Before we begin, let's recap the rules (paraphrased from Peers' many wonderful games):
Things to remember:
1) A full writeup of the rules can be found here (http://www.mafiascum.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page) This game will be more complicated than what's described there, as nearly everyone has some sort of 'special thing' about them. Doesn't mean everyone has a night power, but you never know...
2) When you vote, please do so by saying Vote: [Player] in bold. If you wish to change your vote, please say Change Vote: [Player] instead. Voting for 'Nobody' is a valid vote; if a majority votes for 'nobody' then nobody will be lynched and we'll move on to the Night phase.
3) If your role says you -may- PM me a target, you don't have to do anything at night. Even so, it'll speed things along quite a bit if you'd still just send me a PM saying "Not using my [whatever] power tonight, thanks."
4) If your role says you -must- PM me a target, and you do not? I'll pick one randomly. Or, perhaps, not-so-randomly. Don't blame me if you target someone who kills you.
5) You may NOT send a PM to anyone about this game unless your role explicitly says you can. This is cheating.
6) Do NOT edit your posts in this thread. This is cheating.
7) Please do not copy-and-paste anything from any PM I send you to the thread. This is also cheating.
8) Please do not post in this thread after you are killed. This, too, is cheating and can ruin the game if done wrong.
9) Cheaters don't get to play in any other Mafia games I run. Period.
10) Remember, it's just a game. You will get paranoid, you will be stabbed in the back by someone, you will see somebody do or say something stupid and want to smack them. Just breathe deep and relax. If things get out of hand, we do have a mod playing who will forcibly remind you to chill out if needed. It hasn't happened yet, and I'd like to keep it that way.
11) Quoth Tuttle: EXPECT ANYTHING!!!
PMs have already been sent out to everyone who'd expressed interest in playing.

Black Adam had won. He diverted all the energy in the Sattelite to move it into deep space where no one would find it.
He himself returned to earth on his own power, where he publicly denounced the "crimes" comitted by the Justice League. How they had taken it upon themselves to erase minds, how they had acted like rogues themselves and killed people they thought might guilty.
The image of the Justice League was tarnished forever in America. Caped heroes were forever looked upon with un-ease.
What was needed, was one man, who would represent Truth, Justice, and maybe even a bit of the American Way. But Superman was dead, his body missing somewhere hidden in the Sattelite (or at least that's what Black Adam led people to speculate)
The one day, something happened. The sattelite reappeared in earth's orbit.
What had brought it back? And what secrets did it now keep? Was it's reappearance a message of hope? Or did was a new horror lying in wait.
On their own volition, several individuals found their way back to the Sattelite. All wary of each other, not knowing who they were under their civilian identies, they explored the Satelitte to find clues as to why it appeared, and if what Black Adam had said held any truth.
But the Sattelite was different. Someone had modified it. There was a new room, a dungeon of sorts, that seemed to be equiped with a neural inhibitors, something that would render a person in a comatose type state where they wouldn't be able to use their power.
Those aboard now realized this was a trap. They went to leave the former JLA base, but it was too late. Everything started to power down, they no longer had the power to use transports or the teh teleporter.
They were stuck, and they were sure someone here was responsible.
TMNT99 can not be found. He was Superman... is he dead... or just missing?
With 36 players, 19 is a majority. You have 24 hours to reach a majority.
36 people?
Wow, That's a lot of people.
Again, please newbies, read the rules thoroughly. NO EDITS, NO POSTING DIRECTLY FROM MY PM'S.

On the first day, it isn't that big of a deal.
If we lynch a mafia member now, it takes down one asset for that team, but makes the chances of finding a mafia member even lower. It would be great to lynch one today, but not really great.
If we lynch a townie, we could get a useless role but then again, we could lynch the cop or the doctor right off the bat.

That's why I try to give a mix of Day Phase and Night Phase powers in my games; it keeps the first Day from feeling like "standard No Lynch".

I should note that isn't meant in a slam or "I do it better" or anything like that (honestly, I can think of plenty of people that put on better games and some serious faults in my games). Just was explaining why I do things the way I do on Day One (including my refusal to ever do a No Lynch vote even in other people's games anymore. :) ).

Hey, don't do it just cause I said so. Thats just the way I look at it.
I am also personally fine with going a second day of no lynch if nobody dies on the first night and nobody has any info (which is highly unlikely).
Heck, if it comes down to 3 townies and 1 mafia at the end, I'll vote no lynch so we can get it down to 2 townies and 1 mafia.
For me, its about when we can afford to go no lynch to give us a strategic advantage and the first day is one of the few times that applies.

While highly unlikely we are running into a bit of a nasty problem on these games where no one wants to -share- any information for fear of being targeted. That's leading to more and more "stall out" days and those -do- help the Mafia (e.g. - Mutant Massacre, X-Mansion, etc.). We need to start trying to figure out how to solve that problem or we're going to be facing some pretty bland Day Phases.
Heck, I'll be dead come Day Two anyway so I guess I shouldn't be complaining as the game is -always- boring at that point. :laugh:

People essentially have a choice: play boldly and risk getting killed, or cower with info and STILL risk getting killed.

I understand that your saying the odds of getting a Mafia opposed to a Townie is unlikely and it's all about timing when you can take afford to say No Lynch without it causing too much trouble. What I ment by my post was that you summed it up nicely and I agree with your logic thus I voted No Lynch.
But thank you for the help either way as it provided me with some more insight to the game.

I always come forth with what I know if what I know is incriminating.
I try to stay alive, but I'd rather tell people who is in the mafia and die because of it than die and carry important information to my grave.

I agree; just saying we're seeing a heavy trend of the latter as we keep running into Days where folks are saying, "Doesn't -anyone- have any information?".
turdburglar47
10/24/2007, 14:03
Well, my willingness to share info won us the Society game pretty handily, and it kept us in the game for the last JLA game for a while. You start sharing info early enough hopefully you can get protected.
And I think the opening day phase is more for people to realize "Oh, hey, the game has started!" and get involved rather than starting in the night phase and half the people forget to PM anything because they didn't know the game was underway.
Vote: No lynch.

By withdrawing information they are just letting more people get killed without any progress on figuring out who is doing it. At some point you have to play for the greater good of the team.
JKLantern
10/24/2007, 14:05
I've noticed that too. :ermm:
Ditto. And it's real annoying when pretty much no trackers have been killed.
Jackofhearts2005
10/24/2007, 14:06
Its cause everybody targeted Rokk and Shel, who are then killed off.
"Does anybody know anything?"
"Shel had a hairbrush in her room...before she died"
"Rokk didn't target anybody...probably because he was roleblocked."

Lynch Vote: No Lynch
Night 1 Is Over
He walke through the halls of the Sattelite with the utmost silence and persistence. He was happy to be equiped with such great weaponry.
He stood outside the door of his intended victim, and with one quick movement, kicked down the door and sent 3 boomerangs (that to call razor sharp would be a huge understatement) into the room.
His target would be sliced in half..
If not for a gail of wind so powerful that the boomerangs were sent back and through the walls of a different room. A slight death moan was heard from the other rooms occupant.
The attacker was suprised to see that he still had killed someone, and that such a might blast of wind to come from his intended targets room.
A voice was then heard from the original room, "Leave this room now!"
The attacker did so, before the voice came into the light and got a chance to see his face. He may not have killed the target, but at least it sounded like someone didn't make it through the night.
Throughout the night several others would meet with similar results, even if their intentions were far less sinister.
=====================================
In another part of the Sattelite, a man walked into a dark room, his victim lay completely asleep.
His skill may have been called into question by other, but tonight he would meet with nothing but success...
kinda, as he walked closer to the woman in bed, he tripped over his own feet, and produced a sound loud enough to startle the poor girl.
She instantly went into green fire, but not fast enough to avoid the rapier that went strait to her hear, but definately quick enough to let out one good firey blast that met her attacker.
He left her quickly, trying to put out the flames on himself.
She died slowly, but still she died.
========================================
One man had the best of intentions, as he slithered through the halls. He was quick and agile, suddenly though he was pushed through the halls at mach speed, and in a flash, was in a room he didn't expect to be in.
The room was empty, but someone had come in and out of the room.
He looked a bit closer, and found a secret passage behind the closet.
He decided to follow it down, to see where it might lead. He went into the belly of the Sateltie, where a dark secret was being kept. There he found a brutish figure about to leave his hidden dwelling place.
Imediately he sprang into action, moving his body and stretching himself to stop the monster from moving. The monster fought back, but to no avail, the man was to quick and far to agile to be thrown free or hurt.
The fight lasted long enough to exhaust both figures. The first decided the monster would be of no harm to anyone, decided to leave, and get back to his room. It would be too bad he didn't get a look at the name on the door before he went back to sleep.

Lastly, one woman felt a small pinch in her neck, and suddenly, she felt a little.. blue.

Impulse is dead. He was.. wait a minute. That dead person on the floor with the boomerang lodged in his throat is Impulse.. But it seems it was just a speed clone. The real Impulse must be still alive.
turdburglar47 is dead. He was the JLA member known as Fire, a beautiful woman with great detective skills.
NAES72 is seen to have several burns all over his body.

Well, I do know there's one speedster out there that's acting as a jailkeeper (thank you for keeping me alive last night though, alas, that also meant I was blocked from info-gathering....yeah, I'm claiming it just because I was sincere yesterday that I'd rather be straight-forward about my capabilities and let people judge from there).

He used a rapier to kill Fire. That pops three people to mind (and with this being JLA one in particular): Mark Shaw (as the Privateer or one of his other roles where he fought the JLA), Cavalier or Captain Stingaree. There are probably others...just saying off the top of my head, I'm not seeing anyone -too- heroic impaling folks with a rapier unless Zorro made it into the game. Oh, wait...guess there were a few time-displaced folks - that also fought the JLA but were heroes in their own time (e.g. - Jonah Hex, Black Pirate, etc.) - and at least one of them had a rapier as well. So, four come to mind.

I'm thinking the later. This is most likely Impulse from when he could make multiple versions of himself, "scouts" I think it's called.
And if that's true then I'm thinking Impulse is a cop or investigator with a chance to avoid death.
And what about the pinch on the neck and feeling blue, what was that about?

Eclipso has been known to imbed diamond shards into people so I wouldn't totally discredit it yet; either way though I think we need to wait for more information before getting too caught up in the "blue recruiter".
Stepper79
10/25/2007, 15:59
Eclipso doesn't recruit in the starro type sense (enslave)but would be more akin to Malice (Possess) and then goes jumping from body to body and as Antipathy points out the diamond is missing. I guess we need to figure out if we have a possession or a recruiter

I forgot about that... but I thought that was one instance not recurring
Boomer targeted Impulse - you can tell by the "Impulse dead clone"; current theory is that Impulse has a "limited protection from Night Kill"-power.
From the looks of it though he didn't. He targeted somebody in the room. Then a gust of wind blew out of the room redirecting the boomerangs where someone nearby got hurt. Then Impulse's clone shows up with a boomerang in his neck. I don't think Impulse was the target. Right now we either have a wind character misdirecting Boomerang, or a wind character protecting the guy in the room, but with a stipulation that saving one may get another killed.
Rokk_Krinn
10/25/2007, 16:02
Hmm...you know, I guess I just associated "wind" with a Speedster zipping along but I can see that.
At the risk of the Misdirector revealing himself, if someone did misdirect Boomerang last Night, might be a good time for that to be revealed before we hit Majourity; I'd almost be happier having Boomerang lynched and NAES blocked - as NAES seems to be more of a solo act - if that's possible.

Roleblock is when a character is prevented from performing there normal function (ie role) during the phase.
Recruit is when you target another character to bring them into your faction. They normally (but not always) lose their ability when they join.
NAES wasn't blocked he was burned when he targeted turd for death.

But after looking at it, you could be right. It says "his skill may be called into question" Perhaps he was like Catman in JLA 2, where he would have only a 25% chance of killing each night, or something like that.

Okay so I just got my comp working again...
From the write up it looks like somebody is controlling emotions/recruiting and Naes is either killing people or in the wrong place at the wrong time. Now it's time to read eveyone elses comments.
like i said was checking out trud last night when the killer came in and got hit by the fire
What exactly were you checking for? Alignment? Identification? Object that implies a certain character? If a blade to the heart would kill him?

It's a common enough power but not sure why he wasn't in the room getting torched in the write-up as it appears as if the only person getting burned was the one who put a rapier through Fire.

Yeah either way it wouldn't change the fact that he has Fire's "blood" on him right now. Guess that is enough evidence to convince me he's a killer of some sort or has something to do with the death of Fire.
I'm just going to feel bad if he's telling the truth but I guess it's worth the risk to stop a potential killer.

Two things.
1) NAES needs to start singing a better tune, and soon. So far it's just adding up to him lying, and badly.

I agree that I'll feel bad if it turns out he's telling the truth but, really, I think we'll feel worse if it turns out he's pulling our legs and we let him run rampants. Now, if we could get a lead on Boomerang instead I would find that far preferable but I don't see anyone volunteering that info (which is why I was coming forward as much as I was about my character/power - hoping to try to break the "trend" that's developing in Mafia games that's causing too many Days to get wasted either through No vote or little info being shared.)

It's one of the reasons I mentioned that feeling blue thing. Make sure everything that happened stays on the radar.
Eclipso right now is our leading candidate for it. Maybe we'll find out more later. In a game this big, there has to be quite a few info gatherers.

Yes, The lack of info out of fear of being targeted is definitely hurting but with that we have to make due with what info we do have. Because of that I decided to cast my vote already to stop the threat even if it is not a 100% shot it is better then nothing happening.
If nobody gives info we have to assume that nobody found anything of interest and just go on with the searches. While not the preferred method it's all we can do.

Well, in interest of becoming "a target" (like I'm not already just by stint of my big mouth and tendency to tire people out with my posts :ermm: ) so that other info-gatherers feel they can come forward: I am an information gatherer. I didn't get any info last Night due to being jailkept - I imagine the individual felt they were helping keep me alive for the Night so I didn't have deja vu all over again and it's -very- appreciated - but, hopefully, tonight I'll survive and come back with strong information on a player. There's a hefty drawback to my character but the info-gathering makes up for it (as I hope to be able to demonstrate).
Heck, like I said, I'm even willing to give out my character just so people don't waste time on me but I suspect it would be the opposite effect and lead people to check me out when we have better targets (I know that sounds suspicious but I think more will become clear later).

I withdrew my vote because I wanted to see what NAES had to say.
I can't say that I find it convincing. Manitou Raven dropping by Fire's room to check her alignment and getting burned on the same night that she's killed by a someone with a rapier ... yeah, nothing odd or implausible there :cheeky: .
Also, a random thought on the recruiter occurred to me. Could it be a Manhunter? I vaguely remember that the big "Milennium" crossover for DC back in the 80s involved the Manhunters manipulating various DC heroes. I don't recall if they had actual mind control powers, but they were pulling a lot of strings, and they have blue faces.
I'll be heading out now and probably won't get online until later this evening or tomorrow morning.

No, the Monster wasn't the jailkeeper. The "jailkept" was a bit less traditional - I was whisked through the hallways at high speeds, kept safe from harm but unable to perform any actions. It was that description that combines with the Night write-up that leads me to believe I'm the person who got dumped into the room with the Monster.

He'd best not be dead. There are debts to be paid to him and, frankly, it wasn't for others to kill him. No, Superman must be alive again and the heroes must be brought back into good standing. Never thought I would say that but events have definitely gone south and need fixing.

Why would the game be called Reign of Superman if there wasn't Superman in it?
And also, TMNT is the GM, so his character doesn't count.
Reign of the Supermen was a story arc that ran through DC where there were four "wannabee" Supermen - none of them the real deal but each with a claim of sorts on the title (just enough to leave us doubting) - and that's likely what's happening here: we have the Man of Tomorrow, The Man of Steel, Don't Call Me Superboy(tm), and the Last Son of Krypton.
TMNT's character may not be -directly- active in the game but his character does count for figuring out that no one is playing the Real Deal Superman as that's already "claimed" as his character in that write-up
Unknown, Michigan is -half- right in that I was giving out a clue to my character but it's not due to Riddler being one of my favourite villains; it's because, well, I have a reason (in part, I'm trying to make it so info-gatherers don't fall into the habit of not stepping forward, even if it means making me the target but also because I know I have a hefty drawback and I figure I should be ready for it to come into play.)
