It is a time of crisis for the Gou'Ald Empire.
Seven years ago, a small team from the long-abandoned Tau'ri used a Stargate to reach the planet Abydos, ancient stronghold of the Supreme System Lord Ra. Ra was the greatest and strongest of System Lords and had ruled for thousands of years - when he arrived on the planet shortly thereafter, the Tau'ri strike force should have been crushed without mercy. But somehow, impossibly, the Tau'ri defied the odds - they incited a rebellion much like the one that drove the Gou'Ald from the Tau'ri itself so many years ago, and in the ensuing confusion they snuck a bomb onto Ra's flagship.
Ra presumably died that day (certainly, no one has seen him since), opening a power vacuum at the very heart of the Gou'Ald Empire. The surviving System Lords have been fighting each other ever since. And for the last five years, the Tau'ri have been in the thick of the fighting, led by the notorious SG-1. They have rebuffed multiple attempts at reprisal, including a direct attack by the System Lord Apophis, plus several attempts at assassination or capture. They have allied with the Asgard and are rumored to be working with the Tok'ra, and they have grown more bold by the day - even launching a strike on the shipyard where Apophis's new flagship was under construction.
In recent months, moreover, it is suspected that another threat to the System has emerged. The identity of this assailant is unknown - all that is known is that they field starships with hyperdrive and that they have managed to eliminate several lesser Gou'Ald in a manner of months.
In order to deal with these issues, the System Lords have called for a summit of all their members - a summit to discuss what can be done about the Tau'ri in light of their inclusion in the Protected Planets Treaty, and to discuss defenses against the unknown threat, and perhaps even to anoint a new Supreme System Lord. Tensions ran high among the System Lords, as they always do when so many powerful Gou'Ald are together, but in the light of the threats the negotiations were making progress... until the minor Gou'Ald Ares was found in one of the hallways, riddled with ordinance from projectile weapons and a single blast from a staff weapon - the favored weapons of the Tau'ri and the traitor Teal'c.
This can only mean one thing: SG-1 is here. And now the System Lords must band together - or soon there will be no System Lords at all.

Welcome to Stargate SG-1: The System Lord Summit Mafia, a Normal game for 20 players.
Moderator: Taredas Reviewers: Prophylaxis, Zionite Players: 20 Closed Setup with Normal complexity
Day Start
Flavor Notes:
- This game is loosely based on the events of "Summit" and "Last Stand" (Stargate SG-1 Season 5, Episodes 15 and 16). Note the word "loosely", and be prepared for a few surprises!
- This is an inverted flavor game - Gou'Ald are town in this game, and people working against the System Lords are scum.

Also, a note - please don't try to meta me this game, I will be playing differently as either alignment in attempt to reduce some of my overnight effort.
I am holding my sign up hostage until the league scores are fully up to date (I don't think mvps were ever assigned for AG, even!) so that we may have a FULL STATISTICAL BREAKDOWN going into this final game of judgement and death.
*points a gun at my sign up*

8 days later and we've only filled half of the signups..that's discouraging. :/
It's just before the holidays, and the start of the Invitational wasn't that long. Also seems like a lot of people are transitioning to new places in life.
