"Time is running short. They're after me"

I mutter frantically as I clumsily rummage through my drawers. There's got to be something here that could do the job. Anything, surely. Beads of sweat start to drip down my rolls of blubber as I occasionally check over my shoulder. They could be here any minute. Ah, bingo!

I grip my screwdriver in my flipper, yanking it out. A few medical utensils clatter to the ground, their metallic wail ringing through the surgery. I quickly turn and make for the door as fast as my rotund body will allow me.

I take the fastest route to the airlock, keeping to the shadows as much as I can. "And to think, I people told me a screwdriver was a bad thing for me to own. I'm going to save everyone with it!"

I stand before it, panting hard. I hadn't moved that fast in years. My eyes water as I stare at the gateway to oblivion. I position the screwdriver to the control panel "Not another life..."

I freeze, hearing the sounds of footsteps and shouting. I turn to see the six other crew-mates running towards me. Before I can even react pain courses through my body as I am tackled, slammed into the wall. I start to flail, wooping in protest but it's too late. I'm quickly pinned and the airlock door is opened.

"No! You can't do this! I was going to save us all!" I scream as I'm thrown into the nightmare gate, crashing to the ground. I scramble to self right myself but the door is slammed shut before I have a chance to escape. Tears roll down my blubbery cheeks as I bang against to glass, to no avail.

Just as the button is pushed to seal my doom, I see a smile crack on one of my colleges faces. My eyes widen in anger and fear, but before I have a chance to warn anyone of the traitor, I am sucked into the endless void.

I was innocent

Crawver it is, then. I hope we're right about this.
Well, you're not, but me saying that won't change anything. It's all been decided so I'll just have to accept my fate.
Or, you know, you could take the game seriously for a moment and actually try to argue why you shouldn't be voted for and who should be. Because the whole reason you're on anyone's list to vote for in the first place is because all you've posted in this thread since pretty much the beginning has been distracting, unhelpful nonsense about voting for the airlock or being a walrus who's comically bad at being a doctor. Which isn't to say that such nonsense is bad or out of place or shouldn't be posted, just that it starts to look suspicious when you don't actually offer anything helpful every now and then as well.

Though, considering you've only got about 2 hours left at this point, you kind of should have started taking things more seriously 2 cycles ago when people (myself included) first started suggesting you should be voted for because of the above reasons.
Had nothing solid to go off. None of us did. To try and pretend otherwise would be pretentious. We lost all ability to have a decent chance scouting out the killer long ago. I saw no point trying to pretend otherwise.

And I had fun with my run. Last third is alright, I'm happy with it for my first game.

@Frappe: Hah, that picture of Dr. Crawver is waaaay more flattering than I imagined it. I thought he would be fat but he's in decent shape. Despite the blubber that uniform is hiding.

@Fat_Hippo: Looking back at my submission, I didn't realize Dr. Crawver's walrus was gray. I just went with the best looking one (gentlemen style) and went with that color. Then again, I personally enjoy this color of a walrus more than gray so eh.
Hey I'm not complaining at all. I personally love what you've made there.

@Zeconte: Quite often the more active players are the ones who get killed and executed first, since they're more visible. Naturally, you end up with players not wanting to post in order to stay alive longer.
There's probably discussion going on in PM's, but that's not something dead players can see.

Are you trying to turn Fractal into a magical girl?

If you mean a metal death machine, then yes. yes I am. It's the only way he's going to win.. You've only got 2 cycles left, this is your last chance to opt out...

@Armadox: I actually think we have a pretty good chance of beating the killer. So thanks, but I'll save signing away my soul for when the good guys are really in trouble.

You got me too .. . not that it matters lol. I'm pretty sure the Killer will win at this rate for sure.
I think it's kind of a crap shoot at this point. Since he killed the Lawyer, the Trickster seems to be unaligned this round. Right now he has the most power because even if the innocents vote united, that's only three votes, and even that only applies if they vote together. But if they do vote together, the Trickster can grab one of theirs to turn against someone else, giving him 3 against their 2. The only two ways this can be prevented is if the Killer also votes with the innocents(giving a 3/3 split) or if the innocents get lucky and target the Trickster(since the Trickster can't target himself with his ability).

Now everyone could go back to secret votes again, but that once again practically gives the round to the Trickster, as he has a minimum of 2 votes with a more than decent chance of guessing correctly and nabbing a third anyway, plus not banding together greatly diminishes their chance of targeting the Trickster together, which is their only way of regaining the round at this point.

Now there is one thing that could change things considerably, and that's if the Trickster has actually sided with the innocents. There's a non-obvious reason for that, but I would say that if this is the case, the Trickster would possibly gain from activating his ability this round to try to stack the deck in the agreed upon target's favor.

Either way, the Trickster is a bigger player than even the Killer right now in all ways except one: the Killer knows who his opponents are.

We should be considering who should get executed next. I'd propose headsprouter next for the big silence.

Well unless headsprouter got murdered but I'd be surprised.

@Scars: I agree with your thought that the Trickster is unaligned this round. During last cycle's voting it was the first time everyone pretty much publicly said who's getting everyone's vote (Dr. Crawver). Seems like the Trickster has his own motives, because it appears he didn't use his role to either add or subtract a vote from Dr. Crawver, meaning he either used it on other players or not at all. (Unlikely he didn't use it at all, because at this stage in the game his role is very valuable).
