Conquer Club

So I've got three ideas, need to gauge interest to see which one I'll do.

1. Back to the Future- Since there are multiple timelines, there will be multiple versions of the same characters (Biff, Marty, Doc) with different abilities and possibly different alignments.

2. Tim Burton-Don't really like his movies, but you can't deny he's got a particular style. Will probably stick to the better known ones (Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Alice in Wonderland) His director movies only, so no Nightmare before Christmas and no James and the Giant Peach.

3. Pirates of the Caribbean- In honor of the new movie coming out. Pirates are town, East India Trading Company is mafia.

Bttf! But only if you make me doc brown.

Pirates has potential.

I can't join since I already have three active games, but I will just say that a tim burton game without Jack Skellington is not a Tim Burton game at all...

Otherwise, all three sound good and doable.

Pirates sounds like it could be a crazy cult game but thats just me

Yeah there are a lot of games going on right now, so I'll wait till a few I'm in finish up. Once I see what people like, I'll need to figure out the roles as these are still in the idea stage. I'm partial to BttF myself. Whichever one it turns out to be, the other two are free to another mod if they want.

Pirates as long as we don't have to elect a pirate king. ^^

karelpietertje, the powerful, famous, and infinitely wise master of Dutch waters and territories, votes for karelpietertje, powerful, the famous, and infinitely wise master of Dutch waters and territories.

hehe looking forward to this

Pirates theme please!

Just give me a freelance pirateship and crew, so I can steal other ships as my fleet grows. Would make a fine cult

I see many options here

Pirates would, from the top of my head, include Lord Becket, Mr. Mercer, Govenor Swan, Elisabeth Swan, Will Turner, Jack Sparrow, Mr. Gibbs, Barb(ar)ossa, Fragetti and his sidekick whose name I forgot, Tia Dalma, Davy Jones and possibly some guys like Sao Feng. All in all it seems like a great story already, especially with all those awesome win conditions they'd have.

Hmm...guess I should work on Pirates then. I'll probably save the BttF one for later.

Tim Burton? Intriguing...

PotC's been done.

For the record imo Bttf>Tim Burton>Pirates.

I would definitely join the Bttf one. If you wanna wait that's cool, but count me in that one.

I'm not a fan of Tim Burton, and really the only ones I like are Nightmare and James and the Giant Peach. So if you do that one without those I probably wouldn't play unless some cool kats were involved.

I fucking hate Pirates of the Caribbean and will sit out for that one. But I'm sure you'll get enough support for it.

Tim Burton based on the film 9 would be cool.

The more i think of this idea th more i like it , what a fantastic game it could be. The nine dolls have already got there mafia roles! If you do it save no 6 for me

I just thought of a decent mafia theme, Battle Royale.

If it hasn't been done, would work exceptionally well with hard deadlines, and has enough characters for plenty of flexibility for game size and fakeclaims. I'm busy with Futurama after finishing modding of POTC and Terminator, but if someone wants to work on it, I would be willing to help.

One word - FUTURAMA!!!

I LOVE that movie, but the format of "42 students enter, 1 student leaves" appear to be too hard to be tailored into a mafia game. In the movie, people could form alliances, but they were temporary as they'd ultimately have to kill one another in the end.

Unless you want to have "the class" as town, "the professors+army+brown-nose students" as mafia and some "psychos" as 3rd-party (Kiriyama! Mitsuko!).

I won't work on it because I'd rather play it (and because I don't want to devote so much time into creating roles, win conditions etc).

I read the book myself. I think it would break down as having some town roles, some third party roles and probably a couple skers. Probably wouldn't make sense to have a mafia. Try to tailor the abilities to the weapons each person has. Also, hard deadline means that if a no lynch occurs at any point, random person dies, not the person with the most votes (per the collars). Could be interesting, but would take an active mod, and I am busy with other games right now to possibly think it through.

or just make everyone a SK, each assuming there's a town and mafia out there.

Oh wait, we did that already.

I was referring to you, mine actually had one non-SK

Actually I've been wondering how that fucked up set-up of mine would work if the players knew what the set-up was beforehand.

Might be time for a second JSM

I like the battle royale idea though more excited about the futurama mafia. Can I be fry? Id be dr. Zoidberg but no one likes him in the building and he's poor...

"A buffet[ oh if only I had my wallet with me."

"Uh it's free"

*frenziful eating noises*

Of course if I get rid of fry bender and leela...

"Good riddance to them. Now zoidberg is the popular one"

"Yes yes. Let's all talk to zoidberg"

But if I betray my friends...come to think of it dr. Zoidberg betrays fry or shows a callous attitude towards fry several times through the course of the series...LYNCHER!

Alsol I think zap branigan could have a hilarious pr...

You, Sir, might have just forced me to go home and watch futurama after uni - shame on you!

Don't even start quoting Futurama because I'll never stop.
