Brightest Day Mafia, Part 1 - GAME OVER

[ToastyToast]

@Mr. Subliminal: We don't even know what the black vs. white mechanics are going to be yet. And obviously now, as it seems that not everyone is going to get their first choice.

My choices were:
Colored
black/white
non-lantern

Andrius could be cult. He loves white lanterns, so why put it last in the selection?

@mastin and Nikanor: Guy Gardner is one of the human green lanterns (there are like 3 or 4 in the course of the series). Gardner=second possible choice for the ring that chose Hal Jordan. In other words, he and hal don't really get along

STOP NINJAING ME

[Oversoul]

(Can someone fill me in on who Guy Gardner is? No knowledge of source material guy, here. In it because I was asked and we needed the players at the time, not because I'm a comics guy.)

Wasn't he an earth green lantern? Why would that be miller?

See yOu guys in a couple of hours.

[mastin2]

And if inHim's claim is to be believed (I certainly do), looks like the Red Lanterns are--indeed--our mafia.

[ToastyToast]

@Oversoul: See my post. 2 lanterns from the same planets...shouldn't happen

[Mr Subliminal]

@Oversoul: See my post. 2 lanterns from the same planets...shouldn't happen

But there were

lynch Andrius

Earth GLs.

[Mr Subliminal]

4

Why did you feel the need to (incorrectly) answer for inhim here?

All four GLs were present in both BNM and BDM IIRC.

[inHimshallibe]

None of that was mentioned as a reason. Has to do with Red Energy/Lantern-ness.

[mastin2]

So, who here disagrees with one of ooba or Andy being lynched for the first half of today?




...Mind explaining WHY?!? (Definitely not seeing it. Seeing cult/mafia there.)

[Mr Subliminal]

lynch Andrius

No I'm not incorrect. Beginning of GL series had the two of them go from rivals to bffs really quickly. THought it made sense from a millers perspective.

I felt the need to answer the question because I know a decent amount of flavor?

[Andrius]

I don't care about popcorn just claim then.

I've never done this before, but it's right.

Claiming Miller

So you'll flip what exactly to an Investigation? Be specific.

I like this overbearing, but very town, mastin. What've I been missing in Calcifer?
I AM town just don't think ooba'd do something that crazy-ooc as scum right from the get-go. He doesn't seem like a big gambit-er, even with little things in how he plays. Very pensive, very analytical.

UNLESS THE WHITES ARE CULT RECRUITERS TOO.
JUST SAYING, EXPECT SHENANIGANS IN A SEQUEL TO BRIGHTEST DAY.
/TINFOIL

ALSO, LARFLEEZE IS PROBABLY BACK.
AND SINCE WE WEREN'T TOLD WE HAD RINGS THIS TIME HE'S PROBABLY A THOROUGHBRED SK AND WE NEED TO KILL HIM WITH FIRE TOO.
AND THE MAFIAZ WHOEVER THEY ARE.

Unless Larfleeze is town? I mean yeah I read the Brightest Day Pt. I and he's not exactly KILLKILLKILLKILL but who else would it be besides him?
OH WAIT. SPOILER FOR SPOILERS, REMOVE IT IF YOU WANT DANA:

SWAMP THING

But I highly doubt that- I'd expect NATURE_IN_REVOLT Scumteam before SWAMP_THING SK but since the former isn't true then latter is more likely.
And he doesn't come out until BDM Pt. 3 yes?

Guy Gardner.

Soooooooo that means who's scum?


Guy Gardner worked with the Reds with Ganthet, so I'm assuming he'd investigate Red Lantern and that those guys are scum again? (LOL)

Andrius could be cult. He loves white lanterns, so why put it last in the selection?

Because it also came with "Black". You can't have White without Black, so yeah. And I specifically requested Saint Walker in my PM to dana. I'd love to be a Counter-Cult agent but I didn't want to risk BEING cult so no white/black for me. Besides, SAINT WALKER.

I agree with inHim_town. Me gusta POE.

TOAST HE SAID ITS BECAUSE OF HIS RAGE, NOT 2-from-same-planet syndrome.

- I wasn't saying you were incorrect about the setup facts. - You were wrong about why Gardner was a miller in this case
- For future reference, you should let others answer the question first (esp. since you know flavor and they can slip up)

Well that also destroys this particular pre-game speculation I sent to dana along with the choices:

- The evil white lanterns (Maxwell Lord, Captain_Boomerang, Osiris, Professor Zoom) will be the Mafia group.

Then he should be

diediedie

a townread,

kill it with fiar

, no?

[ToastyToast]

@Andrius: Given that he said that in the giant 25 previews I got whilst creating that post, STFU.
also, your speculating too much.

We don't even know who the scum is, which of white/black is cult, how the non-lanterns are going to fit in...all spec and no hunting, aside from some ooba-defense and mastin buddying....interesting *takes notes*

[SleepyKrew]

ooba, would you

you scum?

have self-voted if

don' kill me

you rolled a 14?

[mastin2]

who turned him into a jingoistic parody of an ultra-macho "

red-blooded

American male". This remains the character's archetype to this date.

^Maybe because of that?

Team affiliations Green Lantern Corps
Justice League

Red Lantern Corps

...Or that.

Guy Gardner as a Red Lantern during Blackest Night event.

And this...is...questionable. Though with this

Now powered by both of his green and red power rings, Guy seeks vengeance against the Black Lanterns and is able to destroy them on sight effortlessly with his combined weapons

It looks more likely.

- primarily aided by Guy wielding the two emotionally-strongest rings at once, accessing their powers by using his love of the Corps and his hatred at being so angry

I can see it, now.

[Mr Subliminal]

We don't even know white/black is cult

You know that there is a cult (the Black Lanterns).

[Mr Subliminal]

You get the

I'm town

idea.

[vezokpiraka]

WTF?

I picked 1)non latern
2)Colored lantern
3) Black/white lantern and I got a white lantern????

No really WTF?

[Candle Jack]

Mastin, if you're a lyncher this time, might as well claim target now and be done with it - letting a Lyncher win and the Cult Leader die is a good thing in my book. [/Mafia92]

Mass choice claim you say?

SnakePlissken chose Nonlantern/Colored/White or Black when sending in Lantern choices (pity, I'd have preferred the exact opposite order, I wanted possible White Lantern anti-Cult powers and I'd rather start Cult than be recruited anyways). Wound up colored lantern so...

Usually I'd be up for mass name claim (hey, it's me, I'm ALWAYS up for massclaim if the rewards outweigh the risks), but my extant research on Brightest Day says that there's a couple of role names whose roles are fairly obvious and probably should be kept hidden. (Speaking of that: Andrius, if you're town now might be a very good time to shut up about Saint Walker.)

Vote: ToastyToast

for now - post 100 reads off to me for some reason.

Pre-post edit:

@Andrius: Given that he said that in the giant 25 previews I got whilst creating that post, STFU.

Okay, feeling quite confident about that ToastyToast votenow. Seriously, his tone is passive as all hell, and utterly hypocritical about speculation to boot.

- Tar

[Mr Subliminal]

Let Toast bus,

lynch Andy

.

[ToastyToast]

We don't even know white/black is cult

You know that there is a cult (the Black Lanterns).

Oops. Well, that doesn't auto-mean white=anti-cult either. Sooo yeah.

@Candle Jack: My speculation thus far has been "don't speculate so much. For all we know white could be the cult (yeah i know i missed it its been a while since i signed up for the game)

How is my tone passive?

[mastin2]

Yup. Candle is scum, just like I said.
(Oh, and I can't believe it took me that long to realize who was talking in Candle. I was thinking, "...who would be in that game and remember VI-me?" I kinda forgot Tar was in that game. )
