I may be partially conflating role madness with explicitly unbalanced. I just vaguely feel like I've seen plenty of theme games that have entered queues with explicit no guarantees of balance, and I think there have been some great/est idea games recentlyish?

I'm happy (and I'm sure Psyche would be happy, perhaps after a month is over now) to be convinced that it's a good title by people but no one has really given any context to someone like me who knows you but isn't familiar with your games. No one has really given any specific context at all. The closest I see is Ginngie listing some justifications on why she thinks it fits but like, meh. It doesn't really convince me. Some of the nths are explicitly from people who haven't played in any Alisae games (annadog I assume, UCV, maybe others).

The burden is on the people suggesting and advocating for a title to explain why they think it's good and give context when context is needed, as it is here.

Honestly as I toss it around more it isn't really that bad and I think part of my thinking it is is a gut negative reaction to the rainbow spoiler text.

Ok, you're confusing role madness with insanity. There is a fine line between the two :]
Also I don't think what you are describing is as common as you think it is.
Otherwise I would know :P

Either way, I'm not going to accept a new title right now considering I just recently dropped one.

I figured, but I was honestly curious so I went and checked. Then reported my findings.

Yeah just wanted to say it in plain English so I'd stop being accused of join date elitism.

Maybe I should make fun of someone who joined January 1st, 2017.

Technically we're only 4 days apart but really I'm a whole year ahead of those suckers.

I'd be all too happy to provide context with limbo lifted as I am rather intimately familiar with Alisae's games and would not have given the support I did if I didn't think it was distinctly unique to em.

Ok Psyche, on a serious note, I kind of agree with this, because back when Bright Knight was suggested, I was kinda anti-bully yeah but eventually the joke became extremely forced and as such, annoyed people. Especially like during the SUPP. idunno, kinda don't feel like it fits especially considering my attitude and approach when it comes to games on the site.
