Oh, I mean I want to allow Mr. Goat to be involved in these final stages of the game he's hosted.  

In what way?

Haha, you sound like you're paranoid that I have some special plan involving him.

I just mean nothing more than having him be here in the thread while this is happening. Doing his thing with shuffling the deck and then watching us play.

Okay. I am paranoid because I do not trust you after you faked a Duke for most of the game. I Highly suspect you have a captain right now rather than an ammbasodor and are just lying to try and get a Duke, because Captain is currently useless, making Duke and Assassin the cards to want. And you can't lie about having an assassin in the endgame, so you can only fake duke.

Are we going to do another round of this? Because this one is almost over and I want everyone else's opinions.

Hmmm, yes, I am trying to decide on the most awesome card to use now.

There's definitely at least another round or two for this game. Or do you mean another game?

He means another game, which I would totally be down for. This was fun. Will become slightly inactive when i get RoW, but I'll be sure to check before i sleep.

Oh, I would be up for another game. Though we may want to see if Chasmgoat wants to play this time and have someone else be the host, which I wouldn't mind doing.

You have my vote for host next game if Chasm resigns.

Okay, sure. We could probably do another sign up for like a day, then start the next game. We can use a new thread. I suppose we could actually start that now for signups.

I'm starting a new thread now for signups. I'll link to this thread for the rules.

Players here who want to join next game get preference in the turn count.

Okay, I started a new thread. I think we can actually adjust cards for any number of players, though I'll probably stop at like 10 at most. Also, I'll randomize the player order after all signups.

I added 00kla, Somebody from Sel, and Aspiring Writer. If anyone else from this game wants to join game 2, please reply to the new thread.

Alllllright. Trial by fire. 

I use my captain to steal from @Whysper

Cards: 1

Coins: 7

[Aspiring Writer]

Whysper, please tell me you can block that. Pleas tell me you have a captain or ambassodor.

This is basically a cold war right now... if one person coups another, the third person can get them and win... basically, watch out and play carefully!

I block with my Ambassador.

@Ookla The Female Chicken Let us know if you want to challenge that or pass the turn to @Aspiring Writer

The entire game rests on whether or not Whysper can block. How did we get here?

OH THANK GOD!

I find it unnerving that I died twice, luckily I know how to play this game next time (I always fail the first time I play a game after awhile, but remember the strategies the second time around)
