Rogue has never been one for your side, and I don't fight eith any side she goes against. I don't believe she is present here, though, but I know she would not stand with you.

Your purpose is to defeat Apocalypse--but is that all?

I am always looking for my brother's killer and to find out who killed my people. As long as I am not asked to join up with any of those type I don't mind joining forces to fight off Apocolypse.

Wouldn't that give the sabateur a crowd in which to hide?

I couldn't agree more. Juggernaut, you would be a most welcome addition in the fight against Apocalypse.

What an odd assortment of team members. I find that comforting. We aren't falling into stereotypes here or past roles.

If you are offering a spot, Professor, I will join your team for now, and remain fully committed so long as I am a member.

Hence why small teams attacking together, not one big team...so results can be differentiated between the teams.

Im not asking Mutant First to merge, just to work together for the time being

I felt a well-rounded team was best. I believe we could use someone with your talents Gambit, although of course the other team members would have to agree. It would be good to have a familiar face at my side old friend.

[Swaggs]

Glad I got to catch up in the thread and chat for a bit.

I will probably be on very sporadically tomorrow, but should be on in plenty of time to catch up and cast a vote tomorrow evening.

I am off to bed shortly.

[Chief Rum]

Then we will wait to hear from the others. If it is okay with them, I will join.

I think Silver Moon could use your services, id welcome you into the team. Your powers seem to mesh with our current squad, but with your addition i wouldnt mind another physical hero(or magic) to keep a balance.

[DaddyTorgo]

if not Gambit, as I have said, I am assuming there will be movement in and out of teams as the game progresses and we could very well end up on the same side. And of course, assuming your innocence, I will always be there for you in your time of need, team or no team.

[Eaglesfan27]

[ooc]

Wow. 4 pages or so in a few hours. Skimming before bed. Looking forward to digging in with more depth during the workday tomorrow. [/ooc]

[DaddyTorgo]

had we moved earlier we might have been able to sway the hulk or wolverine...as of now...who's left? RA?

[ntndeacon]

Others are doing this so imight as well too.
Here is who iwould have chosen as Apocalypse..
Eaglesfan - Iron Man Mandarin is Iron man's arch nemesis. I could hide behind my hatred of that evil Iron man.

LSG- Captain Marvel a very powerful character

Chief Rum-- Gambit Using his past as a horseman to hide him in the open. Apocalypse cant possibly take HIM attitude.

path-- Silver surfer Galactus (sp) herald and what a cool board

[ntndeacon]

well iam off to bed myself.

[Poli]

Let's be honest, I've been gone so long, I wouldn't have a clue who to choose.

I'd run blade, barkeep, and schmidty, just for old times sake.

[DaddyTorgo]

Iron Man is still unattached, hmm?

[Blade6119]

Goldeneagle, or juggernaut, makes a fair amount of sense as well

Clint, I'm sorry, but your past association with the Black Widow isn't something I can easily put aside.

Betrayal in the name of peace is still betrayal.

Always a pleasure to work with a real American Hero.

[DaddyTorgo]

yes. i would welcome any of them.

Gambit, would you care to make your joining official?

[Talgian]

I too must retire for the evening. Dr. Doom, I have complete faith in any invitations to join our team you send in my absence.

[Eaglesfan27]

I'd be glad to work with Wolverine and his many talents.

[Chief Rum]

I will if I can. I was holding off to hear from others. What is your team name again?

[DaddyTorgo]

as of right now it's team "Silver Moon"

[Blade6119]

Originally Posted by Chief Rum

In the short term, its still Silver Moon after the two founding members(path and i)...due to additions(mr. w then DT, and now you) we are searching for a new name that is now inpersonal

[DaddyTorgo]

well i don't know that they'd be on tonight. so easier prolly to do it now and then it can be taken away should they have objections (don't think they would) rather than wait, no?

[Eaglesfan27]

[ooc] Off to bed as I told my wife I was just checking on something for a minute and she is complaining [/ooc]


Steve,

I would trust your judgment in just about anyone that you think should be part of the team, but I agree that for now, a team of no more than 4 would be ideal.

[Blade6119]

OFFER Chief Rum (Gambit) JOIN TEAM SILVER MOON

[Chief Rum]

Sounds good.

CHIEF RUM (GAMBIT) TO JOIN TEAM "SILVER MOON"

[Chief Rum]

Thank you. I accept.

[hoopsguy]

Later this morning I'll look to publish the list of teams, as I show them - remember that team membership must be mutually offered:

To start a team, bi-directional offers are extended between two players. A team name should be included (and must be included by the end of the day for it to be effective).

To add a new member to the team, bi-directional offers are extended between one member of the team and the new member.

Posts should be in bold.


Also, at some point during Day 1 actions should transition towards votes/attacks in order to begin the process of flushing out Apocalypse and the Horsemen. No rush ...

[gi]

Bloody hell! I step into a pub for a couple of pints and these Yanks spew out 7 pages already....

Anyone or any team looking for my unique talents?

Um Britian what are your "unique" talents?

I will consider joining the team, only to defeat the evil Apocalypse. However, my name is not Co - it is Juggernaut

(ooc)I feel like I am reading SQL statements with all of these JOINS(/ooc)

[Grammaticus]

I'm going to be buried running interviews at a job fair late this afternoon. But the end time of our day phase of 10pm should allow for me to get in and make a move prior to the deadline.

[Bonegavel]

Ok, so what is our first move?

[Talgian]

Fine by me, but it'll need to be made official.

Talgian Teams with GoldenEagle

I must be off to classes, but I should return around midday for some lynching fun.

I would defer to the Professor on that, and the other team members, but, of course, I would welcome you to any team I was on. It sounds as if you have already joined another, though. Hopefully that team will be fighting by our side as well.

Bon chance, mon frere.

[Chief Rum]

[ooc]I will be away all day at work as usual (although that will soon change, more details tonight). I will return in time to place my vote. I will probably depend on my new teammates to guide my vote, as I suspect there will be tons of posts.[/ooc]

See you all tonight.

[spleen1015]

Fellow Mutants First members, we need to decide on who we want to attack. To get full use of our team bonus I hope we can agree on who we want to attack.

I still would like to find one more member to join us today, but the one nice thing I can say about having a team of like minded personal is that I am far less worried about Apocolypse infiltrating our ranks than some of these larger teams that have accepted just any old person. I think it would be wise to see what type of agression some of the other teams start with and see who is willing to flex their muscle before launching the first strike ourselves.

Without any clear target, I might as well be flapping in the wind right now.

[Barkeep49]

I agree spleen. I think it's likely that Apocolypse chose a newer player so I would list gi, Talgian, and Bonegavel as possible targets for us today.

[Barkeep49]

One other point: While we only have 3 people, if two of us act together and one goes a slightly different route we're not missing any bonuses we could get.

[Alan T]

On the topic of who would Apocolypse have chosen, and many different people have tossed out their ideas. One thing I have tried to do in my mind is group up the players in this game into the groups that I see them belonging in as far as playstyle:

High-profile player (tends to be in middle of action, gets scanned early in games often)
3. Barkeep49 (Magneto)
4. Blade6119 (Moon Knight)
6. AlanT (Warpath)

Crafty under the radar vet (Often as good of a player or in many cases better players than the high-profile players, but does it in a different style that allows them to slide by for many days unnoticed before they strike)
1. Schmidty (Hulk)
2. Path12 (Silver Surfer)
7. Swaggs (Storm)
8. Anxiety (Hawkeye)
10. Ardent Enthusiast (Daredevil)
16. Jonathan Ezarik (Spiderman)
18. Raiders Army (Deadpool)
20. Mr Wednesday (Mathemanic)
21. SackAttack (Captain America)
24. Eaglesfan27 (Iron Man)

Solid Veteran (Tends to not necessarily be under the radar, but does not draw a ton of suspicion on them early either. All around decent contributer)
5. DaddyTorgo (Professor X)
9. Chief Rum (Gambit)
11. Thomkal (Cannonball)
12. WVUFAN (Dr. Doom)
13. Spleen1015 (Mystique)
14. LoneStarGirl (Captain Marvel)
19. ntndeadcon (Mandarin)
22. GoldenEagle (Juggernaut)
23. Grammaticus (Venom)

Newer Players (Not seen them play much before, so tough to get a great feel for their normal playing style from the few or no games I've been in with them before)
15. Bonegavel (Wolverine)
17. gi (Captain Britain)
25. Talgian (Mr. Sinister)


This is based on my own experiences, and others might have had more experience playing with someone than I so wouldn't have an unknown in the unknown group or might feel someone has a different playing style than I would view them as having.

Like I said before, the majority (if not all) of my picks if I had been Apocolypse would have been in the second group of players, as a proven track record of managing to slide by late into the games without being noticed or drawing alot of attention is important to a bad team.

gi - Captain Britain
Talgian - Mr. Sinister
Bonegavel - Wolverine

I would think the Wolverine would have some sort of regeneration ability. He probably heals more damage than most with each day. He can probably take more damage than the average player in teh game as well. We might want to leave him alone today.

Mr. Sinister could have some very valuable skills to the bad side.

I don't even know what Captain Britain was capable of, so I can't comment on him. at this point.

[hoopsguy]

Here is how I show the teams at the moment. Members listed in parentheses have indicated a desire to work together, but not cemented it with a bold/bold two-way handshake.

Silver Moon: Moon, ProfX, Gambit (Surfer, Math)

Mutant First: Magneto, Warpath, Mystique

DOOM, Sinister & Co: Doom, Sinister (Juggernaut)

LaResistance!: Hawkeye, Daredevil, Marvel, Spiderman (Wolverine)

FORCE: Storm, Hulk, Mandarin, Venom

???: (CapAm, Iron Man)
