Indeeeed. Oh well. Being vaporized is much less painful than puking tongues as I expected would happen. Have fun everyone!! I will be watching this twisted game from afar. :ninja:

Welcome FH!
So am I to understand that the punishment for not meeting the posting challenge was to be replaced or was that just coincidental timing? If so, glad I did it! :phew:

As for the night poll, it looks like Nebulo 8 is going to end up winning so I will vote there. Anything to keep moving.
FYI

Replacements are completely independent of challenges and are arranged by the player and myself. I talked with Andy/crusty_mustard in this case and he said he really wanted to keep playing but wouldn't feel he would be able to keep the commitment time-wise to play, especially because he is going to have busy weeks in the near future with exams.

Now modkills for not participating... that's a different story. :feb:
Yes. Apparrently you are quite famous for them :driveby: This is definitely you to rule breakers/challenge failers

Re: [DAY 1] Avant-Garde Mafia 2: The Ultimate Dimensional Ba

I will not be in much today until after Day 1 has ended as my fiance and I will be meeting people at various wedding venues all day :) so I will have to make my vote now just in case I am not back in time.

I was hoping to have more to go on by now but, alas I do not :sigh: At this point Leech just seems like a civie trying not to use his vote on another civie. But, I don't know.
With nothing else to go on and no one going with or against my earlier theory about locations benefiting teams, I am going to cast my vote based on that. I REALLY don't like the Residents after Avant 1 (puking tounges and all) and my theory is that the Residents would have benefited from the supposed Pluto portal. So I am going to cast my vote for Boomslang because he was the first to jump on the wagon to Pluto. This is purely because I have nothing else to go on and I won't have a lot of time today so I am REALLY sorry if I am wrong.

That could be interpreted to mean that having too much is just as bad as having not enough, which is the kind of trick I could see Sock pulling. Based on that conclusion, I wil now refrain from any more on-topic posts, indirectly meaning that I have to vote this early on, in this very post; so I will now cast the first vote, for myself.
Might I ask why you would vote yourself, particularly so early into the day? I do not want, and will not get into, a discussion about random voting, but how could this ever be construed as a civvie move? You are either 1. Voting a known civvie or 2. Voting a baddie, I assume you will say you are doing the former, thus my quesion, why would you vote for someone you are certain is a civvie (assuming that is your stance)?
There are secrets in many of the role descriptions, so it could be that he knows something we don't know. Most likely he'll gain something by voting for himself (if he survives the lynch). Otherwise it would not seem to make much sense.
This does strike me as very odd, against the self-preservation that this game is theoretically all about. Alternatively, it could be a masterful bit of paranoia induction: he must have a secret power that gets activated by votes, so don't vote for him! Layers upon layers, am I right?
I agree fullheartedly. It is possible that he will benefit from the votes he gains as a result of this. That, or he has a one time immunity or full time lynch protection. Anything is possible when Socky is hosting.

bea wrote:awesome post socky! I'm not sure what it all means, (I'm with the svs camp. I feel rereading in order ). I don't find the particular posting requirement all that harsh and it is a nice way to encourage discussion. While the prize thing on a day 0 poll is pretty traditional, it is possible that the portal vote was for storytelling. Wasn't the avant game where we had to decide where we were going during the day and svs and a bunch of others got frozen out in the snow while we were trying to build shelter and hunt and stuffs? Anyway - I could see some similar mechanic being used here as well.

Not sure who i find suspicious just yet, but wabbit was funny earlier. :) (Srrsly, I LOLed in the car and Diggz was all "What?" and I was all "Wabbit cracks me up." and then he scowled for a minute. Good times.)
The Avant 1 game being the only other mafia game I have played, I remember it very well and also see similarities.
If I may speculate: There are 3 baddie teams and there were 3 choices in the opening post. Avant 1 was 5 for 5 also with each choice benefiting one particular team. I did not suspect this similarity until I saw that Nebulo 9 was waiting for us on the other side of the portal, my vote being to stay away from extreme heat and extreme cold. I suspect that the supposed Pluto portal was to benefit the Residents (The ice world in Avant 1 benefitted them as well). I now suspect that the portal with massive brain planet on the other side is to benefit the Ziltoidians. This leaves the sun to benefit Herman and the Mysterious Voice. Whether or not the teams knew this as they were voting, I have no idea.

That being said I still have no idea who to vote for! :confused:

But then again, I've had times where I didn't follow Alex's challenges or forgot about them and he has some rather nasty punishments if you don't obey his challenges. Although since this is my second post, I figure I'm safe for now. Plus I need to go to bed anyway so I will make up the third one sometime tomorrow. Which is when I will also start looking more closely at the game thread and see what pops out as being suspicious.
I too am afraid disobey SockFaceMPAlex. I have heard lots of stories about his punishments though I have only witnessed several. :rip: Therefore, I will obey his order/challenge.

Do I have this right in that the Planet Smasher aka Herman escaped through the portal where Earth once stood? If that is correct and we choose the Earth portal, couldn't we end up wherever the Planet Smasher went???
From what I read I gathered that Herman and the Mysterious Voice have joined the rest of the humans disguised as humans.

Not a bad point, but it could be a case of false avantness.
Alas, I know, but I do not know, and thus I guess.

Re: Avant-Garde Mafia 2: The Ultimate Dimensional Battle

Based on the possibility of the "Supposed" sun and pluto portals not existing (I also don't like that "resident" word in there), and on the fact that a portal is now in the place of Earth, I don't like any of these choices....
But I will go with the portal that once was Earth.

Hurray for the unknown! :sigh:

Although the very obviousness of the Earth Portal, gigantic and opening right before our eyes makes it kind of an attractive danger of sorts, like bait, almost, to my mind. Glad we have time to think this one over. Earth Portal really does seem too obvious, but that "supposed" bugs me.
Agreed! I am very bugged by the "supposed"(s). What do they mean??? :confused:
