Story Post: Inspecting Kevan

I inspect Kevan’s bunk! He’s at Boot Camp with me.

(Editted via “An official post may be altered or removed by its author if it is less than six hours old and either no Explorer has commented on it or all comments on it contain no voting icons”)

I don’t see becoming Untrustworthy to be a bad thing, because showing my other Background would be a good thing for me to prove without doubt that I’m not a Cultist.

I’M GOING TO SNIFF EVERYONE UNTIL I CAN SNIFF NO MOOOREE!

Note that somebody posted a bunch of Inspections three hours ago (they were echoed at https://twitter.com/blognomic) and then deleted them. This doesn’t stop them from having happened, and the Expedition Leader has to resolve them in order - but can’t resolve the first one because there’s now no way to post a comment on it.

@Kevan: Scared of being inspected? Ohohohohoo

(I’m on the fence on that deletion thing. I’ve just made a proposal then deleted it quicker than the Slack/Twitter could catch it. If deleted items still count, then I should actually have one less proposal slot right now.

In fact, I could be doing it several times right now, and I legally should have no proposal slots. Or someone else could be doing it - then how can we know for sure that anyone has any legal slots left or just lying?

Or we could argue that since its gone, it no longer counts for anything. I dont have a reason to believe one or the other, I’m fine with both.)

But… no one is carrying artefacts right now? So you’d just become Untrustworthy anyway. I fail to see how that would prove anything.

By the way, this is the first sentence in the rule “Bunk inspection”:

An Explorer (the inspector) may inspect another Explorer’s (the inspectee, who must be in the same location as the inspector) bunk by making a Story Post (the Inspection) indicating so.

So, arguably, this isn’t a valid Inspection, because this story post indicates that you inspected Kevan, instead of Kevan’s bunk.

@Koen: Each Cultist was given an Artefact a while ago.

Also, you don’t get a background revealed as an inspector, only as an inspector.

*only as an inspectee.

Finally resolving this inspection reveals at least one Artefact in Kevan’s bunk. Kevan becomes untrustworthy.

Declaring a randomly chosen background: Cultist.
