Guest Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 It's possible that they did draft you, and you just died the same night. That happened to us with another individual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 I want to say thank you...a BIG THANK YOU to Prince. We had a lot of communication "issues" going on and if it wasnt for Prince taking over then we would not have gotten as far as we did.

Guest Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Shame he didn't stay dead >.> Really though, you guys played a good game, and I'm sorry that we kept pushing days so long. We were really only able to communicate around 2 hours before the end of each day, which meant that we were doing things like saying "If I don't hear back from X and Y by this time, we'll just send in this as our action, but if they say A, then we'll do a different thing..."

Brandonb Posted November 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 (edited) The Nightmare Becomes Reality It was too late for the Company, the Heroes were surely going to win the war. However, there was a price for their victory, there was going to be a bloodbath coming… and only one person was going to survive. These terrible events, these two sides pitted against eachother… there was nothing to be gained, only bloodshed. Riding in the back of her car, as her chauffeur was driving through a tunnel late at night, the droning sound of her engine hollowly echoing off the tunnel walls and through the sunroof… She snapped out of her subconscious haze as her car exited the end of the tunnel. Everything she had just seen… it seemed so real. Though of course, this was her ability. Seeing the future is what she does, so it didn’t even cross her mind as being odd. There was only one thing on Mrs. Petrelli’s mind… she had to stop the events she had just seen in her precognitive state. She had seen all of the events happening right that moment at the train yard, and on to 6 days into the future. It was too late to stop the events taking place at the trainyard, but if she could only get to her house. There was something there that she needed, it was her only chance to prevent this baffling loss of life that she had seen. Mrs. Petrelli ordered her driver to take her to her residence in NY. It was late, too late for parking enforcement to be around. She told her driver to just parallel park on the side of the street and leave the car running, she wouldn’t take long inside. As soon as the car came to a stop, she opened up the door and stepped out onto the sidewalk and into the snow flurries. As Mrs. Petrelli stood up, she turned and looked to see a little girl walking down the sidewalk. She was holding her mothers hand on one side, and a balloon in her other hand. The little girl dressed in a little pink jacket looked up to see the snow flurries filling the night skies over her head… Intro The Nightmare Begins A Dark Cold-Blooded Night We Still Have Plans For You... Attacking Blindly Blind Intuition Breaking Point Great job everyone! Thanks for playing and I hope you all enjoyed it! Many revisions for Part 2 have already been made but the game may not start for some time. If you have any additional suggestions, or any ideas for what the Unsideds can do that would parallel the RIE, please let me know. Thanks again to Ysan for writing the "Breaking Point" post, and to Frost for Helping me write the first two posts (he was isaac so he knew what was coming ), and to UR for helping me with the RIE, and to everyone who played!

Yoruichi-san Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Thanks, Bb! That was a lot of fun! It's a great game...with the changes to the RIE you were talking about it should work really well... Everyone, good game!

Mekal Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Great Game I think the only thing would be to use the RIE's... but it was a good game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 It was my first game, so I have no idea how it compares to the others, but that game was awesome I agree, it might have been better if we'd used RIE's more, but the only thing I would have seen to make it worth it is identifying the independents, who did a good job of making sure that wasn't worth it (by killing each other ). It really seemed to come down to "who is going to draft the spy?" and then "Who is going to draft Claire." On that note, I think another way of killing Claire might be good for next time around.

It really seemed to come down to "who is going to draft the spy?" and then "Who is going to draft Claire." On that note, I think another way of killing Claire might be good for next time around. Well, as you could see at the end of the game, it really paid off to know who the roles were on the other team so that you could organize your strategy around them (who is saving who, who was saved last night, etc). Claire is a great draft b/c she is the most likely to be alive at the end of the game. Isaac is a great draft b/c he knew over half of the roles the day before he died, plus he gets to find out who the saving roles choose, which would allow a team a near 100% kill chance. And Matt is the easiest to draft since his target is informed that they were spied. He also provides choice intel that could lead to a variety of good stuff, however, he dies easy. Then it's also a great idea to draft the MIAs so you can coordinate with them. This would have been a very different game if Ysan had been able to coordinate with her team, or if Mekal could have structured his attacks to go with the Heroes. Personally, I wouldn't be quite as worried about drafting the Spy/Matt as I would be about drafting Isaac. He may not have choice info, but he has the most info. And knowing the dead roles can be just as helpful knowing who is alive. I know you, and others, are putting alot of emphasis on claire, but she really wouldn't be the end-all choice of this game if people knew who they were killing. Seriously, the idea for the double-source kill to override the Linderman revival was placed there just so HRG would not be able to come back and make claire re-invincible. She's just as important to draft as any-other role, but the key to this game is info. And the Heroes had slightly more than the Company, so they won in the end.

Guest Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 True, but as soon as the heroes drafted Claire, we switched to the idea that HRG really wasn't dangerous enough to us. We could let him be knowing that Claire was going to be alive as long as he was, and it was going to cost the Company one of their precious kill actions to take him out. I agree that it would have been better to get information earlier, and would likely use the RIE more in the next game, but having a pair of people that were "invincible" until a member of the other team died was pretty friggen powerful.

Yeah, the night I died, I knew all but 6 people, and those 6 were in pairs, so if I knew only three more I would know everyone. I bet if I had survived that night I would have known everyone in that next cycle. Isaac is much more powerful in hybrid, he may start out with only a little, but the amount of info that he obtains increases rapidly. If only you guys had drafted me...
