No, I can't. Why, you ask?Battle Mage wrote:

DESIGNER!
If a role is used here that has been used before, it's boring, and I would like to think that boring doesn't exist in a designer game.
I have bought a ticket, although admittedly, I am having second thoughts about having done so... Just because I "fer" the ticket doesn't make me scumz.mneme wrote:Foolinc may just be following, but I think SSF may have decided that he ph3rz teh t1k3tz...because he's scum.-

Nocmen!
So, 23 pages into the game and we:
1. Have deduced a method to remove a post restriction.
2. Are still arguing over whether or not the fair is a good idea.
3. Haven't really said anything else.
Wonderful...

I figured you meant in terms of outing roles, etc... My mistake.-

I am now sick. It's a pretty sucky week for me and Mafia, I can tell you! That being said, I've had a look over pages 1 to 6. Here's some things I picked up on:
[quote="Nocmen]Also, FL, it would be more helpful for the town if you just went and said my MS name, not using Nemcon.[/quote]
Well, with the benefit of hindsight, this suddenly makes much more sense.
Thyroidectomy wrote:Anybody not buying tickets is highly suspect.
Uhm,Thyroidectomy wrote:It does have something to do with the game, obviously. You want the town to win don't you?nobodyhad bought tickets at this point, so how caneverybodybe highly suspect?
These posts are intimidating and almost extortional, and esentially amount to "If you do not buy my tickets, you are scum. So, ZONEACE, whyaren'tyou buying my tickets?"
I would also like to note that between Nocmen's 68 (meeps) and 73 (plaintext), there was no mention of his name, and thus, something is wrong. Considering that there's an inconsistency within the first 5 pages, I'm not going to comment on Nocmen's PR any further thanFoS: Nocmen
Upon reading through Bamboomancer's earlier posts (the posts with all the "truth"), I have some ideas to what his role may be, albeit quite indirectly...
Basically, yeah, what I'm getting at with my above point.stark wrote:Vote: Tyroidman: With the combination of the RenFairCrypticness, and unnecessariy hostility, in my mind, he is by far the most scummy player yet.
Uhm, I can think of 2 people who could:Thyroidectomy wrote:Likewise, nobody would be able to design a role specific enough to counter mine. My role did not exist while any counter would.
1. The player who designed your role.
2. The mod.
To be continued later today, hopefully.-

If you're going to be sarcastic, make it very, very,Thyroid wrote:You really think that had a serious intention? That I was essentially saying everyone was suspect?veryobvious. If not, you're going to have to deal with everyone taking everything you say seriously.
In short, "Yes".
Not necessarily true, but that's another argument and irrelevant, IMO...Thyroid wrote:I only have one vote, you know.
"Would" is irrelevant.Thyroid wrote:1. Why would a player design a role so powerful it needed a counter in the game? This isn't a lyncher-lynchee scenario here.
2. What a terrible and boring mod.
Players can design roles to counteract their own rolesbecause they can.-

"You are theThyroid wrote:Please, design me a role that counteracts "you need to get the majority of people to buy tickets then you win haha!!!"Ticketmaster, ruler of all tickets! You have tickets to all the major events, including the local Renaissance fair!
Unfortunately, XXXX has stolen some of your tickets to that fair, and is attempting to sell them off to the town and steal your profits! Have him killed or lynched before he sells a ticket to the fair to over 50% of the players in the game, and not only will you prevent him from winning the game, but the town will see that you are truly the master of tickets, and you will become Unlynchable! Wowzerz!
You win with the Town."
Am I doing it right?
So anyway, why am I being told to design roles to counter-act "You win if you get >50% of the players to buy tickets", when the argument was initially:Thyroid wrote:nobody would be able to design a role specific enough to countermine.
It seemed like a good idea at the time... ='(Thyroid wrote:And even more peculiar, ssf, is that you seemed to have been extorted into buying a ticket. I'm not quite sure how to reconcile that.-

I suck at balancing games, but why does this matter? In terms of your role in this game, how does the fact that I find it difficult to come up with a role to balance out a similar role which you have made up actually matter?Thyroid wrote:No, you are not. Since the only way for the ticket seller to win is to advertise his tickets, you are including a role in the setup which exists for the sole reason to lynch the ticket seller.
It doesn't.
In short, what Twomz said.
Also:
...still stands.I wrote:So anyway, why am I being told to design roles to counter-act "You win if you get >50% of the players to buy tickets", when the argument was initially:Thyroid wrote:nobody would be able to design a role specific enough to countermine.
On that note:
This is exactly why I'm finding him suspicious. If the PR is for the purpose of gaining an ability,Twomz wrote:About the nocmen topic... if he is lying, it should be rather easy to tell in a couple of days (since he probably has a "visible" ability to go along with the restriction) so there is really no point in lynching him today.he has already failed, at least for today, and thus has no reason tocontinuetrying to earn it.-

Uhm, not really.Thyroid wrote:"Any role that wins the game like that would not be accepted."
"There could be a counter role."
"Oh yeah? Show me one that would work."
"How is this relevant? Get me back to the game!"
The argument seemed to jump back and forth between talking aboutyourrole, which is unknown as of this moment, and some otherhypotheticalrole which won as soon as 50% of the town bought tickets.-

I'm ever so happy for you.Shanba wrote:I suddenly have this warm and fuzzy feeling inside.
So, we lynched a Mafia member yesterday, and somehow, we managed to lose a Mafia member in the middle of the night, so yay for that.
We also lost Doc Senses.
As far as gameplay is concerned, I don't see any disadvantage in claiming what dead roles actually do, so, unless I'm greatly mistaken, does anyone wanna venture an explanation as to what Veteran Criminal, Mafia Scumbag or Doc Senses actually are?-

I may be reading too deeply into this, but I have a feeling that a Red Shirt, if it exists, will kill whoever wears it.jediknight wrote:I gave Twomz the yellow shirt. Out of all the people so far he struck me as the best option for a town role. Turns out I was right. Sadly it doesn't look like we will get to see what my poor yellow shirt does as someone else didn't like him. I have several more shirts to give away. I don't have any clue what they do. May I collect it off his dead carcass please MoS?-

"Vanishes into the void" doesn't seem like a kill method. Look at the flavor:Shanba wrote:
More detail on tss?somestrangeflea wrote:
Twomz's kill seems random.Shanba wrote:Alright, first things first, I'mma do something unconventional.
I want everyone's reactions to the kills.
TSS's death doesn't look like a "kill", TBH.
Does that sounds like an intentional kill to you? I think it was, as the flavor implies, a "suicide", or, possibly, an accidental kill caused by some other source.You decide that he departed to keep from being discovered as mafia.-

Makes sense. Yellow implies fear, and the most scared role I can think of is a Paranoid Gun Owner...stark wrote:In regards to TSS's death, I'm thinking that it was the yellow shirt, the yellow shirt of vengence.
Out of all the people dead so far, he seems most likely to "slip back out of the void".stark wrote:Also, even though TSS has been revealed and everything, do you all think he's really dead?-

So you are, in essence, an Inventor?jediknight wrote:In fact, I have no clue what they do.
I concur. With the increased number of votes needed to lynch, it leads me to assume that there are 17/18 votes in play.Shanba wrote:Oman, should you not have a fuckton of votes right now? Please demonstrate or die messily.
With 16 players alive,someone'sa doublevoter...
Oman?-

Gah, my math sucks. Thought 9 was a majority of 18.Shanba wrote:
wait wait wait...With 16 players alive, someone's a doublevoter...
fuck.
9 is a majority of 16, as MoS stated. However, there should be 17 people alive - neither tss nor I are listed in the player list, which counting it reaches 15. So we have a missing vote, or a missing player. Something doesn't add up.
failured.-

Keeping up with this game is not easy.
Therefore, a request:
Summarise the game in a fairly short post.
Once someone's done (preferably, someone else who got prodded), we can all pick holes in it and bitch about whether or not it's actually true. Then we can bitch and pick holes in that. And so on and so forth...-

So, you didn't tell us that your tickets roleblocked all the scum, because then the scum would have simply not did anything.much, and wasting it.Thyroid wrote:Complete and utter hyperbole on my part, but it was based on truth. Imagine if the mafia has one-shot abilities, or if they plan a big event on a night. Now they have much greater forsight. My ability can be devastating; now, it no longer is (although I suppose implementing your strategy is pretty effective.)
So it's not that your powers wouldn't work, it's that they wouldn't workwell.
Fair enough.
Thyroid targetted a single person? I would like explainings.ZONEACE wrote:Not to mention the fact that you still havent explained what you did when you targeted Shanba the night before he became king.
Surely scum will just... you know... lie to get out of whatever roleblocking-esque situation they may end up in.Sir T wrote:Then, tomorrow, I want to verify all claims to see who cannot do what they claimed tonight.
Not paying attention means you miss important stuff out.
I designed JDodge's role, it was a scum role when I designed it, and it does pretty much what JDodge says it does.-

Once the ability is used, any abilities which are normally used at night become day abilities, and vice versa.Sir Tornado wrote:SSF, what exactly does the role do?
This change is reversed either when the player chooses to, or that player dies.
The change can not be repeated once undone.
The initial switch can happen at night, but the undoing can occur at any point after this, Day or Night.-
