PONG MAFIA SIGN-UPS (back to basics)
« on: October 06, 2009, 10:11:05 PM »
Turn off your fancy 8-bit graphics, we're going to head back for something a little less complicated.  I'm talking about Pong.  You hit a ball at me, I hit a ball at you.  Rinse, repeat. 

There will be one mafia, the PONG MAFIA.  They consist of:

"Godfather" Black Paddle, and his henchmen "Crimson" Red Paddle and "Ol' Dirty" Brown Paddle.  Also in the mafia is "Elusive Lucy" the Clear Paddle.

Only the Black Paddle can send in the nightly hit.  If he gets voted out, then Red becomes Godfather.  If Red gets voted out, then Brown becomes Godfather.  If Brown gets voted out, then Clear gets the job.

Clear Paddle also has the ability of tricking the Investigator ("Sheriff" Blue Paddle) into the wrong result of an investigation, if Clear Paddle picks the same target for Tomfoolery that Blue picks for Investigating.

Other residents of PONG TOWN include:

"Sheriff" Blue Paddle, who gets to learn the true role of any player in the game, once per night.

"Doc" Yellow Paddle
, who can save the life of any mafia-hit player, once per night, if the player he chooses to protect is the same player the mafia chooses to hit.  He cannot, however, protect himself.

"Beloved" Orange Paddle, who is so popular in this town that if they are voted out, then whoever led the bandwagon will be lynched out of the game.

"Tricky" Green Paddle, who can negate any player's vote once per night. 


  • The voting day will begin between 7 and 9 AM CST, and end at 11 PM CST nightly. 
  • Night actions will not be accepted until night begins at 11 PM CST (this is a change from my last game)
  • Night actions will be processed in the order they are received.
  • No erasing of old votes, if you wish to change your vote, edit your original post to unbold the vote, and add strikethrough.  Any votes that don't have strikethrough will be counted, and that will negate any additional votes from that player during the day.

Signups will go through Sunday night, and the game will start Monday Morning.

If we're running low on players, then maybe we'll extend signups a few more days.

EDIT: Just to make this a bit more interesting, I will throw a prize up for grabs.   The player on the winning team who is voted MVP after the game is over will earn themselves a gift from the Wii Shop Channel (to up 1000 points) courtesy of yours truly.    If there is a tie, then I'll flip a coin.

But you were resurrected Maxi. Clearly that means you have friends in high places, and that makes you too dangerous.

Ha ha, and yeah, DrewMG is a general moderator so he has power of EVERYTHING. So don't give him any lip like you do me.

Yeah I was brought back but I was surprised as the rest of you when I saw that I could come back. Just because it wasn't easy fight for the Pure team doesn't mean that you can blame me for your troubles. Besides I didn't kill you. 

Drew yeah I guess he has things under control.

So since Stratos isn't around you decide to pick on me.
I'm not the root of your problem.
A bit of introspection will do you well.

Yeah, you're right. Stratos doesn't love me anymore, so now I need a new rival. So why can't that be you?

But you should be honoured. I don't just choose any old person to be my rival. It's gotta be someone crafty and deceptive, yet still loyal to the right people. You should consider it a privilege.

...Ah, but I guess that doesn't much fit with your style, does it? You're the silent but strong type so you don't want to make a scene. I see...

Well, I guess I'll have to find somebody else. Who wants to sign up?

I really haven't found a style of play I like yet. So I haven't really had a definitive style.

If nobody wants to be your rival after sign ups end then I guess I could be your 1 game rival.

I'm not signing up.  I'm enrolling.  Enrolling into the Pong Academy.  Hopefully there's no evil paddle gangs out to get me.

If you want to call this a sign-up, I suppose you can.

Let's see if I can do better than last game. Actually, let's just hope there is no hollow victory for either side this time. In because I don't know any better.
Whoever said, "Cheaters never win" must've never met Khushrenada.

Just wanted to note that I have edited the original post to include PRIZES.  Winning player voted MVP will win a VC or WiiWare game up to 1000 points courtesy of me.

Can you not gift overseas?

Edit: Apparently not.  Drat.  I dunno, Dasmos.  We'll figure something out.
