Good morning
When you Love someone, Love them with all your heart as you never know what can happen today!

Good morning!
I was afraid this would happen.
I know that I am not the Boss, although I can point to nothing that would prove that for anyone else. I can't even claim that I've never watched a Nascar race.
Froggy has a solid clear, with 2 fired for voting for her.
Snowy getting fired should clear mocha.
So it should be a simple conclusion for me - HABS must be the Boss.
But I will spend the the round wondering if mocha is really cleared.

Snow's behaviour was somewhat questionable last round, she flip--flopped and changed votes an her arguments were erroneous and she jumped to conclusions that based on her flawed logic.
I pointed out last round how none of the answers ft me, and again, this round...NASCAR? I have spent much time on here making fun of NASCAR and how boring I find it.
What does NASCAR stand for? --->
Non A thletic Sport CentredAround Rednecks.
Not A Sport CarsAround Racetracks
I don't even know who any of the drivers are, I couldn't even name more than 3 or 4 drivers. I know there is a female driver, but don't know her name.
I don't watch racing in general, but if I were going to watch one, it would F1, not NASCAR.
Given her behaviour last round, maybe Snow was the rat, though I am not sure for whom.
And no boss I don't "see what you did there"
Anyone care to explain?
Voting Gizzer for now.

Maybe the dog only brings the ball back because he thinks you like throwing it.

Doesn't surprise me at all she was fired due to the flip flopping and uncertainty. I know I'm not the boss, but if I were the rest of you I would not difinitively clear me.
The problem with the NASCAR answer is that being known to watch a race or two does not mean you like it. My dad often has races on tv when there is not poker or another sport on. Sometimes I sit down and watch with him to spend some time with him. Does this mean I like it? No. Does this mean I'm even paying attention at all? Nope. So, HABS, even if you could provide evidence of where on braingle you have been making fun of it, I still wouldn't clear you.
I am still uncertain if Giz is the boss. She had two votes for her. I have a thought... I need to go back and look at some voting records, which I can't easily do on my phone...

I also don't understand the comment "see what I did there" referring to The "chase" is on. What chase?
Also, the answer doesn't say they enjoy NASCAR but they have been known to watch a game or two...
Now, I'm puzzled why I (a cleared employee and of no use to try to frame) was not fired. The only reason I can think of is that I voted for the Boss and could not be fired. Snowy said she was going to vote for Habs this round if she was not fired - which she was. So, I'm still leaning on Habs as our Boss.
Before I make my vote for Habs, I'm going back through the rounds to see if anyone in previous rounds was fired who voted for Habs and to check on a few other things..
SMILE and people will wonder what you are up to!

There is a difference between "watching" something and having it on in the background.
I don't WATCH more than two hours of TV a week, but our is ALWAYS on when my husband is home. When he goes away for a few days for work t will be on the same channel it was when he left. IF you asked me 5 minutes after a show ended what he had just watched, I could not tell you. IF I am not paying attention, I do not consider it watching
IT may not have even been in a public game, it could have been in the private TB games we used to play, but even if it wasn't and there was a way I could, I am not going to go trough every WTB and WWG I have ever played on here and look for a reference to my distaste of NASCAR. I find it boring ... LEFT turn l.. LEFT turn ... .LEFT turn ... blah! At least F1 are man enough to race in the rain! lol
OF course the crashes can be entertaining, until someone gets hurt or killed.

As to the Boss answer to the question of "vegetarian or meat or a balance of both", the answer was vague:
"I eat both" doesn't say a balance of each but that the Boss eats both. This could be a combination of Vegetarian 90% and meat 10% or any other combination. Therefore, I don't think we can assume that the Boss eats a balance of both.
As to the question/answer of Africa, it was answered that they have always wanted to go on a safari. Wanting and actually doing are two different things. I would love to go on a safari but don't think I would for many different reasons. Still, that doesn't mean that I haven't actually thought about it or that I would not enjoy it - just that I don't think I would ever do it.
To me, these answers do not clear Habs. Unless I missed something, none of those fired voted for Habs.
For now, voting for Habs but will keep checking back in during the round.
Edit: Vote for Habs locked in and confirmed. Also, since we are nearing the end, if I end up in a majority, it is fine. I don't think we will have another round anyway if the Rat is still in the game since there are 4 of us left. Boss and Rat = 2, Fired emplyee = 1, leaving possible Boss/Rat win and 1 employee left. Right?

Assuming the rat is still around, then yes this will be the last round. If the boss stands alone, then there will be one more.

Ok, the voting list last round was:
Froggy: HABS
Giz: Mocha
Snow: Mocha
HABS: Giz
Mocha: Giz
If Giz were the boss, the voting list is actually:
Froggy: HABS
Snow: Mocha
HABS: Giz
Mocha: Giz
That would mean there was not a more than 50% majority on her if the Rat is not in the game or if HABS is the rat.
If the rat is Snow or Froggy, and Giz is the boss, we would have won last round.
If HABS is the boss, the voting list is actually:
Froggy: HABS
Giz: Mocha
Snow: Mocha
Mocha: Giz
This would have allowed the boss to fire Snow and Giz, and either chose to only fire one, or the game only allowed them to fire one.
So, in other words, we know nothing more now than we did before. I was really hoping I could work out a way to clear Giz, but once I wrote it all down, it is clear that she is certainly not clear yet.
By the way, here is the logic for if I am the boss and snow did not change:
Froggy: HABS
Giz: Mocha
Snow: Giz
HABS: Giz
Snow and HABS would be up for firing, but the boss only fired Snow. Still, no conclusion possible.
Yeah, I'm going to vote Giz right now in case I can't make it back. But, I still have a lot of thinking to do.

Thanks Gizzer. Good to know. But I thought the trophy was called the Winston Cup?

Hmm...the Boss doesn't watch NASCAR but knows the terms.
Thanks for the info, Gizzer.

Froggy, that is a good observation about you not being fired. I will be keeping that in mind. In fact, I am going to go switch my vote now to HABS, but it still could change.

Ok, confirming the switch to HABS. Froggy, if you are the boss and got lucky with firing two people voting for you... I don't think this is the case, but if it were, what luck!

What makes you think that the boss does not watch NASCAR? The response does not really indicate one way or the other whether or not she actually watches NASCAR on a regular basis, just that she has watched it in the past. With the wording the way it is, the boss could range from an avid fan to a casual observer to someone who has only seen a race or two.

I didn't know how to get mocha to stop voting for me. Thanks froggy, well done!
You're welcome, Gizzer. I just hope you are really NOT the Boss!

Giz, you can understand my predicament. It is not personal. I think I am set to go for this round. Giz, if you are the boss, my hat is off to you. HABS, if you are not the boss, my apologies.

It was confirmed to us last round that the rat was still in the game.
Snow was pointing at me and indicated a desired to vote for me this round.
The three of you are all claiming votes for me this round which means no one is looking out for me .. either my rat is doing a poor job of protecting me OR ... I am not the boss and therefore the rat does not have to move suspicion off of me, but off of another player.
This potentially being the last round, it would be a very poor idea for the rat to go along with the group and agree to a vote on the boss.
It is only logical that I am not the boss .. unless my rat is now gone and you are all employees ,but that would mean Snow was the rat and she wanted to vote for me this round ...
IT is only 0600AM ET and there are only a couple hours left in the round, I don't see anyone getting on in time to see this, but wanted to get it out there.

How was it confirmed the rat is still in the game? Did I miss something? (quite possible)

I think it was Snowy that asked and Randy confirmed.

We have this round, and next? Please confirm mod! I'm assuming we still have the rat too, right?
Posted: 06:10PM Oct 20, 2014
Snow, you're asking me if there will be another round? From the person who has modded like 40+ games and this is my first...
In all honestly, let's say the rat is with us... we have 5 players, in this case, 3 are regular employees.
As of last round the rat was still here. As snow was the only one fired, if she was the rat, then I am not the boss (why would she set her sights on me)
OR if snow was not the rat, the rat is sill here and since all 3 of you are gunning for me, then the rat is NOT protecting me, ergo - I am not the boss.
