Re: Nexus of the Future I - Floating Dreams of Riches - Day 1
Night #1 Ends
Like mice looking for cheese, various figures run through the corridors, and air vents look to complete goals. Some succeed, others are jammed, and others fall asleep bored.
Yet come morning, one fact holds true. Nobody has died!
Nobody funeral shall be held at 0900 hours.
At the funeral for Nobody, as everyone stood around the coffin capsule, words were said, heads were bowed, and little flowers were drapped over it.
With bagpipes playing, the coffin is fired off. Yet oddly enough, pingcode20 was attached to it! He is sucked out into the void of space to his death before anyone could react.
Due to a shortage of coffins one will not be wasted on pingcode20. Nor did he have anything of value on him.
Summary of Events:- Pingcode20 was auto-lynched per player request. His role has been reassigned.
- A secret role was activated
- Some roles were shifted
- Someone was jammed
- Some people gained items
Auctions!- Key to the Ship – 5G Starting Bid – Found on the ground near where Pwenet took a jump outside the ship, this key will allow you to every other night wander throughout the ship, looking whereever you please.
Effect: Every other day you get a free 100% accurate scry. - Cute little kitty - Like her cute little kitten who always followed her everywhere; even into death, this corpse gives you the ability to double your Day Points because you're so cute and irresistible.
Effect: Your vote counts double!
Day 2 Begins! Get your votes on!

Re: Nexus of the Future I - Floating Dreams of Riches - Day 1
Well that was more than a little weird. What are the chances of one person jamming another on the first night!
And what is all this shifting of roles. Obviously Pingcode20's role was shifted, but it said roleS. Who else got a role shift?

Re: Nexus of the Future I - Floating Dreams of Riches - Day 1
Lave Blister comes out of his quarters, yawning after just waking up. He's wearing stained underpants and an equally stained ancient Led Zepplin t-shirt. It seems to be covered in curry. He blinks in the light and does his best to take in the situation through his bleary red-rimmed eyes.
"God, what a night! I need a Bhuna and a lager, great way to start the day."
Lave Blister looks around and his gaze falls upon Frigs.
"Hey, do you's know where we keep the curry?"

Re: Nexus of the Future I - Floating Dreams of Riches - Day 1
In the main room where everyone is at, you all notice the sounds of something counting down. Looking around you notice a monitor on the wall playing the following scene from a movie. Strangely enough there is a strange echo effect, as if something in the room is also counting down at that very second.
Clicky for Movie that is Playing
At the point where the ship explodes, a REAL explosion takes place in the room, sending debris flying everywhere, but miraculously, nobody is killed, for he is already dead (Groans).
Picking through the debris, several of you find tiny bits of a homemade scanner that was apparently just recently used to scan someone. The timing of the scanner self-destructing and the movie that was playing just happened to be a freak coincidence.

Re: Nexus of the Future I - Floating Dreams of Riches - Day 1
Ok, managed to ignore it before, but add several units of alcohol, and...
Shouldn't that be Lave Dister?
Oh and what's with the home-made scanner? I thought they were only used during the day to scan someone who might be escaping lynching by using holographic thingamajigger.
I think I'm going to need a new spreadsheet format to track this game. Preferably something with a few extra dimensions.

Re: Nexus of the Future I - Floating Dreams of Riches - Day 1
This night was not a peaceful one for Rudy. Alcohol induced sleep didn't help his already severe nightmares, and this night they were especialy cruel. The quarrel with the french guy from previous guy didn't help, aliens speaking French and eating frogs and snails chasing him over the fields of second world war, shooting him with champagne bottle caps.
“If this doesn't improve soon I'll kill somebody. WHERE IS THAT STINKING FRENCH GUY!!! IT'S HIS FAULT, EVERYTHING IS HIS FAULT.!“
Just at that moment something beside him decided to explode and that was over the edge.
“All right, who's the wise guy? Better show himself out, that way I'll kill him soon. Otherwise, the torture is something he isn't getting away from!“
He then spots the souvenir seller.
“I smell a fox here. Not an ordinary fox even. It's a PhantomFox, one of the rarest species of foxes know to men. One of most dangreous even. I remember hunting one of them, way back when they weren't exinted. Took me five months to catch it. Bugs Bunny was nothing compared to them. Keep him away from me. KEEP HIM AWAY FROM ME!!“

Re: Nexus of the Future I - Floating Dreams of Riches - Day 1
Vavaara is wandering aimlessly around the room, contemplating the death of Pingcode20, when the explosion tears through the room. Jumping up slightly, her curious nature takes over and shef sifts through the debris of the home-made scanner, looking for anything useful. While doing this, she overhears Mordokai talking about killing innocent foxes, and she moves towards him. "Where do you's get off killin' inn'cent aminals, mistah!" She is distracted during her tirade, however, when she spots an insanely cute item up for auction. "Oooh... 4 GC for teh cat!"

Dewey looks offended at Mordokai's accusation.
I may be a Vulpinian, but I assure you that I have no evil intentions. Buisness is my game, and dead customers don't give buisness. Please, stop scaring away the customers. But soon I'll have "I survived the alien attack" shirts ready for selling! Do you want one RadikalSkippy? We got lots of stuff to help you boast about your incipant survival of this hopefully short lived tragedy.

MK approached the vulpine souvenir seller from behind, though not with any intentional attempt to sneak up on him or anything of the sort. "You... take an odd advantage of this sort of thing, you know..." He stated, looking at PhantomFox. "Not entirely sure what to think, except... maybe, should I survive, I'll buy some of those wares. Maybe."

Fullbladder turns his tangents upon Mordokai.
"Ye've just seen your own planet pummeled to dust and you turn to killing off what is possibly the last of one our world's beautiful creatures?! By the Crab, man! Are you daft? These genetic structures must be maintained, for future generations to enjoy--if there are any, that is. I'm still certain we're all going to die.
"Sure, lad, the Merchant Fox is undoubtably one of Nature's greatest blunders, but if Mankind is any indication, blunders are to be cherished, not slaughtered! You, sir, a cad! Have some pride for your mother planet!
"Refugees, the lot of us. No longer should we seperate ourselves between Frenchman, Englishman, American or even Fox. We are merely Earthling now."
His tangent derailed by his own shifting mind, Fullbladder turns away and places the fingertips of one hand against the window, staring into the abyss beyond.Last edited by Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins; 2007-12-21 at 10:22 PM.

Re: Nexus of the Future I - Floating Dreams of Riches - Day 1
The "3rd post in a bandwagon" theory was neatly exploited in a recent game where the bad guys started lots of successful bandwagons.
So I'm pointing at Shishnarfne for starting this one against Frigs. By the same token I was considering pointing at Emporer Demonking, but the Frigs bandwagon is bigger and hence more suspicious.

Re: Nexus of the Future I - Floating Dreams of Riches - Day 1
So, your logic seems to say that because people are following my completely random point, I am more likely a WW? Wouldn't this be suspiciously early for them to try to follow this point?
I'll agree with standard bandwagon logic that the assembly of this bandwagon makes it less likely that Frigs IS a WW, but I don't see how it follows that I am more likely to be one. However, some of the people following me might see this as a more convenient one... And why notRadikalskippy, who others were pointing at earlier?
Edit: Removed point, it would be too suspicious now, and I don't really think RS is more likely to be an Alien... I don't have data, so I guessed, and as this is day 2, and no night kill, that's really all that I can do.Last edited by Shishnarfne; 2007-12-22 at 09:53 AM.

Monsieur Légume Pourri plays a bit with his moustache before waving his hand dismissively at Libenji25.
"I haven't seen the guy with the baseball cap since he stepped on this ship. At least, I think he wore a baseball cap..."
"Anyway! Until we get more evidence, I'll point at that suspicious fellow. If I'm right you'll all be like 'Oh you're just like that Poirot fellow!' and then I'll be like 'no, the name is Pourri. Légume Pourri."
The strange Frenchman walks away chuckling quietly to himself before bidding 8GC on the key of the ship.Spoiler
