Mafia LXXII: Star Trek Universe. Day 1. Mind Your Peace and Q.
Silenced:
ThePerm back in a mafia game makes this even more of an all-star round.
Mop it up:
Lame. Rygar was there when I checked! What's there to figure out? Just jump in!
Stratos:
Glad to see Perm is joining us. I'm not ready to vote him out yet though. Not a very appreciative thing to do to a pinch hitter.
Still torn on an avatar, love your's Tofufury!

Throwing out random votes is a good way to activate the Borg Queen. We should try to limit the voting down to one or two individuals per day and unvote anyone that doesn't seem to have a chance at being bandwagon'ed before the end of day.
Question for the host: Can the Queen turn herself on by voting for herself?

Good question. The answer is no. The idea of the Queen being activated by a vote is as though the Borg heard a signal from this side of space by another race and have now come to assimilate it. Therefore, having the Borg Queen send such a signal doesn't make sense nor does it make sense to have the rule of needing to be activated by a vote if the Queen could just do it to herself on Day 1. The vote must come from another player.
