Having daykills that are available on day 1 doesn't seem like very good game design to me... considering that it means someone can potentially not even have a chance to play the game before they're dead.

FaoT receives a daykill each day he is voted for. Otherwise, there would not have been a kill. Although granted I should probably have a 'no D1 kills' rule in future games.

Sorry DBC, one of my scum buddys suggested you'd be a good target and I figured as my fun got ruined immediately, I may as well ruin someone elses as well. For watchers at home, there is no cosmic cube, I think it will become apparent tomorrow to town =(. As it turns out the psiconic bolt was the best choice of three I had to go for, as through no fault of my own I wouldn't have been able to get further than tonight so the other two abilities would have been useless.

Avengers:
Spoiler:
For the record, "Science Programming" was a one-shot ability that would either NK the target and take their secondary powers as my own, or recruit the target if they were AI-based and give me a charge of the ability back. I was totally recruiting FAOT if they didn't get lynched today, ideally having them spill the beans about the scumteam as well. I also had a day rolecop (I could use it or Science Programming as an either/or each day/night cycle, not both), which I was going to use on Adam H if FAOT looked like the lynch was going to go through.

My plan was basically to lie low for the first two/three days as I searched for AI targets with my rolecop, get two or three in my faction, then pounce on someone with the NK/absorb as the herds were thinned. But, well, so much for that plan :P

EDIT: I liked the little death comic. *URK*

Avengers/Werewolf:
Spoiler:
I do appreciate that scum seems to view me as a powerful enough threat to justify me as a N1 kill/D1 daykill, and guess I should take that as a compliment. At the same time, though, I'd kind of like to actually play the game :P I am curious what's drawing the kills, though - do I just post too many :words:, or did I somehow build up a reputation in the months I wasn't playing, or was I super-easy to read as not-precisely-town-and-therefore-threatening-to-scum in both, or what? :itisamystery:

And to be clear, I'm not upset with FAOT for killing me or anything like that, I'm just curious as to what prompted the choice and somewhat frustrated at the turn of events that leaves me gameless again this soon. Doesn't mean anyone should have acted differently, just frustrating.

Won't be joining anymore games for the next month, and focusing efforts on creating one instead. Here's a few themes I have in mind, so what would people like to see?

- Portal 2
- A Game of Thrones
- Skyrim
- Arkham City

I promise that none of them will be even close to vanilla :wink: .

I have a Batman themed mafia in the works as well, alongside:

- Endor's Game
- Legend of Zelda (OOC for a regular game, MM for a time-travel game! Although Time Travel is finicky...)

With FallOut over, and TMG saying he can't start for a month, there is a hole in the small games section right now. If someone else wants to grab it go for it, but if no one does I'll just run another small.

If there was a Game of Thrones mafia - I would not play it for fear of spoilers.

Portal, however? I'm there.
The death of Lady Diana was also predicted by Moby Dick.

that's hammer, and as the rules dictate - that ends the day. No-one else should post until the mod says so.
What have we done?!?! So exciting. Can't wait to figure out what the crap roband is up to. Also: I got an invitation to join the Dark Avengers. In the middle of the day. Pretty odd.

How the heck did Eculc get the hammer, I'm not sure if he intended to or not, but the extra secret vote is kind of scary. I wonder if it has to do with the early daykill, like if someone uses it they get an extra secret vote or something, it could also have to with Loki...darn, this is getting very confusing. Still a fun first game.
