Council Update
Councilor Rhiow here, reporting our progress to the crew at large now that the omnicomms are secured - our thanks to Engineering for getting on top of that.
In light of the recent repoddings, we're welcoming the runners-up in the last election into our ranks. Please congratulate Councilor Lash and Councilor Simon. Archon Yavek has spoken with the remaining council members, warning them against any further collaboration with members of the crew who are particular thorns in their side. For the benefit of the crew, because we must maintain stable leadership, we'll be publicly cooperating with the Daligig. They appear to be accepting the remaining council members' vows to support their leadership - the notable exception being myself, who they still think of as a housepet.
It will be impossible for us to openly support or assist any of the crew members bent on getting rid of the Daligig entirely - but we may be able to use that to our advantage. We've already determined that the Daligig have both numbers and technology on their side. In an open fight, while they have the power to repod who they choose and Stacy still recognizes them as friendlies, we would surely be wiped out like the last crew. But the Daligig want to be off this ship and want to be sure we're all going to be good soldiers. If we "catch" the rebellion in progress and appear to put it down, we are strongly confident they'll hand over full control simply to wash their hands of us. Archon Yavek is also not a popular leader, and any armed conflict could be seen as stemming from his ham-handed way of "managing" us so far. It is our belief that if we handle it this way, we can prevent Punishment to any of our crew members and gain control of the ship.
I would like to caution all of our crew members, especially the new ones, to be careful where you speak. We've learned that Tarrant and Ildraniath came to the Daligig's attention during podpop. It's a sensitive time because so many wild cards are being introduced into our otherwise known environment, often at inconvenient times, and it is important to determine where these people will stand, but please try to keep it to the dead zones.
Councilor Simon will be serving as our point of contact with those of the crew who will be openly combating the Daligig. Needless to say, given what happened to the last councilman found to be in collusion, please try to maintain his cover. We need him here, not in the pods. Also, I personally apologize for being hard to contact. If you need to speak with me in particular, pass word through one of the other councilors or here, through the omnicomm.

Allenby Beardsley, if you could contact the Council privately at your earliest convenience we would be very grateful. We need to speak with you about organization.

What's up?

It's clear an open rebellion won't work, and we don't want you getting repodded. So this is gonna take some careful line-straddling on your part, okay? The big reason we need someone like you is so we Council people who are making nicey-nice have a lot of plausible deniability, so we're counting on you to keep it secret and in line with the plan.
You're gonna be working with Simon, he'll be your contact with us.
[Locked to Council + Allenby]
Susono Inn's a blindzone and me and Simon still live there so it probably won't be suspicious if people go there a lot.
Do we get to go all-out on the Daligig? That'd be the most convincing thing except I don't want to get repodded EITHER.
[Locked to Council + Allenby]
The plan right now is that you guys go all-out till us ass-kissers on the Council call for the rest of the crew to stop you guys. We're betting that if we stop you and shove you in the brig, the Daligig won't repod you.
...That's a bet, not a guarantee, but I'm giving you better odds than if you just tear off and start wrecking the place.

So I get the FUN part in other words. Well I don't mind risking another nap in the snot pods if it means I might get to pound Yavek's stupid smug face in. I'll try not to rough you guys up TOO much.
[Locked to Council + Allenby]
By the way, you can go public with this. We kept it private so you had the chance to decide without public pressure.

If anyone wants to really zap me one to make things convincing, I'm pretty sturdy. So long as it isn't magic.
