With kids you spend the first 2 years of their life teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next 15 years telling them to sit down and be quiet.

How do people feel about starting majorities early on? I like to form majorities to clear people. There are usually enough mandatory firings to protect the lemmings, but maybe not in this private game. I have an idea of who I want form a majority on and thus clear, but I'll wait and see if we can get the clue first.

Fishing for now.
And cj, you're weird (just letting you know). I had this whole idea of RFCoin, and it was going to be funny, then you go ahead and RFM yourself.
ANYWAYS, I agree with Rhythmic about the early majority things. In a 10 person game, we want to try and clear people. Each of us already knows one person who's clear (and to my dearest partner, why have you left me alone in the TB? I'm lonely), so why don't we up that to two?
Especially in the first round when we have nothing to go on anyways.

Anyways, I just went to read the physic (sorry about the spelling, that word is so weird) question, and whoever the boss is, it sounds like he/she is trying to imitate dangerouspie.
That probably leaves out people like TanCW, JQPublic, and Mru, because I've never played a game with them that I can remember, or have had anything to do with them, so I doubt they would imitate dp.
I also don't think Rhythmic would do that either, because he's too weird (good reasons )
I kind of suspect christiangrl and bookworm for this reason.

I suspect that it COULD COULD be Rhythmic.

This is only my fourth game, but I agree on getting a majority. I forgot to ask last round, what is an open water bottle. I'd hate to violate a rule that I don't understand.

ROUND ONE CHALLENGE:
Who was the boss in the very first game of Who's the Boss?
Both partners must submit their answer to me via pm. In game answers will be deleted. If an employee team answers first correctly, they get a clearing clue that one member can share with the group. NOTE: PLAYERS CAN FAKE CLUES. If the boss and rat team is first, they can have me mod fire any player via pm. The mod fired player will get last words*.
*last words means that the fired player can send me one last message to the rest of the players. I will post it in game discussion.

Pretty much. I don't think she would go for the 'act exactly like myself' kind of post. I think its someone trying to imitate her as well because she's easy to imitate.
And dp uses WAY too much capitals in her posts, which was entirely left out of the physic.

In the memo, the boss had a lot of pop culture references, for example, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, and Ratatouille. Wonder if that means anything...
And I think that we should have a majority rather than a MoO...
what is sense??and if i am not making sense, then why i say it?? I SAY IT COZ IT MAKE SENSE TO ME BUT WHY IT DON'T MAKE SENSE TO YOU????????? sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!

I put my vote in for Tan. I may change my vote if I see the clue before the round ends.
I really think we should create majorities and clear some people. So, I would suggest the rest of the employees either vote for Tan or me. Whatever you do, please post who you vote for so we have something to go on next round.
Voting so far (1 day, 6 hours left):
JQPublic voting for unknown
scrub88 voting for Rhythmic
Rhythmic voting for TanCW
Let me know if I missed someone's vote.

I couldn't decide, so I just voted the first person on the list (babyjuice). We still have some time during which to decide on whom to have a majority.

That the boss loves restaurants?
Since BJ suggested that the boss was imitating DP and I haven't read any of DP's post outside this game (except very brief ones in the forums), I decided to read her posts in Round 0 more carefully. There are two distinguishing features in her writing:
-An excess of CAPITALS and exclamation marks!!! (reminds me of spud, though she's more extreme than DP)
-An excess of sentence fragments (although a lot of players demonstrate this)
In contrast, the psych question and memo:
-have no capitals, even where they should be.
-no punctuation (including exclamation marks!!!)
-are both super long run-on sentences
Therefore, the grammar and mechanics of the psych question and memo are actually opposite that of DP's. However, since I have not read too many of DP's posts, I trust babyjuice's instinct. That means the tone of the psych question and memo may be similar to DP's, but not the content. Could this show that DP's trying to pretend to be someone else with the grammar and mechanics, but failed to do so with her tone?

Sorrrryyyyyyy I hadnt been on.... ME WAS BUSY.
I really don't know anyone's writing style, but I like JQ's argument that we vote dangerouspie101. Since some people think the that boss is trying to be like her, maybe it is best if we get her out the way first. I can keep my vote where it is (since we now have two stated votes) or I could change to her.
I am leaving in a few hours for vacation for a week. I am unsure whether I will have wifi, so I'm just letting you know.
Cheers!
My vote is still on Rhythmic

Ok, scrub, your logic does make sense to me. I'll change to dangerouspie. I just want to get SOMEone cleared.

Isn't anyone going to share the clearing clue? Or are they keeping it secret to protect the cleared person?

Well, our boss is... friendly, and hyperactive, to say the least. I'm thinking babyjuice.

I think 4 would be enough to clear dangerouspie or fire her as boss. Well, see how manymandatory firings there are (if any). 5 would do if regardless of mandatories (boss and rat don't vote).
