By random chance, @El Fiji Grande will go first. Ask away!

@El Fiji Grande?

I'll ask @Pengu.

Why is vigilance important?

I suppose if you're someone with a good head on your shoulders, vigilance would be important.  Quite frankly though, I prefer a bit of danger myself.  But I don't know why you'd ask such a thing unless you had something to hide.

@Arenado: What's your story?

Hey, I'm the one asking questions here, buddy. Though I suppose my story is I'm quite security conscious, I like to keep things under lock and key, if you know what I mean.

@Sapphiron Are you more of a day or night person?

I would very much prefer to work only in the day, but recently my job seems to never end unfortunately.

@Laurentus What have you been doing yesterday? 

Oh, fixing various problems for my boss. It never ends.

@Hydra, how important is family to you?

Family means everything. But now I'm old and far past my prime. All I can do is look out for my friends and the people around me.

@taulover How did you get here?

I grew up around these parts, though I often sneak around.

@Ender Why are you here?

I was just passing through looking for some place to call home, I guess I was a bit on edge in the the last town I was in, felt like I was gonna get stabbed in the night or something, well at the moment it looks like I might be stuck here for a while now.

@Hapi Ever After: What about you friend, what's your story.

I'm just a person looking for a little adventure you see.

@Dawcreek whats your story?

Three people have asked the same question since the beginning of the game. I'll let it slide, but try to spice things up a little please!

EDIT: Since there are a lot of newer players, I'd suggest reading through past game for ideas on questions and answers. I would suggest finding the roles list first, then reading through the game with the perspective of who's who. When asking a question, the goal is to ask questions that will not only alert other players that you're not the spy (example below), but to gain information from the answerer that they are (or aren't) the spy. When answering questions, the goal is to provide the previous poster with specific information that alerts them, and others, that you know where you are, but without revealing too much. An excellent example of this is from Spyfall 5, between @Rasdanation and @Mathyland:

Setting - Washington D.C., 1964

Mathyland I'm trying to remember, who won the Super Bowl this year?

I believe it was the Cleveland Browns, though I don't pay too much attention to such things as sports.

Anyone who knows the setting will immediately recognize that Mathy and Ras are not spies, and neither provided enough information for the spy to figure out the setting. The spy, @Sapphiron, did realize the year was relevant, but that was it. In the end the spy won because everyone else voted for the wrong target. (They voted for me, because I was playing like the total noob that I was ) In the beginning though, I would suggest asking simple questions such as "Why are you here" and "What are you doing". (Again, feel free to steal ideas from past games ) Good luck!

I recently came here in search of a job. Thought I'd earn myself some quick coin by helping the folk around here.

@Ruguo What is your preferred meal?

I don't see how that's relevant. However, you like oranges, right? Of course you do. I already told everyone you did. A little odd oranges were left you know where, don'tcha think?

@Gerrick what phase is the moon in?

What difference does it make? Are you asking me to do you a favor? If you are, then come to me in friendship and ask with some respect.

@Imaginative Kane Tell me, what do you hope to achieve here?
