Serial Killer Round 64: The Marxist Menace | Cycle 5: Troubleshooter Victory!

[Aerosteam]

Y'know, ever since I started playing this game it almost feels like the entire time it's been one huge Serial Killer round. People have played and never came back, conflicts rising in and out about pretty much anything to do with the game...

And it doesn't help that I watched Space Jam yesterday. Also Battle Royale.

Snip

I might have to do the 'go around inviting strangers' again for our SK game to start.

I considered doing that in the EUNOPF, but Aero already has - and there are still only 10 people!

Eh? I made no announcement, twas Caramel.

@Aero: I know what you mean. I was taking a look back at the first few rounds I played and most of the players don't play anymore.
Maybe it's time to lay SK to rest? Perhaps if we give it a year off then people will come back. It seems all we do is argue.
Whatever the case, if we can't get enough players I'm just going to scrap the round. I've got exams coming up; it's not worth the hassle.

Ah, I dunno, it was one of you lot with the face thing and the moving picture avatar. Whatever Ive had too much to drink. Want some pie?

 

[Aerosteam]

@Frac: That's not a bad idea. Since you're the GM, you can cancel/end the round whenever you want. We could either:

1. End the round right here right now.
2. Wait for more players and have a regular round.
3. Start soon with the players we have now and begin a "mini" round, where we don't bring most of the roles into play.

Either way I'm in favour of putting the game in perpetual hold afterwards.

Want some pie?

What flavour is it?

WINDOW FLAVOOOOOOOOOUUUUURRR!!

 

[Fractral]

@Aero: Option three is the most palatable to me. How about we give it another day to see if anyone else does happen to join, and then run a round with just the Killer, Spy, and maybe one other role? And then if the majority agree, put the game on indefinite hold.

 

[Aerosteam]

@Frac: Agreed. Also the Killer, the Spy and the Medic were the only roles in play when the game was just starting, so we'll go with that.

 

[Fractral]

@Frappe: If you can find people to join, I'll be thrilled. But it looks like we'll just be wasting our time if we wait. As for afterwards, I suppose what I mean to say is I'm probably not going to be coming back for more games. You're more than welcome to keep playing if you'd like, but you may have trouble finding enough participants.

 

[Aerosteam]

@Caramel: How many people did you invite exactly?

 

[TheMysteriousGX]

Well, I'll give it a shot I suppose. Don't really know what's going on, but that's the norm in Paranoia.

Aha! A fellow Paranoia player. If you've spent much time playing it you'll be well prepared for Serial Killer, believe me.
OT: Welcome aboard, Loyal Citizen! Please collect your Bouncy Bubble Beverage from the dispensers on the left, and your Boot Polish from the dispensers on the right.
@Frappe: Wow, I'm surprised you managed to find anyone. I'll give it another day or so, and then we really need to get going with the round.

Cool, I've got some OrangeFizz boot polish and a nice refreshing tin of Black Leather soda.

I'm sorry Citizen, did you say ORANGE boot polish? Surely possession of such material by a RED citizen like yourself is Treason, punishable by Fine, Brainscrubbing or Execution?

Dammit, I knew I was forgetting something. Execution please.

 

[snekadid]

Well, I received an invite, I read the rules and.... while I've never played a forum game before, this sounds interesting. As long as the time limit to respond is greater than 24 hours(sometimes you're just super busy) I think it sounds like a fun distraction.

 

[Armadox]

*bows* I had received an invite? I would like to join if you would have me. Also, "Are you a Werewolf" and "Paranoia" are games I love.

@Caramel Frappe: Wow. Thanks for practically getting this round off the ground. I was a little worried there for a while. I really do like playing this game.
