Who's The Boss
Game #2658: This Game is Boss.
This game is moderated by nad331. Please read the rules and contact the moderator with any questions or concerns about this game.
This game finished in 9 rounds.
Everyone voting will state their holidays so I can make a list. I have reconsidered the PM Vote. That will not happen. As the 1st round generally consists of fish voting you will not get a clue based on holidays until round 2 when I have a list. As an easy first clue, you can clear the player who once had Jumba as an avatar/profile picture.

and every round ONE PERSON DO NOT VOTE.
this way you will have as many rounds as possible.

EASTER- and due to the nature of the bosses psych question, I'm thinking it's a woman (obviously) although this may be a bluff but sayig "as long as she stays in the shadow and does her job" I first thought of SnowMonster so I'm placing a safety vote fr the moment as I'm going to bed soon and have work tomorrow and hopefully this discussion board will be a bit more full!
And also I'm glad we're not going ahead with the PM vote because more than likely it would just lead to people trying to get votes for players they may have a personal beef with! So apart from that this game could be a lot of fun

I'll pick Mothers Day.
As for the post that says one person won't vote each round. . . . . what does this mean? I mean, that's like committing suicide.
Take all sorrow out of life and you take away all richness, and depth, and tenderness. The capacity of sorrow belongs to our grandeur. It is the furnace that melts hearts together in love.

I'll be Family Day, for those of you who don't know what it is:
Statutory holiday in Alberta, Ontario, and Saskatchewan.
Celebrated as Louis Riel Day (statutory holiday) in Manitoba.
Celebrated as "Islander Day" in Prince Edward Island.
Not observed elsewhere.
From wikipedia
I don't always shave my moustache, but when I do, I prefer electric razors! Stay hairy, my friends

I'll pick Halloween and I'm going to check my role.
Family Day, I always forget about that one, since it has only existed in Ontario for maybe 4-5 years. Some made up holiday just to give us an extra day off during the winter. lol
Think the he/she thing should probably be ignored , first is most likely a ploy as the boss has no idea of the gender of the rat, and normally (in most languages, English included) a person of a non-specific gender has historically been referred to as he/him. Besides, the males outnumber the females almost 2:1 in the game, the boss and rat are both more likely male than female.
fish voting for um Lawlor.

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

I'll take Thanksgiving.(American Thanksgiving)
I'm really curious what JJPutz is talking about. Does anyone have any idea? Is this a normal game plan for him?
Anyhow, I'm going to throw a safety vote for RGW4.

Nobody picked Valentine's Day yet? Well I won't. Mine is Diwali.
Safety for 2nd from the bottom of the list... can't remember who it was... something starting with a W, I think.

Snowy, RGW4 is mine (or rather I already fished for him.) Ok, you can have it, but I don't want to be in a majority just yet, so I'll change my vote to the former rat machinegunhill.

Oh, I'm sorry Bobby. If you want him back . . . you can have him. If so, I"ll take machinegunhill . . . either way is fine.

I will pick Valentines day and vote for Days
I'm on Braingle far too long, I stay on the computer from dusk to dawn. Playing games and chatting with friends, the novelity of it never ends.

Who you calling "mandatory"?
I'll shall be Columbus day. Original settlers, push off!
I'll be fish voting for HABS because I don't like all caps and RGW has been voted for.
Never send a linguist to do a physicist's work.

I believe I know who the clue clears. If you do too, keep it to yourself. We don't want the boss getting rid of that person.
Where's the clue located?

JJ the Putzy - if we don't vote we get canned. So I will vote for you. I think old avatar clues are no good, no one remembers my Jumba, just like I have already forgotten your last avatar...
My holiday (since Tax day isn't considered a holiday for anyone [try having it as your Birthday ]) I will take the eleventh minute, of the eleventh hour, of the eleventh day, of the eleventh month...Also known as Armistice (Veterans) Day.
I love the smell of napalm in the morning

I knew Jumba was you MGH but not sure a lot of others will have, especially those who have never played with you.
Phrebh - that is some pretty sound logic you are using there. Maybe I shoudl vote for you because I don't like black and white pictures. Makes as much sense. But I guess in the first round it is best we
But I will stick with my fish vote for lawlor (which has no rhyme nor reason behind it at all).
Chunnie, doesn't really matter if the boss knows who the clue clears he or she cannot get rid of anyone not on the firing list. Chances are in the first round the boss won't get to pick who to fire with the mandatory firings that always occur. Besides the cleared player already claimed it was him.
Maybe the dog only brings the ball back because he thinks you like throwing it.

I should've remembered that. Augh sorry MGH you were my rat last game to...-hits head- I have no reason at all either for my vote, but I am switching my vote to mann551
I'm obviously one of those who had no idea about the clue or MGH's previous Avi or for that matter even what a Jumba is. Hopefully the rest of the clues will not be so limited that everyone doesn't have a chance to solve them. BTW, thanks MGH for being honest. So, looking over the list, I guess just to be safe, I'm going to change my vote to wolvesstar97 . Doesn't look like he has a vote, and I don't want to get in any majority even with so many apparent mandatories. There's always a possibility that someone who doesn't appear to have voted really did or will.
Edit: A small request, please. If you all will kindly bold your vote choice so whoever is making the list can pick it out easily, that would be appreciated. I almost missed Days vote just now and would have put us is a mini-majority, which I am trying to avoid for now.Thanks.

I have to agree with bradon. Clues on things that were said in some obscure game or avi's that are no more are pretty limited clues. I have not played with many in this game, though I have played in a lot of games. However, clues are only good if the person trying to figure them out has to do some digging and thinking. It also would not be fair to the boss to give a clue such as, his avi is an American flag. If I saw that, I would have to change my Memorial day flag immediately so as to not be so obvious!
In any case, it does appear that we have a lot of mandatories this round, doubt the boss will be able to fire any players.
When you Love someone, Love them with all your heart as you never know what can happen today!

Not many choices to fish, so I am voting...myself.
