New LEGO DC Minifig Review and Raffle!! Thank you to Kevin Hinkle and the LEGO Group for donating these excellent figs to be reviewed and raffled. Click here to see these figures reviewed and learn how to win them!

Thank you to Kevin Hinkle and the LEGO Group for donating these excellent figs to be reviewed and raffled. The Green Lantern Front view Back view, very nice detailing. Angry face! Batman Front view Bruce, your face! Back is printed with excellent detailing! Hinckley's two cents The great thing about these figures is the quality. After goofing around with the quality of the collectible mini-figures using cheaper production and flimsy connections, I'm happy to say LEGO doesn't spare on the quality with these! This is sturdy plastic, well molded, strong joints, all with the normal LEGO sheen! Batman - gets an update with an excellent new torso! I like the detailing on front and back. The design differs slightly from the original. We get some more contours and the utility belt! Check out those rear delt armor plates. This must be Joel Schumacher's Batman. LEGO uses the same trick with the white band on Bruce Wayne's forehead to give Batman the Animated Series/Comic Book look. This is still an excellent figure with a sleek update from the LEGO designers. Green Lantern - Awesome, and not just because it's new. This is an excellent design as well. Look at all those muscles! I'm a sucker for LEGO Super Hero muscles. I probably shouldn't be admitting that, publicly. LEGO has also done us the favor of offering two different expressions for the Green Lantern: smug, self-satisfied crime fighter or angry constipated vengeance seeker! It's handy to have such a range, depending on what scenario your imagination puts our hero in. This will certainly be exciting to have DC figs of such quality hitting the market soon. If this is an example of the line's quality, I have very high hopes for it, at least figure-wise. So, do you want to win these? Yes? It's simple. All you have to do is build something, post it here, enter it in the contest at legosuperheroes.com (if you meet the requirements of the contest) and you'll be eligible. When the contest ends, we'll randomly draw two winners. One will receive Batman, the other will receive The Green Lantern. It's just that simple! But, let's post some rules anyway... Rules To be eligible you must have been a member of Eurobricks before October 24th, 2011 You must post a new superhero-related MOC or LDD file, that hasn't been posted before October 24th, 2011 You are encouraged to enter your MOC in the contest at legosuperheroes.com You cannot use the same MOC you enter in Eurobricks Batman contest, but since there is no size restriction, come up with a creative little vig. Any MOC will do. Official LEGO superhero figs are not required. Only one entry per member will be counted. (starting an additional account to stack the odds will get you banned) There are no restrictions to entering this raffle based on the country you live in. Raffle closes on November 30th, 2011. Have fun!

First reading and grammar lesson of the day (and perhaps the only one as I've been very busy) Your and you're are two different words and are never interchangeable. Your is a possessive signifying ownership. You're is a conjuction of two words, you and are. It contains a subject and a verd: you are. The sentence fragment above, "your right" seems to be telling someone the something is on their right-hand side, or perhaps they have a certain right. But it does not mean "You are correct" as written. So there.

I am definitely enjoying this. I know it's not perfect, but I think you'll see more what I was going for when all of the game mechanics have been revealed. I'm definitely excited to discuss all the possibilities of how this could work better! I'm glad you had fun and I hope everyone continues to as well.

Not cool. We can only explain it so many times. C&D thread has now been locked again. You can't teach those who are unwilling to learn... Proverbs by Hinckley

Voting is now open. Sorry, I forgot we were going with the 12 hour thing.

badboy, your presentation is fantastic! I especially love the egg and nest in this pic. I am so happy to be part of Day 3. Don't think I won't be in there jumping on reading skills.

Students, learn to read everything, especially information from the host. If I were hosting this game, I'd start killing people who displayed they were not reading posts...

Players only please! Warden Bek Sunfell rarely visits the cell blocks, but today he must confront Officer Lazer Strewn about a rumor he heard from Rirsol Maasym. "Rirsol Maasym told me the guards were leaving contraband in the meals!" Warden Bek Sunfell threateningly waves his space-gun, "If you won't tell me what you've given the inmates, maybe this space-gun will loosen your tongue." "Please Sir!" Officer Lazer Strewn cries, "I have no idea what you're speaking of! I don't put contraband in the meals!!" Warden Bek Sunfell pulls the trigger and vaporizes Officer Strewn. Smoking body parts lay all over the recreation area floor. "This interrogation gun is doing that thing again," the warden says, "I'll have Officer Strewn take a look at it later." "Let this be a lesson to you two!" Warden Bek Sunfell, "Wait, are you two inmates?" "No," Officer Elles Fissionfire explains, "We're correctional officers." "Oh," the warden says, "Am I a good boss?" "The best!" Officer Cometfire Vun stammers as he stares at the smoking interrogation gun. "That's nice," the warden says, "Let's talk later. I have to give the morning announcement. That's when my face goes on the wall." "I can't believe this!" Officer Cometfire Vun cries, "His body parts are strewn all over the place after being hit with that lazer! Our names are prophecies!" "What the hell does mine mean?" Officer Elles Fissionfire asks. "Maybe they're not prophecies," Officer Vun wonders, "Officer Heart Attack was hit by a bus." "No, that was Officer Bus Crash." Officer Fissionfire reminds him. "Listen, the warden only found a couple of the contraband items," Officer Elles Fissionfire says, "And there aren't enough weapons anymore anyway. Let's just continue what we were doing. We need to replace those items and mix it up a little. If we get caught, we can still blame it on Stormdream. The faster these goons kill each other off, the quicker we can get that extended vacation time. It's union law you know." "Now that your boyfriend is dead, can we have dinner?" Officer Cometfire Vun asks, "Doctor Stormdream gave me a little memento you may have some fun with." "If you come near me with his, I'll cut yours off," Officer Fissionfire warns. Soon, everyone was gathered for the morning announcement. "Who's breathing down my neck?" Pronti Flavior asks. Day Four has begun. You may not vote in the first 12-14 or so hours. The Meal Cart will come to you via PM shortly.

Whindum convinced 40 individuals in the Fanglish System that he was a messenger of God. They gave their life savings to him and he convinced them that suicide was the way to commune with God.

Alternate Inconspicuous ______________________________ Rules Each player will be given a character to play, who will be aligned with either the Town (Model Inmates) or the Scum (Gang Members). To win the game, the Town must kill off all the Scum, while the Scum needs to outnumber the Town. Third-party (neutral) characters have their own win conditions as outlined in their roles. To win, you must kill off all other factions. Each day you will vote to lynch a player. Voting should be done in the following format; Vote: Character (Player). Similarly, unvoting is to be done in the format; Unvote: Character (Player). Proxy voting is allowed, with the format Proxy: Character (Player) and Unproxy: Character (Player). No other format will be accepted. The player with the most votes will be lynched. In the case of a tie, no lynch will take place. Voting is mandatory. Failure to vote will result in the untimely death of your character. Please remember that the reason for the delay is that players all reside in different Time Zones. It is usually unfair to a player to log in and find themselves voted out. Accusations should occur during the first 12 hours as a courtesy to the accused to defend themselves before voting starts. A game day will last 48 hours. You may not vote in the first 12 hours. The day will end after 48 hours. After the day has been concluded, a night stage will commence, which will last 24 hours (or 48 hours if an emergency comes up). You are required to use your action. Night actions must be sent to the host in the first 20 hours of the night stage. You may not choose the same meal two days in a row. Players may not target themselves. The alignment of lynched players, as well as those that died during the night, will be revealed at the beginning of the next day. You may not quote or pretend to quote anything sent to you by the host via PM. That includes all the details of your character and role, as well as any night action results. Role claims and reporting of night action results are acceptable, but in your own words only. Do not attempt to use the structure of your role PM to your advantage. Do not play the game outside the thread. Similarly, do not post out of character inside the thread. Game tactics and roles may only be discussed in the game thread or via PM with other players. Private discussion is done at your own risk and should be treated as part of the game. Metagaming should similarly be done at your own risk. If you are dead, you may not post in thread or discuss the game with any of the players. Any information you had becomes void, and may not be passed on. You may not edit your posts. You must post in every day thread. Violation of the above rules will result in the untimely death of your character. If you encounter a problem or have a question, please contact the host via PM

"I miss the moon..." Zosma sighs. The spirit of Cuxun Marsburst angrily appears and grabs Zosma's Twi'lek head tail things. "I've got you moon right here, bitch," Cuxun growls from beyond the grave.

"Let me at that NPCP!" Scar Mimitsus growls, "And don't ask me what that extra 'P' is for!" "Back of blue-boy!" Tierro Prius warns, "Sully Sutnam has protection now. You so much as lay a pebble on him and I'll kick your sorry megablocks." "Oh yeah?" Sneers Scar. "Yeah!" Tierro sneers right back. "You and what huge horned troll?" Scar asks. "Urgh," says Foog Roorum as he bashes Scar's rock-laden head repeatedly into the floor.

"All right you two," Doctor Koukiu Stormdream admonishes the pair of cannibals, "It's one thing to keep breaking into my office, but now you are cooking the executed inmates?" "Maybe you should stop locking your door with bones." Saproton Veeck suggests, "Mmmmm...bones..." "And this fish isn't Rirsol," Zosma explains, "It's some fish name Koilette." For some reason, Pronti Flavior jumps a little when she hears the name of the fish. "Are they eating fish?" Illiap Reertu asks, "I'll knock them both to next Fabulday. That's the day of the week when our Creator rested."

"So you've all decided to believe these stupid rumors and vote me out," Rirsol angrily snaps at all of the Cheleb Mensa inmates, "Do what you will but you'll all get yours in the end!" "Uh-oh!" Officer Lazer Strewn says, "Everybody better watch their butts." Silence follows the joke. "How 'bout you, sexy hog?" Rirsol says to Officer Elles Fissionfire, "You don't have your crystal cock to ride on anymore. Want to take a ride on mine before I take my last breath. Grant a dying fish-thing his dying wish." "Not on your life, slime-bucket." Officer Elles Fissionfire says. "I'm sure the warden will love to hear how weapons somehow keep ending up hidden in our meals." Rirsol smirks, thinly masking a threat to Officer Fissionfire and the others. "Officer Vun!" Officer Bek Sunfell beckons from the holo-projector, "Please detain the prisoner Rirsol Maasym and bring him to me for interrogation." "Yes Sir!" Officer Cometfire Vun answers. "Do you ever close your mouth?" Killoopio Daylight asks. "Mouth?" Officer Cometfire Vun says, "If you're looking at something that's open, it's not my mouth. It's something else. It causes quite a bit of confusion when dating outside of my species." Day Three is now over. Please get your Night Actions and meal choices in within the next 20 hours. Late Night Actions will not be accepted. The sooner I have all Night Actions in, the sooner Day Four can start. Thank you.

Cuxun Marsburst falls to the ground. "Cuxun!" Officer Elles Fissionfire cries, "Oh please be faking! Please be a subconscious fulfillment of a self-defeating prophecy!" "What is it he has that I don't have?" Officer Cometfire Vun asks, incredulously. "An enormous crystal cock!" Officer Elles Fissionfire cries. "Oh my goodness!" Doctor Koukiu Stormdream says, "What could have happened?" "He was poisoned." Everyone answers in unison. "We don't need a doctor, just get a fork and a knife, some fava beans and a nice chianti." Someone says. The Deceased Players Jissaleh Blazen (JimButcher) convicted on Day One - Scum (El Plutns Gang) Crime: Stupidity. Jissaleh is from the ZubZub System where it is illegal to have a low IQ.

What is that? Something from Heroica?

PM it to me! No discussion thread for you people. 12 hours. Read it to find out why. If you have questions about the game or why this thread was closed (and you better know why it was closed, just read it) PM me or the host. I have updated the first post with a very specific lesson about what this damn thread is for. If anyone asks me any questions that have already been answered in this thread, I will find you probably lose my shit. Read the thread. It has been repeated so many times, what the thread is for, you can't possibly miss it unless you are reading with your eyes closed!

Homework for volcanicpanik: Read the last three pages of this thread and tell me why your post is metagaming and against the rules. Honestly, the next player to post a question about the game in this thread will get mod-killed. I don't care if I am only assisting, I will kill you.

Actually, my point was nobody is mad at you. We're just trying to specific. You should be having fun. Just don't ask questions in here. Badboy is your teacher and here to help, so PM him. Don't ask questions here because it could give away your role or make it seem like you're metagaming. Need further clarification on what I mean? Read my last 8 posts in this thread. I love you all and so does everyone else. Have fun! Keep playing and have a good time.

I'm not mad. I'm just explaining what your post looks like. And we've been over it. I'm pointing out to you that reading the whole discussion thread and thinking about how the mafia basics being discussed can also pertain to your possible actions could help you a great deal. I'm simply asking for you to think about what you're saying before you say it. Yes, the first line in this thread says it's for discussion, but the rules state that players' questions should be posed to the host via PM. Think about how your questions and comments look. Yes, the first line in this thread says it's for discussion, but Rick, Pandora and I have all clarified for you that it's not for players to discuss things. In the past, non-players have posted in games to say they were enjoying it or they like the MOCs. That is the purpose of this thread. If you, a player, have a question or need clarification PM the host. This isn't just beating you over the head with it, it's for making sure that every player understands this. It has been a problem so far with this group and someone needs to be specific about it. Players, don't discuss the game, tactics, actions or ask any questions or give hints towards your affiliation or role in this thread. That is not what this topic is for. Think before posting. Read the rules. I love you all.
