Spyfall 3

[Louisistan]

Yup. Vote:Aerso for sure this time.

[Randomain]

On board for Aerso being the spy

[Aersoldorf]

Are we at the North Pole or a ski resort?

[Louisistan]

Hell no

[Aersoldorf]

You've got me, now tell me

[Ater Nox]

The location was the Statue of Liberty.

Good game everyone. This one might have been a bit tricky as most of the clues Aerso got were pretty vague while the location was quite specific. TCL's question at the end there was a good play to really test his suspicions out.

Balance wise, do we think that this was a bit too tricky for the spy?

I wouldn't mind playing in the next game, so if someone else wants to host feel free to jump in.

I liked your answer TCL, that must've really thrown Aerso off.

[Aersoldorf]

I had absolutely no idea where we were. I thought the time question was a trap - we were back in time before watches were common so that's why I went with the Sun's position. The baton and uniform made me think of a circus or parade or prison. Visiting yearly ruled out the Winter Olympics but 25 below zero killed me. No way it's that cold there

[Louisistan]

Celsius. Probably.

I was just asking to see if you answered within' the visiting hours.

Actually tried to vote before I saw the second page... but yeah, TCL's question about method of travel smoked him out for me.

If nobody else has volunteered yet, I'll take a crack at hosting the next one.

See, looking through again, I didn't find Aerso the least bit suspicious as a spy:

*His first answer of not really being nearby here - I thought he was a tourist coming to see the sights.
*His second answer really seemed like just random one that didn't have to do with anything
*Meeting a friend here - Went with the tourist thing, I assumed he had a friend that he was possibly visiting as well, or he had set up a date with someone (so instead of tourist, I thought perhaps resident from another city on blind date or something of the like)
*Just getting here after 8 would fall into the visiting hours, so it worked.
*While people don't fly directly to the Statue of Liberty, most people do fly into New York. So I really did think he was a tourist/visitor in the end.

As for his questions (disregarding the first two)
*How much money did you spend? - This works fine if he's a tourist/visitor, since people might spend a lot of money on souvenirs.
*How often and how many times do you come here? - While vague probing questions, some people visit the same place multiple times, and that includes the statue of liberty. The only problem with these questions is that it's essentially the same thing being asked: How many times do you come here each day, and how many times have you been here total?

What was your role, The Candy Lane? You were essentially the only one out of everyone that I was raising the most suspicion for.

[Aersoldorf]

You would not believe how close I came to saying that most people arrive by boat. That would have kept me alive for a bit longer I think

Sure, you can start the next one when ready.

I almost answered ferry or boat to my first question, but decided to go a more vague direction instead.

[Hahiha / USSR]

I forgot to mention, I'm a tourist.

I was a kid on a school field trip.

[Aersoldorf]

I was the spy who should've taken that left turn at Albuquerque
