    I'd love to hear that theoretical backtrack, and didn't the mission seer give all the mission results?
    Yup! Which was perfect, because if we didn't use our vig, it wouldn't cone back with us as ambushing.

    Bam. Infiltrated network.

    I was actually up front with Smoove on the missions I ran, that's why I'd love to know why I was seered. It'll tell me where (if anywhere) I screwed up.
    Uh....I still don't see how that would give you an in to the network? Even if it would say that you didn't ambush that day, you'd still be a random villager, which isn't exactly confirmed?

    MrT got invited due to no Ambush on his seer :)

    Dangerous move, that.

    The Sandman phalla was lost partially because Nirya interpreted "Used no power" as "village", when it was not the case.

    More importantly there was an ambush kill the night MrT got seer, jdarksun was talking about not using there kill to try and infiltrate-if I followed that right.

    Things have been busy, so I have forgotten to give my kudos to Akimbo for this awesome idea.

    I feel like this was pretty much custom made for me, so I was a little sad that I never actually ended up getting an ability! But them's the breaks. Thanks for running! I had more fun crunching the numbers than I hadany right to.

    @SaberOverEasy sorry for killing you in this one! You are sneaky, and I can't have you on the opposite side. :P

    It's all good TRV. I was actually a little flattered that the mafia thought I was enough of a threat to day 1. Though not flattered enough NOT to give you a grudge vote next time around :)

    Akimbo, thanks for running this. I had a ton of fun playing around with the spreadsheets, even after I died.

    So I had altered Akimbo's spreadsheet to show conditional bars, making it very very easy to find the "best" equipment to buy to maximize stats. There were some peices that were just junk. Without that kind of knowledge, it would be very hard to build a competitive mech. I can't imagine the work that went into this on Akimbo's end.

    So disappointed I had to withdraw.

    JdArk suggested the same. I would love to, but I'll have to learn some code to do it, and I'm not sure I'll be doing that anytime soon

    I tried to make sure every piece was relevant versus the other pieces of its level. Some had lower composites, but that was usually balanced by low energy or weight or sometimes cost. Which pieces were bad?

    I really enjoy mech building and going for mission, more than mafia part.
    Maybe next game you run can be some kind of area control game. Players fight for their sponsor corps to gain dominance over the City or something.

    Given the parts balance, I'm not sure if a straight faction game would work, but maybe factions with mafia...

    Allright, sorry I was absent most of the day yesterday. When I realized what I had gotten myself into trying to coordinate the village in this game, AND I looked at my calendar and had 2 filing deadlines on Friday, I was pretty sure we were all boned.

    My RAVEN:
    RO-H-1A
    RO-C-1
    EQ-L-1
    RO-A-MGUN-P
    EQ-S-RAIL
    11 / 8 / 18 / 18
    ...is actually pretty terrible. I was successful day 1, then failed, the forgot to put in orders for myself after trying to keep up with assignments for everyone else, then I got roleblocked. But at least I spent my last few credits on a dreamcatcher, shag carpeting for the cockpit, a mug, and a bitchin' flames/lightning paintjob on the last day. Hellz yeah.

    Between Sega and I we got really lucky on the first 2 seers (Kaplar and Jdarksun). @jdarksun you'll have to ask Sega why you were seered. He didn't contact me until after he had decided to seer you. I will say that for whatever reason(s), you were on several peoples radars that I was talking to.

    Thanks, village network for taking over for me yesterday whilst I was super busy.

    Thanks Akimbo for running a freakin' awesome phalla. Truth be told, my forum handle comes for a RAVEN name I used in AC2.

    Any other questions I can answer, feel free to ask.

    Don't know if its been linked yet, but there was 1 day of network proboards:

    You could just run it as a play by post. Faction game with limited if any player elimination. Maybe a seven day time limit with the winner being the team that can control the most corporations.

    You aint gotta code, just do what youve been doing for this game.

    I'll play around with some stuff to see what I can pull off. Of course, I was barely able to get the 25 for a phalla, I think it might be a bit harder to get a decent number of people for a non-phalla :)

    For the sake of posting it, I decided to count up what I was using in the end:

    IU-H-1A
    IU-C-2A
    IU-L-2A
    IU-A-ESH-P
    GA-S-SLUG

    Payload 16
    Shielding 45
    Radar 12
    Mobility 27
    Composite Score 100
    Weight 25/30
    Energy 44/50

    I also had this shoulder:

    IU-S-ESH-P: Enhanced Shielding Prototype
    0 Payload
    15 Shielding
    0 Radar
    1 Mobility
    4 Weight
    13 Energy Use

    ...but the shielding would have been severe overkill and my energy use was crazy high as it was. I liked my shiny IU mech! ^_^
