Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Wow, with more then 48 hours to spare (snoopy is out of town until Tuesday night) it looks like everyone is in.

Almost figures that the time we are relatively quick is the time when the GM is away for the weekend

Although not in as big trouble as you would if you didn't have any water with you.


Heavy water is radioactive, and i'd consider that toxic, unless it somehow doesn't transmit that radioactivity? Or perhaps i'm mistaken as to its radioactive nature?

I'll process the orders in a bit, just getting in and all

No, as far as I know, the isotope of hydrogen in heavy water is not (dangerously) radioactive per se... but I figure it does become radioactive when you make a weapon with it.

Round Two: Busy Busy Bartender ... Got spare money?

The bartender was busier than ever, with eleven drinks poured. Indeed, only Hercules was playing wallflower this time...


Jonny and Jaguar continued to ask for sodas, with Vanilla Coke and IBC root beer being served for them. EPW and Atragon also made non-alcoholic drinks, although Atragon's LA Tap Water verges on the toxic; EPW's prune juice, on the other hand, would only be toxic for the extremely "regular" ... Kassi's Battery Acid, an irregular drink to say the least, left no question as to its toxicity.

Skanky Burns ordered a glass of Port, while Spaced Cowboy went with Champagne. Shogun Gunner went with a Blue Hawaiian, just to be different, while Sparrowhawk ordered a Moosehead to complement his other ales. The youngsters continued to order non-alcoholic versions of their favorite-looking alcoholic drinks; Paramir went the Bond route with a shaken-not-stirred Martini, while Lord Nuclear somehow figured out how to get a non-alcoholic Mike's Hard Lemonade, which as far as I understand is just lemonade and booze ...

Anyhow, the standings ... still not one drink has been drunk, of course, which leaves some interesting questions for what will happen next??

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_water btw gives some interesting info. I'd consider it toxic, certainly, altho not as seriously toxic as I had thought... but consuming it alone does cause you to have some serious problems, as you said.

It's not used as part of a weapon, but rather as part of the plutonium production process, or at least could be ... perhaps indicating the possible use Kassi intends?

Rules question:

Suppose I send one nuke to Skanky, who deflected to Atragon, but Atragon deflected to Skanky? Additionally, suppose that a second nuke is sent at each of them by someone else. How would it work?

Jaguar:

Every odd numbered nuke to arrive is deflected, while every even numbered one gets through the deflector.

Skanky would have 2 incoming (one from you and another from player 4), and Atragon would have one incoming (from player 4). #1 to Skanky is deflected, #2 to Skanky hits, #1 to Atragon is deflected. [Skanky has lost 1 city so far.]

The nuke deflected from skanky is the 2nd to hit Atragon this turn, so it gets through the deflectors. [Now both Skanky and Atragon have lost one city each.] Meanwhile, the nuke deflected from Atragon goes back to Skanky. It is the 3rd nuke to arrive, so is deflected back to Atragon. It is now the 3rd nuke to arrive at Atragon, so it is deflected again back to Skanky, where that is the 4th arrival, so it goes through the deflectors.

Skanky loses 2 cities, and Atragon loses 1.

And orderssent.

Round Three: Wallflowers Increase Your PM Length

Round three began with nearly everyone standing near the wall, avoiding the drinks and just ... watching. Sigh. Three drinks were poured, in the most defensive NW game EVER - every SINGLE player has 5 drinks, and nobody's lost a single drink.

Well, you all have full drink trays now. I'm thinking some drinks will be drunk?


code:
Liquid Fission: Round Three
Jonny Coke Diet Coke Coke with Lime Cherry Coke Vanilla Coke
Jaguar A&W Barqs Mug IBC Hank's
Sparrowhawk Kokanee Club Alexander Keith's Canadian Moosehead
Shogun Gunner Sake Fuzzy Navel Mate Asahi Blue Hawaiian

Atragon Bathtub Gin Isopropanol Antifreeze Drain CleanerL.A. Tap Water
Spaced Cowboy Beer Ale Wine Stout Champagne
Lord Nuclear Crown Royal Whiskey Lechaim Hard LemonadeBloody Mary
Paramir Bloody Ceasar Cosmos Rum'N'Coke Vodka Martini



Oh, and although I'll accept any reasonable wording or phrase that implies "train spy", "build bunker", etc., in keeping with the theme - and some good ones have come my way - i thought i'd declaim the official wording, if you don't want to have to think too hard about it

Train Spy = "Invite Wine/Drink Taster" or "Stick out foot"
Use Spy = "Request Opinion" or "Trip"
Build Bunker = "Get Cocktail Umbrellas"
Use Bunker = "Put Umbrellas in Drinks"
Stockpile = "Empty Bladder" or "Eat Peanuts/Pretzels"
Use Stockpile(s) = "Tip Back an Extra One(s)"



Orders due ... sunday sometime. Just so you know, I work in a bookstore, and anybody who's not dead and speaks english probably knows what's going to happen next weekend July 16th (suspending GMing and playing activities for a few days) ...

Note: I'm keeping Paramir in the game, until somebody destroys him. If the Roaches win and he's still alive, he wins.

(Or until somebody wants to step in and play him who's not currently in the game, so long as at least 2 other people have 3+ cities)

Good idea, but remember that training spies and building bunkers are secret unless another player disrupts the process through their own spy.
