NWR Mafia Games / Re: Mafia 66 Rehash of the Daleks Day 5 tick tock goes the clock even for The Doctor

Well I really wish it was easier to know who was killed and what team.  It just says Drone.  But is Khush is confessing he is mafia...we should just all vote for him anyway...right?  Right?  Anyone?

So no the mafias are tied again...I think.

This is good for the mafia teams, as they don't want their numbers to slip to make their end game harder.  The Townies should really be wanting to keep the mafias even...and well the Mafias really need to eliminate the other mafia ASAP to stand a chance. 

If I was mafia, my goal would be to hit the other mafia and then try to vote out the other mafia, taking the lead and having a huge advantage to take out the townies.  If I am the townies, I want to have each mafia lose another member. 

One thing is for sure...if a townie is voted out AND a townie targeted by the mafia...the other mafia has a golden opportunity to hit the other mafia, and have a big advantage into the end game.

Movies & TV / Re: Rate the last TV show you've seen

« on: March 20, 2015, 12:41:34 AM »

I watched the last episode of Arrow and I have to say, this show has weird pacing.  It's like they decided to finally take the show seriously and move toward an interesting direction.  However, the story arc they are working on feels disconnected from the general story at hand...which I think isn't very strong.

The Flash also has pacing issues with the show moving incredibly fast to tell micro-stories almost and get in and out, moving the plot along at a rapid pace.  It is interesting, but I feel it only works with the Flash, because he moves so fast things almost have to happening at the same time to prevent him from just instant winning the battle. 

So where Arrow seemed to be pulling 2 story narratives that feel disconnected but interesting.  The Flash's disconnected narratives actually worked for the better of the story.  Though honestly, at this rate The Flash can only have 2 good seasons, because these stories just seem too be too strong to continue.

No power ups.  Explained how I would pick the bomb word.  PS.  It is by random.org selector.

« on: March 18, 2015, 11:57:59 PM »

I do not understand the hate for Terminator: Salvation.  I thought it was an inspired and great idea.  To me, it was like telling the story what was happening in the future that led up to the time travel.

So you have this awesome future story, Robots vs. humans, and you see the humans are losing and they need a leader to rise.  But, also...it points to Terminators about to send their first robot to the past.  To me this was fresh and cool.

Then the idea of a robot that believes he is human...and the robots are trying to make a new type of Terminator before settling on more of a cyborg killing machine was fun.

Steam has really made PC gaming more viable than when I was growing up.  It is closer to console gaming than ever before, and still has its personal benefits.  However, it still has its drawbacks as well.

I wonder if I will ever get back into gaming.  I keep on waiting for the system that says, this is all you need.  Something that is fairly priced, will play all the games I want, and could want into the future.  The Wii was almost a perfect system for me, because of the Virtual Console...however, the account system Nintendo came up with...and a mistake I made when I sold my Wii, has left me without a any of my digital purchases and really soured me to Nintendo...until they fix that system.

I don't want a gaming computer, I just want to play the classics I loved and a few modern classics.  We will see if and when I return to gaming.  It is still the hobby I know the most about, even being out of the loop for 5 years.

So, Nintendo didn't quite have the money to buy the Xbox Division from Microsoft, so their teaming up with another company who has the other one third of the money needed?

Ha, that would be awesome if Nintendo bought the Xbox Division.  Can't beat them...then take out part of the competition through buy out.  Obviously, this isn't happening.

Maybe we can kill all the townies off in one or 2 days.  HA!!!

Actually, since one mafia is down a member anyway, they need to be careful.

I see well the last person can pick the words.  I am still working out the logistics about the abilities.  But Here are my thoughts, first each power will only be used once a game.  The eliminated player can pick which power is in play next round, but not which word.  To be totally fair, since it is a race to pick bomb words...it will have to be 100% random...using random.orgs word selector. 

Now for speed, yes the time limit alone, would not sped up the game, but the ability to race and pick the word you want, might cause incentive toplay faster, as will finding ability words, and threat of death.  Finally, this game will have more people eliminated each round from abilities.

And if the words to players become lopsided that is OK.  If nobody picks the bomb word that round...the word is used and another round starts.

The Flash has time travel elements at its core...however, I think they are going to tell a story about the dangers of time travel and then never do it again. 

So this next episode they will save the day using time travel...drop that storyline for a bit, as Barry learns more about it...and the Speed Force.

The the season finale will go towards stopping the Reverse Flash that rewrites time sends the Reverse Flash back but prevents Barry from becoming the Flash...and the world changes for the worse...big cliffhanger season ends.

Special Word Abilities:

Sniper Attack:  Pick this word and the 3rd person after you is killed...at the end of the round.
Shield:  Immune to one attack or Bomb for the next round.
Decoy Kit:  The next round you can play as another person of your choice.  (Making them in effect choose 2 words that round.)
Copycat: Next round you can copy the word choice of another player.  This will not kill either player, but will make that player either A) Change their word.  or B) Take the last remaining word for the list at the end of the night.
Extra Bomb:  Next round will contain 2 bombs, but you know where one of them is.


If you have any ideas for powers let me know.

Greetings one more time.

I am sorry to change again.  But after giving it much consideration, I realized I do not have the time to truly devote and give to hosting this game properly.  Khush is an amazing host because he is truly dedicated to making this game work...but I have concerns about my location and schedule will make it difficult to create a fun game.

So for now this game is cancelled.  I hope MopitUp or Khush can host and make a better game.  This means that we will probably have another amazing traditional game of safe words.

What if Nintendo was working on a new gimmick which was a 100% unified closed market os, that can run on top of another os...like say Andriod or Apple.  Then Nintendo could use its hardware division to develop a top of the line controller for devices.

Then they could sell a cheaper none phone portable device geared for gaming with this new os.  Finally, a home console would be included in the plan.  It runs on the same OS but is more powerful.  Games are all purchased into one unified account with 3 times of games.  NintendoM are portable games, but can also beplayed on the home console.  NintendoHome are only playable on the console unit....and the majority of the games would be NintendoCross which can be played on both, with upscaled graphics for the home, and perhaps unique experiences for the portable...this is a system generation I can support.

We should allow Khush to play as all his alts, however he can only vote for his alts, and only private message his alts, and only do night actions on his alts.

Plus, if the mafia hits a Khush Alt, they get another free hit.

Well, hey I got the first vote.

No retaliatory vote from me, because you probably are just a disgruntled townie remembering last game.  At any rate, this may be a game about time travel, but we have different roles this game...at any rate.  I will vote for a random.

Stratos:  After people were trying to fix your marriage...people will start to try to fix your sibling relationship.  My advice...if she joins never admit who she is...and in fact have her never admit she is a girl...gender neutrality is one of the best gifts on the internet.
