Oh, didn’t realize it was my turn already! Boy time sure flies fast. Well then, currently I’m leaning towards @Seraphitic simply because he’s the next in our (whether intended or not) pattern. But now might be a nice time to try out somebody more suspicious. Well, I don’t suspect anybody specifically at the moment, so I’m fine with the former. What do you guys think?
Oh? Why try it out on somebody more suspicious?
"Curious behavior indeed!"
Is it to confirm whether or not they’re radical?
Granted, I wouldn’t mind going with the pattern, but I also wouldn’t mind picking some other person as chancellor either. But I would also like your reasoning about that.
(I’m just asking this for now for discussion’s sake, I probably won’t respond after I wake up)
Pretty much! That’s what I’m thinking, at least
Well, it is your choice entirely @Pepe, but I think we should continue with the pattern a little bit more. Though if I am one of those suspicious people, I wouldn’t mind being chancellor again to clear myself of suspicion (Inb4 I receive 2 radicals and I am forever branded a radical 
)
And as for the above finger-pointing at me, well, I thought we all were gonna nominate ourselves as chancellors to be honest. 
And passive? If you think about it, only you, @pictoshark and @cjlim2007 are entirely active. Not to blame others, but there are far more passive people than I.

Well since nobody else has any opinions to give, guess I’m defaulting to our regular old pattern.

@thesorceress, if you are absent from a voting phase please say so in advance. If it happens again without notice I might have to resort to modkilling you and we wouldn’t want that now would we?
Government Phase
Our new government has once again the obligation of leading Hinamizawa. Let us pray that their choice is in the best interest of the entire village.
Pepe and Seraphitic, you two may not post in this topic until the government phase has concluded.

#Questionsfor @Seraphitic
When you’re done with the government phase I was wondering if you could tell us why you voted no to your own nomination for chancellor?
@thesorceress @Necem @PocketyHat @Pepe @pictoshark @EisenKoubu @Seraphitic @Aspirety @Wonderlander @cjlim2007
Gather round, members of the council! The government has made their choice, a new policy has been enacted!
“Loli’s must now register at specially designated government offices. They will be required to carry papers demonstrating their loli-ness and must present them to any individual who desires to see them.”
Yet another radical policy! Looks like some people are really not fond of lolis around here.
Privilege Phase
@Pepe, you now have the obligation to make use of your presidential privilege, Investigation. Please make a bold statement about what player you wish to investigate, I will send you their alignment (if you pick Oyashiro, you will be told they are a radical) as an undeniable red truth. You have 24 hours to pick a target.
And this is what I get for my lateness.
I think this answers your question @pictoshark. Basically here’s my thought process: I didn’t like my odds of receiving a progressive policy regardless of @Pepe’s alignment. The fact that there was a pretty good chance that I would get 2 radical policies was too high for me to feel comfortable in a governing position. Basically, what I think happens is that progressives, when they are forced to pass radical policies cease any and all thought of who are actually radicals and who are progressives and they start to argue and try and ‘prove’ that they aren’t progressives. I’d prefer to be more engaged with figuring out who is a radical and who is a progressive than trying to cover my own ass.
So yeah, I didn’t want to be in the exact position that I was put in, but ah well. Yes, I was given two radical policies and had no choice in the matter. I’m not going to accuse @Pepe since it won’t do any good. Let’s see if we can start making some sense of what’s going on instead.
NOOOO NOT THE LOLIS! Damn it all. The probabilities permit the outcome yet I’m quite unsatisfied…

Oh I just realized I made a mistake and said the second result as RRR. It’s supposed to be RRP
Well that puts us in a bit of a pickle. The fact of the matter is that I received two progressive policies, one radical policy, and discarded the progressive policy. Even though I had ill intents in the last game, my intents now were solely for information gathering. And I think I’ve gathered all the information that I needed from this round. I’m flattered that you choose not to accuse me but, at this point, I have no choice but to suspect you. No hard feelings; I simply just let my curiosity get to me.
Now, the hard part here is trying to get all of you to believe me in this matter and, frankly… I can’t. I simply have no proof, except my own word. The choice lies in you, good citizens of Okinomiya: one of us is a radical, and I leave you to decide this based on your own thoughts.
Now then, it seems I have been left with the gift of investigation. While I’ve downplayed this power many times in the past, now that I have control of it, I can’t help but feel impressed by it. Sure, many may not believe my claims in who I investigate, but this gives me quite a bit of leeway for the rest of the game. Currently I have two thoughts for investigation:
@PocketyHat - who I have suspected ever since the previous round; or
@EisenKoubu - who, based on our “pattern” is likely next to be chosen as chancellor. Unless, of course @pictoshark thinks otherwise… If that were the case, pictoshark could let me in on who he plans to elect into government, and I can use this power to prevent him from making the wrong decision. Risk-taking at this point in the game seems pretty dangerous, and I would wholeheartedly support his decision, should I find that he chooses a progressive chancellor.
Of course, the second choice holds not much ground if pictoshark himself were a radical. But since he is our next president, whether we like it or not, I feel it’d be more useful to choose the more variable item in this decision.
Any thoughts, citizens? @pictoshark most especially.
