[R2] Aug 5th - Third Vote
(vote results Friday Aug 8th)

It's down to Gennaro, Danby, and Khaner. So who's everyone voting for?

I'm going for Khaner all the way; I'm interested to see Cassie's reaction/breakdown. Gennaro I'm ambivalent about and I think the longer Danby has to study the effects around him, the more information we might get from him going.

I agree with keeping Danby around for as long as possible. As for who I will choose from the other two...not totally sure yet

I voted for Gennaro, because I think he's the least interesting of three. I'd like to see more of Khaner, and I just don't want to see Danby die.

Looks like things aren't going that way, though Sad

I feel that if Danby wants to be infected, then lets infect him. Especially when one of the other choices HAS TWO KIDS. I do not want Gennaro to be killed. That's just morbid, Larval ;P

I'm sure that they're ALL going to die eventually, including the poor gambling daddy.

Well, if everyone left but Hale is going to die, I want the boring ones to die first Wink

Of course, we don't know for sure that they'll all die... I want at least one to turn fully chimera, and rampage.

Hah! Good point. And yeah that would be really frickin awesome.

BTW, here are all of today's new evaluations about this weeks candidates.
Quote:
Nov. 21st, 1950

1st Lt Glenn Khaner
I was distracted during my session with Glenn. He is still in denial, still assuring me that everything will be fine. There is some desperation in assertions. Reality is difficult to ignore.
I still can't face the fact that my he is eligble for this week's injection. Now who's avoiding reality?

Capt. Frank Gennaro
I am most torn about Capt. Gennaro. It's difficult to separate out his fitness as a scientific candidate from the fact that he has a family. I am also concerned about the affect choosing him will have on the other's morale. Several of the men have expressed their concern.
As the days go on, Gennaro seems to become more and more on edge. Not in quite the same way as the other men. He becomes keener, more alert, more alive. It is all, in some way, an exciting roll of the die for him.

Lt Kenneth Danby
It's hard to decide if Danby better serves the project as a subject or as a researcher. The others have become a particular group unto themselves. They are the focus of all our attention, but unlike everyone else in the compound, they have nothing to do. Danby is the exception and this gives him a different status among the survivors. They see him as someone who has some information -- which is true, even if it isn't exactly the information they want. (They are, of course, trying to determine who will be picked next.) Still, he is in the lab, and they are desperate for anything he can tell them.

After that, now I really want to see how she reacts if Khaner is picked (which seems likely looking at the current percentages).

I thought that at least one of the subjects was confirmed as surviving through some trailer leak or something. Maybe I'm completely wrong though. Very Happy

The first subject tested was named Capelli. He didn't actually die... and it's known that in the actual game there's a Capelli in Hale's squad.

As for everyone else... most of us seem to want expect them to die horrible deaths.

I'd say they're all pretty boring up until this point. In fact, the most interesting things come out of them once they're dead. So, by that logic, we should kill the most interesting people because they will produce the most interesting post-injection game material. Nes pas?

Don't forget that sometime after the conclusion of Project Abraham (aka Fall of Man) American troops are still vulnerable to the Chimeran Virus. If Project Abraham succeeded in learning something about the virus, the Amercan troops at least would have been inoculated when preparing to land in the UK.

This implies the inherent failure of PA in one of two ways:

1) The Project is interrupted before Hale is injected, and his natural immunity is never discovered until later.

2) Hale's immunity is a product of Project Abraham, however either the Project is interrupted prematurely or they are unable to replicate the results.

The second is unlikely, as the US Army would almost certainly never send someone as valuable as Hale into combat if they knew his importance in the imminent American/Chimeran War.

Therefore I'm pretty sure the Project will be interrupted before Hale is injected, perhaps due to a full-blown Conversion as mentioned above... but in any case, due to our knowledge of later events, Hale will NOT be injected during Project Abraham.
