This spam is killing my mafia mojo....getting out of hand.

To come in the morning to start the game and there is ten pages of rubbish that you need to wade through is really depressing.

I agree - it's getting very bad these days - was a whole discussion on it in I think the SH of 39.5 or 38 or something... JA's also getting depressed by it.

Cheers,

Tapper

perhaps a find on emurlahn, who seems fairly annoying?

This I wouldn't mind, although I'm wondering if a Company/Alien guy would be so pain in the ass so early.

I would NK him better

we could find on driss then and nk emurlahn?

i put a not so subtle reference to the cowboys in one post, will through in texas somewhere as well. lets put in our day find on driss?? or fener maybe (hes a douche too)?

I agree, let's do that investigation, I'm bored.

I confirm any of the following: Hood's Path, Serc, D'riss, Fener, Emurlahn or Omtose, I let dibs decide


Actually, HP intrigues me. I don't want him dead unless he's an Alien because he's disruptive. But he ain't a n00b for sure, and I'm sure he doesn't have to do what he's doing, so maybe he's WIFOMing that no way people would assume a scum would start the game so annoying.

So, what's it going to be, gents?

Its coming to the point where i would rather just not sign up.

Nothing wrong with a little spam, but when it becomes a competition on who can spam the most then it gets ridiculous.
Last few games I've Lost interest in building cases as it became near impossible. Unless you dont have a life that is...


anyway...lets see how this one progresses. Maybe ill make it my mission this game to get all the spammers lynched ASAP.

muhahahaa

Also - and this may or may not influence the game, but we want it cleared up:

Omtose declaring yesterday that he didn't make a certain post coming from the Omtose alt (the comment on the linguistical skills of someone else) was not devious cunning of some kind or another, but a player genuinely concerned that someone other than him posted that from the Omtose alt.

He did ask the mods to look into it at well, which we are still doing.

End of message, game on.

odd, perhaps a mixup with the alts? has everyone confirmed they received the alts correctly?



SORRY COULDNT HELP MYSELF

Hehehehehe. Bastard
If it was that easy, we'd have found the why and how for that mix-up right now

- Tapper

weird as this may sound my browser when usingv is sometimes uses old caches and needs refreshed, perhaps the last person in that alt suffers a similar condition. now before you think passwords change, sometimes inorder to view the thread as kaschan i have to log out an it lets me in. the board is weird, and made worse with ie.

I have the same thing every now and then, too - store changed password with Mozilla, then it forgets it straight away. Chrome has the same issue every now and then - I don't use IE.

Still, one would expect the person who did post that message as Omtose when he no longer was Omtose to either report it, delete it, or spam moar.

Yes, but which one?

Does that mean we get Company and Marines in the same bag?

And would have inno-robots come out as such?

Dammit, I was hoping for a name

humans = humans and they may or may not include cyborgs as well (will get back to you once Venge determines how accurate your find is).

Sniffing out factions is not a possibility for you as far as I know, sorry, so everything looking human is going to come up as human unless Venge overrules me - but given that you don't exactly need to kill the humans to win, I think you're not supposed to know.

Will post it as a question for Venge to answer.

when was my last day 1 lynch? i am getting juicy roles all of a sudden though, even by mistake!

now that you say so, yeah, it's been a while. * makes a note *
As for roles - we've had role heavy games, but Veteran, master ninja & pred is indeed a lucky streak.

Other question: if a player gets infected/explodes into an Alien the same night we investigate him (I assume this happens at night), which result do we get? "infection" is not in your ordered list in the opening post.

your assumption on timing may or may not be wrong.

I'd say (as that makes the most sense from a mechanics perspective) that you'd get human - but venge hasn't posted an order of what happens when yet and finder/killer combo's are new to Aliens... will add it to the question on result.

Damn JA, have you decided to make my day difficult?

[Path-Shaper]

more dibs, also on the find. He wants to see infected, too.

i think we should be able to see infected or android,. androids have no heat signature, and infected have two

well, I'm also going by what I remember another finder was told. I put the question through to Venge, if he wants to change/add, he'll get back to you with updated results, and he'll be around before night time, so before you take your next action.

I doubt he's going to grant you to see infected, however. I'd personally consider that a big no-no.

CC to Rashan/JA so you both know what my answer/stance/course of action is

[Path-Shaper]

JA, determined to make my day a living hell.

Aah fuck. I figured with how strong our roles are we're separate from the town. This would be hilarious if I wasnt about to get lynched. Maybe I should do something crazy like claim town. Shit, I hope obdi gets on soon, I need some advice.

Aye, bit of a fuck up, you'd better consider how you're going to spin this - but there's more than 12 hours left in the day, so you have time.

Call me a pessimist and you may not want to hear this, but I'll start to write a scene

[Path-Shaper]

Shadow's lynch scene:

Someone is making a righteous ruckus close to you. The edges of the transport pod block your sight, but you can hear someone pacing, each turn punctuated by the kick of a boot against the shuttle.

“How did we end up in this fucking shit, we should have left these fucking colonists to their fate, but nooooo, send the marines. And here we fucking are, unable to do a fucking thing, and now our ride back is fucking broken down too! Fuck!”

“That’s mutiny,” someone whispers close to you. “Don’t know who it is, but the sergeant should sort the fucker out.”

“Great, just what we need – another fucking mental idiot just after Hudson went gaga,” another marine adds.

“You know what? Let’s not wait for the sergeant. If we don’t shut him up good, morale will be even lower, and what will the civilians think of us?” Drake adds, looking over his shoulder to the spot where Newt, Ripley and Dillon sit around a fire. “Who’s with me?”

You mutter your consent, get up, cracking your knuckles.

Silently, the group of you sneak around the shuttle, then jump the pacing marine. Who straight-arms Drake away, knocking him out cold. Damn, the fucker is strong. Inhumanly so, even. You panic, and you are not the only one.

“Alien, alien!” someone screams.

All hell breaks loose.

What was supposed to be a quick jump, a few whispered threats and a cuff on the chin turns into the worst kind of struggle, and knives are pulled as others too realize that this guy is something else, and far faster and stronger than the average marine. You’re not sure what it is, but it is a threat. Threats must be removed.

Combat training takes over, and all that’s left now is to make the kill, or die trying. Disengagement seems impossible. All of a sudden, it becomes a bloodbath, until a bulky form is all that remains, face down in the earth.

Other marines come running towards you, alarmed by the fighting sounds. Sergeant Alpone quickly takes care of the situation, ordering the men back to their posts, before turning over the body.

“What the fuck?” he screams.

Shadow’s face, left eye pierced by a combat knife, horribly mutilated throughout the fight , somehow seems to look straight at you. As you avert your face, you realize that whatever is out there has just achieved a big advantage, as you’ve just lost one of the best fighters your squad had.

Shadow is dead, he was a marine.

the scene works better if we reveal Shadow was Hicks, but... I can see how we may not want to do that.
Best decide who we give the back up powers, though... to the sergeant?

My first thought was to claim the cat, just for the lulz. Think I have a spin, since I gather the no reveal rule will stay in place for a while. Man, I honest to God thought that the marines and innos are two separate factions.

Yeah, I thought what the fuck when you posted that, but well... at the least you'll get a cool scene

best of luck,

I think he closed the computer, opened the window and yelled "F-!" until the birds flew away

If I hadnt been in a room full of people this may just have happened.

Heh. this is a really, really tough game to play, and I can imagine your confusion. First thing I did last time (I was Hicks) was search for the wiki so that I had a basic understanding of what was going on setting wise.... as I hadn't seen the movies.

You have my sympathy - everyone is jumping on you like sharks in a frenzy.

[Giles]

One question does everyone know that reveals arent allowed but Fake reveals are ok? because if thats true there really is no point in even trying to reveal as everyone knows its fake

[Path-Shaper]

Shadow, not realizing he will make himself more of a target through it - non-marines are few and far between.

Meh, first uber role I get and I fuck it up majestically. Feel bad for letting Obdi down more than anything else. So I'm gonna claim colonist and act AMAZINGLY confused about absolutely everything that's going on. That bit wont be hard. Cant claim anything resembling a real role, since I'l receive about a million NKs, which sucks cos I do actually have a good role. sigh.
