Can you read and see what the reasons were though?

remember he's like
a wolf
so by giving him time you're allow him to have access and understand more wolf abilities.

And what if I'm town? I have a very strong ability and you making a motion to make me not have a chance to use it feels really messed up. How about you give me the botd for a fucking moment istead of just shooting me down whenever I try to be helpful.

Gamma, shooting your own teammate was going to give you a .01% chance of winning. I would have lynched you in LYLO, but not before then, after Chara was able to see that you actually did redirect a kill and didn't just perform one. IDK what everyone else would have done though.

Random, why did you have to be bad?

It was the best option I had *shrug*
Note to self though: beeboy is fucking terrifying

I think I would have before hand. I know I was town but Gamma scum has to lock me in as town anyway. There's no way to get there from his perspective. I actually suspected Gamma shot his buddy and was hoping Chara was relaying to help me sort it out fwiw.
Yeah, the problem with the Chara thing was that he ACTUALLY SAW HIM REDIRECT. :-/ I don't really understand why he actually shot his buddy as well as did a redirection action though, it sorta looks like(based on actions taken, not on roles, which I haven't dug into yet) that there could have been 3 scum kills that night?

*shrug* Maybe things aren't as they appear. I did forget that Gamma was part of the Parliament though, so that would have made it more likely he wouldn't live as long....

Apparently my kill with Big Zam was a redirect of the scum kill

bad at the game or scum? both are valid questions

i got kind of demotivated when i got caught for making a mechanical paly that didn't benefit me at all tbh
rly cool concept tho, look forward to playing in your next game varsoon
town deserve the win tbh, we were never gonna win it

yeah honestly this should just be counted as a town win

Yeah I kinda assed that up but VENMAR DIDN'T HELP

Guess the scum lost this one. Meh!

That's a great haiku about this game, give me props.

btw I tried to deny it but Alisae definitely had a point on us for you flaking out the way you did.

In post 4970, Varsoon wrote:I've also been playing around with a theme game idea that's a U-Pick where everyone picks a player that's one of my regular players and gets a role based on that player's play in my games. Every day would feature a modified set of rules based on theme games I've run in the past and players could vote for which theme to visit for each next day. I think it'd be a much more feasible and less bastard-feeling version of what I was going for here and I could run it as a 13p.

I’d love this
Plus I shouldn’t be in a situation where I can’t play like what happened in this game

Adventure Time and Regular Show I’d prolly have to sit out because I want to watch those as spoiler-free as I can.

It's kind of hard to navigate a space where roles and setup are reflective of flavor but alignment is not. I was never comfortable with seemingly random alignments slapped onto otherwise fitting flavor, which is why I've been doing all these weird/different approaches to flavor in games, like in Protomen and Space Dandy.

The best work-around are characters with ambiguous alignments in their series. Like, someone who is a double agent could be either alignment fairly reasonably.

Yeah what I did for he chess puzzle was I kept running it, figuring out the AI’s movement patterns, and figuring out the optimal route
That last question was a legit troll. I mention Avatar: The Last Airbender earlier; that was like when King Bumi asked Aang to figure out his name as the final riddle to save his friends (this is a Late Arrival Spoiler so any spoiler salt can be directed into a trash can)
