For the record I'm also planning a time-travel Phalla, which I'm planning on running as a mini first to make sure the mechanics work. I posted the details in the last signup thread here... how close is that to what you were thinking of Hb?

Smasher if you do time travel it will be amazing
if you do it better then me I will be sad and love it at the same time
My imaginary phalla is pretty much mostly still in my head, but I've got a couple of things on paper and I think I might go ahead and !sign up. Besides, even though I've some odd ideas it'll probably end up being pretty traditional.
The theme is Penny-Arcade, because I think it's bizzare that hasn't been done yet. It probably has been and I missed it.
Last I asked MrBlarney, he's just been busy, so it's on the backburner.
Pretty much. I was busy with helping out visiblehowl with Night Watch that I didn't have any time to think about AL-PHA-LLA. I'm still divided on how I want to structure the game, whether it be traditional, factional, multi-layered, and how complex it should be. In the best case scenario, I can have it ready once Awards Show begins to wind down and run everything by Thanatos again, just to make sure.
So the short of it is, I'm still thinking about it, and it'll get run sooner or later. Hopefully not too much later.
Well, in storytelling the rule of thumb goes something like this: if the setting is fantastic, keep the story simple; if the story is extraordinary, make the setting mundane.
I think that applies here as well. The idea of a GM alt phalla is awesome enough. The game mechanics shouldn't be too fancy.

haha, another Two-sided game. I didn't think about that.
Very well Mac, you get your two months. For now.
I tend to notice those don't work out so well, though, especially if they're double-blind. Lawinator's wasn't that bad, but it seemed to just do what the other ones did, where one team just got a good lead in early on and it turned into a gradual defeat for the other team.
This kind of thing is not great, and can be avoided. I just don't know how yet.

We can team up again, if you'd like.
You're wanting a more horror-esque feel this time?
It would be awesome, but I want to give you a chance to play if you want. I love your writing.
Here is a day 0 sample I wrote.
The officer walked under the police tape the roped off the front door way to the old farm house. Dispatch warned him that it wasn't a pretty crime scene He wasn't worried about what he would see. He's seen plenty of vile deaths in his time.
We wasn't ready the sight the lay before him.
There was blood and pieces of human tossed all over the room. I the middle of the floor was what was left of Mr. Johnson. Hes chest had been ripped open, he was missing most of his internal organs, and his skull looked like it was ripped apart.
At first sight it looked like a wild animal attack, execpt there were no animal prints inside or around the house. There was palm prints in a few of the pools of blood near our poor victim. The worse part was you could see teeth marks on his bones and what was left of his flesh.
They were human teeth marks.

Man I was just about to go to sleep but I had a great idea for a Phalla.
It would be best run in G&T though so it'll probably never come to be.
System Warz:Sega VS. Nintendo.
Sega would probably be the villians in the whole affair, blast processing and doing what Nintendon't, but it could be easily run with neither faction being evil and trying to kill the fanboys.
The secret faction of one would be the TG-16 of course, with only one member, Johnny Turbo.
:P

There's no rule that says a Phalla couldn't be run again in G&T, to my knowledge... I think you'd just have to go through their mods for the idea.
It sounds awesome.
Nintendo are totally the evil ones

hey thorbutt, you missed my signup after precisionk, should be listed as #53, unless it wasn't counted because i'm already on the list.
I was under the impression that you could not sign up for more than 1 game on the list at a time due to the amount of people signed up and willing to host a game. It's gotta be fair for everyone including those who have not run a game before.
You could always move your game down the list though I'd imagine.

If the list is correct, neville will begin sign ups on the 22nd.
The awards do not count as a mini.

I wanted to run a mini after LOTR, but if you are going to do a My Little Phalla and it's not a joke - take my spot.
What, what, why, what, why? We got mod approval and all.
oh right, I just got confused.

There has been a recent surge in 2 sided "faction games" and I don't want another one running so soon after like 3 others.
Also, MK isn't done and it will give me some time to fine tune everything and make the game even better.
My balls say FUCK YOU! You did kick them.
And I'm so waiting for this game.

I am trying to forge a working version of the faction game. That's why it is taking so long for me to balance.

Aroduc says he asked CaptainK and Accault (?), so PMing them would be your best bet.

Other than me telling you that my phalla coming up in a couple weeks will most likely be clockwork/steampunk robots and cthulhu.
I see you're still listed as Phalla Sandiego.
Guess you're stuck.
Shame, that.
but I have been struck by some divine inspiration and please add me to the list for a Babylon 5 Phalla
