I *knew* I wasn't crazy about the ballots!
Where the eff are our two lovely mods?

I don't actually have the blank ballots item, I was just pretending I did in the hopes that it could break the tie. Any chance it worked?

The election officials emerge from the Office of Elections in Gotham City's City Hall with grim faces, protected by a ring of police. "All ballots have been counted, and the vote stands at 3 votes for TT, 2 votes for Devyn."

The officers whisk TT away. She is never heard from again.

Well that was uninformative. Still glad I pulled my crazy blank ballot trick. Also incredibly surprised it worked.
 
The fact that this game is still going on is not conducive to me actually getting work done on my no-classes day.
 
Alright headed into hospital now. Will try and check in later. Have a feeling this might be the end. Need a miracle now.

no news?

It isn't a long night in Gotham City. The villagers are looking for their savior. But he will not come tonight. See, the day's lynching left the villains in an awfully good place. They killed the one person with the power to summon Batman to anyone's aid. And so it was with great pleasure that FromTheBox, Two-Face, the last villain dashed Devyn (a citizen) against a rock and spilled her brains. Her scarred face continues to smile as she turns on EquineConstant, another citizen. It's a creepy smile with one side of her face scarred and EquineConstant backs away slowly, hoping to stall for Batman.

It does not happen.

Finally, there is order in Gotham. But not the kind the citizens had hoped for. Arkham's inmates are freed and crime rampages the city. The Dark Knight is nowhere to be seen and the city plunges into darkness.


Wolves win.
 
Ah, I see. No one was batman. Batman was called from outside the game.
Very interesting. Now I see why no one answered when I asked who visitied me!


And no roles for villagers.

A nice couple of twists there.

Well done mods.

Interested to see the game mechanics (tomorrrow), especially that makeup...
I thought it hid the user from being found and killed, but it obviously didn't work for me!
 
Two two two twice x2 too two two two bloody two!

I had to use the #2 in every post!

And I admit I effed that up even. Twice (lol) I posted without thinking and missed the two component 🙁

But yay wolves!

The make up had two uses - you had a 50/50 chance of being seen as villager or as villain. So if you were investigated that night, you could protect a wolf or "out" a villager.

It did not turn out as planned as no one who used it was investigated.


There were NO roles whatsoever for villagers. But there were a lot of items. And most of them were meant to even things out. Like having 2 badges.
 
I was about 95% sure FTB was a wolf after I got killed the first night after saying I was suspicious of her. I was really interested to see how it came out. I hope everyone enjoyed the worthless shark repellant spray (sorry TT).

yup, the shark spray was flavor text. The real use was to get to different areas with the grappling hook.
 
ohhh fffs finally!!! i knew it was you FTB!! (only recently though, not before I died) bc your posts seemed sometimes contrived (adding that reference to 'two' in and all I guess) and arghhh

nice win though. 😎
 
Random thoughts:

o I was surprised at the fairly recurring "LIS would do ....." theme that ran through the game. On the one hand, the people involved in that train of thought were absolutely correct - I love to confuse things. On the other hand - this was Dyachei's game and I was just along to help. 🙂

o At some point I thought people would come to the realization that they shouldn't put so much stock in the exact wording of the nighttime PMs (especially from me!). In Avengers, people got really caught up in the lightning/electricity thing (I think?). Here, people got *really* focused on the riddles. That was pure happenstance - Dyachei sent out the first few PMs and used the woodchuck comment. I sent a night out and decided to use an actual riddle. Dyachei picked up on that and continued. Poor SOV got the woodchuck tongue twister and was then raked over the coals. But there was no actual change in the game - it was just wording.

o Players never do what you want. I already knew that, but .... it's fun to see. You throw objects out there thinking "this will have X effect" ... and then players confound you. For people who haven't modded, you should try it sometime if only to see how the players totally don't follow the script. It's neat.

o This game was very, very simple mechanistically, since there were no villager roles. It was intended to be object heavy. And the lack of villager roles was meant to confuse.

o Catwoman was neutral. At the risk of contradicting my first comment, she might have been added purely because I was sure somebody would say "no way - LIS hates neutral characters." More about her in a bit.

o Hat-tip to Krist for playing along with a difficult mayor role. Thank you, Krist. Krist was predetermined to be mayor. The vote was theater. Corruption was at work.

o Here are the objects. They had a 50% chance to move every night, in general:

Batmobile - protection. (The RNG loved SOV and gave it to him all the way to Day 7, which is the only reason he survived so long.)
Bat Signal - Summoned the Dark Knight, who had a chance to silence or kill.
Utility belt - Allowed movement. Amazing how often "spray so 'n so with shark repellent" was picked, even though that didn't do anything.
Detective's badge (x2) - Investigatory item, no special rules. Had any of you investigated someone twice we would simply have revealed more about them to you, in the case of a wolf, or been more definite in our response (if a villager).
Press Badge - Allowed you to do the night write-up. Use of the item protected you from the following day's lynch.
Batarang - Silence attack
Two-face's coin - Swung an RNG situation in your favor.
Joker's Make-up - 50/50 chance of appearing to be a villain or villager if you were investigated. Didn't happen.
Bomb - Purely there to annoy. You had to use it or pass it. If you opted to do nothing, it exploded with a chance (I think 25%) to kill you.
Mayor's Phone - Allowed you to talk with any one other player for the entire day/night.
Bat Cuffs - Prevented action at night.
Venom - Using the venom gave you a 50% chance to attack someone, or die.
Catwoman's Whip - A tease item. Allowed you to make someone post in pics.
Freeze gun - Intended to destroy items. Was there partially for the bomb and partially for the wolves, but it never fell in their hands.

o I got a great deal of enjoyment out of watching the banter about whether there could be two detective badges. Thank you.

o Also thank you to our press-badge writers, who did an awesome job.

o Villains:

The Joker - 25% chance to escape lynch; could only be killed by lynch.
The Riddler - Makes one person talk in questions every night.
Two-Face - Investigates as a villager. Obsessed with the number 2 and had to include it in every post at least once.
Scarecrow - Scares the crap out of his victim. Can cause someone to talk in terror for a day/night, or could try and force the victim to kill someone (25% chance). If the player opted for the latter and failed, then the victim suffered no consequences at all and would have known that somebody had tried to force them to kill another player.
Mad Hatter - Could force another player to post a specific message in the public thread on odd days. The forced player could not post again until after the lynch.
Poison Ivy - Reserve villain. The reserve villain roles were mostly not fleshed out.
Calendar Man - Reserve villain.
Ra's al Ghul - Reserve villain.
Crazy Quilt - Reserve villain.

o Back to our neutral player Catwoman, who had some ridiculous restrictions because, as everyone knows, I really DO hate neutral characters. She would have won in the event of a three-way tie (villager/villain/Catwoman). She could post only once per day. In a picture. With no verbiage. That had to have a cat in it. About her only saving chance was that she could steal objects - by name - at night. So in theory she could have stolen the car to protect herself (at least from being killed). She'd have a 50/50 chance to lose it again, but.... better than nothing. DVMD came at it sideways and asked if she could draw pictures and post them so that she could put in more content than just a slew of pics grabbed from google. I was really impressed with that and was totally looking forward to seeing where that would go - and then Joker killed her night 1. I came very close to fudging those results because I really wanted to see how the hand-drawn pics would work out, but in the end I couldn't get myself to bend the rules. Thanks for being a good sport, DVMD.

o Last, to Dyachei: I was able to help out far, far less than I did in the last game I co-modded. Sorry! Everything just kept falling at a bad time.

what, I was gonna be mayor before any of the voting happened?? That was crazy and it sucked not being able to post or PM but very interesting and awesome game mods!! 👍😍
 
What a long game. Longest I have stayed alive that I can recall except for one game in the lounge.

It was fun. I guess I missed the fishy part of FTB's posts... plus she didn't post that often so it was hard to catch the 'two' thing.
 
Two two two twice x2 too two two two bloody two!
I had to use the #2 in every post!
🤣awesome job FTB:claps: I kept :laugh: as you kept posting 2's:laugh:

Yay wolves!

Awesome modding LIS and dyachei, thanks!!

I didn't even know the Joker had a 25% chance of escaped lynch - I guess thats what happened with the boat, eh? I kept thinking, how did I get on a boat?:laugh: awesome

Okay, I really thought I was going to be lynched because of this! Pretty sure krist was super suspicious of me once Cuit announced she had the badge after I'd already told krist I'd investigated her. I lived in fear of being lynched until I finally was successful and found a wolf!

Also, I guess I know why Devyn went crazy and killed me now. Darn that I lost out on a 25% chance of death!
 
I was kind of bummed that I didn't get to draw any pictures for you guys but I really needed to focus on school too so it ended up being a good thing. Good job wolves!
 
Yay wolves!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀😀😀


SOV...we tried to kill you like 4 times.😛


Thanks LIS and dyachei 😍
