    1st Venus lovers - CJ Iwakura and Funkywaltdogg
    To: Funkywaltdogg
    Subject – Young Love
    As you crossed the street, something caught your eye. Looking at CJ Iwakura, you felt overwhelmed with lust, and he seemed to feel the same way. Sprinting to the nearest motel, you lose yourself to the moment, afterwards telling each other everything about one another. In the morning you find him gone and can’t understand what came over you.

    As you crossed the street, something caught your eye. Looking at FunkyWaltDogg, you felt overwhelmed with lust, and he seemed to feel the same way. Sprinting to the nearest motel, you lose yourself to the moment, afterwards telling each other everything about one another. In the morning you realize what you’ve done and sprint from the room, hoping against hope that he forgets what he knows.
    Funkywaltdogg admits to you that he is Der Welp
    You have announced your role to Funkywaltdogg
    The chill you feel the next day when you find out he is dead is compounded by the missing Freeze gun, with a note saying “IOU: one freeze gun! Maybe next month!”
    You may not use your freeze technology this turn.

    2nd Venus lovers - Tuxkamen and GrimmyTOA
    Tuxkamen
    Love is in the air
    As you talk to GrimmyTOA over your special videocom you can’t help but suddenly feel yourself lost in his eyes. His sly grin shows he seems to be feeling the same way. You are soon laying it to that German hunk in his cavernous CaveKennel. When you wake up in the morning you are chagrinned, and return to base hoping he will not bring it up at the next super hero meeting.
    You have revealed your role to GrimmyTOA
    GrimmyTOA has revealed that he is Der Hund

    GrimmyTOA
    Love is in the air
    As you cruise through the city in your Hundsmannwagen you receive a call from Tuxkamen. Maybe it is the way his nose twitches after he says something serious, but you find yourself falling for him. It seems he feels the same way, as he soon meets you in your CaveKennel, where you rut like…dogs in heat. When you wake up in the morning he has left, ashamed. You can’t explain what came over you.
    You have revealed your role to Tuxkamen
    Tuxkamen has revealed that he is a B.L.A.S.T. agent

    3rd Venus lovers - Locus and Threelemmings
    Locus
    Hot stuff
    God, that guy across the street is just so dashing. He likes you too! He walked right up to you and started kissing you! You’re back to his floating apartment hovering above the city in minutes. In the heat of passion you tell each other everything. Then the next day he sheepishly lets you out and tells you not to call. What came over you?

    My only problem with the set up, PsychoLarry, was that the 6 cannon fodder characters all had the chance to be ultra useful. The 3 cannon fodder - blast members were an insta network. We saw how powerful that alone was. The remaining three cannon fodder, by chance, yes, but quite likely none the less, saw tremendous usage (except Der Welp).

    So later in the game we kind of realized how outnumbered we were. All the people we were killing were still using their powers. Great game, but still I feel it was a tiny bit unbalanced.
    Eh, Ardor and I both decided that with the number of unique abilities and rules in play proper balance would require way more math then either of us were capable. I had hoped that the seer, the kill dodging, the freezing, and the extra Confederacy ability would balance out against the hero's numbers and their guardian abilities. In retrospect giving you guys another villain would probably have been a good idea, but as you saw, the game lasted a long time anyway, and could have lasted longer. If Inquisitor had voted for Squashua and the UD hadn't knocked out his protection it's be him and Omni-Corp vs. a guardian and a seer, with more votes then the village could muster.

    During the debate Rygar tried to get me to help him vote off GrimmyTOA. He made it sound like he was in some sort of group. After our network was formed day 1, we decided to boxx Rygar instead. GrimmyTOA(our seer) got awfully close to being boxxed day 1 =/

    Funkywaltdogg his sidekick was the only one in the network day 1 just in case there was a leak.

    Was a lot of fun working with you on the final few days before your death and you did an awesome service to your city.

    I would like to point out that while you Villains didn't get as many of us as you may have liked to, you *DID* kill off every single one of our seerings. The only one you didn't kill off was Locus, who was actually a Venus seering (and one of the very last days).

    Gale Force being MIA really fucked us over, thanks Thorpe. We finally found Gale Force right after we could have used him... although his protections did come in handy.

    We had the UD the whole time, using it only twice. The last night it won us the game, although I think we would have won if Threelemmings had voted for Jdarksun.

    What really convinced me that Jdark was Gabriel was that he asked to be speaker so he would be a target for the villains.. this way he said he would get a retaliatory attack. Once I learned that Gabriel absorbs the first attack on him any turn (cool as hell, by the way) I knew this was Jdark's goal.

    Awesome, awesome game.

    Bah, you realize that means my power was not useful ONCE the entire game. The boxx ignored it and then you UD it off of me this time. Such is life.

    Role PM:
    ManMountain – They used to call you fat. Or Fatty fat fat. Or lardo. Or Beefy Chunksauce Mcfat. But that was before the horrible experiment where your genes were spliced with granite…somehow. You don’t question it, it’s science. Now you have skin as hard as rock, and your already impressive weight has quintupled. Time to show everyone just how fat you really are!

    You work with Cold Front (CJIwakura) and Professor Death Science! (Anaximander) to further the cause of evil! Your group has one kill per night. Your rocky exterior also makes you immune to the attacks of any heroes using a vigilante power. You are not immune to death by vote.
    Additionally, if you can get into contact with the rest of the villains, the Confederacy of Evil will be formed and the villains will gain an additional power for the remainder of the game. PM me the names of all of the villains (at least 5 must be living) to verify it and get your list of choices.

    Gotta tell you Inquisitor, I really didn't want you to die. That Grundl didn't know you couldn't be killed by vigilante would have been a great way to keep the game going. But I didn't want to fuck with the numbers for my own enjoyment, and when I RNG'd for the UD's power it came up 1, 2, 1, 2. I had to go with #1 which was to break your protection. It's the same reason all heroes were protected, and why Gnasty and Last Son came back from the dead and everyone came back from prison: I wasn't willing to mess with the numbers for a more pleasing result.

    I did though end resurrections after turn 6 because the game would have never ended.

    Yep, Venus was awesome.

    I was The Thunder. I really was wondering how long it would take for people to get around to vigging me since I was RPing ADD. Oddly enough I didn't die until after I mentioned that JD was a neutral, but it didn't get any mention on the villain boards so I guess they weren't paying attention. In fact from viewing what little I have of the boards it looks like other than a "seems more heroey than Grimmy" I wasn't hardly pegged at all in either board.

    As to balance, honestly the villains worst enemies this game were the neutrals. If the neutrals had been actively attacking the network it would have gone much worse for us and much better for the villains. Especially since the bad guys had only one dead weight special, R.O.B.B.O.T. (Seriously, after the first get together a seer isn't particularly useful for the bad guys, since you know everyone you don't want to kill and do want to kill pretty much everyone else, meaning you waste a turn seering them rather than jsut killing them and getting on with it.)
