FINAL ROUND

[islandiastaff]

[M.C explains the situation during the commerical break - Islandia's ratings are tanking, so they've been asked to wrap it up with a final episode so that they can replace it with something else. Time to skip ahead to the final battle.

All the while, the Loser's Lounge is drawing closer - by the time he's ready to continue, the Lounge airship is right overhead (emblazoned with the words YOU TRIED in comic sans), with the eliminated players visible on the balcony. Welcome back!]

All right, folks: Alice! Axel! Greg! Hans! Hibiki! Hisoka! Iori! Ivlis! Kanade! Meryl! Robin! Wirt! You twelve are the remaining contestants for our ULTIMATE FINAL CHALLENGE!

Here's how this is gonna work. STEP 1! Each of the remaining contestants step forward and declare your Wish! You have 25 words or less to express it, so be sure you count carefully!

STEP 2! Everyone, remaining or eliminated, votes for which wish they want to win! Remember, you have to vote, but you can't vote for yourself!

STEP 3! All the remaining contestants write down two names as their guesses for the two remaining Spies! Villagers - for each spy you correctly guess, you gain one bonus vote for your wish! Spies - if three or fewer people guess you as a spy, then you can get a number of bonus votes - one if three or two people guess you, two if one person guesses you, or even THREE if nobody guesses you at all!

STEP 4! We tally up all the votes, and find out who our lucky winner is! Let's get this show on the road!

[Remaining contestants - not Losers - state your Wish, in 25 words or less, for your contestants to hear. You cannot change your wish after this. Remember the wish restrictions.

Free conversation between players and the defeated is not yet allowed - there's still the final spy guesses to sort out before that. However, you can discuss the wishes and the spy situation among yourselves.

Vote here!]

So, flaming red-haired guy is actually the detective, but we still don't have a clue on who the last two spies are.

[g r o a n]

Isn't that just great.

[collateraltsunage]

The alleged detective. [SHE'S NOT SURE SHE BUYS THIS CRAP]

Regardless, we should stop and consider whose behavior has been most suspicious. For example, Mr. Hans has sided with known spies in the past and has abstained continuously.

[exfired]

[rude]

I actually second that Hans motion. Didn't get to confirm it [thanks, game], but, y'know.

[collateraltsunage]

[WITH A COMPLETELY FLAT VOICE:] I'm glad I have your approval.

[scarfphiliac]

True. He hasn't spoken up that much, anyway. And you know-

[He taps a finger to his chin.]

Sometimes I've been wondering about this but that girl Ema...she got taken out kind of early in the game. And she's only said her role to a couple of people, so I wonder if the other spy is someone close to her?

[collateraltsunage]

It's possible. [She did suspect Robin.] However... Ms. Skye was somewhat careless with her approach. [TO PUT IT LIGHTLY...] It's also possible the spies logically sussed her out.

[fullonbraced]

[sweats loudly in this corner over here...]

...The napkin thing, right? I dunno why we both thought that was a good idea...

[collateraltsunage]

[Yes, sweat!!!!]

..Yes, the napkin thing. [She's not quite cruel enough to say "that was stupid" to a teenager, but she's not exactly defending Robin.] It was a rather unfortunate strategy for her.

[exfired]

[...he's had worse nicknames but:]

It's Axel. Got it memorized?

[scarfphiliac]

I don't care.

[Actually, yes he does.]

But, I'll take your word about being the other detective now...Axel. So long as you aren't really a spy, then whatever.

[livefreely]

If he's actually the detective though, isn't it possible to narrow down the suspects if he told us the scan results? [Because she's kind of unsure right now.]
