edited August 2012 in Critical Failures
You’ve been evil your whole life. Your family has disowned you. You’ve alienated most people who would even think of you as a friend. Being bad is a pretty solitary existence. Still awesome, though! Who else gets to spend their weekend planning heist jobs to steal the Wonderflonium they need for their freeze ray? Nobody, that’s who. You don’t know of anybody who’s as good at being bad as you are.
Until that day... that fateful day. You are sifting through your mail, and notice that one envelope seems… heavier than the others. Not physically, of course. This one is heavy as if it is heavy with possibility, as if your entire future revolves around what is inside of this envelope. Another thing you notice is that the envelope is jet black, with no distinguishing information on it, save for a wax seal on the back flap, bearing the letters E.L.E.
Could it be? Is it the Evil League of Evil? You open it without a moment’s delay!
Bad Horse
Bad Horse
Bad Horse
Bad Horse

He rides across the nation
The thoroughbred of sin
The League has an opening,
now do you want in?

You need evaluation
So let the games begin!
A heinous crime, a show of force
A murder would be nice, of course

Bad Horse
Bad Horse
Bad Horse
He's bad

We know just where to find you,
There’s nowhere you can hide.
If what we hear about you is true
Then you’re in for a hell of a ride

You’ll get another letter
with orders just for you.
You’ll compete to see who’s better
We’ve room for just a few

Bad Horse
Bad Horse
Bad Horse
Bad Horse

The Evil League of Evil
Is watching, so beware
The grade that you receive
Will be your last, we swear

So make the Bad Horse gleeful
Or he'll make you his mare . . .

Get saddled up
There's no recourse
It's Hi-Ho Silver
Signed Bad Horse


Game Overview

This is a Phalla game, Penny Arcade Forum's version of the party game Mafia. Standard rules and regulations apply.
IF YOU EDIT YOUR VOTE POST I WILL TRAMPLE YOU IN YOUR SLEEP. -Neeeeeigh-

Voting

There is talk of infiltration. Can it be? Have heroes made it into the E.L.E initiation process? Outrageous. Still, that guy looks suspicious. Bad Horse has authorized one kill per night to be done as a group. Nominate your choice of victim with your vote in Bold Red
Vote close is 10PM CST. Translate that to your moon location where appropriate


Orders

All orders must be submitted before vote close.

Players are expected to make one vote and one non-vote post every day. Failure to do so will be seen as a lack of commitment to the Phallympic ideals and will result in your replacement or removal.

Signing Up

Sign up with the phrase "!sign up" or similar phrase in bold limegreen. After signing up, please PM the host with two names. One for your Villain name. This name will be used to identify you in narration. I also want a hero name from you, to be used if you are chosen as mafia. This will be used upon your death, should such a thing happen

Clarifications

Any questions about the general game rules may be made by highlighting the question in bold darkorange text. Answers will be posted in the thread and collected in the below section. Player-specific inquiries that are not addressed in the general rules may be asked via PM to the host.


Other Rules

Standard Phalla rules apply: no sharing of host-provided PMs via screenshots or direct quotation. However, information may be shared indirectly, such as through rephrasing. You may not add new players to preexisting private conversations after the first message - start a new conversation instead. No anonymous contact is allowed. All messages must be traceable to a player in the game. Once you are eliminated, you may not make any more game conversation with players remaining in the game.

If any players create proboards for private communication or interesting conversations including more than two players, please send links for them to the host and add him as an admin.

Please include the host on all game PM's.

Kill the pesky heroes and you're in, we swear!

Hrmm, I'm either very bad at math. (Henchman school wasn't properly funded..) or I'd say people are trying to set up a tie vote.

What happens in the event of a tie, oh baddest of stallions?

It's bad
Bad times
Bad times
They're bad

If you try to tie things
with your given vote.
You'll also be dying.
I'll throw you from the boat!

    Do you like Felicia Day, Nathan Fillion, or Neil Patrick Harris? How about Joss Whedon? Musicals? Superhero parodies? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog is for you.

    Not grounds for immediate death, as opposed to questioning the quality of Doctor Horrible.

    It's not even a grounds for a wrist-slap, just minor public shaming. You clearly quoted from memory! +2 awesomeness! Small flub, though. -1. Grand total: +1, still awesome.

    Most of that is dependent on the cast, and how crazy they choose to be.
    On my end, it's a pretty basic mafia game. I have made a few changes I think should keep things interesting. We shall see if that holds true!

    The idea that your vote is a moral statement about you or who you vote for is some backwards ass libertarian nonsense. Your vote is about society. Vote to protect the vulnerable.
