[Mini] Murder Most Phalla, a tale of Sherlock Holmes - VILLAGE WIN (Day 6)
Murder Most Phalla a Lost Tale of the Legendary Sherlock Holmes - created by SkyCaptain w/advice from Rawkking Goodguy -
- hosted by SkyCaptain -
This is a typical mini-phalla consisting of 25 players who will take on the roles of protagonists and antagonists from the tales of Sherlock Holmes, written by Arthur Conan Doyle. As usual, the rules common in most phalla's applies here regarding pro-boards, anonymous communication, revelation f roles and abilities via screenshots, et al. Don't be a goose please. I'm a phalla-host virgin.

Special Rules
There are none. This is a mostly vanilla phalla with some different, non-exclusive win conditions for different factions within the citizens and mafia. Mostly for bragging rights. :mrgreen:

Oh I know, I figured get it up now and get some interest and then it'll start when everyone gets back from PAX. It's also only 6:35 am eastern on a Saturday morning. :mrgreen:

The RPG Bestiary - Dangerous foes and legendary monsters for D&D 4th Edition
My cousin made this game: Gem Pop. It's legitimately fun, particularly for people who enjoy Bejewled, Dr. Mario, Tetris, etc. kinds of games. Only two bucks! If you try it out, PM me with what you think of it.
So while we're waiting for people to show up back from PAX can we use this thread to discuss how awesome Jeremy Brett was?
The most awesome. He is Sherlock Holmes. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle could see into the future and wrote the books so that Jeremy Brett could play that part on the BBC.
Oh, since this was brought up in IRC, it should be noted that I helped SkyCaptain with the game balance and making sure all appropriate info was in the role PMs. I am not a co-host.
Any clarifications or orders sent to me will be met with humorous and completely false replies
!Has there been a murder?
(My biggest exposure to Sherlock Holmes has been through Star Trek TNG)
If you have Netflix you should know that all of the Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes productions are available for instant streaming. It's the best possible way to introduce yourself to the stuff. They're even better than reading the books, and I love the books.
I'd recommend either watching the season that starts with "A Scandal in Bohemia" and "The Dancing Men" or "The Hound of the Baskervilles" movie first. "A Study in Scarlet" is the first story, but it's tonally different from the others and kind of sucks.
Obviously, I don't really know either. The theory was that I had more important things to do this time of year than play phalla, but that's ridiculous.
Judging by what you've said in the past you work even crazier hours than I do, so I'm pretty sure you set the standard for us all as the iron horse of phalla.

pshh, who doesn't wake up at quarter to five each day and work 9-10 hours with an hour each way commute?

Nice touch :^:
This game is a bit on the high-powered side, but nothing unreasonable. Just be ready for the unexpected!
Though when this all goes wrong you only have yourself to blame for trusting Rawkking Betrayalguy

After this one I'll be on break for real. Honestly. As long as no one's planning an Iliad phalla or anything.
Actually. . . that would be awesome. Ajax could be the SK. The seer would be Cassandra, though I dunno how you'd make sure no one would believe her.

Whats a phalla break?
It's what happens when you die Day One in every currently running game. That week or so of no playing Phalla.
I think, at least.

Theoretically Evil
Something that inevitably fails miserably.
