if a player picks the correct number = his "opponent" will be the target.
this may look a little confusing - but - if blue or rock picks the exact number rolled, the other player will be the target even if he picks a correct even/odd number - - unless he also picks the exact number in which both would escape being shot. they would not get to shoot somebody for that guess.
Got it. Good luck towns.

alright - i had to wait and hear back from rock about his unique ability.
he used it to break the tie - therefore , there was no tie since he broke the tie and picked blue (no surprise) to be the victim.
From: Tennesseelogman
To: Rockbert
- your unique ability is that you can by PM to me once during the game, break a tie vote. your ability and use will be posted in the forum when used. it would be best if you can be on-line shortly after the day phase ends to shorten the delay in me revealing the vote totals.
based on the above - there was no tie and blue is the only target and normal rules apply.
i also have heard back from blue - the number he picked was 5. the number rolled was 5. (can be verified by the dead players)
BONUS = if he picks the same number that i rolled = he gets to shoot somebody by picking a target and posting their name in the forum and picking a number 1 to 6 and sending it to me by private message. the target then has a 1 in 6 chance of surviving the shot by picking the exact same number and posting it in the forum.
therefore , blue survives and gets to pick a target to shoot at. this is one of the reasons for my delay in opening pm chats - i did not want blue in conversation w anyone before he picks his target.

it is now after 11 pm blue's time so we will likely have to wait another 6-7 hrs for him to read this, and reply then another ??? hrs for his target to pick a number, and another ??? hrs for me to get back to my computer to to complete the deal - so - it is possible (likely) we will need to extend this phase. i will provide an update asap

this forum is still closed except to blue for him to post and include the name of his target and then to his target to chat here and include the number he picks (and it must be exact for him to survive). both blue and his target may make as many forum posts as they want to about anything for the remainder of this phase.
after that i will assign and open pms

sad , sad news - rock is dead.
blue picked rock to shoot and got him w the number 4
the final 4 are blue, akg, 2oc, and v98
i will send out assigned chat pm pairs at or before 18:00 and we will start night 7 chats then after an extended night 7 of number guessing, shooting, and near shootings. it will last for an additional 24 hrs (additional to the 24 we've already had). still no chat in the forum. everyone still has their extra vote intact. all 4 dead players took theirs to their grave w them.

the question was asked
Does a #no vote or #abstain count as voting, so I am not penalized as not voting?
answer = yes it counts as voting. the purpose of the no vote penalty is to encourage participation. if an #abstain is part of a strategy then it shows participation.
it also does not prevent you from using your extra vote or your unique ability during the same phase.
i would not like to see it used at the very beginning of the phase every round just to be sure you don't miss the deadline and get penalized. i would rather think it is after thoughtful consideration. however, i can not stop you from doing just that in this game. and if you know you are going to be absent near the deadline = it could be helpful.
