Hey, just wanted to remind you that you have six VCs of flavor to do, pine.

Grrrrrrr I know. It's piling up and becoming a big task that keeps getting pushed down my priority list.

Do you want some help? I write some and I know this game ok...

Nah. I just need to sit down for an hour or so and crank it out. Once I get started it will flow, and then I can keep up easily enough.

Sticking to an established policy which players know about in advance is the correct decision.
Failure on the part of the players to take that policy into account is a failure on their part, not on yours; you owe them nothing other than a reminder of your rules.

Well, the problem is that I hadn't really made the policy explicit.

The hammer wasn't an unreasonable assumption.

I've read your iso.
You made your policy known on at least one if not more prior occasions and had a full games' worth of replacements' slots moving to Not Voting in your VCs.

Also, since you have made the call, correct play is to stick to the call even if it weren't the right one. (But I believe it was.)

Do I want to know why the worst's phone autocorrects two letters (PR) into ?

For those interested, the Inferno replacement was because he owned up to me that he accidentally saw setup information from this thread on James' computer screen. I appreciate his honesty.

Hi

James?

James Brafin

I have little experience with this big of a game, but imo, town is fricked.

On the contrary, the Town PRs have been getting lucky, and there are an obscene number of potential clears.

TW is essentially caught. He doesn’t make it to LYLO.
Skygazer and Profii have both been heavily wagoned.
MoI botched his claim, essentially locking himself into a slow-burning 1v1 with Ausuka.

I think Town has this in the bag.

Scum’s best chance might be to start shooting investigatives and hope the bussing between Skygazer and Profii saves one of them. If left alive, I’m pretty sure TW shoots MoI eventually.

Hmmm
Interesting

pretend I only wrote the second half of this post and then suddenly I had a good read at the end

also this is pedantic and imo has virtually no impact on game balance but I would argue that the informed townie is somewhat non-normal due to the fact that there's no date given regarding what counts as a recent whitelisting

oh btw if you want I will simulate and photograph a full game of and give a short write-up of what is happening in each photo and then you can use that for flavor even though you don't know anything about that game

You would have a fair point regarding the "recent whitelisting" thing, but there's no indication that HWS misunderstands.

The information that I have - does it relate to the new stuff in the entirety of the "changes to normal games" thread? (Regarding the whitelist stuff of course)

Everything in the changes thread is fair game. Aside from VT and Goon, every role has some aspect which was recently whitelisted.

Also this PM thread we exchanged makes it explicit.

btw thinking about the roles in this game led me to this series of words:

"compulsive weak loyal vigilante"

That would be a disgusting role.

I have a better one, but I may use it in the future.

Actions so far:

Raskolnikov loudly doctors Ausuka (Ausuka will receive a notification)
Ausuka fruitvends to brassherald (brassherald receives a peach)
Jingle visits the worst (Nothing happens)
GammaEmerald detects Profii (GEmerald finds no incriminating evidence)
Skygazer kills Almost50 (A50 dies!)
MagnaofIllusion chooses not to act
the worst kills A50 and tracks Ausuka (A50 still dies, the worst sees Ausuka visit brassherald)

Ausuka

In the night, you are jerked awake from your fitful doze by a clumsy racket. You catch a glimpse of , and are able to determine that he , though you can't determine his intention.

Brassherald

A courier arrived in the night, bearing a mysteriouly-giftwrapped . You are not sure what, if any, purpose it serves.

Gamma Emerald

Following xyzzy's grisly death, you go over your notes regarding , and come to the conclusion that, as yet, .

Following xyzzy's grisly death, you are possessed of an urge to . You wait until is alone, and slip some of the you conveniently have laying around into his drink. Confident this has done the job, you sneak about and around. Your stealthy machinations are creepy enough to see her !
