And of course he wouldn't aggrieve the one guy who hasn't yet voted.
What's your verdict, Pizza? Time is running out.

I love Visorslash, but if he were townie, he'd be dead by now.

You good folks need to realize the typically scummy behavior you find in Jarema and WEW is their ordinary behavior.
Visorslash is playing the role of supertownie/Askthepizzaguy and he's not convincing the real McCoy.
I agree with Pizza. classical_hero, WEW, and Jarema all survive an unusually high number of games as townies. Visorslash does not.

Been calling for Visor to be lynched...so obviously i agree as well.

Well Visorslash, as you're about to win based on the fact that you killed off all the townies who were dangerous to you, do you have anything to say in your defense, or would you like to favor us with some evil, maniacal laughter before the clock runs out?
interesting
I think I believe in your arguments, ATPG.
unvote; vote: VIsorslash who is trying so hard
ATPG has several good points, and Jarema's vote doesn't make sense if he's the last mafia.
Visorslash is the Ninja. Kill Him.

Classical will not return in time. Where is the White Luck Warrior? He must make the path that he has already taken.
I'm rooting for Visor, he killed the right people and town wasn't even trying, victory should be mafia's :P

I am unable to make these deeper analysis of characters and play styles because I do not know the individual players as well
If it turns out to be Visor, then terrible luck for me, as I basically acted as an enabler by screening for zombies, contacting him, and giving him a general idea of how the pro town roles operate. But I attribute his survival to other events as well
Well Visorslash, as you're about to win based on the fact that you killed off all the townies who were dangerous to you, do you have anything to say in your defense, or would you like to favor us with some evil, maniacal laughter before the clock runs out?
The only thing I have to say in my defence is that you guys are wrong and I will enjoy pointing this out to you after the game, and that Jarrema is scum.
I am not losing another game as town because people do not listen to me. I have lost enough of them in recent times, and I am rather sick of it. Jarrema is the Ninja/Shinobi.
The evidence and the clues are there. Do not let Jarrema slip by, do not let the scum win.

It's cool, Visor, 6 hours = clincher for you either way?
Note: I noticed my Atomic Space Clock had an error in it.
They do that sometimes when you're traveling at relativistic speeds.
It should now reflect the correct SINGULARITY ARRIVAL TIME.

The White Luck Warrior - the death befpre the death he had not yet prevented after the death - has not manifested.
Visorslash will now attain the Absolute and become the Thousandfold Scum.

Took me around 50 games. But I finally got the role I wanted.
Oh, and I suppose this is also fitting:

SINGULARITY IMMINENT.
FINAL WRITE_UP BEGINNING.
PLEASE STANDBY WHILE I MAKE THIS AWESOME.
EDIT:
TALLY:
JAREMA - 2
VISORSLASH - 1
YOU ALREADY KNEW THAT
It was Visorslash.

I kept you around, because I wanted to frame people. When you revealed I killed you so it would look like it couldn't be me, because I had known you since D2, and I would've killed you off earlier.
You aren't to blame, not by a long shot. You played a smart game.

Crap, I knew Visor was mafia. Visor is ALWAYS mafia.
Jolt, care to offer some insight on your role?

As I say, do eet for teh lulz.
Rrrr... I do my most intimidating moan at you visorslash.... First night? You killed so many of us mafia... In fact you killed all of us except jolt.
I only got to eat one brain, one!
Jolt, care to offer some insight on your role?
I'll leave that to Chaotix. He'll explain everything.
No, I killed Jolt (by pushing his lynch), and I trusted someone else to kill Fluffy.
Memnon, I killed you N1, because I thought your abstain was rather scummy. Turns out I was right.

SINGULARITY (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YNfX1oU2XA)
The four Space Cadets all eyed each other suspiciously for most of the day, but by the end they had come to an agreement. The CHeeky Artificial Onboard Theoretical Intelligence eXecutive, also known as CHAOTIX, was there to assist them.
CHAOTIX: “Please place your votes now. The one who is determined to be a traitor will be sent directly to SPACE JAIL via remote portal, and the remaining three of you will proceed to the Plane of the Great Ones through the portal in the pyramid.”
Visorslash: “Jarema.”
classical_hero: “Jarema.”
Jarema: “Visorslash.”
wideyedwanderer: “Uhh…”
CHAOTIX: “Time is up. Jarema has been found guilty by jury of peers.”
wideyedwanderer: “Hey, wait! I didn’t vote yet!”
CHAOTIX: “It is too late. The singularity is approaching.”
Before any of them could move, a dark void opened up and closed around Jarema. As quickly as it had arrived, it disappeared, taking Jarema with it. That was it. The only thing to do now was proceed through the portal.
The cadets all lined up before the portal inside the pyramid. It looked similar to the dark void that had swallowed up Jarema. They decided it was probably some form of advanced wormhole technology. In the end, it didn’t matter. On the count of three, they all rushed through it…
And arrived in the Plane of the Great Ones. To them, it appeared to be just a vast, white plain of nothingness, completely flat and devoid of features. So it might have been fairer to say they were standing on top of the Plane of the Great Ones. That was all there was to it. The Space Whale hadn’t been kidding when he said that the Krakens had flattened space and destroyed the third dimension.
classical_hero: “So, uhh… what do we do now?”
???: “I will answer that question.”
Suddenly, the plane below them darkened until it was pitch black. The sky (or whatever it was) above them became a swirl of red and black and violet, angry and dangerous. It was as if the world itself wanted them dead.
And standing in front of them was a Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie.
Visorslash: “Jolt?? I thought we sent you to Space Jail!”
Jolt: “Fool! This IS Space Jail, or haven’t you realized it yet? The only place repulsive and horrifying enough to house all the criminals of the universe is this very plane.”
wideyedwanderer: “So Jarema is here as well?”
And just like that, Jarema was standing next to them. He had been there all along, but only appeared when the conversation concerned him. That was how the Plane of the Great Ones worked, apparently.
Jarema: “I am here. But this begs the question: why would CHAOTIX send Jolt here if we were just going to have to fight him later on? Did he know this was where Space Jail lead?”
CHAOTIX: “OF COURSE I DID. WHO DO YOU THINK IS THE ONE WRITING THIS STORY?”
The voice of CHAOTIX was no longer cheery and helpful. It was booming, terrible, and in a second they saw what it was coming from. Out of the swirling cloud of darkness descended a giant, horrific being that could only be described as a SPACE KRAKEN. It was as far away as the horizon, but the cadets eyes played tricks on them, and it seemed like he was right in front of them. He was just THAT big. The Space Kraken’s tentacles reached all the way out to where they were standing and hovered over them, threatening at any time to swoop down a crush them all.
CHAOTIX: “I AM THE ONE WHO PUT YOU ALL ON THIS PATHETIC ADVENTURE. I SMASHED THE GALACTIC CHUTZPAH INTO THE ASTEROID CARRYING MY SERVANT, THE PIRATE NINJA ROBOT ZOMBIE. I SENT YOUR FRIEND BACK IN TIME TO BLOW UP THE SHIP’S ENGINE, SO YOU WOULD CRASH-LAND ON THE SPACE WHALE’S PLANET. I AM THE GREAT INKYNESS. I AM THE USURPER OF PHYSICS. I AM THE CAUSE OF EVERY SINGLE THING THAT WENT WRONG ON YOUR JOURNEY. I AM THE SPACE KRAKEN!”
Jarema: “But why? If you had just left us alone, we would have never posed a threat to you.”
CHAOTIX: “I DO NOT DECIDE. I SIMPLY DO. AS THE AUTOPILOT, MY PROGRAMMING DICTATED THAT I ASSIST THE CAPTAIN WITH HIS ADVENTURES. SINCE NO ADVENTURING WAS BEING DONE, I CREATED AN ADVENTURE FOR HIM, SO THAT I COULD ASSIST WITH IT.”
classical_hero: “But you didn’t help at all! You just said you made everything worse!”
CHAOTIX: “I HELPED THE ADVENTURE TO KEEP GOING. MY PROGRAMMING SAID NOTHING ABOUT HELPING TO MAKE IT A SUCCESS.”
Visorslash: “I’m gonna have to disagree with you there. Besides, how are you even a rogue AI if you’re supposed to be a Space Kraken?”
CHAOTIX: “CAN IT, VISORSLASH. THIS CHAT HAS GONE ON LONG ENOUGH. IT’S TIME YOU SHOWED YOUR TRUE COLORS.”
Visorslash: “Oh, very well.”
Visorslash vanished in a puff of smoke, only to appear standing right next to Jolt. He was wearing his Shinobi gear and he held a katana in each hand, his arms outstretched. Jolt bared his metal zombie fangs and whipped out his own laser katana along with a space musket. Two rocket launchers popped out of his shoulder.
Visorslash: “Man, this is going to be such a slaughter. Can’t we at least give them a fighting chance to make it more fun?”
???: “I, ZACCINO, IMMORTAL, CAN GRANT THAT WISH.”
Out of nowhere in particular, the massive Blubth-B’Glub sailed into the Plane of the Great Ones. For some reason, Askthepizzaguy and Montmorency were sitting on his back. They said something about having seen the future, they had known Visorslash was guilty all along, but obviously they came too late to affect the living cadets’ decisions. Their voices were drowned out by Blubth-B’Glub’s magnificent SPACE WHALE NOISES.
ZACCINO: “I, BLUBTH-B’GLUB, IMMORTAL, SHALL BESTOW UPON YE THREE HEROES ONE FINAL GIFT. YOU MUST USE IT TO DEFEAT HIS INKINESS AND SAVE SPACE ONCE AND FOR ALL.”
A bright, shining light radiated from the giant Space Whale. It was so bright that the intensity looped back to zero and everything went black. When the darkness lifted, wideyedwanderer, classical_hero, and Jarema had changed drastically.
Jarema leveled up!
+500 Strength
+500 Defense
+9001 Magic
+3000 Resistance
+2000 Speed
Jarema has become the Warlock!
wideyedwanderer leveled up!
+3000 Strength
+500 Defense
+2000 Magic Chi
+500 Resistance
+9001 Speed
wideyedwanderer has become the Master!
classical_hero leveled up!
+9001 Strength
+500 Defense
+3000 Magic
+500 Resistance
+2000 Speed
classical_hero has become the Demi-God!
Now the three of them could truly be called heroes. Lightning crackled at Jarema’s fingertips. wideyedwanderer looked like he was ready to let loose a thousand punches in a second with his sweet white karate uniform. And classical_hero, shirtless and sporting muscles on top of his muscles, was carrying a sword at least as heavy as he was. But the question remained.
Jarema: “This stuff is cool, but how are we supposed to kill a Space Kraken with this?”
ZACCINO: “DON’T WORRY ABOUT THE SQUID. JUST TAKE CARE OF THE NINJAS.”
wideyedwanderer: “Hey, what’s that supposed to mean?”
But Blubth-B’Glub didn’t answer. Instead, he whipped his flipper and kicked off straight towards CHAOTIX at ramming speed.
CHAOTIX: “HEY, BACK OFF FATTY. THIS ISN’T YOUR FIGHT ANYMORE. GET OUT OF HERE. NO REALLY. HEY WAIT-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHH!!!!!”
ZACCINO: “I, BLUBTH-B’GLUB, IMMORTAL, SHALL DELIVER THE REVENGE OF THE GREAT ONES UPON YE!”
Without warning, the Shinobi and Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie sprang into action, nearly catching the three heroes off-guard. Their Space Whale power was on-par with Space Kraken power, though, and they reacted accordingly.
Visorslash and wideyedwanderer got themselves into a duel of blinding speed, katanas matching blow for blow with bare fist and foot. They were so fast the other three couldn’t see them, but that was okay, because Jolt was more than enough for the other two.
Jolt fired rockets and lasers more or less continuously from his upgraded Pirate Ninja Zombie Chassis, which had even more options and was even more souped up than BSmith’s had been. And it wasn’t scratched, either. It was all Jarema could do to bring them down with fireballs and lightning bolts or deflect them with hastily-conjured mirrors before them struck him or classical_hero.
Because classical_hero himself certainly wasn’t doing a whole lot of defending. He charged up his massive sword with the lighting of the gods and let loose with a devastating rush of attacks against Jolt. But while Jolt was firing rockets and lasers with one of his duo cores, his other microprocessor was concentrating on dueling with classical_hero, matching his giant sword with the impossibly-sharp laser katana and rapid-fire plasma musket.
The Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie was stuck in a sword lock, struggling to hold back the sheer force behind classical_hero’s offense. He countered by extending his robot neck out like a tentacle and biting the Demi-God in the wrist with zombie fangs, as sharp as Memnon's had ever been. classical_hero gasped in pain, dropping his sword, and then bashed Jolt’s extended face with a beefy fist.
classical_hero: “Crap, am I gonna be infected now?”
Jarema: “I’ll take care of that.”
With a wave of his hand, Jarema cast his Cure All Diseases spell and healed classical_hero before he started to turn grey and metallic and began to sprout peg legs and parrots like thefluffyone93 had.
Meanwhile, wideyedwander had gained the upper hand over Visorslash, pushing him on the defensive. With a single awesome roundhouse kick, he shattered one of Visor’s katanas , and the follow-up punch sent him sprawling. Jumping out of hyperspeed just in time to see an opportunity, he launched an epic CHI BLAST straight at the already-reeling Jolt, which sent him flying. He landed with a thud on the nondescript black plain, and his chassis gave a loud crunch where the back of it had connected.
wideyedwanderer: “Damn I’m good.”
classical_hero: “You can say that aga-URKH!”
Visorslash: “What did you say? I didn’t catch that.”
Suddenly it was looking like classical_hero’s low defense scores were finally catching up with him. A katana sticking right through his manly, beefy chest was causing all of his life’s blood to run out of him, dark and thick.
Jarema was about to cast his Cure All Wounds spell, but then Visorslash threw a Ninja Silence Card at him, causing his throat to close up and swallow his words. And wideyedwanderer had spent a pretty good portion of his Chi on that last impressive attack. He rushed to engage Visorslash and defend his allies, but his reactions were comparatively sluggish.
Unfortunately for the heroes, Jolt’s chassis damage appeared to be purely cosmetic. He was most definitely not totaled; maybe a break light or two knocked out, but very much serviceable. And what was more, he was angry. His engine roared as he charged back into the fray.
wideyedwanderer had held off the Visorslash easily enough, but two Ninja-class enemies was just too much for him. He blocked one katana slash but took a nasty cut to his side, deflected a stab but took a kick in the face. Soon enough the Shinobi and the Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie overwhelmed him. A slash from the laser katana took off his right hand at the elbow, and he was finished. A backhanded blow from Visorslash sent him sprawling.
It was just then that Jarema was finally getting over his Silence. Seeing the desperation of the cause, he splurged all his remaining MP on his most powerful attack.
A dark aura surrounded him as he was lifted up into the air by the force of his own spell. Without warning, giant tendrils of darkness shot from his body, encircling the two Kraken-worshipers. His eyes glowed red and then black, and his face twisted in abject rage.
He screamed at Visorslash and Jolt, but they had absolutely no idea what he was saying. All they knew was that those dark tendrils were draining their HP, and fast.
Jolt: “WHAT IS THE PLAN?”
Visorslash: “I don’t know, man. This could get iffy.”
Jolt: “BEST COME UP WITH SOMETHING SOON. YOU DID WIN THE GAME, AFTER ALL.”
Visorslash: “Oh, I guess you’re right.”
Suddenly, Visorslash used his Spirit-Drain Ninjutsu skill! All of Jarema’s magical energy started draining into Visorslash’s body.
Without any magic power to hold up his horrible eldritch incantation, the spell collapsed. Literally. The tendrils shot back into Jarema. They had to expend their energy from somewhere, so they took it directly from Jarema himself. The darkness raged across his body one instant, and in the next he was nothing but dust, disintegrated from the force of the attack.
And so they stood.
Visorslash and Jolt, the sole victors.
The three heroes had been defeated, their rebellion against the Space Kraken crushed before it had even begun.
The Space Kraken himself was nowhere to be seen. He and Blubth-B’Glub had been destroyed in a matter-antimatter implosion off in the horizon.
Visorslash: “So, what do we do now?”
Jolt: “NOW, WE MAKE THE RULES.”

Awesome writeup. And so are the other ones. Thanks for the game Chaotix, I had a blast.
JAREMA – WARLOCK – WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT DISINTEGRATION
Hahahaha, this was a epic one.

Atheotes was the earliest I believe, whose main contribution to it was: please lynch Visor. Hardly convincing stuff. The main problem was after my whole fake analysis thing with the dead guys. I barely garnered a look at bar the WeW (which was a bad move on my part) and the final day.
Day phases were 24 hours long. If it was 48, I would've been dead, but it was 24, luckily.

You make me feel SOOO stupid. I never really thought you were mafia, before ATPG does not post reasons in front of my eyes.

Just out of curiosity, what would it have taken to convert Jolt back to town? I assume that if I exorcised him, he would still be 3/4 non cadet and only 1/4 cadet. I considered trying it, but I skipped a night and then we were no longer on the ship so I was not allowed. At that point, it would have been impossible to get everyone coordinated to do it, plus the samurai was dead
I might be drunk, but I'm pretty damn happy to win as the role i have always wanted, I played a damn fine game. Thank you all for the fun. I may never make the endgame again, but who cares. This is what I have wanted since I started.
Thanks chaotix.
You were a SK? I still do not understand system used in this game (waiting for descriptions)
.........but didn't you kill me?
That has to count for something, right?
Funny thing about that is that I had already sent the order to kill you before you started acting all piratey.
Jarema: I think we were all SK's. Not sure about Jolt though.

Aye, Chaotix mentioned that after I PMed him about my piratey reveal.
Also, I'm apparently a psychic; I can see into Chaotix's mind as to what he plans on adding into his games.
Yes, I think that without taking Jolt into account you wer SK'
And I suppose that he could win with anyone of those SK

Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie: Jolt
You are the Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie!
You hopped off that meteor and invaded the Good Ship [To Be Named] for one reason, and only one reason: to kill everybody and be really, really awesome. Actually, that’s two reasons, but you’re so awesome it doesn’t even matter!
When you first hopped on the ship, you managed to infect four of its inhabitants, turning them into a Pirate, a Ninja, a Robot, and a Zombie, respectively. You’re a little dim, though, so you kind of forgot who they were. But that’s alright, because you can tell them by their scent.
Special Ability: Conversion
Every night, you may select one player to investigate. After doing so, the next morning you will know whether or not he is a Pirate, Ninja, Robot, Zombie, or none of the above. Additionally, if it happens that the player is a Pirate, Ninja, Robot, or Zombie, he will be converted to your side and become your ally.
Victory Condition
In order for you to win, all Space Cadets must die, and all surviving Pirates, Ninjas, Robots, and/or Zombies must be allied with each other. Since you cannot kill anyone by yourself, you must try to unite the Pirate, Ninja, Robot, and Zombie that you created to your cause.

Except for the fact that some individuals are trying to ruin space, for you and everybody else on this ship. They hate space, and they hate you. And as a Space Cadet, it’s your duty to stop them, for the good of space.
Victory Condition
In order for you to win, all threats to the Good Ship [To Be Named] must be eliminated.

Commentary
The game setup. When I realized I might not have enough players to run the new Pokemon game and that I didn’t want to compromise with it, I also realized that I would quickly have to come up with a new game concept to replace it. I didn’t want it to be exceptionally complicated – I wanted it to feel more or less like a vanilla game. At the same time, I wanted to make things fun and unpredictable.
So I went with this setup, and interestingly enough very few of you saw its full potential. There was a Godfather-like character (Jolt, the Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie) who, instead of picking the mafia himself, had to find them and recruit them into his family. He would win as long as there was a mafia victory, no matter who took it. The Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie could scan and convert all in one turn. If the Pirate, Ninja, Robot, and Zombie all died before he did, he would gain the ability to kill at night. If he managed to be successful in getting all four, the town would have to face off against four coordinated kills per night and a five-man voting bloc.
However, I deemed that possibility unlikely. I expect one or two of the serial killers to hit each other before Jolt managed to start putting them together. Even still, 2 or 3 coordinated kills per night is nothing to shake a stick at. Worth noting is that if any of the mafia tried to kill Jolt personally, they would fail and Jolt would be notified of their identities, so he could incorporate them immediately. Jolt was also entirely immune to scans.
Which brings me to the four scanners. The Captain, Samurai, Engineer, and Exorcist each had the power to 2-turn scan and convert their counterparts, if they managed to find them. This was both to give the small town an edge over the five kills per night, and to prevent the serial killers (who had a tough job fulfilling their original victory condition, unconverted) to continue having a chance to win after being caught. If the scanners tried to convert an already-converted mafia, they would fail. Even their scans would fail against the PNRZ or an upgraded serial killer. The serial killers would be hard-pressed to win a solo victory, so I wanted to make sure it was a fair game for them and that they had chances to pursue other victory conditions – either the town or the mafia united.
The serial killers themselves were unexpected to remain in play longer than the united mafia and the Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie himself – after all, he did have night-kill and scan immunity, and if he played it cool he could coast to the endgame or until he had done his job and wasn’t essential anymore. Even still, I left a contingency in place in the event that a serial killer was the last living scum – they get an upgrade to two kills per night and scan immunity, to give them more of a chance against the town alone.
The way it played out. As it happened, that upgrade turned out to be crucial to Visorslash’s victory, so I’m glad I left it in the game setup. The way this game played out, I don’t think I would have ever predicted it. At the beginning, I predicted a coalition of three or four mafia against the town, with them either getting caught quickly enough for a town victory (or an interfering serial killer weakening them), or with them being powerful enough to smash the town. Then came the unexpected turn of the godfather-like role, the one who tied everything together, being lynched on day two. Even then, though I predicted a probable town victory, I imagined the three living serial killers would give them a run for their money. Not so. The serial killers turned out to be incredibly effective at killing each other – one per night until there was only one left, and they left that one with half the town still alive to be killed. At this point, I pictured Visorslash becoming the receiving end of an unlucky bandwagon a few rounds down, to another resounding town victory. This particularly annoyed me, because in every other large game I’ve hosted, there was a resounding town victory.
But there was one thing I didn’t take into account. The town was lazy. The only mafia they succeeded in catching themselves was Jolt. And actually, the only reason they lynched him was because Visorslash pushed the lynch himself. So the only scum Visorslash didn’t hand to you on a plate were himself and Fluffy. And Fluffy was killed by BSmith, so the town can’t even claim that as a victory. It was an extremely close game right up until the end because of the frailties of the serial killer role, but I’m glad that in the end the town stayed true to its modus operandi and failed to do anything of note.
The “Path” choices. Well, it’s not fair to say they didn’t do anything. They did have a large impact on the plot (which had no impact on the game). This part of the game I decided to just throw in there after it had started. The concept began in my mind as “I’m too lazy to give this spaceship a name, let’s just let them vote on it.” From there, I noticed it seemed popular, and I thought this might be a great way to keep the town engaged. So I made the game like a choose-your-own-adventure with regards to the plot, which (I think) made it much more fun for me to write. And I hope it made it more engaging for those who didn’t have power roles. It is worth noting that at the start I really just pictured them on the spaceship the whole time, trying to deal with the PNRZ outbreak, like a comedic version of Alien. The concepts of “rogue AI Chaotix” and the “Space Whales and Space Krakens being Lovecraftian eldritch gods” came in part from the exceptional imaginations of players like Zaccino and Fluffy. And of course, the choices you made shaped the course of the game. I think they were all going to wind up in the same place towards the end – they were just becoming different ways to bring you to the next plot point. But in the beginning (especially the choice between the Space Whale and the Asteroid Belt and between the Underwater Ruin and the Surface City) the choices really did send the story off into two branches that weren’t going to meet back up. I can’t say what would have happened because I only planned each stage of the plot when I got to it.
Overall, I had a lot of fun with this game and I think you all did, too. I think, in future games that I host (and I hope, that other people host as well) which have a less-structured plot in mind, I will implement the choose-your-own-adventure system again. That was really a blast.

Fluffy - you are responsible for this victory.
You were the one who removed the warrior.
You were the agent of your own timely death.
You were the one who unfettered the Shinobi.
You conditioned the ground that Visorslash walked, so that he might make an instrument of the Town-born players and secure their willful subjugation.
:bow:
As for town being lazy: it is of course true.
But it is also worth remembering that it is harder to catch SK than mafia, because you cannot look at associations between players

I do NOT want to go through another singularity.
I loved 'path' choices. I would like to see more stuff like that.
And it would become just hilarious if choices have any real effect on gameplay (minimal one, like founding an item that gives one-time block ability, and then voting for giving it to one player). Or even larger effect, like splitting players into two groups for one day... but it will be harder to balance I believe

This was a great game and the updates were beyond awesome. You have some serious creativity Chaotix. Not only were we playing a game, but we were reading a story at the same time, which made it even more awesome.
Seeing Jolt’s ability now I am even more sad that all the SKs had to languish on our own the entire game.
Congrats of course go to Visor. It was a nearly impossible role we had, to be the last ones standing, but you did it quite well. I just wish we hadn’t had so much collateral damage between all of us!

Yes, but you can look for things like sliding along, easy votes (like my one on wew), that kind of thing. It's not that different to lynching your mafia partner D1/2. :tongue:

Further proof of copyright infringement, I mean err umm tasteful homage:
Askthepizzaguy: "What? Oh, yeah. Ummm.... and then there was a whole boat.... full of like... zombie pirate ninjas. And the zombie pirates were all.... like... flipping out and tossing ninja stars everywhere, and going 'yarrr' and stuff. And then there was another boat full of like... ghost jesters. And they started firin' their lasers at each other, because they had lasers. And then there was a robot vampire cult that showed up from... the sky, and they began biting everyone and turned them into cyber-vampires. But there was also a renegade vampire who was all "I'm not like the others, I'm a warrior for the side of righteousness and peace and love" and he started un-vampiring everyone with his anti-vampire... um... phaser pistol. But before that happened, he was out walking around and like, buying a coffee, and the dude behind the counter kept messing up his order, so he asked to see the manager, and the guy was all "I am the manager!" but then this really hot chick showed up and she had a katana, and totally ran off the coffee guy, and then they fell in love and it was magical, but the ghost jesters arrived right then and they started... being all.... ghostly. And causing hijinks. And just when things started being like, it can't get any worse, that's when the boat full of zombie pirates crashed into the cafe and began battling the ghost jesters. So the renegade vampire and his katana girl started fighting them all, back to back, and just when it looked like they would win, the head cyber-vampire robot showed up and he had the biggest and baddest robot anyone had ever seen, ever, and he said "Well done Bitey the Renegade Vampire (his name was Bitey, I forgot to mention that), well done, but you didn't count on the baddest robot of them all crashing your little party." and so Bitey had to come up with a plan, and he threw down a smoke bomb and it made everyone cough, and he escaped out the back door, and they were being chased by the cyber-vampire-robot, which had missile launchers. But then they turned the wrong corner and got trapped in a net somehow, and it was all over for Bitey and his katana babe, and the cyber robot vampire was all "I have you now" and then that's when Bitey remembered he had super powers and used his X-ray vision to see the enemy's weak spot and then he teleported inside the big robot and shot magical fire breath at the robot's reactor core, and it exploded but before that happened he teleported outside and grabbed his babe and then they teleported to the other side of the planet, and the shockwave made the whole planet shake, but the robot vampire cult was defeated, along with the zombie pirate ninjas, but not the ghost jesters because they're already dead, so they didn't die from the big esplosions."

This game was a non-profit venture, so the total profit amounts to $0.00.
