    Old Snady Craig looks suspicious

    Or his name just looks like Shady.

    I think its a terrible strategy! Also being mafia kinda of sucked since we couldn't swap around.

    The big thing last game was that Segatai was the serial killer and he would have resurrected into a body if we didn't kill characters. Which I didn't know at the time (and don't know that it has returned, Im guessing plenty of things have changed) And a few days of faffing about over it drew the game out to day freaking 11 (unheard of for a mini!)

    Also mafia kills last game where based on charecters. We could kill two charecters a night or we could kill a named player (but only once)

    So reducing the number of charecters also makes it easier for the mafia to target us.

    (Im not assuming nothing has changed, but I remember much of the last game so if you want to question me about it I will answer honestly)

    Like all the stuff in my first post in this thread were things that literally happened.

    I doubt it'll get much traction, but better Sir Fab than me.

  • CythraulCythraul Registered User regular
    I can get down and funky on a SirFab push.

    I mean, as long as you're not mafia Aura.

    Are you?

    Nope.

    I was going to go quietly, but since ZH asked a pretty good question, here are the people voting for me ranked by the degree to which I have wronged them in a Phalla context:

    Egregiously, repeatedly, and recently: JPants
    Badly recently and occasionally in the past: GG
    (Significantly, but only in the past: ZH)
    Possibly slightly?: Preda
    Basically never, I even recommended a cool Nintendo 3DS game to him: Sir Fab

    Pretty much everyone should see that Sir Fab's vote looks a little weird, given that.

  • Sir FabulousSir Fabulous Malevolent Squid God Registered User regular
    I vote for who I please on day 1.

    I just picked your name because I didn't think there were all that many votes on you.

    But, I never change my vote day 1 without a really good reason, so the red text stays on you.

    I didn't play the previous body-switching Phalla being referenced, but mechanics-wise in this one, voting for players seems a lot more reliable than voting for characters, given the ability to jump out of a body before the vote hits. Even, possibly, jump to an unoccupied body, though that'd be a bit riskier than just going bodiless. It's also safer to target a player than a body, as we might be wiping out a body with a special ability, where as voting for a player, they can jump out before the valuable body is harmed.

    Also, because voting off a character would give us a chance of not hitting any player at all on day one, it seems like today is an especially bad choice for it.

    kime

    One thing I can't figure, would it be better to jump out of and leave a vanillager body intact, rather than letting it eat the vote along with the player?

    3 hours, 19 minutes? I believe.

    Speaking of believe, i want to believe Aura. But I always want to believe Aura. hmmmmm.

    Aw guys don't vote out Auralynx he's fun.

    Vote out kime instead, he's milked this whole "don't vote kime day 1" thing for way too long.

  • JPantsJPants Registered User regular
    I may be out of my mind from not enough sleep and too much stress today, but I've been (over) thinking about it and SirFab.

  • BedlamBedlam Registered User regular
    Sir Fab probably wronged me in some way at some point, maybe.

    He should possibly be punished for this.

    Day 1: First Contact

    Corey and Angela sat in the clearing overlooking the settlement. Though there were barely any lights on after dark the sky was a blurry haze. A layer of smoke and soot covers what would be a flawless view of the heavens.

    Though tonight they were in for a rare treat. A small section of sky was clear of the nuclear mist. Corey noticed it first, pointing.

    “Angela, do you see the clearing? You can see Ursa Major through the fog. It’s supposed to be a bear, it’s tail goes left, and you can see the legs down. Do you see it?”

    “I guess so. I’ve never looked at a constellation map.”

    “Take a look at the stars in the tail. Do you notice anything strange?”

    Angela looked for a few moments.

    “Well, one of them looks like there’s two stars there. Is it a double star?”

    “Very good! You just became an archer in the Roman army. Though in reality the stars are a few light years apart.”

    “What are you talking about?”

    “It just looks like it’s a double star. They just happen to align…”

    “No, I mean about the army.”

    “Oh, the Romans used to use it as a vision test. If you could see the double star you got to wield bows.”

    “Even after seventeen years, you continue to surprise me. Why do you know this stuff anyway? You can never see the stars.”

    “Maybe not, but I know exactly where they are. It’s been the same for millennia. I can imagine the screen above the haze, and on those precious instances when I can peek through, I know exactly what I’m looking at. But mainly, I guess, I use it to remind myself that human meddling only goes so far. We may have ruined this world, but there’s a realm outside of human influence. One that hasn’t blinked in our short existence. One that the Romans looked upon exactly as we do now. It gives me hope for the universe.”

    Angela leaned in to kiss him, and at that moment Corey felt a strange tingle on the back of his neck, and then Corey was no longer there. Instead, it was a slug. All of his memories, all sensation now belonged to Auralynx.

    Angela noticed something change. “What’s wrong, dear?”

    “Oh, nothing,” Corey replied. “I just had a shiver. I’m okay.” Corey stretched out, pressing his lips against Angela’s.

    He felt a warm, wet sensation in his mouth. Not at all what he was expecting. When he pulled back he saw streaks of red across Angela’s face and realized that the bubbling warmth was his own blood. Corey and Angela collapsed where they sat. Their attackers leaving unseen.

    Day 2 begins now. If you do not have a body, you may not talk in thread or via PM/proboards to any other player regarding this game.

    If you had a snatch order I should have responded to you whether it was successful or not. Please let me know if I missed a PM.
