Yeah, I wasn't in that game where those events unfurled, but I definitely remember everyone talking about it Bioshock haha.

Hey, everyone! Just popping in for a second to say I think the post will be on time but it might be just a tad late. Annie and I are going out to dinner for our anniversary now (a few days early, since the week will be too busy), and then have to do a few quick errands. Timing should work out, but just in case, this is my heads up!

Day 0: No Gods or Kings, Only Man

"So, most of you think you did your best in Bioshock, huh? Interesting..." the voice snickered.

"Okay then! If it's Bioshock you want, it's Bioshock you'll get!" White light flashed all around the players as they were blinded. Soon the light faded and some of them found they were in a familiar place.

"Uh oh..." proclaimed Bullzeye. "I don't know about anyone else, but this is bringing back some bad memories..."

It was Rapture Metro.

"What the sodding hell?" came a voice out of nowhere. It sounded familiar. "Snow Dog!!!" exclaimed Bullzeye. "Where have you been?"

Before Snow Dog could answer, a Spider Splicer descended from the ceiling and ripped out his guts. Snow Dog screamed in pain. "Is it someone new???" asked the Splicer.

The mysterious voice could be heard cackling in the background. "Sounds like you champions have a dilemma on your hands. That Splicer seems hungry to me! Might I suggest sacrificing one of you to it?" he inquired, cunningly.

The champions were disgusted by the very thought.

"Seems to me you have no choice!" exclaimed the voice. "I am the one who controls the dimensions around here. This is real life. You want to continue living? This is mafia after all, right? Then go on, lynch someone! Some of you are good and some of you are bad after all. Choose a sacrifice. And choose wisely."

It is now Day 1.

You have 48 hours to sacrifice a fellow champion to the Spider Splicer.

#170

Day 1 Event: Evolve Today!

"Oh, and how could I almost forget?", added the voice. "This wouldn't be Bioshock without Plasmids, would it?" It laughed.

"And what better way to give some out than to do it Bioshock style -- first come, first serve!"

It is still Day 1.

If you want a Plasmid, quickly PM your host!

#171

The plasmid supply has been ransacked!

There are no more plasmids.

#172

By DH, no doubt.

He was the plasmid fiend if I recall correctly. Host: how many plasmids did you have available?

Good question.

#174

#175

So we seem to be in Rapture for the events of this lynch. Anyone else wondering if future days/nights will take place in the settings of other games?

#176

I hope so since I did not play this one, lol. I wonder if we will have the same poll, minus the previous 'winning' games, every night?

#177

I miss Snow Dog.

Epignosis wrote:I miss Snow Dog.

Yeah...where has Snow Dog been?

Wales, presumably.

He's been on ProgArchives, but hasn't talked much.

#181

I was pretty much destroyed by Plasmids in Bioshock (or I was about to be before I was killed) so I happy to forego them this game.

Now comes that horrible part of the game where I have to start thinking about a lynch..

Ok - so those of you more in the loop in bioshock - a) how does this affect our vote? and b) um day 1? really?

that would be pretty cool tbh.

I was too afraid to take any in Bioshock...if I remember correctly.

I had to find deadies who'd used them or my vote counted for 0. Never found a single one, so I don't think you were alone in that.

Yes me too. I think I might have played for a couple of days and then was killed so I don't have any knowledge about Bioshock. Would be nice if we visited all the games!

#186

Been organizing stuff for my Super Heroes game and then playing DnD all day, so A bit worn out.. I will have some coherent thoughts and shit soon.

#187

is it sad that I'm looking more forward to the "and shit" part of the post than the "coherent thoughts" part of the post? I'm on my 4th hot toddy so ya know - take it for what you will....

You've been in a well and a spiked pit. What now? A sewer?

#189

Listen, this is my Day 1 proposal:

We all choose someone to vote for who seems bad, and then we vote for that person. Can we manage that much?

Oooh la la! Where did you go?

I enjoyed Snow Dog's cameo. I am picturing him in a Welsh version of The Overlook, typing out his novel on a Royal.

Actually now that you mentioned it, I found myself in the bottom of a very tasty cup of cream soda.

Beer here. I love cream soda though.

I like the sound of that. The difficulty is deciding on who seems bad.

#194

Well poo, I'm too late - I couldn't have a plasmid, even if I wanted one ~.~

You're pulling my leg, but I think I could manage this

It's quite easy.

Vote for the person that seems the most suspicious. Got it?

I'm too tired right now to go and type it all out, but tomorrow morning I'm going to make a big announcement, about something I've been working on for this game.

However, you are welcome to act wild and try to get the bad guys to vote for you, and then you either have information or the civilians in your wake have information. How did that work out for you?

Ah yes. You lost.

Like how there's a secret second phase about this game we don't know about?

It was a moral victory. Plus, I got a maneuver named after me. You don't have any maneuvers.

That's why I have more wins than...

Okay, that's why I'm a mod here and you're...

Okay, that's why I know more about Mongoose and you...

You know what? You once sipped Red Stag out of a Days Inn paper cup. That makes you awful.

This post was so full of win.

I also LQTM at DH's most recent post.

I'm glad we are going to get down to business and vote for the most suspicious person, but I'm equally glad it looks like we are going to have a little fun doing it along the way.

I already have someone in mind who will be getting my vote but I'm waiting to see what he does.

yes. Like most of the remaining living players.

Lesson learned: Never trust a Sockhost bearing gifts.....

But in Avant 2, he gave us all gifts, and the people who opened them found a button that, when pushed, deactivated a bomb. I think only 1 person didn't open their gift.

Lesson learned: Sockface is like a really good magician. He never repeats the same trick twice.

Sound advice, my good chap!

#210

The only suspicion I have so far is spacedaisy, I thought it was convenient she was around to respond to sock's post about the plasmids stock being ransacked

I just got the feeling that she probably got one, but didn't want anyone to know about it. Just a minor ping-

Otherwise, I'm sort of interested in seeing if FH carries through with some sort of analysis based on my idea earlier
