[Abel isn’t a lizardman at the moment, Xan. More like a scientist-type old guy. Perhaps edit to reflect this, please.]

I was planning on doing something like that anyway, but sure.

[By the way, in case nobody’s figured it out yet, I’m waiting for Gambi to figure out the results of Jennifer trying to get the pilot’s mental signature. If she does, assume she has him crash the plane away from anyone else.]

I roll my eyes, then return to facing the woman.

When I say ‘ragdoll’, I mean an actual ragdoll, with the GMod ragdoll physics. Not stop-motion-animated characters.

EDIT: A lot like the ragdolls in this. When they’re not being maneuvered in a realistic fashion, that is.

Topic: Forum Games / [Signups] The Sandman's Grave.

Nine would be GMod ragdoll. If that helps.

Nothing else to fire at. Unless we want to hit both Conglacior and Lucinda.

Knowledge is no substitute for muscle memory. That is, I can teach you how to fly a plane, but you’d still probably crash it, given that you’ve never flown a plane before. In any case, I have a better plan, but I need to concentrate to get it right…
I redouble my efforts to find the flyer’s mental signature. If I can just get them and those of any copilots, I can knock him unconscious and crash the plane with ease…

As we get closer to the building, the conversation simultaneously returns to English and grows more heated, almost becoming a confrontation of sorts. For the moment, I only hear the voice of another woman… this is going to be awkward, if I charge in uninvited.
‘Vell, Cain?’ I whisper. ‘Vould you like to lead ze vay?’

[First of all, wrong subject matter; second, kindly stop talking about a subject we’ve already discussed.]

Conglacior Solus
Ah. Lucinda is helping out there too. That’s useful… I land near her, and help with the destruction. Unlike her, the soldiers have no compunctions about firing at such a large target as myself at such close range.
Unlike her, though, I am practically immune to small arms, both melee and projectile. Although she does have her armour, which is good enough to keep her alive, anyway. Regardless, I mostly focus my efforts upon those setting up the artillery – keeping them from firing is the main priority, methinks.

Topic: Forum Games / The City of Rae. [Sign Ups.]

Name: Richard “Stroke” Johnson
Age: 36
Gender: Male
Long-Ranged Weapon: Disk Cannon – A large, cuboid-looking weapon designed by Stroke and built from destroyed robot parts; uses a coilgun design to accelerate 100g disks to a speed of around 600m/s in less than a metre at a rate of roughly two per second, which, whilst not as fast as the average gunpowder-launched bullet, are significantly more deadly due to a much heightened momentum, as well as being practically silent to boot. However, the weapon itself is somewhat heavy, and the ammunition, whilst reusable, does need to be picked up again, since making new ammo takes a relatively long while with current availability of forging techniques.
Melee Weapon: A trusty Sharpened Steel Bar. With a sharp point, no less.
Appearance: Caucasian; brown hair; green eyes; slender figure; 1.85m tall. Usually wears a grey tank top with a blue denim jacket on top, form-fitting black denim jeans, a red bandana with white patterns on it, black leather shoes and grey socks. Left side of face sags ever so slightly, thanks to a telepathic mutant having mentally simulated the effects of a massive stroke upon him.

[But lasers! Come on, man. Also, what cover?]

Solaris Embarta
Whuh-oh. I find myself moving behind whatever cover I can find. Really, though, that isn’t much cover, given that we’re in the middle of what is essentially a flat area.

Jennifer Embarta
Well, physical methods didn’t seem to work. Let’s see if I can’t target the pilot’s mental signature instead… I attempt to do so, with the intent of knocking him unconscious if I succeed.

Conglacior Solus
I suppose it’s now my job to deal with the plane, even if said job is likely to be suicidal. Launching myself into the air leaves no hints on where said plane might be… it does help me locate some artillery that’s being set up nearby, however. That being said, I reckon I could cement the safety of the group more effectively by dealing with them rather than the plane. I promptly begin heading over to said artillery group, in order to wreak as much havoc as is possible upon them.

[Please, PLEASE don’t kill off Solus, Gambi. It’s just that to me, that seems like the kind of action you’d have him killed off for… he’s aiming for prevention of a separate threat, as opposed to being a target for the plane. And really, what kind of cover is a semi-adolescent dragon capable of taking in a destroyed city, anyway?]

[EDIT: Actually, I may or may not have access to the internet for a few days, since I’m not going to be home after mid-morning or something on Saturday. Similar situation to coolo, except I’ll probably be back sooner than him.]

[EDITEDIT: Make that “not going to be home any time between Saturday today and Saturday next week”. >_>]

[Okay.]

Solaris Embarta
‘Woah, crap!’
I proceed to laser the crap out of the fighter jet from nowhere. That is to say, I remove its wings from its body via lasers, causing it to plummet to the ground like a small missile. It certainly explodes like one, anyway.
‘Everyone alright?’

Conglacior Solus
’I’m fine.’

Jennifer Embarta
Second.

…oh? I can hear Spanish coming from a nearby building… panicked Spanish, no less. Motioning to Cain to follow, I head towards the general location of the noise.

[Also, have some more Legioning.]

Legion
The city of Berlin is now lifeless… almost. A mere six hundred sapients survive within – more than enough for genetic diversity, should they all choose to remain within the city, but small enough a group that none of them could pose a threat to us. Surprisingly, only fifty mutants are present in the city. We presume this is due to predisposed hatred enacted outwards by the first several hundred souls we absorbed, amongst other scattered NUO forces within the city. That will fix itself with further absorption of souls. Regardless, all of them are clustered within the city centre – observing us with looks of combined terror and hatred, frequently both in the same expression.
Our time to assume full control is now.
We are your master now. Know that soon, we shall hold command over all beings, no matter what power they hold. Your souls are forfeit to us, one way or the other; should you choose to try and stop our conquest, be it via direct or indirect methods, we will take from your our rightful possessions immediately. Should you remain put, you may live until we choose you for consumption. If you are lucky, you may even see the end of your mortal lives in a more natural manner than what we have in store for you. Now, farewell.
We dissipate, and head to our next location.

Pure anti-gravity would be particularly overpowered, seeing as it’d allow for flight; among other things. The awkward movement is mostly assumed for a puppet, so I don’t know what you’re going for; unless it’s just a munchkin episode.

I was actually going for “even more awkward than a normal Puppet”. Like, on an awkwardness scale of 1-10, a normal puppet would be, say, 6 or so, whilst a Puppet with Antigrav Syndrome would be 9 at the least.

Topic: Forum Games / [Signups] The Sandman's Grave.

BC, no anti-gravity.

BOOOOOOOO.
…why not?

Topic: Forum Games / [Signups] The Sandman's Grave.

Oh, whatever. I’ll just make a new character, then.

Name: Jeredah Jeredah Jeredah
Race: Puppet
Age: 999
Favored Weapon: Antigrav Syndrome – Afflicted with a rare puppet disease caused by the misapplication of the magic that animates them, accidentally or otherwise, the already-awkward body of the afflicted puppet – in this case, Jeredah Jeredah Jeredah – loses most of its ability to enact precise motion (“precise” here meaning just about anything that requires less than ten centimetres of movement per second). However, the spell in question now affects their entire body, allowing them to practically ignore gravity, and generally act like a GMod ragdoll during any given activity, including combat.
Secondary Weapon: Multiple knives carved from Jeredah’s own body after his creation, and thus similarly affected by the spell animating him.
Description: Essentially a steel mannequin with all bodily joints present in a human replicated. Whilst usually wrapped in enough randomly-coloured cloth to make his body all but invisible, to be used as a rudimentary “telepath” disguise, removing these will reveal several marks on his torso and head that, with appropriate placement, his knives will fit into exactly, including two where his eyes would be, both point-upwards.
Bio: Jeredah Jeredah Jeredah was designed primarily for combat purposes, afflicted with Antigrav Syndrome, a practically non-existent personality, and only a partial link to the Puppet Queen, to be used for this purpose specifically. Before the removal of magic from the lands, this went well for him. After multiple centuries worth of inactivity and lack of instruction from the Queen, though, he sort of lost it upon revival. On the brink of insanity, a mishmash of partial personalities began to emerge in an effort to bring him back, and, to some extent, succeeded. However, he now has a mishmish of partial personalities within his body. Because that’s going to end well, isn’t it?

So you can predict human behavior now? Well, why don’t we just hail you and call you the second coming of Freud.

In controlled circumstances, human behaviour is semi-predictable. See: mafias. Also, never compare me to Freud again. Freud was a hack.

Would have been nice if you had actually said that when you made the vote. Now it just looks like you’re trying to cover your tracks.

So you’d like me to change the past, then. Yes, I’ll go and do that. Be right back, guy who doesn’t even remember me changing the past because he got changed to a different timeline with it.

Just because something is frequent doesn’t make it any less suspicious.

Bandwagoning happens more frequently in non-suspicious circumstances than otherwise. And it’d still happen, regardless of how suspicious it was.

Solid proof simply doesn’t exist (barring a cop investigation, which still isn’t foolproof, because of cop sanities and roles that give false results upon inspection). Mafia is fundamentally about probability—nothing is certain, but you have to go with something anyway.

Does this game contain cop sanities? I wouldn’t have thought so, because there’s only a single cop present. Nor do any obfuscating roles exist, so far as I am aware; therefore, one can assume that evidence the cop gains here will be truthful.

Blending in is a classic scum technique, and is something the town shouldn’t strive to do. If you really want to help the town, stand out, be bold with your accusations, and don’t go along with the group. In other words, do what Vara’s doing.

Everyone’s still going to do it, you understand. Sheeple Syndrome, and so on.

Topic: Forum Games / Chocolate Mafia [No Chocolate Involved] DAY THREE

No, I haven’t. I explained in my previous post what the difference is and why it’s not hypocrisy. You’re clearly ignoring it.

And you, madam, are clearly ignoring what I said. Reread:

I agree with Zzzip. The reckless accusations, whilst they are frequently mere mislaid accusation, may as well be a death sentence in any given mafia. I also vote for cazdingo1995.

At no point in those sentences did I give any indication that I desired cazdingo’s lynching purely because I wanted him gone. I did state that Zzzip’s logic was fairly sound, on the basis that caz was giving off large numbers of mafia signals, and I did also state that an overreaction on his part would be the end for caz, which it was, thanks to the logic of people playing mafias in general, which tends to be something along the lines of “he’s voting randomly, so HE MUST BE THE MAFIA GUY” and so on; however, if you’ll observe my vote, I never gave an official reason for it. That is to say, I could have voted him for any reason I liked – potentially because it was a reckless vote, but also, potentially, because he actually seemed like a mafia member to me at that point in time. Which he did.

And I defended it; it isn’t hypocrisy.
Mind telling why it’s hypocrisy? You should read my defense post. There’s a clear difference.

Mind telling me what the difference is? You voted for me for (supposedly) the same reason I voted for someone else; apparently, though, I’m the one to blame because you’re higher up the line of finger-pointing than me.

Indeed. There are four mafia members, so it will be bought upon me at least four times.

Thank you, Vara, for that obvious attempt at implied accusation. I shall now proceed to disregard it completely, on the grounds that it has no basis.

If you actually read my defense post, or actually my initial post, you’d see that I’m not voting you because you voted recklessly, but because you’re voting according to a mafia mindset.

I already explained my reasons for voting caz.

How about you actually read my defense post and quit using “JAUMEBG = AXIOM” logic?
Seriously. It’s not hypocrisy, and you clearly are ignoring both my defense post and the intention of my original post.

You’ve used “I am not being a hypocrite” as a basis for an argument three times now, if my count is correct. At some point or another, one has to try for something else.

The townsfolk, however, does care whether they lynch mafia or not. The town doesn’t go “I don’t like X so we lynch him”, because they try to find mafia whenever possible. If somebody know X is mafia but the bandwagon goes to Y, he’ll try to lynch X and not continue on bandwagon Y just to get somebody lynched.

You’ll notice how frequent bandwagons are in most mafias, especially early on in a game. This is because it is very rare for someone to actually HAVE solid proof of someone being a mafia. If a person does have solid proof that someone else is a mafia, having been given it by the GM, then by all means, they will probably act upon it; if they don’t, however, then unless given this proof by someone else, they’ll generally end up acting upon their own suspicions, which are more than likely to be influenced by the largest bandwagon at the time – they don’t want to stick out, because that’ll show them up to the others as a potential mafia member. Hence the reason bandwagons exist in the first place – lots of people voting for one other person for ultimately superficial reasons because they don’t want to be shown up, aside from the few cases where someone manages to make an informed case.

I don’t get it. What blame am I trying to shift? Nobody has blamed me for anything before I made that post.

It’s a figure of speech – the “blame”, in this case, is the potential one has for being a mafia member. At this point in proceedings, I’d say you had rather a lot of potential, which you’d want to reduce; ergo, blame-shifting. Or, if you want me to say it clearly for you, “potential-shifting”.

This entire post and vote is just OMGUS and doesn’t contain any value, proven by the fact that he entirely ignored my post about why my vote isn’t hypocrisy which made almost all arguments he stated invalid.

You mean random insults? Like the kind I DIDN’T make in my previous post? Because that’s what “Oh My God You Suck” (abbreviated to OMGUS) implies there.

And for a lot of people, those classes are too restrictive. For instance, a simple pyromancer would only have control over fire, but he’d be able to use it in far more ways than ‘standard destruction’, such as forming superheated walls of fire to block attacks.

Incidentally, are you C_C?

Topic: Forum Games / [Signups] The Sandman's Grave.

Like I said, nobody’s going to check the D&D site or whatever whenever they want to throw magic at opponents. Because that’s just what they want to do – throw magic at opponents, WITHOUT the hassle of using specific “spells”, like a boring magician.

Topic: Forum Games / Chocolate Mafia [No Chocolate Involved] DAY THREE

Vara, you’ve gone and opened yourself up for accusations of hypocrisy, which Jaume has already brought down upon you, and which I shall bring down upon you once again. If voting for someone because they voted recklessly is a reason for someone to be a mafia member, then so is voting for someone because they voted for someone who voted recklessly. As Jaume noted, it’s practically the same thing, given the circumstances. Also, you’ve claimed I have the mindset of someone who ‘lynches for the sake of lynching’. Somehow, that accusation comes across as scummy in and of itself – lynching for the sake of lynching would imply that anyone and everyone was a target, which is really more a trait of the townsfolk than the mafia. Thus, the accusation gives the impression, to me, that you have some blame to shift.

I vote Vara for hypocrisy, reckless accusations, and blame shifting.

[Well, Gambi he hasn’t responded to my latest PMs… I’m not sure he’s been on Kongregate for a while, either. If he’s just inactive, I have to ask what he’s doing at the moment.]

Topic: Forum Games / [Signups] The Sandman's Grave.

Really, I have a bit of a problem with the usable magics being limited to “D&D schools”. Yes, I understand why you might do that for balance purposes, but who’s going to check for something about a specific aspect of a specific role-playing game whenever they want to cast a spell? Nobody, that’s who – either they’re too lazy to do so, or they’ve already learned all the spells off by heart, and the latter group is going to be far, far smaller than the former, I guarantee. In any case, I’d suggest allowing freeform magic, but only one type per slot.
