View Full Version : Arrested Development 1-Liners Mafia (Come on!!!)

LEGOs is underway, and I have my next 4 game ideas lined up, and unintentionally, but quite interestingly, they are all themed! AD1L's will be game 1 in a series of 4+ games revolving around some of my favorite TV shows that were all cancelled before their 5th season, so I hope you guys are ready for this wild ride =]

Arrested Development 1-Liners will be a normal enough game where everybody sends in 3-5 of their favorite 1-Liners from AD, and I will come up with powers that fit somewhat with those one liners. If you aren't sure if your quote is good enough, send it anyway!

Game 2 will be a game based on Dollhouse (Co-Modded by TBB). This will be an anonymous game with lots of surprises!

Game 3 will be "How 'The Cape' Should have been", with an opening write-up as my pitch for what would have made The Cape a much better, yet darker show. The game will then finish the story.

Game 4 will be based on The 4400, and everyone starts out with a shot of Promicin. Will you take the 50/50 risk to either die or develop a super power, or will you stick with your faction and try to win with just your wit and grit? (May be a good candidate for another Facebook game if the players are interested)

Now, let's start the sign up for the first game in the series. I have no limit on players, and I will start shortly after LEGOs finishes (taking into account I will be a father soon). So, who will be the first to plunge into this experiment (not counting K-ness who is autosigned for the whole shebang)?

This is the least hipster sign up ever I swear.

Magnito

Okay. This, I'll play.

Robo-Onion

Thanks for the signups! Now I need 1-Liner submissions =]

Can Game 3 include Abed's scenes in "Paradigms of Human Memory" (from "Community")? :)

I was debating taking a step back but you have some solid things lined up.

Now I just need to find out if the Snoopy scene from AD counts, despite not being a "one-liner".

ohhhh! I haven't played one of these in a long time and this.......this is one I need! I'm in if there's still space.

Still plenty of space =]

Thinking of turning this game into an experimental 101 type of game, where everyone will be told up front what the game could include. If I do this, there will be no twists or surprises, just a normal game with pretty standard roles. Knowing that your role is known by everyone will force you to play your role a bit differently; and everyone, new and old, will have a fairly level playing field.

I hope that this format will allow new players to ease into the average game here instead of getting thrown into a deep end of cut throat meta game competition. To do this, I will need 15-25 players and the consent from most players to try out an experimental game =]

Same here. Still interested.

I'm good with whatever.

Sweet!

Here is the role pool with the definites in bold and the possibles listed in plain text. Once the game hits 16+ more roles are unlocked. I want to shoot for somewhere in between 15-25.

Still down for this game. :)

Feel free to continue to submit 1-liners, but I do almost have enough for every role (and currently working on filling the holes). I am cool with still swapping some out, but I am trying to tie the lines to the roles somewhat, so I may tweak yours a bit (tweaking 1 submission already, but I think you will be happy with it =])

ChiRocker

I officially have all 25 possible roles with quotes attached (most make a bit of sense at least), but I would love to start with at least 17 players.

Please, tell your friends about this game =]

I am in, but you explain what a 1-liner is? Thanks...

It is a 1 Line quote from the show that alone is quite funny.

Example:

"Oh, I'll get the last laugh, Michael. By the end of the day, I'll be the laughing stock of the whole boardwalk!"

LEGOs just ended, I have all the roles ready, and I will start sending them out now. I will most likely open the game today, but with an extended day 1 phase due to the unexpected opening.
