Claire and the End Game (Days 6 and 7)

[Fancy Monkey]

Two items to address here:

1) Claire

Unfortunately we've been unable to contact foxxie and never received a Day 5 itinerary. We all hope everything is okay, and are sympathetic that RW stuff needs to take priority, but we also must move on. The character of Claire will be "written out" by our creative PTB. You will be unable to tail or interrogate Claire over the last two Days. Unlike with what happened to Jin before the game started, however, please note that this action should not be construed as clearing Claire of suspicion in Paulo's murder. She should still be considered a suspect, and accusations will be accepted against her. She will simply no longer be investigating the crime.

If you have any questions about this, please PM us. We will do our best to answer what we can.

2) End Game Schedule

This is absolutely critical. In spite of the delay on day 5, itineraries for Day 6 will still be due tomorrow at 5 PM ET. This will be an inflexible deadline. If your itinerary is not in our inboxes by 5:00 PM ET tomorrow, your character will be "written out" and ineligible to complete the game. We absolutely cannot have any more delays.

Day 6 investigation results will be returned to you by 5 PM ET Wednesday, 1/23.

Day 7 itineraries will be due by 5 PM ET Friday, 1/25. These itineraries should include your final accusation. If your accusation is against someone whose innocence you uncover during your Day 7 investigation, this will be treated like a Fork in the Road, and you will be given the option to revise, but otherwise, your official accusation is the one you submit with your Day 7 itinerary. Just like with Day 6, any late itineraries will be thrown out and you will be ineligible to win the game.

We hate to be dictatorial about these deadlines, but we absolutely have to have the weekend to pull together the Day 7 Grand Finale Scene which will play out next week.

If you have any questions about end game, schedule, or anything here, please post them here or PM us. And please feel free to turn around and submit your Day 6 itinerary as soon as you receive your day 5 results and the Night 5 map.

I may be completely wrong, but that's the first I've heard of this. Did it state anywhere in the rules that our Day 7 itinerary was to include our accusation?

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm going to milk my last day of investigating for all it's worth. I should recieve info on my square visits before I'm expected to form my opinion on whodunnit.

I think it simply be noted by the Gamerunners who arrived at the raft and when. Then you send out the results of day 7. Then you accept accusations. Then you parse the accusations in the order of raft arrival.

If you require an accusation with the Day 7 itinerary, that completely negates the final day's work. I don't get the point.

eta: I went a little half-cocked there, guys. Sorry. You've addressed my concern via a fork in the road. (Just don't send that fork to me on Saturday Afternoon!) ;)

[Fancy Monkey]

Yes, please milk your Day 7 for all its worth. Just submit your accusation with your itinerary, knowing that you'll be given the option to change it if you uncover that person's innocence on the way back to the Raft.

So I take it there are no interrogations on the morning of Day 7?

Question. Accusations will be addressed in the order they arrive on the raft, (or in your PM box), yes? So say if two people guessed right, it's all on who sent their itinerary first?

If that's the case, seems a bit unfair, no?

Help me!

ETA: Please and thank you. :)

No, the correct (if there is one) accusation eligible to win will be determined by the order in which that person made it back to the raft on day 7. If you make it back to the raft on step 2 and player b makes it back on step 4 and you both accuse correctly - then you are the winner because you made it back to the raft before the other player.

eta: I would suggest that everyone take a look at the rules regarding day 7 and accusations.

We haven't discussed that -- we'll have to get back to you. My first thought is not as in a scene but maybe we can work around that. We'll get back to you.

What would be the point of Day 7 interrogations? You would interrogate after you turn in your Day 7 itinerary -- You cannot ask about alibis -- so if you ask about places and clues -- it would be a moot point as you would have no further opportunity to investigate those places.

[Rocky Raccoon]

I figured as much, but thought I'd ask anyways.

Thanks :)

Day 6 investigation results will be returned to you by 5 PM ET Wednesday, 1/23.

Here, Hurley, have this Apollo Bar I was saving for Bernard. I don't know what he's up to anyway, and it might help you calm down. Remember that patience is a virtue.
