WW CXXVII: Fight for the Cosmic Cube (GAME OVER see post #909)

[MrBug708]

Does saving CF save teh cube? Or does killing him save the cube?

[Zinto]

I am probably not going to move my vote at this point. I am a little intoxicated and there is not enough time for me to go back and reread everything you and narcizo have said to make a hopefully informed decision.

I have read your post and it is much too coherent, so...

Vote Zinto becomes more intoxicated

Central Park is looking might sparse. Only a few people are left to show up for the big event. At the last minute MrBug decides Narcizo is the one who must die tonight! Surely that will put an end to this all!

Narcizo is dead. Narcizo was the Scarlet Witch.

[MrBug708]

Ok...?

[Chubby]

Spiderman looks at his former ally Iron Man and says "You've doomed us all!!!"

With that Kubik gets a crazed look on his face. He sees that this is the opportunity he has seemingly been waiting for. Have they doomed themselves through their own lust for power?

[Chubby]

With evil in Iron Man on one side, good in Spiderman on the other; Kubik lashes out with a torrent energy completely wiping both of them out. They simply weren't strong enough without teammates to handle Kubik's attack.

Kubik wins major victory!
Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver win minor victory!

The game is over

[Chubby]

YAY i don't have to post in red anymore to explain things

[CrimsonFox]

*destroys General Ross too*

[MrBug708]

So why did Narizco die?

[MrBug708]

And F you to whoever converted me

[Chubby]

Sides were even 8-8 with Kubik as neutral. Kubik would be born when there were no more players alive who had yet to use the Cube. Kubik would have at his disposal all of the powers he had granted to the players alive at the time of his birth. He won if he achieved 1-1 good-evil in addition to himself.

When Kubik was born it was 4-1 good.

The order of who got the cube and when was predetermined. It alternated between good and evil starting with the Red Skull and then Captain America.

Starting day 2 (i think) there was additional kills available once per day. These alternated between sides.

The Cube was able to be used up to twice per cycle (to keep it fair)

I know hoops was kinda mad when he was duked and Danny revived. This was the hardest call I had to make all game. A bunch of people had asked to speak or know everyone on their side which was an easy NO. I allowed ntndeacon's move as I viewed it essentially as a conversion (at which point none had been attempted but I knew I would allow them, 2 would happen later).

Any questions? Fire away! I hope it was at least fun!

tie breaker, earliest vote

[CrimsonFox]

I converted you of course. Every time someone used the cube, I gained a power. I presume the same power you guys got. And actually Bug I was rooting for you to win it even if you voted me out. Not sure what Zinto would have done the next day.

Yes. Tho he was only able to use it if that player was alive at the time of his death.

I think Zinto would have turned on me. Once I was converted, I had my votes on Sndvls. I didn't think I had enough pull to get people off of Sndvls and it would have looked too suspicious.

I also came THIS close to switching my vote back to CF, but new if that would have happened I would also be suspicious. I wrote it out twice and hoped Zinto would just follow me

That every vote for Bug really F'ed with my head because I knew in a 1-1 situation, I was a dead man

[Autumn]

Wait, so how many conversions were there? And when did they happen?

Cubby was updating me every time I gained a power and I was absolutely DROOLING at what I had....but also knew it would take forever to get in the game. That's the only part I disliked

And by the time I DID get in the game I lost most of the powers I had. Only had 1 NK per night, 1 conversion , and 1 scan of allegiance per day phase.

[MrBug708]

Chubby - What were all of the powers that were requested? Mostly Duke/Kills?

I noticed you a lot in the thread but figured you were just bored!

I was indeed HOPING you would realize that voting with me was your only chance of survival or at least think that. and I saw you logged in...and totally expected you to change your vote back. I could just feel you waiting til the last second. I've been there so many times before. The only other thing that would have screwed me is if Narcizo woke up and both he and Zinto voted for you. Cause if Zinto swiutched to you I still would have had the tie vote on my side.

Question, why in the world did you reveal, Bug?

[Chubby]

Cube uses:

Red Skull/Autumn - scans as whatever side the seer is
Captain America/Danny - can not be normal NK'd
Magneto/Chief Rum - can learn allegiance of 1 player per day & night cycle
Professor Xavier/bhlloy - can learn allegiance of 1 player each night phase
Submariner/mckerney - died before he got the cube
Hulk/Darth Vilus - died before he got the cube
MODOK/SnDvls - can learn allegiance of 1 player each day phase
Thor/The Jackal - can not be normal NK'd + 50% chance of killing attacker
Scarlet Witch/Narcizo - kill Danny
Wolverine/ntndeacon - duke lynch onto hoops & revive Danny
Apocolypse/hoopsguy - kill bhlloy @ 8:59pm EST
Quicksilver/mauboy - kill Autumn
Doctor Doom/Telle - died before she got the cube
Ironman/MrBug - convert narcizo
Kang/jeheinz - died before he got the cube
Spiderman/zinto - kill ntndeacon

If zinto had not used the cube until after the lynch OR had used it to kill SnDvls good would have won

Reveal what?

I'll field that one. SCANS!

At the most point I had a nightkill (given initially), a duking, a conversion, and TWO scans per day cycle and 2 at night! everyone wanted scans.

I converted bug and scanned mauboy the same day sndvls was lynched.

I killed mauboy with my NK (boy that felt good for all the times he's killed me )

I had to have something to keep people from revealing characters so if they had powers or hadn't used the cube yet they'd lose all their powers/ability to get powers from the cube. In the case like yours where there's nothing to lose, votes counted double rest of the game.

I asked him before the game started if he wanted to be the secret character. I was going to try and grab somebody last second but figured he would be a good choice with delaying his own game. I had asked him to post about not being able to play at the beginning so it'd be a surprise

My initial claim was for PM powers with the remaining heroes but I stepped back and did the convert power. I almost asked if I could destroy the cube, but figured that was going to backfire

[CrimsonFox]

*cough* you guys used the cube to kill people?!?!? No wonder there was no one left by the time I entered! THAT'S what you meant Chubby. I get it.

[MrBug708]

At that point I didn't think it was much of a secret. Hoops mentioned my character and I never denied it.

I hafta admit, I thought I was a dead man when I got saved from the lynch. I was bluffing my way through thinking once I go, that was it for the heroes

[Chubby]

General Ross was merely a storytelling way to forseshadow punishment for revealing. I DID warn about it via the FBI news conference longbefore The Jackal revealed too

[MrBug708]

Oh and that was straight from the movie quote

[Chubby]

ahh good/evil list coming up...

[Autumn]

wait, so why did Chief Rum die? Did some players have powers beyond the Cube powers?

For those who were good, Telle, Sndvls and I were one evil group. We didn't know who else was evil and we had no powers outside of what we got from the Cube.

[MrBug708]

It was a fun game, I had visions of actually winning it for my team and then CF had to go and convert me

I was so pissed at Chubby when he told me

[Chubby]

Good:
Captain America
Iron Man
Thor

these 3 could PM each other

Quicksilver (could PM Scarlet Witch)

Hulk
Professor Xavier
Spiderman
Wolverine

The 1st additional kill choice was given to Quicksilver (good) and Scarlet Witch (evil). They needed to agree to kill Magneto (they did not know who he was) and would achieve a minor victory.

I didn't think they'd so readily do it

[CrimsonFox]

*cough* SPIderman killed WOlverine? LOL

A Stan Lee Special Edition!

[Chubby]

Evil:
Red Skull
Doctor Doom
MODOK

these 3 could PM each other

Scarlet Witch (could pm Quicksilver)

Submariner
Magneto
Kang
Apocolypse

which is why I picked you actually. YOu were the most good at that point I think. Was hoping it wasn't TOO obvious but then realized no one knew about the conversions.

no players started with powers, everything was granted by the cube. I wanted a game that was more open ended so all powers were determined by the users.

I have gotten frustrated with some of cookie cutter metagaming (which I freely admit to engaging in myself) and wanted to do a non-traditional game.

The best part to me was that after i told bug he was converted he PMs me "i hate you" then CF PMs me realizing it's 4-1 good at that point and says he hates me too

[CrimsonFox]

yeah when i entered the game and learned there was 4-1 good-evil so I knew there had to be a conversion at that point. Either that or Hulk was evil or something. I don't know comic books so I was going by what you guys said in the game to keep track of how many were left but at that point I realized I had to scan to find out as I didn't know the last evil person.

[Chubby]

and CF was pretty bummed that the person with duke power was dead so he lost that too

Ya...I only thought about conversions because I saw someone briefly mention it.

I wondered how I was converted and yet the cube wasn't being passed around. I should have known that it was you at that point.

Had the cube still been in the game and I got it back, I would have switched my allegiances back to the side of good, that's how mad I was

[Chubby]

It was interesting early with the "tweener" characters getting lynched and people wondering about who was leading.

I picked some characters who could be seen as both good/evil on purpose.

When everyone thought evil was leading early, good was actually winning
