Re: The Game of Champions 2018 [ENDGAME]

Today was much better than Tuesday. After testing, we took the students out to the field for a game of Kickball. Not one kid on a cell phone and they took turns and (talked shit too, but that's okay) and had a good time. My team played zero defense, so we lost mightily, and I jammed my little finger in the bargain. I didn't think it was a big deal until I started typing tonight.

Seriously, TH picked MP, so he picked you.
choosing players that aren't even in the game is how you make the most money in real gambling.

if you bet $20 on Vince Vaughn hitting two home runs at a red socks game, and it happens you're immediately a millionaire probably.

that's probably how gambling works
You might be surprised at how often that is the truth.

Long Con wrote: Thu Jan 17, 2019 11:26 pm Day 1, I voted Bob over Quin because I needed Quin to be alive for ME to kill. I erroneously thought that, because he had revealed that he received The Ring, that I could get a sweet 35 points for his head. Turned out that didn't matter, BUT Ramses was wearing rings in his pic anyway! NICE! Hence the fortuitous Night 2 kill of Quin by me.
THAT was clever thinking, and it had not occurred to me that you would start taking items into consideration. Luckily the Ramses picture had rings it in it (the original one I had looked blurry, but something was clearly on his hand, so I got a higher resolution, and Bingo).

I think that if Kylemii doesn't shoot tonight, you should consider lynching him tomorrow. I don't buy the role claim so easily, not among all the flips we've had so far.
I'm not complaining about my upcoming demise. Kylemii, if telling the truth, has a lot of value. But if he doesn't use it soon, like tonight, I'd lynch the heck out of him for having such a simple role claim.

And I vote Enrique. Kill two birds with one stone.
You don't think he may be blocked tonight? If there is a bad blocker (or item) or a 3P block, or a civ blocker taking suspicion, that he would not be a likely target for a block?

I am not a fan of the thread directing people how to use their powers and holding them hostage in this way.
I loved S~V~S' guidance here. This is important thinking.

Dingus.
DH, one thing that puzzles me is why you didn't make up a role and power to avoid getting lynched.

The first thing I would do in this scenario if I were bad is make sure my team had claims and backup claims. It isn't like claiming cop or doctor: You have 365 days' worth of games to choose from, with multiple roles in those, and some of the roles I included weren't even in those games (like Robin or Gleeok). You can make up any damn thing you want: It's timmer's Liar's Club game.

Hell, you could have claimed "Cuphead and Mugman" and said you could boost your target's vote by one or some such thing. You could have said you were "Dr. Wily" but actually a doctor. The possibilities were endless.

Re: The Game of Champions 2018 [Day 5]

The mafia correctly worked out that they could get away with some serious lynch manipulation (compare Xerxes with BOB).

And if LC ever claimed truthfully, they could redirect his kill.

But damn:

sig hit Yahtzee right away. He was a sane cop (he didn't know that), targeted Mac, who was N1's kill. Then he got Luna and DH the Night everybody got two targets. That was incredibly lucky, and the funny thing was people were telling Kylemii to kill him.

Long Con's only two "regulation" kills were mafia: Quin and JJJ. The odds of that happening are so slim.

I hated that my mafia got taken out so quickly, but that was a fucking Leprechaun convention in Bunco, Illinois.

Re: The Game of Champions 2018 [Day 5]

The Nine Enchanted Objects

The Wand
This mysterious wand enchants your target each Night, and that person must either target or vote for whom you say either that same Night or the next Day, respectively. It may only be used once.

The Camera
Take a picture of someone at Night. See what develops...
Upon using the camera, the photographer can learn what universe the target’s role is from. If the wielder of the camera is killed, he takes a last-minute picture and his role is made public no matter what. Finally, the target of the photographer may only post in images the next Day. No words or numbers are allowed.

The Radio
Not only do you get to control the music for the Host posts (submit the song you want played to the Host as a Youtube link at least one hour before the end of the phase), you get to interview the former lead singer for Boston, Mr. Brad Delp, in BTSC. It’s more than a feeling!

The Ring
This is the fabled one ring of power. When you put it on, it will make you invisible, and you will be off the lynch poll that Day. However, this power is not without a cost: Each time you wear it, the chance of you abandoning your present objective and win condition increases, as you become a hideous independent with a new win condition. *Secrets*

The Costume
This strange ensemble transforms its wearer into another person. During the Day phase, if you use the costume, you can additionally post and vote as someone else using a fake account. This getup may only be worn once.

The Brick
This is an ancient, dusty brick. There seems to be an inscription, but you can’t make out what it says without rubbing the dust off...
This brick is from the Tower of Babel, the builders of which were cursed into speaking in different tongues according to the Bible. By rubbing this brick, everyone receives a different insanity. This brick can only be activated one time.

The Cap
Upon further inspection, this is a fool’s cap. Care to try it on or give it to somebody else?
You truly are a fool! Now you must amuse the others. For the next Day, you may only post jokes. Ha ha ha !

The Meat
This is fine slab of cursed meat. Whoever possesses it accumulates one vote each Day. To end this unfortunate circumstance, you must give it to somebody else during a Night phase.

The Calendar
This would look like any ordinary calendar, except some of the boxes stretch across three spaces. Weird right? It’s incredibly persuasive, too. If you were to use this calendar, it will make the next Day phase 72 hours instead of 48. This calendar can only be activated one time.

Re: The Game of Champions 2018 [Day 5]

Civilians (15)

Image
Mega Man
As the Blue Bomber, you will absorb an essence of the power of the most recently lynched person, which you can use that same Night.

Image
Satellite Surveillance Engineer
Using satellite technology you’ve developed, you will hear occasional transmissions of BTSC at Night. On one occasion, you may use a signal jamming device to close all BTSC for one phase.

Image
Homura Akemi
Delaying your target’s Night action will cause it to go into effect on a Night of your choosing. You only have eight charges, which is how many times or how far into the future you can delay an action. For example, if on Night 1 you wish to delay a target’s action to Night 5, that uses four charges. This delay affects all actions, including kills.

Image
Rupert Giles
With an encyclopedic knowledge of mystical artifacts, you are astounded that you have never heard of the nine enchanted objects. Each Night, you will commit to researching one item, and if you are successful, you will learn what the studied object can do.

Image
Tevye
You care about the roof. You care so much that you will invite someone into your house each Night to brag about your roof and how much you care about the roof and protecting that person from all harm. If only you were a rich man, your roof would be good enough to protect you too, but alas.

Image
Monica Geller
You are perfect for party planning, as your attention to details and obsession with getting the job done gives you the skills needed to do an impressive job. This time, you’ll be planning a party: A lynch party! One Night, you will submit a list of invitees to the Host. These will be the only names on the poll the next Day. Your list must have at least four names.

Image
Charlie Blackmon
Center-fielder for the Colorado Rockies, you hit for the cycle in Game 162 against the Nationals, and now you want to do it again. Choose SINGLE at Night and everyone’s vote the next Day is worth one, no matter what. Choose DOUBLE during the Day and everybody with a targeting role can choose two targets that Night (except for kills). Choose TRIPLE at Night and your vote counts as three the next Day. Choose HOME RUN any time and you cannot die for that half phase and the next, because you are a stud. An American star. You also have a favorable umpire behind home plate: If there is a tie in the lynch poll, you break it. You may only achieve each hit once.

Image
Brad Delp
Known as the former lead singer for Boston, you value peace, love, and rock and roll. You establish BTSC with whoever possesses the radio. Rock and roll band, everybody’s waiting!

Image
The Cop
You are a cop investigating these recent events; unfortunately, you do not know your own mind. Each Night, you will alignment-check someone, and be told “not mafia” or “mafia.” If you are sane, all your checks will be accurate. If you are insane, all your checks will be inaccurate. If you are naïve, all your checks will result in “not mafia.” If you are paranoid, all your checks will be “mafia.”

Image
The Dentist
Each Night, if someone targets you, you bring that person into your chair and gas the targeting person, learning that person’s name.

Image
The Conductor
You’re trying to shoot a movie! You want plenty of drama in the script. While you are a civilian, you increase in power with each civilian lynch that occurs. After two civilian lynches, you can quote somebody and say, “That isn’t very creative.” Doing so blocks their vote, making it count for zero. After three civilian lynches, you can post “That would be a crazy role!” Doing so gives you an immediate role check. After four civilian lynches, you can post “Cut!” at any time and stop a lynch from going through. After five civilian lynches, you can post, “Do it again!” and have a consecutive Day phase, bypassing the Night. After six civilian lynches, you’re probably screwed.

Image
The Flamethrower
Something is out there, man. You’ve got a flamethrower. One time at Night, blow somebody away.

Image
The One-Hour Werewolf
During the Night, you exhibit lycanthrope for exactly one hour and ravage the town and mafia alike. During the Night, in a one hour window, you will use your feral sense to sniff out a lie (you may lie detect one thing said in that window), use your heightened hearing and sight to learn who targeted whom during that hour, and scratch and claw at someone who posts during that time (he or she will begin the next Day with two votes due to wounds).

Image
Robin
You have three magic tomes at your disposal. Use them wisely!
Thoron: You protect yourself from all negative actions.
Arcfire: Anyone targeting you that Night suffers one vote the next Day.
Elwind: You may take yourself and a friend of your choosing off the next poll.

Image
Gleeok
You are a two-headed monster, surprised to have been summoned by a sorcerer other than Ganon. Confused, you left the sorcerer, and now find yourselves caught up in a battle you didn’t ask to fight. You are initially loyal to the civilian cause. If you are whole, you win with the civilians. If you are lynched, you die. If you are killed, however, you become two heads (sock accounts). One head (green) is still loyal to the civilian cause. The other head (red) is loyal to the Mafia. If both heads are alive at the end, you lose. You win with the faction aligned to the head that was alive last.


Mafia (4)
Has BTSC
Kills on Odd Nights

Image
Shang Tsung
As the sorcerer of Outworld, you have brought forth the souls of ancient kings and spirits to enslave Earthrealm. Your sorcery enables you to absorb the soul of whomever your team kills, and for the next phase, you will have that individual’s power at your disposal. As long as you are alive, the identity of your victim is shrouded in mystery.

Image
Xerxes
Exercising your great power and influence, you can prevent someone from speaking, voting, using an ability the next phase, using an item, or any combination of these things. Whatever action you take against someone emboldens them and fills them with righteous anger, however: Each action you take against your target increases his or her voting power by one the following Day phase. You cannot target anyone who shares your alignment.

Image
King Ramses
You are powerless without your slab. *Secrets*
Spoiler: show
Should Ramses come into possession of the slab (of meat), he unlocks his ancient Egyptian powers.
Ra: Demand the sun God set the sun early, closing a lynch poll early by as much as one hour.
Anubis: Visit all the dead in BTSC and learn what you can.
Hapi: Flood the thread with posts. Those with fewer than 20 on-topic posts are blocked.
Heqet: Make your vote more fertile: It is worth two.
Horus: Let the falcon take you off the poll the next Day.
(Note: Should Ramses get the slab, wait one full phase to announce it in order to prevent the giver of the slab knowledge that he has given it to Ramses)
Image
BOB
Each Night, you will possess someone. That individual must target as you wish that Night and vote as you wish the next Day.


Independents (3)

Image
The Captain of the Yun Qui
You are a smuggler, and you work for the highest bidder. Your ship has a fine crew, technology, weapons, and things people want. Starting Day 0, you will offer a good or service to place up for bid (you and I can work on what these are). During the Night phases, everyone may submit offers to you through the Host. The offers can be anything, but they are binding if you accept them. During the first 24 hours of the next Day phase, you will choose the offer you like best and the winning party will be notified. During the second 24 hours of that same phase, you will work on your next offer.
For you to win, the number of deals you make must outnumber the living at endgame.

Image
The Reaper
You are an assassin, and now you find yourself in a classroom.
A higher power seeks your services but is skeptical about how good you really are. They have decided to test you. They have stolen the Even Night kill from the mafia and given it to you. They have also protected you from mafia Night kills. When it comes to lynches and other Night actions against you, you are on your own.
During Day 0, you will assign a point value to each of the following nine marks:
Spoiler: show
Marks:
Someone with glasses (Rupert Giles, The Flamethrower, The Cop, Charlie Blackmon, The Dentist)
Someone wielding a weapon (Mega Man, The Cop, The Flamethrower, Robin, Homura Akemi)
Someone who used a crown (Xerxes, King Ramses, The Dentist)
Someone with a full beard (Charlie Blackmon, Xerxes, Shang Tsung, Brad Delp, Tevye)
Someone with hair past the shoulder (BOB, Brad Delp, The One-Hour Werewolf, Homura Akemi)
Someone that has appeared on an NES console (Mega Man, Robin, Gleeok, Shang Tsung)
Someone appearing inhuman (Gleeok, One-Hour Werewolf, The Conductor)
Someone who is an American icon (Monica Geller, Charlie Blackmon, Brad Delp, BOB)
Someone wearing jewelry (Mafia Fantasy Player, Monica Geller, King Ramses, Xerxes, Brad Delp)

0
0
5
10
15
20
25
30
35

Oh, and Jayne Cobb is worth 40 points.

You accumulate points based on the highest unused value category your kill fits. For example, if you kill Skeletor who is holding his power sword, and you assigned 10 points to "Someone wielding a weapon" and 25 points to "Someone appearing inhuman," you get the 25 points (unless you already killed Beast Man, who also appears inhuman, in which case you would get 10 points for Skeletor holding a weapon).

To pass the test and win, you need to accumulate 70 points. If this is accomplished, you will be removed from the test, victorious, and the mafia will regain their Even Night kill. If you die, the mafia regains their Even Night kill and you lose.
Image
Mafia Fantasy Player
You’re playing head-to-head...against the Host in Mafia Fantasy. There are no salaries in this format, and the scoring will be based on a modified version of DFS Mafia. You pick the eight players on Day 0 you think will do the best (I’ve already picked mine). After Day 0, the Host lineup and your lineup will be revealed. You win if your lineup scores more fantasy points than the Host lineup. Good luck!

Re: The Game of Champions 2018 [Day 5]

Night 5: Under Pressure
“Under pressure? Never.”

A stranger walked among the twitchy group that once was a diner full of bacon eaters and coffee swiggers who had become BOB-slayers and soul thief lynch mobs.

“Who are you?” they asked. “And are you here to harm us?”

“I am The Reaper.” He grinned. “Harm you? Why would I do that? I’ve never harmed you. Well, except for him.”

He grabbed Kylemii, who was eating a dead man’s grits, and blew his brains out in front of everybody.

“That’s for having a weapon,” The Reaper said, removing the flamethrower from Kylemii’s yoga pants. “You shouldn’t have told me you had a weapon.”

A hushed revelation fell over the gathering. “So you’re the one who killed on Nights the Calendar marked as 2, and 4, and so on…wait a minute. Tonight says 5.”

“The real name is Long Con. And I own this town.”

The heavens opened, and a beam of light descended upon the Long Con.

“You do not. You’ve passed your test. We have work to do.”

The voice’s reverberations were gone before the assassin was.

Everyone looked around, nervous and unsure.

“What do we do now?”

“Let’s rebuild this here diner.”

“Hell yeah!” said Kylemii's ghost.

“I’ll take care of the roof,” said S~V~S. :nicenod:
Long Con has won.

The Civilians have won.

And Turnip Head got spanked like The Eagles.

The End

Re: The Game of Champions 2018 [Day 5]

Three is a Magic Number
As a young lad, the director, speedchuck, always saw his life in three acts: Birth, Life, and Fame.

The first two went as planned, but when the executive producer said they had to cut off his funding, he didn't think she meant his head.

There was no encore.
speedchuck has been lynched.

Spoiler: show
He was The Conductor, a Civilian.

Image
The Conductor
You’re trying to shoot a movie! You want plenty of drama in the script. While you are a civilian, you increase in power with each civilian lynch that occurs. After two civilian lynches, you can quote somebody and say, “That isn’t very creative.” Doing so blocks their vote, making it count for zero. After three civilian lynches, you can post “That would be a crazy role!” Doing so gives you an immediate role check. After four civilian lynches, you can post “Cut!” at any time and stop a lynch from going through. After five civilian lynches, you can post, “Do it again!” and have a consecutive Day phase, bypassing the Night. After six civilian lynches, you’re probably screwed.

It is now Night 5. You have until 9pm EST to submit your PMs.

Exercising your great power and influence, you can prevent someone from speaking, voting, using an ability the next phase, using an item, or any combination of these things. Whatever action you take against someone emboldens them and fills them with righteous anger, however: Each action you take against your target increases his or her voting power by one the following Day phase. You cannot target anyone who shares your alignment.

It is now Day 5. You have 48 hours to lynch someone.

Day 4: In Hell I’ll Be in Good Company

Back at the remnants of the diner (y’all bitches done forgot about that, didn’t you?), there was something of a shootout between Elohcin and Lunalee, two gals who had slung hash and were now about to sling each other by the weave.

“I’ll see you in hell,” Elochin said, sticking up her chin, because her chin was her defining feature.

“I’ll be in good company,” Lunalee said, sticking up hers, but I won’t comment on another fella’s woman’s chin like that. You all will just have to imagine what her chin looked like.

When the dust settled, only one chin still had blood pumping in it.

The other chin looked snarled and devilish and insertnamehereish.
Lunalee has been lynched.

Spoiler: show
She was BOB, a member of the Mafia.

Re: The Game of Champions 2018 [Day 3]

Night 3: Bitter Sweet Symphony

It was a Bitter Sweet Symphony quindeed.

The sorcerer responsible for the enchanted objects and the chaos they orchestrated was gone, but in his wake were still evil beings out for murderous conquest.

Despite all this, one fellow couldn’t help himself: He had to pull out his phone and see how his lineup was doing.

“Damn it,” he said. “I’ve got Sloonei.” A moment later he was reassured. “No, wait, wait. My opponent has him too.”

He was so engrossed, checking stats and hoping he had an edge, that he failed to see the edge coming his way, an ancient edge that buried itself in his skull.


Turnip Head has been killed.

Spoiler: show
He was the Mafia Fantasy Player.

Image
Mafia Fantasy Player
You’re playing head-to-head...against the Host in Mafia Fantasy. There are no salaries in this format, and the scoring will be based on a modified version of DFS Mafia. You pick the eight players on Day 0 you think will do the best (I’ve already picked mine). After Day 0, the Host lineup and your lineup will be revealed. You win if your lineup scores more fantasy points than the Host lineup. Good luck!
It is now Day 4. You have 48 hours to lynch someone.

A Kraken caught him and dragged him down, but DharmaHelper was a statue and fought back.”

“That’s a stupid story, Grandpa. Statues can’t fight.”

Now the pockets, when you sit down, everything falls out, your money, your knife, everything, so I need at least another inch in the pockets. And another thing - the crotch, down where your nuts hang - is always a little too tight, so when you make them up, give me an inch that I can let out there, uh because they cut me, it's just like riding a wire fence. These are almost, these are the best I've had anywhere in the United States, But, uh when I gain a little weight they cut me under there. So, leave me , you never do have much of margin there. See if you can't leave me an inch from where the zipper (burps) ends, round, under my, back to my bunghole, so I can let it out there if I need to.

Night 2: Karma Police
Some fellers were sitting around a campfire one night drinking Keystone and talking football.

“If Greg Olsen hadn’t a been injured, Carolina would be in the playoffs, no doubt. No doubt in my mind.”

“You drunk already? Cam might as well be throwing to the cheerleaders. After the way he acted like a baby after that loss in Super Bowl 50, he doesn’t deserve to play in it again. Karma, baby. Karma.”

“Okay,” a third man said, cracking open a fresh can. “Why are we talking about a losing team right now, huh?”

“Well then smart guy, which team is it going to be?”

The man drank and looked at all the faces around the fire, as though he knew the answer and delighted in taunting the ignorance of his friends. “Chargers baby. Chargers all day.”

“Get out of here,” one man said and threw his empty can across the fire, missing as bad as Nathan Peterman.

Reeeeeeeeeeeeeee

The men stopped and looked at each other for a moment.

“Y’all got to lay off them beans.”

And they laughed.

“No way man, Melvin Gordon isn’t going to show up.”

“Doesn’t matter. My man Detrez Newsome will take it all the way.”

“De-who?”

“You’ll see. Man does backflips and everything.”

Turrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrn

“Okay, that wasn’t me this time. Or the time before, jackasses.”

The wind picked up and the fallen leaves were disturbed. The branches scratched one another and fought.

“I’m burning the food!” The biggest one there, the designated chef, tried to get his beef out of the fire and did so, nearly dropping it in the dust, which too was being disturbed.

Thhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhe

“What is that?”

“Who is out there?”

SLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-

A shot rang out. There was a silence and stillness that came into existence immediately with its discharge.

“Who goes there?”

“Good evening gentlemen,” said someone in the shadows. “Don’t feed the animals. Or the undead.”

“What?”

“Oh, and I wouldn’t eat that if I were you.”

The chef looked at his plate and saw that his steak had become infested with locusts, maggots, and decay. When he dropped it, it burst into a cloud of dust upon striking the ground.

They called out again to the voice, but there was no one there.
Quin has been assassinated.
