REGENERATE: Ghatanothoa. For devouring Rex before the game even started. You have to love a bushwhack like that! "What happened to Murphy???" "I don't know! He was reading his mail, then he screamed, and now he's dead!"

Not merely dead, but petrified into a leathery statue with his brain STILL FUNCTIONING! Now that is true horror.

Late vote: JGT

Hurt: Yibb-Tstll

Hurt: Quachil Uttaus

Heal: Now that is a tough choice! I guess, all things considered, I will heal Nyarly, who seems to have a lot of detractors. JGT, how do you put the Mask monsters in your cup when Nyarly is the AO?

I'm not sure I understand the question, but I dump them in with the rest of them when Nyarl is AO. After a couple of times with only 1 Mask showing up, I tried Nyarl with a "filtered" Cup (just AH and IH monsters, as well as any monsters that can ever be considered Cultists, and ALL the Masks), and only the Skinless One showed up.

I suppose I should wonder if ranking him so low has hurt his feelings, and now he doesn't want to play with me anymore.

I should have been more clear. What I meant was, do you really mix the Masks up with the monsters already in the cup? Or do you just sprinkle them on top of the monasters already there? I do the latter and I make sure to always take the first monster my finger lands on when I reach into the cup. Naturally the result is a lot more Masks showing up :)

Ahhhh. Heh. You're talking about an "oops, did I do that?" style of Cup-rigging. Yeah, I do indeed perform a mass-shuffling, but I'm not above trying it your way, or Nyarlathotep-with-Spawn-Masks-style either.

Hurt Cthulhu, Nyarly: Two very big disappointments.

Cthulhu is only here now because of his reputation which

he earned somewhere else.

Heal/Venerate: Nix on that. I am not a cultist.

Hey, Nyarlathotep's card says to add the Mask monsters to the cup, and I'm adding them to the cup :). No rule-breaking here, and let's face it, Nyarlathotep needs all of the help he can get. Doing it this way I tend to see around four or five Mask monsters on the board per game, and that makes for a much more enjoyable experience. And this way you still have a chance to encounter Mask monsters in the Other Worlds. I fondly remember the time Sister Mary met the Beast in Lost Carcosa.

Hurt: Yog-Sothoth, I haven't forgotten my 3 devoured people

Hurt: Quachil, your tokens are too much for a dust-face

Heal: Nyarlathotep, stop picking on the Arkham Horror tutor! Come on
