FakeGod's Through the Looking-Glass

[FakeGod]

Through the Looking-Glass

Intro

A boat beneath a sunny sky,
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July —

Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Pleased a simple tale to hear —

Long has paled that sunny sky:
Echoes fade and memories die:
Autumn frosts have slain July.

Still she haunts me, phantomwise,
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.

Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.

In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:

Ever drifting down the stream —
Lingering in the golden gleam —
Life, what is it but a dream?

At the beginning of night 1, there were 16 players remaining.

Therefore, DeasVail had 15 possible targets.

Only one of them is scum who was vulnerable to him.

At the beginning of night 2, there were 13 players remaining.

Therefore, Deasvail had 12 possible targets.

Only one of them is scum who was vulnerable to him.

Conclusion: Had DeasVail shot at random, he only had 1/15*1/12, or = 0.00555555556, or 0.556% chance of doing what he did.

"Oh? Am I really the only one left?"

Dark Alice stretched out her arms and legs, yawned loudly, and hopped on the bird-beast she tamed on her journey.

"Hmmm... I think I'll name you, Doduo," said Alice, "he was a good friend of mine, but I sadly lost him when I was escaping the Wonderland."

Alice smiled thoughtfully. She was free to do anything she wanted in this world. Looking-Glass inhabitants have been eliminated, including the nonsensical beast called The Jabberwock that gave her so much trouble. Queen Alice has been deposed of, and the Alice from the Real World has been sent back to where she belonged. She won't be able to return again.

"Come on, Doduo. Let's go write a new story. It will be full of new places, new people, and new adventures. No one can interfere with us now."

"This is my story."

Katsuki, TiphaineDeath, and Empking, aligned with Mafia, wins the game!

[FakeGod]

My two-cents...

First of all, congratulations to the scum team, especially Katsuki, on their win! While the vig was able to narrow down the scumteam to the last man, Katsuki never gave up hope and pulled through for his team.

Moving on to my thoughts when I wrote this game. I had originally planned to make the Alice games into two games, and did not include the characters of the Looking-Glass in the first game. (I don't know if anyone saw that!) If I had meant the first Alice game to be the "standard" game, then I think the second Alice game can be best described as a "continuation", or aptly, "sequel". As with the first game, I strove to make the game itself good, as opposed to relying on a special mechanic or unusual cast of roles to make the game special. The flavor design philosophy was "reflection". Every character in the game had a matching partner with a theme, whether it be Real vs. Fiction (for real Alice and Queen Alice), Friendship/Brotherhood (Walrus + Carpenter, Tweedledee/dum, Kitty + Snowdrop), Red vs White (the Red Court vs the White Court), or Power (The Jabberwock + Humpty Dumpty). The only one without a partner was, fittingly enough, the Dark Alice, who was an intruder to the Looking-World, and had no reflection. The game was balanced similarly, with a 14-3 split while including few town negative utility roles. Unlike in the first Alice game, I strove for a vig-cop balance, as opposed to a doc-cop balance, because I wanted to distinguish the tempo of the 2nd game from the 1st. To reduce swing, I had weakened the cop (resulting in Novice Cop), and removed the vig's ability to remove town or scum PRs. The compulsory modifier was purely for cosmetics, since I fully expected the Hated Townie to claim post 1, and the vanilla vig could always no-kill by shooting the Hated Townie. By removing the vig's ability to remove town negative utility roles, I was hoping to both force the vig to scumhunt, and to stop the vig's diluting influence on the town negative roles. For the scum team, I had ensured that the vig cannot kill the Rolestopper no matter what happens, and if the scum team was able to learn that the Jabberwock could only kill Vanilla, then it would allow the scum team to provide protection from the vig for one of their goons. In addition, I hinted to the scum team that there are no protection roles in this game, by giving them a Doctor fakeclaim. The final balance was deemed slightly town-sided, which was what I was going for.

What happened in the game was beyond any expectations I had. With a high priority target like Nacho drawing Novice Cop, I did not expect the role's power to come into play, and along with Katsuki's excellent d1 fake guilty play, town's investigative role was removed. However, the other side of the town balance, the Jabberwock, did not disappoint. After shooting with 99.45% accuracy (I did the math in the mod PT), DeasVail correctly setup-spec'd to realize that the last remaining scum is a power role and immune to his vig. Instead of using the setup-provided no kill (the Hated Townie), DeasVail proceeded to show off his ability to read softclaims and shot notscience in order to generate a no-kill. (incredibly stylish play if I ever seen one) Unfortunately, town did not heed his words, and lynched every single remaining townread DV had heading toward endgame, ending with 0% accuracy in lynches and giving a perfect (sans vig play) game to Katsuki. This was a game where one heck of a miracle worker PR was holding the town from falling apart, but it wasn't good enough.

I would like to again highlight the amazing display of skills from both Katsuki and DeasVail, and thank the entire cast of players for keeping up with activity and taking the game seriously.

This was one of the greatest game I have ever modded, and I would have greatly enjoyed this game had I played in it.

Thank you all for playing.

Until next time . . .

"Any last words?", asked Queen Alice, as she and the Red Knight readied themselves to destroy the intruder Alice.

The land around them has been torn apart. The battle has reduced the number of characters to the last man.

Dark Alice expended much of her power in her fight with the monster Jabberwock, and could barely could sit up. As the Queen raised her hand, Alice looked to the skies.

"Sorry, Doduo. I failed."

...

Peace resumed in the Looking-Glass world.
