Who's The Boss: Game 2 [GAME OVER]

[Trill]

Mr. Spartan, only the three mandatories would have been the ones fired... Since the mandatories exceeded or were equal to the number of maximum firings for the first round, they would have populated the firing list.

That was the whole reason for our strong majority in the first round when those fired would only be mandatories.

I have only just bothered to read the 1st post of the thread. It sounds fun, but I guess I've missed out on the action. Damn.

I'm confused. so only the mandatories should have been fired? in one of the examples you sent me there were three mandatories and at least one person was still fired.

Just note that the boss can always make his memo sound like somebody else, using another persons likes and dislikes/strong and weak points. -Shrugs-

I'VE BEEN FRAMED!

Thank Zeus we aren't killed when voted for like in the mafia games or I'd be dead for no good reason.

I know. I woulda been killed last year just because I'm from lovely Canada! Where is the justice???

I'm leaning towards Etc because I know a lot about greek mythology, too, I admit it, and that's a bit too obvious for the boss to be Embers. I'm not voting yet, though.

Then maybe it's neither of us?

But seriously I would rather we had a clear majority. I had a feeling earlier with the typo in the previous boss memo that the person could be strategically showing signs of various employees.

who ever is the Psych, next time please ask a better question. ie, are you male or female, or are they higher or lower than the post count benchmark listed earlier, etc.

True. But I think the way we type is much harder to change, or fake, than the things we type. If it hadn't been pointed out I would have never realized your inconsistencies in comma usage.

I'm confused. so only the mandatories should have been fired? in one of the examples you sent me there were three mandatories and at least one person was still fired.

This was the example I sent you for scenarios where mandatories exceed the allotted firings for this round, stating the mandatories are well, mandatory firings that take up the voting list.

Psych Question: "Do you own a dog?"

Remember, you must answer truthfully, but you may obfuscate or encode your answer in any way.

Firing List: You are allowed to fire a maximum of two employees this round.
(because there are three mandatories, all three will be fired, so there go your options )

Mandatory Firings: Phaelyn, Dove, Dancing Lock Guy
Lemmings: Dom, Syko, Mr. Spartan, Nightwalker

Please include a Memo addressing your employees.

Lemmings will always be lemmings (thus they're listed), but they aren't fired separately from the mandatories. "...There go your options;" the boss has no options/choices at that point - only mandatories can be fired since they are equal to or greater than the allotted firings for that round.

You'll notice in that round in the previous game, only the mandatories were fired.

Comma splices were my biggest issue in school, ask my English teachers

I can promise you it will be a wasted round if everyone votes for me, however, I'm not going to complain about a free ride to the next round

ok. that was my fault and the boss had it right. so mandatories only are fired. i'll go edit.

Phaelyn and Nightwalker: you owe me for reviving you from death!

Well, there's two more players that are cleared with certainty. Statistically now, there's a 100% chance of us winning if we play strategically and form a majority each round.

BACK FROM THE DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lucky employees for my mistake.

[Kim]

[Thesealion]

[Kim]

Ah screw it.
