If I had to choose between HC and Thesp, I think I would vote HC at this point. Therefore, I suggest HC changes his 'I will only vote Thesp so you have to choose between the two of us' policy. Lynching Cap or Mirth would be a far better idea, me thinks.

If I had to pick, I'd go Mirth over Cap because I don't like the way she's telling everybody that the Thesp/Me thing is some elaborate bussing plan.

This is frustrating for me because I KNOW Thesp is scum, and voting for anybody else could end the game today.

I agree that the theory of both of you being scum is ridiculous. I am happier to lend weight to a Capricious lynch, but Mirth's tenacity to the bizarre theory does make me slightly more confident that she could be scum. She's still the third on my list of likely mafia, though, which makes me more hesitant to place my vote there, as we can't get it wrong today.

Nah, that's because Cap is scum with you guys and you dont want to lose your prostitute protect.

SL, so you think it's Haschel, Cap, and me then?

mod: can we get a Capricious prod please? And maybe one on Thesp too?


At this point, while i would *really* prefer a Capricious lynch, I really have no objection to lynching Haschel if Sierra feels like being the hammer. And as I've said before, no issue lynching Thesp either.

(and for those of you who think my theory is ridiculous, just *look* at their interaction throughout this game. *Look* at it. I've been going on about them probably being scum together before they claimed.)

The deadness of this game makes me sad. While I would normally love to drag something out to deadline to milk as much information out of it as possible, no one is even trying to play...

So I might as well
unvote:Capricious
vote: Haschel Cedricson


because while I would totally prefer a Capricious lynch since I think he's the most useful of the mafia scum, none of you except SL are considering that too seriously. And I really do think Haschel is scum.

Nope. I don't believe we have a 3-man (or woman) scumgroup. I think Cap and HC is the most likely, but I can see where the case on you is coming from, so if it really is 3 mafia then I reckon you're the third. If I'm wrong about one of Cap or HC (and I really don't think I am), then you're the third most likely scum in my view and must be the missing partner.

Basically, it would take more convincing for me to switch vote to Mirth than either of my top candidates, but I can see it's a possibility, so I'm open to it.

I would be willing to put my vote on Capricious at this point. Mirth and SL appear to feel the same way, so if either Thesp or Haschel are willing to do the same, I think we've got ourselves a lynch. Capricious might want to comment on this.

Unvote
Vote Capricious

That's excellent, I can definitely get behind that. Capricious is the most surely scummy scum we have, in my view, so I feel very secure voting for him. It's definitely better to get a consensus lynch than a deadline default one at any stage, and particularly now.

If I counted correctly, Thesp just hammered Cap. I'm keeping my fingers crossed hoping he was scum.

You all gather around Capricious, "He must be evil. Get him." So you all jump him at once. When the smoke clears, you are able to see what you've just done. And there lies the lifeless body of
Gypsy
. Uh oh, he must have been telling the truth.

No longer with us:

Capricious - Gypsy [Doctor]

Day has not yet even arrived. The final players all stumble across each other in the middle of the night. After a few moments of looking at each other, Haschel Cedricson and Sierra both jump at Thesp and kill him. After they check the body they find he was the Green Lantern, after a moment they realize it was not just the Green Lantern, but he was actually Parallax. After a momentary sigh of relief from the both of them for finally killing a bad guy, they both find themselves on the business ends of Mirth's and Singing Librarian's arsenal. The two of which stand overjoyed over their kills, and ultimately victorious.

Dead:

Thesp - Hal Jordan aka Green Lantern aka Parallax - Mafia Roleblocker
Haschel Cedricson - Rocket Red #7 - SK
Sierra - Batman - Vigilante

Winners: SCUM:

Thesp
Mirth - Bloodwynd aka Martian Manhunter aka Rott
Singing Librarian - L-Ron aka Desparo


Note: Mafia achieved their victory condition by lynching capricious and becoming greater than 51% of the players. But the setup could have allowed Haschel to tie with them (If 2 scum died to sk and vig), which is why I went to night rather than ending the game. The game was over when Haschel and Sierra both targeted Thesp.

I know I made a couple mistakes here, but it has been two years since i ran a game. I hope everyone had a good time anyway.

Green Lantern

You are the Green Lantern, and yet you are not the Green Lantern. In fact you are actually Parallax, infecting the body of Hal Jordan. You are the embodiment of fear. Worlds destroy themselves at your whim. But it seems that all these "heroes" are going to get in your way. You're going to need some help. So you manage to find two others who are also posessed with evil intentions. Together with Bloodwynd (actually the demon Rott who is mind-controlling the Martian Manhunter in disguise as Bloodwynd and played by ) and L-Ron (who's been taken over by Despero and being played by ) you agree to get out of this place (after some violent killing) and wreak havok on the universe. All you have to do to accomplish that is PM the name of someone you want to kill each night, any one of you may send this choice. Also, being fear incarnate you are able to make any other player to scared to do anything at night, so you may also pm the name of someone to roleblock each night, only you may send this choice. You win when your group makes up at least 51% of remaining players.
Note: If you become the last member of your group alive you will only be able to either kill or block, not both.

Please confirm via PM.

Bloodwynd

You are Bloodwynd. No actually you're not. You're the Martian Manhunter. No that's wrong again. You are the demon Rott. Yeah, you're just mind controlling the Martian Manhunter to pose as Bloodwynd to serve your needs. But there's so many heroes to go through here that you are going to need some help. By some odd coincidence you stumble upon two others also posessed by evil. Together with the Green Lantern (actually Parallax infecting the body of Hal Jordan and played by ) and L-Ron (who's been taken over by Despero and being played by ) you agree to get out of this place (after some violent killing) and wreak havok on the universe. All you have to do to accomplish that is PM the name of someone you want to kill each night, any one of you may send this choice. You win when your group makes up at least 51% of remaining players.

Please confirm via PM.

L-Ron

You are L-Ron. Oh, wait, no you aren't. You are actually Despero. You've just woken up inside the body of this stupid robot. Regardless, you figure you can still do some damage in this form. But in order to survive you're going to need some help. Together with the Green Lantern (actually Parallax infecting the body of Hal Jordan and played by ) and Bloodwynd (actually the demon Rott who is mind-controlling the Martian Manhunter who is in disguise as Bloodwynd and played by ) you agree to get out of this place (after some violent killing) and wreak havok on the universe. All you have to do to accomplish that is PM the name of someone you want to kill each night, any one of you may send this choice. You win when your group makes up at least 51% of remaining players.

Please confirm via PM.


Rocket Red 7

You are Vladimir Mikoyan aka Rocket Red #7 of the Rocket Red Brigade. When Booster Gold and the Justice League found out that you were really a Manhunter Andriod they banded together to destroy you. Well, apparently they didn't finish the job, because you're still functioning. And like so many other surviving manhunters, you've turned to training others to be a part of the "Cult of the Manhunters". Each night you will be able to forcefully turn someone into one of your minions and that player will get to leave to teach others about "preserving justice". You win when all other players are dead or gone.

Please confirm via PM.


General Glory

You are Joseph Jones aka General Glory. You have great strength depite being a frail 80 year old man when you're not General Glory. But you prefer not to use this strength. You instead enjoy making long-winded patriotic speeches, and you seem to never shut up. But you can also use this to your advantage.

At night you will be able to choose one person and you will talk to that person (not literally) and you will be able to sense if that person has evil intentions.

However, due to your overenthusiastic patriotism and penchant for long speeches, during the day your posts must follow these guidelines:

1) Must be at least 10 lines in length. These lines must contain complete sentences. Lines with only "Vote: so-and-so" will not count unless followed by an actual sentence. You can use the enter key to make sure your post makes it to ten lines, provided each line is still a complete sentence of reasonable length.

2) At least every other post must contain some sort of patiotic message or message about positive morals/ethics. You must stay patriotic to remain as General Glory.

3) If you fail to maintain guidelines 1 and 2, you will revert back to being an 80 year old man, permanantly lose your powers, and die of a heart attack if anyone at all targets you.

4) If, at the end of the day, your post count is in the lower 25% of all players (this may be ignored if the day ends up being too short to reasonably accomplish this) you get no choice that night.

Note: due to the fact that riktus only made 2 posts, I'll be ignoring the 25% minimum during day 1.

5) If at the end of day your post count is in the top 25% amongst all players, and all posts are game relevant. Then the player you talk to will reveal everything about him/herself and you will recieve that players full role pm (minus any references to other players and roles, if applicable).

6) You may not claim, hint about, or reference these guidelines in any post.
Note #2: riktus already dropped the ball on this one up by pretty much admiting there being a restriction. So now you can say you have a restriction but not what it is.

You win when all evil is vanquished.

Please confirm via PM.




Hawkwoman

You are Shayera Hol aka Hawkwoman. After studying Earth's crime fighting methods, finding evil amongst twelve people seems like it should be a piece of cake. Seek them out. Bring them to justice. You win when all evil is vanquished.

Please confirm via PM.

Atom

You are Ray Palmer aka The Atom. The ability to Shrink to subatomic size can certainly be useful, because when you do, nobody will be able to find you. But due to a slight glitch in your belt you aren't going to be able to use it as often as you like. You figure you wont be able to use it two nights in a row. Every night you may pm me to hide, as long as you did not hide on the previous night. You win when all evil is dead or gone.

Please confirm via PM.

Green Arrow

You are Oliver Queen aka The Green Arrow. You are the worlds greatest archer. Unfortunately, that doesn't matter since you've somehow lost all of your arrows, and they are nowhere to be found. Despite your code against killing you decide that it's a neccesary action to stop your foes here, so you agree to participate in the daily voting. Seek out evil. Bring them to justice. You win when all evil is vanquished.

Please confirm via PM.

BlackCanary

You are Dinah Lance aka The Black Canary. You possess the ability of the "Canary Cry". You figure this should come in quite handy in your current situation. Each night you may PM me with the name of someone to use your Cry on and that person will be knocked unconscious and unable to act that night. You win when all bad guys are gone.

Please confirm via PM.

Phantom Stranger

You are the Phantom Stranger. Your origins are shrouded in mystery, and your powers are great, under normal circumstances, that is. Nothing remains hidden from you. With evil around you know you must figure out who's who. Each night you will be able to choose one other player, and you will learn who that player really is. However you are not allowed to end a crisis directly, you may only guide others to the right choice. This means you may not cast the lynching vote on any player during the day. You win when all evil is vanquished.

Please confirm via PM.

Batman

You are Bruce Wayne aka Batman. You are the Dark Knight and a founding member of the Justice Jeague. You don't know who you can trust here, so you decide to take matters into your own hands, and the night is your time to shine. Each night you may kill one other player. Just pm the name of the player to kill and justice shall be served swiftly. You win when all bad guys are vanquished.

Please confirm via PM.

Gypsy

You are Cindy Reynolds aka Gypsy. You have the ability to cast illusions and camouflage your self and someone near you. However something is limiting this power and camouflaging yourself isn't working, but you can still use it on other people. How odd. Each night you will be able to use this ability to hide another person, so the evil forces will not be able to find him/her. You win when all evil is vanquished.

Please confirm via PM.

This was my first game with a post restriction and it was hard work making up all those posts ..

I was quite sure of cierco/SL in this game along along with Mirth. Also in the end, i was quite sure Sierra was town for some reason. Thesp played a good game - had me completely fooled ..

Town sort of didn't help their cause by not talking much before both the deadlines .. Roffman not claiming and then dying was bad for us ..

On the whole a game i enjoyed playing (and enjoyed watching after i was dead) ..

I told you guys there were 3 scum...and none of you believed me ^____^

I can't believe Sierra didnt NK me like he promised. I totally deserved it for my bullshit claim. (I had to think of something that might show me as not-martian manhunter to any of the investigative roles)

Also, Thesp, why didn't you tell us you were a roleblocker? That would have been useful to know...

Damn. I thought Sierra was going to kill Mirth, and that's why I went for Thesp. My plan was to declare SL to be RR#7 the next day and ride that to victory.

Good game, scum. Even when I knew who you were, I couldn't do anything about it.

I honestly thought there were only two scum and I thought I could get Thesp lynched.

I thought something was horribly wrong with SL when he kept finding me more suspicious than the person who was actively calling him the Joker. That should red flags.

Well, we've all missed things here.

The climax of this game was the dumbass lynch of Khelvaster, a real town-driven wagon. The rest was a breezy wrap up of loose ends for scum.
