Wow, Dina, you really are that good. I did not expect to win at all!!! Steve, great job picking all that up.

Great game, folks!
I figured I was a goner once I saw everyone's reactions to my first psych answer. My only hope was to try to obfuscate the best I could. I might have been able to pull it off if we hadn't had so many sleepers. That would have given me more people to spread suspicion over, and also time to string things out longer, so I could have baited the line with a few more red herrings. As it was, the first round was too fresh. I could rebut most of Steve's points, because how I play is really how I play, but I wasn't going to weasel out of that first psych question. Oh, well.

Great Game everyone, and thanks for playing
It will be a couple of weeks before I run another one though
Good Luck you all!
Sorry, I haven't had time to write anything up for the ending just yet.
Dina great job as boss, I thought you did well
Made your bed, now lay in it....But you can always add a bedside table, change the sheets, take out the trash...it doesn't have to stay the same unless you want it to.

LOL - maybe you didn't have Antsy Boss Syndrome, but I haven't played with you before and that's how it seemed to me. And then searching and finding reference to an old cooking talkbox helped convince me to boot.
To be honest, you, Froggy, and Zonarita were on my suspect list from the 1st round's question. Froggy is always posting in the What's for Supper box, and Zonaformer (who's related to Rita) is always doing the same. And then I saw that you also loved cooking, and had a food talkbox...
Once the game got mean and kicked Froggy and Rita, I guess I just got even more suspicious and really started to analyze everything you did, and compared it to my "Would a boss do this" radar.
To be honest though, I'm glad my suspicions were right. Otherwise, I'd be feeling very, very foolish right about now.

Not at all. Even if you hadn't been right, it was GREAT gameplay.
This is where I'm a better mod than boss: I was actually laughing and cheering, "Go STEVE!" Then I had to get to work on the rebuttal.
Speaking of modding...signups for the next Spy Game WTB will begin on Monday, June 2.
The funny thing about all the foodie stuff to me, is that linguini with clam sauce is actually pretty low on the foodie scale and not all that unusual in my neck of the woods, where we have a huge amount of ethnic diversity and a sizeable Italian population. I just didn't stop to think that most of Braingle DOESN'T live in my neck of the woods!

I was thinking Smeraldina was the rat not the boss which is the real reason I changed my vote last round; and if the truth be told I don't know if I would have voted for her based on steve's evidence.
I can't wait for the next spy game! Also it will be my 20th game as well.
Real eyes, Realize, Real lies

For me, the word Linguini was something that really stood out. Where I live, we have thin noodles, thick noodles, wide noodles, and curly noodles. We might have spaghetti, but otherwise, it's just noodles-n-sauce.
Usually the only people who use such specific words are those who do a lot of cooking, eat a lot of Italian food, or grew up in a household where someone did those things. I checked for the , and didn't see any so that kind of ruled out the Italian mob controlling the Vampire Lord.

Fun watching you guys play. I think that glitch has something to do with two screens open. I usually save every time too Kay - but my last round I was in and out several times and didn't get back to save. It could be using different computers also. Till next time.
Celebrate the moment!
