I love Multiball, but it is hard to separate it from looking at it as a different type of game on site.
I’m also a fan of experimental games, as shown with my Death Note games, LNT, and this one.
My Classic BooneyToonz aren't usually ever experimental, however, nor are my Normal games.

I've definitely disagreed with some normal booney game design decisions although usually in the 'ehh that setup seemed unusually hard for one faction' although definitely never to this extent

Only the people against it are the ones that are going to continue speaking about it, which it is what it is. :shrug:
Game’s crazier than usual, but had it been advertised as bastard like it should have been, most of this goes away.
Everyone knew it was bastard day 1 too, so it’s just semantics even

It’s abundantly clear, this wasn’t the case.

Yeah, Boon is hardly even self-consistent here
Boon only acknowledged the game was bastard on day 2. This was the moment when most of the game realised it was bastard.
And we didn't have the extent of it
One of the important things to do with bastard games is explain how bastard it could be, so that players know whether or not to consider lynching masons, for example. Lack of player expectations leads to inherent imbalance and frustration

Glad I did though, I wanted to have some involvement with this monumental game and I repped into probably the most interesting slot for me.

Gamma I'm pretty sure you had no point what was going on in this game at any point

+1
You spend the entire game trying to make decent reads, only to find out a slot you’ve been correctly tr and is mech cleared to boot, winds up switching alignments on the last fucking day.

I very much doubt he’d have honestly claimed like he did, if he had.

I have yet to see that role in any game.

Yes, but Boon said there was an a slot that could change alignments within the confessional. I believed a Psychiatrist made a lot of sense given that.
