Hello?

Hi all, It has been brought to my attention that I made someone in this community feel extremely uncomfortable with my presence here. I have no context for why that is the case, and I have not been alerted as to that person's identity. I had only found out today that this was the case at all. I'm al...

Re: Gojoe Memorial Mafia Thread

In terms of IRL mafia, I'm waiting on Blood on the Clocktower to ship to me; should be some time soon.

I don't get it.
As in, if desperate for numbers, I could play instead of mentoring.
No, why did you remove the letter b from my username?

Re: Secret Santa Game Thread

Tomsloger and Iso have both put it well in the past. Paraphrasing: "As any alignment, when playing the game, I'm playing a part as someone who is sitting there and solving. I may involve actual thoughts in that in the process, but fundamentally there's a separation between myself and my play, a...

Re: Secret Santa Game Thread

In the same way that scum Bessie becomes a caricatur of town Bessie, I think the same may be possible for Osie. I don't know Osie well enough to know for sure, but I think actually town Osie would have reconciled or ignored Bessie sooner. Nah, I was actively trying to reconcile for too long and tha...

Re: Secret Santa Game Thread

Confirmed. @Sniper - If people hadn't told me, I probably wouldn't have realized you were a newish player for a while, possibly into somewhere in late Day 2. I was rather paranoid of you towards the start. I think once you get your feet under you, you have a lot of potential to be a really solid pl...

Re: Secret Santa Game Thread

Rereading the first few pages again though, it seems to me that bessie just caught you redhanded and there wasn't anything you could do to get out of it. You were scum, she figured it out. Nothing after that was going to convince her otherwise. Also this feels like a really generous interpretation ...

The inventor's actions being immune was the idea, but the passives were supposed to affect the whole game.

Re: Secret Santa Game Thread

I don't really trust self-claims of how a person would have behaved as another alignment. It's pretty much an illusion due to hindsight bias. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I made that comment during and before the game as well and it's pretty much the number one comment I usually get on my scum game, that Day 1 is ide...

Re: Secret Santa Game Thread

Notes - I think I messed up the implementation of Osie's role - Osie getting the Catgirl role was completely random, however, I may have made that role scum for balance reasons anyway. - I had missed the part of Osie's role that meant it could target any player living or dead and that's why I decid...

Re: Secret Santa Game Thread

Yeah possibly the only thing in Day 1 that I might not have done as town was the manner of engagement with the worst. I'd either have engaged a lot more or a lot less, most likely.

Re: Secret Santa Game Thread

Lol. It was cathartic, albeit just reminding me of how frustrating Bessie's posts were regardless of alignment. (It would have been funnier if Bessie had responded to it, though.) I legit probably would have made it as either alignment, though. What did you find frustrating? Mostly what I was sayin...

Re: Gojoe Memorial Mafia Thread

The answer is obviously secret catgirls. This seems not SO far off from "red herrings", an idea I had floated for how to handle miller/godfather frustrations while still nerfing alignment cops (a role which is generally considered to be too strong on its own): Rather than tell anybody tha...

Re: Gojoe Memorial Mafia Thread

If you want to reuse the catgirl, here's what I'd recommend: Have one catgirl in the mafia and another in the town, so that the "catgirl" result isn't alignment-indicative Give the town catgirl an ability beyond the ninja-godfather-self-watcher so that they can be detected by a watcher Ma...
