[DAY 4] Turf Wars: Prison Edition

[NurseWilgy]

I see MP has chosen to be generous in helping you complete your task, inmates. Bear in mind that I shall not be so lenient.

That's all I've got for now, I don't really remember the rest so well.

Excellent work my newly-incarcerated colleague. If your suspicions are correct then this would only require us to get four more correct to put Operation IVY into action. Is anyone open to the idea of using 888206's suggestions as a "final answer" to see if we can put ourselves on the right track and narrow down our choices for the other quotes?

Prisoner 888 also had #8 & #15 in their previous post so I'm not sure why they aren't yellow in this post of theirs as well. It's pretty well agreed that 15 is sig too so, I'd be ok with submitting 4,6,7,8,10,11 and 15 if others agree. Then we could cross off those players and quotes if they're correct.

That's right - I only colored the ones that I changed. #8 and #15 were already right.

[Golf]

Just a reminder: if we are to use the Audience lifeline, we should decide to do so within the next uhm 5-6 hours or so, otherwise the 24-hour response window will end past our deadline tomorrow.

I also agree that, if homie88's insight is solid (including confirming #8 and #15), we should give it another go to try to associate the rest of the quotes with the remaining players and then maybe decide on lifelines.

[Lunatella]

Sorry for being out of it, I don't wanna let you guys down D:

Okie, so I specifically remember ika saying the poop quote. I also remember either MM or Wilgy saying the "Handsome sock or beautiful daisy" quote.

You are totally right. Wilgy said the thing, then MM responded with "Beautiful Sock or Handsome Daisy".

Let's use those lifelines. We only need 10 out of 15 to win this.

[2 Stupid Dogs]

LIFELINES
1. 50:50 - Select 1 quote. We will tell you the names of two players who may have said it; one is the correct answer, one is not.

2. Phone a Friend - Choose 1 of the following 9 friends: Black Rock, chaindeath, Matt, Nerolunar, Scotty, Serge, Soneji, S~V~S, and thellama73. Then select 1 quote. We will PM that player with the quote; that player will then have 2 hours maximum to respond back to the PM with the correct answer. If they do not respond in time, you will receive no help.

3. Ask the Audience - Select 1 quote. The "audience" will be shown that quote and given 24 hours to vote on whichever player they think is the correct answer. We will then provide the results for your viewing.[/quote][/spoiler]
Let me know when you'd like to use them by bolding and underlining something to the effect of "USE 50:50 LIFELINE", and I'll take care of it.

Each lifeline has only one use. So once you use it, it will be gone. If one of you elects to use a lifeline, I will assume that as an election for the whole group.

1. We need to decide on a 50/50 quote, and get it in there. We should definitely be offering suggestions as to which one.

2. Who is likely to be available in the 2-hour timeframe? Who is town and likely to truly help?

3. I assume the audience must be players in the main thread, right? This one is most likely to give us a good result, I think.

[Young Lady]

Audience could be spectator chat as well

[Lunatella]

IIRC Scotty was the "most" active of the peeps, so if making sure we get an answer is priority I'd go that route.

Do these lifelines only exist for today's challenge or are they kept throughout our stay here?

As for #2 the two hour time frame I would suggest we not use Black Rock because she has limited availability. SVS would be a good choice EXCEPT she works all day so the request to her would have to come in the evening. She sometimes comes in to comment during the day but I don't think we can depend on that. I don't know if we want to risk it with her. Unfortunately I don't know about chaindeath, Matt, Nero, Serge, Soneji, and llama. I do know that the llama is American and works during the day. He sometimes works late. I'll check his post times in Rocky and Bullwinkle.

[Tangrowth]

They are unique to today's challenge.

[Phoebe Buffay]

Ok, knowing Scotty was most active is a big help. I looked at llama's game which he is hosting and his game posts were all in the 11:00 am - 12:00 pm bracket. One night he had a ton of posts in the 9:00 - 9:30 or 10 time frame (I think they were playing a game) and then the other posts were in the 4:00 pm to 2:00 am time frame. So, all over the board but he was hosting so knew he had to get on at 11:00 ish for the posts. Scotty may be our best bet. I think he'll take the responsibility seriously too.

[2 Stupid Dogs]

Is there a rule about not revealing our real identities here? I assume there is. Is it in our best interest to endeavor to hide our identities from each other?

[Tangrowth]

RULES & PROCEDURES

Rules
4. No role outing of yourself or anyone else.
5. No identity outing of yourself or anyone else (i.e., MovingPictures07).
6. No dumping main game or player-specific information into the thread. This includes anything from your past life in the main thread, if you had one, as well as current prison-based information such as your cell number or cellmate.
7. You may, however, alignment claim truthfully or falsely, although it is not necessarily recommended.

[Saito]

I had a sudden engagement that drew me away for a bit. I'll read up on our progress now.

[Saito]

I like what you've got so far. I would suggest using the 50/50 on players/quotes with similar syntax or history.

Is there a reason Epignosis is listed twice or did I miss something?

[2 Stupid Dogs]

Epignosis probably didn't say #13 then.

#3 and #13 are DDL and gleam.

ika-WTF are you doing?

USE ASK THE AUDIENCE LIFELINE about this quote please!

On it. You still have two lifelines remaining.

I'll be sure to update you all on the results in 24 hours.

[2 Stupid Dogs]

Wait. Don't we need some results sooner?

[Tangrowth]

Wait. Don't we need some results sooner?

Not sure I understand the question fully. Ask the Audience is in effect for 24 hours for the audience to respond. Phone a Friend takes 2 hours. I assure you that all the mechanics for the lifelines are within my original post on the matter.

You should be fine since you elected the Audience lifeline within enough time before Day 4 is complete, if that's what you're worried about.

Hope that answers your concern.

[Golf]

#3 and #13 are DDL and gleam.

Just guessing here, but I could see DDL, with previous experience playing here, say #13, whilst gleam could post a more sudden outburst like post such as #3.

That was my concern, thank you.

[Gunther]

Sorry folks, after looking through post histories of the remaining players, I am unable to find any useful "flavor clues." The Warden certainly stepped up his game this time.

Told ya peeps.

[Phoebe Buffay]

Should we talk about what other quotes to send for our other lifelines?

[Saito]

Should we talk about what other quotes to send for our other lifelines?

Would 13 be a good candidate for 50/50

[Phoebe Buffay]

I think it would be because we are not sure who to attribute it to. Lets see what others think.

[Lunatella]

I think #3 "ika-WTF are you doing?" is DDL. Pretty sure I remember him seeing that next to One Piece's face lol

[Rachel Green]

Hey gang I am tired up with spring break activities for a bit so I won't be helping much with this challenge. I'm horrible at attributing quotes anyway and haven't been playing much so I don't know the new peeps. Carry on!

[2 Stupid Dogs]

The 50/50 is not going to help us much, I'd say. We do #3 or #13, and the 50/50 is going to tell us it is between DDL and gleam. Betcha.

[2 Stupid Dogs]

That said, someone go ahead and use the other two lifelines in as sensible a way as you can. I took it upon myself to use one already; someone else do another! Good night.

[Operator]

Ok - I've read through it all. Good stuff everyone. Sorry I couldn't be here sooner. I got lippy with a guard and just got out of solitary.

I'm going to wait a like an hour so we can make out the 2 hour time limit then I'm going to phone a friend for llama and number 13. Since it and 3 seem to be the ones we have the most doubt about, 13 is a more memorable quote so getting some info from someone else who is known to be in the thread and who is likely to be around in about an hour - feels like the right way to go. I will check back to see if anyone has any better idea.

[Golf]

Is #13 the best we can try to certify? How many of the others (besides the ones confirmed by players-turned-inmates) are secured or do we feel certain about? Whoever said if we test #3 and #13 the 50/50 we'd probably get the very variants we are struggling with probably has a point, so I think it should be a different quote.

[Golf]

Homie41, if I'm understanding this correctly, you're calculating that now's the right window to reach out to llama, yes? Does that however take in account that the Hosts would be here to actually deliver the question to llama within the same window or not?

[Operator]

it doesn't - it's a gamble at best.

It's knowing the hosts and hoping I do time zone math well enough and also hoping that llama remembered that quote well enough to either answer it off hand or find it quickly enough.

It's always a gamble and time is running out.

50/50 we can always use - if there's another quote you'd rather use than the one I suggested, I'd welcome it. But it seemed those two were most uncertian and "I'm a grown adult" felt more memerable.

[Operator]

also - I maintain that if llama can answer it - it helps fill in the blank.
and maybe give us submisison. and if he turns the thing up on it's ear - it gives us time to fix it.

[Operator]

and look - our lovely sock host is here right now.


I'm going to jump the gun now cuz our host is here and llama will be VERY soon. I hope.

PHONE A FRIEND Please ask llama about #13.

[Golf]

ok

[Operator]

do you think I chose poorly?

[Golf]

No. I just wrote an acknowledgment quick on my phone, was busy at that time.

[Tangrowth]

and look - our lovely sock host is here right now.

PHONE A FRIEND Please ask llama about #13.

Done. I'll send this in just a minute and Llama will have two hours to respond.

Apologies I didn't do it immediately, I was out and didn't see it until now.

[Tangrowth]

Ring ring ring

We'll see if Llama picks up.

[NurseWilgy]

I see there's new fish in this den of iniquity. Don't let the new fish deceive you.

[Operator]

Ring ring ring

We'll see if Llama picks up.

I hope so - for more than one reason.

[Operator]

I feel like I messed this up. If llama doesn't answer, I'm sorry. I chose poorly.

If that's what keeps us from a prison break, please know, I was trying to do what I thought was best at the time. I'm sorry.

I really didn't mean to fuck it up.

[Tangrowth]

Ring ring ring...

Haven't received a response yet. Just 10 or so minutes to go.

[Tangrowth]

The phone has been answered!

Llama says...

AH damn, I was at the dentist. It's metalmarsh89.

Do you believe that he's right? Best of luck, prisoners!

[Golf]

I see there's new fish in this den of iniquity. Don't let the new fish deceive you.

Shaddap. New Homie would have no reason too. He'd get instantly fried in the pan if he'd cost us the prison break.
