The Assassins' Circle, Kill Thread 2

On Day 1 of the original Assassins' Circle, seven perished.

On Day 1 of Assassins' Circle 2010, again, seven perished.

So guess how many were left dead yesterday? (cue creepy music). Here they are:

  1. Fernie V (killed by me)
  2. me (by Steve K)
  3. DK323 (by rbnlaw)
  4. Dusty (by Finley)
  5. orel (by mlasc)
  6. Jen (suicide)
  7. el monty (suicide)

Kill away, my friends. Meanwhile, I've got Fernie V drinking Sam Adams on my tab (although later I'll be sticking Steve K with said tab).

Side conversations thread here. Because you want to be very careful when you comment in this thread. And I previously had the wrong link to the rules. Proper rules link here.

I am a ghost.

I too am a ghost.

Eric Karros said...

What is MeanB's trigger finger doing? Why is it not gunning down Finley?

Orel said...

Like a cat, she's toying with her prey.

@RB If you cover me now, I promise not to use my kill comment against you

Fernie V said...

Hey, stop talking and give me another.

*makes a run for it*

Steve Sax said...

I have no idea what happened

Steve Sax said...

am i alive? I felt no bullet...

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Lots of near misses here folks.

spank said...

That's cutting it fucking close mang

Nostradamus said...

I'm a bit surprised Jason didn't show.

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Sax lives.

rbnlaw said...

New rule for next year: The peeperun.

Josh S. said...

rbnlaw repays me for saving me by blocking my kill.

Neeebs (The Original) said...

MC: Perhaps, he was the responsible working stiff today.

Steve K said...

Josh covered rbn from Paul and Paul covered Josh from me!

I want more carnage!!!

spank said...

Dammit. I saved Neeebs

Jason said...

Killed by my work schedule.

Pistol Pete Reiser said...

not to split hairs, but, is the time limit at exactly 3:00:00pm, or 3:00:59pm (making the post time 3:00pm)?

Nostradamus said...

@Jason

My boss saved your ass yesterday. I was poised, but got paged at 2:57.

Steve K said...

And I didn't even see that rbn covered Pete!

rbnlaw said...

I've got to read up on the rules. I thought 3:00 was the end of time; not 3:01.

Sorry Josh, but thanks!

Nostradamus said...

@PPR

Basically, 3:01 is too late.

Pistol Pete Reiser said...

ok, so, i'm splitting hairs.

Steve K said...

3:00 counts, 3:01 does not...

rbnlaw said...

Is Marla saved by his initiator?

Pistol Pete Reiser said...

yeah, rules say no later than 3:00pm, so I guess that means as long as you're within that final 59sec from 3:00:00 to 3:00:59, you're golden. phew. i dunno.

Steve K said...

Did anybody die???

Steve K said...

From the rules:

"3:00pm comments are accepted. 3:01 is too late."

Pistol Pete Reiser said...

errr, guess that's actually 60sec... oy, this is what happens when an engineer starts spinning up on something...

Steve K said...

But I think the cutoff rules have changed from game to game...

Nostradamus said...

@PPR

I feel your pain. For some strange reason, a large portion of the commentariat here are either lawyers or IT professionals, who love their minutiae just as much as engineers. You fit right in.

Jason said...

I have a weekly meeting from 2 - 3 on Tuesdays that went long. I can't decide if the correct term for me is a zomboozie or a boozombie.

(pulls up a stool at the bar, starts drunken debate)

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Did anyone else die by assassin, except Greg?

QuadSevens said...

*pounds a shot of scotch*

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Q7: I'm not a gambler, but I got Big Balls.

Nostradamus said...

Looks like Greg died of bullets, and Mr. F and Jason died of self-inflicted wounds.

QuadSevens said...

That you do Neeebs. I was ready for you, but Spank saved ya.

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Q7: Ironically, if Spank was a bit quicker, I'd kill him and you'd kill me. Destiny I tell you.

spank said...

"You are as safe as your last kill"

-Spank Horst


I have no idea what that means.

Steve Sax said...

I still want to kill Dusty.

MR.F said...

Damnit. Sick at home today. Death by sleeping!!!!!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

QuadSevens said...

I'm still thirsty for blood! Barkeep! One Bloody Mary done here please!

QuadSevens said...

*down here. Can't think on an empty liver.

Eric Karros said...

Ok, let me count up the dead...

Eric Karros said...

Yeah I think Mr C had it:

1. Greg (by MeanB)
2. Mr F (suicide)
3. Jason (suicide)

Anyone count something different?

spank said...

@ Q7

That avatar's fucking great.

Steve K said...

Two rounds, two of my stalkers dead by suicide.

Unfortunately, I don't think I'm going to be as lucky with Mr. C!

QuadSevens said...

Thanks Spank. I thought a new "killkillKILL" avatar was in order.
