Star Fox- Lylat Wars [Concluded]

[Askthepizzaguy]

uh.... okay I just woke up. From a nap of some sort. And I believe I have everyone's night order, amazingly. That means I can get started on the writeup now.

Everyone else: YAY
Me: *siiiiggghhhhhhh*

This could take a while, don't wait up.

[wideyedwanderer]

^ I waited up all night last night...then I finally went to sleep.

[Choxorn]

Hmm, it's been 3 hours since he posted that, I wonder when the update will be?

[Joooray]

Yes, Atpg, I are you ready yet, are you ready yet, are you ready yet??

Come on, you can't keep us waiting that long.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Edit: Nevermind, done now.

Night Phase Seven

Sauria- Dinosaur Planet

_______________________










Joooray was flying her Cloud Runner over the planet Sauria, making certain the sky was free of all proton-antiproton missiles. She looked up and saw a distant object approaching from the sky.

Ahhh.... Krystal... the pleasure of meeting you is all mine. Such a shame I am going to have to kill you.


Joooray: Well you've got one thing right, the pleasure is all yours. But you're not taking me down today.

Krystal fired up her emergency booster engines and began flying down toward the surface. The Cloud Runner's only reserve Smart Bomb deployed, trailing behind her diving craft. Just before she hit the surface, she pulled up and headed for the Grandiose Canyon. The Smart Bomb impacted the surface, the blast catching the pursuing attacker's fighter craft by surprise. However the fighter emerged mostly unscathed.

Clever little Fox... but it will take more than one of those. All out of Smart Bombs?

Joooray: Maybe so, but I have a few surprises left.

Krystal cruised through Grandiose Canyon, pulling her craft through the sharp twists and turns of the mighty ancient canyon. At the fork in the dry riverbed ahead, she veered sharply to the left and traveled through a large ancient archway, and fired her twin blasters at the support structure. The entire thing collapsed a split second after she passed underneath. Her attacker saw the move coming and pulled up.

I'm still right behind you, and enjoying the view.

Joooray: What is it you want anyway?

Krystal took the brunt of a volley of plasma fire. Her ship, the Cloud Runner, was built with heavy shielding, and she simply did a Barrel Roll and her G-Diffuser system generated a directional deflector shield. The plasma bounced off of her shields and hit the canyon wall. She pulled her ship into a climb, followed closely by her attacker, and executed a vertical half loop. The Cloud Runner streaked back toward the ground, and she fired her twin lasers at the dusty ancient sand. The sand and the dust exploded from the impact, creating a large, thick dust cloud. Then she twisted her ship to the right and began flying back in the opposite direction, leaving her attacker to guess which direction she had flown.

Oh, I like this game, I like it. Let's play hide and seek.... you try and hide, and I'll seek you out every time.

Joooray: Get away from me, you creep!

Krystal pulled her craft out of the canyon and blasted toward a thick mass of a great jungle ahead. Her ship darted past ten-thousand year old trees that stood half a mile tall. The jungle is filled with massive saurian creatures. The ship on her tail continued firing red plasma at her, incinerating vegetation and killing animal life in the process. Krystal pulled up abruptly, and flew over the jungle and began performing barrel rolls to deflect the plasma fire. Her ship was still hit several times during these maneuvers.

Not quite good enough. Any last words?

Joooray: ......Go fox yourself?

Charming to the last. Did you learn that language in finishing school, princess?

Krystal piloted her craft toward the ancient ruins of some long-lost civilization, and flew directly into the temple, attempting to lose her attacker in the twisting maze of columns and tight corridors

What a fitting end to such a life... soon, this place will be quiet as a tomb.

Joooray: Oh great, a comedian. Where's the comically over-sized hook to yank this joker off the stage?

You're right. I've overstayed my welcome. Time for the curtain to fall.

Krystal's attacker fired at the ceiling in the central chamber, and then it started to collapse. The attacker swerved down a connecting corridor and left the temple altogether. Several tons of solid rock fell on top of Krystal's craft, crushing it instantly and causing the G-diffuser system to explode.

Joooray: Fox..... where are you.....

Bolse Defense Outpost

ArpeggiateTHIS flew in formation with other Cornerian Fighters, several kilometers away from the Bolse Defense Platform, just out of range of weapons fire from the platform. The Cornerian Fleet had returned from Macbeth, and was awaiting the order to attack. However, this was not to be.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Right in the center of the fleet, a massive buildup of graviton particles signaled that a tear in normal space was forming. The Fleet was ordered to break away, but Bill Grey saw proton-antiproton missiles emerging. They were heading straight for the Cornerian flagship. Swinging into action, Bill Grey moved toward the gravity well, and began blasting the missiles with his green-tinted twin blasters. However, this time something was different.... the missiles stopped emerging from the gravity well. Instead, the gravity well expanded rapidly in size, pulling Bill Grey's ship directly into the vortex. Stuck in Pi's fighter drifted inside, right along with him.

ArpeggiateTHIS: General Pepper! I'm being pulled inside the vortex! Blue 9 is trapped inside with me. Bulldog unit, cover the flagship. Husky unit, retreat to a safe distance.


Andross: Ha ha ha ha.... you can NEVER DEFEAT ME!!!!


ArpeggiateTHIS: Andross.... I should have known. Can't say I'm surprised. It will be my pleasure to personally take you down. Blue 9, cover me, I'm going in!


Andross: Those tin cans are no match for me....

Andross grabbed Stuck in Pi's vessel and tossed it OUT OF THIS DIMENSION.

ArpeggiateTHIS: Stuck in Pi! NOOOOOOOO!!! That's one of ours!!!


Andross: NOW you will feel TRUE pain....

Andross attempted to grab Bill Grey's ship, but it swiftly moved out of the way and began shooting Andross in the eyes.

Andross: AAAARRRGGGHHHH.....

Andross fired what appeared to be force lightning a stream of ionized particles at Bill Grey's ship, trapping him in the damaging storm.

Andross: You will die, just like your father....


ArpeggiateTHIS: What are you talking about? My father isn't dead. I'm Bill Grey.


Andross: Who?


ArpeggiateTHIS: Bill Grey. I'm more of an ancillary character. But I helped Fox out a couple of times. Also I can tell the good guys from the bad. I command the Husky and Bulldog squadrons. Come on, all the fans know who I am. I'm here to help!


Andross: WHAT? I reveal my awesomely unstoppable power, and all I get to crush is some loser who hasn't even starred in a game as a main character yet? DIE YOU PATHETIC LITTLE WORM!!!

Andross' robotic hands begin to transform into something else.... missile launchers. From out of these come a steady stream of proton-antiproton missiles. They swarm around Bill Grey's ship and begin to explode, crippling Bill Grey's vessel.

ArpeggiateTHIS: WOAH, Chill out man! You're totally harshing on my mellow!

Andross' robotic hands transform back, and they grab Bill Grey's ship and begin crushing it like tin foil.


ArpeggiateTHIS: Fox! Help......

Nightbringer needs to be scanned, his last post tweaked me to high heaven, contrived post.

Vote: Khazaar

[Joooray]

Well .... okay .... that sucks.
BTW: We haven't seen my killer for a while, if I remember correctly, makes me wonder if it might be a serial killer of some sort.

[ArpeggiateTHIS]

I just knew I'd die after revealing, and I told you that 2 people would die tonight!

Seems like it's back to the normal "your post appears scummy" routine for town. At least we cleared some people while still alive, eh?

[Beskar]

I just knew I'd die after revealing, and I told you that 2 people would die tonight!

Actually, I thought they would have killed Double A, in efforts to protect Khazaar. (If he was mafia)

Krystal dying was a blow to Team Star Wolf as well, she was one of our recruitables.
ie: The one I kept making appeals to, and I received no replies, hints or anything otherwise.

( @ Joooray )

[DELETE_THIS]

And throughout the universe furries screamed.. And where suddenly silenced..

Vote: johnhughthom Because clearly he is the emperor Andross :P

[Beskar]

Double A, how did the investigation go? If it magically failed, it counts as us going to lynch Khazaar too.

[Double A]

The only thing Khazar is guilty of is being neutral.

Nightbringer needs to be scanned, his last post tweaked me to high heaven, contrived post.

Vote: Khazaar

fos: Psycho for voting before results

[Beskar]

Alright then,

vote: Nictel for voting a member of Star Fox.


Also, is it possible for you to post your list of non-neutrals, Double A? (don't post neutrals, as it makes them confirmed innocents which the mafia will lynch)

[Double A]

Non neutrals?

The only one I scanned that isn't dead is wideyewanderer. Pretty sure he's a Cornerian though.

[Beskar]

Non neutrals?

The only one I scanned that isn't dead is wideyewanderer. Pretty sure he's a Cornerian though.

No problem, thank you. Looks like I already recorded that result from you too. 13 people are anonymous to me. 2 of those are Fox and Peppy, then 1 (or more, no clue) of mafia. The rest are Cornerians and Venomians, I am assuming. So roughly 10 townies we got to wade through to find the mafia.

[Joooray]

Actually, I thought they would have killed Double A, in efforts to protect Khazaar. (If he was mafia)

Krystal dying was a blow to Team Star Wolf as well, she was one of our recruitables.
ie: The one I kept making appeals to, and I received no replies, hints or anything otherwise.

( @ Joooray )

Yeah, I know. I tried recently to look scummy in order to get investigated. I'm really bad at innuendo or something similar in English, which is why I didn't know how to show I was Krystal apart from revealing, which I wanted to wait for until a later point or in case I was up for the lynch.

[Double A]

And if the mafia killed me instead of whoever else, it would frame Khazar, leading the town to waste a lynch on him.

Meaning the mafia is likely inexperienced. Or better at WIFOMS than Sasaki.

[Renata]

Pinman is in no way inexperienced.

[Beskar]

I think they thought you was protected.

[TheFlax]

Actually, I thought they would have killed Double A, in efforts to protect Khazaar. (If he was mafia)

Krystal dying was a blow to Team Star Wolf as well, she was one of our recruitables.
ie: The one I kept making appeals to, and I received no replies, hints or anything otherwise.

( @ Joooray )

Why do you imply both kills were mafia, when one is clearly revealed as Andross and the other is "???" ? Do we know this for certain?

[Renata]

We don't, though Beskar has been suggesting "both mafia" since round about day two, IIRC. Which players are on the non-andross kill list?

[TheFlax]

We don't, though Beskar has been suggesting "both mafia" since round about day two, IIRC. Which players are on the non-andross kill list?

By that, do you mean the kills which weren't caused by the Vortex + missiles or when Andross shows up?

[Renata]

Yeah.

[Joooray]

I am repeating myself here, but I find it odd that we didn't see my killer for a while. Either it is a quite inattentive player, Atpg being so happy about all orders being in might point to that, or it might be serial killer with some kind of trigger, e.g. me being the only one voting for john or something like that. Unfortunately I don't have time to check the thread for clues at the moment. All that seems certain is, that the character that killed me is anti-town, at least the write-up doesn't suggest anything otherwise.

[TheFlax]

Yeah.

N1: "???" kills pevergreen - Venomian Assault Force Fighter pilot
"Vortex" kills Death is Yonder - Cornerian Defense Fighter pilot

N2: "Vortex" kills Choxorn - Cornerian Defense Fighter pilot

N3: "???" kills Chaotix - Cornerian Defense Fighter pilot
"Vortex" kills Romanic - Falco Lombardi

N4: "Vortex" kills Yaropolk - Cornerian Defense Fighter pilot

N5: "Vortex" kills Romanic - Falco Lombardi
"???" kills God Emperor - Venomian Assault Force Fighter pilot

N6: "Vortex" kills Renata - Cornerian Defense Fighter pilot

N7: "???" kills Joooray - Krystal
"Vortex" kills ArpeggiateTHIS - Bill Grey

[landlubber]

Yep, it looks like a sort of serial killer role judging by the pattern.

[Death is yonder]

Nightbringer needs to be scanned, his last post tweaked me to high heaven, contrived post.

Vote: Khazaar

You seem to be absolutely sure about players recently. Perhaps I'm automatically biased, but I'm bound to recall where as a KMT Officer after you were killed, you very strongly advocated the lynch of certain individuals.

On the subject of Khazaar, did anyone scan him last night phase? Beskar? Whoever?

Additionally, I'm surprised that Joooray was killed after his behavior was termed by Secura (usually a source that people is likely listen to, and hence potential lynch bait) as suspicious.

Also, now we've established that Vortex/Big bad is indeed Andross, and it seems that ??? killer strikes only once per two rounds.

Vote: Yaseikhaan

Totally dropped off the radar, few posts here and there, then disappear near completely again (last post in this thread was over 72 hours ago), yet active in the forum. Probably lurking heavily.

[Renata]

Yep, it looks like a sort of serial killer role judging by the pattern.

I was actually wondering if it might be some sort of vigilante -- pevergreen's not an unreasonable pick for someone with a lot of ammo and neither is God Emperor, and Joooray was acting scummy. But Chaotix doesn't fit at first glance; what was he doing during day three?

And keep in mind I'm not really paying attention to the write-ups.

[pevergreen]

pevergreen's not an unreasonable pick for someone with a lot of ammo

I disagree. I should always be left alive, every time.
