Lefanis

Also, I call on everyone to say these things publicly, and follow my lead, or I will lead a vote against you.

"I am not the Thing.
I am not working for foreign intelligence.
"
What is Freedom? - ye can tell; That which slavery is, too well; For its very name has grown; To an echo of your own

T'is to work and have such pay; As just keeps life from day to day; In your limbs, as in a cell; For the tyrants' use to dwell

Cren

It is you Dishman.. Trying to spread the infection. VOTE DISHMAN. Few more people are acting strangely calm.. Disturbedyang and Ketchum, I'm watching you!
Just stay alive and kicking, raise your voice when its needed. Through reason you can show the mistakes of others, something violence can't do.

I don't break rules, I bend them- a lot.

Lefanis

Joining the part, eh, Cren? I haven't hear you say you aren't the thing or foreign agent.

UNVOTE DISHMAN

VOTE CREN

Cren

I don't take orders from you, but I'll still say it: "I am not the Thing. I am not working for Foreign Intelligence." Is that okay?

I favor it being Dishman for reasons others have already stated. Vote Dishman

Stabbity

I am not the Thing, and I am most assuredly not working for some two bit organization like the KGB or the CIA. That would be undoubtedly not British.
Life is a dance, it is only fitting that death sing the tune.

Clever way to make behavioral analysis work. We need you to say it, not just instruct us to say it, though. I am not the Thing. I am not working for foreign intelligence.

Clever way of trying to avoid outright saying "I am not foreign intelligence". You are Mossad, aren't you? I would suggest a scan of Stabbity given his erratic behavior if he ever makes a statement that can be scanned.

As to voting an inactive, I had hoped to stir some of them. The only reason people are voting for me is because I've drawn attention, which would be stupid if I had any powerful position. The Thing is likely sitting with the inactives or the casual bandwaggoners. I suppose splitting the vote is my only hope, now. Cren has been less than helpful, and his bandwagon jump against me after seeing a few votes my way are pretty good indications.

UNVOTE: Thomasgriff, VOTE: CREN

I will not vote on first day without concrete evidence.

I will keep watching, but is more likely i keep my vote..for today.

D'Espana

*He tries to incorporate, but finally surrenders in doing so, his wounds preventing him from doing any sort of notable movement*

Aaaaaaah... I am not... the Thing... neither working for... uhhhhhh... foreign intelligence. Oh, for the Queen's sake, this !@#$ hurts... I won't vote for today, as I... don't have a clear opinion. Now, I'll rest... just for a bit... Aaaaaaaah...

DEADLINE 3

3 VOTES Dishman -  Stabbity #63, Cren #76, Penchant #79
3 VOTES  Cren- Disturbedyang #68, Lefanis #77, Dishman #84

Agent Dishman started the ball rolling on the voting. Ironically, it started rolling back towards him when Agents Disturbedyang and Stabbity questioned his rolling. Agent Sonya became emotional about what Agent Lefanis had previously said but he ignored her and concentrated on other things. Agent Ketchum didn't like Lefanis' gung-ho'ness. In the end, the votes were tied and people started grumbling and went back to whatever work they could still do.

Out of nowhere, Agent D'Espana started moaning, proving to everyone that he was still alive. Then Lefanis hit on the brainwave of getting everyone to say that they were not the Thing nor working for Foreign Intelligence but it remained to be seen how well it would work out with at least one agent not keen on taking orders from him, though they tried to say what he wanted them too - at least the ones who were talking.

While Lefanis was in the midst of getting people to proclaim their innocence, it was still rather chaotic after all with the Pit a complete mess, a low menacing growl appeared from somewhere and seemed directed towards Lefanis. To his credit, he had after all experienced this first-hand before, the moment the growl started and people around him started screaming like little girls, Lefanis turned and ran without looking back, even pushing people and things behind him to block the advance of the Thing who started howling in dismay as after D'Espana's misfortune, Lefanis was smart enough to plant himself in the middle of people - as an early warning system.

Naturally, in the face of such horror, no one could recall who was there and who wasn't and no one was looking to see where the Thing went either as everyone was busy scampering to save their own skins. Then someone said, "Where's Ketchum?" Forming a search party, they set out to look for Ketchum amidst the rubble and smoldering wreck of the Pit. In a half collapsed corridor, they heard a menacing alien voice say, "I am surprised M still hired you as their..." followed by a gasp from Ketchum who started screaming for help. When they got to him, he was in a similar condition to D'Espana.




Ketchum is wounded.
D'Espana is still wounded.


Cren

Hmm.. Agents Ketchum and D'Espana.. BFF were wounded. Sonya, can you prove me that you are still human? VOTE SONYA.
