MOD ANNOUNCEMENT: Following the conclusion of Day 10 (depicted in the post above), Amazing Fantasy: A Spider-Man Mafia Prequel has been put on temporary hiatus. The game will resume in an official Part 2 (that I hope you all will return for) after I have run two smaller games in the interim...

The City of New York is still recovering from the worst Gang War it has seen since the 30s, and yet, now they have to come to grips with the horrible threat of everyone turning into giant Lizards. Even the city's most ardent protector, the webbed wonder, the Amazing Spider-Man, seems to have...

Ignore the deadline. Day 10 will have an extended deadline. I'll update it in the next vote count, which I'm working on now.

With a familiar DING of the bell, The Stock Exchange is now OPEN.

– Page 2 – Matt Murder-docked! By J. Jonah Jameson Late last night Matt Murdock was unalived by unknown sources in a back alley in Hell's Kitchen. Now if this were any other night and any other blind man we could probably chock it up to a robbery ending in tragedy. However on this night it has...

But Andjalo cannot be bailed out. Oh darn. That sucks. Guess he can't help then. I mean, it's not like he can use abilities while in jail. There are only a few people in the game who can do something like that... Too bad that Genius-Level Intellect ability of his can't replicate that, huh...

LittleGumball's bail has been paid. They have returned to the Active Player pool. Day 10: Amazing First Vote Count a.k.a. The "I Swear This Game's Not Dead" Vote Count No votes. There are 11 available Standard Votes, so it takes 6 to reach a Majority. This is not a lot of votes. Not...

I know, right? I made a fancy Daredevil sock account and it was never even used once. SMH :shrugs:

The sun has finally risen on a new Day, and for once, the main competitors of the Daily Bugle have the scoop! Check out the front page of the Daily Globe, hot off the presses this morning... What a shocking turn of events! Who will save the town from the terrible Spider-Lizard?! Oh...

THIS IS NOT THE DAY START POST Day 10 will soon break (tonight), but before it does, I have some important announcements. First off... Captan_Lunch has been Modkilled. He was Mafia-Aligned Sergei Kravinoff, pre-transformation of titular Spidey villain Kraven the Hunter. He's also being removed...

– Page 2 – Lain Seeks the Destruction of Town By Ned Leeds The Sandman, Lain, seems to be on a rampage today, attempting to lynch what may be one of our last 5 remaining Town players in the active player pool (at the time of fact check before the hammer), as of last night's results. Lain is...

Night 9 has ended. I'll need some time to resolve your actions. I'll try and see if I can't get mist of it done tonight.

The Sandman has defeated the combined forces of the Fantastic Four, and he's not taking prisoners. Susan Storm, better known as the Invisible Woman, lies dead at their feet -- a permanent reminder not to mess with the unstoppable Sandman! IT IS NOW NIGHT 9! With 18 players in the Active...

The combined might of the Fantastic Four is a powerful force indeed, a powerful force... But haven't you heard? Nothing can stop THE SANDMAN!! The Thing's might merely pounds sand, while Mr. Fantastic's stretchy form fails to outmanoeuvre the constant and superior shape-shifting of their...

The fight has ended. Please stand by while I tally results.

Not to mention, changing win conditions is not that hard if indeed it truly becomes insurmountable. Plus, who knows if Town and Mafia are truly the only two win cons that can end the game? They're the only two public ones who can end it but there are five secret win cons. :whistle:

That's a good point! I wonder if maybe there are other ways for the game to end than just the Mafia or Town win conditions? :suspicious:

Per the rules of the game, you can infer that if indeed "Supervillain" is one of the five secret alignments (I'll never tell), then players who share that alignment have the same win condition. This does not mean they don't all have wildly different ways of achieving that same win condition. :)...

Spider-Man is still M.I.A. and the villains are wrecking the city. Meanwhile, some crazy person claims they know the identity of the Green Goblin, and seconds later the Goblin appeared! Coincidence or conspiracy? You be the judge! But before anyone can worry about solving that dilemma, there's...

Maybe it's me? I mean, who better to post in thread minutes after I delivered you this alleged information than the Mod? I'm not sure @Freddeh even knows Day 9 started. Heck, I'm not sure he knows Day 8 started and ended... Maybe I should do an activity check on him and a few other players.

Technically, mod-confirmed knowledge can only come from the mod. So it would only be "mod-confirmed" for at most you, in theory, if this claim is true, allegedly. :shrugs: Just getting ahead of the people being mad at me when they take Vroe at his word and end up blaming me if he is somehow...

Sorry Gobbo. There are no characters named Vroendal in this game. Man, I'm getting deja vu.

As the sun rises over the sparkling city of skyscrapers, New York must contend with three problems. One, the Lizard is on the loose, and the reports are coming in that he defeated the city's hero the Night prior who failed to stop him from kidnapping an innocent child. Two, the Sandman is...

Spider-Man had the right ideas, if he was going to stop the Lizard, it had to be with his mind more than his brawn. Unfortunately for him, he was always more of a chemistry whiz than a biology pro. Desperate to make a cure, he was too sloppy in his execution, and though he tried attempt after...

That's time on the FIGHT. I must tally the points and declare a winner.

For most, the Night is over, but for a few, the action is just getting started. DAWN has yet to break, but that does little to stop THE LIZARD from prowling. The Lizard... AND SPIDER-MAN!! "Ssssspider-maaaaan!" the creature formerly known as Mint Elv shouts. "I knew you would come for...

As Jonah's Robot squeezes tighter and tighter, it's clear that, despite all his powers, Spider-Man cannot defeat this thing. Barring some unforeseen interruption, this "Spider Slayer" could quite possibly squeeze the life out of him (or at least squeeze enough air out of him to have him pass out...

It was (allegedly, according to the Bugle, not me) 3 non-mafia threats during Night 7. Who knows how many it is now? :whistle: :devil:

As the Spider Slayer's tentacles continue to restrain Spider-Man, he begins to realize his being tired from the Night before is not the only reason he can't pull away; this robot Jameson so smugly controls seems to be adapted to work specifically against his very proportionate spider strength...

– Page 2 – Triple Threat By Ned Leeds Last night our top investigators found that there were 3 non mafia threats to the town in the active pool as of last night, which is an increase from when we had 1 non-mafia threat to the town in the active player pool during night 4. The Green Goblin and...

Spider-Man has had a long Night. As he races to get home to shower and change (the superhero equivalent of the walk of shame?) before what is sure to be a long day on little sleep, he almost doesn't notice when he gets knocked out of the sky by a GIANT ROBOTIC TENTACLE?! "Don't tell me Doc Ock...

Unaware that Spider-Man had placed a miniature tracking device on her, the woman in the guise of the Black Cat led the costumed vigilante right back to her penthouse apartment... The penthouse apartment of local NYC socialite Felicia Hardy! But while by all accounts it would appear that the...

And that's time. The fight between Spider-Man and Black Cat has now ended. Results are pending my tallying the points.

The Human Torch has called in his teammates of the FANTASTIC FOUR! Mister Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, and The Thing have all joined the Active Player pool to assist their youngest member. Surely this is a good thing for the Town and a bad thing for those standing against them. Carry on.

Oh, and I totally forgot to mention but last Night the Enforcers had a rough encounter with Daredevil, who beat them up so badly that they all promptly turned themselves in to the feds and signed a full confession to their crimes. Asfinyti (all three of them) has been Arrested, without bail...

This Night was a long one, but for some it was longer than others... As the Black Cat stalked her prey through the Night, she rounded a bend to find herself face-to-mask with Spider-Man! "Cat, I knew you were a thief, but I didn't figure you for a stalker. Why are you tailing a...

Hilarious. I missed that. Night ended on the 25th. I am currently working on resolving Night actions.

Also, this is the second time in the game a player has literally Hammer Voted themselves out of the Active Player pool... Why is this happening? Can we not make that a trend, please? Unless there is some strategic advantage to voting yourself (and I can think of only 2 or 3 players for whom...

"The people have spoken. He's too dangerous to be left alive," said the Judge at Storm's hearing. "Although the state of New York will officially abolish the death penalty in 2004 (or 2007 depending on who you ask), thankfully, this is a prequel set in the 60s and 70s (or, in 2003 if you...

There's been a Hammer. Storm has been LYNCHED. Please stand by (do not post or send in abilities) while I put up Day 7's Final Vote count. Will take me a few hours probably cuz right now I'm burnt out. Barely halfway through the day and im already out of spoons gdi. XD The Stock Exchange has...

WITH A DING OF THE BELL THE STOCK EXCHANGE IS NOW OPEN FOR BUSINESS!

– Page 2 – The Hunt for the Green Goblin Continues By Joseph "Robbie" Robertson The Daily Bugle decided to look into SMS, who we suspect to be Miles Warren. We determined that SMS was Town aligned as of the time he was investigated last night. Last night, SMS possessed no bonus or hidden votes...

Yes, let us all do our part to summon the Bugle. Draw pentagrams on the ground, put candles at each point, join hands and say the name of the demon backwards. "ELGUB YLIAD!"

The pair of Supervillains were defeated by the dynamic duo of Spider-Man and The Human Torch, but though the villains lay webbed up at their feet, the job was not finished. Electro's power spike was growing out of control, and it burned right through the webs! The heroes could spend time...

Storm, I need you to take a break from the game and come back when you are ready to not take things said so personally. LittleGumball hasn't been this cruel to you and doesn't deserve this kind of backtalk. Respect your fellow players. That's Rule 1.2 you are repeatedly breaching. Won't ask...

If anyone else can help the heroes ensure that, it might be a good time to find a way to let them know... Shame nobody with such an ability has sent an anonymous letter to the editor of the bugle advertising to the heroes something like "hey if you can put supervillains behind bars, I can do my...

Before I reveal the winners, someone has asked me to make fights longer because a random amount of time between 9 and 24 hours just isn't enough to interact much with your opponent when you also throw in the demands of everyday life. Fair. I'll point out that the rules do not need to require...

Posting from my phone so apologies for the lack of usual flair. Wow Andjalo. Impressive display. You scored the maximum amount of points possible from the 9 fight posts you made in the alloted time, proving that truly none are superior to doctor octopus. That's 27 points for you...

The fights timer has expired (it expired somewhere around 4 AM Eastern Time). An admirable effort from those involved. I'll be along to post the tally of points and conclusion shortly. Also, there's been some request for me to step in to moderate conduct. Storm has been found in breach of Rule...

Storm has accepted Andjalos call for aid. ELECTRO joins the fight on the side of DOCTOR OCTOPUS! Storm, your fight post count is only 9. Make the most of them.
