This is exquisite! Great job as always! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

I'm making a note here, huge success. But hey, at least you don't have to deal with whatever the hell they are! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Oooh! Look at those sexy Alien ship's o. Two of Octan's planets! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Well, I hope at the ripe age of however-old-I-am-now, I won't be banned for my actions before 3 or so years ago. Statute of limitations, man! Um... Oops. :blush: Days last 72 hours and will not close early unless there is a unanimous lynch. I will fix the rules accordingly. Sorry guys! I really like how TPRU handled it in Ragnarok, and it was my original intent to have the rules work like that. I must have forgotten to change them when I was preparing them. Rules have been changed and the new rules are bolded. Sorry for the confusion. Also, just a further bit of insight into my logic: I wouldn't close a day early with mandatory voting. Then the game becomes more of a race and less of a puzzle. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Vote update: 10 votes for Doctor Wen (Xenophobic Monoxide): (Mediumsnowman, Hinckley, Tariq, Bob, Captain Nemo, TinyPiesRUs, CallMePie, Fhomess, Piratedave84, Jluck) 6 votes for Clementine Lister (Lind Whisperer): (Chromeknight, Sir Stig, Xenophobic Monoxide, Lazychicken, Lady K, Dragonfire) 1 vote for Harriet Stomper (Mediumsnowman): (Lind Whisperer) 1 vote for Hannah Ford (Ranger of the Forest): Mostlytechnic 10 votes are required to lynch. You have 24 hours left in the day.

Hmm. I guess you win then. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Shhhh! Don't tell the mods! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

I miss that too... although considering how long ago my first post was, odds are it'd be super embarrassing to see these days. Probably it was full of emoticons. Early on in my tenure here I was posting like strings of emoticons every other post. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Octan already sells Vacuums in both exploding and non-exploding varieties. Octan employees get an employee discount on all Octan products. *percent of discount may vary ~Insectoid Aristocrat

If you want to use a Corporation feed, you are always welcome in Octan's. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

You are right! Thanks for catching my mistake! Vote Amendment: 8 votes for Doctor Wen (Xenophobic Monoxide): (Mediumsnowman, Hinckley, Tariq, Bob, Captain Nemo, TinyPiesRUs, CallMePie, Fhomess) 6 votes for Clementine Lister (Lind Whisperer): (Chromeknight, Sir Stig, Xenophobic Monoxide, Lazychicken, Lady K, Dragonfire) 1 vote for Harriet Stomper (Mediumsnowman): (Lind Whisperer) 10 votes required to lynch.

Vote update: 7 votes for Doctor Wen (Xenophobic Monoxide): (Mediumsnowman, Hinckley, Tariq, Bob, TinyPiesRUs, CallMePie, Fhomess) 7 votes for Clementine Lister (Lind Whisperer): (Chromeknight, Sir Stig, Captain Nemp, Xenophobic Monoxide, Lazychicken, Lady K, Dragonfire) 1 vote for Harriet Stomper (Mediumsnowman): (Lind Whisperer)

Host note; Majority means a majority of all players (10) must vote for one player to lynch that player. Also, the host would like to point out that voting for one's self will be honoured, if ever anyone can actually think if a reason to do that.

10 votes are required for a lynch. I updated original post, and will continue to inform players of lynch requirement as I update Vote counts. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Guilty as charged, mate! I'll make sure to correct my egregiously provincial accent stereotypes for the day's conclusion. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

After Danny Longleg's announcement, the whole "town" leapt into heated debate over the merits of killing eachother off with such little actionable intel, and why they should take orders from a being so clearly ambivalent to the lives of others or the advancement of the Federation in the first place. Actually, no, they just starting trying to figure out who they'd vote off first. But it wasn't all serious discussion. The facility members still had some work to do. Hannah Ford remembered she had a package to deliver. Hannah: "Here you go, rookie! I'd like to thank you for choosing Ford space-lines! 'We get the job done in half the time, with half the normal crew of a two pilot vessel, and with half of the federation federation involvement of a usual smuggling trip, for only twice the price!' I'd also like to thank you for tasking me with smuggling in something legal for a change. When the Feds pulled me over, I managed to convince them that all my cargo was legal just because of this!... Also, that'll be an extra 50 space bucks for the Federation entanglements." Bock: "Well worth it, my good, good friend! Now! Let me see it in person!" Bock: "Oh! It is beautiful! I shall call this traditional Klingulcanomulan blade Excalibur! Named so after the famous Klingulcanomulan sword of legend! I am aware that you humans lay claim to this tale, but I assure you, it's much better in the original Klingulcanomulan! Ender: "Brutal yet elegant!" Vasquez: "I prefer a rapid fire machine blaster, myself. Also the pictures you showed us earlier really sucked." Clark: "Yeah, I gotta agree. Why were they in black and white?" Harriet: "Yeah, pics suck. I thought it was a space ship." Laura: "Agreed about the pictures." Dave: "What's that on the hilt?" Bock: "It's... It's a Pearl..." Meanwhile, some other facility members were taking care of different business that didn't involve hurting Bock's feelings... Seamus: "Yeah, and it burns, and I've been getting the strongest cravings for sausage, man..." Seamus said, in an inconsistent accent; occasionally Scottish, occasionally Australian, but definitely baked. Doctor Wen: "Alright, let me take a look!" Doctor Wen: "Ok! Nothing to worry about! Just a little Quarryman's Infection! That's all! Easily curable by removing the parasitic worm! You may still crave sausages though. There's nothing to be done about that. It looks like your unique physiology actually held the thing off from doing any real damage!" Seamus: "Oi! Thanks Doc! Doctor Wen: "Now, back to your home planet with my wibbley-wobbley-timey-wimmey plot device! Seamus: "What'd you say?" Doctor Wen: "I said... uh... exterminate?" Seamus: "Oh, that's what I thought you said." Doctor Wen: "So, one more thing: This infection is contagious. You haven't been having any unprotected sex lately, have you?" Seamus: "Oh man, I've gotta make some space-phone calls." 'Rip': "Glad it ain't me this time!" Later, after a while of worthless "day 1" banter, Danny stepped up on a table. "Let the voting... BEGIN!" "Don't shoot the frackin' ceiling, Danny!" grumbled the beleaguered Colonel. With 19 players, it takes 10 to reach a majority. 10 minutes early. Because I love you all. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Danny: "A bit more than 1 earth hour. I said "24 hours" 22.666 earth hours ago. I'm trying to be punctual."

Sounds like Xenophobic Monoxide has chosen to remain in the game! Thanks for making my job a little easier! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Kil'linge. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

No worries, Xenophobic Monoxide, I'll try to find a replacement for you. No need to quit Eurobricks. I had similar feelings after I failed to host my last Quest in Heroica, but I came back after a brief hiatus, because the community here is great and understanding! I hope this doesn't turn you off of the forum. I get that real life stuff happens. No need to do anything drastic. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Anyone care to take Xenophobic Monoxide's place in the game? Zepher? Still up to join? ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Oh man... for a hot second I thought this was real! Now how can I summon my favorite Lovecraftian horrors from their forever sleep beneath the waves in the darkest of black abysses? I guess there's always sacrificing virgins. Sigh. But in all seriousness, we need that wing piece in lime! ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Day 1 is up. Thank you for being the coolest of the 2 extra figures I have since I didn't get 21 players, Raygun Bradby. Your presence will be missed. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Blacktron Mafia: Day 1 Players only, please. Comments on how great JJP is at editing belong in the discussion feed. ............ In Meeting Room 1, in the CLASSIC Space Federation mining facility on LI-420, a countdown had begun.... Colonel Jack Jones: ".... 15, 16, 17, 18, 19..." That's the second time I counted... There're only 19 people here not counting you and me. There should be 20." Danny: "Fascinating." Colonel Jack Jones: "Alright! Who's missing?" "I'm here!" "I'm present also." "Me too!" Colonel Jack Jones: "I heard you the first time, Claw." Danny: "What about that feeble but talkative earthling? Raygun? Where's he?" Colonel Jack Jones: "Raygun Bradby. Yes. He's the one missing!" The assembly anxiously awaited the words of their commanding officer. Colonel Jack Jones: "So, as you should all be aware, long range transmissions are down. This may be mundane, but I fear the worst. We were supposed to get a supply shipment in today, but they never showed up. Something's amiss, and I intend to figure out what! Now, before I begin, does anyone know where Raygun Bradby is?" The crowd collectively shook their heads, or blinked, or stated no three times. Colonel Jack Jones: "Perfect." Danny: "Well, If I was invading this facility, and I'd already cut off transmissions, the next thing I'd do would be deactivate our shields." Colonel Jack Jones: "You spend a lot of time trying to figure out the best ways to invade this facility, don't you!?" Danny: "No, We already essentially own it. No need to invade." Colonel Jack Jones: "Ahh, shut up! Shields you said? I'll be right back. Keep an eye on the damn bureaucrats while I'm gone. They're like children! Or cats! Or cat children! Yeesh!" Several minutes later, deep within the bowels of the facility.... *Whistles oldies* Colonel Jack Jones: Paw off the switches, Raygun! What're you doing down here in the shield generator room?" Raygun: "I... Uh... Misplaced my glasses." Colonel Jack Jones: "you need a blaster to find your glasses?" Raygun: "I... Uh.... Hail Blacktron!" A half-way decent cat-fight ensued... Colonel Jack Jones finally managed to get the upper hand! Later, in Meeting Room 1... Colonel Jack Jones: "I found him trying to take down our shields... He's working for Blacktron!" The crowd gasped in fear and revelation! Danny: "Oooh! This sounds like a fun premise!" Raygun: *groans* "There... is... another...." Danny: "So... one other Blacktron infiltrator?" Raygun: "No... Way more, man..." Danny: "So... Like ten?" Raygun: "No... Clues... In... the pictures...." *sigh* Danny: "What's that supposed to mean?!" Colonel Jack Jones: "I think he's unconscious." Danny: "Nope! Dead!" Colonel Jack Jones: "What the blazes did you do that for?" Danny: "We clearly weren't getting more out of him. Blacktron agents are well known to resist most forms of torture!" Colonel Jack Jones: "Yeah... but you killed him..." Danny: "Yes. Yes I did. Alright! I'm in control! I make the rules now! Raygun said there were other traitors in our midst! I propose we all vote each day for one individual to determine that individual's alignment! With any luck, we'll root out the Blacktron agents among us, and keep the shields up, and repel any invasion force they throw at us! Sound like a plan?" The crowd mostly just nodded their collective heads, muttered a few "Yeah"s or "OK"s, and a "sure" in triplicate. Danny: "Alright! First vote starts in 24 hours! Don't you love the 72 hour long days on LI-420?" Non-Player Characters (2): Colonel JackJones (JackJonespaw) Co-Host Danny Longlegs (Dannylonglegs) Host Player Characters (19) 4 of 2 (Mostlytechnic) Bock Pathos (Bob) Clark Kubrick (Chromeknight) Claw (Lazychicken) Clementine Lister (Lind Whisperer) Diamond Dodd (CallmePies) Doctor Wen (Xenophobic Monoxide) Ender Gaiman (Jluck) Hannah Ford (Ranger of the Forest) Harriet Stomper (Mediumsnowman) Laura Starbucks (Tariq) Major Dave (Fhomess) Minga Gorgon (Dragonfire) Nathan 'Maurice' Mallard (TinyPiesRUs) Paul Harkonnenn (Piratedave84) 'Rip' Sewer (Captain Nemo) Seamus Aaron (Hinckley) Vasquez Rodriguez (Lady K) Zipzop Beetlejuice (Sir Stig) RULES! 1. Each player will be given a character to play, who will be aligned with either the Federation (Town) or Blacktron (Mafia). To win the game, the Town must kill off all the Mafia, while the Mafia needs to outnumber the Town. Third-Party (neutral) characters have their own win conditions as outlined in their roles. 2. Each day you will be able to 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). No other format will be accepted. A majority vote is required to lynch a player. Voting is compulsory. Every player must have a vote placed by the end of the day. Those who do not follow this rule will be subject to 5 penalty votes. 3. A game day on LI-420 will last a maximum of 72 hours. You may not vote in the first 24 hours. The day may end early should a unanimous vote has been reached. After the day has concluded, a night stage will commence, which will last a maximum of 48 hours. Night actions must be sent to the host in the first 24 hours of the night stage. 4. The alignment of lynched players, as well as those that died during the night, will be revealed at the beginning of the next day. 5. You may not quote or pretend to quote anything sent to you by the game host via PM. This 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. 6. 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. 7. 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. 8. You may not edit your posts. 9. You must post in every day thread. 10. If you encounter a problem or have a question, please contact the host via PM. 11. Violation of the above rules will result in a 5 vote penalty against you on your first offence, and the death of your character on your second offence. 12. There are no clues in the pictures. I will not intervene should someone suggest there are clues in the pictures, because there are none. There are not clues in the character flavor text. I wrote that stuff before I even decided on alignments and roles. No punishment will be doled out to violators of this rule, but I expect violators to be heavily harassed by other, rule-abiding players. 13. Grab your towel and don't panic. ~Insectoid Aristocrat
