    Did the phalla itself get saved? Or was it just the [chat] with Drez's rage that got saved?

    Linked in the fourth or so post in this thread (the PENDING NOMINATIONS spoiler). Sorry, closed the tab already.
    Man, that reminds me that Pretense hasn't played a phalla in a while.

    Because writing those narrations every night is hard, and writing consistently good, interesting and/or funny narrations is hard work that deserves to be recognized.

    It will be an award. Don't worry.

    I notice some people are confused by the process. Today, we are nominating things for this award. Tomorrow, we will vote on the nominations. Tomorrow, we will also nominate things for the next award.

    Alright guys, since my role is going to be easily deduced anyway:

    EPIC REVEAL BITCHES
    I AM TOGROHT, THORGOT'S EVIL ALTER EGO.

    WHILE THORGOT GETS TO OPEN UP ONE AWARD FOR NOMINATIONS EACH DAY, I GET TO INTRODUCE AN AWARD OF MY OWN, STARTING DAY 2. NOMINATIONS WILL BE IN PINK

    ALL AWARDS WILL BE PRESENTED TO ME IN THE NARRATIONS REGARDLESS OF WHO WINS

    ALSO EVERYONE MUST BOW DOWN BEFORE ME

    SO SPEAKS TOGROHT

    Current Nominations

    2 or more (Will be voted upon tomorrow)
    !nominate Psycholarry for leading his enemies to victory in Kingdoms of Phallacia. (This post is his explanation after the game ended.)

    !nominate Rend from the Monks on the Run mini. Rend decided to trust Hylianbunny blindly. Not only was Hylianbunny a Cultist, but he was a thrall as well. The kicker? Rend was the seer.

    Xevo for acting like a moron in PhalLOST.

    !Gumpy from the fresh-in-our-minds Phallastar Phallactica for helping the village turn crushing defeat into epic comeback victory. Supplemental links: Remember that Gumpy is a Cylon (baddie) and thus robotic construct and that two of his allies were on that ship that was gassed. Unrecorded are personal communications between Gumpy and myself and iamtheaznman cluing us in to the nature of the majority of Cylon attack mechanics.

    Visiblehowl for using his 2 vig kills to knock off 4 innocents to prove himself as a village aligned role, only to be used and abused by Precisionk which resulted in a huge, lopsided win for the bad guy team in Space Station 13.

    !LADY ERI


    James for giving up the identity of half of his evil team in PsychoLarry's WWI Phalla in an attempt to meet a secondary win condition.

    the village of Newham for voting for Richy after Shinto came out as a cultist.

    !Drez win that award? The guy got banned for a few weeks over a game. I'd try looking for the angry rants in [chat], but if it isn't in the chat-log then it is probably impossible to find.

    nominate the care-bears from Phallout. Those who did nothing when we got to the vault



    1 Nomination
    Also !nomination for the village in Monks on the Run, for bandwagoning the Jester role even after thorgot (who was co-hosting) came as close as possible to telling them that they were making a huge mistake

    Zot for his day 1 seer antics in Eternal Darkness.

    !Squashua for revealing himself as Dr. Venture even though all the baddies were networked.

    Kovak's reveal of every Company guy in the first Heroes phalla was pretty hilarious too, although the forced reboot was interesting to say the least.

    !The_Lightbringer for posting his role PM even though it was against the rules in the Transformers Phalla. I would even go so far as to say that his actions caused a domino effect that ultimately doomed the Autobots. Regardless, having all our roles revealed to the Decepticons didn't help us none.

    nominate CoreGoon for essentially leaking the identities of a number of good specials to the Cylons in the recently finished Phallastar Phallactica...and in one of the first days, too.

    !nominate Prince Rhaegar's hilarious MetsitluC river claim.

    Elendil nominates himself, for the end of Rishiri. When our last seer kicked the bucket, right after seering us, we decided to just say fuck it and go public. This actually succeeded, as I ended up being networked to a guardian as a result. The game looked like it was about to turn around, until we failed to root out the last monster. On the final day, I was the sole confirmed villager, and, lacking any real hunches, flipped a coin between DevoutlyApatheic and RainOPain to die to the vote. (It was Aroduc.)

    I nominate the entire !Transformers PHALLA for having the worst player networks ever leading to not just one dramatic turn around, but three.

    Edit: as far as my vote goes, it's going to be a tough call between WWI James and the Phallout carebears.

    I was thinking about that, but I won that game so Transformer Phalla was sweet. And at the start there was some good moves made. You should so vote for Phallout - WTF! we can win as a group.

    players - Naw, lets not.

    Zot needs an award named after him. The "vote for Zot for LOLZ" award. I like Zot but he got a bad rep in phallas. And as a newbie I knew that a Zot vote wouldn't get you killed. That is an epic day one bandwagon.

    I had been playing phallas for an entire year and I didn't get invited to play that one.

    Hell, people I had never seen play before got invited.

    It was done almost entirely through PMs and proboards, and people were 'recruited' at random through PMs by the GM's alt account.

    I still don't know entirely how it worked, but there were two factions killing at random, with no way of knowing who was in the game or not.

    The updates were posted at random in assorted threads.

    It was madness, and at the same time, awesome.


    Assorted roster from across all the boards, I think.

    Yeah, the Decepticons were doing great behind the scenes, most of it occured in my PM box. God that was a tedious game, but fun still. Getting caught between B:L and Squashua fire was fun let me tell you. D:
