NWR Forums Discord / The Official Funhouse 2014 GOTY Thread.

« on: December 25, 2014, 01:26:35 AM »

Best Platformer: Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric.

We all know Sonic beats Mario because he runs faster and because genesis does what Nintendon't. And no matter how many animals from the Minnesota Zoo Donkey Kong beats up he will never be able to beat Sonic.

Best Horror Game: The Letter

Look Aliens: Isolation was fun and all but honestly, alot of games have aliens. Animal Crossing has a ufo you have to shoot down with a slingshot and a creepy tv thing at 3 am for goodness sakes. We have enough games with aliens.

You know what we don't have enough representation of in games? Mail. Can you think of another 2014 game with mail? No, you can't. The Letter dares to represent this usually untapped idea and for that it's the Funhouse Horror GOTY

Best 3rd Person Action Game: Assasin's Creed Unity.

The reason I play video games is to escape reality and one of those realities I face is that women are, for whatever reason, not attracted to me. I play Bayonetta 2 and I am constantly reminded of my nonexistant love life.

I applaud Ubisoft for their decision to not have playable female characters so I can avoid remembering those tragic moments in my love life. Besides Ubisoft is so awesome that they gave us a free game just to avoid legal trouble isn't that nice.

Also Polygon says Bayonetta is sexist and we all know Polygon is the greatest press outlet ever.

Best Puzzle Game: Password Luv Connection

Let's be honest, Password fucking sucks. It's the most dull and repetitive game out there. The 'game' is basically you try to guess what one word out of thousands in the English language Khushrenada thought of. I tried trolling it once with the french word for kitten but got so bored I just bailed after the second hint.

That said Password gets the puzzle game of the year. No it's not because Password is hosted here on the forums and so I'm contractually obliged to give it the reward. It's actually because Khushrenada is right behind me holding a golden axe in front of my neck.

Hey guys, you know that shitty password game khushy put on here? Take that, and add fun. That's Luv Connection.

Best Racing Game" Drive Club v 1.0

LOOK AT THAT LEATHER CHAIR!!!!!!!!!!

The updates just mess with the purity of drive club. Besides I hear sunlight from the weather update is bad for THAT LEATHER!!!!!!

And the overall best game of the year is...

Woo-hoo!

That's right folks. You see the issue with games like Sonic Boom, Assassin's Creed, and even those loser games like Smash and Bayonnetta is that they exist. There is a limit to how fun they can be. Woo-Hoo does not exist and thus it can be as awesome and fun as it wants.

Feel like supporting the devs by paying microtransactions? Just give the money to me, I'm sure I'll get it to them eventually. You don't like microtransactions? Well there are no microtransactions.

The game doesn't even have to be fun! For those people who hate fun such as the mods of this very forum Woo-hoo can be as un-fun as you could possibly imagine.

Now that's what you call a wide range of gameplay options.

And for all that and so much more Woo-hoo is the game of the show.

And because Woo-hoo doesn't exist I get to keep all the reward money for myself.

Reader Reviews / (Opinion) Pokemon ORAS: the Primal Reversion of the Pokemon Series.

« on: November 23, 2014, 11:16:18 PM »

When Pokemon X and Y came out I was overjoyed. It felt like the Pokemon series had finally modernized itself with things like the full 3D battles, 3D overworld, and more minor things like the introduction of Super Training to finally fix the E.V. training mechanic. The fact that it feels like there are enough Pokemon in the game to actually make completing your pokedex with one game somewhat possible.

But to me one of the biggest changes was the Trainer Customization mechanic. It's something I'd hoped Pokemon as a series would incorporate in the near future and I felt that while X and Y's customization options were limited that the represented a solid start to a feature that I was looking forward to seeing in future games in the series. When Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire were announced I became curious about how it would be incorporated. I saw no reason to use the word 'if' because I honestly saw no reason that gamefreak wouldn't include the feature.

"In terms of the customization of the trainer, that was really kind of a special thing for the Kalos region, which featured this kind of motif of France and really focused on this beauty and fashion aspect, which is why it was a prominent feature in that game. For this game, we're focusing on adventuring elements, so we don't have the actual free customization of the trainer, but you'll see the items you use throughout the game visually represented; for example, when you're underwater, you'll have this little mouthpiece that lets you breathe. So there's some cool stuff for how your trainer changes clothes and puts on accessories throughout the game." -Junichi Masuda

While his response isn't quite as bad as a certain other responses to similar omissions (*cough* Ubisoft) he does fail to provide an adequate reason for the exclusion. I mean the game runs on the same engine as X/Y and stuff like that so it should be easy to just port the stuff from that game and be done with it but apparently character customization has gone the way of the Battle Frontier.

Oh and remember how HG/SS went out of their way to include stuff from Crystal and all that and they even put the Battle Frontier from Platinum where Crystal had it's battle tower? No such luck here.

Oh and they didn't even bother to patch X and Y with the new megas so if you want to battle me and I don't have ORAS then you'll have to leave your Mega Swampert behind because, in what I suspect is Gamefreak taking another page from Ubisoft's Playbook, they're probably too busy working on next year's Pokemon Game to fix the compatibility issues that this years Pokemon game has with X/Y.

Seriously, I was willing to put up with this kind of stuff on the DS because patching DS games isn't exactly something that happens ever but on the 3DS Gamefreak has no excuse. There is no reason why there isn't a patch for X/Y to support the new Mega's and the fact that there isn't one is unacceptable.

I was very excited for ORAS when they were first announced but as is, if I ever do get the game, it's going to be 'used' at Gamestop. I find this kind of behavior unbelieveable on Gamefreak's part and if this is how they are going to treat the series then they can go along without my money.

Reader Reviews / Skyward Sword: my full thesis on the second worst Zelda game not on the cdi

« on: November 08, 2014, 09:05:21 PM »

I have been a very vocal critic of Nintendo's late 2011 release of The Legend if Zelda: Skyward Sword but there are people who seem to somehow be able to enjoy the game. Now Skyward Sword is a fairly divisive game among the Zelda franchise so if you are considering purchasing this game I would suggest finding a more positive review of the game as a counterpoint of sorts because there is a chance you may enjoy the game. I did not but before I go into that I suppose I should go ahead and talk about what the game does well.

Firstly one of the things Skyward Sword does well with is it's general art direction. The character models are probably the most expressive the series has seen and the environments they show are very attractive. The game itself is very well presented and some of the music is very nice to listen to (the rest is generic, forgettable garbage but we're trying to be nice here.)


Oh timeshift stones, oh how I love you so...

Also the timeshift stones are absolutely brilliant and I really want to see a game focused on just that mechanic. It's a shame that they were instead forced onto this sad excuse for a Zelda game and It's also a shame that I seem to have run out of nice things to say about this game. I guess I'd better raise my flame shield and be ready to shake my nunchuck to make sure it doesn't break while I go into what the game doesn't do well.

I suppose it's wise to start with the motion controls which, honestly, often end up swingin' amiss. the general swordplay, no matter what I tried in terms of rearranging my sensor bar and all that jazz, still couldn't seem to detect my movements more then 95% of the time. Granted it's probably something that could be blamed on the weaknesses of the Wii's motion control but still, this is ridiculous.

Most of your items are done with motion control and most of it works fine most of the time. They made the bow worse somehow compared to Twilight Princess (along with alot of the other pointer stuff) but still, it mostly works the way you'd expect. Nothing spectacular or anything. The flying and, later on, the swimming, both control by tilting the remote and pressing the A button for movement. That's fine and all but the fact that the analog stick is completely unused and I seriously have to wonder why that wasn't included as an option.

Now speaking of which, the sky is a vast, expansive, place and it's easy to get confused so I took the liberty of crossing out any island that doesn't have anything worth bothering with so here we go:


Oh and I'm sure that big cloud in the corner there won't be important ever.

That's it. Seriously, everything else is either a worthless minigame island or a random floating rock and maybe there's something in there if you activate the appropriate Goddess Cube, or if you're into flailing your arms around trying to slice bamboo for a piece of heart (which by the way should be a reward for finding a hidden chest or something, not for falling through some rings.) but more then likely you won't have any reason to bother with them.)

Now the surface areas of the overworld are a mixed bag. The forest area is, in my opinion, slightly below average, the volcano one is bland and boring, and the desert is freaking awesome. As I said before the environments here are very attractive but ultimately you end up going along a certain path, completing a fetch quest to get an item (generally involving the Dowsing mechanic which to be honest isn't very fun,) and going off to the dungeon. There's a random Goron archaeologist wandering around, studying the bird statues that are used to, among other things, save.

Wait, why did we go back to only being able to save at a specific point, I mean the only other game in the series to pull this kind of stuff is Majora's Mask. Why are we going back to an archaic save at only this specific spot, type system.

Anyways the dungeons themselves are mostly your standard fare. Go in, solve puzzles, and fight boss. The only real standouts here are the one's in the desert which, just so happen to use timeshift stones. The boss fights are mostly fun although when there are 15 of them and 6 of them are the same two bosses just recycled three times apeice (and one of those two isn't even a good boss fight to begin with.) then we have problems. That golden statue boss, Koloktos, was great though, although perhaps part of that pleasure to me is that Link is doing to the boss what I want to do to the game itself.

Annoyingly enough though apparently the boss key is now a weird puzzle of it's own where the key is this certain shape and you use the Wii Remote to tilt the key into the little block opening on the boss key. It's an annoying little gimmick that should have been left on the planning stage.


No really? I thought we were in Disneyland.

After doing so well with Midna it seemed that the days of annoying Zelda companions that nobody likes (although I don't really mind Navi) but nope here comes Fi. Fi is basically, for those of you who have been so blessed as to not be given the privilege of playing this game, is basically Navi crossed with someone's naggy, overbearing mother. But here, to demonstrate how annoying she is, we're going to do a little play by play so please bear with me:

Scene, a giant pirate ship. Link's just chilling on the ship, when all of a sudden, a bunch of tentacles breaking through the floorboards of the ships and tearing stuff up in a cutscene that might as well have been preceded by someone giving the command "RELEASE THE KRAKEN."

A little while later Fi pops out and informs you that "while it's difficult to make out the situation" that "there is a strong likelihood that the ship is under attack".

I am not making this up, this is quite literally something that happens in the game and I even looked up a Youtube video to make sure I didn't miss anything. Yes Fi, I know that something happened here, I was there. Alright Fi, I can hear the beeping, I know we are low on hearts, now shut it. Oh and another thing: I know that I messed up the Silent Realm, you do not have to pop up and inform me that I 'failed' the challenge because anyone with two working brain cells could work that one out.

Oh and the 'best' part is, in what I assume to be Skyward Sword's pitiful excuse for humor, she informs you, when you first find a Kikwi, that there's a '95% chance that the creature you're looking at is not Zelda.' After this you are sent on an oh so important quest to find some more Kikwi's because apparently Link answers Amber alerts now but then if you go and wander a bit to far then she will pop up, tell you there are no Kikwi's in the area and then the game has Link turn around and walk back like a scolded child.

The game made an active effort to prevent me from making any sort of exploration. Not that there's any real reason to go looking around because you'll be back in the forest at least twice before the game ends. But here's the thing, there is virtually nothing in terms of secrets in this game. The closest thing you have to a 'secret' is Goddess Cube wedged in the ground somewhere. Finding one of these cubes "rewards" you with, once you activated it, having to go back into the sky and find the chest that is now unlocked to probably just end up getting some rupees that you probably have more then enough of. Remember those elaborate hidden caves Wind Waker (and Twilight Princess to a lesser extent) had? Well Skyward Sword doesn't have any of that.


Are we there yet?

Conclusion
The Legend of Zelda series, to me has always had exploration, and figuring stuff on your own or just discovering them, as two of the core fundamental parts of the series. These two things can be traced all the way back to the original game and even Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link (which is the one game in the series I enjoyed less) firmly met those standards but Skyward Sword fails to heed those same ideas. The game basically builds a momentum to herd you from dungeon to dungeon so Fi can tell you how to go through them all.

Skyward Sword simply doesn't feel like a Zelda game to me, but that doesn't matter because it certainly isn't a good one

I have been reported so many time by Miiverse Administrators that I feel were in violation of my Freedom of Speech. My latest concern though was that I had three comments that were deleted they claimed was included criminal activity. I was talking to someone about the website Vizzed.com and the number of games they could play. Because Nintendo is offended by the words "emulators" and "hacked" you can't mention anything about it on Miiverse. Vizzed.com is a legal site  that allows you to play games off of their site only using their emulators. They do not charge you for the games, but to keep the site running you can donate to the page. The recieved their domain name from Go Daddy.com and have been running their site since 1998. I was accused of criminal activity all because of this site. I do believe that their Code of Conducts is in direct violation on many user rights as well that I have experienced and have told them countless of time. They don't believe they are doing anything wrong

NWR Mafia Games / Mafia 63: Something... of the Daleks: Postgame thread where you call me an idiot

« on: September 07, 2014, 12:26:24 AM »

dead: marvel_moviefan_2012: (renegade dalek drone)

First things first, yes, I know I fucked up some things

-the whole Stratos/Lolmanade role thing was probably my biggest **** up IMO. Stratos was meant to be the godfather and lolmanade the special weapons dalek but I messed up one of the investigative PM's

-my main reason for not replacing Oblivion is because I felt that a Khush/stevey 2 person mafia would be able to pose a threat (and I don't think anyone would have suspected Stevey anyways). I also was concerned about balancing. However now I have a better idea of exactly how these things work and if something like this were to happen again I would be more willing to sign on a replacement.

-I also forgot to send a list of night actions to Spak-spang on day 1. Nothing of interest there.

-I never saw the day 4 tie. If I had, as I joked before, I would have killed everyone who was still playing and declared myself the winner.

-I did want to be more liberal with the whole 'going in the thread and making fun of people' but it's surprisingly difficult to do that without revealing something I shouldn't.

-Silenced has been silent the entire game, I think he's trolling me.

-I actually considered making silenced one of the godfathers so that when he's killed I could make fun of everyone for not seeing that subliminal messaging. (The silenced godfather clause, it even says he's the godfather in the rules.)

Oh and

Spak spang: The Doctor
Mop it up: Dr Rachel Jensen.
Silenced: Group Captain Gilmore.

***besides Nickmitch. (Townie)

Apparently Imperial Dalek drones aren't very good at keeping track of time either.

So about now we can expect both mafias to attack eachother... well we could except a certain dalek faction decided to force a tie in a foolish effort to save one of their own.

Alright, just one guy left. Think you can manage to win this one? Based on past history i'd say there's about a 33% chance of a townie win

I for one have other matters to attend to. They are, rest assured totally evil and sinister unlike some people who want to turn Animal Crossing into a game of hoarders.

NWR Mafia Games / Mafia 63: Something of the Daleks: Day 4: a little... TIED up here at the moment

« on: September 05, 2014, 01:05:51 AM »

So while khush was being sent to the firing squad it was found that his uniform seemed to be a loose fit. Come to think of it, he seemed a bit shorter then everyone remembered.

"Well, I'm the miller, err I'm the cop err, man now I don't even know who I really am."

as the shots were fired the hat of his uniform came off revealing some rather long blonde hair. upon closer inspection they found that his face was actually the face of a Little Girl. She screamed and screamed on how 'that didn't count' and 'you didn't count lucariofan's improperly changed vote' but her screams quickly fell to silence...

Which reminds me: Khush is a little girl, Khush is a little girl, nah nah nah nah nah

Also taken to the gallows was Stratos, but as they began shooting they realized their bullets couldn't quite harm him. The Doctor, however, quick to his feet, grabbed the backpack belonging to Ace before her untimely death and began searching inside. At last he last piece of Nitro 9, a highly destructive homemade explosive that Ace had invented.

Recalling all of the times he scolded her for having it with her, and feeling the tears beginning to form in his eyes, he quickly activated the explosive and threw it at Stratos. There was nothing left where he was except the charred remains of the Special Weapons Dalek

Now upon seeing this destruction the Dalek Supreme went out to find Lolmanade. What he found instead was a face he knew all too well: Davros. Without a hint of hesitation before the man responsible for it's creation the Dalek Supreme immediately raised it's gunstick and made one word, one word that davros himself knew all too well: exterminate.

However as he was returning to the others he returned to his more human design. However a rather handsome man with a very nice mustache approached him whom the Dalek Supreme did not recognize.

"Hello there stevey," the man said, and with that he activated a device that returned the dalek supreme to it's natural form.

'But why?' The dalek asked

'I tell you not to force a tie and what do you do? You force a tie.'

'But Lucariofa----'

And with that the Dalek Supreme was no more.

next The Master decided to pay Group Capture Gilmore, or as his friends call him, Silenced, a visit. Feeling a bit generous The Master gave him a little thing of plastic, LIVING PLASTIC. to be exact. The whole thing went something like this:

Also, Lucariofan99 was killed, but he isn't important.

Dead:
Khush (little girl (RD role cop) killed by vote
Stratos (special weapons dalek(ID role cop)) killed by vote.
Lolmanade (davros ID Godfather) killed by renegade daleks.
Stevey (Dalek Supreme (RD Godfather) killed by the Master.
Silenced (Captain Gilmore (townie role cop)) killed by the Master.
Lucariofan99 (townie) killed by the Master.

And Don't say I didn't warn you,

NWR Mafia Games / Mafia 63: Something... of the Daleks: Cleaveland Browns Defense vs. the Daleks

« on: September 04, 2014, 01:06:37 AM »

Immediately before his untimely demise it was discovered that our friend Ceric was in fact Mike Smith.. Despite his claims that he was unaware of the situation involving Mr. Ratcliffe he was killed all the same.

(Oh, did I forget to send him a PM? oops... actually that was intentional)

But hey, he actually is supposed to die so there you go.

Meanwhile our good friend insanolord was walking along the streets near totters lane when he found himself in the middle of an imperial dalek ambush. However do not fear because the Doctor was there and he brought with him some familiar faces: the Cleaveland Browns.

Remarkably it turns out the Browns can put up a decent offense to save someones life. They also had some excellent defensive plays in this life or death struggle with the Imperial Dalek drone. If only they could find a way to transfer all of this to the field maybe they would actually be able to win something.

ceric (miller) dead by vote
Insanolord: saved by the Doctor (and the Browns)

this is honestly my favorite dalek moment just because I just love the imagery of four Daleks just strolling in during the middle of a cybermen Invasion and suddenly everyone else just has this 'oh ****' moment and starts banding together to try and deal with them.

NWR Mafia Games / Mafia 63: Something... of the Daleks: Day 2: Renegade Daleks vs. Renegade Canon

« on: September 03, 2014, 12:49:58 AM »

After a long hard struggle the voting has closed with Redblue being the poor soul sent to the firing squad. Now not alot of people know this but Redblue's real name was 'Dorothy Gale McShane'. She was a troubled young lady who the doctor decided to take under his wing.

Oh and one more thing, she was also known as Ace.


You people killed my favorite companion, thank's alot. bastards

Now I suppose it would be natural to show how her travels would have ended so here is her last appearance on Doctor Who.

hold on, wait a minute, no goodbyes, no nothing, just walking off into the sunset?

I'm afraid so, the 1989 cancellation of Doctor Who left Ace with an incomplete story arc. This clip, from the oh so brilliantly named episode 'survival' is the last scene in the classic version of Doctor Who.

So I guess you did her a favor and granted her closure but you also ruined one of the best classic who episodes 'The Curse of Fenric', where she plays a central role in bastards

Also apdude was killed by the Renegade Daleks, apparently nobody likes moles with sonic screwdrivers.

Dead
redblue, Ace.
apdude: townie

Funfact: if we had reached the player number neaded to add a bomber role I would have deliberately rigged the system so that Apdude would have gotten it. He seemed to love setting off bombs without thinking last time (and I'm never going to let him live that down :D)

(Reminders, RP introductions, and a sudden announcement)

So this is just a nice quiet place for you primitives to become acquainted with eachother so you know who you're about to brutally murder so l'll start, I am The Master, I like causing mischief across the cosmos in attempt to eventually be able to rule the galaxy.

Speaking of which, while young pokepal148 was sending out pm's for roles and such he received this in response:

Bro, I told you I wasn't in the game anymore.

Now pokepal148 couldn't recall when this person had done this so he did some digging around and found this.

I just realized I will be on vacation in Florida for a week starting the 25th, so I might need to take back my signup for this game.

Now today is September first (which based on what we were told is.when this person would return) so  I decided to go and help him out since it seems he is unable to comprehend the rather primitive system of measuring and keeping time you earthlings use.

Instead I was fired upon by an enemy of extraterrestrial origin. So after a calculated retreat into my tardis I used a transmat beam I'd 'borrowed' to send the creature into a stasis chamber (thus freezing it)

It appears that this Dalek was masquerading as some earthling known as oblivion, he was from the renegade faction. I have seen evidence that the Imperial faction is also secretly active in this area. Regardless I decided to eject the unwanted cargo straight into the time vortex and well, lets be honest, if he can't figure out how weeks work then he's going to have a fun time in there

But you know, as I always say,


dead:Oblivion (Renegade Dalek Drone)(killed because he asked for it.)

Tommorow night I suspect the Renegade Daleks will move to the offensive on you guys in retaliation for Oblivion's death but don't you worry, I'll be nice and safe in Pompeii, (I checked, it's not volcano day)

Group captain Gilmore has an opportunity to get two free investigations, or did he use them already -oohh-

Also insanolord has joined the fray but no, I do not see a new dalek drone coming in to replace oblivion.

IF YOU HAVEN'T RECIEVED A PM ON YOUR ROLE THEN YOU'RE A TOWNIE.

« on: August 15, 2014, 07:03:33 PM »

given the years of discussion here on the Nintendo World Report forums I feel we should begin chronicling some of the highlights in that discussion.

Having a bunch of digital games is nice to play, but it's a massive disappointment if you ever want to roll around naked in a giant pile of them.

Let me know if you have concerns on dating.

Yes. I don't think it should be done until one has reached the age of 18. Sick of this puppy love crap.

NWR Mafia Games / Mafia 63: Something... of the Daleks: Signups OVER!!!

« on: August 11, 2014, 07:02:52 PM »

Story based on... well, any surprises?

A man named George Ratcliffe was found dead yesterday and the ICMG, upon investigation has found that his insides were 'scrambled'. With the help of the Doctor, a time traveler who showed up on the same day, they were able to learn that George Ratcliffe was working with a race of creatures known as the Daleks. It appears that there are not one, but two opposing Dalek factions who both seek control of a device known as the Hand of Omega which the Doctor claims to have stashed somewhere in town a while back. However The Doctor believes that the ICMG has been infiltrated by both Dalek factions.


Group Captain Gilmore (cop): leader of the ICMG (Intrusion Countermeasures Group) he can use his sources in the British intelligence agency to investigate other players and find out their roles. I will allow a day 0 investigation.


The Doctor (Role blocker): Is aware of everything that happens at night and can prevent any night actions from happening. This ability can only be used Twice.


Dr. Rachel Jensen: (Doctor) Captain Gilmore's scientific advisor and medical personnel. Has the ability to protect someone but not herself


Dorothy "Ace" Mcshane: (Vigilante): instead of cowering in fear and screaming like his previous companions the Doctors current companion goes after daleks with baseball bats and her own specialized homemade explosive.


Mike Smith (Miller): a young man formerly employed to George Ratcliffe. Although he is functionally a normal townie should he be investigated Captain Gilmore will be told he is a Dalek.

The Mafias:
Imperial Daleks:

Davros (godfather): leader of the Imperial Daleks, registers as townie when investigated.


Special Weapons Dalek(role cop): A special forces Dalek who's advanced targeting systems can be used to investigate a player and learn of their roles. This ability can only be used twice. Dalek supreme and Captain Gilmore are unaffected.

Imperial Dalek drone:

It's a regular dalek, what else is there to say. It shoots lasers and serves Davros. (Will be put into play when we reach 13 players along with its renegade counterpart)

Renegade Daleks

Dalek Supreme(godfather 2): Leader of the renegade Daleks. Registers as townie when investigated.


Little girl/battle computer(role cop): The Dalek Battle computer leeches off the mind of a little girl and her capacity for imagination. Because of this the little girl can be controlled by the computer by remote and used to investigate for player roles with the exception of Davros and Captain Gilmore. This ability can only be used twice.


Renegade Dalek drone: I think of the two, this is the one you shake to get pepper. Oh nope, it's shooting lasers at me. I think it's loyal to the renegade daleks but unless we reach 13 players we really won't know for sure.

Tie rule: God so help you if there's a tie. I may just do nothing, I may kill everyone who voted for a tie, I may pick some people and apply the 'voteless' or 'suicidal' role to them, it's like landing on a bowser space in mario party, except no sympathy for fourth place.

but the fun doesn't stop there, I may stop noting if for example a mafia member is killed to increase the suspense or start lying to the investigative roles, I may  kill anyone that Rachel tries to save. I may also kill anyone who sends me a kill request, who knows.

Basically don't force a tie, or I start trolling the entire game

Because there is no killer starting on day 5 both dalek factions will be able to make a hit. Day 1 and 3 will only allow the renegade Daleks to make a hit while Day 2 and 4 will only allow the imperial Daleks to make a hit.

Silenced Godfather Clause: if the godfather cannot preform his duties for whatever reason one of his underlings may request a night kill in his place. However if both the godfather and his underling request a kill then the Godfather's kill request will be granted,

Night actions for all roles are due 20 minutes after the Days end. The Doctor will then be sent a list of night actions and asked if he wishes to block any of them (again this can be done twice)

Day ends at 12pm est, next one begins when I make a thread for it to begin.

stretch goals:
13 players: Dalek goons added.
18 players: Shura added. Who's Shura you ask? Well...


Note: as mentioned in the signup thread I will be role playing as the Master. Those unfamiliar with the show should note that the Master has a tendency to be very manipulative. he seems to delight in messing with people, you probably shouldn't listen to him


Shura: Having traveled from the 22nd century to the 20th, Shura came here in an attempt to avert a future where the Imperial Daleks gain the Hand of Omega and take over the Earth. However his journey through time has done some rather nasty stuff to his mind and he sees everyone as a Dalek regardless of their identity and wants to see to it that everyone is killed.

If he is killed by mafia hit whoever made the hit will also be killed.
If he's killed by vote then whoever voted for him is also killed.

NWR Feedback / Article vs Forum View on talkback issues and issues with quotes.

now look at my second post on the whole pokeball vivillon deal on the forum view version.
http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/forums/index.php?topic=45211.new#new

And let's look at it again on the sites news comment section thing.
http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/38235/poke-ball-pattern-vivillon-giveaway-has-begun-in-north-america

Now we're going to play a game of spot the differences, there are two major differences that should probably be resolved, have you found them yet?

the news article view cuts the post about halfway through, right about where the (/quote) tag is but *gasp*

Any indication of me quoting anything has also vanished.


Thank you for playing. Tonights episode is sponsored by: Shorts, they're comfy and easy to wear.
