Who's The Boss
Game #3230: Name that Tune
This private game is moderated by RGW4. Please read the rules and contact the moderator with any questions or concerns about this game.
This game finished in 9 rounds.
Round 7 begins...
I just realized I forgot to give the boss a question to answer in advance... so I will add in the question I gave the boss and the answer probably in the morning.
Question: Do you think as a boss that firing people should be as easy as it is in this game? Treating this question as if you have never been a boss in real life; Would you be a ruthless boss and task oriented or would you be one who would rather have a happy group of employees who wants to complete the tasks to please the boss because it's a good place to work?
Answer:
i would hope that i would hire people dedicated to there job and of top quality and extremely skilled in what they do so i would not have to fire anyone if i were a bos but if i were in that position and i had to fire someone i would be fare and honest and with keeping the integrity of the company in mind i would do this task without hesitation i wood never be ruthless tho because i am not a ruthless person respect is earned and this applies to all whether u r a boss or emploee peple watch yore actions and how u treat others
No song clue to decipher...
I hereby remove the gag order on mentioning if anyone received a clue to getting two songs correct. If someone did get a clearing clue but was not able to decipher it... they can share it and see if anyone can help out. Might be interesting to see who would help. However, keep in mind, it is possible the rat is gone and there could be one more round. The clue could have been won by anyone playing this game, including the boss or rat... so just because someone may state they won the clue does not mean the winner is an employee.
I only have one rule about this... I am okay with bragging rights and what songs were figured out. However, I would prefer no one uses this lifting of the gag order to lie that they got one. If someone won this right, they are also allowed to just say they did and what songs they figured out... and not pass along the clue if they so desire. No one should take anything from this, other than they wanted to brag a bit about figuring out the clues which were hard for the most part.

As the mod of this game, I deleted the post by zonahobo... please do not take anything from this. I made a mistake, and I have asked him to change his post; if he still wishes to post it. I would never want to taint the game in any direction; and an honest mistake took place. Forgive me... it happens when you try to put a little more "fun" within the game.

Yes Bo, we are at the end of the game, and we have no idea whether the Rat is still with us or not. That being said, it's always safe to assume that they are. I had to read over the rules of the game to see how the boss could win with or without the rat - I don't do well with details, even though I've modded many of these games, but anywho, I've cut and pasted how the game is won.
Winning
Boss Wins the Game: This happens when there is only one employee left who hasn't already been fired. At this point the Boss is able to fire the remaining employee without any worry.
Boss and Rat Win the Game This happens when the rat and one employee are left. At this point the Boss is able to fire the remaining employee without any worry. The Rat and the Boss then congratulate themselves on a job well done.
Employees Win the Game: This happens when the Boss receives at least 50% of the votes. All employees who voted for the Boss that round are declared the winners of the game.
I was kinda wondering back when froggy was still in the game if she was our Rat. But I guess that doesn't really matter now. Whether the Rat is here or not, I will play as if they are, and the Rat could be anyone.
I am going to stick to my guns and say that I think Radio is our Boss and he lucked out early in the game with that questionable clearing. I don't believe he was 100% cleared. Unless I've missed something.

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.

Oppse.. guess I was too gagless.... Sorry Randy. Glad you could delete. I think I can say I was able to come up with the last two songs... " "Tie a Yellow Ribbon" and "I'd like to teach the world to sing" .. the real thing!
My vote was on Snow .. but I am toying with the thought that Radio as Boss was a possibility that first round and one of the two fired was the rat for Radio. How Bradon got fired is beyond me for that round. Aviator did kind of join in late. I have to say, the quoting lyrics trick sounds like radio. So, I think there is a chance Snow is right, it is radio!
I feel DrHoo may have been skipped because he was the only one voting for snow and not in a majority. I wasn't fired because Witty is better at figuring things out. I think the game may have limited the Boss to one hatchet job.. me or Witty. I can see why Witty would be the choice. Maybe Snow has had good intuition on this. Really interested in DrHoo's take on this. I really feel he is cleared.
Earlier, I posted the brilliant logic that radio was either an employee, the rat, or the boss. Sometimes I amaze myself.
So, I am willing to entertain a radio vote and allow that maybe Snow has been very intuitive in the game and the Boss is rat-less. The quoted lyrics sounds like something Radio might pull. He is very creative to put it mildly.
Just laying out my thoughts at this time.
With all due respect for Snow's perseverance, changing my vote to Radio..
Also, Snaps to Randy for the hard work on the songs.. Just listened to Roy Orbison's song.. yea.. familiar once I hear it again. When you get my age, you have heard a loot of songs you don't remember until you hear them again!

I do appreciate the compliment on my creativity. I admit it's incredible that I am still under fire, but I suppose no one can be perfect. With this few people still left, I think at least we can determine that the Rat is probably gone, and whoever the Boss is must be pretty on edge. I would think that if the Boss could have fired more than one person, that would have happened. I've certainly drawn quite a lot of attention to myself, whether Boss, Rat, or employee I might be (excellent deduction there, Zona). I don't suppose there is much point in trying once more to convince you all of what I think is really going on. The chips are down, you all have your suspicions, as do I. I'm at a loss of who to vote at this time. I'll check back later.
I will now resume lurking silently.

I still think it's snowy and I'm holding my ground. I think she probably made a cute panda bear. Hard to imagine the guys pulling that off.
For what it's worth, we only had concerts, and they were performed for the holidays, mainly Thanksgiving and Christmas. We were allowed to dress up for our Thanksgiving parties in the classrooms though, (Pilgrims and Indians) and we always made Turkeys out of paper bags. We even made our costumes in class, out of paper bags - cut arm holes in the side of the bag, a hole at the top for the head, then color it to either be a Pilgrim or Indian outfit. With how things are now, I don't think the schools could do that. Back then, it was no big deal though. That is something I remember. It's been so long ago. Fun times. I don't know why we had Thanksgiving parties though. Christmas parties and Halloween parties were practiced, but for some reason I remember Thanksgiving parties. Maybe I"m losing my mind. lol Anywho, no Pnada Bear for me - we were a low budget school and the parents provided all the snacks and drinks for any party we did have. For the concerts we were only expected to wear our best clothes.
edit - wait, I am remembering wrong. We had a concert for Christmas, then one in the Spring. None for Thanksgiving, just parties for Thanksgiving, Christmas and Halloween. I think we just got a week off for Easter. It's hard to remember details from so long ago.

I posted the question and answer above. Sorry it is late, took my dog to the vet again. I took him on Tuesday and after an hour and a half I left... not being taken care of. Today, I was there 2 1/2 hours for 15 minutes of care. But he needed it, infected ear. I told my wife if it is still infected in a week; per the doctor, I will take him in to another vet. They were nice, but only one vet and they handle emergencies before regular patients.

I think the Boss gave a good answer. I'd hire them, or work for them. I think it doesn't change my vote, but it could have been any of us responding. When I went to school they taught "participative management". Teamwork. I don't think many of my bosses took the course. I hear the dinner bell..
(added) I think I did find the answer to the clearing clue ..
Here is the clue: Two hungry guys pull off a raffle game and trick a third one to get them all a turkey in this 1959 Movie.
..
The 1959 movie described by the clue was 'Witty Kitty"... she was still active when I got the clue, but I already felt she was cleared and she was fired that round. I wonder if Witty took her name from the movie? 1959 sounds a little old for her.

Wow... Almost forgot about this. Glad I got back just in time. Reading through, I think the best bet has to be Snowy. Voting now.

Hey Bo... did you notice it was a cartoon and the two guys were alley cats?

Randy-Yes.. There was a movie poster, so I figured it was animated. I remember the animated features (cartoons) we usually saw before a movie were of a much higher quality than many of the cartoon fare we got on TV. It was a real treat! So, this game should be over one way or another. Somebody has to be the boss.. I have seen nobody fired rounds at the very end. It happens.

Bo... two things about your last post...
1. If the rat was fired earlier and there was not a majority on the boss this round, there could be one more round.
2. Unlike wolf, this requires the boss and the mod to process the last firing; whether this round or next. If the boss had a majority on them, then I believe the game automatically ends in about a minute after the round ends.

That's kind of what I remember too. The end was more or less automatic.. if the end happened.
