#186 - Famous Chefs! - Game Over!

[Fuldu]

I'm going to have to agree with Quailman. Martha Stewart seems off. I don't think of her as a chef, exactly, she's more like a professional super-homemaker. It'd be like calling Oprah a journalist. I mean, sort of, but not really. Also, she's renowned for saying nasty things about people, which fits our Succulent Magazine review kills.

Delia Smith was new to me, but looking her up, it seems that I just missed her show when I was in England. I'm James Beard, the forefather of American cooking.

[mlaker]

I knew Martha Stewart would sound off if I had to claim because she's now a jailbird. I assure my role is town.

[rolandofthewhite]

I'm Iron Chef Japanese: Masaharu Morimoto.

I think Martha Stewart did have a show specifically for cooking at one point, but I still think that claim is a little shaky.

4 to lynch.

Deadline looms:

Three and a half RL days until night falls.

[Quailman]

Not much happening, and a deadline approaching. We've lost two cops and a back-up. I'm not sure (a) what benefit can be derived from knowing what someone was cooking, (b) why Leonidas would have told us who the first person was but not the second, if he's being truthful, or (c) why he might be incapacitated.

As for the latter, he could have tried the Roast Lamb and gotten food poisoning, in which case he is hurting the town by not having divulged that. Or there's a 'doc' who saved someone from Leo's kill and food poisoning is the side effect.

I had originally voted Leo with the assumption that "Obelix might have been on to something" based on his day one voting. Well, Obelix was a backup, who would not have had an investigation night one, and surely never had one, so that reason is out the window. So after further relection, I don't think Leo is a good lynch today.

I think Thrawn (who hasn't posted in a week), mlaker (Martha Stewart) and Fuldu (just vibes I can't explain) are my leading candidates in that order.

Post, people!

[mlaker]

In desperation I'm

Voting Thrawn

since otherwise I'm suspicionless. I think he needs to post in light of the deadline and since lurkers are generally bad anyway I agree with Quailman.

[rolandofthewhite]

Where art though, Thrawn?! O.o

[rolandofthewhite]

That should be "thou".

[Talitha]

Thrawn was sent a reminder about the game yesterday and has read it.

Reminder: Approx 48 hours until deadline.

[mlaker]

Well that would seem that he's intentionally avoiding the game because if he had the time to check his PM's he could have posted. But if he does have an RL problem I don't want to be down on him.

[rolandofthewhite]

Vote: Thrawn

.

What real-life problem does he have?

[Talitha]

Thrawn has 2 votes, Leo, Quailman & Roland have 1 each.

24 hours until night falls.

[Quailman]

bah.

vote: Thrawn

[thrawn1020]

Ugh. I've been kept busy, looking around for a job, among other things. I am a Doctor, with protects on Fuldu Night one and Warpdragon night 2.

Vote: Leonidas

. I don't know if I buy the Emeril Claim.

[thrawn1020]

Forgot one thing. I am

Jamie Oliver

.

I think that we are lesser-known chefs, not really popular ones.

[Quailman]

I was only voting you because you've been lurking. Back to my original suspect.

unvote: Thrawn; vote: Leonidas

[mlaker]

Unvote thrawn

Well that was pretty much my only suspicion. Now I've got squat.

[rolandofthewhite]

Unvote: Thrawn

;

Vote: Leonidas

.

I've never heard of Jamie Oliver, but most of the chef's here have been relatively unknown, so that sorta' makes sense.

[Fuldu]

Not that he can defend himself at this point, but I'd bet money that Leonidas' other investigation was on thrawn/Jamie Oliver. Roast Lamb with Garlic and Rosemary is a very Jamie Oliver dish. I'd been ascribing it to Martha Stewart previously, but this seems much more accurate to me. Our other scum have had what appear to be additional skills/roles, so it's possible he's a scum investigator, but he looks to me like he's who he says he is.

Between this vote on Leonidas and his role-claim, I like my vote on roland. He doesn't seem to have heard of any of these chefs that have come up, but he happened to get one that ought to be familiar to anyone who's ever watched a cooking show.

[rolandofthewhite]

The only chefs that I know are Emeril and Julia Child(s?). I don't ever really watch cooking shows, except for one of Emeril that my teacher taped. So I'm sorry if I'm not intimately familiar with every single chef on the face of the planet, Fuldu.

[Talitha]

You all wake up to Issue #4 of

Succulent Magazine

hot off the press:

On this day, our misadventures brings us to the flat of the only male limey that has ever cooked anything other than fish and chips, that being Jamie Oliver. In today’s episode of this poser’s TV show, our fraudulent culinary composer decides to impress us all with a glorious undertaking of Sausage and Mashed Potatoes with Onion Gravy.

Oh Jamie, please hold me, even the toughest macho tough leather biker would faint at the beauty and elegance of the presentation of Sausage and Mashed Potatoes with Onion Gravy. The difficulty, the skill, the mastery is unequal in creating such a splendid dish. Its served simply to impress.

Yea, right. Jamie, you little flake. You waste 30 valuable minutes of this reviewer’s time with this revolting meal. That nasty gruff leather biker would faint, but more due to the level of insult presented when this slop is thrown in front of him with the delicacy of a Siberian prison guard at meal time. That is of course if the smell doesn’t get him first.

What exactly were you thinking off when you woke up that morning Jamie? Were you looking to torture birds and kick puppies? Oh but that’s so old hat, you have probably served puppy carcass on a stick several times already. Oh no, you had to get so creative this time, “If I mix sausage with potato, maybe I can finally be the evil Mad SuperChef!”.

Save yourself the delusions of grandeur Jamie, this time you have been bested by a rusty dented can of soup. Normally sausage is a succulent delight, but apparently it looks like its mission accomplished after all for you, you have faithfully ruined sausage for everyone. Nasty memories, like a bad childhood nightmares will creep up even at the mention of sausage. Even when it’s seen in the wild, the first reaction of anyone that has endured your torture will simply have to run for the hills in terror.

For this transgression into the world of evil, consider your show cancelled. Perhaps you’re best suited in another profession, like medieval dungeon torturer.

---------------------------------------

In the 'Share Your Recipes' thread, another monstrous recipe has been posted:

Roast

Lamb

Quailman

with Garlic and Rosemary and Rosemary and Onion Sauce

Ingredients:
1

leg of lamb

Quailman
3 large cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced lengthways into about 24 slivers
2 large stems fresh rosemary, cut into about 24 small sprigs
1 small onion, peeled
salt and freshly milled black pepper

Begin by making about 24 small, deep cuts in the skin of

the lamb

Quailman using a small, sharp knife. Then push a sliver of garlic, followed by a small sprig of rosemary, into each cut, and season the meat generously with salt and freshly milled black pepper. Next, cut the onion in half and place it in the bottom of the roasting tin, then transfer

the lamb

Quailman to the tin to sit on top of the onion halves. Cover the tin loosely with foil, then cook in the oven on a high shelf for 1 1/2 hours. After this, take the foil off and let it cook for another 30 minutes.

Remove

the lamb

Quailman from the oven, cover loosely with foil again and allow to rest for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, make the Rosemary and Onion Sauce.

--------------------------------------------

Thrawn (Jamie Oliver - doctor)

got a bad review and had his show cancelled.

Quailman (Delia Smith - searcher)

has been roasted.

It is now Day 4.
3 alive - 2 votes to lynch.

[Talitha]

I'm off to USA in a few hours. If you need a mod over the next couple of days, please get hold of IS.

[mlaker]

Well this sucks. The last doc (I'm assuming) and what seems like an investigative role. This seems like the last day so if

anyone

has any info about who is or might be scum please say because I'll tell you right now that I'm drawing a blank.

[rolandofthewhite]

I have some info, but I'm not sure it will help that much at this point.
