Could you talk more about this please.

Nah, I just couldn't find anything suitable to represent you. I looked everywhere for a decent gold bar or even a kiwi, and I found nothing. I couldn't believe the Internet had never produced those things to this point. They did exist, but they were more picture than emoji and it seemed lame.

I chose magnifying glass guy because you're an investigator and stuff. :P

#1702

Rico? Where did you go?

Where is everyone?

Hello?

I don't want to die alone...

linki - Oh hi JJJ! What's up?

#1703

Speaking of that, I can translate any of my emoji posts on request for those who might care.

Hi Zebra. I'm watching football so any posts I make right now will be limited.

#1704

That's cool, I'm on borrowed time anyway (if you know what I mean). I'm seeing The Revenant later tonight so I'll let you guys know what I think.

Come to think of it, The Revenant is a thematically fitting film for my current situation.

...which is enjoying my radiatore of course.

#1707

What's up S~V~S!

I see you lurking there too, HBoy. How's it going?

#1708

Man this pasta is great. If it wasn't against proper table etiquette, I would rub my face in it.

Actually, I'm Robert Zemeckis. Far cry from Tarantino my friend.

Atop the Champions Stadium, far, far above the field, was the Hosts' Office. It was right at the very rim of the dome, and had a vast window looking out over the stadium.

Standing by the window were a large bear in a crown, and a cute l'il monkey in a little uniform, looking out across the stadium.

They had just sent messages out to two groups, with a simple question; "Rock, Paper, Scissors?"

Almost immediately, a messenger ran up to their office with their first answer:

"Um, Rock! No wait, everyone says rock. Paper! But wait... scissors are sharp, like a knife, this is Mafia, people get stabbed all the time. No, no, I'm overthinking it, Rock!!
Wait, I just know they will pick rock. Make it paper, I already phoned a friend, that's my final answer. Ro... ohh PAPER. It's PAPER."

"It looks like it will be paper", said the Bear.

A few minutes later a second messenger came running up the stadium stairs. Out of breath, he handed them a sealed envelope.

The Monkey opened it. He looked at the Bear. "It says 'Rock" he said.

~~~~~~~~

Later that night a group of Champions was sitting around a local pub, eating dinner & quaffing some brews. It was loud and crowded. Later, after it was all over, no one could seem to say just who it was that threw the paper airplane across the room. All they knew was that it had pierced someones eye, and plowed right into her brain. She slumped over into her plate, spattering radiatore and marinara sauce all over the tablecloth. She'd only gotten a few mouthfuls, too

a2thezebra has been killed by an odd person with a paper airplane. She was....

Spoiler: show

It is now Day 2~ you have 48 hours to try and catch the deranged individual who did this, or any deranged individual, really.

How did you guys not know Turnip Head was the monkey? Nubs.

#1722

All of your gabbing has driven Elohcin away

She is being replaced by FZ.

Let's give her a big welcome, and, knowing you guys, just to be safe, she will not appear on todays poll, and she will not be able to be targeted with night actions on Night Two.

#1723

#1724

A few sweet, delicious mouthfuls indeed.

#1725

ZEEEEEEEEEEEBRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I fuken called you out, night zerone!! The magic works!!

Also, I want to formally apologise to Eloh for most likely driving her away.

Also, positions?? That doesn't sound good at all...

#1726

RIH roger rabbit- so he was behind the jjj curse then?

#1727

Also, looks like me not being in the poll clear everything. So I'm partially dead.

#1728

Positions, huh? Can any regulars here give an idea on what kind of game mode this is? I'm imagining something like the circular cardgame setup where each player has a set position, and can have certain interactions with neighboring players depending on their positions.

And RIH Zebra.

#1729

The positions set up was from Recruitment Mafia- each role had a different power each night depending on what position everyone votes on the previous night.

I played Recruitment, Sorshilly.

#1731

Well at least there was only one death!

That is my Long Con made personal smilie

So, I was Roger Rabbit in Who Framed Roger Rabbit. The role was both civilian and had absolutely nothing in common with what zebra's role was, at all. Not even vaguely. Postitions were from Recruitment. So, I guess that goes to prove things are a mashup.

(PS, I knew Turnip was the monkey.)

#1733

In other news~

dfaraday was quietly lurking about as he is wont to do, watching quietly and waiting for something to catch his eye. Generally he lasted deep into games as he was so, so blendy. Not this time.

Spoiler: show

dfaraday has been killed by someone. Can't tell you who. Literally

Sounds probable.

We did, after all, vote for the fourth option on the first poll...

I think this time we voted for position 5.

#1737

Sorry to see Faraday and his role gone

That's fucking great.

#1740

No wonder Zebra was having the most fun observing my emoji frustration. :P

Should be some great opportunities for finding her team mates. She was highly vocal.

I wonder if he's the only player with the positions aspect to his role. I'd guess not likely.. that was a fun aspect of the game.

Given 4 of his positions are the same... I find it very unlikely.

#1743

Wow I did not read zebra as a baddie at all. And we also have the answer as to who would emoticon curse JJJ. Well ok, I should start day 2 with a rethink on people I've formed some civ reads on.

RIP DF, I was neutral on you but know you have good insights when you are civ so I'm sorry to see you go. Also, I just enjoy playing with you.

Having said that, as I noted yesterday, when I isoed her I found very little, despite a high post count. A lot of sparring with rico, but not a whole lot of interaction beyond that. Of course, that was up to the point in time at which I did the iso.

I had come in here intending to make zebra my first suspect today, so I need to refocus I guess.

I am very glad that this didn't occur.

why didn't zebra emojify me? nub nub nub nub nub nub

Sorsha is pretty present right now. Thoughts?

@juliets: I did. Now where does that leave you?

He read her as bad.

Ricochet were you actually scum reading those people yesterday or were you just saying that to provoke votes?

#1749

I still think HBoys attitude towards Rico deserves a bit of scrutiny today.

Rico's behaviour was notably bizarre, and now we know it was completely intentional. I'm not sure how HB got to the point of it 'not being so bad'... and I wonder if he was trying to get some cred for rico not coming back bad.

Also, I note that zebra's death makes it very likely there are multiple baddie teams. Not quite confirmed, given role secrets, but probable.

@Mac - rico already answered which ones he was genuine about. He didn't say zebra then

I'm on to you rico

Oh ok. That leaves me as a mistaken civ who had the wrong read on someone.

Finish It
