I'm just advocating caution here. We don't want to kill anyone unless we're sure they're a Thing. That sureness doesn't necessarily have to come through testing, but at this point it's our best tool. If we can come to a consensus that someone is obviously evil, then I'm all for you throwing dynamite at them.

Right now there are two people who had the wire and didn't test themselves with it. I think we should focus our testing on that fact at the moment.

And since I'm no less concerned about his silence than I was yesterday, I'll go ahead and switch my vote to Windows. The only reason I picked Childs over him earlier was to give him the opportunity to self-test.

The monstrosity pretending to be Norris suddenly lights its dynamite and hurls it directly at Nauls.

Nauls explodes into meaty innocent chunks.

The day continues. Only 5 votes needed to test now.

MacReady. I don't necessarily buy Windows testing Norris as a sacrifice.

For the record, I tried to test yesterday. 9ish hours too late. Such is life.

It was my somewhat random/suspicious belief that he was a Thing. Him acting so urgent to blow up child's was what set me off. His actions of you must test your self was not to go unheeded either. Why was he so urgent to have us waste it.

Why didn't Norris kill Windows in retaliation for testing him, then?

Hammertime. I don't want us to get screwed out of another two tests.

EDIT: Wait is hammertime 24 or 48? If it's 48, ignore this. I didn't realize we had one on the last page.

I'm MacReady to try one last appeal to logic.

Why didn't Copper kill Norris as soon as he was tested? His stated reason, that the flamethrowers could take care of Norris tonight while he looked for another target for his dynamite, doesn't make any sense.

As soon as the results from the vote-test come in, night will begin and he won't be able to throw it any more. The flamethrowers can't coordinate with each other, so if we've got two living positively-identified Things, there's a 50% chance they'll both target the same one.

This, combined with his apparent eagerness to kill someone who hasn't been tested yet, makes me think Copper is lying about having dynamite to throw, and is actually a Thing.

Until a minute ago, I thought that Things were too afraid of fire to light dynamite. Undeniably, I my theory was wrong.

How badly do you want to test your theory, Mac?

R. J. MacReady · « **Reply #113 on:** November 12, 2011, 02:06:10 PM »

If you're talking about the same test I'm thinking of, not at all, since it's likely to result in an innocent's death.

Time isn't exactly on my side, so here goes nothing.

Windows, eat dynamite.

Windows explodes into meaty, delicious, scrumptious, delectable and thoroughly Flamethrower chunks.

After staring in stunned silence I think Copper has made himself pretty fucking obvious. Get the rope.
