    :lol: that's how I felt about DaVinci Code, after which I decided never to read another Dan Brown book... and it looks like I was right :thumbsup:

    Ditto...

    So anyone fancy another book? I didn't join in in the last b/c of the book, I didn't mind, but I had other things I would have preferred to read. Or is the book club over now?

    I can definitely say that stimulation with music definitely helps me to think but when I'm at work where the computers are not mine to use as I want, kinda hard to do that lol. And work is one of the main places I have a chance to work on it since I'm even MORE distracted at home (talking to my friends, planning dates with my girlfriend, TV, games, etc)

    I don't know what is available to you and what the set-up is where you live but ANYTIME I have work to do I go to the Library. Sounds clichéd maybe, but if you can find a secluded spot there, and like Grayven mentioned, if you can stay away from the internet, then I think it would be very worthwhile. Well it is for me :).

    And something that helps me when I'm stuck for ideas is, oddly enough, to go swimming. To do lengths, and plenty of them, really clears my head of clutter, helping me think creatively.

    Yes, actually. We were looking for names with a classic sound but that weren't "old". We went to see the movie shortly before becoming pregnant and both agreed that Lyra was a good possibility. The fact that the character was so strong and independent was another good point. A little research to confirm that it wasn't a common name and it has been our girl name since.

    I think that's amazing that you've named your daughter after her. Lyra was an amazing character, like you said, and since reading His Dark Materials years ago, I've always wanted to come across someone called Lyra. It really is a great name. Your surname isn't by any chance Belacqua? :P

    Congratulations btw! :D

    We totally should have lynched you, what strikes me now is that BB was against it? :huh: Didn't he know that you were an agent??

    I don't know if he knew, guessed, or was just bluffing to save Izzy. I was also surprised no one called me out for not having arrested Bb when I said I would.. ^_^

    Awesome game everyone! Thanks LIS and SD for the whole set-up, SD for your excellent posts (Host Messages were a perfect touch ;)), and to the fellow Agents. Even with our run ins it was really good fun :blush:.

    We had a total mix-up on Day 2 though. There was confusion in the ranks so I went after Izzy. Then I found out we didn't want to go after her, even though we knew she was the Frenchman. So I had to back-track, which turned you all on me... ^_^ . That was our most stressful point, but once we got through that the odds were heavily in our favour.

    And the Agents got lucky that the attention was focused so much on Rogues, if it wasn't then the outcome would have been very different.

    Oh and SD, I didn't mean to seem impatient earlier, I was actually looking for confirmation from you that the day was over. Sorry about that :).

    And yeah, IDNE, I couldn't believe no one went for you once Itachi outed you! I think we were all like :huh: !

    Also kudos to Voltage, who I thought did really well in his first game in the BTSC.

    Thanks everyone, well played :D.

    Eh, what can I do? My teammate outed me, not much I can do about it... :dry:

    BTW, can you believe that they wanted to kill me? They said that I must be a double-agent b/c I didn't want us to vote as a block and b/c I was trying to convince them that we shouldn't defend eachother (hopefully now they can see why)... :huh:

    oh well, you've got me fair and square as betrayed by my teammate. :duh:

    Good game guys! You're on a roll!

    I'll call no contest so we can get the day to end. :thumbsup:

    Anyone worried there's an ulterior motive here... i.e he can't be lynched or picks someone in his stead? I hope not but we can't do anything to prevent it if there is.

    Edit: I see no one else is suspicious of this... anyone smell paranoia? :P

    Not necessarily. the agents could quite possibly be trying to out other players as agents to cover their tails.

    I'm not saying it's certain, but I would go 90% that he's Rogue. Which, if I'm looking at things correctly, means we're hitting the Rogues far more than the Agents. Renan could have been an Agent, but other than than that I'm not sure if we've killed any other Agents.

    My bad it was the Merovingian. Ceraph could very well be alive. RID kills, depending on the host, occur 100% even if there is an auto save on the player.

    That's the crux of it though, depending on the host. Is that how it was in Supernatural? I can't remember now. Clarification would be nice, but I doubt we'd get it.

    How do you know that Bb is for sure a Rogue and not an agent? :huh:

    From him and Izzy voting for each other Day 1. It's a tactic coming from right up Bb's street. Plus him going after me, presenting the argument that I was an Agent, when Izzy was on the stand. It's far more likley that he's a Rogue.

    If my sheet was correct, PT was the Oracle. He made it slightly apparent early on in the game and then Smith killed him.

    Was it not the Merovingian that killed him? And seeing as Bb is for sure a Rogue that would add up. Does this mean Ceraph is dead? Or I wonder did the RID bypass the autosave?

    Good job Neo! Renan can only have been a baddie, and more porbably a Rogue Program. Waiting on some info to see how I vote. Unfortunately though, I can't see a way for us to win this, unless ST ad possibly reaymond were someway bad.

    Edit: SG already said it. Although I wouldn't exactly recommmend Neo to say anything.

    Um... this is not off topic! The line "The Owls Are Not What They Seem" is from the Twin Peaks! So I'm asking if anyone figured out what Itachi meant by that?? :huh:

    No I know it's from the show, what I meant though is that it took you to point it out to me, because I had totally forgotten it. I knew there something odd about it when Itachi said it but I forgot it came form that small town with its swaying trees... Loved that sereis :wub: .

    There's no use of you arresting BB cause you'll won't make it till the morning to tell about it. Agents or the Rogues will RID kill you!

    I'm backing you up, but I don't know where to go from here other then to lynch you... One more question - all the kidnappings were mentioned, how come you kidnapping Izzy wasn't mentioned?? Izzy should have been inactive during that time since she's kidnapped!!

    You are getting lynched my friend, nice try??

    Unless the hosts have something to say you are getting lynched today!!

    I never said I had kidnapped Izzy. In fact I didn't kidnap Izzy. I used my Secret. And rolled a 5.

    Edit: I said it all here.

    JS it was very um... stupid. Marking Izzy as a baddie, cause you might of destroyed all the chances for us to win if she not a baddie, if you know what I mean!

    I inserted the right term. But like I said it was a misinterpretation and mistake. Sorry. :blush:
