Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie Mafia IN SPACE [Concluded]

Unfortunately I really needed at least 30 players at the bare minimum to start the Unova Rising game. There are too many power roles to play it as is, it would throw the balance out of whack. But don't worry, I will be re-hosting at a time when there are more active players in the Gameroom.

So without further ado, I am changing this game to my secondary concept:

Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie Mafia IN SPACE!

Including Pirates, Ninjas, Robots, Zombies and Pirate Ninja Robot Zombies.

And Mafia. And it's all... IN SPACE!

See, I can make some very self-explanatory game titles.

Since this is technically not the game you signed up for, I'm sending out confirmation PMs to everybody to make sure they are still in the game. I know some people said they only wanted to play the Pokemon game, so I'll respect that.

This is mostly a vanilla game. There's an interesting setup, but beyond that you won't really see anything as crazy as Pokemon duels to the death.

For this game, general mafia rules apply.

-Private communication is allowed for living players.
-Private and public reveals are allowed for living players.
-Dead players may not reveal, and may not communicate privately
-No screenshots, chatlogs, or tactics that break the spirit of the game, etc.
-Vote: Abstain is allowed.
-Vote: No Lynch is NOT allowed.
-Votes may not be edited into posts.
-Any players inactive for more than three day phases continuously or five day phases total are subject to the Wrath of SPACE. If outside circumstances are to blame, contact me beforehand and there may be a solution.
-Have fun, obviously.

First.

Well...

Archie and Sharpedo.

These are my demands.

Sure.

Is this actually happenning? A Pokemon based mafia game? Then my prayers to Mew have not gone unanswered! I will play. And if possible, I would like a salamance...

Count me In!

In

but if you will replace this game with other one, I am no longer in it

So, you think you can be the best pokemon trainer of all time?

Yeah, right. You picked the fire pokemon? What a lame-o. I'll just pick the water pokemon. And I won't even beat you with water attacks. I'll teach it Earthquake and beat you even faster, just for the lulz.

So, you finally caught your first pokemon? Good for you! Except I already have five more, and they're all exactly the right type to turn your little weedle into bug splat. And I will, because they're all ten levels higher than yours. Better start grinding, lame-o!

Ready for that first badge? Well don't worry, I softened up the gym leader for ya. And I got the badge way before you, slo-mo!

Need to get your wounded, poisoned pokemon into a center for healing? Too bad! I challenge you and your last remaining pokemon to a duel. Better start using up all your potions!

Got a crush on that Misty girl? Too bad! She likes to ride on my motorbike. She wouldn't be caught dead with you and your little "bicycle", lame-o.

Think your new pokemon is pretty tough? I challenge you to a duel, and I'mma just use my level 3 Abra and I'll still beat you.

I could beat you with my magikarp, because you're that much of a noob! I could beat your team of legendary birds just by spamming Splash!

I've defeated Mewtwo with a Chansey using bide! I've beaten Mewtwo using ACTUAL BUG pokemon! My Parasect will own you with Spore!

I don't even use pokemon besides Generation I, using only generation I techniques! Come and get me with your Rayquaza, I'll still own it with my Wartortle that knows Ice Beam.

That's right, Wartortle. I could evolve it, but I'd rather troll you with less evolved forms.

I've got every badge, and I've already completed my Generation I pokedex. I've beaten every boss and bagged every babe. I am the greatest pokemon trainer of all time. You ready for the Elite Four? I've already pwnt them with a Caterpie. You think you're ready for me? You're not even ready for training pants.

You mad, bro? Even if you were to beat me every single time, everyone already knows I'm a billion times better than you are. Maybe I'm just letting you think you're better than me, so that when you finally face me after your several-months-long Nuzlocke Challenge, for the title of Pokemon Champion, I will paste you with the same Pokemon that you've always been able to defeat, just to burn you even harder. When you black out for the first time, it won't be the last. Too bad you'll have to start your entire run over again!

I am Gary :daisy: Oak. Remember that name. That is the name of your GOD.

Smell you later!

Oh, good. I was hoping I would get a volunteer.

Didn't I tell you? Gary is a Joker role in this game, the only way for him to win is to lose every single battle to his rival. Just like the games!

A brief introduction, as I imagine these relate to this game-

Essentially, pokemon are trained monsters which are stored in little devices known as "pokeballs". A trainer commands his or her pokemon during duels with other trainers. The trainer is usually allowed up to six different monsters per duel, usually only one monster is allowed to duel another, but there is a version where you can duel 2 versus 2 and so on.

The first thing you should know about pokemon is that the premise here is largely rock paper scissors. Pokemon have different "elements" or types. Example:

• Fire beats Grass, Grass beats Water, Water beats fire.

As such, no one type has a dominating advantage. And there is more than three types of pokemon. There are a couple dozen different types. There's a type chart which allows you to see the various match-ups. Already posted in the OP, but let's continue-

Type advantage is not necessarily enough. If your pokemon is particularly strong or experienced, it will be able to endure the disadvantages of type differences in poor matchups and be able to defeat rivals which would ordinarily defeat them. This is usually because the opposing pokemon is not experienced enough, or is a particularly fragile breed of pokemon.

There is more than one species of pokemon per "type". There are many different fire pokemon, for example. Some are considered much stronger than others due to base stats such as attack, defense, special attack, special defense, hit points, and so on.

The game gets more complex than that, but as this game is a mafia game, much of that will likely not be simulated in this mafia game.

The most you will likely care to know is the current level of your pokemon (as covered in the OP) and the type, which will likely be all that is simulated during our match-ups in this game, or at least, the most information that we will be privy to.

Also, of interest is that pokemon of one type may be able to learn moves of another type, for example, Fire beats Ice pokemon, but the Ice pokemon may be able to use a Water type attack, and if the Ice pokemon is stronger or faster than the Fire type, the Ice type (normally at disadvantage) will win easily.

I do not know if this aspect will be simulated. But the game will likely not be as straightforward as Fire Beats Ice.

Also, as this is a mafia game, in all probability, you can win the game without knowing a thing about pokemon, assuming we simply lynch the anti-town parties.

Since outright lynching requires a stupidly massive bandwagon in this game, and will also cut down on the fun of dueling, and also eliminate advantage (if any) of dueling to raise our experience, I might suggest thinking of this as a mafia-pokemon hybrid game rather than straight mafia. I'll be interested in who I think is scummy but honestly, that's not all we might discuss in a given round.

I would offer my opinion that the anti-town parties in this game will be armed with legendaries, or something similarly strong, to enable them to withstand a typical duel. But, I would also opine that the town will have a few gym leaders/elite four type people who are simply really strong trainers. Having really impressive pokemon is interesting but, I would hope, not necessarily render someone guilty.

I bet the game host will have more accurate information than I would, but as he's hosting, would need to be impartial with his answers and may not be able to answer all your questions. I've played a game of the pokemans or two, and yes, I've thumped a level 100 Mewtwo with things like a Chansey or a bug pokemon, so my level of skill is not novice.

Mewtwo was the Big Bad pokemon of the first game(s). Its stats were higher than all other pokemon in most categories and could single-handedly thump most any team of six, including legendary pokemon, simply due to its very fast speed and almost unbeatable special attack and defense, and not too shabby defense. It could also learn most any move.

Beating a level 100 mewtwo with any single generation I pokemon is extremely difficult.

Unless you like to cheese with the one-hit-KO almost never hits the target attacks, and just restart the battle until you manage to hit it. In which case, you pokesuck.

thanks Pizza. That is very helpful :bow:

I played BattleTech, hoes

Methinks it's time to send out invites.

:sad:

I sent out at least 150 invites on Saturday, to everyone on the invite list as well as everyone who was in Capo IV.

If even a quarter of them had responded, I'd have enough to start right now. Unfortunately, it seems the Org has hit a slow period, and even the Gameroom is taking a hit because of it. I'll wait till Sunday, and if we've still made no significant progress till then, I'll switch to the secondary game and wait for a more active period to host Unova Rising. The show must go on, after all.

Try advertising on CFC and TWC. I have a link in my sig on all three sites but I'm not too sure how much good that will do.

Maybe advertise at some pokemon fan-sites?

I am so keen for pokemon mafia! Sign me up please

I will join, but like some I have never played Pokemon.

I played Mewtwo's Retribution, which was a lot of fun. So definitely in.

IN if you are still accepting signups. ~:flirt:. Thank you for the invite.

Unfortunately I really needed at least 30 players at the bare minimum to start this game. There are too many power roles to play it as is, it would throw the balance out of whack.

So without further ado, I am changing this game to my secondary concept:

Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie Mafia IN SPACE!

Including Pirates, Ninjas, Robots, Zombies, and Pirate Ninja Robot Zombies.

And Mafia. And it's all... IN SPACE!

See, I can make some very self-explanatory game titles.

Since this is technically not the game you signed up for, I'm sending out confirmation PMs to everybody to make sure they are still in the game. I know some people said they only wanted to play the Pokemon game, so I'll respect that.

Yeah, I'm up for some Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie Mafia in Space. Hopefully Unova Rising can be played in the near future.

Chaotix, maybe some details?
Will there be teams/sides other than mafia/town? would there be reveal at death? any special, complicated mechanic?

Oh, I haven't seen this before. In

I am usually loathe to explain too much of my games, as I like them to be a surprise for all players involved.

I can tell you that there will be reveal upon death. It will make the write-ups more fun.

As for the other two questions: I'm gonna have to respectfully say no comment. Maybe there is, maybe there isn't, and maybe it's somewhere in between.

Still in.

I'm still here

Fluffy, I don't mind meme images, but try to keep them a reasonable size. This one was ridiculously large for a forum thread. - Chaotix

Oh, God, what has happened?!?!?! AHHHHHH!!!

In other news, if I am to die in this game, may I request it is somehow connected to the video I posted?
Perhaps I go the way of the Martians....

Still in

Still in, despite not enough awesome.

I PLAY

Alright, I think it's about time to get this game started. I'm just going to include the stragglers in the game because I'm a mod and I can do that. :clown:

(If anybody's actually concerned, there will be plenty of time for them to back out if they actually want to.)

I'm gonna start the roles and the opening write-up, randomize everything, and we'll get everything started in an hour or so.

Yay! :bounce:

Just don't make me a pirate. There is conclusive proof of their inferiority.

D'oh.
If I put that pic in spoilers, would that have bee good?
Also, YAY PLAYTIME

Quite a long hour! :stare:

DAY 1

Thematic Music Link

The sun was shining on the Good Ship [To Be Named]. Actually, statistically speaking the sun was always shining on the Good Ship [To Be Named], or at least this sun out in the unknown star system they were sailing through was. The Captain was very skilled at his trade, and rarely flew behind the eclipse of a planet.

Meteors, however, were another story. In fact, this time the Captain flew so close behind the eclipse of this particular meteor that he scraped up the side of his ship pretty badly and blew a few poor Space Cadets out the new window into space before the airlocks closed down.

But after a minor accident like that, the crew was very efficient. They only lost seven more Space Cadets to open space before they realized the job of fixing the hull would be easier with their space suits on and got the job done. One of the Space Cadets still floated a little too far away from the ship and got left behind, but at least his body wouldn’t explode from the extreme lack of pressure. He would get to enjoy the rest of his life enraptured in the wonders of space, and who wouldn’t want that?

It was after the hull was fixed that the trouble really started. One day, not long afterward (in fact, it was all the same day because the sun never set), a dead Space Cadet turned up in the middle of the ship, dead. It looked as if he had been shot multiple times with both laser beams and bullets, and his head had been sliced clean off his neck. But most curious of all was that the severed head had been cracked open and was missing all of its brains.

The Captain, of course, could not abide such pointless loss of life. He quickly called his entire crew to the Good Ship [To Be Named]’s Meeting and Bingo Room. As was expected, most of the Space Cadets were disappointed when they found out it was a Meeting they were gathered for and not Bingo, but that did not deter the Captain in the slightest.

“Listen up, Cadets! Today one of your fellow crewmates was found dead, inside the Good Ship [To Be Named]! This cannot be allowed to pass unpunished. We must find the ones resp-”

“What time today? Are we talking before the hull was torn open, or after we fixed it, or sometime in between?”

All the Space Cadets murmured in confusion. Indeed, this was a point of vagueness that must be addressed!

“What are you talking about? That rather misplaced meteor tore open the hull weeks ago! As I was saying, we must find the ones resp-”

“Actually, it’s technically all been the same day since the sun hasn’t set yet.”

All the Space Cadets began to murmur again in agreement. It was perfectly logical.

“That doesn’t even make any sense!”

Exasperated, the Captain saw he was about to lose his audience. Another few minutes like this and they might as well be playing Bingo.

Fine! Fine. It was later today, after the hull had already been repaired. Now, as I was saying before I was interrupted, we must find the ones resp-”

“Hey, can we name the ship today? I think we should name the ship.”

“The ship already has a name. It’s the Good Ship [To Be Named]. Not the name I would have chosen for it, but I wasn’t in command when they painted the letters on the side.”

“That’s not the name of the ship! That’s just the spot where you’re supposed to paint the name once you decide on it!”

“Oh, really? Why didn’t anybody tell me about that? Well, I agree, naming the ship is much more important than whatever I was talking about before. Let’s all vote on a name today, and once we decide I’ll send someone out to paint it on the side.”

“But won’t the person who goes out float away and get lost in space?”

“Of course not! I’ll just turn on the space gravity, and the lucky Cadet will go out in his Spacesuit with a can of Space Paint, and get the job done in no time at all! And then after that we can all play Bingo!”

All the Space Cadets cheered and danced with joy.

“Just to be clear, you’re going to vote on both the name of the ship, and the person who gets to go out and paint it. Now, get to work, all of you!”

The Space Cadets quickly set to their new task. Getting to name the ship and play Bingo, all in the same day that they tore the hull open on a meteor and then fixed it? This was shaping up to be the best day ever.

----------------------

You heard the man! Start voting for what you want the ship to be called while I pass out your bingo cards, Cadets.

After you've got those, you can start voting on who gets to paint the ship, too.

The ship shall be named the Galactic Chutzpah, to carry on the glorious, nonsensical tradition of our pirate ninja robot zombie spacemen forefathers of using obscure adjectives as nouns when naming ships.

The ship shall be named: Elvis the Wonder Ship

The Unholy Ark.

Name: Min-Uroikas

Attention Cadets! All Bingo Cards have been passed out. If you're not a Space Cadet, it would be nice of you to kindly return your Bingo Card. We only have enough for all the Cadets here, and if you've got one, then you're depriving a poor Space Cadet of his rightful card. Besides, I'm sure you must have your own sort of wacky non-Space Cadet Bingo Card already anyway.

If for some reason, you don't have a Bingo Card, they all look like this:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

You are a Space Cadet!

Yes, but a simple Space Cadet, living his life on the Good Ship [To Be Named], out on the open space. That is you. You love space. You love everything about space. And why not, what’s not to love about space? It’s big, it’s empty, and above all it’s SPACE. And that’s all there really is to say on the matter.

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.

So you can make your own. Pick out the numbers yourself, you all know what they look like.

Please note that my Bingo Card will look more fancy than yours. This is because I forgot to turn on the Color and Bold settings on the Space Printer when I made them.

Oh, and you can all get voting on the lucky painter as well.

EDIT: And the Voting will end exactly 24 hours from this message. If I can find my atomic space clock, I'll set it up for reference.
