HCRealms Mafia #4: HeroClix Mafia

[Peers]

Okay, folks, someone asked if I was going to do another of these... and given that Infinite Crisis Mafia is wrapping up, I figured I'd open signups for the next round.

The catch this time? It won't be Marvel. It won't be DC. It'll be HeroClix themed. What's that mean? Well... you'll know when we start.

Signups open until 1159 pm Saturday, CST.

Currently signed up: 27, consisting of mostly the usual suspects (TMNT99, JackAssterson, biz567, KitsuShel, St-Dumas, Docdoom187, JackofHearts2005, vicious x, antipathy, Melkhor, CarlosMucha, kontrol, theanalogkid, Thawmus, charlesx, Doombot 3.1, Rokk_Krinn, JacinB, batfink, calabolg, IronHam, Magnito, Gambit, Amora's Best Friend, lensnart, Scott Neelan, Sceheono).

I currently have 25 roles written up, looks like I'll need to decide on a few more to add 'cause there'll be more people joining... last game had 25, I'm willing to run up to... let's say 32. Nice, even, power-of-2 number.

[TMNT99]

I'm in, maybe I'll make it past round 2 this time.

[Magnito]

For those of us who have missed the mafia craze until now, what does signing up entail?

[JackAssterson]

I'll sign up. :cool:

[biz567]

What the crazy guy above me said.

I'm in!

[KitsuShel]

For those of us who have missed the mafia craze until now, what does signing up entail?

It just means that you're on the list to play the game. there are several intros to it running around. Its pretty simple and loads of fun.

Put me down for the next one!

Oh, DocDoom187 also would like to be added. He should be good to go with his ban relatively soon. :cheeky:

[St-Dumas]

I won't post as much because i'll have school for the next September-June, but i'm still in. Here's hoping I hope I don't screw up.

[Jackofhearts2005]

I'll sign up too.

What did he do this time? :laugh:

I hope he's not being unclassy and insulting mods over it like some people do when they get banned. :rolleyes:

[vicious x]

Yay I want in :)

[Antipathy]

Same here.

[Melkhor]

Count me in too Peers, I wouldn't miss this for the world! :)

[CarlosMucha]

I will like to join! :classic:

[kontrol]

I may not be as active, but as always I'll be in it.

[theanalogkid]

Count me in.

[Thawmus]

You know I'm down for this. :)

[charlesx]

My mind needs to get twisted into pretzels all over again. Count me in.

[Doombot 3.1]

I'm in.

filler filler

[Rokk_Krinn]

Oh, sure, wait until I start my thread and then post yours. :cheeky:

Seriously though, you know I'll gladly join if there's room.

[JacinB]

Count me in.

[batfink]

Room for one more? :cool:
Why do I picture the stateroom scene from "Night At The Opera?"

[Calabolg]

Oh... why not. ^_^

[Iron Ham]

I AM SO IN!!!! :mad:

[Magnito]

I'll join, despite the fact that I have no idea how to play.

[Rokk_Krinn]

So, Peers, being the Crisis one ended pretty darn fast from when you posted this, when do we get to start pestering you for a start-up date? :grin:

[Gambit]

I'm in Peers. Thanks for the pm.

[Amora's_best_friend]

Can I join?

[lensnart]

I missed your last couple but finally I have time to play again, So i would love to join up.

[Peers]

You're all in, we're up to 25.

Start date is Monday. I need to take a few Mafia-free days at work and home to recover... and make sure the roles are all balanced. In retrospect, Carlos' "Ask a question" power last game was horribly balanced...

So we shouldn't expect Ultimates Thor to destroy us all with his unstoppable, undercosted might in this game then? :p

Out of curiosity, what was the exact text of the power again? Because if all you had to do was "answer honestly" instead of "answer straightfowardly and to the point" you could have responded with a riddle and been perfectly legit, as long as the riddle was an honest one that was not posed in the form of a question.

You asked any one question, and Peers responded for you.

[JackAssterson]

You asked any one question, and Peers responded for you.

Oh. Well yeah, then that would kinda bite balance wise.

Man, it woulda been a kick to have someone expecting a pat answer and getting a soul searing riddle instead. Ah, well, there's always Batman.

[Thawmus]

See, this is why the Mafia keeps killing you. :laugh:

[Rokk_Krinn]

I shouldn't jinx myself by saying this, but does anyone else think it would be hilarious if Carlos got "Con Artist" for his character? :)

(You know, because he's good at Perplexing us...what did you -think- I was implying?)

is not enough ironic me as Wonder Woman with questions powers??

[Rokk_Krinn]

Not half as ironic as if you get Valkyrie after the comparison you made between her and Catherine the Great. :rolleyes:

when I did that?

[scehaono]

did i squeek into the first 32?

[Scott Neelan]

Well, since I managed to miss EVERYTHING in the last game...not to mention finally coming back only to get killed...if there's still room, I want in on this one.

[Rokk_Krinn]

Scott's back!

Hey, at least you had the decency to wait until I was around this time. Carlos was calling for my head at the same time as I was buried in WinXP, trying to fix modem driver problems.

blame Wonder Woman 33, she "sing" everything to me. :p

[Rokk_Krinn]

Hey, I was Jay Garrick - decency is one of my main attributes.

(Just ignore the other threads where I called for your lynching. :o )

Scott is innocent. I found time particles on Purple Man. :sleep:

[Rokk_Krinn]

Sigh...I didn't want you to find out. I -try- to protect heroes so they can keep the universe in balance by keeping Mordru and I in check. Unfortunately, you blundered into the wrong information...

You're too young to vote :P

[JackAssterson]

Goo.

(translation: This is why people need to use the full names when Alternate Jack and I are still alive! )

[Jackofhearts2005]

You're too young to vote :P
Look who's talking. ;)

[Scott Neelan]

Since everyone else is doing it already, and since he called for my head...

Lynch Vote: Rokk_Krinn

(BTW, I still don't see how that particular Maggia lineup had any chance against the three remaining villains, or even Doc Ock alone. Stupid freakin' ego losing the game for us...*grumble grumble*)

[Jackofhearts2005]

Stupid freakin' ego losing the game for us...*grumble grumble*
At the time, I thought it was going to be the only useful thing I did all game. :nervous:

[Peers]

Added Scott and Scehaono to the list, although I -think- schehaono was asking if he could play, I'm not sure...

anyone else, if you're not on the list, you're not in yet, but have time to get in still.

[Peers]

Did I say Monday?

Meant Wednesday.

Sorry. Busy weekend, busy at work...

[The Vision]

I'll play if there is a spot available.

[Amora's_best_friend]

Probability control could be the funniest role to get.

Or hypersonic speed.

Or mastermind.

Or outwit.

[Peers]

Outwit does seem like the classic roleblocking power, doesn't it...

Sorry for the delay, folks, I had some bad math, so I got rid of two bad roles, realized I needed to put one back in, then had another join up... PMs going out in a bit...
