PHALLA TED : The Attack of Rugged Island
"Would you like some tea, father?"
Mrs Doyle had made tea again.
"No thank you Mrs Doyle, I'm quite full" said Father Ted
"Oh, go on"
"No, Mrs Doyle"
"Go on"
"NO!" Mrs Doyle
"But I made it specially"
"Mrs Doyle, really, no thank you"
"Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on"
"Listen to me you mad old bat and watch my lips, I don't want any bloody tea"
"Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on"
"Alright FINE I'll have some tea"
"I don't think you meant that, father - I'm sure someone else would like some tea"
And so it was a normal day on Craggy Island, Father Ted, Father Dougal and Father Jack were going about their normal business - the business of three ostracised, idiotic and drunk (respectively) Catholic priests on the remote 'Craggy Island' in the middle of the sea, just off the West Coast of Ireland. Their faithful Tea-Lady Mrs Doyle was, for the 18th time this morning, trying to make Ted drink tea.
But none of them knew that a storm was brewing - on the next Island over - 'Rugged Island', Father Dick Byrne and his sidekicks were planning an incursion. They wanted Craggy Island for themselves, and they were willing to go to ANY means, to secure it.
Ted, Dougal, Jack and Mrs Doyle were about to be in serious danger.
Will the Craggy Islanders survive to preach the gospel to the goats, or will the Rugged Islanders emerge victorious?

This is a
MiniPhalla. It's sort of like a
Phalla only on a smaller scale.
For those of you unaware of the source material, it's based on the AWESOME Irish comedy 'Father Ted' - for a decent summary, head to the wiki page HERE - where you'll also find a brief, but helpful, breakdown on some of the makor, and recurring, characters that will appear in this phalla.
All of the standard rules apply. In particular, screen captures cannot be used to "prove" anything and if you're talking with someone and they don't know it's you (your PA name), that's anonymous contact and is against these rules. Dead players may talk amongst themselves if they wish but living players may not communicate with the dead.
Each night, all players will vote for the Regular who should be barred. Please make your votes in
Bold Red. Retractions
would really be helpful, but aren't obligatory, and should be made in
Bold Lime. If you have any questions, please PM Micro (me) or post for clarification in the thread in
Bold Orange. Also, you cannot directly quote or forward any PM you receive from me during the game (unless I give you permission) but you can do
whatever you want with any PM you receive from another player.
Please remember to forward the location of any ProBoards (or similar tools) to me. Thank you.
I'm an idiot and live in the UK - so days will begin and end slightly earlier than you lot are perhaps used to.
This game will start (if we get signups in time) on
Tuesday, January 13th, meaning Day 1 will end on Wednesday 14th.
Voting will close daily at Midnight, GMT (which I believe is EST +5).
Interested players should
!SIGN UP in any colour - I just chose red because it's pretty. Roles will be randomly assigned.

No you didn't - you did exactly what it was designed to do!
You just did it in a particularly cut-throat way, which I secretly enjoyed.
Thanks for signing up

(And to think, I was just about to give up my grudge on Darian, when along comes another phalla hosted by Micro with Darian in it. )

Bauer can't live too long right.
Let's hope you don't get one of the super-must-be-betrayed-by-Darian-roles I've got designed, then.
That would actually be quite awesome to receive a role along those lines, where I would only win if I could get Darian to betray me again. Hehe. And I'm just messing with you Micro, I've had a blast in each of your phallas I've been in.

Will see if I can make sure you're not betrayed in this one, ooh, I've got an idea.
EVERYONE - abotkin is a BADDIE*
Right, now you can't trust anyone, so no one will be able to betray you
*For the simple minded out there, roles have not yet been assigned and this was a JOKE

This cow is very small, while this cow is faaaar away.
And it's actually only now that you pointed it out that I realized in both of your phallas that I've participated in (I think those were the only ones of yours that I've been in, can't remember for sure though) that I was setup for an epic backstab. Good times.

Only done two phallas thus far - this will be my third.
Gonne do one mini a month, I figure.
From the Desk of Darth Vertroue Diplomat to the USA.
I need at least one phalla lest I go into withdrawals.
Should have a bit of a laugh with this one. Feck. Arse.
I've got season 1 on VHS.
The time zone shenanigans will make this a little difficult, but still manageable.
I'm counting on time zone shenanigans.
The last couple have gone just about okay without crazy time-based shenanigans - and also, because people are awake for a few hours after vote close, it always seemed to encourage a bit more discussion of what happened in the votes, vigs, etc - so hoepfully everyone will have fun!
