> [@Johnny\_Bravo](#): > > What happened? We actually managed for once to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat for once. At the end, it was **Astral** , **Cookies** , and myself, all Vanilla, against two Scum (\*\*Chronos \*\*and **Wolverine** ), and we somehow managed to avoid mislynching the final two Days to win. I do believe that was the last appearance of Chronos’ “vote-analysis program”, as well… You can read all the sordid details [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=592956)… ---

It was a classic comeback story, and Suburban and I got to walk off into the sunset all triumphant-like. ---

Also, fun side-note: [I used to put way more effort into being wrong](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=13461705&postcount=1266). I’m pretty glad my play style has mellowed out since. ---

Dusk, Day Four _EXT – The Town Square. CLOSE ON: **orthohedron** , as the noose slips about his neck._ ORTHOHEDRON Let it be known to all and sundry that my last words were these. In the end, the most important thing is – _A snapping sound, and trapdoor gives way. CUT TO: **Askthepizzaguy’s** rotting corpse, sometime later. He is wearing a jaunty top hat. He smiles toothily – well, as best he is able – and, improbably, begins to sing._ ASKTHEPIZZAGUY Just a gigolo, And everywhere I go, People know the part I’m playing. Paid for every dance Selling each romance Every night some heart betraying _As the singing continues, we CUT TO a secret spot in the middle of the forest. Yes, that’s right; we’ve wandered right into a MONTAGE. A shadowed figure addresses a few other shadowed figures._ SHADOWED FIGURE We have done well. Soon, my brothers and/or sisters… soon we will walk among them, and they will fear us. _The figure steps forward into the moonlight; we see only a bit – a tuft of fur, a long, angry scar, lethal incisors – but it is enough to know that we have set our eyes on the leader of the wolves. The singing continues as the other shadowed forms nod._ ASKTHEPIZZAGUY There will come a day youth will pass away then what will they say about me? _CUT TO – A room in an attic somewhere in Town. Another unidentifiable form stands looking out a window at the town. Behind this form, on the floor, we see dark, crimson stains._ ASKTHEPIZZAGUY When the end comes I know, they’ll say ‘just a gigolo’ as life goes on without me _CUT TO – Orthohedron’s body, swinging still in the moonlight, quite untransformed. Pizzaguy sits peacefully at the foot of the scaffold._ ASKTHEPIZZAGUY 'Cause I aint got no body nobody nobody cares for me… _CUT TO – More villagers, in rapid sequence. Sleeping, eating, eavesdropping, hard at work on tasks that are ostensibly mundane but somehow fraught with hidden meaning._ ASKTHEPIZZAGUY I’m so sad and lonely… THE MOOSE HEAD (from the Tavern) sad and lonely sad and lonely… ASKTHEPIZZAGUY Won’t some sweet Mama come and take a chance on me? _CUT TO – Pizzaguy. He doffs his hat, taking what’s left of his hair with it._ ASKTHEPIZZAGUY 'Cause I aint so bad… ## _FADE TO BLACK_ **orthohedron** , a Peasant Redshirt, has been lynched. Night Four begins here, and ends at 2:00PM Eastern on Saturday, February 23. Get those Night orders in, folks. ---

Askthepizzaguy, I will PayPal you five bucks if you record and upload a video of yourself singing that song, and share a link to it in this thread. ---

Wow, Hotel of Heroes. My very favorite game I ever made. Would there be interest in a Hotel of Heroes 2 if I made one? ---

Seeing as how I’m more or less hooked on this crap now, I’d say yeah. I want to play a few more and then I’m definitely going to try my hand at hosting one. ---

I’d play a sequel, Mahaloth. I’m actually kind of hoping to run a De’endee sequel sometime soon, too. ---

What would be the location of Hotel of Heroes 2? Electric Bungalow? Also posting updated signature. ---

I can probably run hotel 2 sometime in mid-May or early June. Astral, dnd2 could go before if you can get it ready. ---

I absolutely can get it ready. It’ll be a quick game, too. Day and Night will be a little bit different, and there will be no downtime in the game. Town gets to lynch someone during the day cycles AND during the night cycles. ---

Mahaloth helped me set up the first game, and there’s a wonderful moment in the setup thread where he says the exact same thing. 😃 ---
