12/02 12:15 (UTC) (Kevan) Bucky’s Emotions = Paranoid, Calm, Fatigued, Disabled [was Paranoid, Calm, Fatigued] (Bucky has become Disabled somehow.)
Looking through the ruleset, I’m guessing this was a phaser shot? I can’t see any other reason in the ruleset that Kevan would have been able to do this. (Also, it implies that either one of the Androids felt very threatened by Bucky, or that at least one Android is very wasteful of resources.)
It doesn’t eliminate a vote in your trial. My implied FOR as author is still valid, even though I can’t cast a manual vote.
There are also a couple of other possible motives for shooting me; They might want to deny Team Human the use of the Doctor power, which I’ve been actively using to try and find Androids. They might also feel threatened in general by my willingness to use Trials.
BlogNomic is an online Nomic: a self-modifying game where changing the rules is part of the game. Players make blog posts proposing additions or alterations to the ruleset, discussing and casting votes in the comments: if enough vote in favour, the rules are changed and play continues.
The game has been running since 2003 and resets every month or so. Have a look around the wiki for more information and history. New players are always welcome and can join in the game at any time.
BlogNomic is powered by pMachine ExpressionEngine.
Josh: Observer he/they
Between this and the mission sabotage - and especially given that this appears to benefit me (by eliminating a vote in my trial) while actually not (as it also reduced command quorum) - my admittedly paranoid and self-serving suspicion is that it’s an attempt to swing the result of the trial against me.
