Night 6

[youtube][/youtube]

The U.S.S Enterprise prepared for departure from Deep Space 4. The evacuation, overseen by Spock proved to be quick and painless. Once everyone was aboard, Spock snuck off to carry out his orders from Starfleet.

Spock sat at one of the many consoles at the control room of Deep Space 4. The Enterprise was due to leave in 25 minutes, plenty of time for the crew to reach a safe distance from the anti-matter explosion that would destroy the space station.

Spock set the auto-destruct sequence for 25 minutes. As he did, he heard the sound of foot-falls approaching the control room. This did not surprise him in the least.

Image

Spock: I presume you have come to kill me.

Image

Chancellor Gorkon: Mr. Spock, your reputation precedes. Calm to the bone, even up to the moment of battle.

Spock: I have no intentions of doing battle with you.

More Klingons appeared.

Image

Kha'Gar: You did exactly as we planned. And now that we have you alone, it's time to carry out our own orders. We are going to dissect this station piece by piece until we get what we need.

Spock: If you're referring to the technology, it is highly unlikely that your scientists will be able to reverse-engineer our system core.

Chancellor Gorkon: That is of no concern of yours.

Gorkon raised his disruptor and said his goodbyes, as Spock calmly sat in the chair. Gorkon was distracted as the doors to the upper-deck of the command center flew open.
Spoiler:

Surrounded by security, Pavel Chekov entered the command center.

Pavel Chekov: Drop your weapons, all of you.

Chancellor Gorkon, enraged, flung his phaser to B'Varra who caught it, and fired at Chekov. Spock had enough time to draw his phaser and return fire. The firefight ensued for a few minutes.

Image

As Starfleet fought, the Klingons started to retreat. Down the corridor they made their way.
Chancellor Gorkon: Sneak back onto the ship, I'll distract the officers.

The Klingons headed for the evacuation route, as Gorkon stayed behind. Hiding in the darkness of the shut-down space station.
Spoiler:
Suddenly, Gorkon felt the cold, round tip of a phaser being dug into his back.

Image

Captain Kirk: Not this time, Chancellor.

Kirk fired, killing the Chancellor who turned out to be
Spoiler:
the wicked child, Chancellor Gorkon of the Klingon Empire
The three Enterprise Officer's regrouped, and headed for the ship to hunt down the Klingons.

The end of the game will take place aboard the U.S.S Enterprise. This does not change anyone's abilities.

It is now Day 6. It takes 5 to throw 'em in the brig.

That's still an absurd number of crewman killed within the first 5 days.

To add: 9 crewmen in 6 days. Unreal. The Star Trek franchise would never allow such mayhem.

Really? I was kidding about the afraid to post thing.

As for theories, I'm thinking twc. He's posted just enough to keep much suspicion off him, but hasn't really brought anything new. There's just something about the way he's posting that jumps out at me.

I'd be fine with an obhave vote, as well. She's pretty good at righteous indignation (I still heart you, obhave) that could mean a red getting a little defensive.
good call IE.

Any thoughts on another obhave vote? We have to decide if she either a) used a day-block (which usuallly are only allowed once) or b) she can't be killed during the day. Or even c) she wasn't even bad, but that would be really weird.

bhaw - safe
Zarovich - safe
obhave - WTF
beerman - His absence is definitely questionable
Gaucho - I'm unsure, but I'm leaning toward red
Benny Fitz - Also unsure
ulf - I want to vote for ulf this round for some reason
teib - Unsure.


Bhaw, Zaro? You guys want to weigh in here?

After looking at the last 3 votes there are a few interesting trends worth discussion.

Loney vote: IE, Bad Hands, TWC, Shafnutz, PS87, Benny, Zaro, Bhaw
PS87 vote: Ulf, Zaro, Benny, IE, TWC, Obhave, bhaw, Gaucho
Obhave vote: Zaro, Gaucho, Ulf, TWC, IE, Benny

There are 3 people who voted similarly to TWC in each of the last 3 votes, Zaro, IE & Benny. I'm doubtful that IE is red because she put attention on TWC when he was under the radar which seems like a dumb thing for a red to do. Granted this is all circumstantial and I'm sure that the reds would be smart enough to spread their votes but just maybe there is something to this.

EDIT: forgot zaro claimed to be spock and posted about Gaucho while i was writing this so i guess that can explain him away as well

I believe Zaro now. If Gaucho is Romulan, I think we take him out, no?

Benny seems like a good choice at this point. He finished her off.

What is the confusion with obhave exactly? She's dead but I don't get what people are :scared: about with her.

She isn't dead, she saved herself from the brig and is still listed in the crew list

Because obhave didn't die. BadHands did.

I completely missed it, too. It wasn't until the most recent write-up when I was looking at the current crew list that I saw she was still there. Went back to that write-up and saw it.

I'm fine with going after Gaucho.

i don't know much about star trek so i wikipedia'd romulans and klingons and it seems that romulans were more just a p.i.t.a than actual villains. Is that a safe assumption?

In The Original Series, which is the timeframe we are in, this is a fair assessment.

My guess is that they don't help based on what I read.

I guess here would be my concern... what is their goal in the game? If it's just to survive, we are eliminating another person and giving the klingons more numbers. If their goal is to eliminate everyone like the klingons, we need to get rid of him.

I'm more tempted to go after beerman or benny.

To help clarify this Romulan thing, please remember that according to Star Trek cannon, the Romulans have always despised the Klingons, even moreso than humans. So it's not out of bounds that some sort of alliance could be made at this point. It's a choice you all have to make.
