Nicely done, **Sario**. And also to **Dante** for keeping things interesting and unexpected with the game management. For those old enough to remember: [_Underdog Narrator Voice_] The final climactic battle scene is fast approaching! Who will rise to the occasion? How will the obligatory car chase end? Will _Sweet Polly Purebreed_ ever stop chasing this story? Will our Hero save the Day, or will blood stain the streets until it is efficiently washed away by the emergency responders? Tune in to the next Episode! [/UNV] ---

ETA: That should be _Purebred_, not Purebreed. Damn typos. :mad: ---

\*\*MOD NOTE \*\* It is still Night Phase. Iā€™ve received most abilities. I can end the phase early if I get them all before tomorrow. I will keep you posted. Play on, players! ---

I do support ending Night early if we get all the orders. I like to keep games moving. ---

I agree. Letā€™s get this thing going! ---

Same same. If the night actions and votes are in, letā€™s do this. ---

Will there be explosions? We havenā€™t had very many explosions yet. ---

It has to build to the climax. Dante canā€™t ramp the action up if it starts at the explosions. ---

True, explosions would be nice if I can work them into a scene. So far itā€™s been more like Die Hard meets Final Destinaton. ---

Iā€™m sure youā€™ll manage an suitably appropriate final scene. Buildings exploding, thousands of rounds being fired, a car chase, a helicopter chase, more explosions, and a kitten, with the heroes riding into the sunset. ---
