[Day/Night Game] Trouble on the Citadel - round "LE Part 2: Why Cerberus Is Right For You"

Right. IF two of the questions were mutually exclusive I'd be tempted to give the same answer to both like I did in the joke post.

The question about the races history might be too specific like you said.

The question about the ability is tricky since some abilities might not fit those two choices. Although I can't think of one that doesn't currently.

How about roughly 24 hours to continue suggesting questions before I ask Shepard to pick. If conversation picks up, then I can extend the time.

The narrative with questions and answers will be posted tomorrow evening. Voting will then take place

I suspect some window-throwing, sword-breaking interrupts will be taken during the investigation

Unfortunately for Shepard, her entire crew were acting completely normal. Why couldn’t it be as simple as seeing Jack doing Miranda’s make-up, or Ashley giving the turian councilor a big smooch on his lips...beak...thing? Then Shepard would howl in anger and slam the culprit through a wall, and the rest of the crew would be safe. Safe-ish.

No. Shepard was going to have to actually talk to this asshole sitting in front of her.

“We’ll start easy,” she said, playing her own ‘good cop’ for the moment, while Vega stood to the side looking huge as usual. “How long has your accomplice been on my ship?”

The prisoner smirked, which just made Shepard want to send her data pad spinning into his adam’s apple. She restrained herself with a great deal of effort.

“What accomplice?” the prisoner asked.

She launched the data pad at his head, where it collided between his eyebrows with a plunk!

“OW! Crazy bi--”

“The Cerberus agent,” she spat. “He? She? How long?”

The prisoner rubbed his forehead with his bound hands, glaring up at Shepard. “It doesn’t matter anyway. You won’t catch him -- not her -- because he has never been on the Normandy.” He smirked again. “Give it up, Shepard. You’ve been beat.”

Actual questions and answers:
Is your accomplice female?
No.

Is your accomplice male?
Yes.

Did your accomplice serve on each version of the Normandy?
They have never been on the Normandy.


You may now discuss your suspicions and PM your vote to me once you have made your decision. Character names used for comedic purposes in this narrative have no bearing on which roles are actually in the game. 

I folded too easily.

I pretty much agree with PelaShep's assessment. Whilst there are other male characters associated with Shepard who have never been part of the Normandy crew, they are not potential roles in the game. Also I believe I am right in saying that the agent can only outright lie once each round. So for one of the other answers to have been a lie, the response to the gender question would have had to have been the same for both.

So currently it would seem that we should be more suspicious of male characters than female ones. Also Emily Wong (if present) would seem to be in the clear.

I agree.

But still too hard to decide without any hint about the roles.

Now we will see, how can it work...

Yeah, I actually don't blame any of the female roles for not giving out any hints -even though they are pretty much exonerated- since most of them are powerful roles. The only female role who wouldn't feel that much in danger giving out some sort of hint is Ashley. So if we don't see any players dishing out any hints about Virmire and poetry, than it might be safe to assume either they're not in play or they're Kaidan.

And of course, the male roles are probably not going to give up any hints due to the fact that they could possibly get voted off, especially if they're a not so powerful role.

So the Heroes are probably going to be left in the dark for this round, unless we get hints from roles who won't be in much danger from hinting.

I figure it's for the best if we discuss theories out in the open even if the actual voting is secret. Otherwise we'll continue to have nothing to go on as the game progresses as there won't be any voting patterns.

I'll start:

I was looking at how much each player participated in coming up with questions, since the spy would probably not want there to be any too good questions. Of course, I quickly realized that one of the people that participated the least was myself... I'm not evil, guys, I swear!

Still, my probably-not-very-important-'cause-clearly-they're-misleading(-since-I'm-innocent) findings are:

Apart from Pela, the ones who did the most were Gerva and Reed. (Reed has some non-serious suggestions that made me frown at first, but he came round a bit later. Also he's done the less serious stuff as a hero before, so not overly worried.)
Followed by fylimar who gave one suggestion and Catilina who talked but didn't really come up with anything.
Then me and Romice who were pretty quiet.

There's also the fact that no one was eliminated on night 1. Why did they do that? To throw us off? Or to be nice to others since no one likes to be eliminated on night 1? Gerva has expressed views like that previously, I believe.
