    Default BuffyVerse Mafia: Apocalypse Now [Concluded]


    Buffyverse Mafia: Apocalypse Now

    This will be a high-conversion game in the tradition of Lylat Wars here and War of Hyrule over on TWCenter.
    Days and nights will be 24 hours and will take the rough narrative form of Episodes, with a Buffy "Episode" ending each day and beginning each Night and an Angel "Episode" doing the reverse. Roles will be revealed on death, but not Team. Every Role will be a part of a Team and resident in a Location, either L.A. or Sunnydale for most. Teams will be Innocent teams, Mafia teams, or possibly something else. The Victory condition for all Innocent Teams is: eliminate all members of Mafia Teams. Other team VC's will be rigorously defined in Role PMs. This should all be clearer after I do the first Intro post, i.e. the Buffy Pilot, which will contain a complete innocent Role PM.

    Important Game Information,
    As usual, this information may or may not be relevant to tonight, but I realized should be publically available.
    Phase end will always be 10 pm Eastern unless I specify differently, regardless of my being around. Phases are about 24 hours, unless I specify otherwise.
    For gameplay reasons, vampires will not be mentioned as turning to dust, i.e. people may turn to dust upon death, but I won't be telling you that.
    Scans occur after conversions.
    Role-blocks do not appear in the phase posts.
    Successful Conversions do not appear in the phase posts.
    New seasons begin with the Buffy epsiode following an episode in which a team is exterminated. That is the only indication of teams being eliminated.
    No quoting PMs from me,
    the Dead may not send or receive PMs, write in QTs, or reveal external to thread information (i.e. scan results or older PMs)
    This includes making any claims about who you were or were not in contact with, WHETHER OR NOT they claim in the thread to have been in contact with you. Rule of Thumb, if you're in doubt, don't post it.
    If alive, you may send messages, create QTs, whatever you please as long as you don't quote me. I do appreciate being kept in the loop on out-of-thread communication, though.
    There is some variation in format of Role PMs, so don't rely on small irregularities to give you hints.
    You are always welcome to PM me questions or post them here. I may choose to not give you an answer, I may even choose not to respond at all. You have been warned.

    I am looking for 40 players. Please bear with me, as this is the largest game I have run.

    Buffy Pilot Episode: Summers Time

    Scene opens, Buffy is talking with Willow and enjoying a nice picnic lunch. She looks up, and does a double-take, as a look of concern crosses her face.

    Buffy: Autolycus, what are you doing here? Don't you live in L.A.?

    Autolycus: Can't I come down to visit you every once in a while without permission? I brought some of your old friends to visit, too. They were very ... persuasive

    A bunch of teens come around the corner, laughing. Then they attack Autolycus and start biting him. Buffy defeats them, and goes to check on Autolycus, who is lying on the ground, bleeding copiously.

    Autolycus: What's wrong ... with your generation ... First you burn down the gym, then your friends make me drive them to see you and what happens, they bite my legs off. You .... always .... were a disappointment to me.



    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

    Autolycus was Hank Summers!

    Normally, that's all you'd get, but here's a full role PM for him.
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

    Role: Hank Summers
    Team: Summers Men (Innocent)
    Location: Sunnydale
    Ability: To die for the purposes of plot exposition
    Personal Objective: Die at the time when your daughters most need you
    Background: You started out as a pretty decent Dad. Then, you divorced your wife when one of your daughters (or was that your only daughter) was going through the biggest change of her life. At least you still visited her occasionally. Until you went gallivanting off to Spain, that is. Die, Chauvinist Pig, Die!!

    Link to Wiki:http://buffy.wikia.com/wiki/Hank_Summers


    Notes: The Primary two innocent faction teams are the same as the two main locations, L.A. and Sunnydale. The one indication you will get of Teams is that a new Season of both Buffy and Angel will start every time a faction is wiped out, starting with Buffy. Since Hank Summers was the only Summers Man, the next Buffy episode will be Season 1, Episode 1, and the Angel Episode after next will also be Season 1, Episode , regardless of whether another faction gets wiped out in it.

    That means don't claim your roles privately. Forming networks based on role reveals or other similar information will be game losing for the innocent team.

    Loose lips cause "OH "s.

    I think he played a character pretending to be a big momma.
    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    No that was Martin Lawrence.

    The best movie he's done in the past 20 years (Eddie Murphy) is Life IMO, with Martin Lawrence.

    His 80's films are epic win though.

    I have not been keeping up with my Eddie Murphy movies, then. I can't recall any of those.

    One joke and it got way out of hand, just like much of his movies.
