Crusader not Bad! Bald man wrong!
Wait, how'd you know I was bald IRL?!? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
And with that, I'm out for the night.
Crusader not Bad! Bald man wrong!
yeah, right. Dr. Teeth could have backed you up, but hes conviently dead.
You were in the band until recruited by Crusader, oops I mean GP.
I am most certainly NOT a member of the Labyrinth! My loyalty lies where it has always been this entire game.
That aside, if you really want to waste a vote then lynch me today, it wouldn't do you any good.
I'm not refusing to believe that Crusader could be who we're looking for, I'm just saying I'm not convinced that he is. I am, however, convinced that Animal is still a part of the Labyrinth, and since the Goblin Prince didn't recruit anyone last night, why not use this chance to cut down his numbers a bit more?
My vote: Lynch TAK

What are you smoking. You've gotta take out the source of the recruitment or it'll continue. Crusader has been given multiple chances to contribute something useful to help us find the "real Goblin King" and yet he's given us nothing. It's so obvious. Why is batfink the only other one who gets it?
sstralkowski
09/27/2007, 06:48
And JackA, can you vote? Maybe phrase it in a riddle.
"I've gone from Chef to Waitor,
TO serve the people by voting Crusader"
Something like that with a little sprinkle of bold?

No-one seems to have been recruited last night, or the night before, or didn't anoyone else noticed that?
Isn't it possible that the Goblin King only had a limited amount of recruitments at his disposal?
Is antipathy, Jack, Crusader, Batfink, you and I the only ones remaining now?
Remember how everyone was sooo sure Antipathy had to be the Goblin Prince, how well did that one turn out?
But alright then, let's try it your way. If for no other reason then to stop making you throw any more pointless accusations my way.

Maybe I'm remembering it wrong, but Antipathy's death was less than convincing. He didn't show up as definitively good. And now he's back? Yep, seems perfectly straight forward to me.

And still, your argument to save yourself has no information in it that would help us. Also odd that your only supporter is a recruited Animal. And even more interesting is that Anti hasn't stepped up and voted for you to take any of the spotlight off himself pointing to you being the boss. All paths lead to you being guilty and you're doing a pretty poor job of defending yourself.

I doubt he's GK right now. Until I see what Crusader's autopsy shows, I'm leaving my vote where it is. Still, Anti is hardly off the hook. If someone had the power of resurrection, they certainly could have brought back someone better.

Why? Because I won't flat out roleclaim? Have I not voted with you every time (minus the last 2 since you became a tyrannical froggy) since the beginning? I haven't bandwagon voted, I was up in the front with you. Look it up. My votes have been with you until basically the dream sequence.

You were one of the last to vote for Antipathy, who's less than trustworthy. And by your own admission, you've been pretty much voting with us up until the real mafia was collapsed. I'd wager that your vote was at the end of the list every time a Labyrinth character was on the chopping block. Except maybe Squeak who could have been completely expendable. Voting habits CAN be deceiving sicne you can fudge them to make you look innocent. Information is key and you offer none. You still haven't answered who you think the Goblin King is, Mr. Pro-townie.

Because I don't have anything to offer. I don't have the ability to track or sense alignments. Where does that leave me? I'm not going to blindly point fingers with no valid information. Basically I'm stuck. We know there's a converted animal. Why couldn't HE be the GP? What about Jack? His swedish chef's never been confirmed. At least I've been confirmed as neutral and good aligned. What info do you have on the 2 of them? Why do they get free passes?

Being an information gatherer is not limited to just night powers. The write-ups are very telling and Rokk's style of night response will give you tons of info. I think that's a cop out.
Animal can't be GK, he's Animal. He got recruited by GK. He can't recruit himself.
Jack could be faking, however, he's at least claimed a role, and early on at that. Then no one said, "He can't be Chef. I'm chef." Given that role claiming early on as a lie can backfire so many different ways, I doubt Jack is lying so he gets more leeway than you do.
Any more ideas on how to get yourself out of this?

There's still enough mystery to keep people guessing though, isn't there? If there wasn't this game would've been over long ago.

Yeah, that is true, but no one's confirmed this. Just speculation since he talks funny (I still laugh)

Enough mystery that you're not helping clear up.
You stated that Animal was the Goblin King/Prince (GK/P). THat's just dumb. No way it's possible. So now that I pointed that out, you're saying he's not GK and that Jack IS GK and recruited him.
Jack has given us a name to put with his face. Whether it's fake or not, he at least offered info to help. I explained why he gains credibility the longer he lives. You've done nothing that worked to our advantage info-wise.
I would have you introduce something useful. If you have no real desire to clear your name, then so be it, but don't pretend we are trying to squeeze info out of you when you have none. You're just choosing not to help/share.

Sorry; been away for a funeral and work-matters most of the day other than a quick pop-on here and there.
I suspect tomorrow's Day Phase will go much better but, yeah, I'm afraid the Day Phase - which I gave a tad more time to here due to my absence and the deal with JackA and Antipaty's return - has come to an end with no lynch.
Night Phase has now begun; hopefully for the Muppets, information will go smoother this time.

Due to some people's confusion - and my not specifying in the above post when Night Phase would end - I allowed it to stay open through the weekend so people would have a chance to get in their PM's.
Night Ten
It is again a fairly quiet night at the theater. The few Muppets that are left are uncertain of whom to trust or how to coordinate, apparently, but they're giving it their best shot.
Speaking of shots, Piggy again gives out a few. An arguement erupts between two of the Muppets and wishing for some peace and quiet, Piggy walks over and proceeds to judo them both into silence.
The rest of the Night passed uneventfully with no lynches.
Day Phase has now begun and will last until majourity or 24 hours.

I never found out what the Curse of Destruction did.
The Curse of (gulp) Death simply meant I couldn't use my night power that phase. (no big loss)
The Curse of Cheap Prob Control...er, Destiny, meant I had to vote for a random player. Batfink got selected, but fortunately folks realized it was the curse talking.
The Curse of Desire dictated that I grant one wish made by another player. The wish turned out to be defending Crusader from a lynch vote, which I did to the best of my limited communicative abilities.
The Curse of Despair meant I needed fewer lynch votes against myself to go bye-bye.
Finally, the Curse of Delerium stated that all my posts needed to be wonkified -- thankfully I was given the choice of just going with rhymes instead of all riddles.

Things seemed to be getting back to normal again and that feeling was raised when the "silence for too long"-voice of the Muppet Theater announced, "Ladies and Gentlemen, tonight's special guests...the Winchester Brothers!"
Kermit was confused as he wasn't certain about whom the Winchester Brothers were but as he opened the door he recognized them - characters from the television show, "Supernatural" (season premiere - Thursday, October 4th!). This was mildly unusual as traditionally guests were actors and actresses but this time the actors seemed to be "stuck" in their role of the characters. Nonetheless, Kermit ushered them into the building.
Dean got right down to business - even if they had to leave all the weapons at the door (Jim's Rules still held here!) - and attempted to introduce themselves, "I'm John McCartney and this is my assistant, Ringo Harrison...we're...uhm...with the Department of Extra-Muppital Affairs." When Kermit pointed out that the theater had already announced who they really were, Sam stepped in attempting to apologize but was interrupted by Dean pointing out, "You'll have to excuse Sammy. He's a bit gushy at being here. Used to sleeping with you folks - in an entirely platonic way, you know as safety blankets and all that - rather than talking with you. Anyway, we're here about a goblin?"
A sharp cry arose from the gathered Muppets and one of them tried to make a dash for the door. Being all of two-feet-tall, it didn't take much for him to be lifted off the ground by Sammy. "Wow. Easier than I expected. Uhm...don't suppose you guys have time for us to stick around do you?"
CrusaderC - A Muppet in Prince's Clothing (Evil: Labyrinth) - has been "lynched" by majourity.
Night Phase will begin in about fifteen minutes and run for 24 hours or until all PM's are received.
Remember: October 4th! ;)
A majourity has been reached...a write-up is coming up in a minute (I'll just edit this post...and then maybe mod-kill myself. :) )
As long as you didn't directly quote yourself.

Muppet Night Absurd Number ;)
The last few evenings had been quiet but tonight things were back to feeling like the Muppet Theater...much to the chagrin of more than a few people.
**************************************************
The first to feel the sting of sudden activity was the hapless crazy off-and-on Muppet Show member. He just wanted to mind his own business - odd for him, truth be told - but those darn whirling lights attracted him over to the Main Theater and he wanted so much to try juggling them just like he was seeing done. Unfortunately when he went to go grab for them, a certain pig happened in and saw him with the globes. Even an even-tempered individual would be cautious but someone like Piggy? There was no mercy for the would-be juggler as she immediately "HYAH!"'ed him into a sorry state. Kermit caught up a second later and upon seeing who it was, he tried to apologize but, well, Piggy isn't the only Muppet with a bit of a sore temper. It was only partway through their conversation - if you could call it that - that the two realized Piggy and the glowing lights were both gone.
****************************************************
batfink - Miss Piggy (Good: Muppet Show) - has been pigglet-napped.
The Day Phase begins now and will last no longer than 24 hours or until a majourity is reached (with 5 players remaining, lynch vote is 3).

Guess whoever she decided to karate-chop wasn't the right one. The Goblin Prince is still out there laughing at us, and we've got to do something about it.
Notice how we got a kidnapping, NOT a recruitment this night? That tells me that the Goblin Prince is done subverting people and is just trying to get rid of us now, so it's time to fight back!

The Muppet Theater begins to glow with unearthly lights, seemingly from above which is rather strange considering there's a celing on the place (though Scooter hasn't been around to maintain of late). A saucer comes down - again, no clue how it got here - and the Muppet Theater voice booms, "Ladies and Gentlemen, Tonight's Special Guest... Mr. Tom Cruise!"
The saucer opens but, rather than Tom Cruise out spill a bunch of aliens that look suspiciously like Gonzo. "We are the soldiers of Tom Cruise. Many zoltans ago he sent us here to look for the coming of one who could make us laugh and thus expel our gases and release us to a higher being." No one has a clue what they're talking about but that doesn't stop them from grabbing the juggler - the poor guy just wanted to look at the pretty light globes! - and carting him back into the spaceship.
theanalogkid - Lewt Zealand (Neutral: The Muppet Show) - has been removed by majourity.
Night Phase begins now though the thread will remain open a bit longer for discussion.

I think so. I personally thought he had switched into the GK, and was still playing the Animal role just to seem less suspicious.

The Final Night?
It's a desperate bid for the Muppets as they realize they're down to a minimal number. The Goblin Prince and his cronie, Hoggle, are preparing their plans while elsewhere in the theater, Gonzo decides it's "all or nothing" time and begins to load himself into a large cannon as the "Weirdo Cannonball".
A short time later, as Kermit goes to have one last try at convincing Hoggle that it would be funner for him to join the Muppet Show gang, things are interrupted. Gonzo fires himself out of the cannon screaming, "Take that Goblin Prince!"...and proceeds to crash into Hoggle, stunning the two of them as they crash outside of the Muppet Theater.
Melkhor - Gonzo the Great (Good: Muppet Show) - has removed himself from the Muppet Theater.
JackAssterson - Hoggle (Good/Neutral/Evil: Labyrinth) - has been removed from the Muppet Theater by the Master of Weirdness.
It's down to just the Frog and the Prince and no kiss from "fair" Piggy is going to save things here, Kermit realizes as the Prince starts to open a gateway to the Labyrinth.
At that moment that familiar voice booms through the Muppet Theater, "Ladies and gentlemen, tonight's special guest - Mr. David Bowie!". The Goblin Prince - realizing he's won - walks over to the edge of the stage and begins to take his bows. Up in the Balcony, Waldorf and Statler debate if it's a man or a woman but no one cares as Kermit continues the credits...
"Wow. Was that a crazy show or what? We'd like to thank our special guests - obviously Mr. Bowie (would you please stop feeling up my legs?) - for coming here as the Goblin Prince, Dateline NBC, Larry King, Jackie Chan and his niece Jade, the Books of Magic, Paula Dean, Tom Cruise or, er, I guess Tom Cruise's soldiers, Mr. Sean Connery (stop shouting for Trebek, he's not here!), and Dean and Sam Winchester of "Supernatural" (season premiere, tomorrow, October 4th - sheesh, you guys happy now?).
Most especially thanks to all of you and the cast of the Muppets for joining us in tonight's special presentation. Yaaaaay!"
It's time to play the music
It's time to light the lights
It's time to meet the Muppets on the Muppet Show tonight.
It's time to put on makeup
It's time to dress up right
It's time to raise the curtain on the Muppet Show tonight.
Why do we always come here
I guess we'll never know
It's like a kind of torture
To have to watch the show
And now let's get things started
Why don't you get things started
It's time to get things started
On the most sensational inspirational celebrational Muppetational
This is what we call the Muppet Show
***********************************************
Congrats to Antipaty (Jareth - the Goblin Prince) for winning a game that got way too strange at times (seriously, you have no idea how many times Bunsen/Beaker's science went awry because either Jareth directly targeted them or was misdirected to them, including the infamous Spin-the-Bottle night that switched multiple roles to new ones.)
Ok, so the roles were switching? Cause I thought Crusader was Goblin Prince. He was the one that appeared to recruit me. After Vision did.

Ok, so the roles were switching? Cause I thought Crusader was Goblin Prince. He was the one that appeared to recruit me. After Vision did.
Crusader had originally been Floyd Pepper - the Goblin Prince was able to use the events of "Spin the Bottle" to switch the two as a decoy (so that Crusader believed he was the Prince and went around as a Don but he had none of the Prince's normal abilities; the Prince had started as Neutral by the way).
That reminds me - I'm nowhere near the computer that has the original character write-ups so if folks want to post their own roles, I won't fuss as it may be a day or so before I can do it. :)
Really, it all came down to one decision by Melkhor as to who was going to win the game: The Frog or the Prince.

Okey dokey.
I was the Swedish Chef. I misdirected anyone who targeted me, which caused some chaos at the beginning, I think.
Later I got turned into Hoggle, who had a kind of variable alignment. I still was hoping for a Townie victory so I'd get the Chef back, though. Bork.
I was Rose for a phase, and got to investigate somebody.
I got cursed (but you all knew that)
Finally Jareth recruited me VERY recently. I was hoping we'd both win but that darn Gonzo took me out. ;p
Long story short: I REALLY WAS the Chef. I had to talk like that as long as I was him.

Kermit the Frog – Alignment: Good (Muppet Show); It’s not easy being green, nor is it easy keeping the show going, especially with a crazed fast-food mogul kidnapping your best friend and eyeing your legs. Fortunately, if you’ve learned one thing over the years it’s how to keep a steady head – using two hands on either side does help – and how to get everyone to work in coordination. Each Night Phase you may PM me the name of a player that you wish to talent scout (and learn their alignment). Based upon what you learn, you may be given further options. The more of your group you gather back together, the better the show you may put together. Goals: Rescue Fozzie, keep your legs and have the show ready on time (or in other words – as if enough haven’t been used already – get the cast back together and remove the threats to the Muppet Show.)
Miss Piggy – Alignment: Good (Muppet Show); Ah, Kermie – if only he realized how much you love him. Sure, you’re the Grade-A (you have a tattoo from the FDA that proves it!) starlet of the show, but you realize it helps having one to be in and Kermit makes that all possible. Unfortunately, you’ve lost track of each other in all that commotion (he’s so hung up on his legs when he should be looking at your’s but what are you going to do?). That doesn’t mean you won’t try to help him though and what better way to do that than your famous Crouching Hog, Hidden Swine kung-fu methods? You have an option to use your power during the Day Phase or the Night Phase (if you used your power during the Day Phase, you may not use it at night and vice-versa; after all, a beauty needs her sleep). If you choose to use it during the Night Phase, you can PM me the name of one player; that player will be on the receiving end of a pork-chop and be stunned (blocked) for the night. If you use it during the Day Phase, you can stop one person from voting (and erase their vote if it’s already been made) as well as silence them for the rest of the Day Phase…but be warned, it’s pretty public when you slam someone and the presence of Miss Piggy will be revealed. Goal: Find Kermie somehow - maybe he'll come to you? - and help him accomplish his goals. Surely you want to protect him at all costs.
Gonzo the Great – Alignment: Good (Muppet Show); Okay, the Muppets are scattered, the show needs to be put together and a pig is waiting for you to sweep her off her hooves. Oh, and yeah, you should probably help rescue Fozzie and save Kermit. What’s a…well…whatever-you-are to do in this situation? Whatever you do best…which can change from night to night (or even day to day). You’re known to play a multitude of roles – hey, versatility is your middle name (you think…you haven’t found your birth certificate) – and each Night Phase you’ll receive a PM from me as to the one you’ll be portraying. Goal: Survive until you’re all reunited and eliminate the threats to the Muppet Show.
Rowlf the Dog – Alignment: Good (Muppet Show); Sigh, it’s a dog’s life…everytime you feel life’s thrown you a bone, it turns out to have already been pre-chewed. This time though you’re not really the one in the dog house and it’s your friends that need your help. A good thing you can teach an old dog new tricks after all because one thing you learned from your time on the Muppet Show is how to keep people from rolling over and playing dead (thank you Veterinarian’s Hospital!). Each Night Phase you can PM me the name of one player whom you wish to Protect for the Night. Goal: Survive until the cast is reunited and eliminate all the threats to the Muppet Show.
Scooter – Alignment: Good (Muppet Show); Oh, sure, everyone depends on you to gofer this and gofer that, but now you have to gofind (is that a word?) the rest of the band…or, on second thought, being you’re not the best at that, wait for them to find you. Fortunately, being it’s your uncle’s theater you know the place better than anyone…well, except your uncle…and the janitor…and that big dog you own…and probably Kermit..and, well, okay, you may not know it the best but you know it well enough. Each Night Phase you PM me one of two choices: Target a player to trip them up, lock them in their room or send them off to the wrong section (i.e. – Roleblock for the Night), or you can decide to go hide somewhere, protecting yourself from at least one targeting of you for that Night. Goal: Survive until the cast is reunited – they need to get back and pay their rent! – and eliminate all threats to your theater, er, your uncle’s theater, er, the Muppet Show.
Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker – Alignment: Good (Muppet Show); “Distinguished ladies and gentlemen of the game, I will now attempt to…” “Meep Meep!” “What’s that? The show’s off the air and our funding is cut?” “Meep-mee-Meep?” “Yes, I know it sometimes takes a bit longer to understand you but when the money of science is at stake, it’s much easier.” “Meep-meep-meee. Meep!” “Very well then, we had best put our scientific expertese to use to regain our funding, er, I mean help our friends for science is altruistic!”. The cutting edge of science – hopefully one that doesn’t cut Beaker this time – is at your command, but funding is a tad limited at the moment. Each Night Phase you will be PM’d a power; as you reunite with more Muppets, more science options will become available to you. Unfortunately, your science can be a bit wacky and there may be…drawbacks…along the way. Goal: Survive until your funding is re-established…uhm, maybe we should say until the cast is reunited and the threats to the Muppet Show are eliminated. Hmm…what about using the E-lamb-a-nator 2000? Why’s Beaker running in the other direction?

Damn, should have gone for Antipathy then! One question I must know the answer to, however, how on Earth did Antipathy survive being lynched by us?
He had been targeted by the Phantom event early in the game (and had the "Goblin Prince bonus"...which is why there were so many question marks as to what happened to him on the day of the lynch posting). It had severe restrictions but in Antipathy's case worked out kind-of handily.

Dr. Teeth – Alignment: Good (Electric Mayhem); You still have the golden teeth, but the golden tones are missing. While some of your band is behind you, there are a few more…independent thinkers (musicians are so artistically minded)…whom you need to find. You wouldn’t mind getting back together with that talking frog with the banjo either; not only does he pluck a good tune but a steady gig ain’t half bad (though in the case of the Muppet Theater it’s not always half good either). You have two options currently available to you: Each night you may PM me the name of one person whom you wish to entertain with the band…you’ll have a chance of doing, well, something (it really all depends – on what, you’re not currently sure) in the process. You can also decide to “talent scout” and check out the musical capability of one person (name PM’ed to me); if you find a member of your band you’ll get to reunite with them, giving you better options but be warned – it’s hard to play and scout at the same time which means the entertainment value will go down (though increased band members will help this). Goal – Currently, you would like to reunite the Electric Mayhem – you know there are at least two other members out there – but it wouldn’t hurt to find that job again so keep your eyes open for that.
Sgt. Floyd Pepper – Alignment: Good (Electric Mayhem); Okay, so after the Muppet troupe got scattered, you felt you could go do better on your own. You had Yoki No Oni – the plastic performer – giving you encouragement but, man, if you felt your genius was sometimes trash, well, she literally plays in trash and you’re not exactly enjoying this. Maybe it’s time to reunite with the old band but you’re not sure how to get back together with them. While you wait that out, your mellow riffs and solid – Yoki filled your bass guitar with cement as an art piece – tunes will help you. Each night you can PM me the name of two players, the first is a person you wish to misdirect and the other is the first’s new target. Goal – Y’know, like just hang until the band gets back together and after that, hey, you’ve seen how the solo life is so maybe you’ll take some direction from Dr. Teeth on what to do next.
Animal – Alignment: Good (Electric Mayhem); Animal! Animal! Animal! Waitasec…where did everyone go? Hrmm…this isn’t good. Animal! Wait…calm down…throw something down...er, no, wait, that’s not right. Animal! Okay, so you’re not the heavy thinker of the group but you’re certainly not someone to mess with and anyone targeting you is likely going to be in trouble. You can’t post during the day phase beyond votes (legit ones, not “code votes”) – at least as it currently stands – but you’re pretty safe at Night. Goal: Try not to eat too many people while waiting for the band to get back together and after that, well, long as Teeth gives you lots of head-banging to do, you might consider whatever he suggests be the band’s next gig.
I was Scooter, and I was a roleblocker.
And since the game was over, I'd like Rokk to tell me just exactly how many people targeted me the first night. He said that a LOT of people targeted me the first night, so I'm curious as to just how many people a "LOT" turns out to be.

Waldorf – Alignment: Neutral; Whew. You thought you would never get rid of those awful performers. You’ve smelled thousand year old eggs – ones you were around when they were laid by the hen! – that stunk up a joint less than those guys. Still, it’s kind-of boring without them. Time for you and Statler to find new hobbies…poking fun at the people playing the game might be kind-of nice. You may PM back and forth with Statler (played by Scarlet Witch) who is your partner. Additionally, during the Night Phase you may decide to harass the rest of the group enough that it makes it tougher for them to get anything accomplished – PM me whether you want to make lynching easier or tougher; once a certain number of lynch votes have been reached for an individual, the power will come into play but be warned: you don’t do anything silently which means your action will be publicized (how are they going to reach you in the balcony anyway?). You and Statler are of the same mind, so when voting you must both vote for the same individual. Goal – Right now, just survive until you and Statler have peace and quiet again…but a part of you misses the fun of harassing the Muppet Show, so who knows what goals may spring into your mind as the game advances.
Statler – Alignment: Neutral; Heckling is an artform and the practice of Harumphing was started by your ancestor, the first Duke of Statler. That means you’ve had a proud tradition to uphold over the years but gosh-darn-it if those Muppets didn’t make it too easy. Thankfully they’re now gone…but who do you have to hassle? Sure, you could pick on Waldorf but Astoria will just sick that gal Iris – the one that keeps asking about your tax returns – on you again, so maybe you should just pick on the Muppets playing in the game. You may PM back and forth with your partner, Statler (played by m_a_caque). Additionally, each Night Phase you may PM me the name of a player that you wish to heckle. The individual is likely to get so upset that their action gets misdirected during the course of the evening (if you’ve been heckling “in character” in the thread, the chances of it being an advantageous – at least to you – misdirection increases). You and Waldorf are of the same mind, so when voting you must both vote for the same individual. Goal: Get these goofballs out of your theater so that you and Waldorf can go find someone else to bother – those people in Congress look ripe for the picking! Still, the Muppets are kind-of fun to poke fun at so who knows, maybe you’ll have a change of heart…if you can reach the top of the transplant list in time!
Jareth, the Goblin Prince – Alignment: Neutral (The Labyrinth); Now this is…annoying. You were debating what game to play next with mortals and before you knew it, you were moved from your Labyrinth and set into the midst of these annoying…Muppets (and as a being who spends much of his time with goblins, you know much about annoyance). It appears that some errant minions of yours have performed actions that have led to this situation and you are not very happy about it. There might be some fun to be had here though, even if you’re not sure whether it’s worth your time. In search of your wayward servants, each Night Phase you may PM me the name of one player and find out their alignment and faction. You are also the powerful Goblin Prince though and other powers may be available to you, especially as the game advances. Goal – Find the missing Labyrinth faction individuals; you are also seriously contemplating turning this game on its’ head, so don’t be surprised when your goal expands.

Crazy Harry – Alignment: Neutral; Crazy Harry play with electricity! And dynamite! And nuclear fusion – or maybe it’s fission, you have trouble keeping the two straight. Hey, as long as it goes BOOM! Hehehehe! You’re not entirely sure what you’re planning to do here but in the meanwhile collateral destruction sounds good to you. Each Night you may PM me the name of a location from the following list – Backstage, the Theater, Doc Hopper’s Eatery, the Music Pit, the Hidden Places, Bunsen’s Lab, Veterinarian Hospital, or the Balcony. The damage you cause is likely to wreck some havoc and there’s a chance it’ll last even more than one night. Goal – You’re not really certain yet – primarily just stick around and cause as much damage as possible (hint!).
Sqeek – Alignment: Neutral (The Labyrinth); Your full name is actually Semaphorus Quickius Easius Elasticus Komfortabilis but considering you would like to finish this game in a timely manner, you figure it’s simpler if everyone calls you Sqeek. You’re not sure how you got here from the Labyrinth. The last you checked you were just opening up the door with the big “Do Not Disturb!” sign on it (what harm could happen from that?). The Goblin Prince is likely to be pretty darn angry with you so you should probably get back in touch with him. These Muppets are definitely not your type though and you don’t think you should be socializing with them too much. A master – at least in your dreams – of semaphore communication, your sharp eyes make you pretty good at spotting things, believe it or not. Each Night you may PM me the name of a player and you will receive some information – yes, random, you’re a goblin, not James Bond – about that player’s character. Note that because you’re not very certain of these Muppets, you may not truthfully role-claim in the game as you just don’t think the Prince would be very happy with you revealing yourself to this group. Goal – You’re the Goblin Who Wants to Come in from the Cold…which in this case means re-endearing yourself to the Goblin Prince and then helping him with his goals.

If I remember right, besides being targeted for kidnapping - and then, ironically, someone tried to misdirect the kidnappers to you anyway - you were also misdirected, roleblocked, scouted twice and something else that escapes me at the moment.

Doc Hopper – Alignment: Evil (Doc Hopper’s Frog Leg Emporium); Mmm…mmm! You can already smell those frog legs cooking, even if all anyone else is smelling is wet bear (darn Sweetums for drooling too much during the kidnapping). That frog, oh that talented frog, will have to come after his best friend. You’ve spent too much time trying to reclaim your life to hold a grudge but you’re already thinking of all the different ways to advertise your business…maybe you can hire that Bubba guy who rambles on about shrimp? You’re the ringleader – the Don – of this whole business and your crew consists of Amora’s best friend, KitsuShel and Screaming Banshee, all of whom can PM with the other Emporium members. You’re kind-of hoping for some new recruits but you aren’t sure how to go about that yet. First thing’s first though, and each Night is your responsibility to PM me which player the Emporium is targeting and who is undertaking the kidnapping (remember whomever does it can’t use their Night Power that turn). You’re a pretty crafty guy which comes into play in two ways: the first is that if you don’t perform the kidnapping yourself, anyone checking up on you is going to get misleading information but there’s a reason you’re the boss instead of a minion – you’re better at kidnapping than the rest of your crew (i.e. – in game terms, that means powers that may misdirect, protect, etc. have a chance of failing if you’re the one doing the kidnapping). Goal – You wish you could get just the frog but you know those other Muppets will interfere so best be rid of the whole batch and kidnap or chase off all Good alignment characters.
Sweetums – Alignment: Evil (Doc Hopper’s Frog Leg Emporium); Shucks, you know the Muppet Show was good to you – even if they did keep trying to ditch you as they headed across the country – and, yeah, you don’t actually want any of them hurt but, well, frog legs, pork chops, bear steaks, Gonzo…well, whatever you would get from him…what’s a monster to do? You may swing over back to the Muppets – you really don’t want the little guys hurt…at least not when you aren’t hungry (and, truthfully, they all kind-of taste like felt) but for now you’re backing Doc Hopper and his Bottomless Bucket of Frog Legs (at least you have’t found a bottom for it yet, though you find that makes it hard to keep the frog legs in it). Besides being able to PM the other members of the Emporium – Iron Ham, KitsuShel and Screaming Banshee - your large snout makes you particularly adept at tracking down Muppets. Each Night you may PM me the name of a player to learn something about that player’s character (the less sympathy you have for the character, the more information you may garner). Goal – Mmm…mmm. Help Doc Hopper kidnap or chase off all of the Good alignment characters.
The Junk Lady – Alignment: Evil (The Labyrinth); Oh me, oh my, what do we have here dearie? It appears you – a member of the agnes goblins – has wandered off from the Labyrinth and into this interesting world. You’re sure the Goblin Prince would not approve, nor would these little chickadees understand what you are, but you’re sure you can find some good things here. This Doc Hopper has promised you plenty of…frog legs…but you have many different legs already in your pack. Still, you’ll stick by him…for the time being. You may PM with the members of Doc Hopper’s Frog Leg Emporium (the Mob) – Iron Ham, Amora’s best friend, and Screaming Banshee - but you feel it best if they are kept in the dark as to the true nature of your plans, so you may not reveal to them your true faction (Labyrinth) or Goals. You’re very adept at weaving illusions of desire – giving someone item upon item until they’re…just…like…you – and each night you may PM me the name of a player whom you wish to roleblock for the evening. Goal: Currently, you know there are other Labyrinth individuals out there, and you wouldn’t mind bringing one of them over to your side, but the Goblin Prince must be removed. You would also like to remove Doc Hopper – how to do so, oh that is a good question – in which case you will take over the Mob and bend it to your own purposes. Time to tread delicately and in the meantime, let’s see what pretty things there are to gather up into your haversack.
Junior Gorg – Alignment: Evil (Doc Hopper’s Frog Leg Emporium); Daddy, why’d you have to send me over here with these silly goofy Muppets? Oh, wait he’s not here, so no point in crying to him right now. Still, you can’t wait to get back to the land of the Gorgs and catch yourself some Fraggles. Your father, though, believes this is a good experience for you and you want to make him proud so that one day you’ll be just as good a King Gorg as him! You aren’t the brightest but you try very hard at whatever you do and in this case, it’s helping Doc Hopper. Each night you may PM me if you’re shielding (with the bright new shield your mother gave you!) Doc Hopper or standing guard – protecting Hopper makes powers used against him possibly turn back upon the originating player, while standing guard means if anything should befall Doc Hopper, you will become the actual target (this can extend into the Day Phase should you not have to do anything during the Night). Oh, and even though you’re not supposed to talk to strangers, Daddy King Gorg says you can speak to the rest of Doc’s Mob: Iron Ham, Amora’s best friend and KitsuShel. Goal: Help Doc Hopper kidnap or chase off the “Good” alignment characters; even if you’re out-of-the-game because of your willingness to get a bit bruised for Doc Hopper, you’ll still win should Doc Hopper’s Frog Leg Emporium meet its’ win condition.

Great game.
Seems like ALOT of thought went into the roles.
I wish I hadn't died so early lol.
Yes. Musically talented people were recruitable by both the Goblin Prince and Dr. Teeth (the Prince only after he took over the Mafia).
I knew it.
I just couldn't say anything since I was converted.

Oh, and the Books of Magic were Gonzo's fault. :) Melkhor's role for the evening was basically "Fanboy" - he got to choose one comic series/storyline and for that Night Phase and the next Day Phase, folks converted roles. Some people that had been good previously were now Evil and vice-versa...so I was to snicker a bit when people were using the BoM roles to decide who was good/evil the next day. :)
If I remember right, besides being targeted for kidnapping - and then, ironically, someone tried to misdirect the kidnappers to you anyway - you were also misdirected, roleblocked, scouted twice and something else that escapes me at the moment.
Wow..... :surprised
But what about when we lynched Antipathy? What exactly happened to get him out of that one alive?
Oh, and on a completely unrelated note, I absolutely LOVED my role as Gonzo the Great! :)
Because you asked, during the Books Of Magic phase, I was Tannarak (Evil), warlock night club host. Being evil, I was the one to cast the last vote to lynch Cricket who I knew was good.
Before turning Evil, Rokk said I could protect 1 player. I picked SS because to my knowledge he was stil Kermit. This is why all the votes against him didn't count.

For the record, I was totally shooting in the dark for all my early lynch targets. No skill involved whatsoever. Just dumb luck.
And to everyone in the game, was it THAT obvious that I was Kermit? At what point did you realize it?

Wow, oh wow. This game was an emotional roller coaster ride for me. Multiple times I was sure I was going to die, but then something happened that allowed me to live.
When I was "lynched", I was actually captured by the Phantom of the Opera, and taken to the Hidden Places. At night, I had a choice to play 3 different songs for the Phantom. One would be bad for me, one would free me, and one would give me a capability. On the advice of my friend, I chose the one that would give me a capability, which let the Phantom scout for me. He would find out who one person targeted for the evening.

You said if I had targeted The Vision on Night 2, then I would've recruited him. Why was that?

Each night you can PM me the name of two players, the first is a person you wish to misdirect and the other is the first’s new target.
BEST.ROLE.EVER.
SO I was never the goblin prince? Just thought I was?? :cry: :cry: :cry:
I TOLD YOU ALL I WASN'T EVIL!! :cheeky: :cheeky: :cheeky:

I knew by night two. I target you first night, thought you were piggy, then in night 2 I figured it out because of ma-caque's misdirection.

You never told me if I was evil or not as The Endless. I just kept playing as if I was Beaker/Honeydew (didn't matter they killed me anyway).

He had been targeted by the Phantom event early in the game (and had the "Goblin Prince bonus"...which is why there were so many question marks as to what happened to him on the day of the lynch posting). It had severe restrictions but in Antipathy's case worked out kind-of handily.
What was the Goblin Prince bonus, and how was I selected for the Phantom event?
If the full write-up explains this, then you don't have to bother asking. I can wait a couple day. :)

Just wanted to add that my power was blocked in some way shape oor form from night 4 until the end. The first night, my target died. So basically, I only ever got to use my power effectively twice. That stinks.

Yeah, but at least you got some good use out of those two uses :)
I mean, we managed to work together pretty darn well I'd say! :)

Yeah, I misdirected you twice onto different people in the beginning. When you said night one that your power "went crazy" that was me.
That's when I thought you were piggy and roleblocker.

I must admit I'm a little puzzled as to why no-one ever tried to do anything to me. I really didn't seem like a threat to anyone in this game despite my blinding intellect and vast array of powers? :)
Truly I was Gonzo the Great in this game! :)

Since I role claimed so early in the game, I was also surprised I wasn't taken out until the end.
I guess being the townies roleblocker isn't that big of a deal afterall.

I believe that was my blunder. I think I told him to go for JackA and then stupid me went for him as well. I can't quite remember. The last week or so has been a blurr.

Ah, you guys should have known better. The Goblin Prince was around from the beginning; I started out as the Swedish Chef and it was clear that I got transformed from the change in my talking. I couldn't be the Prince. After eliminating me as a possiblity you only had one other choice. :p

Not really, you're slick enough to have pretended to be the chef from the beginning. We never actually got to investigate you. My power didn't work past night 3.

I had planned on finding out who the Jareth was, having Hopper kidnap him and then "accidentally" getting Hopper killed.

I took it over Night 4, so you did have 4 nights to take sstralk out.
The 2-3 nights I was don of the Doc Hopper mafia and the one night I was don of the Labyrinth mafia I didn't take out sstralk because I thought he had a defensive ability.
