Scramble, scramble!
Scramble, scramble!
Incoming enemy fighters!
Prepare for launch.

General Pepper: The remnants of the former Venomian Army have decided to launch an all-out assault on Corneria! Fox, if you can hear me, report back to Corneria at once and help repel the invaders! They're everywhere, Fox!
Fox McCloud: I'm on it, general. But two members of my team are missing.... I'll do my best.

Over the capital city, a swarm of Venomian fighters were engaged in a dogfight with Cornerian fighters. The Venomians had painted their ships the same color as the Cornerians, and were emitting a scrambling frequency to prevent identification. It was hard to tell good ships from the bad. Bill Grey, commander of the elite Bulldog and Husky Units, was attempting to discern which ship was which, using his keen eye and extensive experience. Several of the Cornerian fighters were firing at each other in confusion.
Bill Grey: Bulldog Unit 34, that's an allied fighter! Disengage immediately!
He turned and saw another fighter ignore an enemy vessel, and barked orders to that ship.
Bill Grey: Husky Unit 16, that's an enemy fighter. You're authorized to attack!
Even though he was doing a good job identifying allied vessels and enemy vessels, most of the Cornerian fighters were missing their targets. It was so bad, that the Venomian fighters were attacking each other as well.
Bill Grey: All units, hold the perimeter! Hang on guys, help is on the way!
Fox McCloud: You rang?
Bill Grey: Fox, you made it!
Fox McCloud: Just like old times.
Bill Grey: Bulldog Unit, delta formation! Husky Unit, gamma formation! That should help us identify allied ships.
Peppy Hare: They're heading for the Cornerian Capital building! Don't let 'em through!
Bill Grey: Husky Unit, cover the base!

The capital building of the Cornerian government was destroyed by enemy missiles. In the explosion, many Cornerian fighters and several Venomian fighters were incinerated. The Venomian fighters disengaged from the battle, leaving orbit of Corneria itself and disappearing into the nearby asteroid field. Fox, Bill, and Peppy were able to escape from the blast.
Peppy Hare: Doggone it!
Fox McCloud: We'll find whoever did this, and we'll make them pay for it.
Bill Grey: I'm counting on you Fox. Go do us proud.
Fox McCloud: I'll do my best.
MISSION FAILED.
Enemies down: 0
pevergreen: Man, that was too close!

Begin Night One.
Night phase ends in approximately 22 hours, but if I don't get all orders in, you'll get an additional 24 hours. But let's try to keep a quick pace, okay?
Loved the write-up.
How important were the links?
I think they're just voice clips from the game. Add flavour, thats for sure.
Man I love Lylat Wars. *goes to watch speedrun*
Man that write up was awesome. Totally worth registering here just for that. :)
Well....
:laugh4:
Wait until I do a writeup where something actually happens!
For an example of something actually happening, I refer you to another game of mine which is almost finished.
This isnt going to be one of those games where I need to read the writeup is it?
No, you can tell what happens by looking at the alive/dead list, and seeing what happened to the person who died.
If you wish to skip the fancy storytelling, music, images, and videos, that is fine. As long as you give the game your best shot during the game itself, you can ignore the writeups if you wish. Someone can even give you the gist of it.
What happened this past round was: you didn't die. :beam:
By the way, I now have a Story and Information thread. You can subscribe to it if you wish, but do not post there. All the rules of the game, the player list, and all writeups will be posted there for easy reference.
Tis me, or do we have a nice mix of Cornerian and Venomian players voting for no lynch? Hmmm...
You have something to hide, shlin? :)
So many N64 memories were brought back. Nice one pizza.
Good write up Pizza, I like how we are going to get a running story with this game.
Oh, those were links? Hard to tell, for some reason the links appear black or red to me instead of blue like they should look.
Yes, they changed the old skin when the new Shogun one was put up, too. It makes me sad.
But ATPG seems to put links in bold, which is a good idea.
And the writeup itself: :2thumbsup:
For those of you who don't venture outside the Gameroom, we have the Watchtower to discuss forum issues, including a thread on the very skin issue. That's the proper place for that sort of thing, not the middle of a game. :bow:
Night Phase One
https://i205.photobucket.com/albums/...0FOX/Meteo.jpg
Meteo Asteroid Field
<object style="height: 344px; width: 425px"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/hn2b2gr8gXA"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/hn2b2gr8gXA" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="425" height="25"></object>
pevergreen was piloting his starfighter through the Meteo asteroid field, attempting to get to the planet Fortuna, on the other side. He was looking forward to making repairs on his ship and getting a hot meal after the disastrous battle on Corneria. His starfighter zipped easily between the dangerous asteroids at speeds that would boggle the mind of the average Cornerian. He did his usual status report.
Suddenly, his communications system went haywire. His comm signal was being jammed by an unknown source. Cold sweat began to pool down his back, and his hands began to tense up. He looked at his sensor panel, and nothing showed up on the screen.
https://i205.photobucket.com/albums/...FOX/Caiman.png "Fortuna base, come in! Allied craft, please respond....... Do you copy? EMERGENCY MANEUVERS!!!"
Suddenly, from behind a large asteroid, pevergreen spotted a vessel approaching from the rear. Brilliant red plasma streaked past pever's ship. Reacting instinctively, pevergreen executed a barrel roll to try to avoid being hit. Then he swerved behind the nearest asteroid and attempted to do a vertical loop to evade his attacker. However, the unknown attacker reversed thrusters and waited for pevergreen to come out of the vertical loop. Now pevergreen was right in its sights.
https://i205.photobucket.com/albums/...OX/Unknown.png "I've got you now...."
Red plasma struck pevergreen's engines and his starfighter stalled. The reactor exploded, sending pevergreen adrift. A second blast ripped away the entire starboard half of pevergreen's vessel. All pevergreen could do was smash his instrument panels with his fists in frustration and panic. Then he looked up and saw a bright burst of plasma headed straight for his cockpit.

Sector Y
Death is Yonder piloted his craft through the Sector Y nebula, on his way toward the base on Planet Katina. There was heavy ion storm activity which required skillful piloting and heavy shielding in order to avoid being damaged. Fortunately Death is Yonder had both of those things in ample supply.
https://i205.photobucket.com/albums/..._bear_64-1.jpg "Katina Base, this is Death is Yonder. I should be arriving in orbit at approximately 0900 hours tomorrow. Do you copy?"
The ion activity greatly increased, and soon a gravitational vortex began to open directly off of his starboard bow. Death is Yonder immediately tried to execute evasive maneuvers, but his engines couldn't overpower a gravity well of this magnitude.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
https://i205.photobucket.com/albums/..._bear_64-1.jpg "Katina Base, this is Death is Yonder. I'm being pulled into a gravity well! Mayday, Mayday, all ships in the area, please assist!"
There was nothing Death is Yonder could do. He was soon pulled inside the vortex. The scene inside was indescribable chaos.... there was a vast quantity of space debris. Metal girders, titanium plating, asteroid clusters, and ship debris was being spun around at enormous sub-light speeds. The maelstrom was horrifying to witness... and there was nothing the tiny starfighter could do once it was trapped inside the spinning vortex. Death is Yonder saw a massive metal beam moving in his direction, and there was no time and no way to evade collision.

Begin Day Two
Day phase ends in approximately 46 hours, or 2359 on June 17th, GMT-5:00, eastern time USA.
Night phase results being sent out now.
Kadagar_AV has been replaced by God Emperor.
First time I died on the first night :no:
Odd death, seems like I wasn't targeted by the run-of-the-mill attacker, I mean, no star ship battles like pever, instead a powerful device that opened up a giant gravity well and an inadvertent collision with a metal beam. :inquisitive:
Either a newbie, or someone picked up on the Ultrawar joke.
vote: Chaotix
For being srz on day one.
Vote: Renata
why so srz?
What's srz? :laugh4:
Vote:Joooray
Because I haven't seen him/her post yet.
vote: romanTic
Now that Pever is dead, lets hit the next wasps nest with the big spelling stick
Hey nictel, you there?
Vote: Nictel
Hm, in large games it's hard to find suspicious posts. vote: no lynch
Who didn't hate pever in the first round? It's got to be one of them!
My reasoning is that it'd be too obvious if a pever-hater killed pever. A pever-lover maybe?
Vote: YLC
He seems dodgy.
Vote: civplayah
We can't keep not lynching!
That's a rather WIFOM-y reasoning, I don't think we can make any assumptions about the kills at this time. It would be very easy for someone who voted for pever to kill him and then claim that the kill is obviously a setup against people who voted pever.
I'm actually more interested in the number of kills. Chaotix predicted there would be quite a lot of evil factions, yet 2 kills? With town split into a town and neutral camp, and the two kills being rather different, this could mean there are two evil factions.
Is it to do with his 'prescient' ability to say that lots of Venomians/Cornerians are voting for no lynch? The more I think I about it, the more I am starting to believe that YLC is devious enough to pretend to say this to draw out responses (which, er, only drew a response from me).
As for who to vote for... My instinct says that the killer is a player unfamiliar with with many of the players, and so killed randomly. (Well, killing DIY is quite... unexpected, if I was the killer, I would have chosen either a very high-profile player to remove a threat, or a medium-high poster, to allow myself to hide amongst the medium-low posters...)
Hence, I will Vote: landlubber
Vote abstain, I've never played a game this big before so I'll be cautious about it!
Vote: civplayah
There.
Kadagar_AV has been replaced by God Emperor.
Next slot will go to Death is Yonder.
Yeah pretty much. Your case reads as manufactured to me. You argue DiY's killer might be a newcomer based on the choice of DiY, but there's no reason to suspect that DiY's killer is working alone, so there's no real logic to the accusation. A whole paragraph to justify a content-free vote. That's scummy.
vote: CivPlayah
Just... really?
Choo choo! Aaaaaaaall aboard!
Vote: Civplayah
Jumping on board.
Unvote, Vote: Civplayah
Hmmmm I am not sure who to vote for at the moment so vote:abstain in case I miss the deadline to vote :P
Getting on this wagon, Vote: Civplayah
ANY CFCer WHO IS A JUNIOR MEMBER AND IS TICKED ABOUT NO PMing:
You may want to talk to TosaInu. He'll straighten it out for you. Ask about becoming a member, then you can PM.
Whatever, you can lynch me. vote:civplayah
The mob has spoken
Vote: Civplayah
Uhh... that's what I said.
I hate bandwagons, and need to get lurkers out of their hiding places. Come out, come out, where ever you are; Krill, Nictel, and White_eyes (just to name a few). No votes last phase, and not here yet this phase. Well Krill and Nictel are fairly new here so you get a break this time. But White_eyes you should know better.
Vote: White_eyes for now.
Vote: Renata. Do you not like to bandwagon because you fear being bandwagoned for bandwagoning, hmm? Well I tell you now that you deserve to be bandwagoned for that!:dizzy2:
Beefy hides and lets everyone else vow not to kill him, all the while him and WE are laughing behind a curtain.
Vote: Autolycus
For voting for Nictel, for not voting.
Vote: shlin28
You... deserve to die just for that?
Vote: civplayah
This is a bad lynch, but we gotta stop townies from accepting the lynch when they are townies. It's bad, understand? It stifles the discussion and allows teh mafiaz to hide easily.
If you change your vote, I'll change mine.
To others who directed comments toward me in some way...
Renata- You crazy, grrl.
TheFlax- Keep in mind it's quite probable we didn't see all of the kills last night. There could be mafia with investigative roles, some sort of kill limit, or another odd mechanic we don't know about. I expect about 4 kills max every night, besides vigilantes.
In fact, I can already predict WHO did those kills.
The red laser was Panther of Star Wolf, it's his signature weapon. That makes me think Star Wolf has one kill max to split between them.
The void was either Andross or the Unexpected Bad Guy, if there is one.
This is what I have.Quote:
