If this were true, it would make mafia games super easy. I don't think the opposite is true either. The scum do know each other but I doubt everyone that is pointing the finger at me (surely due to jealousy and just general disreputable-ness) are all scum trying to take out someone with a keen eye and wit. I wouldn't be surprised if some of them are scum and some of them are just jumping on the bandwagon. Some of the scum are surely participating and trying to get rid of the person who is obviously your best bet against them, me. And some are sitting back and just watching for who they can dupe in the future. Now lets get back to the shoes, a line of questioning that surely makes more sense than the random numbers we were given by the faculty. If you think there is something to the names, I would look to the 80s movies that inspire them. Things were never so straight forward but there are general arcs you can look for. One of those would be the one everyone thinks is bad ( Which, for some reason, you plebes seem to think is me....which I will remember if you come to your senses and look to me to help you get through this.... ) can actually turn out to be the hero of the piece. See tvtropes.com for many many examples. -Bud

Your statement that 'most noob scum don't dare' cast a vote right away. And then saying that you think I'm scum because I cast a vote ...against a stoner. Is that really the type of school you want to be in? Look, I'm still willing to let you sit at the cool table with me but you really need to figure out who you want to be associated with. Good people like me or riff raff where scum can easily hide? -Bud Note, I did not give a stoner my number. I gave someone else. And I got something back for it about the shoes. How do you expect to make it in the world if you give something for nothing? -Bud Simone - excellent reasoning. And as a cheerleader are welcome to sit at the cool table. -Bud

So, that's what this school is like? Going for the easiest lynch? You're another one I would have given the benefit of the doubt to because you seem to come from a good family. I'm disappointed in all of you and you'll be sorry when I'm gone. Oh, and I said I'd give my number if people gave what shoes they wear. While, you haven't bothered to contribute what is obviously more important than numbers, my number is 21....the winning number in Blackjack. -Bud

Look, I was going to give you the benefit of the doubt because you obviously come from a good family but you may want to look at your logic there again. Exactly, as well as to act as our characters should be acting in order to generate interaction. Thinking meta, me and the stoners at the end of the movie would have teamed up to eliminate the threat and learned something today. Either that or I would be killed off in the first reel but nobody wants to go in assuming they a bit character. All the talk of helpful versus unhelpful is really meaningless since we have no data to go on. Sigh. And now I've gone and broke character. Hold on, here we go. Obviously, what is needed here is leadership. If I can't help but be dragged into this mess you really should listen to me. Look at their shoes. I'll give my number up if you all describe your shoes. I've already said you need to look at shoes but did you listen? I think you'll find our sneaks have filthy shoes (from doing dirty deeds - and for the metal heads (who I don't trust either) -- probably done dirt cheap so they are probably cheap shoes) For the record my shoes are leather dockers. Maybe confused. You can see my reasoning above, so maybe not. I'm probably gone anyway because I fixed a typo....er, I mean, If this school wants me out, I go out knowing I'm too good for you anyway -Bud

Casting accusations at me? Whether Black Mesa or just an undesirable here in the school. I know where my vote goes now. -Bud Vote Craig Anheiser (Kristel) ack - Bold didn't show up. How can Bud be having a temper tantrum if his bold doesn't show up? Let's try that again. Vote Craig Anheiser (Kristel)

Honestly, I thought both the town and scum in this run were newbies so a mistake shouldn't point things one way or another. This first vote really is based on very little.

I think this is all a ploy to throw us off his track! Genius!

Because I don't answer to stoners. If you have an accusation, make it. But remember school doesn't last forever and you're going to need a job at a place that doesn't do drug testing. -Bud

You can't judge a book by its cover but my dad says you can tell a lot about a person from his shoes. San Francisco weather is treacherous. -Bud

Cameron is clearly above reproach. Look at his outfit. It looks expensive. He can sit at my table. -Bud

I say we look how they dress. Obviously, John 'I'm on a ' Bender, Jeanie 'sit and spin' Beuller, Evil Chuckie Miller and Davey OsBONE should be suspect. I mean, just look at them. I thought this was a good school.

I'm Bud, but if you're smart you already know that. -Yawn- Who cares about Black whoever. I'll be over at my lunch table. Do not sit with me unless I say you can. Gifts and protection may get you on my good side and provide access to my lunch table.

I'm looking forward to this. Thanks for accepting my bribe application. -Tohst

The above ground portion of the plant contains two of the most modern solar collectors to exist on Mars as well 'human capital' drop off points overseen by a control tower. Soylent Installation by lego_tohst, on Flickr New Shipment Dropoff by lego_tohst, on Flickr Below ground are the machines that process this into food for the entire human race * Better view of letters and installation by lego_tohst, on Flickr This facility is placed where, in a more innocent time, people thought there was a face on the surface of Mars. Now, that's just crazy talk. *Human race may not actually benefit from the food produced here. Past performance is no indication of future benefit.

The first relatives of the crocodiles appeared 85 million years ago. You don't think they'd let some upstart humans continue to be the apex predator, do you? While most humans now realize Soylent Green is people, what they don't understand is the Soylent initiative is all a cover to feed the human's real master; Giant telepathic Crocodiles. Every hour new shipments of humans come in and are processed by the Soylent plant into tasty Green, Yellow, and Blue treats that are then fed directly to our hidden overlords. 20130131_8711 by lego_tohst, on Flickr Humans used to have to run the plants too but thanks to a less than successful attempt to seize more direct control using heh heh human animal hybrids, that task is now undertaken by larger if less competent workers.

Ha! Do you need to have a current avatar? Can I sci-fi the blank one? I can't wait and I'm going to work on this instead of doing my job today so thanks for giving me a great excuse to procrastinate. -Tohst

Debuted this at Niltc's annual christmas show this weekend. General reaction was 'Look a giant toilet!......what's the TIE fighter doing overhead....OH MY GOD, ANGR-Y BirD s STAR WARS!' Which of course was what I was looking for. Hope you like it. Better pictures on my photostream of both it and the toilet soon. TIE Piggy http://www.flickr.co...N05/8255775031/ And from another member's stream. The best shot of the bathroom/toilet so far. http://www.flickr.co...key/8259135069/ -Tohst

That mess of Randomness was awesome! It was a true mobile base. You had a short range car and spacecraft that docked into the main ship. It had manipulator arms and storage compartments for taking samples of whatever planet it was on at the time. A wide array of sensors, and yes, a rocket in back for....well, communications or defense, whatever tickled your fancy. I spent a long time just looking at that thing in the store before getting it and it quickly became the center of most of my stories even the ones that were mostly MOC-driven because you could say it was your base and still move it. And who doesn't like getting into the docked vehicles and flying/driving away just as the destruct countdown gets to zero? It could use the sample storage as detainment cells. It could use the manipulator arms to battle other robots or perhaps alien queens and then when the conflict is over return to actual SCIENCE! I believe the US name was Robot Command Center which led to it having a large part in the Mechanical rebellions as it could override controls of otherwise sentient robots. Loved it loved it loved it. -Tohst
