If anyone is interested in co-modding a starcraft themed small game with unusual mechanics/win conditions, let me know. The starcraft flavor is unimportant, it's just to set up a 3-way fight. I want to check if there are problems with balance, or ways to make the game trivial, or if it will discourage discussion, etc.

Fun fact: with 6 players remaining, there are still 4 factions in the game.

Another fun fact: I've just realised it's possible for everybody to lose...

Poor - the werewolves suspect that GL is either the godfather or a town power role. That said, a LOT depends on how town behaves today - everything's still to play for.

Avengers:

Spoiler:

I was just about to hammer JSO! Phew!

I would have killed him (I think I can kill twice in a day) but 1) I wanted to save energy since I'm worried I'll be targetted by NK and 2) I thought there was a chance he wanted to be day-killed.

Straight up jester?

Spoiler:

Figures the one guy I know isn't mafia and the only person I'm aligned with gets accused first. *sigh* Now I have to figure out a way to get him out of it without putting suspicion on my back, because I have no defenses.

I'd be willing to check the set-up, but I think I'll be too busy to actually do any modly duties during the game. If that's alright then send me a PM. If it's too long for a PM I can give you an email address. No google docs, sorry.

I would like to try that. It would make nice expirience for my resume. However, I don't think I can contribute much towards the game setup.

Ok, this is surprisingly slow...I have no clue who anyone is, and I have no cyber actions, lame face

[eculc]

shadowrun:

Spoiler:

well, if t1mm's vote was to gauge a reaction, he definitely got one; KrO2 is panicked about the vote, and everyone's jumping on him over it. I suppose I'll see how this goes.

[UniqueScreenname]

Shadowrun

Spoiler:

I think it's possible KrO2 is one of the worse players I've ever seen. Why does he keep shooting down my help and making it worse when I told him he has to protect me! Forced alliances suck.

[eculc]

shadowrun:

Spoiler:

I honestly don't think that KrO2 is all that bad; He's made a few mistakes, sure, but I think people are jumping on him because he's the *only* one who has.

[BoomFrog]

Shadowrun

Spoiler:

I agree, UniqueScreenname is being pretty harsh. I don't even feel Kr02 has really made many mistakes besides making poor guesses about how the set-up works. He does have one of the simpler roles so he doesn't have that much insight to whats going on.

[ForAllOfThis]

Werewolf:

Spoiler:

So, did town start with a minority? I feel we got some pretty good lynches in so I am surprised we haven't won.

[BoomFrog]

Werewolf

Spoiler:

I feel like this:

Could it be that he was actually telling the truth?

is referring to this:

Trust me that FAOT is a big fat liar. He LOVES to tell big fat lies and does so every game he can. I guarantee he is not actually a pirate-ninja. That really doesn't fit with the flavor at all. He is probably either a cop or a vampire, (possibly both if the vampire is a mentor and recruited FAOT) I'll be interested to hear what he claims he investigated tonight.

Well, I was right that you were a vampire, and that you wanted to attract attention I just had the wrong conclusion.

[CaptainFinglass]

Werewolf

Spoiler:

Gah, looks like I'm about to be lynched. Sorry DBC, I tried Arguably, I still think it's a better idea to lynch scum though, because they have NK, whereas I don't. Either way, town is pretty much going to lose.

Werewolf (Boomfrog can't read):

Spoiler:

Me tell lies or overexaggerate my role? Never. Also, I didn't lie about my role I just didn't tell you everything and everyone knows white lies dont count. Also I knew you weren't town!! My scumdar has been bang on this game so slightly annoyed i'm not going to win.

Avengers

Spoiler:

Disappointed that the mafia didn't submit a kill Not that it matters too much, the real threat is the Skrulls.

[fshfood]

Shadowrun

Spoiler:

I'm really hoping to that we get something out of the cyber actions today. It really stinks that the mafia doesn't have a flat out NK. I'm concerned about what happens if we only wound our target, if they are going to figure out what we are up to and make us lynch targets faster.

Werewolf (Boomfrog still can't read):

Spoiler:

It dawned on me earlier that Boomfrog thinks I was recruited by the vampire. I wasn't, meaning his vampire theory is wayyyy off the mark. So that's interesting. I claimed cop so I'm not entirely sure why he thought I was lieing about that =/, as I was a cop.

[DaBigCheez]

Werewolf:

Spoiler:

Sadly, it looks like they're starting to catch on in the thread now what I've been laughing about for most of the game Namely, that there is no vampire, it was just something I thought up N1 and had CaptainFinglass (the Dawn Druid) put in the D2-start flavor - she controls daystart, I controlled dayend. It was never really supposed to have much of a point besides to sow confusion, and I'm amused that it's taken this long for people to figure it out, but all good things must come to an end, no?

Probably not going to end up winning this, but it was still fun to watch

[ahammel]

Werewolf:

Spoiler:

Man, for all that analysis for nothing. There are two wolves left: BF and I. I'm pretty sure Finglass really is the DD. I'm also pretty sure GL is a godfather (I'm a seer, I get cryptic role info).

Here's what's actually going to go down if Finglass is lynched: I'll have BF kill GL. If he kills Boomie it's LYLO. If he NK's or kills town, we win.

If I'm wrong about GL and he's the mayor or something (my clue was "...finally, head honcho man"), then the real goon can kill BF resulting in that crazy 1-1-1 scenario I posted. Or he or she (actually definitely he, because it has to be matt) can kill fearless and we win.

Of course if I'm wrong and there really is a vampire, it's pretty much "gg, vampire".

*sigh* off to analyze the pretend situation where there's only one wolf and we NL

Edit:

No lynch looks good for town, but it's pretty good for wolves. If Boomie and GL kill one another, I say "why isn't the game over? Finglass is a vampire, kill it!" Of course they might think I'm the vamp and kill me. If GL kills a townie, instant win for us.

[greenlover]

Werewolf:

Spoiler:

Both vig and tracker? I'm...not buying it. Calling it now: either his kill is "secretly ineffective", or its got a major catch.

Avengers

Spoiler:

Urgh im so confused now. I role blocked everyone last night, our kill was meant to go througn but didn't and I can't ask why as we lost day chat.

[KrO2]

Shadowrun

Spoiler:

So, I should probably mention that I don't actually know whether or not I'm scum. True story. All I know is I win if UniqueScreenname wins, and we are opposed to the mafia. That is all I know about my win condition and I dont even know if the conditional goes both ways. Or if we're also opposed to town. This could be interesting.

Mad Bomber

Spoiler:

I know I'm not in this game, but I'm predicting scum win day 2 or 3. Scum can just plant the bomb on whoever looked scummiest yesterday. They just have to stay out of the top couple of numbers for day 1. So maybe scum win day 1 if cjquines is town.

Mad Bomber:

Spoiler:

This seems like a really brilliant setup to me (has it been done before?). Since scum can pick yesterday's scummy player, town won't lynch yesterday's scummy player, but scum knows that so they'll pick someone else, but town knows that... and the carousel of wine goes round and round. So it should be self balancing. If the lynching/bomb-planting was done randomly it would be 50/50 who wins, since every day there's exactly 1 town-win lynch and 1 scum-win lynch. The difference is, will scum successfully influence the result of the game, or will they get caught trying?

Oh, and I'm just now realizing that I signed up to be a replacement. Oh well, this will be the only spoiler I read and I'm pretty sure there's not going to be 4 dropouts.

Avengers and Shadowrun

Spoiler:

HAHAHAHA the double voter in Avengers points out the possibility of a double vote in shadowrun, priceless. Also, am I weird for thinking Snark is an SK in both of my games. He is SO OVER THE TOP TOWN, and it's really weirding me out, I can't get a read off.

Seriously, neither of the two games can read this

[Snark]

Mad Bomber:

Spoiler:

You know what I hate? That when I see that KrO2 was first to post a Mad Bomber spoiler, I immediately suspect him to be scum. I know it's wrong to base suspicions off of when people post spoilers and when they're online, but it's so difficult. I'm fixing this problem a bit by adding a spoiler just to say that I'm town and highly suspect myself to be chosen as the bomb at least once in the first 2 days.
