    *yawn*

    Kinda want to just finish up and move on to the next game. Almost not worth it when we have so many people that just aren't playing.

    Many thanks to Phobos for the patience and pro-activeness.

    I forgot I had to, I assumed that by putting forth the plan I automatically accepted it.

    That doesn't make any sense when I type it out. Stupid brain.

    This vote came in pretty quick actually, I just like to send out the Shame Reminders once I'm at 7 or 8 people having submitted.

    Anyway...RESULTS TIME OH MAN ARE YOU EXCITED? I AM EXCITED.

    Kaneski votes NAY.
    Kirindal votes NAY.
    Rhan9 votes NAY.
    Sokpuppet, Megamek, Davoid, Hedgethorn, Phyphor, Jdarksun and Mikey CTS all vote AYE.

    7 to 3, mission passes.

    Oh, and I just wrote "A" and "R" and my handwriting is such that they actually look kind of similar, so if I got someone wrong, just shout out.

    @jdarksun, @Rhan9, @Phyphor, @Hedgethorn, @Megamek for their mission success cards.

    This is quest #4, which requires two failures, rather than one.

  • jdarksunjdarksun Scion of Chaos Registered User regular
    Rhan voted NAY. Well, I guess that clears that up.

    I think Phyphor knows something.

    I vote Sokpuppet for Broberon.

    Actually, if you haven't submitted, don't bother...because TWO FAILURES have appeared.

    The Minions of Mordred have prevailed. Evil Has Won.

    You may now commence dramatic revelations, triumphant declarations and bitter recriminations!

    I enjoyed running this and would be willing to do another.

    Oh! For extra Pride points, the Assassin may step forward and make their guess as to Merlin's identity. If correct, you will get the following prize:

    On that subject, I like a house rule, especially for games with just five players, that say the Assassin has to pick out Merlin on their own - that is, they can't discuss with the other Minion of Mordred. Otherwise it seems like you'd have a 1-in-3 chance of hail mary winning just from plain guessing, and I worry that would too frequently rob Good of a well earned victory.

    Doesn't work for larger player counts, or at least isn't as interesting.

    Hedge is Morgana based on his assumption that I was Mordred
    Dav is Mordred
    Kaneski is only merlin if he was really trying to hide it
    jdarksun can't be merlin (chose assassin & morgana and voted to approve)
    sok was suggesting me


    It should not be possible for merlin to approve that last mission since it was morgana & the assassin, so it has to be one of rhan, kaneski & kirindal.

    Kirindal approved my inclusion in q3 vote 2, so I will guess that Merlin is Rhan9

    I suspect Kaneski is Percival? In round 2, he stuck me and Rhan on a team to figure out who he should trust.

    I still have no clue who Broberon is now.

  • Professor PhobosProfessor Phobos Registered User regular
    Our cast of characters...

    Megamek, Jdarksun, Mikey CTS and Sokpuppet were Loyal Servants of Arthur.

    Rhan9 was Merlin.

    Kaneski was Percival.

    Phyphor, as you all know, was the Assassin

    Davoid was Morded. Captain Hedgethorn was Morgana. Finally, Kirindal was Broberon.

  • PhyphorPhyphor Building Planet Busters Tasting FruitRegistered User regular
    Confused statement: That doesnt make any sense. If percival includes both of his pings then he knows the mission will fail. He would only include one

    and he was just avoiding suspicion the whole game?

    Some Notes:

    Generally I intentionally maintained my ignorance, so I could watch. But I was prompted to check on identities when I noticed sokpuppet and kaneski just going at it like a couple in the middle of a nasty divorce. And oh, oh how I laughed. There was some great manipulating done by Team Evil, I must also say. Phyphor should be proud - all that Cylon training, I suspect.

    I pegged you purely on voting record and intuition.
    Though clearly not that much intuition because I got the important things wrong.

    Okay, for the follow-up, there are some options. We could try One Night Werewolf instead of Avalon, or perhaps Love Letter. Or Avalon II: Electric Boogaloo.

    How did my voting record give me away? I have to admit given this was my first game that I had no idea what I was doing except trying not get called out by Merlin. I would like to learn from my mistakes.

    Pegged Phyphor only after Rhan voiced concerns, but had to try and cover it. Didn't see Kirindal as Bro, actually thought Mega was more likely. Totally knew Davoid was Mordred though. Hedge as Morgana. Special knowledge on Hedge, but pure logic on Davoid, woo!

    Anyway... Bro instead of Ob made this virtually impossible for bad guys to win. Also... I really expected 1000+ posts across the game. Guess it doesn't work as well as I thought.

    Sokpuppet
  • KaneskiKaneski Registered User regular
    @Kirindal I think the answer is - with 3.1, they thought they had a clean team, so you voting against made you suspect. If it's something else - I can't peg it.
