That's a scumtell. What's the point of defending yourself if we let you live?

That's not exactly true, but it shows you've pretty much given up, so you're not much help anyway.

Well, it seems we have a general idea which direction today's going in. You've been screwing around far too much for my tastes, Robbins. Wheeler's just stuck an extra couple nails in your coffin as well with that last statement. A couple of folk are being put under suspicion here, but your behavior by far's been the most erratic, to me. I feel like I'm jumping on the obvious lynch candidate (how you people can do so much during one nap I'll never know) but god... Are you freaking serious?

As a scroll mage, both health and power should be nearly worthless to you. Get the ether, or the gold if you really need it.

Still don't quite see where I emphasized, but I guess it's fair enough. Usually in day one discussions there's nothing to talk about until someone slips up. I can put my finger on it, by the way. It's called a gut feeling. Precisely what I'm saying. It's something to discuss. Even if it turns out to be false. And that's why I'll never drink foreign oil fluid again. I can't imagine being drunk enough to buy you such a stupid hat.

I don't know what you mean by pushing it, or what I'm taking back. Wheeler asked me to elaborate, and I was careful to point out to Walters that he shouldn't be so sure there was another scum team. I'm not going to try my darnest to purge any doubt in your mind that I'm townie (that's pretty much pointless), but I'm going to respond to your accusations. If that's what you mean by pushing it so hard.

I'm more than aware of that: If I'm on your scumdar because I've pointed out a passively helpful clue rather than a nonexistent vital one, fine. I'm glad to be on it. I don't deny it's not of any particular importance right now, but I didn't want it go unnoticed.

Of course there's nothing we can do about extra hostile factions right now. I'm just saying it's something to keep in mind. Taking out a scum isn't confirming their towniness if there's more than one scum faction.

Love it. Downright gorgeous.

It does make sense. One scum devoted to killing us all and stopping the voyage to meet aliens (well, that's what I'm getting out of 'Purists'), the other a scum of aliens trying to do the exact same to keep us from interfering with them. I still think being confident about another scum team is jumping to conclusions, though. There's only 23 of us, they'd have to be awful small teams for there to be two of them. We're in no position to confirm it, but even less so can we rule it out as a possibility. Guess we gotta keep our eyes and our minds open even more than what's usual in mysterious sudden murders and the massacre following the days afterward like these.

Well, third party isn't quite a faction in my eyes. One of the most common is even even referred to as independent. It's a possible case of poor wording, or a clue. But hey, you've gotta analyze everything to get anywhere today.

We're on lockdown? But I think I left the hyperdrive running! Poor captain. He was such a good man. Look, he had roses growing out of his shoulder. Bless him. So, let's get the finger-jabbing started. Anyone got any suspicions? Hey, I think I found a clue! Maybe! Either our fleet admiral is using factions interchangeably with allegiance, or something else... Seems a bit of an odd synonym to me. Doesn't help much right now, but nevertheless ignorance is most certainly not bliss given our current situation.

It's okay. I like that it's not a very obnoxious shade of purple or pink. Still somewhat neutral.

Awesome work as usual. :thumbup: But I don't think you've given us any close-ups of the gorilla guy behind Copperheard. (Not a comic enthusiast, I don't recognize him )

That is the explanation, and it's in there.

Hex the ally?

I think there was a bit about in Quest 23.

It does say product stage. But I can't help thinking it's a mistake or something, I doubt all have passed review and I'm sure we would've gotten a big announcement or something.

Well, I'm pretty sure it ended trying to extort more gold from the town guard after sleeping through an attack on the barracks. (Though that was more or less an accident. ) I like Patricia as well. At first glance she's the usual gruff get-shit-done kind of captain, but she really does seem one of the few non-heroes to see the scum lining Eubric.

I wonder why the town guard even bothers using Heroica anymore. Between Quests 6, 23, and 33, we may as well all be rogues.

Admiral, I think our ship has a deplorable lack of disposable redshirt ensigns for our personal use.

Of course we are! There's more of us than there are security!

Is that an accent or did your tongue go numb when you licked the arc reactor? I told you we shouldn't've been taking shots of that off-brand engine lubricating fluid, that's when the crazy shit goes down.

Admiraaaaaaaaaal? Why does the junior engineer get to be a higher rank than me?
