The Kupps are all siblings.

Just waiting on ADHO15 and sok117 If they check in we can start tomorrow. I think it would be nice to start on the weekend, since most people have more free time.

Sorry to delay on the reply. I recently bought 10211, currently $150 American. The pricing is much better than with the Star Wars sets, and as I wrote before, look a lot more mature. You mentioned the $500 Death Star... I didn't buy it. If I were in a high income bracket, I would consider it, but for someone just getting the bills paid, it's not a reasonable investment. I've bought a few of the expensive non-licensed sets, but I think I've made up my mind to stay away from the expensive licensed sets, the value just isn't there for me. But, I'll warn you, when I started this stuff again, my first set was the Y-Wing... My first dozen were all Star Wars, and now only one in ten is Star Wars. If this hobby takes hold of you, it can take over. And the missus is none too pleased.

You guys are doing good so far Just waiting on Robuko, ADHO15, Rumble Strike, sok117, and Burman. For the sake of the game though, you may need to post images. If you reply to the PM I sent you, you'll be able to copy the image location in order to post in thread. You could even change your avatar or signature that way too

I've posted a pre-topic for day one if people want to go over the rules beforehand, but the day isn't starting yet. Assuming everybody checks in, the game will start in roughly 24 hours.

RULES The game takes place in 24-hour rounds (a Day Round and a Night Round) over the course of 7 days in the quaint village of Lower Brickton by the Sea. During the Day Rounds, excitable citizens take it into their hands to lynch one of the players. During the Night Rounds, the town's population is preyed upon by The Dark Ones! TEAMS -There are two teams: The Town and The Dark Ones. -There are an unknown number of players on each team. -There are no special roles in either team. -Members of The Town will not know the identities of their teammates. -Members of The Dark Ones may or may not know the identities of their teammates. -IMPORTANT! For The Town, this is a No-PM game. Posting in the public game thread is the only method of game-related communication allowed for members of this team (i.e. no Skype, Facebook, Twitter, or whatever.) -For The Dark Ones, this may or may not be a No-PM game. OBJECTIVE -The team left with the most players at the end of the 4th Day Round will be declared the winners. -All players win or lose with their team, so if you're killed during the game and your team wins, you're still a winner. So work together! -If it becomes impossible for one of the teams to win, the game will end early and the other team will be declared the winners. Note: Some non-player characters may be mentioned during the game, but these characters do not contribute to the numbers on either team. GAME PLAY Day Rounds -The day round lasts 24 hours. During that time a player may vote for another player to be lynched by publicly voting in the game thread. -At the end of the round, the player with the most votes is subjected to a brutal death at the hands of the mob. -Votes should be stated in the public thread in bold. E.g. "I VOTE/UNVOTE [name]". -Players may nominate any other player to be their proxy for the day, thus voting the same way as their proxy. -In the event of a tie, the first player to achieve that number of votes will be convicted. IMPORTANT! Failure to vote or nominate a proxy will result in a penalty of 5 lynch votes the following day! Night Rounds -The Night Round begins when the day ends and lasts 24 hours. During that 24 hour window, members of The Dark Ones may murder other players. ID CARD - Each player will receive a Character card containing a full photo of themselves. - Players may choose to reveal this card at any time in the public thread, or not. GAME CARDS There are 3 types of game card in play... WITNESS CARD - Play this card to receive a clue about a crime. - Each player will receive 2 Witness cards. - To play a Witness card, post it in the public thread and nominate the crime you want the clue about. - The clue will be sent by PM to the player who played the card. - If more than one player witnesses the same crime, they may receive further clues. If the same clue is received by more than one player, that signifies there are no further clues to be revealed about that crime. - Witness cards may only be played during Day, up to any length of time after the crime occurred. INVESTIGATION CARD - Play this card to identify which team another player is on. - Players can win Investigation cards by solving challenges (more on this below). - To play an Investigation card, post it in the public thread and nominate the player under investigation. Players may not investigate themselves. - The result of the investigation will be sent by PM to the player who played the card. - Investigation cards may only be played during the Day, and do not have to be played on the same day they are won. KILL CARD - Play this card to murder another player. - Each of The Dark Ones will receive 1 Kill card. - To play a Kill card, send it to me in a PM along with the name of the victim. - Murder cards may played during Day or Night, but will only take effect during the Night Round. Cards are not transferable. Use of forged or altered cards is not allowed. CHALLENGES -During the course of the game, at different times of day, at least three challenges will be presented in the public thread. -If you solve a challenge, send the answer to me by PM. -Each player may only submit one answer for each challenge (no second chances or revisions!) -The first player to send me the correct answer will win an Investigation card. -If no fully correct answer is received within the challenge's allotted time, the player whose answer I deem closest to the solution will win the Investigation card. -The winner of the challenge will be announced in the public thread. Finally... Note to The Town: Although the odds may seem stacked against you, the game is really yours to lose. A considered assessment of the clues is the key to your success. Have fun!

This forum is for discussions, not announcements, please and thank you.

It's really just a coincidence. It's the gaudy 1980's wallpaper of the place I moved to in April. It's really ugly

People playing Belville Mafia are welcome to play, but only if it isn't too the detriment of their gameplay, since both games will be on at the same time. It's up to them to make the call if they are up to the task. @MacK, yes, it'll be started within a week or so, and finished in two weeks, so July is the time line.

Oops, I forgot, I'm starting a game soon I started a game. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=57356

I have a ballpark figure, but it depends on applicants. Of course

The assistance position is basically just carrying out my instructions while I'm sleeping. Anyone interested should be someone who wants to step up their involvement with the games area.

Okay folks, I know the gaming downtime has got people down, and the uber-exclusive Belville Mafia is only going to cure 13 players jonesing. So, here is a special summer event to drive you mad: Evening in the little hamlet, Lower Brickton by the Sea. The town elder has summoned the people. Everyone, thank you for coming tonight. I am sure you all are aware of the reason for this gathering tonight. A series of nods and grunts flow through the room. Shortly, we will arrive at the 300th anniversary of the event that defined this town, the event that gave my family purpose, and the event that still haunts us all; when the planets became aligned and the world was nearly lost. You will recall, my great great great great great great great grandfather was but a lad on that fateful night, hunting fireflies when he noticed a flame from in the forest. Again, nods run through the room. The elder continues. He ventured deeper into the woods, to find a cabal of hooded villagers chanting arcane verse to spirits from the beyond. Only a boy, he knew he couldn't stop them himself, and he informed the other settlers of this village. Armed with torches and pitchforks, they ran to the woods. By this point, the bonfire had grown to a column to the stars. The crowd quieted to a hush. This was a story they had heard all their lives, yet it never ceased to affect them. The cabal's arms raised, their voices heightened to a rage, they opened a portal ripping open the fabric of space. From here, a great evil showed itself. All eyes fixed on the stony elder. It was then that the cabal was decapitated by our village, and the portal was extinguished mid-stream. To this day, we have those ancestors of ours to thank for our lives today. The conditions to open that portal were rare, but not unique. Only days from now, the planets will be in alignment once more, and those gates to beyond will potentially be able to be opened again. We cannot allow this. We must be vigilant. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Are you interested in playing? Here's what you need to know: -This is not a mafia game. There will be voting, but there will not be any night actions (by the town). This will be a game of smarts and sleuthing. -This game will be played in real time over one week. There will be four days and three nights, all 24 hours. If you can't be around, don't sign up. I plan to start in the morning, Japan-time, so the days will start and end in the evening New York time. Proxying will be allowed. -This is an in-thread only game. If you feel compelled to PM, or chat out of thread about the game, don't sign up. It's just a week, you can do it. -Voting is mandatory every game day. If you're a wishy-washy non-voter, don't sign up. With that out of the way, I expect everyone to have a lot of fun, so don't be scared. It's only a week, what's the worst that could happen? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Also, I'm looking for someone to assist, since I need to sleep sometimes. Somebody from America or West Europe would be good to cover my off time. This will look good on your EB resume if you can be a good assistant. You should have ready access to the Internet, obviously, and need to be logged in more than usual. Taken Cheers. No need to tell me your mafia history, I've followed all the games for two years, so I have a decent idea of who's who.

This game is looking sufficiently creepy so far. Good luck to you all! I won't be taking sides. May the best team, good or evil, win

Happy birthday Draggie and Alice! (Alice, we miss you!)

Would you like me to call you a doctor?

Thanks. I did see that flick, in the theater in Vancouver. It came out about two weeks before I came to Japan. It's good, but considering Tokyo to be Japan is similar to considering New York to be America. The city isn't representative of the country. I didn't know that then. I know that now

Why are you so awesome? Everything you do is gold. I hope TLG starts paying you soon.

I too will watch from the sidelines. I wish you all a flowery death

Yup, that's my own personal handwriting font. I'd like to update it someday, but I've been a bit lazy about it

Your line work is nice, very deliberate I've been doing a comic diary of my trip to Canada for the last few days. Today, I got a desk, and to celebrate I pulled out my brushes. I'm getting a little rusty with a brush, but it makes a difference to the liveliness of the art. #1 is marker, #2 is brush pen, #3 is brush. I think I'll stick with the brush. These are diary comics, and not exactly gags. The goal is to capture my culture shock on going back home.
