
spies1Dawn: What a mess.
spies1Julian: Speaking of odd... Depley is asking odd questions about the hair.
spies1Julian: He's being going on for it for about 5 minutes now.
spies1Dawn: Interesante.
spies1Dawn: He seems to be very into Caroline.
spies1Julian: I wonder his intentions.
spies1Julian: Have you talked to him much?
spies1Dawn: None, actually. We've never spoken to one another.
spies1Julian: One of his first questions was "What kind of drugs are you into?"
spies1Dawn: Now that's only slightly scary!
spies1Julian: *laughs*
spies1Dawn: What do you make of Gurinder?
spies1Julian: I'm honestly wondering if he has any short term memory loss.
spies1Julian: Every 5 minutes he asks me "What's new?"
spies1Julian: And did he honestly just say that?
spies1Dawn: Wow.
spies1Julian: Again, I wonder about the stupidity level that you mentioned
spies1Dawn: Yeah. I thought flakes were only served for breakfast.
spies1Julian: What do you make of Depley?
spies1Dawn: I think he thinks an awful lot of himself.
spies1Dawn: What about you?
spies1Julian: Concur.
spies1Julian: But at the same time, feels to be more intelligent than he lets on.
spies1Dawn: Like he's too good for conversation that he doesn't care about, and makes it clear.
spies1Julian: I don't know if that means he'll be a good ally or not.
spies1Dawn: Yes, he seems to be something of an intelligence snob.
spies1Julian: I can see things needed to go his way for his cooperation.
spies1Dawn: I'm not certain of his citizenship, so I'm not looking to ally with him anytime soon.
spies1Julian: Is mine going to be an issue?
spies1Dawn: What, the fact that you're a spy?
spies1Julian: I'm a spy?
spies1Dawn: I was teasing.
spies1Julian: I'm about as much of a spy as you are.
spies1Julian: Unless you are.
spies1Julian: Then it would be none at all.
spies1Julian: :-P
spies1Dawn: Good, then we can be allied, since we're just as much of a spy as the other is.
spies1Julian: And because we plan on flirting a fair deal.
spies1Julian: Or at least, I do.
spies1Dawn: Agreed.
spies1Dawn: Flirtation is natural in intense circumstances such as this one.
spies1Julian: The telly would have you believe so, at least.
spies1Julian:
spies1Dawn: I flirted in the Army Reserves. I flirted through school. That's how I get through stressful times.
spies1Julian: And we're both florists.
spies1Julian: As Gindi pointed out to me earlier, that's enough of a basis for him to play matchmaker.
spies1Dawn: So we do what we have to in order to get by.
spies1Dawn: Ha! Did he really?
spies1Julian: ... Not that he set me onto you.
spies1Julian: He did indeed.
spies1Dawn: You're a tad bit younger than I am, aren't you?
spies1Julian: Not by much.
spies1Julian: You were still in diapers when I was born, if that was your question.
spies1Dawn: Ha! Well, that does help.
spies1Julian: Have you had many boyfriends?
spies1Dawn: No. Casual flirtations, but not many boyfriends. I've always been too driven in other areas of life.
spies1Dawn: And girlfriends, for you?
spies1Julian: I suppose this is a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation.
spies1Julian: A fair number, none too serious.
spies1Dawn: No, it isn't damning. I ask bec
spies1Dawn: ause I want an honest answer.
spies1Julian: Is it just me, or does Gindi strike you as maybe a little slow and very high maintainance?
spies1Dawn: I'm not sure about slow, but definitely in need of approval.
spies1Julian: Not slow in a dehabilitating type manner.
spies1Julian: But I don't think I shall be discussing Russian Literature anytime soon with him.
spies1Dawn: Definitely not.
spies1Julian: I do wonder if he's enjoying the show.
spies1Julian: He'll feel responcible.
spies1Julian: *laughs*
spies1Dawn: LOL!
spies1Dawn: Good, let him.
spies1Julian:
spies1Julian: So if you had to vote right now.... who would you vote?
spies1Dawn: This is amusing.
spies1Dawn: Oh boy.
spies1Julian: Just curious about your impressions.
spies1Dawn: If I had to vote right now?>
spies1Julian: Yes.
spies1Dawn: Damn.
spies1Dawn: I have no idea.
spies1Dawn: Frank, probably.
spies1Julian: I would think someone like Gerta possibly.
spies1Julian: She's got a personality yet is unobtrusive.
spies1Dawn: Interesting. I didn't suspect her.
spies1Julian: It's just a wild suspicion.
spies1Julian: I doubt I'll vote that way.
spies1Julian: Just after a good 9 hours of meeting.... my only guess.
spies1Dawn: I have no idea, but I hope to glean more info soon.
spies1Julian: It's another 2 days before anything even happens, right?
spies1Dawn: Yes, another 2 days.
spies1Julian: Hmmm.
spies1Dawn: ?
spies1Julian: Just gathering impressions.
spies1Dawn: Oh? And your impression of me?
spies1Julian: In words my mother would approve of?
spies1Dawn: Not required.
spies1Julian: I'll be a gentleman anyway.
spies1Julian: I would suppose, at this very early date, that you will be the friend I walk away from this situation with, unless of course, one of us dies or you backstab me or something else unpleasant.
spies1Julian: But you do seem to have the best set of assets out of the group thus far.
spies1Julian:
spies1Dawn: Ha! I don't have anything to stab you with, dear.
spies1Dawn: If you backstab me, it will smart.
spies1Julian: Do you like being backstabbed every now and then?
spies1Dawn: Not one bit.
spies1Dawn: I prefer to be stabbed in the front.
spies1Julian: Ah. You believe that true friends stab from the front.
spies1Julian:
spies1Dawn: Yes.
spies1Julian: I suppose we could see about that eventually.
spies1Julian: *bites lip*
spies1Dawn: Oh dear. You ARE a spy. LOL
spies1Dawn: It's okay, I won't tell anyone if you keep me around and use me for your personal ends.
spies1Julian: Personal ends indeed.
spies1Julian:
spies1Dawn: Then it's a deal?
spies1Julian: You do realize this means that you are a spy now.
spies1Dawn: Okay, I can be spy #4.
spies1Julian: And what number does that make me?
spies1Dawn: 1, 2, or 3?
spies1Julian: Eh.... I'm not feeling it.
spies1Dawn: What do you mean?
spies1Julian: 1, 2, or 3.
spies1Julian: How about Spy Number 4.5
spies1Julian: Is that good?
spies1Dawn: Sure. That'll work.
spies1Dawn: But to flat-out answer your concern, I am not a spy.
spies1Julian: And to flat-out answer your accusation, however teasing, I am no spy myself.
spies1Dawn: I am merely teasing.
spies1Julian: As stated, I am as much a spy as you are.
spies1Dawn: I do not believe that you are a spy.
spies1Julian: So am I allowed to take my leave now?
spies1Dawn: Only if you take me with you!
spies1Julian: I'm easy.
spies1Dawn: *laughs* Only to bunk, of course.
spies1Julian: Naturally. I am a gentleman.
spies1Dawn: Then let's leave together and give them something to talk about.
spies1Julian: It's a date.
spies1Dawn: Deal.
spies1Julian: I shall speak to you tomorrow, I'd imagine.
spies1Dawn: You can't bunk with me tonight and not speak to me tomorrow, it's ungentlemanly.
spies1Julian: *laughs* Barring natural disaster.
spies1Dawn: *laughs*
spies1Dawn: Good night, Julian.
spies1Julian: Good night, Dawn.

[Julian]

spies1Julian: 'ello
spies1Depley: Ey Julian
spies1Julian: How're you feeling?
spies1Depley: Pretty good. A tad hungy... how about you?
spies1Julian: Beginnings of a good hangover, but that's standard.
spies1Depley: Haha!
spies1Depley: I had a great weekend myself.
spies1Julian: Good to know that can still happen despite all of this.
spies1Julian: You'll have to take me out next time you go.
spies1Julian: I could use with some public distraction.
spies1Depley: Haha, sure thing.
spies1Depley: What kind of drugs are you into?
spies1Julian: Nothing heavy.
spies1Depley: Cool cool.
spies1Julian: Usually whatever I can get my hands on without paying.
spies1Julian: Cheapskate, I know, but my flat rent's a bugger.
spies1Depley: Ah yes, I'm a propriator for bumming things a lot myself.
spies1Julian: So your dossier said that you're a musician?
spies1Depley: Sure am.
spies1Depley: I need to get my hands on a nice studio though.
spies1Julian: I think you need to hope that nice studios still exist first!
spies1Julian: *laughs*
spies1Depley: Hey, there's got to be a place that isn't fucked up.
spies1Julian: Iowa is probably in tact.
spies1Julian:
spies1Julian: So what do you think of our group?
spies1Depley: Nice and intelligent.
spies1Depley: Quite refreshing from the usual group of socially awkward people I come across.
spies1Julian: Amen to that, brother.
spies1Julian: I only hope that we all remain nice and intelligent.
spies1Julian: I could potentially see things getting ugly.
spies1Depley: Oh yes, It happens in any setting.
spies1Depley: Heh
spies1Julian: Good night, my friend.
spies1Depley: Have a good one.

[Julian]

spies1Gurinder: Congrats!
spies1Julian: You too!
spies1Julian: But you can imagine how scared I was when I saw my face first!
spies1Gurinder: Thanks!1 Yay!!
spies1Gurinder: I know me too!
spies1Gurinder: *gurinder isnt home*
spies1Gurinder: .. damn haha
spies1Julian: Hahaha!
spies1Julian: I have no idea how to vote
spies1Gurinder: me either
spies1Gurinder: Gerta had a "Vote for Andrew" campaign earlier
spies1Gurinder: but, now that he's gone
spies1Gurinder: it's going to be tougher

[Julian]

spies1Julian: Hello again, ma'am
spies1Gerta: hello!
spies1Gerta: seen the news?
spies1Julian: Yep, yep
spies1Julian: And the game has begun.
spies1Gerta: just to let you know, five of us were talking about exiling Andrew not two hours ago.
spies1Gerta: and now he's gone.
spies1Gerta: and i came up with that idea myself, without talking to anybody else, so it looks like either somebody else has had exactly the same reasoning as me...
spies1Gerta: or somebody's doing a nice little frame-up job.
spies1Julian: Who was all in that group of five?
spies1Gerta: josh, me, Damien,
spies1Gerta: Caroline and Ginji.
spies1Gerta: any ideas there?
spies1Julian: Well, it seems that some of the others are thinking about a vote for Damien
spies1Gerta: why damien?
spies1Julian: He's arguably the most inactive out of the group
spies1Julian: and personally
spies1Julian: I think that could be a pretty good alibi
spies1Gerta: i'm not sure though, mercedes is more inactive, and damien right now would be my LAST choice fo those in the room.
spies1Gerta: i think we'd be taking out an ally.
spies1Julian: Mercedes has double the posts of Damien
spies1Gerta: yes, but has anybody talked to her?
spies1Julian: She was on earlier
spies1Julian: I dunno
spies1Julian: I don't know how much weight the "inactives" theory holds
spies1Julian: but it seems to be what the public is thinking
spies1Gerta: oh damn, she was on?
spies1Gerta: well in that case...
spies1Julian: I really don't know
spies1Julian: I just wanted to get you up to speed on the public thought
spies1Gerta: who is "the public"?
spies1Gerta: i mean who have you actually talked to about htis?
spies1Julian: Sage mostly
spies1Julian: he's telling me that's the way people seem to be leaning
spies1Gerta: ok
spies1Gerta: je-sus, this is so far from what i'm used to...
spies1Julian: Hahaha! Tell me about it!
spies1Julian: I live a quiet little life!
spies1Gerta: so do i. it's just the road, the CB radio, and me...
spies1Julian: Awww, CB radio.
spies1Julian: I've always thought those were pretty ace.
spies1Gerta: ok, here's what i'm going to do.
spies1Gerta: if i get enough support from others, i'll go with the plan
spies1Gerta: but NOBODY is going to make Gerta Dowling do what she don't want to do, ok?
spies1Gerta: so you better not be bullshitting me here.
spies1Julian: Cross my heart
spies1Gerta: ok, i'm staying online but going to speak to others... speak to you soon.
spies1Gerta: ok, i'm going to go away and think on this. see you soon.
spies1Julian: okay!

[Julian]

spies1Julian: Hey man
spies1Sage: hey - how are ya?
spies1Julian: Somewhat relieved
spies1Julian: Seeing my face first was quite a shock
spies1Sage: i'm sure - being at that party must've been heart-pounding
spies1Sage: how are you feeling after that whole scene?
spies1Julian: Pretty nervous
spies1Julian: Hahaha the first few days were so fun and light
spies1Julian: Nothing to worry about
spies1Sage: well i think that's all over - it's game time
spies1Julian: And then the eliminations start.
spies1Julian: I have no idea how to vote
spies1Sage: nor do i.
spies1Sage: i think the Spies have it right though: take out the inactives, get rid of the dead weight, then start thinking suspects
spies1Julian: It'll be fairer for the rest of us at least
spies1Sage: yup. i think the benefit in taking out inactives is that we keep ourselves, cut out the dead weight, and up the odds of finding the Spies
spies1Julian: So who do you think the next most inactive is?
spies1Julian: I haven't seen Damien much at all
spies1Sage: i think Damien is the only other person to still be MIA
spies1Julian: Ugh, this is so frusterating
spies1Julian: I hate first votes
spies1Sage: same! who knows what to do with them
spies1Sage: how do you feel the vote should go?
spies1Julian: I really have no idea
spies1Julian: But I'm willing to go along with what others think is a good plan
spies1Julian: And what you say about the others make sense
spies1Sage: what others? the inactives?
spies1Julian: Yeah
spies1Julian: Sorry, moment of non-clarity
spies1Sage: haha it's fine. i personally feel that if an active were to be voted out, it should be Damien - i think he's been the least active
spies1Julian: I think he borders the closest of inactivity out of the group, right?
spies1Julian: closest to*
spies1Sage: i would definitely agree with that.
spies1Sage: everyone's posted at least once on the board, but he's the only person i haven't heard of socializing
spies1Julian: And really, when you think about it
spies1Julian: That's a nearly perfect alibi
spies1Sage: true, but i think that a better term for that alibi is being under the radar. he's truly inactive, and i don't think a Spy would actually be as inactive as he's been - it makes him too much of an easy target
spies1Julian: Unless he knew the others were taking care of it?
spies1Sage: i doubt the Spies would go out of their way to keep an inactive if that's the way the tide was turning. it would make them stick out too much
spies1Julian: Wishful thinking I guess
spies1Julian: hahaha
spies1Sage: haha :-P must be
spies1Julian: Is that the way you are leaning?
spies1Sage: i think so, yes. it's the easiest option in a game where right now there are hardly any
spies1Julian: I think it makes sense
spies1Sage: that's cool i would submit my vote for Damien right now haha but i'd wanna make sure more people would go along with that
spies1Sage: i don't wanna stick out too much! lol:-P
spies1Julian: oh i totally know what you mean!
spies1Julian: well, i'll vote with you at least
spies1Julian: That's a start, I suppose
spies1Julian: Have you talked to Monica much?
spies1Sage: i've actually been talking to her a little bit tonight
spies1Julian: What do you think of her?
spies1Sage: she's very...inquisitive. she's nice, but i guess it's the reporter aspect of her coming out :-P
spies1Julian: Inquisitive, yes, nice, yes.
spies1Julian: But she doesn't really..... answer questions.
spies1Julian: I haven't really gotten a thing from her
spies1Julian: While she's gotten my views on a few topics
spies1Sage: i think that just comes with her package. my worry though is that since she's gaining all this knowledge about others - what is she going to do with it?
spies1Julian: Right
spies1Sage: but so far i don't have anything against her
spies1Julian: I think it'll be good to keep an eye on her
spies1Sage: i agree
spies1Sage: alright well i've gotta run - catch ya later
spies1Julian: Okay
spies1Julian: I'm gonna vote Damien
spies1Julian: I can always change it tomorrow if something happens
spies1Julian: Catch you before the exile, I hope!
spies1Sage: yup, very true. i'll do the same thing
spies1Sage: yup, hopefully! later man

[Julian]

spies1Julian: Hey man
spies1Josh: hi! have you heard yet?
spies1Josh: well, you were there
spies1Josh: how could you not have?
spies1Julian: *weakly chuckles*
spies1Julian: That was really fucking scary.
spies1Josh: i wouldn't doubt it
spies1Julian: At least Andrew's someone who hasn't shown his face much
spies1Julian: They did us that courtest at least
spies1Josh: very true.
spies1Julian: courtesy
spies1Josh: Gerta and Gindi had mentioned exiling him just an hour ago
spies1Josh: and now he's gone
spies1Julian: Who else is on the list?
spies1Julian: Is there even a list?
spies1Josh: the list of people on board for that
spies1Josh: or people to exile?
spies1Julian: Exile I meant
spies1Julian: Names being tossed around
spies1Josh: oh, sorry. went back to reading
spies1Josh: i haven't heard much at all
spies1Josh: and the open voting makes it worse
spies1Josh: because unless the person you vote is exiled, you have someone coming after you from that point on
spies1Julian: So it would be best to be in the majority
spies1Josh: very true
spies1Josh: i have a confession to make. between the two of us, i would hope
spies1Julian: naturally
spies1Josh: i don't like the Gerty and Gurinder thing at all.
spies1Josh: they had been talking, apparently
spies1Josh: before we joined them
spies1Josh: and Gerty suggested exiling Andrew since we hadn't met him
spies1Josh: and Gurinder was eager to jump on board.
spies1Josh: now, being a citizen, any majority would be nice to jump on.
spies1Josh: but if Gurinder was... i'll say it, a spy... hypothetically... it would be in his best interests to support exiling Andrew. Andrew would be imprisoned anyway, and it would create chaos if the plans had already been spread before the imprisonment
spies1Josh: i'm sure i'm just being paranoid
spies1Josh: but something struck a chord with me on that.
spies1Julian: I totally see what you mean
spies1Julian: And also like
spies1Julian: The plan to exile Andrew just because he hasn't been around doesn't make a ton of sense
spies1Julian: I mean, yes, inactives should go, etc etc
spies1Josh: exactly. but the spies would be the most active ones
spies1Julian: But our job isn't to weed out the inactives.
spies1Julian: Right.
spies1Josh: so either, or both, or neither of them could be spies. but i have a sinking feeling about Gurinder especially
spies1Julian: He does play dumb
spies1Julian: I mean, really dumb
spies1Josh: and he's always around
spies1Josh: i would mention this to other people, spread the word. but i wanted to make sure it made sense to someone vaguely intelligent first.
spies1Julian: Thank you
spies1Julian: Do you want to possibly make a chat?
spies1Julian: Call a few certain people into it?
spies1Josh: of course. of the others here?
spies1Josh: DJ doesn't strike me as having all of his marbles. may be an act, may not be.
spies1Josh: Monica and Sage are wildcards to me
spies1Julian: Monica is pretty intelligent
spies1Josh: i haven't talked much to either
spies1Julian: I'm talking to her now, she seems to have it together
spies1Josh: do you want to talk to Monica first?
spies1Julian: I'll field her out
spies1Josh: sure
spies1Julian: Sage is pushing the "vote the inactives" thing of me
spies1Julian: I'm not sure what to make of that
spies1Josh: i don't like that at all.
spies1Julian: spies1Sage: i think the Spies have it right though: take out the inactives, get rid of the dead weight, then start thinking suspects
spies1Josh: yes! that's a strategy for the spies!
spies1Josh: not us!
spies1Josh: so i wouldn't mention anything to sage
spies1Julian: I'll see along what lines DJ is thinking
spies1Josh: spies1Josh (8:37:54 PM): what do you make of all this? i'm still scratching my head
spies1Gurinder (8:38:00 PM): I have no idea
spies1Gurinder (8:38:03 PM): I'm stupid
spies1Gurinder (8:38:04 PM): lmao
spies1Josh signed off at 8:38:38 PM.
spies1Josh signed on at 8:38:46 PM.
spies1Josh: (sorry)
spies1Julian: (shit happens)
spies1Josh: (you're going to have to save this - i just lost it)
spies1Julian: I'll PM it to you if you want
spies1Josh: sure
spies1Josh: did you get what gurinder said?
spies1Julian: Yes
spies1Josh: so he's definitely playing dumb.
spies1Josh: this is all so complicated.
spies1Julian: I think Monica would talk to us
spies1Julian: Give me a little more
spies1Julian: But we'll see
spies1Josh: i'm working on DJ
spies1Julian: I am too
spies1Julian: Hahaha
spies1Josh: yeah. i don't like sage's explanation at all
spies1Josh: it took him three minutes to give me a vague opinion
spies1Josh: and then all sage said was "i'm not really sure! i think that the Spies want to eliminate inactives first, which is good for us active Citizens."
spies1Julian: Which isn't at all
spies1Julian: Doesn't matter if they're inactive or not, you want as many Citizens in the game as possible
spies1Josh: exactly!
spies1Julian: Ugh
spies1Julian: People are so stupid
spies1Josh: people are very stupid.
spies1Julian: How's the talking with Monica going?
spies1Julian: What's your feel on her?
spies1Josh: monica obviously isn't dumb
spies1Josh: she just doesn't really get it
spies1Josh: one minute.
spies1Josh is away at 8:49:04 PM.
spies1Josh returned at 8:52:58 PM.
spies1Josh: okay, i'm here
spies1Josh: what's your feel on monica
spies1Julian: I have no idea.
spies1Julian: She's definately intelligent
spies1Julian: Trying to hide it
spies1Josh: like, we have a clear logical path
spies1Josh: that makes much more sense
spies1Josh: trying to hide intelligence
spies1Julian: And she seems more worried about being viewed as an inactive than anything else
spies1Josh: "Well the only way for the non-spies to win is to have as many votes as we can"
spies1Josh: how can i refute that clearly?
spies1Julian: That's what she said?
spies1Josh: yeah
spies1Josh: my response: "but if we only focus on inactives, and spies only focus on citizens, no one is going after the spies"
spies1Julian: "As many votes for the right people"
spies1Julian: I mean, I understand their logic here
spies1Julian: However flawed
spies1Josh: it makes sense
spies1Josh: i just think ours is better
spies1Julian: I'm almost wondering if it'll just be easier to go with them this time
spies1Julian: Than to try and stir the pot so early
spies1Julian: and possibly be targeted ourselves
spies1Josh: hmm
spies1Julian: I mean, Sage wants to go after inactives, Monica wants to go after inactives, Gerta wants to go after inactives, DJ is playing with himself in the corner
spies1Julian: You know?
spies1Josh: haha! i like that someone else sees that in DJ
spies1Josh: well, not the playing around
spies1Josh: more the idiocy
spies1Julian: Six of one, half-dozen of another
spies1Josh: very true
spies1Julian: Why do dumb people dominate?
spies1Julian: Seriously, they're everywhere
spies1Josh: because they are everywhere.
spies1Josh: ha
spies1Josh: there are too many of them
spies1Josh: Monica seems to be waffling
spies1Josh: so... should we push the Gurinder point or slide with the majority? or throw votes away to avoid suspicion
spies1Julian: I don't know
spies1Julian: But the safest thing to do
spies1Julian: is probably slide with the majority... it's so early and people will be looking for excuses to vote
spies1Julian: I just don't like it because it's something so obviously good for their plan
spies1Josh: neither do i
spies1Josh: monica wants to tell me her vote
spies1Josh: but is waiting until tomorrow
spies1Josh: she says in case i'm a spy, she doesn't want to give me time to react
spies1Julian: Let me show you this
spies1Julian: spies1Julian: Who all have you talked to?
spies1Monica: Gurinder, DJ, Josh, Sage, and you
spies1Julian: What do you think of them?
spies1Monica: I have kind of spy-ish vibes from one of them
spies1Monica: But it's way too early to say
spies1Julian: Haha to say in general or to say to me?
spies1Monica: LOL both
spies1Monica: Who's to say you're not a spy, you know?
spies1Josh: (have you shown me yet?)
spies1Julian: just c/p it
spies1Julian: you must not have gotten it
spies1Julian: it's a clip of me and Monica
spies1Josh: ohh
spies1Josh: yeah c/p it again
spies1Julian: spies1Julian: Who all have you talked to?
spies1Monica: Gurinder, DJ, Josh, Sage, and you
spies1Julian: What do you think of them?
spies1Monica: I have kind of spy-ish vibes from one of them
spies1Monica: But it's way too early to say
spies1Julian: Haha to say in general or to say to me?
spies1Monica: LOL both
spies1Monica: Who's to say you're not a spy, you know?
spies1Julian: get it that time?
spies1Josh: she promised me she wouldn't vote for me
spies1Josh: and i promised her the same
spies1Julian: Our conversation has kinda drifted
spies1Julian: but I think she was distracted
spies1Josh: anyway, i have to be going
spies1Josh: we'll talk before the vote, i hope
spies1Julian: If not
spies1Julian: what do you think you'll do?
spies1Josh: a random vote
spies1Julian: I think right now it'll be better to stick in the majority
spies1Josh: maybe damien
spies1Josh: that's what everyone is saying
spies1Josh: anyway, i'll talk to you later
spies1Julian: We'll talk tomorrow
spies1Julian: Be safe!
spies1Josh: you too!

[Julian]

spies1Julian: Hey there.
spies1DJ: Hi Julian, have to read the first inprisonment yet?
spies1Julian: I'm up to speed.
spies1DJ: Well it looks like they at least took somebody that didn't appear to be too active
spies1Julian: I know, I was really scared about that
spies1Julian: I just didn't want to be the first gone
spies1DJ: Me neither, seeing different people's faces through the story leading up to it had me terrified, lol
spies1Julian: Hahaha! I was shocked to find my face first!
spies1Julian: I nearly had a heartattack! Hahahaha!
spies1DJ: Lol yeah! I thought it was either you or Monica and that's why he did that, I'm glad it wasn't though
spies1Julian: Haha me too. Me too.
spies1DJ: Unfortunately now we got to choose to get rid of somebody too
spies1Julian: What are you thinking?
spies1DJ: Lol I'm trying not to! Well it definitely can't be any of the people who haven't been very active, that's for sure
spies1Julian: Yeah, I can see that
spies1DJ: The spies have been pretty darn careful so far, the first day I got sorta suspicious over Soraya because she said something about Gerta, but now that I think about it, a heiress and a truck driver aren't a perfect pair, lol
spies1Julian: It could be all smoke and mirrors
spies1DJ: Lol yeah, there could be a thousand levels of deception going on every day
spies1Julian: If the voting was right now, who do you think you might go for?
spies1DJ: Well unfortunately, the only two people I've even had a second of suspicions for are Sage and Soraya, S must be a bad letter, LOL, but they haven't even given much. What about you?
spies1Julian: Well, I see two different lines of thinking
spies1Julian: This is just between us, right?
spies1DJ: Lol definitely yes, my lips are sealed
spies1Julian: Well, a) Damien could be likely
spies1Julian: He hasn't been around much at all which is a nearly perfect alibi
spies1Julian: You know?
spies1DJ: Lol true, I haven't even spoken with him yet
spies1Julian: So I could go in that direction
spies1Julian: But on the other hand
spies1Julian: And this is just between us, right?
spies1DJ: Lol yes
spies1Julian: I think Gindy's playing dumb
spies1Julian: Like overly so
spies1Julian: And he never talks about the game or anything, he's just this happy go lucky kind of guy
spies1Julian: Which seems weird
spies1DJ: Lol very true, he's been about the same way with me, too, that could be a lead
spies1Julian: I mean, have you talked to him much?
spies1Julian: Yeah
spies1Julian: Doesn't he seem totally scatterbrained?
spies1DJ: Lol a bit, yes
spies1DJ: The big question being is that enough to go on? We don't really have much else out there, so far.
spies1Julian: That I don't know
spies1Julian: But I think for this first vote
spies1Julian: we won't have much to go on at all
spies1DJ: Lol you've got that right, we're blind as bats
spies1Julian: Are you going to cast your vote soon or wait for the deadline, do you think?
spies1DJ: Oh deff. the deadline, lol
spies1DJ: I hope somebody uncovers the goods by then
spies1Julian: If there's any goods to be uncovered
spies1Julian: lol
spies1DJ: Lol, yep, that will be the tricky part
spies1Julian: Sage seems to really want to vote for Damien
spies1DJ: Hmm, because he's been one of the least active people out in the open?
spies1Julian: I suppose
spies1DJ: That could make sense, we should probably stick together, whatever it is we do
spies1Julian: Would you vote for Damien?
spies1DJ: Possibly, if there haven't been any new leads by tomorrow I could lean that way
spies1Julian: Do you think you'll be around before the vote?
spies1DJ: Lol deff. yes, I should be on most the late afternoon

[Julian]

spies1Emma: hey julian, this is emma, nice to meet ya!
spies1Julian: Hi!
spies1Emma: how are you doing?
spies1Julian: Well, all things considered. And yourself?
spies1Emma: can't complain. I mean, if someone has to be locked up better someone else than me
spies1Emma: congrats on making it past by the way!
spies1Julian: There's just this damn vote now
spies1Julian: Thanks!
spies1Julian: And you as well
spies1Emma: thanks
spies1Emma: I know, blah
spies1Emma: have you given it any thought yet?
spies1Julian: Yes and no
spies1Julian: Hahaha, I have no idea what to do
spies1Julian: People are throwing Damien's name around
spies1Emma: damien, hmm hold on I have to check who that is haha
spies1Emma: oh yep I
spies1Julian: good looking guy
spies1Emma: I've never talked to him yet
spies1Julian: The one who lost his wife, supposedly
spies1Julian: Me neither
spies1Julian: I don't think many have at all, tell you the truth
spies1Emma: its always easiest to vote for the people who just aren't around
spies1Emma: I've actually had a hard time catching people online until today too. i was getting worried!
spies1Julian: Well, I wasn't planning on voting for you at any rate
spies1Julian: You're far too pretty
spies1Emma:
spies1Emma: hehe, you're rather pretty yourself!
spies1Emma: gerta and frank may've been hit by the ugly stick once or twice, but everyone else is pretty attractive
spies1Julian: Give or take, yes
spies1Julian: And thank you
spies1Emma: hehe no problem!
spies1Emma: had you talked to andrew at all before he was locked up?
spies1Julian: No, unfortunately
spies1Julian: I never saw him around
spies1Emma: bummer. why do you think they chose him to lock up of all the people?
spies1Julian: Oh, sorry
spies1Julian: A friend interrupted me
spies1Julian: I really have no idea
spies1Emma: thats ok, no worries!
spies1Emma: me neither, it didn't make much sense to me, because wouldn't you want to knock out someone more active in the resistance?
spies1Emma: oh well
spies1Julian: Who do you think you might vote for?
spies1Emma: well you said people may vote for damien...and I'd be fine with that to be honest
spies1Julian: as far as I know, about 7 or 8 people are going to
spies1Julian: Now, I haven't heard this from 7 or 8 people
spies1Julian: but people tell me that others are going to also
spies1Emma: sage mentioned someone to me...but it may have been andrew I think? and hes gone anyways so what does that matter
spies1Emma: oh really?
spies1Emma: I'd be fine with damien...like I said, better him than me!
spies1Emma: and if he isn't going to be around to help us, why bother?
spies1Julian: Exactly
spies1Emma: have you seen any spy-like behavior yet?
spies1Emma: I've been too busy trying to get to know people personally...so hard to even tell!
spies1Julian: No, nothing really at all.
spies1Julian: Frusterating as hell.
spies1Julian: I'm trying to get a read on people
spies1Emma: I know
spies1Julian: and it's just bloody impossible
spies1Emma: haha "bloody"
spies1Emma: I love british guys
spies1Julian:
spies1Julian: :-D
spies1Emma: they are great
spies1Emma: I wish I had a british accent
spies1Julian: Be thankful you don't have a British woman's body
spies1Julian: You are much too beautiful to be one of us.
spies1Emma: I know right?
spies1Emma:
spies1Emma: or teeth. haha, just kidding!
spies1Julian: Hahaha!
spies1Julian: Well, I come from a good line.
spies1Julian: And I was raised in America, so dentistry was a big thing for me
spies1Emma: phew!
spies1Emma: where in America?
spies1Julian: Minnesota
spies1Emma: never been to be honest
spies1Julian: You're not missing much
spies1Emma: once I got away from my old life I tried my best to forget it all
spies1Julian: That's why I moved back to London
spies1Emma: london is lovely!
spies1Emma: everyone is so "fit"
spies1Emma: not lots of "false" people
spies1Emma: haha and thats the extent of my britishisms
spies1Julian: Quite charming!
spies1Julian: Why, you'd blend in in a heartbeat!
spies1Emma: *is a spy*
spies1Emma: hahaha just kidding!
spies1Julian: Ha!
spies1Julian: Best be careful, darling!
spies1Julian: People might get the wrong idea
spies1Emma:
spies1Emma: haha
spies1Emma: I'd be a horrible spy, I'm far too fabulous for it
spies1Julian: And my dashing good looks call too much attention to me
spies1Emma: naturally
spies1Emma: its a tough life we lead
spies1Emma: alright my fellow beauty, I think I'm off for some well-deserved beauty rest after the harrowing events of tonight
spies1Emma: hopefully I'll talk to you tomorrow!
spies1Julian: Sleep well
spies1Julian: And if I don't talk to you before hand
spies1Julian: I am planning on voting Damien
spies1Julian: If that helps you at all
spies1Emma: yes I think I will too
spies1Emma: no need in making any enemies at this point, ya know?
spies1Emma: anyhow, night!

[Julian]

spies1Gurinder: Hey Jules
spies1Gurinder: (if it's okay if I call you that)
spies1Julian: Hi Gindi
spies1Julian: That's fine
spies1Gurinder: Has there been much talk about the exiling>?
spies1Julian: Somewhat
spies1Julian: the only person to throw a name out so far
spies1Julian: is Sage
spies1Julian: and that's for Damien
spies1Gurinder: So Sage says Damien?
spies1Julian: yeah
spies1Gurinder: that's about it?
spies1Gurinder: Damiens cool I guess - I'd personally rather vote for someone like Mercedes who has yet to come on AIM
spies1Julian: Oh, I think she was on earlier
spies1Gurinder: Damien was on earlier for quite a while - I guess you all missed him - but I'll go with the group concensus
spies1Gurinder: oh really? Darn I missed her!
spies1Julian: Yeah
spies1Julian: If I hear anything else, I'll let you know
spies1Julian: Do the same for me?
spies1Gurinder: Thanks
spies1Gurinder: Oh definitely
spies1Julian: Who else would you think of voting for?
spies1Julian: Just wondering
spies1Gurinder: Well I was pretty set on Mercedes if she didn't come online - but since she has
spies1Gurinder: I'm pretty much lost
spies1Gurinder: Oh wait, Emma hasn't come on either has she?
spies1Julian: Actually, no, I don't think so
spies1Gurinder: Monica mentioned talk about the chatroom discussing exiing Andrew
spies1Gurinder: What's going on there lol?
spies1Julian: Apparently earlier tonight, before the Inprisonment
spies1Julian: Gerta was rounding a group up to exile Andrew
spies1Gurinder: Yep
spies1Gurinder: *raises hand* lol
spies1Julian: You were there?
spies1Gurinder: Yeahh
spies1Gurinder: Everyone that was online was invited
spies1Julian: I hadn't gotten names of the invitees
spies1Julian: Anyway, I suppose that's what she was talking about
spies1Gurinder: Oh I can give you them
spies1Gurinder: although Monica's gotten me stumped if Josh was there or not
spies1Gurinder: I''m starting to remember and I don't think he was
spies1Gurinder: but he may have heard the plan from Gerta
spies1Julian: So the plan was to vote Andrew out?
spies1Gurinder: Yeah - GErta was going to tell everyone to vote him off
spies1Gurinder: then i went offline
spies1Gurinder: and came online to the imprisonment where he was imprisoned
spies1Gurinder: which kind of sucked cuz now that whole plan isout the door
spies1Julian: Right
spies1Julian: I would be so pissed hahaha
spies1Julian: What about Frank, have you talked to him much at all yet?
spies1Gurinder: yeah i talked to him earlier
spies1Gurinder: and yesterday
spies1Gurinder: not much conversation
spies1Julian: I haven't seen him much at all
spies1Gurinder: yeah he comes on very little
spies1Gurinder: This is so weird lol I've been suspected??
spies1Julian: I haven't heard anyone seriously throw around your name
spies1Julian: Has anyone thrown around mine?
spies1Gurinder: oh i havent heard it ever lol
spies1Gurinder: but monica said that ive been heavily considered cuz my name was on the list
spies1Gurinder: Soraya, Damien, Caroline, Gerta, myself, and give or take Josh (i dont think he was there tho)
spies1Julian: you mean the people in that meeting?
spies1Gurinder: yeahh
spies1Gurinder: but the 5 of us were for sure there
spies1Gurinder: sorry its like im ignoring you
spies1Gurinder: im discussing it with monica
spies1Julian: No, it's okay, I'm talking to an emotional friend right now
spies1Julian: But I'm still here
spies1Julian: What is she saying?
spies1Gurinder: just figuring out this whole chat ordeal
spies1Julian: What does she think abou tit?

spies1Gurinder:
spies1Julian: *claps hand on shoulder*
spies1Julian: That's my man!
spies1Gurinder:

Auto response from spies1Gurinder: I am away from my computer right now.

spies1Julian: She went quiet.
Auto response from spies1Gurinder: I am away from my computer right now.

spies1Gurinder: yeah.. odd..

[Julian]

spies1Monica: Hey
spies1Julian: Hi
spies1Julian: Were you as shocked as I was to see our faces first?
spies1Monica: When I saw our pictures at the top, I thought one of us had been imprisoned!
spies1Julian: Hahaha! Thank God but still!
spies1Monica: I wonder why Andrew
spies1Monica: Did you talk to him at all?
spies1Julian: No, I never even saw him on
spies1Julian: Not that I was on all the time
spies1Julian: But I think I was around during peak hours, mostly
spies1Monica: I haven't checked yet - did he post at all?
spies1Julian: I don't know and I can't check
spies1Julian: the members button is gone
spies1Monica: What members button?
spies1Julian: On the site page, there was a button where you go to to look at all the members and it showed their posts
spies1Julian: Sam took that away
spies1Julian: I mean, not what they had posted
spies1Julian: But the number they had
spies1Monica: Oh man that would've been a great tool to use
spies1Monica: To get a better guess of who was posting in the spies forum
spies1Monica: Oh but post count is still under names
spies1Julian: That's probably why he removed it
spies1Julian: Damn.
spies1Julian: But unless Andrew posted somewhere where we could see, there's no way of getting to his name, really.
spies1Monica: Any idea who you're voting to exile tomorrow?
spies1Julian: Not really, no.
spies1Julian: I'm talking to a few others about it
spies1Monica: Yeah, it's hard at this point
spies1Julian: But no plans are being spoken of
spies1Julian: Anything you're thinking?
spies1Monica: So far I've only spoken to you and 2 others
spies1Monica: I have some ideas just based on psychological stuff
spies1Monica: But no real "feels"
spies1Julian: I have spoken to a lot of people but it was mostly "getting to know you" stuff.
spies1Monica: Out of curiosity who haven't you spoken to?
spies1Julian: In person: Emma, Frank, Gigi, Marion, and Mercedes
spies1Julian: but I know that they've been around
spies1Julian: we just missed each other
spies1Monica: So Andrew and I were the only people who weren't "active" before now?
spies1Julian: Oh, Damien, I forgot Damien
spies1Julian: No, some showed up late
spies1Julian: And you were posting on the board before many others
spies1Monica: Yes
spies1Julian: I don't think you're seen as an inactive
spies1Julian: I don't see you as an inactive
spies1Monica: Good!
spies1Monica: Cause imprisoning Andrew kind of says that they want the inactive players out first, you know?
spies1Julian: Oh, yeah, I agree
spies1Julian: But I think others seem more inactive anyway
spies1Monica: Like who?
spies1Julian: I mean, Damien is all but non-existant
spies1Monica: It's so easy to double-guess that
spies1Monica: He's non-existant cause his fellow spies are taking care of everything?
spies1Monica: Or because he's just busy?
spies1Julian: Or both?
spies1Monica: Or because he doesn't think he has to worry because there are what, 12 other non-spies to choose from?
spies1Monica: Yeah, or both
spies1Julian: Who all have you talked to?
spies1Monica: Gurinder, DJ, Josh, Sage, and you
spies1Julian: What do you think of them?
spies1Monica: I have kind of spy-ish vibes from one of them
spies1Monica: But it's way too early to say
spies1Julian: Haha to say in general or to say to me?
spies1Monica: LOL both
spies1Monica: Who's to say you're not a spy, you know?
spies1Julian: True :-
spies1Julian:
spies1Monica: How do I change my smileys?
spies1Monica: This one is kind of creepy
spies1Monica:
spies1Julian: Oh I hate that one
spies1Monica: Kind of "insane asylum"ish, you know?
spies1Julian: Go to Change Preferences
spies1Julian: It's through Edit Options
spies1Julian: And then it's called something like AIM expressions
spies1Monica: Thanks
spies1Monica: LOL
spies1Monica: It's so creepy
spies1Julian: No problem
spies1Monica: Yours looks like a British flag?
spies1Julian: Yep
spies1Julian: I'm British myself
spies1Julian: From London
spies1Monica: How charming!
spies1Monica: I heard a British person won some show yesterday
spies1Monica: Reality TV thing
spies1Julian: Well, I'm kinda British
spies1Monica: The Donald Trump one
spies1Julian: hahahaha
spies1Julian: Born over there, raised over here, moved back over there
spies1Julian: So I'm really more of a Yank than anything else
spies1Julian: But we'll just pretend that's not true
spies1Monica: Do you have an accent?
spies1Julian: Sometimes
spies1Julian: Hahaha!
spies1Julian: It slips in and out
spies1Julian: I have more of an American accent than anything else
spies1Julian: That helps with getting dates though
spies1Monica: Having an American accent helps? With British people?
spies1Julian: The girls love it.
spies1Monica: Color me surprised
spies1Julian: Well, some of them
spies1Julian: The easy ones at least
spies1Monica: LOL
spies1Julian: And what got you into television journalism?
spies1Julian: I wish we'd had more time before this
spies1Julian: Gotten to meet everyone properly
spies1Monica: Whoa sorry I lost track of this IM
spies1Monica: Sorry
spies1Julian: It happens
spies1Monica: Yeah I know what you mean with the "more time" thing
spies1Monica: On the other hand, now that the game's really started, it's pushed people to play
spies1Monica: And exiling is tomorrow
spies1Monica: Any thoughts?
spies1Julian: I'm hearing Damien mentioned a lot.
spies1Julian: Sage seems to want to go for him.
spies1Monica: What do you think?
spies1Julian: I think that it's a good a plan as any right now.
spies1Julian: No one else has any yet
spies1Monica: I sort of do
spies1Julian: And if Damien is truly inactive
spies1Monica: But think about it
spies1Monica: The exiling is the only time the citizens have to exile a spy
spies1Julian: Right
spies1Monica: So the best possible move for the citizens is to exile a spy
spies1Julian: I also agree with that
spies1Monica: Would an inactive player be a spy?
spies1Monica: Possibly
spies1Monica: Andrew wasn't
spies1Julian: Possibly
spies1Julian: I could see it in his case
spies1Julian: Because there are 2 others out there
spies1Julian: and I mean
spies1Julian: being inactive... that could be a pretty good cover
spies1Monica: I agree, to an extent
spies1Monica: Here's how I see it though
spies1Monica: I can see 2 reasons as to why Andrew was imprisoned
spies1Monica: The big one is that he was inactive
spies1Monica: Everyone's noticed
spies1Monica: Which would start a trend of exiling inactive players
spies1Monica: Or at least, making a statement that inactive players should be out of the game
spies1Monica: With me so far?
spies1Julian: Yes
spies1Monica: So it would be fairly easy to convince everyone that inactive players should be out of the game
spies1Monica: And if that's what they're thinking, then I doubt they would make one of their own an inactive player
spies1Monica: Cause it's easier for us to point to Damien now and say "Let's exile him, he's inactive"
spies1Julian: Unless they had no choice
spies1Julian: I mean, they can't control when he's around
spies1Julian: I wouldn't think
spies1Monica: Why no choice? Why not imprison you, or me, or Mercedes or DJ or anyone else?
spies1Julian: But that's just me playing Devil's Advocate
spies1Julian: Yeah, I get what you're saying
spies1Julian: Nevermind
spies1Monica: So basically what I"m trying to say is
spies1Monica: I doubt that Damien is a spy
spies1Julian: I have my reservations myself
spies1Julian: But I also
spies1Julian: Am afraid of causing too many waves this early
spies1Monica: I know!
spies1Monica: I really did say too much just now didn't I
spies1Monica: I'll have to watch that
spies1Julian: Because at this point, people are looking for excuses for the vote
spies1Julian: Not to me
spies1Julian: I'm on the same wavelength as you
spies1Julian: But I'd be careful around Sage, for one
spies1Julian: He's really really pushing this Damien vote
spies1Monica: I think so too
spies1Monica: Which is why I said what I did
spies1Monica: Because I think it would be a mistake to go with that vote
spies1Julian: I'll be back in 2 minutes
spies1Julian: Hold that thought
spies1Julian: Back, I apologize
spies1Monica: LOL no problem
spies1Monica: Real life calls
spies1Monica: Far more important
spies1Julian: My thoughts are such a jumble right now
spies1Julian: I also don't truly think Damien is a spy, even though I could see how
spies1Julian: And who knows, he very well might be
spies1Julian: But, even if based on how hard Sage is pushing this Damien vote
spies1Julian: I am wary of it
spies1Julian: (And I just realized how funny that really is, talking about a Damien vote on 6.6.06
spies1Monica: Oh wow I totally forgot about "damien"!!!
spies1Monica: That's awesome
spies1Julian: But I also understand how risky it is to stand out so early in the game
spies1Monica: Yeah sometimes it's best to play under the radar
spies1Monica: I mean, if either one of us were to show say, Sage, we'd be in trouble for sure
spies1Julian: I have no intentions of doing so
spies1Julian: I hope you don't either
spies1Monica: No way
spies1Monica: I'd only show him if he was a fellow spy
spies1Monica: And I"m not a spy
spies1Monica: So I'd only be getting myself in trouble by showing him
spies1Julian: Well, we're both wary about this Damien vote. Ideally, what would you do?
spies1Monica: "Hey Sage, please vote me out now" is what it would say
spies1Monica: I think you already know what I would do ideally
spies1Julian: Sage?
spies1Monica:
spies1Monica: Sorry for the creepy smiley, but you get what it means
spies1Julian: Hahaha
spies1Julian: You know, DJ was suspicious of Sage
spies1Monica: I think so too
spies1Monica: That would be 3 votes for Sage
spies1Julian: 3/17
spies1Monica: You talking to him?
spies1Julian: that's a scary number
spies1Monica: I think either you or I should talk to him
spies1Monica: Because if he is a spy
spies1Monica: Then he knows that we've talked
spies1Monica: You know?
spies1Monica: If we both come at him at the same time with the same idea
spies1Julian: We were talking, but it's kind of lapsed
spies1Monica: OK I'll talk to him
spies1Julian: I think you should be the one to do it, besides
spies1Julian: I already told him about my whole "Don't want to stand out" thing
spies1Monica: If you're a spy, you're doing a good job.
spies1Monica: LOL
spies1Julian: Oh, gee, thanks
spies1Julian: Um, likewise?
spies1Monica: Haha no it's not me
spies1Monica: I have far more fun solving puzzles than making them
spies1Julian: Likewise
spies1Julian: I think that's possibly why we're seeing past the, dare I say it, sheep?
spies1Monica: What do you mean?
spies1Julian: I dunno, it seems like Sage is really really gathering support for this inactives thing
spies1Julian: like, Gerta wanted to get rid of Andrew and such
spies1Julian: and Gindi was all on board for that too
spies1Julian: and it just seems so stupid
spies1Monica: Here's the catch though:
spies1Monica: Gerta says that Damien is active
spies1Monica: She says she talked to him for HOURS today
spies1Julian: I highly doubt that
spies1Julian: She doesn't talk to anyone for hours
spies1Julian: Our conversations last 10 minutes if we're lucky
spies1Monica: Yeah that's how fast ours was
spies1Monica: But she insisted that she saw Damien
spies1Julian: Hmmm
spies1Julian: The question is, how trustworthy is she?
spies1Monica: Hahahaha
spies1Monica: NO ONE is trustworthy
spies1Julian: Agreed
spies1Julian: But there are degrees, surely
spies1Monica: She and I spoke briefly
spies1Monica: But
spies1Monica: Nearly everything she said was contradicted by someone else
spies1Monica: Won't say who
spies1Monica: I think one of them is lying
spies1Julian: Lol I like your discretion
spies1Julian: You really are a reporter
spies1Monica: Thanks!
spies1Monica: Well their stories can be confirmed/denied by others
spies1Monica: So I'll ask around
spies1Monica: Want to see something worse than the wink?
spies1Monica: The frown
spies1Monica:
spies1Julian: Those ones just scare me in general
spies1Monica: Is the board down for you?
spies1Monica: I can't access it
spies1Julian: No, I'm fine
spies1Monica: Funny. My internet's down but AIM is still working.
spies1Julian: That happens to me occasionally
spies1Julian: My old internet service
spies1Monica: Any idea how to fix it?
spies1Julian: Used to go down like once a week
spies1Julian: AIM would work
spies1Julian: but nothing else, it was very odd
spies1Julian: If rebooting doesn't do the trick, I'm not sure
spies1Monica: I'm not ready to reboot yet
spies1Monica: This is getting good
spies1Julian: Haha are you talking to Josh?
spies1Julian: I mean DJ
spies1Julian: wow, that was awkward
spies1Julian: And all these damn names.... I have two real life friends named Josh and DJ
spies1Julian: Which is totally throwing me off
spies1Monica: I don't think I have any friends with these names - well, Josh obviously
spies1Monica: But the others? Nope
spies1Julian: I know a Josh, DJ, Monica, Frank, Emma, Caroline, Dawn
spies1Monica: I'm sure the Monica you know is brilliant, talented, and witty
spies1Monica: Certain names have certain standards LOL
spies1Julian: Then I won't break your conventions
spies1Monica: Haha oh no
spies1Julian: Have you spoken to DJ?
spies1Monica: A bit
spies1Julian: Felt him out at all?
spies1Monica: I like him
spies1Julian: I do too
spies1Julian: Very enthusiastic
spies1Monica: Yeah
spies1Monica: I think he'd vote for Sage
spies1Monica: So OK
spies1Julian: Is there more or was the OK the end of the thought?
spies1Monica: OK was the end
spies1Julian:
spies1Monica: I like Gurinder too
spies1Monica: The kid's a thinker
spies1Julian: I like him as well
spies1Monica: ::Julian scribbles: After we imprison Monica, we go after Gurinder next"
spies1Julian: Oh whatever
spies1Julian: Hahaha
spies1Monica: LOL
spies1Julian: (Sorry, just dealing with an emotional friend right now)
spies1Monica: Oh OK I'll talk to you later
spies1Monica: Take care
spies1Julian: No, it's cool
spies1Julian: I'm okay
spies1Julian: It's mostly him venting
spies1Monica: Real friends come first over fictional spies
spies1Julian: I'm staying on though, if you have another thought come or something, send it over
spies1Monica: OK
spies1Monica: From talking with him I learned that he can't keep anything quiet
spies1Monica: LOL
spies1Julian: Hahaha It appears that way
spies1Julian: I think I'm following
spies1Julian: lol
spies1Julian: He has quite a bit of info on the two
spies1Monica: He's been thinking a lot about it, and I asked him a lot of questions
spies1Julian: What do you think about it?
spies1Monica: I think the only real way to know is to exile one of them
spies1Monica: Whether to do it now or later is the question
spies1Monica: What do you think?
spies1Julian: I agree with you
spies1Julian: But getting the support now might be tough
spies1Monica: Yeah
spies1Monica: I also haven't talked to Soraya
spies1Julian: I have
spies1Julian: What he says about her general character is true
spies1Julian: But she never had much interest in talking to me
spies1Julian: Which could be worrysome

[Julian]

You have just entered room "hottieswithbodies."
spies1Monica has entered the room.
spies1Monica: ROFL
spies1Gurinder: Weclome
spies1Monica: Hotties with bodies
spies1Gurinder: *BWAHAHAHAHA*
spies1Monica: I don't have a body yet
spies1Monica: Just a face and a riding hat
spies1Gurinder: haha!
spies1Julian: Hahaha!
spies1Monica: Apparently I ride horses.
spies1Julian: I have a shoulder blade.
spies1Julian: Bare and sexy.
spies1Gurinder: ok
spies1Gurinder: so julian
spies1Gurinder: basically this is what me and mon where discussing
spies1Gurinder: ill copy and paste things ive said to mon since i explained them so well to her
spies1Julian: Okay
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: anyways - but wouldn't it be dumb for any of us that discussed exiling andrew to end up imprisoning him if any of us in the chat were spies?
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: Cuz then the exiling would take a target off the spies since Andrew wasn't a spy - imprisoning Andrew
spies1Gurinder: makes the vote more sporadic and puts a target on anyone - including spies - so it would be stupid in my opiniuon in any of us were spies to imprison andrew
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: I know 100% that Damien, Soraya, Caroline, Gerta, and myself were there
spies1Gurinder: so basically
spies1Gurinder: josh MAYBE was there before caro and damien where
spies1Gurinder: were*
spies1Gurinder: im not 100% sure but josh cud be telling the truth
spies1Gurinder: i think he is
spies1Gurinder: and something i HOPE you both won't repeat- just a speculation that has skimpy proof but makes sense is this:
spies1Julian: Okay
spies1Julian: I'm following
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: well i was pretty sure if he wasnt imprisoned he was gunna get exiled
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: so if i was a spy why would i completely throw the plan out the window and make myself a target
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: but what gerta said made me wonder about the fact that 2 spies could have been in the chat
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: but i hate jumping to conclusions - im always wrong haha
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: well didnt she say that soraya wasnt in the chat?
spies1Gurinder: spies1Monica: Twicespies1Gurinder: and earlier she kept saying "soraya CERTAINLY IS NOT a spy"
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: and if she said that... she could totally be bailing soraya out of a situation
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: and gerta was really "ANDREW OUT NOW" so if she foiled her own plans (she was the person who made the plan up) wouldnt it kind of take her off hte posibility list, like it is for me
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: but see, that proof isnt too goodspies1Gurinder: but it makes me wonder since she said that
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: spies1Gerta : Soraya is CERTAINLY not.spies1Gurinder: thats her quote
spies1Monica: Sorry, back
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: spies1Soraya : I think its too obvious for Gerta to be a spy
spies1Julian: Wow
spies1Gurinder: spies1Monica: But why are you convinced that TWO of them are spies?spies1Gurinder: im not convinced
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: but it just made me curious that gerta said soraya wasnt in there
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: and both of the said the other couldnt have been a spy around the same time because it was "too obvious"
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: but if she left her out - it doesnt really exclude her from the posibility that shes trying to keep soraya off the radar
spies1Gurinder: spies1Monica: If they were both spies, it would make sense for Gerta not to mention Soraya
spies1Julian: You know, Gerta did bring Soraya up very early the first time we talked about her
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: im just saying its weird with how gerta and soraya keep protecting eachother - its a very very rough guess but its my best one at the moment
spies1Gurinder: spies1Monica: It's a good hunch <-- Thank you doll
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: but where would we find the supportersspies1Gurinder: soraya is HIGHLY active - like no one woudl vote for her
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: getting votes for gerta would be easy - no one seems to like her
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: soraya thinks franks a spy
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: at least she told me that -another reason she could be cuz she was like pushing it on me that he was
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: well he acts kind of...stupidspies1Gurinder: like "i dont know huh huh"spies1Gurinder: and isnt very social - you'd NEVER think he's a spy
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: but gerta said she thinks he's pretty obviousspies1Gurinder: and soraya strongly feels hes a spy
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: but soraya and gerta have both been very active in the "vote for so and so" thing and "so and so is a spy".. i guess tahts what a spy would be doing
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: to turn citizens on eachotherspies1Gurinder: which i guess is kind of adding more proof...
spies1Gurinder: that was our convo in a nutshell
spies1Julian: Yeah
spies1Julian: Wow
spies1Gurinder: now - this is purely speculation
spies1Gurinder: i dont have much proof
spies1Gurinder: but thats just been my personal opinion lately
spies1Gurinder: lots of ties between the two
spies1Gurinder: gerta simply could have forgotten to say soraya was on the list
spies1Julian: Also, something to think about
spies1Julian: Just a thought
spies1Julian: Maybe, if one or more of the spies were in the room
spies1Julian: They did Andrew anyway just to cause chaos
spies1Gurinder: yeah exactly
spies1Gurinder: or they already had andrew planned
spies1Julian: Or, also
spies1Julian: Andrew was their plan anyway and they called that chat together
spies1Julian: To suggest Andrew
spies1Julian: so that when he was exiled, it made them look less suspicious!
spies1Gurinder: exactly
spies1Gurinder: cuz soraya and gerta were on at the same time
spies1Julian: That's brilliant!
spies1Gurinder: so they had time to think about it
spies1Gurinder: but it could all be coincidence
spies1Gurinder: and id feel so foolish if they were citizens
spies1Gurinder: i personally think gerta is less likely a spy then soraya is
spies1Gurinder: ive thot soraya was a spy since like day 1 or 2
spies1Gurinder: its just... the questions she asked me all the time
spies1Gurinder: what i thot of ppl
spies1Gurinder: what i new
spies1Gurinder: and then the info she forced on me
spies1Gurinder: and gerta has bashed soraya
spies1Gurinder: but, all the more likely to make them look like spies
spies1Gurinder: but ive still not talked to mercedes yet
spies1Gurinder: but she has promised to be more active
spies1Gurinder: but how are we gunna get support?
spies1Gurinder: if we go around saying to vote gerta or soraya
spies1Gurinder: the 3rrd spy which we dont know of
spies1Gurinder: has the chance to imprison us next round
spies1Gurinder: and if we get both girls out, the third spy could be a little bastard
spies1Gurinder: BUT, the third spy will refuse to vote gerta or soraya wouldn't he ?
spies1Gurinder: ooo im feeling smart
spies1Gurinder: ok you guys talk - im rambling on to myself
spies1Monica: Sorry - being attacked by family
spies1Monica: OK let me scroll up and read
spies1Monica: So sorry
spies1Julian: I really like your idea
spies1Julian: It makes so much sense
spies1Gurinder: oh golly gee
spies1Gurinder: for once
spies1Gurinder: i understand myself
spies1Gurinder: and for once
spies1Gurinder: i feel smart lmao
spies1Julian: I mean, for what we have to go on right now
spies1Gurinder: yeah
spies1Gurinder: and if we are right... that would be so cool
spies1Julian: The only way to know is to exile someone
spies1Gurinder: yeah
spies1Julian: I'm just worried about getting the votes this round to do it
spies1Gurinder: i personally think chances are way higher of soraya being a spy tho
spies1Gurinder: because if this whole gerta thing is just a coincidencce
spies1Gurinder: i still feel like the way shes talking to me and stuff
spies1Gurinder: makes her a possible spy
spies1Gurinder: getting votes for gerta will be a lot easier
spies1Gurinder: caroline doesnt like her
spies1Gurinder: its up to you guys
spies1Gurinder: if we go around telling people to vote for so and so
spies1Gurinder: we could shoot ourselves in the foot from dumb imprisonment
spies1Julian: Another thing to think about
spies1Julian: If we try and get Gerta out and fail
spies1Julian: That could be really bad for us because she'll seek revenge
spies1Gurinder: so... maybe we should bring it up casually or something? and try stay out of danger and have otherpeople take the idea and run with it for us
spies1Gurinder: exactly
spies1Julian: I'm wondering if we have enough time to do it this round
spies1Gurinder: well i wont be online again until tomorrow at about.. 6 EASTERN
spies1Gurinder: thats 5 CST
spies1Julian: right
spies1Gurinder: i can stay up late tonight probably tho
spies1Julian: Probably about the same for me
spies1Julian: But I don't know how many more will come on tonight
spies1Gurinder: yeah exactly
spies1Monica: I was on late last night
spies1Monica: No one was around
spies1Gurinder: same
spies1Gurinder: i was on sooo late
spies1Monica: Really?
spies1Gurinder: and no one was on
spies1Gurinder: i was on away tho
spies1Gurinder: anjd i came back
spies1Julian: Here's my thinking
spies1Gurinder: and no one was ther
spies1Monica: Oh I didn't see your name at all
spies1Gurinder: oh well i probably got off jus tbefore you came on
spies1Monica: BRB
spies1Gurinder: k
spies1Julian: The last I talked to people, there still seemed to be a lot of people going for Damien
spies1Julian: Why, I don't know
spies1Julian: Sage's plan or something
spies1Julian: If we had to, we could vote for Damien this round, stay under the rader
spies1Julian: radar*
spies1Gurinder: yah
spies1Gurinder: so basically
spies1Gurinder: us 3... alliance?
spies1Julian: Hope to God that one of us doesn't get imprisoned
spies1Julian: (and if we don't draw attention to ourselves, we should be fine)
spies1Julian: Then try to raise the votes for Gerta or Soraya next round?
spies1Gurinder: the spies are going to eliminate their threats
spies1Gurinder: so we need to stay non-threatning
spies1Julian: Pulling a coup this late might do exactly the opposite of that
spies1Gurinder: yah i guess
spies1Gurinder: but how are we going to raise votes for them
spies1Gurinder: without being caught by the 3rd spyt
spies1Gurinder: spy*
spies1Monica: Back!
spies1Gurinder: wb
spies1Gurinder: if the 3rd spy finds out
spies1Gurinder: or gerta or soraya for that matter (if they are infact spies)
spies1Monica: Well I figure that since it's the first vote, either it will be unanimous or it will be in group divisions
spies1Gurinder: imprisonment is a sure thing for us
spies1Gurinder: all we can be sure of is that the spies will not vote eachother
spies1Monica: The spies will probably vote as a group
spies1Monica: It's unanimous, right?
spies1Gurinder: or, sporadic, so people dont think they are spies
spies1Gurinder: or "together"
spies1Monica: If the vote's anonymous, there's no reason to not vote together
spies1Gurinder: the vote is public
spies1Monica: Whoa it is?
spies1Gurinder: who voted who is revealed
spies1Gurinder: yep
spies1Julian: Yeah.
spies1Monica: Okay that's a good thing
spies1Gurinder: the reasons aren't shown
spies1Julian: They're not?
spies1Gurinder: nope
spies1Gurinder: just the vote and who it was by
spies1Monica: Good good
spies1Julian: Oh, and Gindi
spies1Julian: to what you said before
spies1Julian: I'm in.
spies1Gurinder:
spies1Gurinder: yay
spies1Monica: For voting for Greta?
spies1Gurinder: spies1Gurinder: so basicallyspies1Gurinder: us 3... alliance?
spies1Julian: And the silence is deafening.
spies1Julian: :-P
spies1Julian: I think that after we see who's Imprisoned next
spies1Julian: It'll be easier to see how people react
spies1Julian: And judge from there who we could get on our side
spies1Gurinder: yup
spies1Monica: Wait wait
spies1Monica: So the plan is to vote out Gerta?
spies1Gurinder: we havent really decided anything yet
spies1Gurinder: the thing is
spies1Gurinder: there is a higher chance that soraya is a spy then gerta is
spies1Gurinder: but, it would be easier to get gerta votes, a lot easier
spies1Julian: But still
spies1Gurinder: but, a failed attempt against gerta would mean war
spies1Julian: We're not sure we have time to get enough
spies1Gurinder: and a failed attempt against soraya wouldnt be as bad
spies1Gurinder: yeah
spies1Gurinder: but if we do get time - we should make a decision?
spies1Julian: So it might be better to fly under the radar for this vote
spies1Julian: See, one thing to also consider
spies1Julian: The less people there are in general, the less people needed to make a majority
spies1Monica: LOL Hopefully the citizens will win before our numbers get that small
spies1Julian: Oh, yeah, I didn't think of it that way
spies1Julian: lol
spies1Monica: So this sucks
spies1Monica: Either we vote together and try to get others to join us and out ourselves as an alliance to the Spies
spies1Julian: Or we press our luck and slide by til next vote
spies1Monica: Or we basically let others control the game for us and probably end up voting out a citizen
spies1Julian: Honestly
spies1Julian: Unless we have the numbers as a fact
spies1Monica: Doesn't matter
spies1Julian: I don't want to risk outing ourselves
spies1Monica: Because even if we get a spy
spies1Monica: There will still be 2 left
spies1Monica: And they will imprison someone in the alliance
spies1Julian: But those would be a much larger group to pick from
spies1Monica: Who?
spies1Julian: I mean, if we got the votes for Gerta
spies1Julian: that would be a group of 8 people or so
spies1Monica: Wouldn't even have to be
spies1Monica: At this stage, the vote will probably be really divided
spies1Monica: No one knows who to vote for
spies1Julian: True
spies1Julian: I don't know if I'm ready to make a bold move this soon
spies1Gurinder: well
spies1Monica: I bet even a vote of 5 could be majority in this round
spies1Gurinder: if we tell everyone to vote gerta
spies1Gurinder: and risk ourselves
spies1Monica: Not willing to place money on it though
spies1Gurinder: 3 will not vote gerta
spies1Gurinder: and we will know
spies1Monica: Right, then one of us will surely be exiled this round
spies1Monica: I mean
spies1Monica: Imprisoned the next round
spies1Gurinder: yeah
spies1Gurinder: which sucks
spies1Monica: I'd honestly say that it looks like Damien is going
spies1Julian: So do we jump the bandwagon and remain hidden?
spies1Monica: Which is a shame because it doesn't eliminate any of my suspects
spies1Gurinder: but, one of us could be imprisoned before the next exiling
spies1Gurinder: i already have a target on my back from the chat thanks to gerta
spies1Gurinder: and monica has a slight target because not many have talked to her
spies1Julian: Less of a chance though if we stay with majority
spies1Julian: I would think at least
spies1Gurinder: well
spies1Monica: And voted for Damien?
spies1Gurinder: we should see how things unfold
spies1Julian: I dunno
spies1Gurinder: things may change tomorrow
spies1Julian: I think the spies are gonna do whatever they're gonna do
spies1Julian: And how we vote isn't going to do much
spies1Monica: I rather agree
spies1Monica: Which is unfortunate
spies1Monica: I hate biding my time and being patient
spies1Monica: But I also hate being out of a game in round 2
spies1Julian: So I don't know how much we can hide
spies1Julian: But I know that we can avoid drawing unnecessary attention to ourselves
spies1Gurinder: but i already have a ton of attention
spies1Monica: LOL
spies1Gurinder: the spies clearly set me up this round
spies1Julian: Hahaha
spies1Gurinder:
spies1Julian: Are you ready to put more on yourself?
spies1Monica: It's true
spies1Gurinder: ah - i like attention !
spies1Monica: I can tell
spies1Gurinder: haha
spies1Julian:
spies1Gurinder: well cant we like make a fake username on the forum
spies1Gurinder: and PM everyone
spies1Gurinder: anoynmously
spies1Gurinder: lmao
spies1Julian: hahaha somehow, i doubt it
spies1Gurinder: or make a new SN and IM everyone
spies1Gurinder: i doubt its in the rules
spies1Monica: Look
spies1Monica: Gindi
spies1Monica: If you do it
spies1Monica: Don't let us know
spies1Monica: OK?
spies1Julian: Pretty much, yeah
spies1Gurinder: haha
spies1Gurinder: i won't do it
spies1Monica: You know what I mean?
spies1Gurinder: im just joshin' around
spies1Gurinder: so
spies1Gurinder: what have we decided
spies1Gurinder: lay low this round?
spies1Gurinder: and see how things unfold
spies1Julian: That's my vote
spies1Julian: What do you two feel?
spies1Gurinder: well im not going to vote quite yet
spies1Monica: LOL you know how I feel, I think
spies1Gurinder: im gunna vote last minute
spies1Gurinder: see how everyone is thinking
spies1Julian: I mean vote about the decision
spies1Julian: Not the vote vote
spies1Gurinder: its damien now, but the next minute could be anyone
spies1Gurinder: oo ok
spies1Gurinder: lol
spies1Gurinder: yeah
spies1Gurinder: lay low
spies1Julian: I am going to prevote Damien, just in case
spies1Julian: But I should be around tomorrow before the real vote
spies1Monica: For some reason I can't edit my posts
spies1Gurinder: unless gerta is suddenly on the block (which she totally could be since she was all "vote for andrew" and soyra was left out and others may put the pieces together) and we vote for them instead
spies1Monica: I think it's my internet being fickle
spies1Julian: No, he took the Editing feature away
spies1Monica: He did? It was there earlier tonight
spies1Julian: He recently removed it
spies1Monica: OK
spies1Julian: At least, I figure so
spies1Julian: I don't have it either
spies1Monica: It's a small button right above posts
spies1Monica: It's not called "edit"
spies1Monica: It's called something else
spies1Gurinder: modify?
spies1Monica: Yeah
spies1Monica: That's it
spies1Julian: oh
spies1Julian: i'm dumb.
spies1Gurinder: so - this round lay low - vote with the majority (hoping its gerta or soyra) - begin to giv epieces of the puzzle this round possibly and next round (like... yeah gerta said soyra wasnt in the chat but she was)
spies1Gurinder: and maybe people will hopefully figure things out on their own
spies1Gurinder: just planting seed by see
spies1Gurinder: seed*
spies1Gurinder: the onyl thing is we are THREE people
spies1Gurinder: there are THREE spies
spies1Monica: Wouldn't it be funny if one of us was a spy
spies1Monica: That would crack me up
spies1Gurinder: people may think WE are the spies LOL
spies1Monica: The other 2 of us would be doomed either way
spies1Gurinder: i cant think of that
spies1Julian: Um, take the other one first
spies1Julian: I want to last longer
spies1Gurinder: LOL
spies1Gurinder: i trust you both
spies1Gurinder: so i hope u arent spies
spies1Gurinder: so we know what to do this exile?
spies1Monica: We'll have to wait till the end of the game to know for sure
spies1Monica: I will congratulate both of you if you are spies
spies1Monica: And if this is a setup
spies1Julian: If you guys don't see me on and plans change
spies1Julian: send me a PM
spies1Monica: OK
spies1Gurinder: k
spies1Monica: What does Gurinder mean anyway?
spies1Monica: I've never heard that name
spies1Gurinder: its an east indian name lol
spies1Gurinder: very common
spies1Monica: Julian, why no buddy icon?
spies1Julian: When I tried to get one
spies1Julian: It kept freezing up on me
spies1Julian: So I said fuck it
spies1Julian: and decided to wait for later
spies1Gurinder: ok ill be alittle occupied
spies1Monica: Do you want me to make one for you like the one I have?
spies1Gurinder: so ill be in and out of viewing thisc hat
spies1Gurinder: so im still here - just ill be a bit quite
spies1Julian: Yes please
spies1Gurinder: hopefully more wil sign on
spies1Julian: I'm actually about to retire soon
spies1Monica: It won't be a Monica face LOL
spies1Monica: OK I'll post it for you
spies1Julian: Hahahaha
spies1Monica: All right
spies1Julian: But maybe I want a Monica face?
spies1Monica: Good talking to you both
spies1Julian: Send it to me in a PM or something
spies1Monica: LOL
spies1Julian: Don't want the general public to know we've been cavorting
spies1Monica: Do you want an I Heart Monica one?
spies1Monica: LOL I think I'm goingi to make an icon for everyone
spies1Julian: I'll keep the I Heart Monica one in my pants
spies1Julian: What?
spies1Julian: Who said that?
spies1Monica: Because I am sick of the I AM AIM I AM FAX I AM IM I AM EMAIL one
spies1Monica: I will say it's less annoying than the "r u there AIM r u there AIM" one
spies1Julian: hahahaha
spies1Julian: I would love one, Monica
spies1Julian: Thank you
spies1Monica: You're welcomoe
spies1Monica: OK I'm off for a bit
spies1Monica: Good night gents
spies1Julian: Good night!
spies1Gurinder: Night!@

[Julian]

spies1Julian: Glad I caught you!
spies1Mercedes: dang ive been hiding
spies1Mercedes: how are you jules
spies1Julian: Doing well, doing well
spies1Julian: And yourself?
spies1Mercedes: a little busy
spies1Mercedes: but real life is slowly calming down
spies1Julian: Oh I hear you
spies1Julian: That happens to me a lot
spies1Mercedes: so about tonights vote...
spies1Julian: Yeah, did everything I say make sense?
spies1Julian: A lot happened last night, it was hard to summarize it all.
spies1Julian: Have you seen Gigi on at all?
spies1Mercedes: everything you said made perfect sense
spies1Mercedes: no i havent actually
spies1Julian: Me neither
spies1Julian: What do you think you should do?
spies1Julian: Speak of the Devil
spies1Mercedes: idk
spies1Mercedes: im talking to monica and sage right now
spies1Mercedes: sage says he thinks hes going to vote for damien because of inactivity
spies1Julian: Oh good
spies1Julian: Then someone brought it up to you
spies1Julian: In that case, I would go along with it, I think the more votes we have for Damien right now, the better
spies1Mercedes: i agree
spies1Julian: When I mentioned Emma, it was purely luck of the draw
spies1Julian: I think any of the "more inactive" people will suffice
spies1Mercedes: yeah thats ok
spies1Mercedes: i was just giving input on the people

[Julian]

spies1Julian: 'ello friend
spies1Sage: hello how are you?
spies1Julian: Doing well, doing well.
spies1Julian: How are you?
spies1Sage: sorry! so many conversations at once! i'm doing well, though this exile has me on my toes
spies1Julian: I'll let you deal with others first
spies1Julian: I'll be here
spies1Julian: Why are you on your toes though?
spies1Sage: well, it's elimination time! anyone could go. that's always a cause for some type of uneasiness
spies1Julian: Right, I'm just wondering if the vote is up in the air
spies1Sage: is it? i haven't talked to too many people since yesterday
spies1Julian: I hear a lot of people saying Damien
spies1Sage: that's good - then is it premature to say congratulations on the final 16?
spies1Julian: I hope not
spies1Julian: I already casted my vote.
spies1Sage: as have i
spies1Julian: Have you heard anyone else who is going to?
spies1Sage: Mercedes, Gigi, and Monica it sounds like. and you?
spies1Julian: DJ and Emma both said they would
spies1Sage: that's wonderful
spies1Julian: And they both told me that they heard others are voting that way as well
spies1Sage: wonderful. looks like Damien's well on his way to the edge of civilization
spies1Julian: And we'll all make it to round 2 :-D
spies1Sage: the way it should be
spies1Sage: alright later Julian, i've gotta run. catch ya later
spies1Julian: Take care!

[Julian]

spies1Julian: Hey there.
spies1Monica: Hey you
spies1Julian: Loved the buddy icons
spies1Monica: Well thank you
spies1Julian: Do you see it?
spies1Monica: Nope
spies1Monica: Just the background
spies1Julian: Oh damn.
spies1Monica: No icon
spies1Julian: Maybe it'll show up soon.
spies1Monica: Did you save it to your computer?
spies1Julian: Yes
spies1Julian: I see it on mine
spies1Monica: Do you see mine?
spies1Julian: Yes
spies1Julian: Try closing my window maybe
spies1Monica: OK
spies1Julian: Then reopening, maybe it needs to refresh
spies1Monica: Trying again ...
spies1Monica: Nope still not there
spies1Monica: Do the others see it?
spies1Julian: I'm not sure
spies1Monica: So heard anything new?
spies1Julian: No, I haven't been around since last night.
spies1Julian: Have you heard anything new?
spies1Monica: Just signed on
spies1Julian: Birds of a feather
spies1Julian: I imagine that I'm going to leave soon, find some nourishment
spies1Julian: But I should be back before the actual vote is due.
spies1Monica: OK have fun
spies1Julian: Should you be around in the time before the vote, do you think?
spies1Monica: Yes
spies1Monica: Are you talking to Sage now, out of curiosity?
spies1Julian: Yes
spies1Julian: Why?
spies1Monica: He seems very edgy?
spies1Julian: Somewhat, yes
spies1Julian: What do you think that means?
spies1Monica: I think that he's feeling paranoid at the moment
spies1Julian: I wonder why
spies1Monica: Yeah yeah
spies1Monica: Has he said anything interesting?
spies1Julian: spies1Sage: that's good - then is it premature to say congratulations on the final 16?
spies1Julian: Not that it's overly interesting
spies1Monica: OK maybe he's just edgy to me
spies1Julian: What is he saying to you?
spies1Monica: Well I mentioned that Damien is suggested for exile because Sage brought it up
spies1Monica: And asked him if he thought it would make him look bad if Damien wasn't a spy
spies1Monica: And Sage got very defensive.
spies1Julian: Interesting

[Julian]

spies1Julian: This is what I literally said the second you signed on.
spies1Julian: spies1Julian: Have you seen Gigi on at all?
spies1Julian:
spies1Gigi: *Laughs*
spies1Gigi: Julian darling, it's just marvelous to meet you!
spies1Julian: Likewise, I'm sure
spies1Gigi: haha, I certainly enjoyed reading your post!
spies1Julian: I do hope it all made sense.
spies1Gigi: If we always plan out like that, there's surely no way we could go wrong
spies1Julian: Much happened last night and it was quite difficult to summarize it all.
spies1Gigi: I wish I had been here to witness it all!
spies1Julian: Not a single one of our names has been mentioned
spies1Julian: Outside of Mercedes and that really was only in passing
spies1Gigi: Yes, we'll pretend like that didn't happen
spies1Julian: Hello?
spies1Gigi: Hello!
spies1Gigi: I am so sorry!
spies1Julian: Haha, it's fine
spies1Julian:
spies1Gigi: It's my little darling Fifi
spies1Gigi: my poodle
spies1Gigi: She's distracting me
spies1Julian: Mercedes is just worried about your lack of silence in the chat
spies1Gigi: lack of silence or lack of speaking?
spies1Julian: ....yes.
spies1Gigi: Julian, darling, are you having as much fun being a spy as I am? *laughs*
spies1Julian: Quite.
spies1Julian: I just hope the balance we've achieved so far will be maintained.
spies1Julian: Everyone right now has someone in mind
spies1Julian: I hope to keep things like that for as long as possible
spies1Julian: Which is why I personally feel that making next round mirror this one will work
spies1Julian: Do you see what I mean?
spies1Gigi: Absolutely! We're definitely under the radar
spies1Julian:
spies1Julian: I hope I don't come across as bossy
spies1Julian: I just wanted to make sure you ladies were on the same page as I was
spies1Gigi: No, darling, you're a sweetheart
spies1Gigi: I just was somewhat afraid of finding myself alienated because of my age.. but so far, that has not seemed to occur
spies1Julian: You're not the oldest
spies1Julian: And besides, you are one of the most beautiful
spies1Gigi: Ah, you are certainly a charmer!
spies1Julian: See, what I love about the Damien vote
spies1Julian: Is they all know that he's not a spy
spies1Julian: But they're all going to vote him out anyway
spies1Julian: Isn't that poetic?
spies1Gigi: *laughs* Well why are they doing that then!? Silly citizens
spies1Julian: Because they've gotten it in their heads
spies1Julian: That inactive = bad
spies1Julian: Which, I agree, it does. But not in this game.
spies1Gigi: That is true
spies1Gigi: I'd be looking at the actives if I were them
spies1Julian: Exactly
spies1Julian: So Sage told me that he brought you on board for the Damien vote
spies1Gigi: Ouiiiii!
spies1Julian: He's done it for all of us now, I suppose the voting against each other thing won't go
spies1Julian: But next round might be more scattered
spies1Julian: This is something we'll definately have to play by ear
spies1Gigi: Yes, we can have more opportunity to throw them off
spies1Gigi: Right, we cannot plan too far ahead!
spies1Julian: Also
spies1Julian: I just posted the list of who suspects whom
spies1Gigi: Brilliant! *smooches*
spies1Julian: Will you be around for the Exiling?
spies1Julian: I do believe that I am going to find some nourishment now.
spies1Gigi: *laughs* Are you starving?
spies1Julian: Africa Starving? No.
spies1Julian: America Starving? Yes.
spies1Gigi: That's what I meant, silly!
spies1Julian:
spies1Julian: We can do this.
spies1Julian: I think we'll make a good team
spies1Gigi: as do I
spies1Julian: We just need to be sure to report to each other on everything, all the time
spies1Gigi: Yes, absolutely
spies1Gigi: And do our best not to stick out
spies1Julian: Will you be here for the Exiling?
spies1Gigi: I certainly hope so!
spies1Julian: I should talk to you then.
spies1Gigi: Wonderful
spies1Julian: If not, leave you messages in our forum.
spies1Gigi: *Laughs* that's not quite as good as talking like this though!
spies1Julian: Agreed
spies1Julian: But at least it is a direct line of communication, no?
spies1Gigi: Yes!

[Julian]

spies1Soraya: hey
spies1Julian: Hello again
spies1Soraya: so
spies1Soraya: I heard we and sage wnat to take out damien
spies1Julian: I'm hearing a lot of things
spies1Julian: I've heard both Sage and Damien
spies1Soraya: and who are you going to vote for?
spies1Julian: I don't know
spies1Julian: Who are you going to vote for?
spies1Soraya: not sure
spies1Soraya: everyone is leaning toward damien
spies1Julian: Who do you think is the right person to vote out?
spies1Soraya: I mean sage
spies1Soraya: everyone is leaning to sage
spies1Soraya: for accusing dmaien
spies1Julian: Yeah
spies1Julian: and I agree that is more suspicious
spies1Julian: But at the same time, I want to vote with the majority
spies1Julian: I'm not sure if I'm ready to stick out
spies1Soraya: I agree
spies1Julian: Who have you heard is voting for Sage?
spies1Soraya: Marion, Monica, Josh, DJ
spies1Julian: Add you and me for argument's sake
spies1Julian: Is 6/17 enough?
spies1Soraya: hmmm
spies1Soraya: well we only have two hours
spies1Julian: I know
spies1Julian: If I don't know that we can get majority for Sage, I'm not going to go for it
spies1Julian: I think right now it's more important to be in majority

[Julian]

spies1Julian: Hi there
spies1Monica: Hey you
spies1Julian: So I hear you might be getting your wish?
spies1Monica: Really?
spies1Julian: Assuming you still have the same wish
spies1Monica: Hasn't changed, no
spies1Monica: My wish, I mean
spies1Julian: Do you think we can muster the votes?
spies1Monica: Maybe.
spies1Monica: What have you heard?
spies1Julian: Just Josh
spies1Monica: Well here's what someone just said, which I thought was interesting
spies1Monica: If Sage is a spy, that probably means Damien is a citizen
spies1Monica: If Sage is a citizen, that means he was just guessing on Damien and we're right back where we started, no worse off
spies1Julian: Right
spies1Julian: Here is my question to you
spies1Julian: We both vote Sage, and whether he's out or not
spies1Julian: How does this affect Gindi?
spies1Monica: What do you mean?
spies1Julian: Well, last night he was sharing a lot withus
spies1Julian: Do you think that'll dry up?
spies1Monica: What makes you think I'm not going to tell Gindi?
spies1Monica: Ask him, I mean
spies1Julian: I don't know. How do you think he'll react?
spies1Monica: Gindi's so nice
spies1Monica: He doesn't want to exile anyone
spies1Monica: He's a good guy
spies1Julian: I agree, he's definately a good guy
spies1Julian: You think he'll vote with us?
spies1Monica: What are your thoughts on it?
spies1Julian: I think it's best to at least tell him before the vote, whether he'll go along with it or not
spies1Monica: Of course!
spies1Monica: I agree totally
spies1Julian: And it should be one of us
spies1Monica: I would hope that he would do the same for me
spies1Julian: If not both
spies1Julian: He's pretty well liked and if the Sage vote fails
spies1Julian: I don't think he'll point fingers
spies1Monica: You're good. I think you're right.
spies1Monica: Less than 2 hours, dum dum dum
spies1Monica: It's sad. I mean, I think Sage is a good guy also.
spies1Monica: But he also set himself up well whether he's right or not
spies1Julian: Exactly
spies1Julian: He stood out in a way that no one should have
spies1Julian: I don't know what that means
spies1Monica: In a way that I hope I'm not
spies1Julian: But, Spy or Citizen, he's not playing his hand very well
spies1Monica: I don't definitively think Sage is a spy - how could I?
spies1Monica: But I don't think that Damien's move of targeting someone who is probably not a spy is the right move
spies1Julian: I know what you mean
spies1Julian: I'
spies1Julian: d feel better talking to him with you
spies1Monica: I gotta dash out for a bit
spies1Monica: We still have 2 hours though
spies1Julian: Haha there's my answer
spies1Monica: I'll talk to you when I come back
spies1Julian: Okay, I'll grow a pair and do it myself
spies1Julian: Take care!
spies1Monica: You too

[Julian]

spies1Josh: julian!
spies1Julian: Hey Josh
spies1Josh: a lot has been going on in the past hour
spies1Josh: apparently, sage and gurinder were pushing the vote for damien to everyone they saw today
spies1Josh: mostly sage
spies1Josh: and as a result, people were starting to get suspicious of sage
spies1Josh: (did i tell you about the 2-post thing last night? i don't believe so)
spies1Julian: No
spies1Josh: i wrote this down and came back once i had met everyone so i wouldn't be influenced
spies1Josh: before the game started, we were told to test-post in our confessionals
spies1Josh: some people hadn't done that
spies1Josh: most had 1 post listed
spies1Josh: three had 2 posts
spies1Josh: i went back to it last night: caroline, gurinder, sage
spies1Josh: now, i haven't met caroline. so i can't say anything about that
spies1Josh: but it's awfully odd that sage and gurinder have been so buddy buddy with strategy this early
spies1Julian: Yes, I agree
spies1Josh: anyway, monica? she told me last night she would mention today who she wanted to vote for
spies1Josh: it was sage.
spies1Julian: She confided that in me after you had left
spies1Josh: excellent. so there's no question there
spies1Josh: continuing, monica and i suggested getting other people on the sage boat
spies1Josh: and if we're questioned, say either it was a random vote or that we had heard it as a rumor but can't remember from where
spies1Josh: my vote is in for sage. i like the idea of playing it safe for the first round, but if there will only be 6-8 rounds, i don't want to waste any of them
spies1Josh: anyway, marion gave me her word that she was voting for sage
spies1Josh: (do you have thoughts at this point? i've given you a lot to chew on)
spies1Josh: i would have preferred gurinder, but sage is pushing inactives too, and sage isn't inactive. so i'll take what i can get
spies1Julian: How many people do we have so far?
spies1Josh: me, marion, monica, DJ, and soraya is waffling
spies1Josh: so it's a large enough faction that people can't be singled out.
spies1Julian: Emma voted for Damien
spies1Julian: I spoke to her last night
spies1Josh: i'm thinking some people did
spies1Julian: Let me get a feel
spies1Julian: I'm on board, for sure
spies1Josh: okay
spies1Josh: that makes 5 or 6
spies1Julian: But let me get a feel for who did what
spies1Josh: okay
spies1Julian: If it really looks bleak in the end, I think we might think about switching back
spies1Josh: maybe... i'm going to see who comes on before the exile
spies1Julian: Timing is everything
spies1Josh: wise words
spies1Julian: Damien might very well self vote too
spies1Julian: Haha which would suck
spies1Josh: oh jeez
spies1Josh: that would
spies1Julian: I just told Gindi that I haven't heard anything else
spies1Josh: probably for the best
spies1Julian: Wow this is crazy
spies1Josh: what is?
spies1Julian: Everything happening
spies1Julian: Hahaha
spies1Julian: You know, I think this might be pulled off
spies1Josh: so do i.
spies1Josh: marion and i gave each other our words. you and DJ are definite, monica's near-definite, and soraya is headed that way
spies1Julian: I wonder if Dawn voted while she was on
spies1Josh: hmm... i'm not sure
spies1Josh: we should probably push it to others if they show up before the live exile
spies1Josh: wait, strike out the probably
spies1Josh: definitely.
spies1Julian: Marion's definately playing coy
spies1Julian: Not that I blame her
spies1Josh: okay. soraya's pretty much definite
spies1Julian: Lol you were typing for a pretty long time
spies1Josh: did it say that?
spies1Julian: Yes
spies1Julian: What should I make of this, then?
spies1Josh: of which part?
spies1Julian: spies1Soraya: I heard we and sage wnat to take out damien
spies1Josh: .
spies1Josh: spies1Soraya (7:58:32 PM): so the majority is leaning toward Sage?
spies1Josh (7:58:44 PM): it's hard to say majority either way
spies1Josh (7:58:50 PM): there are definitely some for both
spies1Josh (7:59:12 PM): has anyone directly told you they were definitely voting damien?
spies1Josh: spies1Soraya (8:00:30 PM): no
spies1Soraya (8:00:41 PM): their leaning toward sage
spies1Josh (8:00:51 PM): that's good to hear!
spies1Soraya (8:01:11 PM): Monica is
spies1Josh: that makes me mad.
spies1Josh: maybe she's playing coy, maybe she's playing one of us
spies1Julian: Let me feel her out
spies1Josh: please do.
spies1Josh: i want as much info as possible
spies1Julian: Of course
spies1Julian: We do have an agreement, do we not?
spies1Josh: on this vote or in the whole game? either way my answer is yes
spies1Julian: I was thinking more than just this vote
spies1Julian: We certainly respect each other as intellectuals
spies1Josh: i was hoping so.
spies1Josh: of course it would never be mentioned to anyone else. relationships are best kept quiet
spies1Julian: Naturally not
spies1Josh: okay, i'm going to run. i should be back in an hour or just over, and i'll almost definitely be there for the live exile.
spies1Julian: Okay
spies1Julian: I'll update you
spies1Julian: even if it's after the Exile
spies1Josh: see you then!

[Julian]

spies1Julian: Hi there. Again.
spies1Marion: Hey :-)
spies1Julian: How are you?
spies1Marion: I'm good, how're you?
spies1Julian: Doing well
spies1Julian: Wondering what the hell is going to happen
spies1Marion: Me too, I'm nervous.
spies1Julian: I hear tell that you're part of a plan
spies1Marion: Hmm, what kind of plan?
spies1Julian: To vote for Sage
spies1Marion: Yes. I am voting for Sage.
spies1Julian: I think I am too
spies1Marion: Yay :-)
spies1Julian: This game is tricksy.
spies1Marion: I know, it's hard to know what to do, you just have to... do it.
spies1Julian: I'm sorry, I went quiet
spies1Marion: It's alright
spies1Julian: I like your look. You look like a good friend of mine.
spies1Marion: Oh, wow, thanks. I think I'm terribly ugly.
spies1Julian: Not at all
spies1Julian: I bet you'd look stunning in a red cocktail dress
spies1Marion: Wow, that's the nicest thing anyone's said in years :-)
spies1Julian: Your dossier said that you're an artist?
spies1Marion: Yes, although I haven't done much with the scarce amount of time on my hands.
spies1Julian: Understandable, completely!
spies1Julian: What kind of art? Painting, sculpting, drawing?
spies1Marion: Painting, though I'm not too shabby at drawing either. I do abstract art, and water painting. I can't afford many of the supplies I need so I'm stuck with the cheap stuff :-P
spies1Julian: The "cheap stuff", in my opinion, makes it ever the more real.
spies1Marion: I agree. I don't need the fancy type of supplies to make a masterpiece as long as I've got something... and sometimes it does come out better, but still, it'd be nice to hold a paintbrush that doesn't go dry every five seconds for once in my life.
spies1Julian: I'm sure your work is very good.
spies1Marion: I can only hope it is, I need it to be sold
spies1Julian: I'm sure things will pick up after the War.
spies1Marion: All I have is hope that it will. And seeing as there's a slim chance that anything but hope is going to get me through the whole thing- I'm pretty glad for that.
spies1Marion: It's not like I can really fight the battles myself.
spies1Julian: I suppose that's what the Resistance is for
spies1Marion: Right
spies1Julian: Plus, think of this
spies1Julian: after the war, the value of your paintings could skyrocket!
spies1Marion: Yes! That's true. Put a smile on my face :-D
spies1Julian: Whew, this is nervewracking.
spies1Julian: 10 minutes left.
spies1Marion: Oops, sorry, I don't know why my windows aren't flashing.....
spies1Julian: I typed that pretty recently.
spies1Marion: I know, but I'm three minutes off. I'm ashamed :-P
spies1Julian: I forgive you.
spies1Julian: Let's hope we got it
spies1Marion: Hope so
spies1Julian: I thought he probably self voted.
spies1Marion: I didn't think he'd vote for ME lol
spies1Julian: That was weird
spies1Julian: That scared me
spies1Julian: hahahaha
spies1Marion: lol
spies1Marion: I can't believe I tried to save Damien and he voted for me :-P
spies1Julian: Asshole
spies1Marion: It's not his fault though, heh.
spies1Marion: Aww, see, he left anyways.

[Julian]

spies1Julian: Hey
spies1DJ: Hi Julian
spies1DJ: How've things been?
spies1Julian: I'm doing fine, and yourself?
spies1DJ: Pretty good, just wondering where in the world this vote is going to end up, lol
spies1Julian: I hear you might be in on this new plan?
spies1DJ: Lol about Sage? I think so, hearing Damien signed on yesterday made me feel bad that we were voting him off for not being around if he came around
spies1Julian: If we can pull it off, I say go for it
spies1DJ: Lol that seems to be the problem, there's so much going on, this could go anywhere now
spies1Julian: This is getting confusing! Hahaha
spies1DJ: Lol I know! And we're running out of time, too
spies1Julian: I'm scared
spies1Julian: I'm scared of voting for Sage and not having enough votes
spies1DJ: Me too... I'm not completely sure who all is doing it, either. Josh told me he was, and that a few others had said for sure they would, but it's still weird
spies1Julian: I don't know if it's enough
spies1Julian: I mean, I really don't know
spies1DJ: Lol we really need a chat together so we can see who's doing what, or else we're going to forget what time it is and all self vote lol
spies1Julian: I don't think a large group would work in one chat though
spies1Julian: You know what I mean?
spies1DJ: True, with 6 people online, one of us is probably a spy, lol. Which makes it weirder
spies1Julian: Yeah, odds are
spies1DJ: This is going to be tough either way
spies1Julian: If we're not going to hit majority, what will you do?
spies1DJ: Well, if it looks like everyone's going to vote Damien, I would change over I guess. But as long as the odds are close to even I think I might stay, it really depends on everyone else though, I'd feel bad voting for Sage and him wind up not being a spy and still being here
spies1Julian: I'm worried about voting Sage, him not getting enough votes, and him BEING a spy
spies1DJ: ...Lol you're right, that would be a bit worse, then he'd be out to get us
spies1DJ: LOL OK that makes it even more important to know for sure
spies1Julian: Hearing anything?
spies1DJ: Unfortunately no, I'm worried now
spies1Julian: OMG DJ
spies1Julian: I just reread the rules
spies1DJ: Uhoh did we miss something important?
spies1Julian: 1st time: You will cast three self-votes against yourself.
spies1DJ: Oh for not voting at all?
spies1Julian: Yep
spies1DJ: So Damien might have three extra votes anyways
spies1Julian: Right
spies1DJ: Thats definitely something to think about, if he's only been on once, he probably didn't vote
spies1Julian: And that was before the Exile
spies1DJ: Lol yep so he hasn't even had the chance... OK, that definitely shifts the tide a bit
spies1Julian: So what are you thinking now?
spies1DJ: Lol its still a debate, that's shifting to Damien
spies1Julian: Hahaha... what if we didn neither?
spies1DJ: Lol we have another option??
spies1Julian: Depley will be getting 3 self votes.
spies1DJ: That's true, he hasn't even signe don AIM yet that I've seen
spies1Julian: He was on once.
spies1Julian: Not very nice.
spies1DJ: Lol that doesn't help his case
spies1Julian: Wow, we're fucked no matter what we do
spies1DJ: Lol I know, right, it really seems that way
spies1Julian: Any decisions yet?
spies1DJ: Lol every time I swing one way somebody says or mentions something that puts me back in the middle, this is brutal
spies1Julian: I feel the same way
spies1DJ: Lol I hope for our sakes somebody says something to swing us all the way, on side or the other
spies1Julian: 10 minutes, give or take.
spies1DJ: Lol yes I'm watching the countdown on the forums, ticking away way too fast
spies1Julian: Well, speak of the devil
spies1DJ: Lol wow, does he have perfect timing or what
spies1Julian: Make your decision yet?
spies1Julian: 4 minutes left.
spies1DJ: Lol that only makes things harder, I might vote Sage now, possible
spies1DJ: Lol 3 mins and 41 seconds!
spies1Julian: Gindi has the votes laid out for Damien
spies1Julian: pretty much all the way, counting self votes from him
spies1DJ: Yep looks like Damien is gone, I think, everyone is saying so
spies1Julian: oh my god
spies1DJ: Lol I just made a quick vote for Damien with 3 seconds left... I didn't have time to think it over anymore, did you get your vote in time?
spies1Julian: Yeah
spies1Julian: I went with Sage
spies1Julian: Monica was really pushing me
spies1DJ: This should be interesting
spies1DJ: I added "But I change vote Sage if I'm allowed to" to my vote, lol
spies1Julian: I wonder what this tool is
spies1DJ: Me too, whatever it is, we REALLY need it, lol
spies1DJ: Lol OK I'm sorry, my vote change wasn't in time, I cost us a chance to get a potential spy
spies1Julian: It's okay
spies1Julian: Ugh that was hard
spies1DJ: I know, 10 seconds and I might have been in time, I'll have to become a superdetective the next few days to make up for this, lol
spies1Julian: Take care, pal
spies1DJ: Thanks you too, I'll be working hard tomorrow to make up for my blunder!
