I better get a good one. My dead avatar sucks.

lol, I don't look happy in the bottom left frame (obviously, I mean I WAS plummeting to my death).

But what's the small, bottom middle one?

Athrun Zala · « **Reply #127 on:** July 26, 2006, 10:03:13 AM »

so vudu died......noone will ever guess who killed him :roll:

The cloud from the explosion. One of the series that I was watching, I think this happened in Pokemon more than once, the explosion always turned into a flowery looking smoke. Also the bottom left one your not happen because those are flames around you as you plummet to your death, think shuttle or soyoz(sp?) landing.

Man, I'm not sure if hosting mafia is a very good idea. Complain complain complain... ><

*pats Pale's back*
We gripe and everything partially because we're frustrated. We know a really good sandwich is there but we're not even given a nibble. This is your first time hosting right? Just learn for next time. All the concepts we're good. The implementation could have been a little better but that comes with time and experience. I'm sure the first time I host one it will really stink. It can only get better from there. So buck up.

Now you know how Pryo feels.

I like the idea behind the game, but the execution was a little poor. (Knowing only what I know as of right now) it seems you knew that Dash was slightly crippled because one of their members could die with every kill. Therefore you tried to balance the game out a bit by creating a rule whereby they could only be voted out after a certain condition was met. Unfortunately, the condition isn't known to any of us, so we're left with a super-mafia that can't be killed. The game would eventually right itself after Dash performed five kills (given the odds that a member will die after every kill), but the chances of the game going on that long (15 days) isn't very good. If Dash chooses not to perform a kill, they could live forever.

By trying to compensate for Dash's inability to perform a hit without dying themselves you've given them too much power and thrown off the balance of the game.

Again, this is just going by the information I have at present time. For all I know, Dash could have been voted off every time, and we just have really bad luck.

Don't worry Pale, I still like your game better than Wandering's

The device to create infighting in the mafias was clever.

Personally, I'm enjoying the uncertainty and realism.

As for whether what is happening right now is fair....well, I'll wait to pass judgement until I know exactly what's going on. I still think 18 days is being protected by her fellow doctors (and I think the reason pale has been surprised by what's happening is that, when a doctor tries to protect someone from being voted out, the probability for failure is much higher.)

Ceric · « **Reply #134 on:** July 26, 2006, 03:51:28 PM »

I personally think though that if you are saved by a doctor then when we see you in the morning there should be some sign. Bandages a cut. Something. There hasn't been anything like that the whole game. Clues like that. That's what I miss. If we are going for reality then a doctor would fix you after your beaten up and then you should go and kill the person responsible.

Seriously, one of my mafia buds still thought I was alive.

You died in your sleep in the same position. I couldn't even do anything with your drawing.

As You can Clearer See Sir My Client was Murdered In the Forest with The Snorlax By the...

I wanted to draw Pheonix Wright doing the whole finger thing I've seen in screenshots. Started to went horribly wrong and went to this. Just imagine that super imposed if you want.

Edit: The original is bigger but it got resized by Photobucket because of the size limit.

I thought the same thing. I had to PM Pale to make sure you were dead.

agreed, as it seemed to work

the only thing is that maybe that and chances shouldn't have been used at the same time (they were 2 new concepts afterall)

and vudu, it isn't like that, as far as I can tell those have been VERY lucky...

One of us, one of us.

Gooble gobble, gooble gobble.

About time someone tried to kill me. Seriously.

Jiggly Puff leaves a good looking corpse.

decoyman · « **Reply #143 on:** July 27, 2006, 07:42:43 AM »

At least in my group of friends (none of whom actually play Pokemon, I should note), Jigglypuff is seen as the stupidest pokemon in SSBM. I mean, look at the glassy, unintelligent doll eyes, the blissfully ignorant smile which never leaves its face... We put Jigglypuff into matches just to hear him die ("Jigglllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy..."). Yes, I probably sound like a horrible person after this post, but I had to give the background when I say that...

I find it absolutely preposterous that Jigglypuff held a medical doctorate.

Ceric · « **Reply #144 on:** July 27, 2006, 08:15:13 AM »

It could only be better if:

1) It was 18 Days
2) I survived and claimed Nemyh's head
3) If my onion was the right way in the Avatar

Glorious. The picture won't be up unitl tomorrow. This is going to take some time.

stevey · « **Reply #145 on:** July 27, 2006, 09:15:19 AM »

Hmm......

cant kill 18 days
the last townie dead (not counting recruite)

THE GAME IS BROKEN!!!!

nemyhlovecraft · « **Reply #146 on:** July 27, 2006, 09:23:39 AM »

WRONG...

18 Days · « **Reply #147 on:** July 27, 2006, 10:39:03 AM »

Townies are still alive. You'd proabbly know what was going on if you wern't dead stevey.

blackfootsteps · « **Reply #148 on:** July 27, 2006, 02:41:13 PM »

Nemy's dead avatar is awesome, good work Pale.

vudu · « **Reply #149 on:** July 27, 2006, 02:53:56 PM »

Bob has my favorite dead avatar. I hope he keeps it after the game is over.
