HCRealms Mafia - 'Arkham Riots' - Game Thread

[sstralkowski]

What makes you think your cell is in Arkham still? :devious:

I'm thinking Bats realized the building was compromised and used JLA transporters to send Inmates into the warm receiving arms of a now angry Wonder Woman and Superman. :surprised

*stops cackling*

[Jackofhearts2005]

Yup. What Rokk said.

* Good-naturedly slaps JoH upside the head from beyond the grave, one last time, for old times' sakes. *

:p
Ouch!

The ghost of Batman thinks I'm a punk.

[Jackofhearts2005]

That was an "ouch I got slapped" not an "ouch I'm offended."
;)

[Magnito]

This is really boring. We've had a majority for 2 days now...

[theanalogkid]

OOC: I hope Jacin's okay.

[sstralkowski]

OOC: I hope Jacin's okay.

Seriously, I'd feel horrible if something bad happened to him and we're all mad about a stupid game. Maybe we should send him a card just in case. :laugh:

[CarlosMucha]

he was online aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllll day yesterday hours afther get all the votes.

I hope he is not in trouble as well.

but I want to know! :cheeky:

what is that signature about JOH?!

don't smile with my beg! I don't want to die! :cry:

:o

[CarlosMucha]

Jacin is online now!!! :grin:

[Magnito]

...yeah but his last activity was over an hour ago.

[Thawmus]

I hope he is not in trouble as well.

but I want to know! :cheeky:

Since everyone else is breaking the rules, I guess I will too.


Carlos, I don't know what statistic you use to determine if someone is online, but it's completely wrong.

He hasn't been on since 10:00 AM yesterday.


And I'm a little irritated that everyone else is just griping about how he hasn't gotten on yet. It took you guys 2 days to finally consider the notion that something might be wrong??? :ermm:

It's a tad rude.

[CarlosMucha]

Harley!

are you ok?

you need something to eat or drink?

are you still hot?

you need company?

[Magnito]

Since everyone else is breaking the rules, I guess I will too.


Carlos, I don't know what statistic you use to determine if someone is online, but it's completely wrong.

What statistic are you using?:

OH. :disappoin

[Rokk_Krinn]

Carlos - we've mentioned this in about a bazillion other game threads but just to try one more time: Just because someone shows as "being online" for the Realms, it doesn't mean they're actually online. :) I actually still frequently show-up as "online" even if my browser is closed if I haven't actually logged out.

Considering Jacin mentioned some computer troubles and a heavy RL schedule, I'm not anywhere near irked that he hasn't been able to get online for a game. It happens. I hope he's alright - that's a far bigger concern - but it's not like he hasn't had extended absences of late.

[Magnito]

Sorry, that should be

Well, that's changed since the last time I looked.

In any case, Carlos is still horribly wrong.

[Magnito]

In any case, Carlos is still horribly wrong.
Something we can all agree on. :)

[CarlosMucha]

sorry. :nervous: :o

[JackAssterson]

Nice avvie, Mags.

[Rokk_Krinn]

In any case, Carlos is still horribly wrong.

Isn't that kind-of like saying, "Perplex can improve a figure"? I mean, we pretty much use "Carlos is still horribly wrong." - on so so many levels - as a default and only comment when the exception is shown. :cheeky:

[theanalogkid]

OOC: Rokk is right. I went to sleep at 11:00 PM EST without turning off my computer and Carlos said in one of the Mafias that I was on but not contributing. I was just expessing hope that he is okay.

[Magnito]

Nice avvie, Mags.
Yeah, I thought you'd appreciate it. I was going to wait for this game to end to change it, but I couldn't wait.

[CarlosMucha]

Yeah, I thought you'd appreciate it. I was going to wait for this game to end to change it, but I couldn't wait.


I also have a new avatar in the works! almost ready but I need to know something first for the new avatar. :p

I will have to wait still...

[JackAssterson]

I also have a new avatar in the works! almost ready but I need to know something first for the new avatar. :p

You found any good pictures of David Cain? I looked, but they're kinda hard to find.

(probably not gonna get rid of Frank, but the thought did cross my mind)

I am awesome, ok now your knowledge is complete. Avatar ready yet?

[CarlosMucha]

your awsome part is already... mmm ready.

waiting for the final info. but I have to see if all the pictures work toguther if not I will go with something more simple.

[Rokk_Krinn]

You know, if it'll get people off Jacin's back I'll just solve the matter:

You guys got Nightwing. Congrats. Now, do you all feel better and complete rather than grumbling about Jacin? :cheeky:

[CarlosMucha]

what I want is all the dead or arrested people to celebrate all toguether this great adventure.

people want to talk in this thread but they respect the rules. we need a end for the party.

[Magnito]

assuming you are telling the truth, well played Rokk.

*applause*

Does anyone know why Freeze didn't show up on my night 2? Who mislead me?

[Rokk_Krinn]

May not want to discuss that yet - you don't know if any of the remaining ones of you are Black Mask gang members.

[Thawmus]

That's precisely why I don't think anybody who is dead or arrested should be posting in this thread, myself included.

We don't know that your death will actually end the game.

screaming Harley is right.

Check the post above the one I'm quoting...or, in other words, agreed. :)

I was just getting tired of people feeling like they were going to go insane if they didn't hear from Jacin - who likely has other concerns - that I was Nightwing and figured that would cut him a bit of much earned slack. :)

We're in an asylum. Thus, we are already insane.

[Jackofhearts2005]

what is that signature about JOH?!

don't smile with my beg! I don't want to die! :cry:

:o
I don't want the mafia to kill me in any of the games.

I figure its a nice "catch all" for people to not arrest Junkyard Dog, Kill Mojo, or kill...that one person from Star Trek that I happen to be.

On Jacin's absence:
There are plenty of logical excuses why he hasn't been on and while I would hate for anything bad to happen to Jacin and while I would like for this game to move on, I am personally neither to the point of worrying or complaining.

On Mags' avatar:
Niiiice. Sound of Violence. Good story arc.

To Rokk:
Well played all around. Even though I had my suspicions of you several times, you definately managed to fool me for the majority of the game while putting suspicion on various inmates. If Iron Ham hadn't gotten himself arrested, he certainly would have gone down before you. Also, thank you for letting us know we got the right guy.

[Magnito]

[JackAssterson]

Whenever the game actually ends, some questions I'll be asking:

1. What was vicious x's big plan he claimed to have to get the Mafia? Did he really know who Catwoman was (unlikely) or was it blind luck?

2. What the heck was Carlos doing with his riddles?

3. WHAT THE HECK was "wait until ten, it's important" about???

4. What was the real story behind Rokk's power?

5. Where the heck did Rez go? Was he playing behind the scenes the whole time?

You forgot one.

6. How many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop?

[JackAssterson]

You forgot one.

6. How many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop?

I already know that. It's around 340.

[JackAssterson]

Or was it 640. I dunno, it was a long time ago when I answered that question.

[vicious x]

Post 412
like I said Rokk is a liar. you are all going to have to lynch him tomorrow if the serial killer can help take out charles x, he knows I'm an inmate and willing to take me out, even though I said that I am willing to help

I would like to know who rokk is saying killed catwoman? bc I mr.Z. killed her :angry:

I too had a question, WHY THE HELL DIDN'T ANYONE LISTEN TO ME? :confused:

I started naming names from post 365
if you all would have let me live Batman would have died and then nightwing. some of you think catwoman was a random kill but it wasn't I just have a way of sniffing out the mafia,...

Rokk you played one hell of a game, in no way was I bitter with you, you did your part. I was mad that no one did anything about your lies :p

sorry for the post but I just wanted to know why no one cared? :( looks at my cat scar and rattler strong braclet :cry:

:laugh:

[fathernson]

But the question to you, ViciousX, is: did you know you were targeting Catwoman, or did you target Batman, and get Catwoman because she was Batman's protector?

[vicious x]

no I went after kontrol, but would have killed charlesx the next night followed by rokk,.... I would have been 3/3 at least to go with my 3/4 on the crisis game not too shabby

[Rokk_Krinn]

no I went after kontrol, but would have killed charlesx the next night followed by rokk,.... I would have been 3/3 at least to go with my 3/4 on the crisis game not too shabby

Shoulda', woulda', coulda'... :cheeky:

Honestly, I think your behaviour as the Rattler and the fact that you kept boasting a high kill ratio worked against you here; even if you had been better believed you were frothing at the mouth a bit and that was making people wary which was kind-of easy to play on a bit (sorry).

However, we should probably table discussion of the game until after it's actually over as I'm still not certain Black Mask's gang is entirely cleared from the board.

[JackAssterson]

You'll have to be more specific than that before anyone believes you.

I agree on both counts.

[CarlosMucha]

I agree on both counts.


I agreed as well. let's wait to the old crazymaster.

[charlesx]

I see the game is still going, so I'll keep this short and sweet.

Thawmus, I played my role all by myself this time around. I was the don, I came up with my own cover story, and spun my own tales. It probably helped that I am an avid Batman fan and knew my characters and their personas better than in the other two Mafias that I have played.

In other words, you were right that I am a n00b, but the n00b is wising up, old chum. And, how sweet is it that the Batman actually took out the Joker during the Arkham riots? :cool:

[JacinB]

Sorry for the lack of a wrap-up, folks (presuming, of course, there was a lynching that took place). I've been out sick the past couple of days, and all of my information on who did what was here at work. I'll post as soon as I get all caught up (... which, you know, only appears to be 40 pages or so :cheeky:).

OMG!

really Jacin. first we was worry for the game but now we was worry for you lol.

happy what you are "Ok".

take your time, man.

[JacinB]

Alright, folks ... finally caught up (I think).

The Winners!
JackAssterson - David Cain
David was one of those roles where, if you went after him to kill him at night, he'd kill you instead. Jack, with all of his previous deaths on the first night, lucked into getting this one. Unfortunately -- or fortunately, I suppose, as he was one of the single most roleblocked players -- he never got to use it as no one ever tried to kill him.

Jackofhearts2005 - Junkyard Dog
He was an inventor. Each night, he'd scour the garbage to find things that he could turn into other more useful things, which he could then either use on himself or give to someone else. The things that had the best chance of protecting him he kept, but he gave the bomb away. :cheeky:

CarlosMucha - The Calendar Man
Carlos was a one-time only, daykill vigilante. His early roleclaim to be Holiday / Two-Face was ... creative, but it seemed to implicate him once Two-Face turned. I was surprised that he lasted after that, honestly, as I thought he wouldn't be able to back-pedal fast enough.

Magnito - The Riddler
Magnito had the power to investigate someone and figure out who had targeted that person throughout the game, much like the current 'legit' Riddler who has turned into a private investigator. However, what he didn't know was that, sometimes, the 'clues' that he would find would lead him to different conclusions than what was actually the case.

Congratulations to all of the winners. You have managed unlock the doors to escape Arkham, and are on your way to be the rulers of the Gotham Underworld with the power vacuum that all of the death and carnage has created.

That is, you know, until you actually got out of the Asylum after more than a week of rioting and were either gunned down or were almost immediately re-arrested by the SWAT teams that were stationed outside. :cheeky:

[Rokk_Krinn]

That is, you know, until you actually got out of the Asylum after more than a week of rioting and were either gunned down or were almost immediately re-arrested by the SWAT teams that were stationed outside. :cheeky:

Told 'em they weren't exactly the power group to escape after being kept here long enough for Gotham PD and about a zillion hero groups to set up camp outside. :laugh:

[Antipathy]

Did somebody roleblock me on the night I died?

The bomb I set was supposed to protect me if somebody targeted me that night.

[JacinB]

The Gotham Knights
charlesx - The Batman
charlesx was your typical Mafia Don, with the ability to order arrests. However, unlike some other games, he retained his immunity to investigation even after his teammates had died.

Rokk_Krinn - Nightwing
Rokk_Krinn was, obviously, the master at this game. All of the riddles and such that he made up for his roleclaim? All him. Every last bit of it. His actual powers as Nightwing were that he could find out who had targeted someone the evening he investigated them. He inherited the ability to order arrests, too, once charlesx was lynched.

fathernson - Robin
fathernson was a roleblocker for the Mafia. Belated congratulations on the baby, by the way. :)

m_a_caque - Batgirl
Batgirl was a budding detective. Each night, she could PM me with someone's name, and I'd give her two bits of information about that character, which could either help the Mafia figure out who they'd need to arrest (if the character proved dangerous), or be entirely useless.

kontrol - Catwoman
Catwoman was a bodyguard for the Batman. Like Thawmus' Harley Quinn, Catwoman would have a 50% chance of taking the bullet for the Batman, but also had a 50% chance that she prevent the kill altogether and find out the name of the attacker (which would, you know, give them someone to target for arrest the next night, or to lynch the next day).

[CarlosMucha]

WEEEEE AREE FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!



:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:


!!!!!!!

[Iron Ham]

WEEEEE AREE FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!



:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:


!!!!!!!

No, you aren't.

[charlesx]

Hey, I think that an honorable mention should be made.

Rokk_Krinn - Nightwing, last member standing of the Gotham Knights. Not only did Rokk convince everyone that he was an inmate with his riddles and misdirections, but he took over as a very capable don after I (Batman) was lynched.

During gameplay, Rokk was the Mafia's MVP. His input resulted in SStralkowski's (The Joker's) arrest. Though I did the actual collar, it was Rokk's suggestion that prompted me to do so. Also, at the very end, when I was being questioned and grilled, I threw out a life line to Rokk. This did not prevent me to from being removed from the game, but it allowed me to recap some of the game's events - which I had lost track of at that time.

Anyhow, giving credit where credit is due, I think that Rokk played a helluva game. Go Nightwing!

[CarlosMucha]

m_a_caque - Batgirl
Batgirl was a budding detective. Each night, she could PM me with someone's name, and I'd give her two bits of information about that character, which could either help the Mafia figure out who they'd need to arrest (if the character proved dangerous), or be entirely useless.



A HA!

FOR THAT m_a_caque knows what I have only 1 kill and afor THAT I say what m_a_caque was Mafia!

[CarlosMucha]

yep was The Man!

rep to him! :p

[Iron Ham]

yep was The Man!

rep to him! :p What about me? If I hadn't targeted someone I was damn sure was Mafia, you guys would have wasted a lynch and possibly lost.

[theanalogkid]

Great game. Kind of boring for me being Kite-Man and all, but at least it helps preserve my line of honesty through out these games.

[Rokk_Krinn]

Hey, we took our leads from the Batman (I'll even allow you to use the Frank Miller Batman that you love so much here, if you want :) ). As you noted - though I wanted to wait until after the game - Thawmus saying you couldn't have done it on your own wasn't quite right; I'm sure if I wasn't on the team you would have rampaged (possibly even better).

Though I would like to note, whenever I die quickly in a Mafia game - look to CharlesX who has threatened me with such. :laugh:

[JacinB]

The 'Other' Mafia
sstralkowski - The Joker
The Joker was set up as a secondary Mafia leader as, frankly, he didn't care who he killed in here as long as he got to kill someone. He would've won when only he and Harley were left.

Thawmus - Harley Quinn
He was just exactly what he told you he was in his roleclaim - the Joker's bodyguard. Like Catwoman, there was a 50% chance he'd take the bullet for the Joker, but there was an even chance that he'd also prevent the kill altogether and find out who'd tried to do it. His allegiances switched once the Joker was put back in his cell and Harley's thoughts cleared up a bit.

The other Other Mafia
biz567 - The Black Mask
The Black Mask is the guy who started all of this: coming in here posing as Commissioner Gordon, killing Dr. Arkham, and setting the Inmates free. His goal? Recruiting for his new mafia.

Anyone he recruited would retain their powers, but their affiliation would change and they would be able to communicate with each other via PM. He would also, then, be able to order hits, using them like any other Mafia Don does.

The drawback was that he would be immediately arrested if he tried to recruit a Gotham Knight and, unfortunately, his first target was Nightwing.

The Serial Killer
St-Dumas - Jane Doe
St-Dumas had the ability to kill one of you every night. Then, he would put on your skin and anyone investigating him would see him as what you used to be. His drawback was that, unfortunately, he had a slight chance of losing himself in your persona and actually taking on those powers and losing his ability to kill.

This was to be revealed, to him by clues, in the write-ups (you know, like when his target didn't necessarily die). But, you guys kept freezing him and he never found out that he had, indeed, become a Doctor rather than the serial killer.

The Independent Vigilante
turdburglar47 - The Red Hood
He was alighed so that, when the Knights regained control, he would win. But, he didn't particularly care whether or not he was following Batman's 'no kill' orders and wanted to put you all in the ground rather than back in your cells. He would've also won when he killed the Joker, though the game would've kept going.

[theanalogkid]

And I am glad to see you are feeling better, Jacin.

[CarlosMucha]

What about me? If I hadn't targeted someone I was damn sure was Mafia, you guys would have wasted a lynch and possibly lost.


of course you too my friend! :p

[Thawmus]

"Thawmus - Harley Quinn
He was just exactly what he told you he was in his roleclaim"

I told the truth this game! :eek:


:laugh:


And Charles, I already repped you, but mad props. Your roleclaim was top-notch. I was this close ---><--- to taking back my vote that day due to it. After that little stunt, I was completely convinced that JoH, JackA, or Rokk was in the mafia, but I couldn't put my finger on whom.

I'm even happier to find out that I had underestimated someone. I needed a good humbling. ;)


But I still avenged Mr. J. :laugh:



I was kinda disappointed that nobody looked at the reasonable cause of my arrest the last night. I know that looking at cause and effect in Mafia is a bad idea, but it's served me well in this game. I knew it was Rokk before the rest of you had figured it out, but the sole reason I knew was because I was arrested. :disappoin


Thanks for setting up a great game, Jacin. Definitely one of the more enjoyable ones I've been in. And considering what a craptastic night power I had, that's saying something. :laugh:

[charlesx]

BTW fellas (and Shel), let's not forget to rep JacinB for running an awesome Mafia game! He heartily deserves a standing ovation for the twists and turns that he threw into the storyline.

JacinB, I hope you had as much fun as we did - and that you feel better, health-wise.

One final word for Shel - you are one of my favorite people but I had to remove you early in the game because you have a sixth sense to pinpoint me as Mafia. I still got lynched, but for once someone else did the accusing!!! :p

[JackAssterson]

Probably the most important thing *I* did was get roleblocked. :p I couldn't do a blasted thing, so every roleblock that went to me was one that wasn't going to an effective teammate.

Good game, Rokk, you had me questioning everything right up until I "targeted" you. :p Real shock to me, that was, seeing as how I was stuck in that cell. :p

And Carlos really was Calendar Man. Ok, fine, nyah.

[theanalogkid]

At least you have a craptasic night power:grin: .

[charlesx]

Though I would like to note, whenever I die quickly in a Mafia game - look to CharlesX who has threatened me with such. :laugh:

Quoted for truth. Rokk is a formidable opponent. I am to Rokk as he is to JackAssterson - and as Shel is to me, apparently!! :laugh: We tend to target each other for removal from the game.

The Gotham Knights had a great team, though. Kontrol, fathernson, and m_a_caque were a force to be reckoned with as well!!

Go Gotham Knights!!

[JackAssterson]

After that little stunt, I was completely convinced that JoH, JackA, or Rokk was in the mafia, but I couldn't put my finger on whom.



Man, I was even cleared by Batfink and people STILL didn't believe me. :p I don't know if this was evil genius on the part of Jacin or sheer luck, but being an "assassin" that never actually KILLS anybody tended to make people awful suspicious.

[CarlosMucha]

BTW fellas (and Shel), let's not forget to rep JacinB for running an awesome Mafia game! He heartily deserves a standing ovation for the twists and turns that he threw into the storyline.

JacinB, I hope you had as much fun as we did - and that you feel better, health-wise.

yea. and you try to take me out as well! :mad:

happy for me DocDoom saveme! :p

[charlesx]

yea. and you try to take me out as well! :mad:

happy for me DocDoom saveme! :p

Yup. Carlos, you played such a good game in the Crisis Mafia that I targeted you for arrest on the first night. If DocDoom187 hadn't gotten you out of it, I'd have locked you up myself. And just look - you won this game as well, even though I was certain that you'd get killed for the "10pm" stunt that you pulled as Calendar Man.

The moral of that story is: "Don't underestimate the foreign guy who can't write in English as well as everyone else." :)

[CarlosMucha]

His drawback was that, unfortunately, he had a slight chance of losing himself in your persona and actually taking on those powers and losing his ability to kill.




wow. excelent. somebody have this idea in some point but is a awesome idea Jacin!

[Thawmus]

Man, I was even cleared by Batfink and people STILL didn't believe me. :p I don't know if this was evil genius on the part of Jacin or sheer luck, but being an "assassin" that never actually KILLS anybody tended to make people awful suspicious.

Well, I think this was before Batfink had cleared your name.

[CarlosMucha]

Well, I think this was before Batfink had cleared your name.


speak for yourself. I never trust him! :p

[JacinB]

And, finally, the Inmates who didn't make it out ...
ReZourceman - Two-Face
It was hard to tell if he was actually playing or not, which was kind of sad since he had such a potentially important role. He was the ultimate 50% guy, everything came down to a flip of his coin. If he was targeted by a Knight, there was a 50% chance he would join them. If he was targeted for a Night Kill, there was a 50% chance the person targeting him would die instead. If he was lynched, there was a 50% chance he'd kill the first person who'd voted for him, too. If he was investigated, there was a 50% chance he show up as 'Inmate' and a 50% chance he'd show up as 'Knight'.

scehaono - Mr. Freeze
He was the Inmates' roleblocker, and he did a good job of it by preventing Jane Doe from killing more of you.

lensnart - Clayface
lensnart was a Master Impersonator. Each night, he could assume someone else's identity, giving anyone who targeted him a 75% chance of hitting the other person instead. His drawback (which wasn't shared with him), however, was that there was also a 25% chance that anyone targeting the person he was impersonating would get him instead.

Melkhor - Ventriloquist and Scarface
Melkhor, for the second time, got a power where his vote would count twice. Unfortunately, he never got the opportunity to use it.

Iron Ham - Cluemaster
Cluemaster's ability allowed him to hide in someone else's room each night, which would either protect him from all attempts to arrest or kill him if he successfully targeted another Inmate, or in his immediate arrest if he targeted a Knight. His continued survival, obviously, allowed him the ability to compile a list of trustworthy associates.

DocDoom187 - The Spook
The Spook was a master escape artist and had decided to use his abilities to help the rest of you escape from other attempts to target them. He was, in essence, your doctor. And, Jane Doe killed him and stole his identity.

Antipathy - Firebug
Firebug's power, as an explosives expert, allowed him to build bombs that would kill anyone and everyone targetting him. In Mafia game terms, he was a Bomb. However, the drawback he wasn't aware of was that not all of his bombs would work all of the time. And on the night he was targeted by the Red Hood, he got the low roll on his 10% chance of failure.

vicious x - Mr. Zsasz
Mr. Zsasz was your vigilante. He could kill someone, once per night, but the mark he'd carve in his skin the next morning would give him away as a killer, possibly making him appear to be the serial killer.

theanalogkid - Kite-Man
Kite-Man had absolutely no powers. He was a mort who had to survive on his ability to convince everyone else that he was a mort.

Amora's_best_friend - The Mime
Each night, ABF's power allowed him to investigate one player. He would find out everything there was to know about that player: character, powers, who they'd targeted, who targeted them. However, since he was a mime, the only thing he was allowed to post in the thread were his votes (ie: pointing a finger at someone). He got creative by using names of people who weren't in the game to give clues as to what he was doing, which I allowed as, really, it was no different than a mime acting out a scene for you all which was still in character. When he started making stuff up and using fake usernames in his clues, I had to draw the line and remove him.

[CarlosMucha]

I STILL think you're Holiday, wiseguy.

:mad:

;)

:p


NO! I'm Two Face! :mad: look all the clues! I'm the GoDamit Two Face! :mad: :)

:p

[Rokk_Krinn]

I know this is ego-tastic of me but these were said the day I was truthfully roleclaiming being Nightwing, and so I can't resist. :)


If Rokk really is Nightwing (and I don't think he is) it will piss me off.



Agreed.

If it's a ruse, then I will humbly submit to him at the end of the game for so completely and utterly pwning me.

Thanks to m_a_caque for saving and PM'ing these to me. :)

[Magnito]

Yay! My first mafia game ever, and I won :)

[JackAssterson]

Ok, so Gotham is now ruled by Calendar Man, Riddler, Junkyard Dog and David Cain.

Um, you guys go fight the cops and I'll guard the back door.

[Doombot 3.1]

The Crime Doctor seems to have been left off the list of dead/arrested inmates. I guess he really is an obscure character. Probably not much left of him, any way, after the bomb exploded. ;)

Anyways, Jacin, your pm said that one of my powers was that I could "Protect one target for the night." Was that effective against only kills or kills and arrests? (It did not occur to me until after I was blown up that there might be a distinction.)

[kontrol]

Told 'em they weren't exactly the power group to escape after being kept here long enough for Gotham PD and about a zillion hero groups to set up camp outside. :laugh:
I got to rep you for your stellar play in this game. I knew you were GK, but there were times where I thought you could've switched sides somehow.

[Melkhor]

Alright, glad to see you guys managed to pull home a win for the Inmates without me. Great game guys! :)

And now, with this game officially over, the scene is set for the Mutant Massacre to begin shortly.

[CarlosMucha]

Ok, so Gotham is now ruled by Calendar Man, Riddler, Junkyard Dog and David Cain.

you can call us "The Perplexing 4!"

[JacinB]

The Inmates who didn't make it out, part two ...
Doombot 3.1 - Crime Doctor
Not your typical doctor, Doombot 3.1 had the ability to torture someone to get information out of them (of my choosing, like Batgirl's power) or to protect them from a night kill. However, unknown to him, as torture isn't necessarily the best method for extracting information and the Knights had trained for it, there was only a 25% chance of accuracy when he used the power on a Knight, and only a 75% chance of accuracy when used on an Inmate.

KitsuShel - Lock-Up
Lock-Up was a traitor. He wanted the Knights to win because, in his mind, he didn't deserve to be here and all of you loons needed to be back behind bars. He had the ability to prevent one target from doing anything -- including using any powers they had and voting in the next day's lynch -- until the next nightfall by locking them away. Unfortunately, Shel would've had to have been 'out of the game' during that, too, as she'd've had to make sure the person stayed locked away. The night she got arrested, ironically, she'd intended to use her power on the person arresting her but just forgot to send the PM.

TMNT99 - The Ratcatcher
He was your tracker. He could send his rats out each night to find out what one person had done that night. He was, as he correctly deduced, also protected from things like bomb blasts because, well, he wasn't actually there.

batfink - Prometheus
Batfink was your cop, able to investigate a player and determine their affiliation. But, as is the case in these games, even when he cleared someone, you guys didn't always believe him.

Peers - Poison Ivy
Poison Ivy was a paranoid refugee. She didn't want to go back to her cell, but she didn't want to take part in the riots either. Each night, she had the ability to either track someone (somewhat like Ratcatcher, except her plants would report back to her) or use her plants to defend her from the first person targeting her during a night phase. Unfortunately, on the night that she was killed by the Joker, she had about a half-dozen people targeting her.

[sstralkowski]

I want to know why I was targetted by the mafia. I know I shined the spotlight on Rokk more than he likes, but was that the only reason?

[CarlosMucha]

oh and for the people asking what was that about my "wait until 10, is important!"

well. I was working in hide who I'm as Two Face.

for that my plan was kill in a Holiday (like Holiday AND Calendar Man do, is too temted don't play in character :p ) BUT my plan was to do that in the day phase 2. with 2 22 pistols (weapon use by Twho Face and Holiday and Calendar Man).

why afther 10 PM? well, I want to be exactly at 10.22 PM: what is 22.22. you catch the idea.

when Two Face was out as a knight I knew what somebody will catch that, soo faster as I could I incriminate myself as Two Face (before other can do it).

oh, and I was wrong about Iron Ham. sorry my friend, :cross-eye

oh and Mr Freeze do a excelent job by the way!.

[fathernson]

Thanks to JacinB for running this great game, and to everyone else that played. I had a great time.

Maybe now I can get back to work and stop reading this thread :)

You say this, but you and I both know it won't happen

[charlesx]

I'll let Rokk answer this question.

Me, I thought you were too twitchy and shifty-eyed! (j/K) :p

[vicious x]

glad you are better,... thanks for the great game!!! well its good to know that the inmates used the knives that I sent them to carve up night wing :p

[sstralkowski]

I'll let Rokk answer this question.

Me, I thought you were too twitchy and shifty-eyed! (j/K) :p

Can't you jsut summarize? Rokk's busy elsewhere.

[Rokk_Krinn]

Can't you jsut summarize? Rokk's busy elsewhere.

You just cast suspicion on yourself and I reasoned you were a threat that needed to be removed ASAP (especially since you seemed to be in league with Thawmus whom I knew from early in the game was Harley).

Speaking of Thawmus, I'm still waiting for him to go along with the quote m_a sent me so I could post here. :cheeky: *jk*

[charlesx]

You just cast suspicion on yourself and I reasoned you were a threat that needed to be removed ASAP (especially since you seemed to be in league with Thawmus whom I knew from early in the game was Harley).

Plus, SS, you smelled of fish and elderberries. :p

You just had to go. Lucky for us, because you were on your merry way to kill Nightwing when you got nabbed.

[Jackofhearts2005]

The 'Other' Mafia
The Serial Killer
St-Dumas - Jane Doe
St-Dumas had the ability to kill one of you every night. Then, he would put on your skin and anyone investigating him would see him as what you used to be. His drawback was that, unfortunately, he had a slight chance of losing himself in your persona and actually taking on those powers and losing his ability to kill.

This was to be revealed, to him by clues, in the write-ups (you know, like when his target didn't necessarily die). But, you guys kept freezing him and he never found out that he had, indeed, become a Doctor rather than the serial killer.

I kindof suspected that Jane would have actually taken on the powers and win condition of Spook, but only after we had lynched her, and only because of the writeup of her death.

Great game, Jacin. Fun roles abound.
Great game, Rokk. You're a dangerous person to play against.
Great game, to the rest of my teammates. We won!

Oh, and about me using my protective items on myself, I didn't realize that the person I gave them to could immediately use them until I got the bomb.

Otherwise, I would have given Batfink my all useful string with a can tied to it to put across his door. :cheeky:

[Thawmus]

Plus, SS, you smelled of fish and elderberries. :p

You just had to go. Lucky for us, because you were on your merry way to kill Nightwing when you got nabbed.

Actually, he was on his merry way to kill YOU.

That's how I got you lynched, remember?? :laugh:

[sstralkowski]

Still have no clue what made me look so dangerous or like I was in cahoots with Thawmus.

[charlesx]

Actually, he was on his merry way to kill YOU.

That's how I got you lynched, remember?? :laugh:

That's news to me. According to JacinB's PM, I had just saved Nightwing's life b/c The Joker was on his way to kill him. Sounds like some wires got crossed, but this does not have any major impact on the outcome of events. I'd rather that SS's arrest uncovered me and left Rokk as the new don - especially given how he played the inmates like they were rusty fiddles. :laugh:

And yeah, thawmus, you got me lynched but Rokk got you arrested so it's all good. (As always, you too played a helluva game as well, Dr. Quinnzel.)

[Thawmus]

Still have no clue what made me look so dangerous or like I was in cahoots with Thawmus.

Before your arrest, we clashed publicly for show a bit, but then we backed off kinda awkwardly. I think Rokk picked up on that.

[Thawmus]

Technically - unless you count being turned into a zombie - same here. I can gum up works and make things easier on folks but don't actually "win" anything myself. :ermm:

Rokk, thawmus - for me the enjoyment is in how well the game is played. The ones who win may get there as a result of sheer luck. It takes a whole lot more to go down fighting.

In other words, we should award Fellowship as well as first place when it comes to these mafia game thangs.

[JackAssterson]

Edit: I DID think my role was tres awesome.

I role-blocked you on Night 1, and we learned from the write-up that you were a "great assassin". From that point on I figured that you were another killer. The idea that you would kill whomever came to arrest you, instead, was really clever.

I was wondering what the heck you were up to, especially after I was removed and no one else died.

[sstralkowski]

Before your arrest, we clashed publicly for show a bit, but then we backed off kinda awkwardly. I think Rokk picked up on that.

I didn't realize I was that transparent. My bad.

For the most part, that's true for me.

For example, the success I had in the Harry Potter mafia game was...well...ridiculous.

This is pretty much what I thought happened...the entire game I was walking a thin line between people thinking I was too dangerous to keep alive and you guys finding out I couldn't do anything and thus wasn't worth the roleblock.

[Rokk_Krinn]

This is pretty much what I thought happened...the entire game I was walking a thin line between people thinking I was too dangerous to keep alive and you guys finding out I couldn't do anything and thus wasn't worth the roleblock.

We actually figured it moderately soon but by that point there wasn't much we could do as we had other arrest targets (as we would have had to target the roleblock and the arrest the same night); in retrospect we maybe should have done that the first night - my fault we didn't though as I thought "splitting the forces" would reveal us some more information in the write-ups (which, admittedly, it did) and the others, sadly, took the gamble with me.

Ah well, at least I got Thawmus to say he humbly submits to me. :cheeky:

I would have thought once you realized my power I'd be a gimme to make it to the end -- I was no threat to the Mafia as long as they didn't try to kill me.

Edit: oh, and how hard were you guys laughing during that "OMG LEAGUE OF ASSASSINS" phase? Yeesh.

Good game all! I had fun reading at least. :cheeky:

[DocDoom187]

One time I play a good game

A)I get tricked by Rokk

B)I get killed early on:(

[Jackofhearts2005]

Sidenote: Though Rokk played a great game, I think he can no longer be called Giant the Jack killer.

The Jacks killed him. :p

[CarlosMucha]

I wonder if Carlos will come up with an Arkham Victory avatar.

:classic:


he he he. I don't deserve it. Rokk was the "winner" really. :p even if he die in the end.

also right now. I'm LIVING the JLA game post by post. the JLA game is the first game what i read post by post even if i die. soo I honored that game with my current avatar. :)

[CarlosMucha]

One time I play a good game

A)I get tricked by Rokk

B)I get killed early on:(


But you SAVE ME!

thanks again my friend.

oh. and I have a question for Iron ham: Don't lie!:

why did you chose stay with Rokk? you chose him because you thouth what he was the safer inmate of all??

[Rokk_Krinn]

he he he. I don't deserve it. Rokk was the "winner" really. :p even if he die in the end.


No, I lost (though I definitely had fun getting there - most enjoyable game yet, I feel, as the amount of energy in the thread was awesome)...though, thank you. :)

Still, serious kudos have to go to those that actually made it to the final end and won it. Great job guys!

[Iron Ham]

But you SAVE ME!

thanks again my friend.

oh. and I have a question for Iron ham: Don't lie!:

why did you chose stay with Rokk? you chose him because you thouth what he was the safer inmate of all??\
No. I knew you all thought I was Nightwing, and that I had never targeted Rokk successfully.

I had, however, targeted you and Magnito, and everyone pretty much KNEW the Jacks were legit... (with some doubts about JackA)

[CarlosMucha]

wow! thanks. You probabilly save the team!

also lucky me Two Face fall the night before.

if Nightwing whould die before the psicosis paranoia will made our head explote! :p

But you SAVE ME!

thanks again my friend.

oh. and I have a question for Iron ham: Don't lie!:

Yup Carlos buddy;)

I KNEW for a fact you would be a target the first night, or you were mafia. So I protected you and saw in the write up someone got the hookie beaten out o him, but was saved. So I knew you were good.


With the doctor power, until someone role claims, I use it as a kind of Cop power, if you get what I mean.

[CarlosMucha]

I wonder if Carlos will come up with an Arkham Victory avatar.

Everyone was so certain that something bad was going to happen at some point and that there was a League of Assassins running around that I almost felt compelled to try to make it happen just so everyone wouldn't be disappointed.

I was glad to play the LoA card, just to maintain the level of paranoia amongst the townies. The Gotham Knights made it too easy when we took out the "other" Mafias - Joker and Black Mask.

(BTW, ironic that Shel was on her way to lock me up when she was arrested by the Knights!) :cool:

Really amazing game.
