DougFungus' Murder Mystery Tour (Inactive)

Game Master DougFungus

Some of us are crazy indeed. I think even I am only posting moderately often compared to some of you people!

If I'm posting too much, I apologize and just let me know. This is my first play-by-post. Honestly, I'm just trying to keep up most of the time at this point!

I feel like I might be posting and ranting too much, myself. This is my second time playing any games on this forum at all, so I'm not terribly experienced either.

I know my head is spinning from the acitivty here, and I spend ALOT of time in front of my computer.

Well it's partially the weekend. I am sure come Monday morn.... crickets chirp.

EDIT: Hopefully that won't be because of my death ;p

Or mine. :( I might not speak as often as some others, but I can rant a storm.

I'll say! :P I'll slow it down. Between being bored at work and rather hyper, I'm an offender. Sorry!

No don't slow down, this is building my ego to a whole new level!

I spend so much time thinking of this and trying to consider strategies that work, so I always come back to throw out ideas whenever they occur to me. And yeah, work's slow sometimes.

I'm pretty sure I was talking about my first round gambits in my sleep.

And to whoever bugged my bedroom: it counts as ooc so don't you dare use it

This game has gone crazy! In the Wolves game Simon had 56 posts total, Sir Jiminy in the Mutants game had 40 posts total, Ingilstadt is already at 24 posts and we haven't lynched the first person yet! I don't have the freedom to post during work hours, so I'll fall behind somewhat at this current pace, but by all means keep it up folks, it's been great fun so far.

It's just the weekend & the large numbers of people still around.

I awoke at 0500 with a really long message already composed in my head. Had to get up and write it down so I could go back to sleep.

I am just glad I am not the only who is a mad poster, lol. It's really astounding how many roleplaying posts I have made between all of the PMs and the game posts.

Thanks for the great game everyone!

Yeah, I've sent so many PMs in this one, and Meowmails take a special kind of effort to compose.

And to read. :P

Thanks for that. I have heard about the paizo chat when occassionally skimming through the FAWLTY threads.

Glad you had a good time today. Did you keep a transcript? I was feeling so rotten when I left work that I completely forgot. IC only. I don't think there is anything important, but just in case.

Yes, I'll need some editing. (removing time stamps, etc..) Hope your feeling better now.

Not so much. Posting to get a vote in while I'm vertical. Votes must be public, correct?

Votes for Lynching yes. Role things, No

Thank you

*shakes fist*

Cassie quirks an expressive eyebrow; "Would that work Lord Ryuko?" she calls up to the man on the balcony.

I think its a little late to post a reply in the Play thread.

Yes, Meowlesworth's suggestion could technically work based on one of the Lovers win conditions.

Boo on feeling rotten. Get to feeling better and come back soon.

I've only been in a few Mafia irc and irl games before, but I've read a lot of play-by-post ones, and I don't think I've ever run across one this convoluted. I mean, no lynchings, no assassinations, all the backroom soft networking, the power trips.

Seriously, if any of you haven't gone back and re-read the thread in its entirety, do it when you get a chance. It is awesome.

Edit: Morning coffee = obtained. Cleaned out the parts that made no sense. Posting prior to coffee bad.

I'm actually pretty surprised how much plotting and scheming has happened before even the first proper death. I'm not super familiar with these types of games, but I don't think that's typical!

traditionally I post mostly monday-friday....

Dangit! Get back from dinner, two new PMs waiting for me, but the voting is already closed...bah! Live my friends, live!

The waiting is the worst... augh.

Wow, that is pretty unusual. Two no-kill rounds in a row?

Wait...what?!? Doug, level with us....are there really assassins in this game, or did you set this up so we would just accuse each other and roleplay until we caught on? :P

Seriously, I am amazed. Despite Taraz's antics, I guess he hasn't insulted any of the assassins yet, lol.

All results thus far have been completely circumstantial. The end game list Rashida has requested I compile will spell everything out in detail. I cant say anything because as GM I must remain a completely neutral party. I've never seen a game quite like this myself either. I can assure you there are Assassins however.

If you want people to die I might suggest actually voting to lynch somebody.

I was totally kidding of course. That was a completely rhetorical accusation, lol.

Well, the rules say the protectors would know if they foiled the assassins, so hopefully somebody knows the assassins are out there. Cuz otherwise they are meeting up one after another, and that's no good. :S

Well done Eldon, surviving into the second round. First time in 3 games. :)

Well it's partially the weekend. I am sure come Monday morn.... crickets chirp.

I think we smooshed the crickets with a wall of posts. Poor crickets.

I know, right? I was sure I was going to be dead again somehow. Now to go catch up on the thread quick again.

How did I end up in So You Think You Can Dance: The RPG, I thought this was a Murder Mystery Tour?

Nope, there was a coup. It's the murder mystery hoedown now, take it or leave it :P

I have every intention of starting this as soon as I get my internet back. Currently posti g thus from a tempramental phone that has issues with the boards. Should have access again next week.

FYI, Just found in this in another thread.

I hope he has time to catch up on 600+ posts....

How did I end up in So You Think You Can Dance: The RPG, I thought this was a Murder Mystery Tour?

The next one will be set in a bowling alley. People will be switching team shirts and gathering in little huddles at the bar and at the claw machine. When in Rome...

"I think the game, will take a bit to start." Gently she hooks her arm in his.

In no way can that be taken a few different ways. (And that's what she said)

Cheap and prurient play-on-words:

Hilarious! Seriously, those are without trying? Man, there's a job at Harlequin Novels just waiting for you.

So . . . we're now in DougFungus' Dark Romantic Comedy Movie Mystery Tour, right?

Heads Up

Round 3 will probably end Thursday or Friday.

Get your votes in! Maybe just maybe, somebody will actually die this round.

It's going to be hard to see some of you pass on. It's so easy to get attached to these characters when they aren't dying left and right.

Yeah, the deaths are gonna be tough.

Like a holiday, it is a tempting idea to have time before the game officially starts for the characters to develop.

cheap romance novels indeed!

"Watching as Cassie makes her way to the buffet table, Vorian frowns, realizing that he, too, was quite famished. A momentary stride later and he finds himself with a bowl of some exquisitely exotic dish with a forgettable name."

Her names Cassie, don't forget it ;p

Who is also played by a dude. Its hard to mix that kind of imagery.

What round are we in?
It seems like 3rd.....
