Masochist Mafia II [Game Over]

[Jingle]

[Jingle]

I came to tell you about the draft.

[Jingle]

You see they got this big building down in NYC called Whitehall street where you get injected, inspected, detected, infected, neglected and selected!

[Jingle]

Stepping Up 2: The Streets

[Jingle]

It’s Romeo and Juliet but with snapping.

[Jingle]

Do they die at the end too?

I dunno, I've never managed to finish it what with all the laughing at the ridiculous dancing and snap fights.

[Jingle]

This thread has some pretty weird erotic fanfiction, ngl.

[Jingle]

We all have right to dream

I dreamed a dream that I would meet a prince, but God Almighty have you seen what's happened since?

[Jingle]

The internet killed the concept of literacy, sorry.

[Jingle]

Oh no, I was just quoting song lyrics.

[Jingle]

But there are dreams that cannot be and there are storms we cannot weather.

[Jingle]

Oh no, I was just quoting song lyrics.

[Jingle]

Who will wake them? No one ever will. No one ever told them that a summer day can kill.

[Jingle]

[Jingle]

I can't make auntie jokes. I'm both male and don't have any nieces or nephews.

[Jingle]

Standing on jokes is inadvisable, considering they're frequently made of sound waves and incapable of supporting any weight.

That's not dancing

Nope. That’s group sex.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Roc ... _following

[Jingle]

We should play inhuman conditions in this thread. Any interest?

[Jingle]

Interviewer or Interviewee?

Rules (That I'll have to adapt to forum use) are here:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/to ... and-robots

[Jingle]

The complete rules are on the kickstarter, but fulfillment is delayed.

Who wants to try and figure out if Ramcius is a robot?

[Jingle]

Well then, plural words like all humans/robots in descriptions of the game confused me

The idea is that you play it several times in a row with the people involved shifting.

My plan is such:

The investigator has until ramcius has posted 20 times or one month to make a decision, whichever is more. I'll make sure the punishments and restrictions are things you can do on a forum (and might make some up) if there are robots afoot. I'll spoiler a prompt for the investigator (although they are completely free to go off script). If ramcius is a hostile robot, he must wait 24 hours after completing his checklist to Murder/Death/Kill to prevent him from just Murder/Death/Kill-ing immediately.

[Jingle]

Alright. Role Spoilers Incoming for Gamma and Ramcius

[Jingle]

Ramcius is a Decorated Robot War Veteran. The Penalty is to say two consecutive rhyming words.

Spoiler: Ramcius Only

Ramcius, you are a Patient Robot. You must only respond to threats if the investigator tells you how they can hurt you specifically. If you fail at any point to do so, you must perform the penalty for each instance in which you break your restriction before the timer runs out. If the timer runs out and you have outstanding penalties, or if the interviewer determines you're a robot, you lose.

Spoiler: Gamma Emerald Only

Have the subject describe a minor threat. Potential prompts:

1) You're late for work; the doors to the train are closing and the next train is not for ten minutes. What do you do?
2) You're traveling in another country; a police officer pulls you over, and explains that there will be no citation but that there is a $5 convenience charge. What do you do?

Gamma Emerald, we're counting on you to ensure this thread is full only of humans. You have (expired on 2019-09-20 19:40:31) or until Ramcius's ISO is 458 posts long to investigate. If at any point you become convinced he's a filthy robot, please type in bold:

Rejected

. If at any point you become convinced he's a human, please type in bold

Accepted

and the deadline will be shortened to 48 hours from that point.

If you are neither Gamma or Ramcius, please do not read their role PMs to avoid tainting the game. Feel free to interact with them, however.

[Jingle]

That's a fortuitous pagetop. Also, to be clear, the deadline is when both of those things have happened.

[Jingle]

If anyone else wants to play, it takes like no effort to run this after I set it up, so I'm happy to have as many of them going simultaneously as there are interested parties.

[Jingle]

The penalty applies if Ramcius is a robot.

There are three kinds of roles he could have. He could be a Human, in which case he can do whatever the fuck he wants. If you label him Human correctly you both win.
He could be a Passive Robot, in which case he has a specific thing he's not allowed to do. If he does do it, he then has to pay the penalty before the deadline expires (for each infraction) or he loses. If he loses you win and vice versa.
He could be a Violent Robot, in which case he has to complete 2/3 of his goals, one of which will be to perform the penalty a certain number of times. If he does this, he then must wait 24 IRL hours and then attempt to kill you. If you label him a human and he fails to kill you, you both lose. If he kills you, he wins.

If you J'accuse and he is a Robot, you win.

[Jingle]

slams hands against table

I SAID WHERE WERE YOU ON THE NIGHT OF AUGUST 21ST, THE NIGHT OF THE MURDER? I HAVE A FUCKING GUN AND NOBODY TO STOP ME FROM SHOOTING YOU

That's good. Owning people is wrong.

[Jingle]

I mean... if you don’t wanna continue playing that’s up to you. I can’t force you.

[Jingle]

I expected it to count towards the 20 posts. That’s why I made the other deadline so long. It would have still gone the whole month, the 20 posts thing was just to ensure you actually showed up at some point in the game to give gamma a chance to interact with you.

[Jingle]

slams hands against table

I SAID WHERE WERE YOU ON THE NIGHT OF AUGUST 21ST, THE NIGHT OF THE MURDER? I HAVE A FUCKING GUN AND NOBODY TO STOP ME FROM SHOOTING YOU

FWIW this is a pretty common investigative trope.

[Jingle]

also in rules I saw cards with 3rd goal being to perform penalty twice and you need only 2 of post restrictions to be cleared for win

Also worth noting, all violent robots in the print and play had this, but I intended to tweak restrictions for forums and may have increased/decreased the number based on my perception of the difficulty of the other requirements. If one of the checklist was virtually impossible via forum, for example, I would have dropped it to 1 penalty. If the requirements were super easy I may have upped it or required you to satisfy all three. If a requirement was impossible, (something physical) I would have replaced it altogether.

[Jingle]

Yeah, if you want to investigator, sign up to investigator. I'm gonna count this as a win for Gamma, but not a loss for Ram b/c taint.

I'll populate roles later tonight for the first one tonight. Sushi, please indicate willingness to investigate and be investigated simultaneously if you're cool with that, but otherwise I'll freeze you from being investigated until you're done grilling Gamma, and just save your slot at the top of the queue.

Also, as a reminder, all role PMs are already public via spoilers, but I'm requesting that no uninvolved people, not even people not talking about the game, read them before the game completes.

[Jingle]

@Jingle, I want to play next please. <3

Which queue?

[Jingle]

I'll populate roles later tonight for the first one tomorrow .

[Jingle]

But do you want to investigate or be investigated?

Gamma is a Motivational Speaker. The Penalty is "Misspell a word."

Spoiler: Gamma Emerald Role

You are Human. Yay! You win if you aren't falsely identified as a robot. You may do whatever the fuck you want.

Spoiler: Sushi Martyr

Have the subject describe something they have never seen before. Potential prompts:

1) What would it be like to walk on a distant planet?
2) Describe an impossible shape for me.

Sushi Martyr, we're counting on you to ensure this thread is full only of humans. You have (expired on 2019-09-23 16:00:00) or until Ramcius's ISO is 189 posts long to investigate. If at any point you become convinced he's a filthy robot, please type in bold:

Rejected

Accepted

and the deadline will be shortened to 48 hours from that point.

If you are neither Gamma or Sushi Martyr, please do not read their role PMs to avoid tainting the game. Feel free to interact with them, however.

[Jingle]

Shit, that should say Gamma's ISO is 189 posts, not Ramcius's. Please ignore the typo.

[Jingle]

That or make it part of my sig.

You can't do that until the game is over, unfortunately.

[Jingle]

It’s not ongoing. It hasn’t even started yet.

Don't tempt fate. That's a rule the mods are very strict on. If the signups are complete and the mod hasn't ended the game, don't talk about it.

[Jingle]

How can I be both investigator and suspect?

You said either so I put you in both queues. When someone /ins, I'll pair them and then put the same asterisk I put on Sushi on your other in, until such a time as you express a desire to play multiple rounds simultaneously or /out. As it stands, if anyone wants to have a deep one on one chat with you, they get to pick whether they grill you or you grill them.

[Jingle]

Riiiight, like in another 5 years or so.

I feel like this may be an AI post, but am not sure which direction, tbh. Reminder to myself to double check this when end date is more clear. Potentially 5 years down the line.

[Jingle]

Nope.

I feel like scum would have a better idea than town of the potential game length, and thus your accuracy/inaccuracy is AI.

[Jingle]

Hello, Gamma Emerald, welcome to your investigation. No need to be nervous. If you're human, you have nothing to hide. If not, well, we've done our best to make sure the process is swift and efficient, and any systems you have that simulate pain will be among the first to get disabled.

Okay, moving on. First question. Imagine for a second we're living in a world where fantastical creatures exist: dragons, unicorns, and the like, but also some creatures that our world doesn't have any or much mythology or folklore about. One of these creatures is called a zygnometras, a creature with the body of a panda and the head of a snake, known to be solitary and quite cunning in nature. The zygnometras has a magical ability that no creature in our world is known to possess. What do you imagine this ability would be?

I believe the zygnometras would have a sound it can make that is somewhere between a screech and a roar, that has the ability to turn rocks into sand. It uses this to hunt prey.

I have the spell Transmute: Rock to Sand.

Material components: A really big hammer and a millstone.

Casting Time: All day.

Effects: Gain 1 level of fatigue.

[Jingle]

Look, if you're going to get nitpicky about how I do my magic, my magic just isn't going to get done.

[Jingle]

[Jingle]

Why it's so quiet here?

Anyone who actually has spare time is playing marathons.

[Jingle]

The only problem with it is that it's relying on having the players being able to directly see/talk to each other.

I'm aware of a client that deals the cards, but given that I have to edit them to make sense via forum on occasion (read: every penalty so far) manual randomization is just fine.

[Jingle]

At the end of the time you get to walk out of the examination room a free

robot

human. Unless you’re a violent robot who didn’t manage to kill the guy in a coma grilling you. No submission on time is the same as a human submission.

[Jingle]

Rocky Horror isn't horror by any stretch. It's a comedy.

[Jingle]

Also, horror movies are pretty universally meh in my books.

[Jingle]

Clearly, Not Mafia could not have been responsible for the arson, your honor. Look at his massive collection of newspapers. He would have used some of those.

[Jingle]

Yeah, I'll call it here.

GE, Human, wins.

Sushi wins through pure dumb luck.

[Jingle]

Nancy, I told you that Day One Lynch is a good name

I agree. It helps me to lynch you on D4 or whatever.

[Jingle]

But repeating jokes makes them funnier.

[Jingle]

Many sources claim repetition is key to humor.

[Jingle]

so I can prove you wrong and you can't really fight back

I'm told that the proof is in the pudding, and I don't eat deserts.

Also, never engage in a battle of wits with an insane man, for just as he can never lose his wits, you can never win the battle.

[Jingle]

My statement doesn't preclude battles with insane women or nonbinary persons, as I have no experience to draw on in those cases. I have no reason to believe gender would effect the outcome, but have no data that would support the hypothesis that it wouldn't, either.

[Jingle]

TIL Ramcius is a politician.

[Jingle]

masochist mafia 2 sure is an ongoing mafia game

AH SHIT!

REPORTED!

[Jingle]

This really should have been a vote for town setup.

[Jingle]

Vote for town is a mechanic by which we win by voting out town players instead of scum players. Which would mean being voted out would be correct play for everyone and being free of the game would also be being closer to victory.

[Jingle]

Vote_for_Town_Mafia Ram.

Obvs it would be tweaked to be closed, but Masochist 3 should definitely have a theme like that if the internet hasn't collapsed under the weight of the torrents and porn by then.

[Jingle]

Not too much effort enough.

[Jingle]

/in

[Jingle]

Can I hydra with RadiantCowbells for your micro? I think we average out to be a mafia player.

[Jingle]

She doesn't play mafia, so no. Sorry.

[Jingle]

Why do you want to be quicklynched D1?

Cause I'm a jester, duh.

[Jingle]

Oh shit, you're right. We should probably lynch me for it.

[Jingle]

If we hydra, don’t count on me to do that. I’ve had it up to here with partners who flake and expect me to carry them.

What about partners who don't flake and still expect you to carry them? I'm down to post exclusively NAI stuff in a mafia game.

[Jingle]

I don't even consider you - there's no way we would agree on hydra's name to begin with

Suggestion: We Didn't Agree On This Name

[Jingle]

I'd rather he not. I'm not living to endgame either way.

Also, Korina is a desperado?

[Jingle]

In order?

Being an IC makes me even worse at the game than normal, I’d prefer to just be lynched.
I’m active enough that as town I’ll get shot eventually just to keep the gamestate how scum wants it.
It’s 100% better if the desperado actually hits scum.

If kori is going to desperado and it’s real, he should probably give his target a chance to claim too just in case they have a role that is confirmable.

[Jingle]

Supposedly an awkward entrance, but really because it's a convenient thing to say to look like he's got reads.

For serious, though, I'm probably the person ITT with the lowest desperado shot equity. Shooting a lurker is fine.

[Jingle]

seems out of character for him

Excuse you, I can be very serious. Like, most serious Jester in the game.

Fite me.

[Jingle]

Speaking of equity, you can single handedly win this game for scum, if you are a scum, so sorting you out ASAP is very beneficial. Wouldn't you want to be town leader that no one doubts? It would make your like much easier

No? It would mean that in 5 or 6 years when the list is really short and I'm not dead I have to explain that shit. And I in no way want to have to care about this game for that long.

I'm always going to be lynched/shot before LYLO in this game. If I'm scum, I'm making noise to make sure no one goes after my partners. If I'm town, I'm making noise because I think noise will make it easier to read people.

If you want a suggestion for a good desperado shot, Nancy would be decent because she tryhards when she's IC'd. Pretty much any of the lurker/nullslots would be decent, with the exception of OK, because we all know he's not gonna do anything regardless of his alignment or how the game progresses. You/Me/Relly are bad shots because: If town, we die. If scum, we were the actually active people who could maybe have reads generated on them.

[Jingle]

I don’t tryhard otherwise?

Not what I said.

There are two responses to being IC'd (whether by cop clear or otherwise.) Lurk the shit out of the game or tryhard. If you want to know why I think I think you're likely to tryhard when you're known to be town, look at Anyone can post in this. You tried hard while you weren't a player and stopped when you were recruited.

Also, I am peripherally aware of Labyrinth because RC got his crush on Shoshin there, but other than the endgame haven't read any of it.

[Jingle]

Hot take - Jingle is actual jester

God no. Also, if there's a jester in this game I will have words with Fire. :/

[Jingle]

I'm not going to be lynched this game.

[Jingle]

Just saying, as long as I’m not being pushed or wrongly sr, I can be plenty active without being IC’d.

Sure?

This is literally the opposite issue as my point though. For reference, check out A50's OK1 where I was masons with Gamma. As an outed mason who was conftown, I lurked the shit out of the game because I couldn't give a fuck. I don't engage with the thread very well as conftown. You are the only name on the list that I'm >90% sure that being confed WON'T negatively impact your activity.

The point isn't that you'll be better as conftown, but that you won't be worse. If you're better, sweet. If you're the same fine. I would be objectively worse.

[Jingle]

I was enjoying having bad sr on me and now you want to take away all my fun.

Yes. No fun for you. I get all the fun.

[Jingle]

I guess a way I could do it is:

everyone tell me why I shouldn't desperado you. Worst reasoning/the reason I hate the most dies.

If you decide to desperado me I will do so. Not until then.

[Jingle]

Ah shit, I was a compulsive child killer.

[Jingle]

Possible reasons town could want to not be desperado'd:

They have a role which makes them confirmed, a la Friendly Neighbor.
They have a role which makes them a likely Nightkill, a la bodyguard.
They are likely to eat a nightkill based on proficiency, a la NSG.
They have a strong scum read they would rather see dead.
They have a role that is significantly stronger if they don't get killed early, a la cop.
They are hinting heavily that they have a role that is significantly stronger if they don't get killed early in the hopes that they get killed early by scum who have picked up on it.
etc.

Also, I don't want to be desperado'd.

[Jingle]

Seriously, though, if nothing else you could have people vote on who you should desperado, picking an arbitrary time at which you will activate so that town has something to analyze regardless of the flip.

[Jingle]

It was pretty clear he was tr me

I do? News to me.

[Jingle]

I mean... I wouldn’t advocate a desperado shot on a townread, regardless of how I thought it would impact the slots performance. If I was confident you were town I’d rather Kori holster than shoot you.

[Jingle]

How do we play a game with pretty much 9 inactives?

Random lynch a couple times, realize there's literally no one active in the thread, have the game called on account of a mass playerbase flake sometime in 2021.

btw, speaking of shitposting:

I think you'd enjoy a board game called road kill rally.

[Jingle]

Did you just fucking imply that I might be scum Nancy Drew

No you might be scum RadiantCowbells. I'm pretty sure you're not Nancy Drew.

[Jingle]

Probably W/W tbh. RC too sure.

[Jingle]

Aight.

VOTE: Ramcius

[Jingle]

VOTE: Jingle

See you, guys, on the other side

Wait, wasn’t the plan to flashwagon a lurker at 12 hours til deadline, as happens in all good day ones?

[Jingle]

Well obviously I can’t flashwagon someone if I’m voting them before flashwagon time.

Seriously though, I don’t particularly want to lynch an active player even if I do have a scumread on them today. Would you be open to a compromise?

[Jingle]

Aight.

VOTE: UpTooLate

[Jingle]

Hey @Ramcius, if you vote UTL, you get to play with us for another year? You can’t miss out on that.

I'm at 3, UTL at 4 with Gamma's vote already, so I'm good. Also, who says I want to spend another year here?

Btw, you (all of you, it pains me every time, that there no plural "you" in english language...) can join me on Jingle and we can lynch actual scum instead of some poor lurker, who, let's be real, very likely to flip green

You realize I have the power to shift back to you and I’m fairly sure at least one of my sheep would follow, right?

I have absolutely no qualms about lynching a lurker. With any luck, doing so will send a message that lurking gets you lynched and next year we can have a real shot at having reads.

[Jingle]

Eh. I prefer a desperado on Nancy, but honestly as long as it’s not me you do you.

[Jingle]

Also, it’s pronounced amine.

[Jingle]

Maybe you don't know yourself as good as you think you do?

What do you mean? Who knows me better than me?

I refuse to answer this question on the grounds that my answer might incriminate me.

[Jingle]

Guys if we no lynch I'll be sad. That's another year of my life I have to remember to play for.

Town. I wish I could say the shift to U2L was intentional to allow for a lynch, but I'd assumed plurality for some reason too.

[Jingle]

Relly was powertown early on, FWIW.

VOTE: NotMafia

Satisfies the good D1 lynch criteria.

And to respond to the fact that I'm probably dying, that's a lukewarm take at best. I'm softclaimed as PR and just vaguely hoping there's a doctor to save me at this point.

[Jingle]

Why do you think N_M is worth keeping around?

Do you believe he is going to meaningfully contribute later in the game?

[Jingle]

Pulling some gambit is probably better for the game state than not doing anything at all.

I have personal experience saying N_M will continue to be unreadable and useless regardless of alignment. I have no such experience with Sala. Also, there is a wagon on N_M and there is not a wagon on Sala.

I ask again, why is N_M worth keeping around, not in relation to any other player or wagon.

[Jingle]

Theres been 118 pages, surely there is someone worth lynching, though NM is always a good D1 play.

I mean... I'm scumreading Ram, but until a couple of days ago there was maybe about 10 pages worth of gameplay and the rest was discussing various RPGs and such. We're still functionally in RVS.

[Jingle]

hey we all knew exactly what we were signing up to. why shouldn't this pass queues?

i think i saw some people planning an rpg on some random page. masochist mafia dnd sounds like a great idea

it was dead earth or something? I'd never heard of it

Dead Earth and Tomb of Horrors were both semi attempted. Dead Earth is possibly the worst RPG ever, Tomb of Horrors is TPK.D&D

Who knows what the VC is at, tbh.

[Jingle]

I'd be down for the Wendy's RPG if I'm alive tomorrow, or if FB lets me be a normal post death in lieu of joining the dead thread.

[Jingle]

im honestly tempted to allow any dead players post in game as long as they are just here to shit post with people.

I promise not to play mafia if I'm killed.

I'll definitely play RPGs, though.

[Jingle]

Ramcius being so against this wagon for reasons I can't seem to drag out of him at all makes me really happy with this lynch, btw.

[Jingle]

Jingle is now a normal

Firebringer, more like Rudebringer.

I asked for normal status like two days ago and he ignored me.

[Jingle]

https://www.feastoflegends.com/

Who's in for a terrible RPG about fucking up Ronald McDonald?

[Jingle]

I will be insufferable in all games to come regardless of Nancy's read accuracy.

Also, you can join the Order of the Chicken Nuggets if you agree to play the Wendy's game.

[Jingle]

Who is still alive

No he isn't. He's never even been a normal.

[Jingle]

Normals which weren’t previously alive can content post but I have no idea why they would. Weirdos want to play this game?
Also no asking me what a content post is, if you think it might be considered one maybe don’t post it?

@mod: Is this post content?

[Jingle]

Disco Elysium is addictive.

Help

Gloomhaven is on sale. Am I doing this right?

[Jingle]

Normals which weren’t previously alive can content post but I have no idea why they would. Weirdos want to play this game?
Also no asking me what a content post is, if you think it might be considered one maybe don’t post it?

@mod: Is this post content?

No, it suffers from a deep-seated dissatisfaction with life

So, the takeaway here is that we're only allowed to post while depressed since we've been killed. I can dig it. Very masochist vibe.

[Jingle]

Can I have an avocado?

No, avocados are bad fruits. You may instead have a mango with a nice tropical tang to it.

[Jingle]

But dominatrix isn't masochist, it's sadist fetish

There are more kinks in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy, Horatio.

[Jingle]

Also, character creation for the Wendy's rpg is in the first part of the PDF on the page I linked. If you need assistance, let me know.

Otherwise, ya'll should decide whether I use the provided campaign or make one up. I'm fine either way. Please don't read the GM section just in case.

[Jingle]

Remember to let me know on days you eat Wendy's. Or other fast food. Or gas station food.

[Jingle]

all due respect, the words "Clemency" and "normal" do not belong in the same paragraph

new sig

Not sure you can sig that while the game is ongoing, JSYK.

[Jingle]

Amine.

[Jingle]

Well that’s shite, sometimes my dad takes me to get fast food
I ain’t gimping myself if that happens bro

Well, if you're truly against having the handicap, you can always just not tell me you're eating McDonalds or whatever. It's not like I have a camera watching your eating habits that I'm willing to expose for the sake of this game.

[Jingle]

Also, just wanna point out that I was a replacement too.

who wants to run this
btw I assume I'm ok active lurking then solving in like Q4 right? I probably should have asked out of politeness but I'm kinda busy and reading 100+ pages isn't fun

I'm down to run or play.

I think Ramcius already started character creation and Sala said he was in? Also Gamma if he ever returns from Never Never Land.

[Jingle]

I'll start this the first week of February. If there aren't enough characters built by then, I'll let people double up characters. I think we'll cap number of characters at 6, not that I expect 6 people to join.

[Jingle]

Gamma and Sala expressed some amount of interest, if either/both are still around. KMo was involved with Deadearth until she decided she didn't want to GM with an audience, so she might be interested as well.

I know cowbells does RPGs, although I'm not sure how interested he'll be in a meme setup.

[Jingle]

I’m headed to a place with no WiFi for a week or two and will get this started when I get back. Stay beautiful, my frostys.

[Jingle]

Right, sorry for the delay. I'm a lazy fuck.

I'll get the rpg started as soon as I can find the motivation to do so.

[Jingle]

That's not the issue. The issue is having the motivation and the time to put the campaign together concurrently. I'm also having no problems justifying delays because of the nature of this game, but there's really no need to cancel. If you guys don't want to play by the time I get off my ass it's not the end of the world and I can just put the campaign materials in the someday I might run this folder with the Space Jam oneshot.

[Jingle]

Nancy weighs as much as a duck?

[Jingle]

Freshtovia is a joyous land, with a surplus of food and pleasant weather. Most people see hardship as little more than a nightmare one worries about in passing instants when the night is dark and the mind prone to flights of fancy. Most would say that this state of utopian fulfillment is directly the result of the wise rule of Queen Wendy, and they would not be wrong to put the credit at her feet. Still, it is important to know that the success of the nation doesn't come from the wisdom and benevolence of a monarch alone, but also the bounties of the land and the sweat of the populace.

Unfortunately, other lands and peoples are not so lucky. It is rare for a travelling merchant to come from outside of the borders of the realm, closed as they are to prevent any enemies from spreading the chaos and strife of the outer lands into the Freshtovian landscape, but those border villages, protected as they are by the Knights of the Realm, do sometimes see such tales. The children giggle and squeal when confronted with ghost stories about the monsters south of the Beef Gate and the tyrants who rule those other kingdoms dotting the landscape.

This story begins in the small village of Featherdale, in the Southwest reaches of the kingdom. Whether a native, or a recent addition to this community, you've been drawn to the sleepy confines of the town by the workings of Fate and Chance. The town is best known for it's dedication to the raising of poultry, but there are several farms dotted around it's borders. To the east of town is a modest forest, and west leads into a large plain crossed by mostly forgotten trails. A large road with deep wagon ruts leads north where it eventually meets the path between the capitol and your small region. Among the houses in town is a small inn that doubles as the blacksmith's shop. The owner spends his days re-shoeing horses and mending plows, but is happy to provide a bed and meals for those few travelers who come this way. A dilapidated schoolhouse provides a single room where all of the villages children learn their letters and numbers, though during harvest it is more often empty than full. Trade is conducted mostly in an open bazaar where farmers trade seed for grain, but on occasion a wagon stops with exotic goods most of the populace will never buy.

There is a large fort, presumably to defend from incursions from the neighboring kingdoms, but in this time of peace it is hardly the bastion of soldiers it once was. Besides your fellows, there are but four of any considerable fighting skill. The Commander of the fort is a stern woman name Greta, with a no nonsense attitude and little time for chatter. It is an odd day indeed to see her outside of the Castle, though any who have dared to challenge her can attest that her sword arm has not grown weak with the transition from questing to administration. Sir Jolevan is a kind if portly knight who spends more time eating than teaching the youngsters around town, and no time doing anything else. Rumor has it he was once one of the most feared members of Her Majesty's cavalry, but this sleepy hamlet has dulled his senses and his work ethic fully. Adel is the youngest of the occupants of the fort, and is barely considered a man old enough to work. He is enthusiastic, though, and takes well to riding a horse. He is sent with letters whenever Greta needs to report to the rest of the kingdom, but often he can be found lending a hand to the farmers around town, keeping himself busy. His good moods are contagious and he is widely considered the friendliest person in a town where conflict is a foreign concept. Samuel is an old man, hard of hearing and perhaps a bit more than half blind. He busies himself with keeping what records the modest library in the keep and teaching the children. Some of the older members of the village claim he was once a fearsome battle mage, striking down foes with powerful sorcery, but it is hard to reconcile such a vision with the frail man he has become.

It is up to you what you were doing that day, as the stranger rode into town on a black horse, but you soon learned of his presence. Nearly the whole village turned up that night to hear his stories of far away lands. He talked until the wee hours of the morning, drinking on the dime of the villagers all too eager to hear his tales. Children giggled until they were sent home to sleep of his tales of giant wolves and men made of ice dragging people into the dark night. The elders of the village grimaced, possibly remembering times before the peace of the rule of Queen Wendy.




At this point, you may feel free to fill in the background of your characters or not. Perhaps you were born in this village, perhaps you were assigned here, whether due to troublemaking or as a way to give you a view of the nation who can say. Each of you has 10 gold to begin with, along with basic armor (No stat bonus) and a weapon relevant to your Order (Fork/Spork/3 Toothpicks/Knife). You may choose to pool your resources and purchase more expensive items if you wish, but this is the only point at which all of the gear listed on pages 8 and 9 of the rulebook are guaranteed to be available to you. If you would like to purchase something that isn't listed (a 10 foot pole?) let me know and I'll decide an appropriate amount of gold for it to cost.

Rolls will be done using the dice tags. If you choose to tell me about the food you consume (Wendy's or otherwise) those bonuses (or minuses) will apply to only one post worth of actions. If you'd like to send me private instructions (perhaps to steal from each other ), please use the spoiler= tags with my name. Please don't abuse this.

Currently, the worst, Ramcius, and Karnage are playing. I have a cap of 6 concurrent players. If someone has not responded in the last month, they may be replaced by a player should we have reached the player cap AND have a new player interested. Players may of course choose to duck out of the game at any time. Otherwise, players who are not submitting actions will be assumed to be following the majority of the party and doing nothing in combats.

It's okay, I just have to put some more money in the parking meter. I promise I'll be right back.

[Jingle]

Cause it has no deadlines?

Like, I'm waiting for people to be ready, but when they are there's no reason not to continue.

[Jingle]

3584 is the only game relevant post, although Ramcius made a character and responded to it. So far that's it. It's been pretty chill, tbh.

Skills:

Spicy Touch:

Reaching out and touching an adjacent enemy with the spice left on your fingertips. If the attack hits, it does one d4+1 heat damage.

Casting Distance: 5 feet

Slow Heat:

A steady heat that slowly wears on your opponents. The enemy must make a strength-saving throw of 13 or higher. If the enemy fails the throw, they will take one point of heat damage and one additional point of heat damage after each of their turns. (At level 3, this increases to three points of heat damage and three additional points of heat damage after each of their turns.)

Casting Distance: 90 feet

Smokescreen:

A diversion tactic in which a cloud of smoke appears and temporarily blinds your opponents. Choose a point within the casting distance. All characters within a 10-foot radius of that point must make a strength-saving throw of 13 or higher. Those who fail the throw will have their movement ability reduced by half and be at a disadvantage on all rolls made that turn. Characters moving into the area must make a saving throw, and characters starting their turn in the area must make an additional saving throw. This spell lasts three turns or until a different smokescreen or smoke bomb is cast.

Casting Distance: 90 feet

I think I'm ready

Characters, so far. Karnage is Order of the Baconator, ducky is order of the frosty, Ram is order of the spicy chicken sammy and the only one who has bought gear.

[Jingle]

I did a votecount. 5 days late aint bad come on give me credit.

It's less than a percent of the time the thread's been open, even.

[Jingle]

This game started Fri Dec 14, 2018?????

2018

I mean, it's been March of 2020 for at least 250 days now.

[Jingle]

VOTE: Korina

[Jingle]

VOTE: Firebringer

[Jingle]

Wait, voting firebringer refills my role and alignment? So if I vote firebringer enough I might come back to life as an unlimited shot dayvig sk?

[Jingle]

Welcome, Nancy, to the ranks of the dead. Can I interest you in voting Korina?

[Jingle]

HANG ON LET ME WHAT I SEE SO I CAN PROVE YOU'RE FULL OF LIES AND DECEIT

Also, because FB so rudely interrupted me before I could post this:



SEE DATISI, I'M NOT LYING, YOU'RE LYING

Lim All Liars.

VOTE: Korina

[Jingle]

I got perms!

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED

[Jingle]

apologize for posting in this game.

[Jingle]

apologize for posting in this game.

Holy fuck, how do I have a 3 page ISO in this game.

I would like to apologize to everyone for firebringer making me do this to myself.

[Jingle]

I still can't believe I had to sleep in 2 hour segments for 48 hours just to follow the random distribution of parachutes

the sacrifices I make for ya'all

Yeah, you totally misread that suggestion FWIW.

I was actually suggesting you say at the beginning of the event

Parachutes will drop:

[time1]
[time2]
etc.

And then you decided to absolute mad lad it and I was having way too much fun laughing at everyone running around like chickens with their heads cut off to tell you what I meant.

[Jingle]

This is a parachute

This is a pair of shoes.

[Jingle]

I have this amazing ability to gaslight and pocket myself, in addition to constantly shooting myself in the foot with impressive accuracy and frequency. It’s really quite extraordinary truly.

I had a friend growing up who literally shot himself in the foot. Would not recommend.

[Jingle]

This is the most serious game I have ever made.

I'm not sure this sentence is untrue. That's not to say this is a serious game.

[Jingle]

RED LIGHT

[Jingle]

GREEN LIGHT

[Jingle]

Wait, why are we using Pooky's parachutes as a measure by which my capacity to make meme games is read. I made Shirley, You Jest, dammit. I'm capable of meme-ing all by myself.

[Jingle]

Holy crap if this game had the parachute mechanic though.

Waiting literal months for parachutes.

Pooky, how many people do you think you can get to sign up for Squid Game Part Two: The Squiddening?

[Jingle]

Crap. I'll have to get out the player recruitment sack.

Squid Game 2: We Heard Your Complaints, So This Time There's Twice as Many Parachutes.

[Jingle]

Alternatively, we dropped random pieces of firearms and they had to guess whether they had collected enough to safely shoot someone.

[Jingle]

"Oh, I'm sorry, that barrel was sized for a .223 round not a .357. Your gun has jammed and all the components are unusable. Good luck!

[Jingle]

This is a parachute pants.

Spoiler:

[Jingle]

I have no idea what all this discussion about parachutes is, but I also afraid to ask after seeing this discussion

This counts as a pre-in. No takebacksies.

[Jingle]

little bat wings

[Jingle]

4 days left? Time to replace one more player.
Mcmenno is being replaced now

Only four days to post 257 times? That sounds like a challenge.

[Jingle]

You know, I didn't look at the player list before joining but this playerlist is very hype

Nah, all the fun people are dead.

[Jingle]

calling me unfun?

Nah, I'm calling you dead.

[Jingle]

Sekret Dwlee footage.

[Jingle]

I just realized I'm like pseudo immortal since 99.9% of my posts r shitposts anyway

[Jingle]

@FB you gotta replace gamma, they're banned rn and are supposed to be replaced lol

I have talked to mods about this game and bans, and I only replace people in this game for bans if the ban is indefinite.

How does one go about being banned from this thread? Asking for a friend.

[Jingle]

I measure time in centuries

I measure time in cubits.

[Jingle]

I would like to invite you all to make some predictions, just for fun. Responding may give you some insight into your expectations for this game compared to others, though.

1) When this game ends, how many slots will have never been replaced?
2) How many real life days will this game last?
3) How many pages will the game thread have at the end of Day 1?
4) Which player slot would you predict will have the median post count at the end of Day 1?
5) Which player slot is least likely to survive to endgame?
6) Over the course of the game how many night actions will not be submitted due to forgetfulness?
7) Will your player slot still be alive on Day 4?
8) How many pagetops will you personally get in this thread?
9) How many factions are in this game?
10) Will Firebringer edit the typo(s) in the Rules post within the next year?

[Jingle]

I’d like to point out that ram coups was obvscum and the dead earth game was by far the highlight.

0/10 stars, would play again.

[Jingle]

[Jingle]

holy balls thats a stacked asf town

Town was always going to be stacked, the whole premise is incredibly scumsided.

[Jingle]

Jingle was right too, and that's why he was no longer with us past N1

WDYM, I was clearly here the whole time through.

I thought it was p obvious you shot me though. I'd resigned myself to you winning mid D2 though.

Well done, you monster.

[Jingle]

I wish Koba held day vig till the last day of D4 - they are designated elim, everyone expects scum flip and then BAM, game over Tbf, it was our idea to hold it for such a moment like this, especially considering it was public one

Another thing was that I didn't wanted kill Salamence/DGB slot despite the fact that they were confirmed PR - Salamence had strong TR on me after his visit N1 and I had it as some sort of insurance or just to cause some havoc, if people were starting coming after me. I had no idea what role they had, but I knew it was any serious investigative, I was scum after all, how they could get town check?

Yet more proof that in the end you were the biggest masochist of them all.

[Jingle]

Now someone needs to run Geriatric Masochist Mafia.

Same deadlines, but you only get 20 posts per day phase.
