Quest 1 is only 3 Knights…Quest 2/3 need 4, then we need 5 for Quests 4/5.

Segregating the group into two smaller groups with 2 spies on each can’t possibly be the best plan we can think of.
ooooOooo That’s easy then!
Here’s the team:
annie
scott
rowe
scott and rowe have double stars on my list… (stars are Good) Was hemmin and hawwin over the 3rd to add!
see no reason to not mostly trust jostly which autocorrects to mostly. rob sent him on the quest knowing he already had evil covered? maybe same holds for clyve? but kl3 seeing clyve’s card makes it shadier I guess… Blips blipped a tiny minor comment that made the eyes squinty for a sec earlier… but none of that matters for this team just yet

It seems the safest right now…if we send 3 from this group and it fails, Christien can at least use his card to verify one person’s vote. Then we get new plot cards and that could really sort things out. If the quest passes then we get a SUCCESS under our belt and we get the plot cards. I think it’s the best way to minimize the risk for quest 1. I don’t have any reason to suspect the other 4 knights in my group yet. I’d make it a group of 6 with you but Christien had a good point about kl3m verifying your loyalty. We only need three for this round so it just seems the safest choice.

And once again I’m voting no. I’m good, the team does not include me, therefore it is a risk.
And of course, will be publicly saying this twice, the moment I do get on a team will result in the team failing the quest and suspicion falling on me.
I don’t need to wait for that to happen to suspect you.

Not including yourself as the 3rd would be shady as you would ostensibly know you’re Good!
I’m on board with Annie’s team.

So either you suffered a head injury during a battle for Arthur, or you’re Evil. Which is it?
This is an absurd argument, really. Any team involves a non-team, thus every team nomination involves segregating into two groups; and since we don’t know who all the spies are, both groups could have spies. +1 suspicion points for Clyve.
That is crazy talk. You know that, right? Are you saying you won’t approve a quest until you are on it?
We have to send quests to get decent information. And to win the game. Chances are you won’t be on any of them. We have to vote for quests we aren’t on.

No way, that’s totally different things. I’m not saying don’t pick a team because you are splitting our 10 into two groups, I’m saying that writing out a list of 5 and saying “don’t use the others even though they likely have the same amount of spies” is flawed.
oh I meant the 3rd that wasn’t me - was planning to send 4!
Blips
396
It’s not crazy. The only information I have is that I’m a servant of Arthur; I have no information on the loyalties of anyone else. Therefore, the only logical and reasonable option to me is to vote down any teams without me on them - until additional information comes to light at least.
So I guess you’re the anti-Groucho Marx then.

So it seems like rowe’s do-no-fly list is up to 6 people now. Great.

I am really uncomfortable with two aspects of this selection:
-
There was a lot of coaching that happened just now, out in the open. I don’t know what else to call it what rowe33 did. It was coaching.
-
annie then “marks” both scottagibson and rowe33 with special stars (which is an awesomely cute concept but pretty thin for what we’re engaged in) and chooses rowe33 above Blips (in the order) because Blips made a weird comment?
Had annie chosen Blips, I might feel differently.
There is a second jeopardy that if we approve this team (regardless outcome…and we could argue a lot over the utility of Quest 1 results)…scottagibson gets cards to distro.
I suggest to vote this team NO. scottagibson can choose the next team to be exactly the same…but we don’t put ourselves in the potentially dangerous position of being double-levered to scott’s GOODness. We have zero information that gives us confidence in that.
