And then there were six! Episode 14 is actually an exciting Double Episode, so we'll be using this thread until the Finale begins on Tuesday night. Which is sooo close... 1. Were you intending for Moody to leave last round? How did it come about? 2. How does losing him impact your plans for the Endgame ahead? 3. If you didn't need to factor in Immunity wins, Pairs and potential Items, who would you like to see leave at Final Six and Five? 4. With those factors in play, what are your plans and backup plans for this round? How likely are they to coincide with the plans being made by the other players?

Well. My best chance is to play dead I think. Because I have a reasonable amount of people on the jury I feel okay about. I've put in the work to cultivate those relationships decently well. But my control in the game is zero. But I think a lot of it will depend on where Yax stands. I still think Potter is playing a winning game and my plan to unseat her by scooping up Moody has now been foiled. I think I could possibly beat Wood and Crouch against the jury, but don't think I can trust Crouch that far.

Is Floo access permissible even to members of the jury?

They can still see the Floo Networks bit cannot post in them, even if that was something they were able to do while still in the Game.

I think I probably have a good shot at taking immunity via Yaxley, who is clearly a challenge threat.

I'm trying to get inside of Barty's head right now. Let's see if I can worm my way in there

Sneaking into the final 5. With my switch and flick still up my sleeve. I'll be aiming to get paired up with Yax again next round as he's served me really well so far

Closing in on the mercurial 100 points. Tonight I've crushed 90. 100 points would be big time

If this charm gets through, I will crack the 100 Surely I can get there. If I can pull off another Yax pairing, he can carry me into the promised land

Top five baby! ![8-)](http://images.proboards.com/new/cool.png) 5. It's been a while since you've seen a unanimous vote. Was this last round truly as simple as the numbers make it look? Or was Wood always bound to be leaving there? 6. It's the last round for Immunity Pairs, Switch/Flick Charms and Hidden Immunity Items. Are you planning anything around these? What do you think the other players are planning or hoping for? 7. Something a bit more open-ended than usual: you've only got three more votes between now and Final Magical Council! What are your options for navigating the Endgame, which path do you think is the best one for you, and what are you doing to help it become the direction the rest of the Game ends up taking? And you get a tag too because we need you to discuss some logistics with you Regulus Black. The plan for the next few days is: - Times as usual for Tuesday and Wednesday night. - The Survivor 42 finale airs in Australia from 7:30-10:30pm Thursday. Right now we have two options for the Final Three Magical Council: it can either begin at 7:00pm or 10:30pm. Please let us know ASAP if you cannot do either of these times. - The Final Magical Council will begin on Sunday night (29 May) and end on Monday night (30 May), followed by the Winner and Cast Reveal. Times for this are flexible, and even though it's non-live we'd like the Finalists to at least be online during the Winner Reveal on Monday. Please let us know whether have particular times which will work better or worse for you on these days, or whether you're entirely flexible.

Well, my plan right now is to Flick Diggle away, hopefully exchanging him for Yaxley and ride him to extend my immunity run. I am hoping to knock out Potter, Diggle and then go top 3 with Crouch and Yax.
Right now, you'd think I hopefully can get through to the end with anyone as the possible goat. But I'm not getting too far ahead of myself and thinking I'm automatically safe tomorrow. If I get a questionable vibe, I have a plan up my sleeve to disperse the votes involving a bluff. I can probably get into Crouch's head enough for that to work if needed. As far as Sunday, earlier the better for me, I think.

Thanks! Do you have a preference for times on Thursday (F3 MC) or Monday (Winner reveal)?

Monday, I'd lean earlier because I know that sometimes Finales can go long. Thursday... I'll get back to you on that one.
Also just wanted to pay homage to my glorious kiss of death continuing. It's a thing of beauty and will definitely be a hallmark feature of my game if I am fortunate enough to survive until final council. I think I have a story I can sell and potentially enough of a point of difference from the remaining 4 to make a case for myself at the end.
I have a good shot at votes from HK/Wood/Fleur/Moody. And a reasonable shot to get votes from Tonks and Malfoy. I've actually put thought into working people and trying to do enough to justify people voting for me before they leave. Which I've not really done before in a game. Now... that isn't to say that I wanted people to leave when they did, but I've worked on relationships with people before the majority booted people from the game

Man, Crouch is so frustrating. I hope he loses this game

I thought multiple charms could be cast in a single round??

Just one Switch, and one Flick. So if multiple people cast Flick we randomly draw one of them to succeed.

I couldn't get into his head enough ![:'(](http://images.proboards.com/new/cry.gif) Taking out Yax would have upstaged Barty after his big immunity win. But I'm content doing Diggs, I suppose

Man, Crouch would be an unsatisfying winner. Anyone else remaining would be fine

Take me on, Diggle
