Shadows

Darth Legois (see below) has the "who" answered pretty well. The roles of the current staff are pretty clear based on their actual rank and the posts they make, but you can also see this thread for more details (though it isn't up-to-date). So, are you doing a "my favourite website" report for school or something? That about covers it.

Since voting is by PM, it's whenever you want. Actually, it's always whenever you want in these games. In this one, it was stated that if one side finished voting earlier than expected, the other side would only have one day to finish up, so there could be some strategy in voting quickly and forcing the other side to do the same. Or not. It's hard to say how it will go.

I broke the site. Nah, not really. 54% evil. If you factor out the things that were once and wouldn't happen again, considerably less. Honestly, I don't see how anyone gets a score under 10% unless they're either 6 years old or have selective memory about some things they've done, even if only once. At 2% per checkmark, I find it hard to see anyone only checking 3 or 4 things. I wonder what the evil percentage is for lying on an evil aptitude test?

The old "people who didn't vote death lottery" where someone who doesn't vote is randomly drawn and shot on the spot. I like it, I do, but it's only fair if it's announced at the start of the day it's in effect for.

Then how would we make fun of your accent?

I stack 'em. Lots of 'em. Piles and piles of 'em. Seriously, I built a folding plate base that holds maybe 150. I don't do a lot of shifting them around and the way they're stored they don't bump each other. I can't imagine it being a problem. Certainly better than having them roll around a container scratching each other.

German, Russian, whatever. It's a terrible accent. Ivan would not be the amused, though something about the whole thing has made him just a little interested.

Me too. Hopefully we have some talented individuals who will be able to reveal enough useful information to keep that from happening. From what I've heard, Imperial Spies take sudden 5 day vacations in the middle of their assignments, so if we watch for that, we should be able to spot them quickly and deal with the bitches witches Baritones rats spies!

Those turned out pretty well, I'm impressed! I always suspected it could be done, but now I've seen it. Thanks for sharing them! I still think the red train emblem looks like a TIE fighter.

Right, I'll be away whatever week you people decide to try to kill me. Just let me know in advance. That's a Swedish accent? I thought it was Russian...

There are some very good ideas here, so many that I'm just going to repeat some of them, but with an eye toward hoping that a LEGO rep reads this thread and says, "hey, that Shadows character makes sense, we really could make some of those easily" and then rubs his hands together at the thought of all the money. First off, Athos is dead on with the pony. Who wouldn't like to add some variety to their stables, and what better way than a pony? Well, for one thing, other colours of horses (and yes, a zebra as well), but a pony and some variations would be an excellent addition. Net cost? Finding the mold and using it. Net gain: Huge profits! Maybe not huge, but people would be happy and buy them up, I guarantee it. Next, birds. They wouldn't need to be much larger than the frogs (in LEGOLAND, everything is horrible disproportionately sized, but we'll ignore that for now). I could definitely see some lego pigeons for city and modular sets, or seagulls that could be added to city sets, pirate sets, just about anything with water, even silly Agents sets. The added attention to detail is one of the things that people appreciate about LEGO, so isn't it about time we had more than just parrots? Yes, I know, there is a bird in a cage, but it doesn't count. It just doesn't. Don't make me come back there. Finally, sheep and pigs. Yes, I just snuck two into one point. So sue me. We have cows (we need more, and we need them in more affordable sets or most people are going to have 2 of each kind and that's it...), now finish off the farm with some sheep and pigs. And chickens. Shut up, I know that's three, but chickens really do finish it off nicely. I'd just like to see a set with the elephant they already have, in light and dark bley. I think I only own one of the old ones.

I want to like it, I really do, but I'm betting that whole cockpit is a pair of stickers. Stickers make me sad. I'm going to try to love it anyway, I just don't know...

Two spies? You know, that sounds good on the surface, but it's actually harder to find them when there are so few. One, really motivated rat can wipe out a whole family if they aren't careful. Or so I've heard. As for you, alienboy, anything that the Commander or Seadrik tells us should be above reproach. It isn't like they're trying to tell us that there are a bunch of witches to find. Do get your eyes checked, dear, you're obviously as blind as a mynock. And you have kissy pirate lips. You doing anything later tonight?

Happy Birthday Cutlass_Iz (you know, we don't change userids, but we would capitalize that for you)! I will not make a disparaging remark about this cake. I will not make a disparaging remark about this cake. I'm sure it's quite tasty. Ok, move along now. No, really, go. FINE! What the hell is that? Three sagging blobs of questionable chocolate sitting in what looks like shredded newspaper and tiny plants! Sorry, it's all they had at the Google Cake Store.

He died because he has an extra hole in his head where all the blood is leaking out. Oh, motive! The motive appears to be fairly obvious, the stolen briefcase. I think it's the cause for the chase and all the ensuing destruction, leading up to and including the death of the boss. If it isn't that, what's left? Someone trying to take over? Maybe I could keep his hand grenade? Just to be on the safe side and all. Subtle way to ditch the ditz.

So, the alien admits he's a weirdo. Still, doesn't mean he's all bad, and we can at least hope that not-shooting-first runs in the family. Never stopped me before.

Um, that's just silly. First, we know that there was gas left or it couldn't have mixed with other chemicals to cause the tire damage that we have been told it caused. Second, are you really not certain it's murder? Do you think he was barreling down the road, running over and hitting various things, then crashed, reached under the seat, retrieved his revolver, put a bullet in his own head, then put the revolver back in place before finally getting around to dying? Maybe he also got out of the car and did the hokey pokey, since he clearly had enough time in your mind! I'm missing Dakota already. There was a dame with some nice ... brains.

Shut up, you ... you ... YOU ... BRUCE WILLIS WANNABE! Think you're all cool and action hero-like. Why don't you go blow something up, like your face! Since the 4th in command is under the direct control of, um, the commander, he can't be a spy... DUH!

Well, there went my theory down the drain, but it's ok because I'm a girl and I'm hotter than Hincklina. Oh Dayton! What do you think we should do? *flutters eyelashes*

You might want to specify which one, and someone will probably come along and give more details. I've heard that the park stores aren't as good as the regular ones, since they're run by the park which isn't actually TLG, but a seperate company. I think it really depends on which park, though.

Bullet in the rear hubcap could be old, could be new. If it's new, they chased him, he lost control, they got out and popped him then ran like cowards. I don't know, he had guns, he wouldn't have gone down without a fight, but I don't understand them being under the seat. Speaking of which, let's note one thing right now before someone starts looking my way, me being the jailbird and all (like we haven't all had out time up the river). All I own is a tommy gun and the boss took a single shot from a .44. Not to put too fine a point on it, but that makes me innocent. Now that we've settled that, can I have his revolver? I could really use one of these with the cops after me and all. You have a nice hat. May I call you... Zachy?

Why did they skip the 4th in command and take out 2, 3 and 5? Who would be #4? Beyond that, I've got nothing here, which is fairly typical at this point. Investigators, please be thorough tonight so we can get somewhere tomorrow. Until then, who's up for some cards?

Sounds like a high-speed chase, to me. That's a lot of stuff to hit. But if so, who shot him? I'd like to check the seat of the car for a lot of blood, maybe indicating that he was shot earlier and fleeing, and not shot on the scene. Clearly, he grabbed the briefcase, tried to open it, ran like hell, got shot somewhere along the way, either before or after the crash, and now we're left to figure this out. I think we'll learn a lot when we get that briefcase open. Was he carrying a gun and had it been recently fired? Are there any bullet holes in the back of the car or anywhere else, other than the one in the windshield?

I don't know, you seem less emotional than a couple of the ones that are supposed to be men. As long as they're arguing, maybe we could talk a little. You know, dear, prison makes you appreciate all those things you've been without for so long, if you catch my meaning...

Mwahahaha! Ok. Next time, I'll send my Paradisa army.
