Épisode Onze: Ze Merge Enfin

[Hercule Poirot]

Eet ees irritant ze way zis round 'as turned out, but eet ees interesting. We 'ave been all over ze map. Zis was a thoroughly exciting merge vote.

Currently ze vote ees 5-4 with myself and Mlle Hopps up in ze air, unless I am wrong or things 'ave changed. Honestly, I think I prefer M. Peralta staying and M. Pikachu going 'ome, so if eet comes down to my choice, I will choose zat. I like 'aving threatening players like 'im around, even if zey are problematic in some ways, and zen ze 27th precinct's threat level will be through ze roof.

But Mlle Hopps ees not online, so I 'ave no way of knowing if I even 'ave zat choice or not, or if I am better off just accepting M. Peralta's death and trying to make plans for ze futur. If M. Peralta goes, I think eet will be known zat I was ze last on board, which ees a good thing. I did not drive ze merge vote. But 27 will 'ave a drastically reduced threat level too.

[Hercule Poirot]

*short message since I’ve stepped away from my comouter* Jake is offering Judy as a compromise because I’ve made it abundantly clear I won’t vote for Grounch or Luci

M. Pikachu ees so good. 'E forced M. Peralta to say zis by saying 'e would only vote for me, Mlle Hopps or M. Briscoe. Eet was foolish of M. Peralta to say this though, because we need Mlle Hopps to save 'im.

And she was targeting 'im last round, fantastique.

[Hercule Poirot]

M. Pikachu just sent me ze diagram (an image) zat M. Peralta sent 'im, and eet ees ze same one 'e sent me.

Question: ees sending images you were sent allowed? I know you can't forward PMs, but in zis case I know for sure zat M. Peralta sent zis to M. Pikachu and eet was not fabricated because eet was ze same image I 'ad already recieved. Zat feels like a grey area in ze rules.

[Hercule Poirot]

Everyone in ze game ees counting on my vote zis round, which ees most horrible.

Also people told me not to leak to M. Peralta, but I already 'ad. Oops! But I'm not lying to anyone, which could blow up in my face as ze swing vote.

[Hercule Poirot]

Mlle Hopps needs to log on, otherwise who knows what might 'appen.

[Hercule Poirot]

If Mlle Hopps ees not online before deadline, zen zat ees a nightmare because eet might be my vote deciding eet, assuming zat she ees already on M. Pikachu.

[Hercule Poirot]

Zis ees such a depressing round. I think I 'andled eet ze best way I could, but I probably should 'ave ditched M. Peralta sooner.

[Hercule Poirot]

M. McGruff was siding with zem ze entire time, and zey probably knew eet. Zat explains why zey weren't pitching me 'arder, even when Mlle Hopps was not online.

Zis ees 'ighly worrying for my prospects in zis game, but I don't intend to die easily.
