For some reason my instincts told me odg had Dining Room. When I made my accusation he was the only one who could have it. For some reason I thought he made a suggestion from there. Then I rechecked the log after my accusation.

"sob" is pretty rough, but that was 100% intended as humor , I took a chance it wouldnt be taken too hard

good going, turns out the trick this time was to outlast the others

and I'm in for 38, being the glutton for punishment that I am

Dining Room. It was in the Dining Room.


I always suspected it was the Dining Room. Odg and I bounced back and forth to it most of the game. However, odg didn't seem interested in returning to it so I suspected he had the Dining Room card. Of course, you could argue he didn't have an easy opportunity to get back there.

Ultimately, I took a random guess and it didn't work out, as usual.

Interesting game.

there are elements in this game similar to the fact wizard likes to quote about video poker, paraphrasing

"after a discouraging long streak of failing to get a Royal, you are no closer after the last failed draw than you were at the very beginning"

the cards do not seem to know I am due!

Interesting perspective.
Wiz, do you realise that you only did one disprove in the whole darned game and that went to round 6 ! You were international man of mystery.

Oh and ODG. Totally forgiven for the SOB comment.. . . Ya b45t4rd

He never made it there. He was outside it once.

Yes, I did notice that. It did give me serious pause to accusing my last round. Still, I thought the weapon and suspect were common knowledge by the time of my accusation so it didn't really matter. Two of my cards were weapons.

Green (odg)
Moves outside Study

Selecting again the way I'd like to lose: no accusation this turn

We are going to have a logic class when this is over.


miplet, What were you thinking when you said that?
Sorry for shushing you, by the way. No offence meant.

Just before your move, I was confident that you did not have Conservatory, and I knew no-one else did, so I expected you to move there, suggest, and be right. I was befuddled when you stayed in lounge and then compounded that with an accusation that was wrong. Stunned and kept from bed for near 3 hours.

That game was big on spreadsheet checking, with a few tricky decisions for most/all of us. Nice!
