I wanted to give Peridot agency to join up with the Crystal Gems/Town instead of just staying as a Third Party Survivor. It also highlights how Peridot functioned within the show--she only joined the CG's after awhile when she realized she wanted to. In this game, Peridot can avoid ever joining them, providing for a different series of events. Mechanics-wise, she needs to keep a low profile early on, though, which is the idea.i'm guessing that the peridot role is going to be interesting, because there's probably a good game-related reason to have her not a member of the crystal gems when you have the rubies from hit the diamond (and jasper) as the scumteam
Yeah, these are probably the best fake-claims I've made for a themed game so far.then i realized fakeclaims. good shit. these fakeclaims are really good
It'd be great. I want it to come into effect.that pearl account thing is awesome, hopefully skybird can do some cool stuff with that.
Literally said, "I hope you know what you're doing with the Baseball Event because I'm not even reading that."wonder what your reviewers think when reviewing your setups
Yeah, I tried to give them events tied to their fake-claim flavor that could still maaaaaybe have something to do with their normal flavor. Effect wise, all the events tend to be less out-right town-sided or scum-sided.i like how scumteam's powers can swing either way, which i guess ties into the anti-flavor-breaking thing
My process usually involves trying to distill something core about the theme into a public mechanic, then designing all the roles to interact with the public mechanic in the flavorful ways that they do in the source-theme.like actually how do you think of this stuff?!?!
I also try my hardest to make roles have good verisimilitude. I want the player playing as Pearl to feel as though they are embodying Pearl through their role, rather than just playing Mafia with a theme tagged on it. So I try to come up with unique mechanics that reflect a character's ethos and give the player the same sort of approach to the game that the character might have in the theme.-

It took three hours straight working to get all the alliance PTs up and resolved. At one point, I have over 50 tabs open on Google Chrome.

So, yeah not too worried about 80% of the hood.-

Mastin is also incredibly spot-on with hard scum reads on SirCakez and Reasonably Rational.
I'm expecting Yume to use their bodyguard/protect to keep Mastin alive, but I wonder if scum'll be able to get off a strongman tonight.
Right now, though, I'm thinking today is likely to end in a mislynch. It looks like a good 2 members (at least) of the scumteam will be lynched within the next 5 days, so I wonder if they'll stabilize with their Events. Hmmmm.
Regardless, I hope this turns out to be a real struggle rather than a stomp one way or the other.-

Welp.Oh, whoops. My bad. There's two scum there, but it's SirCakez and Cooldog, not SirCakez and RR.
Looks like RR might end up getting off the hook for awhile after all. Their deflects are too apparent to me, though.
It seems like CooLDoG is going to become another hot mislynch target if this stays the course, too. He often is in my games, especially when he uses his role powers in a way that backfires--that's not a thing likely to happen here, but consensus on CooLDoG is wavering more and more towards scum and he keeps pushing town wagons here as well.-

No. Because Peridot is a dummy player. So is Keep Beach City Weird.
Jesus
*cough*
please don't actually look it up and realize that the accounts for Steven Quartz, Amethyst, Peridot, Pearl, Garnet, Ruby, and Sapphire were all made shortly before this game started and that theretotallyis a Peridot account, made exclusively for use within this game.

They are really fighting an uphill battle here.
If they win, that shit will be a huge testament to their prowess as scum.
It's not as if they haven't been caught, either, but that they're capable of rhetorically sidewinding their town oppressors.
The no-kill the other night was an especially bold move.-
