I need to actually work out what's been going on these last two turns, barely been paying attention since I got my kill. Let's give things a reread.

But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

Walk into D3 and look at D2

And the guard is on the hunt. Look at him strutting confidently into the Vision Chamber with hyramgraff.

But hyramgraff will have nothing to do with that. He's on the move. Where does he move to?

And hyrmgraff heads into an empty chamber. He's safe….for now.

It's liopoil's turn to look, but he's now surrounded by known rooms. Pick a direction to look in, liopoil, but you already know the answer.

Mail-mi, however, will get to look into a room. Which room will it be?

I currently imagine mail-mi wearing a dark trenchcoat and a bowler hat, hunched over a bit, toothpick in his mouth, holding a gun in his pocket.  One bead of sweat trickling down his nose.

Mail-mi takes a look at E1. Interesting, I'm sure.
Theorel takes a look at B1. Also interesting, I'm sure.
And now it's Tables's turn again. He's already moved once this turn, so he'll have to choose a different action. Which action will it be?

And Tables takes a look. It's like he didn't believe us when we told him that all the rooms are filled with puppies.

And hyramgraff is up. Oh, he's moving rooms around. He's got a couple of choices here. What is he going to move?

It looks to me like moving Row 4 right is your best move here.  Puts you in a position to scout a couple more rooms, puts Tables out of position.

That's what my original plan was and it still sounds good to me.  Since it affects liopoil as well, I'd like to hear his thoughts before committing to it.

I guess I'm getting the cold shoulder because everyone thinks I'm a guard.  Shift right.

And look at those rooms go!

It's time for a commercial break, but when we return, mail-mi gets to begin this round. I can't wait!

Everyone program your moves in your QT, except for Tables. If mail-mi can include the target of his first move, I'll process that when everyone is ready. Please indicate that this is for turn -6.

If I move into the control chamber, which line should I move?

Moving into the control room would make it possible for you or theorel to push the other person into a red room.  Because of that, I would shift column B to avoid that.

The flooded chamber is locked isn't it?

Yes, once someone enters the Flooded Chamber, that room is now locked for the rest of the game. And hopefully the person inside is able to get out in time. But no one else may enter.

Right, the danger would be that I could push you into that room.  It is highly improbable that I would do so and it would be immediately deadly.
But if it is, say, an acid chamber, I could push you in and then move after you.

I wouldn't do that because I'm not a guard...
you can't do that because I'll act before you get a chance to move in.  That said, it's pointless for me to stay here.

It would be better for you to look at E-1 or D-2, than to look at B-1 which has been looked at by both me and hyramgraff when we can't both be guards, and I didn't just say: "hyramgraff's a guard, he tried to kill me."

BTW, liopoil is on leave for now. I believe he will return next week. Then there's GenCon, so my own time will be limited, but we'll burn that bridge when we get to it.

Unless liopoil gets a long stretch of internet time to allow him to plot and plan accordingly, expect this game to languish just a bit.

Sorry, I left that a question mark, but in actuality, when it was your turn to look, there was nothing new to see. Someone moved the rooms so you were no longer surrounded by hidden rooms. So for that reason, I skipped that part of your turn.

We are now at the programming phase. I'll change that question mark so that you looked at whatever. It didn't matter. Your look action became obsolete through someone else's actions.
