    The description said it hit everything in the zone. I expected we'd be caught in the resulting explosion, not by the laser itself. What happens when you launch a missile at your feet?

    well, assuming you have a missile launcher and you can physically aim it at your foot,

    you probably cut off your foot and burn youself to death from close proximity to the nozzle. it most likely wouldn't blow up though.

    And yes Burnage, this proved you can only outrun my wrath for...like a year!

    My grudge is settled.

    For now

    Oh man, day two was confusing for me.

    "Hey guys, if you vote for me, I'm going to smack Dunadan."
    "Let's all vote Burnage!"
    "Cool, I'll fulfill my promise."
    "HOLY SHIT Burnage hit me he must be evil!"
    "What the fuck, Burnage is hitting other players? Totally evil!"
    "What?"
    "Burnage is a Gundam. This makes him evil."
    "Pretty sure all Gundams aren't evil, jack."
    "But we're all agreed that Burnage is evil anyways, right?"
    "Yes."

    What.

    Honestly, I thought if I posted enough pretty pictures on Day 2 then I would have the valor vote wrapped up. Alas, I had to construct an argument out of the void, and I really have no familiarity with the source material. My wiki-fu informed me over time just how weak the 'gundams are all evil' argument really was, but it still seemed to get the job done for a time.

    From the perspective of my character, everything I said was true though :P

    When I fired three shots at Burnage night one, I got the message that I had spotted my enemy: Gundam

    I took this to mean that if I attacked a Gundam, I would figure it out. So kind of.

    This is hilarious.

    I was forced to name 3 people as my "support team" night 1.

    I named Wildcat (good), Mr.D (neutral/faction), and CJ (mafia). Because I'm a tank, I don't think it'll hurt to ask these people if they mind being my support group- I have no idea what this does, and didn't until the final day.

    Sooooo....All goes fine until Wildcat dies, and I get depressed, because my friend died. I can't use melee attacks.

    Then I reveal to Gumpy on the final day that I know one of my friends is a mafia. Whoops- More depression- there went my AT field.

    And when Mr.D dies during the final night, I go insane and apparently attack a random target- a mafia.

    HAHAHAHA.... So much win.

    Oh, my Role PM:

    I've got a few problems with the mechanics of the game based off my own experience:
    1) All those grunts made it almost impossible to really target mafia players. It seem hopeless day 3 with the battleship (and 30 HP). I basically kamikaze the ship and died. Less grunts or more HP for the grunts might have balance out this problem.

    2) Public reveals. I had to reveal to get Dann of Thursday but I had no idea that Wednesday was here to kill me. And Law didn't have to reveal to get Wednesday either. So I was at a disadvantage from the beginning. So to get my powerful mecha, I had to put a target on my chest. Not cool. I would have either made the power to get Dann different (kill 2 grunts with the weaker Brownie mecha) or had a warning that by revealing, I was making it know that someone was out to get me.

    This was largely what made me suspect Zandracon, but he is known to occasionally forget to send orders (see: my-hime phalla).

    It turns out he both forgot to send orders AND was evil.

    And Samurai, you should in the future always consider that epic revealing might be a danger, especially since the last mini had objectives like this one.

    I am actually fairly surprised that none of the mafia were from Big O.

    Your Ranged Strength: None

    The smallest machine by far, but you might be the most important one. Instead of taking the enemy head on, you seek to combine and improve your allies, and then take the enemy head on.

    Your Abilities: IMPACTO: Every day, you may combine with the target, giving you their identity. If you do not combine with a different target the following night, then their abilities will be boosted in some way by your spiral power. You cannot attack if you are combined or combining with someone.

    Your win condition: Prevent the Enemy from capturing Terminal Failures

    I wouldn't have suspected you if you hadn't shot me, assuming your attack came when you said it did. Attacks on me registered as attacks on the Phalliant, and I interpreted the attack as a mafia trying to bring down the ship since nobody else would have bothered to attack it.
