    I think the good guys may have been slightly overpowered, but I also think Maximus dropped the ball with his private reveal to me.

    Also, I was suspicious of Sarah Connor longer than I should have been. Did her kill trump the vote? B/c man, Teh. We could have ended this earlier by voting either Trust or Stew_stick.

    Trust, AFAIK, we had no idea what your deal was.

    Her kill was the vote.

    I just liked the idea of Sarah Connor downing termy instead of the vote.

    I thought good guys might be a tad overpowered, by there were 5 (and if the Doctors screwed with time 6) evil/neutrals who would have wanted you all dead. If you hadn't played Maximus like a fiddle, evil stood a solid chance of victory by the end.

    It was an awesome game to play. I wish I was a little smarter about being the Time Guard, but I was a little confused by what I could do from the PM.

    The narration was awesome, it made me laugh at the right moments.

    I had fun.

    We probably would have done better if rainfall hadn't outed me so early.

    edit:No hard feelings though, we all knew it was a big risk, and it just didn't work this time.

    This was a fun game, but WOW the Cult of Skaro got screwed over.

    Funny story, I actually SLEPT IN on Day 2, and woke up about two minutes before vote close to find a PM in my box finding out that Hylian was a Vigilante targeting Squash and knowing that we had sent in an order to kill Hylian in the past.

    So day 3 was pretty much avoidable if it wasn't for my sleeping habits. I'm sorry, guys. I fail.

    My 'OH NOES' face was quite horrifying. It got even worse when it turned out that Matatat had been Hylian's target the previous day.

    And shit went down from there.

    I got panic-y when Squash contacted me. Did I play that right Squash? I didn't really have anything planned, as I'd only just become a Raptor, and was trying to steer you away from the fact that Nick Cutter had died with no name attached.

    I picked Sam Beckett because I'd been moaning about him in the thread.

    Rainfall - I was guarded that night by Toxic. We didn't know who else to guard and certainly were NOT guarding you, as not only did you claim to be a neutral. Also, we presumed ppl wouldn't target you as they'd assume you'd be guarded. :D

    Trust, the Same Beckett thing was a little odd to me, but I did take it as part of your role and somewhat believed you b/c you said that thing about getting a new PM every round.

    I was still puzzled over the Raptor thing, but now that's cleared up. Never even crossed my mind.

    You did good. Figured I'd point Maximus at you (as our "seer" attempt) and leave Stew_stick for last.

    So I told LaOs to say that you were Sarah Connor and that Stew_stick was the GUARDIAN Doctor.

    "Biff Tannen". Perfect disguise.

    This was indeed a fun game, Gumpy.

    Rainfall giving us the other dalek actually worked out pretty well for us in the end- we got two fifths of the bad guys for the price of one vigilante...which is not as terrible as it could have been.

    Rainfall actually didn't get too much out of me as far as names (other than Hylian's), so Qorzm's death was just a sad happenstance. Sorry Doc- I wish I'd gotten you that note to put on your bullet proof vest in the past :(

    If you hadn't figured it out by now I really don't like vanilla vanillas.

    Also Mr E died the night his ability would have gone active, awful pity.

    Anyhoo, is this a concept I could use in my main Phalla, Star wars is fun and all but a 50 man time travel fest? Could work?

    I'm still not a fan of games where everyone has a name, but I DO like that this game did not have a restrictive setting. Meaning that anyone could be anyone as long as they qualified for some type of time travel interaction.

    Yeah Squash I just told him I was a bad guy. He tole me he was a villager, when let's face it, with the setting, there aren't really going to be any villagers about. So I didn't tell him the whole truth.

    Squash, I didn't reveal to matatat because I thought I was vanilla (and I was, kinda). I didn't want to swamp him with people all revealing, and him end up seering me as vanilla, instead of seering someone important.

    We wanted a list of players to sort through so we'd have an idea of who might be lying.

    I actually would not have believed a Rip Hunter.

    Pretty much no one revealed to Matatat.

    I'm sorry. I want to kick myself now. I wasn't thinking in 4D. I guarded Matatat, The 10th Dr. Who, with out realising I was gaurding myself.

    If it counts for anything, I kept TehSpectre, Sarah Connor, safe from Maximus, The Terminator. And had my teams back.
