The Traitor Game Discussion Thread Part 5

[Indigo Al]

He, Elektra, and Kid Chimera should form an evil axis against all things Traitor Game which would of course ironically become a game!

Oh, Schorn Schorn Schorn....the idea wheels are spinning!

[The Purple Skull]

Hmm. Maybe Al & I could take turns writing "Elektra", you & Purps could alternate Jimmy/Conan/Whoever, and DP could do the honors for KC?

Yes, Purps, I noticed your avatar and was suitably amused.

As long as me and Schorn get to write a scene where Jimmy/Conan defeats a Celestial using a soccer ball.

[Indigo Al]

As long as me and Schorn get to write a scene where Jimmy/Conan defeats a Celestial using a soccer ball.

And TM and I get to write a scene where Elektra just rants and rants at a Celestial...

[tangentman]

As long as me and Schorn get to write a scene where Jimmy/Conan defeats a Celestial using a soccer ball.

And you KNOW Peter Parker/BBM would write that shit, too!

Al: Hmm. What celestial rants could we produce? Maybe Elektra could "sneak up" on a Celestial and assassinate it!

[Schornforce]

No, no!!! You must call him Shinichi Kudo, for that is his true name and he must use random honorifics for no danged reason!

Furthermore, you must bring in *every* friggin' character that's ever been in Case Clos-- er... 'Detective Conan!' because his subplot trumps anything in your silly little game!

I just can't wait until the moment he and Ron Stoppable finally kiss...



"You're just jealous because I already know who the traitors are! Rules and courtesy are for the weak! Schornforce is *still* just pissy that I wasn't the first NPC kill in game XIV!"

[The Purple Skull]

"Fear us! We're here for superfluous reasons!

SUPERFLUOUS~!"

[Schornforce]

"Fear us! We're here for superfluous reasons!

SUPERFLUOUS~!"

"Oh no! Those are all members of the mysterious agency of men in black who tried to kill me! I must carefully and methodically explain to you all exactly who they are and go over the entire series so far because you're all stupid, jealous Americans who don't know every in and out of the mythos!"

And just so you know:

Conan Edogawa will never, ever, ever sink as low as become a traitor in a Traitor Game. Why? Because he is 100% virtuous without fault. Evil cannot under any circumstances corrupt him. Mind control? Nope. Deception? Too smart for that. And being the great detective that he is, he will always find the traitor and solve the case!

And now you know...



"And knowing is half the battle!"

G.I. JOE!!!!

But seriously, it would be cool to see someone play Conan Edogawa/Jimmy Kudo straight without reaching Mary-Sue levels.

[Schornforce]

But seriously, it would be cool to see someone play Conan Edogawa/Jimmy Kudo straight without reaching Mary-Sue levels.

It would, but the reason I wouldn't want to do it, is the same reason I wouldn't play Sherlock Holmes (at least not Doyle's version)-- they're too good at deductions and determining clues and stuff. Batman's a little more forgivable, since even though he's constantly referred to as the World's Greatest Detective, his crime solving mostly consists of punching people. In the face. Repeatedly. Whilst brooding.

That's why I'd go with more fallible members of Conan's supporting cast. He is sort of Gary Stu-ish in his book/show, as he's supposed to be *so* smart, but he is physically weak without his gadgets and *finally* made a mistake in one of the recent manga volumes. Still, though, I had a hard enough time with Dumbledore and Snape not somehow knowing stuff, since they're so smarty-tarty and all.

So now for the reveal of the character for M.O.D.O.K's tale...:drumroll:

Ladies and gentlemen
I give you the marvelous
Magical Mr. Mistoffelees!


Wait what not a Marvel Villain you say?True True all a fake but one of the letter's in the name are correct..and why can't theater take the Marvel Universe? Oh wait..yeah that whole Spider-Man thing....

[Jeremi]

An interesting choice and liked a lot of her stories she was in.Last I heard she was with Arcade now no?

Actually, the last time she showed up was among the Hood's gang who were tasked to kill Mr Negative.

That's why, despite the fact that she is as close to my typical character as anyone is, I haven't played as Veronica Mars.

Plus just do to the nature of the game it is hard to do things like "look for clues." You just have the host's statements to go on. Way back in the day we took a kryptonite ring and shoved it into a transformer's energon supply, causing it to explode. I forget how much of that particular kill was outright stated by the host in question. But if it had just been "and then the transformer exploded," how would anyone go about looking for clues? Which is what Sherlock Holmes or Veronica Mars would be doing.

Similiarly, while some of us might play supporting characters from the Ace Attorney series (GoGo Yubari has played Jake Marshall and Luke Atmey, Jeremi has considered playing Ema Skye, and I've been considering Lotta Hart), it'd be difficult to play Phoenix Wright as his methods involve finding evidence and confronting witnesses when their testimonies are contradicted by the evidence. It'd be hard to work in the usual proceedure in the Ace Attorney games (including Miles Edgeworth: Ace Attorney Investigations which mostly takes place outside the courtroom) into the context of a Traitor Game.

Cool! Just started getting into some of the issues with the Hood and find him to be intriguing in his own way.Mr Negative..eh..Read one of the graphic novels of the whole Gauntlet Spider-Man arc there and, while the idea of the character is sound, I'm just thinking maybe the Mr in front of the name was too much.Just my opinion though..i suppose they can't really have Negative Man what with the whole Doom Patrol and all.

Considering the back story of Mr Negative, I don't think there's anything wrong with the name.

Hood's pretty cool, though I don't really get why the villains actually followed him for so long.
