I demand equal rights, I mean, uh, power. No, I mean health! Health care! I demand adequate health care for heroes and villans alike!

Day 1 results
The heroes and villains quickly set to work forming teams, many involving former friends while some represent new alliances. After intense discussion, the Master of Magnetism determines that Iron Man is an agent of Apocalypse and strikes him with a wave of force that threatens to rip the armor from his body!!!
Other members of Mutant First attack quickly and decisively, but Tony Stark responds with vigor. Although he is immobilized, a single thought triggers his famed repulsor rays, blasting a stunned Magneto off his feet. However, Iron Man cries in pain as a special arrow from Hawkeye's quarrel buries itself into the side of his armor. Smoke arises as the arrow appears to be burrowing through the armor and into the side of the playboy millionaire. Helpless to defend himself against a flurry of attacks, Iron Man wails in pain. Meanwhile, the forces of Silver Moon concentrate their attacks on Cannonball. The young mutant is nearly imperveous as he blasts through the air, not looking to evade anything thrown his way. He winces in pain as his former teacher, Professor X, reaches out to his mind, but perserveres. Suddenly, a playing card from Gambit explodes into him and he is thrown from the air! Sam Guthrie tumbles to the ground, as the irrestible force has met a highly explosive object. Mystique finds herself with powerful enemies and very few resources to resist their attacks. Can this frail woman sustain attacks from both the Hulk and Juggernaut? Apparently so, as well as a face-first introduction with Captain America's shield and Mandarin's electric personality. She is battered, bloody, and perhaps not as funny as she thought she was, but she lives to tend to her broken bones. As the smoke clears, only one hero has seen an end to their story on this day. It is Tony Stark who took the biggest and the most hits on this day. His body is gone! The astral image of Apocalypse appears: "I have claimed the first of your number today. Although Tony Stark was among the strong, he was overwhelmed by his so-called allies. When I have claimed eleven more of your number I will declare an end to this game" Night 1 is underway. |

Poor Iron Man. Mutants First chose wrong, and now we have lost a valuable member of the 12. Be wary, Magneto and your ilk. You chose poorly, and now it has cost us.

If you go after Wolverine, you will have to deal with me as well. He is my friend until I know otherwise.

Well I know not about mystique, but I will point out that those who attacked me chose equally as poorly. There is no good Day 1 solution as we discover time and time again.

The Apocalypse knew that Tony was one of the 12. I am very suspicious of anyone voted for him today. All must fear the powerful wrath of Juggernaut.

To clarify, this is damage that they would have taken before any defenses powers come into play.

Also what does it say that 3/4 of our one group was attacked? I'm honestly not sure but I think it must mean something.

I will come right out and put it all on the line, because I think this is how we snuff out the baddies. My arrow is specially powerful against armored foes and should have dealt five of the 19, barring pluses my tream may have gotten. -Hawkeye

Your group is the victim of your past actions. All are suspicious of you. Are you surprised your group would draw fire? You also were the first to attack.

Y'know.
I'm not a bit surprised by the outcome here. That's what happens when you rush to irrevocable judgement based on nothing. |

Correct gi, though not actions are done via PM. No voting and such.
I would also encourage our seer or seeresque people to scan Mystique. If Mystique is bad it'll take little to kill her. If she's good then we want to make sure she recovers. |

Is it? You were the first to attack Tony, who we now know was one of the 12. Is it stupid and supercilious that I pleaded with people to show more restraint, and we lost a powerful ally because of bullheaded foolishness? Or is it stupid and supercilious that you were the first to cast your lot - with two actions, I might add - and now condemn me for pointing out that you, among others, were foolish in your haste to lynch? |

Ok here is what I have:
Silver Moon: Blade: Cannonball, DaddyTorgo: Cannonball, Chief RUm: Cannonball, Path: Cannonball, Mr.W: Cannonball (5 cannonball + 2 bonus) Mutant First: Barkeep: Ironman, AlanT: Ironman, Spleen: Ironman, Thomkal: Ironman (4 Ironman + 2 bonus) DOOM,Sinister&Co: Wvufan: Magneto, Talgian: ----- , Goldeneagle: ----- (1 magneto) LaResistance: Anxiety: IronMan, Ardent: Mystique, LSG: IronMan, Jonathan: IronMan, Bonegavel: Ironman (4 Ironman + 2 bonus) (1 Mystique) Force: Swaggs: ---- , Schmidty: Mystique, Ntndeacon: Mystique, Grammaticus: ---- (2 Mystique + 1 bonus) Atlantic Alliance: Sackattack: Mystique, Eaglesfan: Magneto, gi: --- (Defense on Ironman) (1 Mystique) (1 Magneto) RaidersArmy: ------- Iron Man: 19 (12 counted for) Mystique: 11 (5 counted for) Cannonball: 9.5 (7 counted for) Magneto: 4 (2 counted for) I tried to break it down by player and team so we could also figure in bonuses. Some things in my mind, a bad guy not voting for Ironman would know he was one of the 12. So could possibly sabotage his own teams efforts on another person, or just vote off to the side. I dont see any evidence of sabotage in these numbers though. These numbers dont figure in added attack bonuses or defense bonuses though. |

So adding in the info from Anxiety and Barkeep, we have the following before defenses figured in:
Iron Man: 19 (12 counted for) (+5 Anxiety) (+3 Barkeep) = (20 counted for) Mystique: 11 (5 counted for) Cannonball: 9.5 (7 counted for) Magneto: 4 (2 counted for) Anyone see why there should be more than 19 on Iron Man before defenses figured in? I don't see how possibly the bad guys would sabotage killing one of the 12.. so I'm not quite sure on this one. |

Silver Moon, any thoughts on today's actions? Gambit will be gone all day tomorrow, so he needs to get a handle on what we will be doing now, if possible.

I had +2 to my attack, for a total of 3. Perhaps that's the miscalculation?

Admirable. Unfortunately, I see two problems here: 1) An attack and an immobilization is an awful lot of energy to expend on a Day 1 target, particularly when it's a pin-the-tail target. We haven't even had night actions to try to ascertain anybody's loyalties. That probably isn't the best time to be "bold," as you put it. Why would you expend that kind of energy when a Day 2 vote might be even more critical? 2) 3/4 of your team laid into Tony within 15 minutes of one another, basically, with irrevocable attacks. You were the first three to cast stones. There was no way for any of you to back off, and the early attacks set the tone for the entire snowball. Part of me wonders if the forcefulness of your outburst was intended that way. |
