Game Name: Burdened By a Series of Secrets
Game Type: Open/Series game
Game Size: 9 Players
Co/Backup Mod: Cook
Reviewed By:Me
Setup Link:viewtopic.php?f=83&t=86298 with additional features described below.
Current Modding Commitments: Large Theme: Townstumps Mafia
Experience:In addition to the game I linked for the setup? Lots. Lots and Lots.
Hydrae Policy:Despite thinking I'd allow hydrae until very recently, I have capriciously decided secret /ins are more fun.
Other Restrictions?:Don't /in if you don't think you'll want to play multiple games (replacements are a pain in Secret alt games). Don't /in if you have a history of breaking site rules. (I don't want the listmods taking away my toys.)
Deadlines?:7 Day days, 48 hour guess phases, maximum 48 hour downtime between rounds.
Is it possible your game has any mechanically bastard roles or mechanics?No
Is it possible your game has any procedurally bastard dynamics?No
Description:This game will feature a series of rounds, each it's own game of Burdened by Secrecy. At the end of each game, the winning players will receive 1 point. When a player receives a 4th point, the series will end and all players winning the most recent game will win. This means that winning three games in a row and losing the fourth could result in a loss and losing four games in a row but winning the fifth could result in a win, but that winning individual games makes it more likely you will win the overall event.
Each player must signup via PM and choose an alias to persist across games. Signup posts in the queue will be ignored, but signups via PM will be shared with the listmod, so don't think this is a free opportunity to duck mod oversight.Last edited by Jingle on Tue Jun 08, 2021 11:09 am, edited 1 time in total.This is a Parachute.-

For clarification, this game will not have dedicated Paragon signups.In post 218, Jingle wrote:Each player must signup via PM and choose an alias to persist across games.

When you sign up you can choose a phrase or name to be displayed. The Paragons in each round must try to match these names with the randomly assigned alts. For example, if I were to play the game I could choose the Alias Pyrite and could be assigned the Alt Reginald Hargreeves in round 1.
Also,
5/9 players have /inned and 4/5 have submitted an alias. Failure to submit an alias will result in me randomly choosing words out of the dictionary.This is a Parachute.-

I guess I should actually finish making the complicated micro I've been working on at some point.
In any case:
/in to mod
Game Name:Would You Like to Be My Hydra?
Game Type:Closed
Game Size:9
Co/Backup Mod:Only game, no backup
Reviewed By:lolnope
Setup Link:
Current Modding Commitments:None
Experience:More than most, less than some
Hydra Policy:No natural hydrae, see below
Other Restrictions?:Don't sign up if someone who has already signed up has you blacklisted.
Deadlines?:7/2
Is it possible your game has any mechanically bastard roles or mechanics?Mid game alignment changes
Is it possible your game has any procedurally bastard dynamics?Nope
Description:Any town player who dies (either by nightkill or elimination) will be able to choose a player in the game. They will then become a 'hydra' with that player and may continue posting, as well as gaining a hydra PT with that player. If a 'hydra' dies they must choose a single player for all hydra heads to join. If they choose a mafia player, their win condition will become the mafia wincondition. Low power game. Mafia players may continue posting in the mafia PT after they die, but may not post in the main thread. Hydrae share a vote, but post from their individual accounts, unless they decide they would like to make an actual hydra account to use in the game.This is a Parachute.-

Game Name:Divekick Mafia
Game Type:Closed
Game Size:9
Co/Backup Mod:Gypyx
Reviewed By:Gypyx/Pooky
Current Modding Commitments:None.
Experience:23,457 experience until level 20
Hydra Policy:Wait, you want more heads to risk being kicked in? Fine by me.
Other Restrictions?:No Punching
Deadlines?:4 day day phases, 36 hour night and fight phases (see below)
Is it possible your game has any mechanically bastard roles or mechanics?No
Is it possible your game has any procedurally bastard dynamics?If anyone has a strong preference about flavor, I might be persuaded to adjust the randomization to give them that flavor. If multiple people request the same flavor I will not do so. Town and scum flavors were randomly assigned and that information will not be shared before the end of the game.
Description:
Actual game rules:
3. There is no majority elimination. Instead at the end of the day phase (4 days) or when a supermajority (70%) of players have voted to end the day, the two players with the most votes will be selected to Fight. During this fight phase, all players may anonymously submit votes via PM and the player with the most votes will die.
4. All vote ties will be resolved such that the player who was most recently highest among the ties is chosen. Further tiebreakers, if somehow necessary, will be random.
5. The game thread WILL NOT LOCK during night phases. It will lock during fight phases.
Balance is not guaranteed, but this is what the reviewers said:
“this really isn't balanced though, but it'll be fun hopefully“ - Gypyx
“its definitely unique
it is a p scumsided setup
I think it's fine
I like the unique voting system“ - Pooky
“Would you get that microphone out of my face?” - Somebody on the street who clearly doesn’t appreciate quality microphones.This is a Parachute.-

Setup Link:True Love, but in Triplicate
Current Modding Commitments: None
Experience: Like 10 games you've been in.
Hydra Policy: Eliminate them D1. Oh, wait, you mean can they play? Sure.
Other Restrictions?: Nope
Deadlines?: Nightless setup without plurality. Deadlines are entirely meaningless. As such, I will be instituting 20 minute deadlines that don't reset the vote counts but instead simply progress the game until the next day. Eliminations will reset the vote counts as normal for the game the elimination occurs in.
Is it possible your game has any mechanically bastard roles or mechanics? Nope
Is it possible your game has any procedurally bastard dynamics? Nope
Description: If you sign up for this game, you will be signing up for three games, all True Love, all played in the same thread. Role randomization will be independent for each game, but voting will not be. As such, due to the nature of Lovers there will be potentially 3 different lists of living players on D2, but the first elimination will be the same player in all three games. Players may speak in the main thread as long as they are alive in any game, including to talk about other games, but may not post in Lover PTs for games they are dead in, even if both players in the Lover PT are still alive in another game.This is a Parachute.-

Individually per game. The games have no influence on each other past the fact that voting in one requires voting in all of the games you are alive in and they occur in the same thread.In post 588, Dunnstral wrote:How is a winner determined for Jingle's game?
That's why it's a lover setup, because if you think X is obvtown in Game A and obvscum in Game B you can vote X's lover in Game B.
I suppose you could say that winning in 2/3 games makes you win harder and winning 3/3 makes you win hardest, but really the goal is to try your best in every game despite the utter insanity of developing reads in multiple concurrent games with the same player lists and winning 1/3 is still impressive enough.
When I announce the game end here, I will spoiler the winner for each game separately.
Also, I mentioned this in the discord announcement, butI'm not taking pre-ins this timedue to the not wanting to make a mod PT before I know this will fill. I'm also not planning on enforcing blacklists unless you have a really compelling reason like "Isis is currently standing in my front yard with a butcher's knife and I'm scared she'll kill me if I'm in a game with her".
Blink twice if Isis is standing in your front yard with a butcher's knife.Last edited by Jingle on Sun Sep 26, 2021 8:28 am, edited 1 time in total.This is a Parachute.-

Game Size:6-8
Co/Backup Mod:guy in freezer
Reviewed By:Burden of Proficiency Mafia, with a major deviation. Previously run here: viewtopic.php?t=86298
Setup Link:See below.
Current Modding Commitments:I intend to /in to mod a mini probably tomorrow. I do have a backup for that game.
Experience:
Hydrae Policy:Not for this one, although the paragons are a sort of functional hydra.
Other Restrictions?:No bans within the last 3 months and at least one completed game (more is better) for non paragon players.
Deadlines?:THIS IS MS.NET, WE DON'T NEED NO STINKING DEADLINES. (But seriously, day length being short is handled by a game mechanic.
Is it possible your game has any of the following mechanically bastard roles or mechanics?Nope. If you want bastardry I suggest you check out my mini theme when it hits signups.
Is it possible your game has any of the following procedurally bastard dynamics?Adding players midgame, as described below.
Description:For the uninitiated, BoP mafia is an experiment from a few years back that worked pretty well. 3 Town and 2 Scum duking it out with a Safety net beneath the town team. It has a perfectly even EV for town and scum. So... Let's throw a wrench in those works.
This setup will be identical to BoP mafia in all regards except three:
All town and scum players will be given a secret alt to post from.
Once per game BEFORE the elimination the Paragons may choose to guess the identity of every player in the thread. If they are completely accurate they will win exclusively (Both town and scum will lose). This guess will take place in the Paragon thread and thus will not have a visible effect unless it is successful.
Paragons will only be able to win via guessing the scumteam or the alt identities. They will not win after a single scum elimination.
Have you ever thought that as a spectator you could call the scum team or alt accounts of everyone in the game? Put your money where your mouth is and show it.
Signups will take place as normal for a non secret alt game. When signing up, please specify Paragon or Nonparagon. The game will be full when there are five nonparagons and at least one paragon signed up. If there are open paragon slots, you may PM me to join the game as a paragon after the commencement of the game. If a non paragon slot would be replaced, instead they will be the elimination. Please do not join unless you think you can see this game through to completion, although that shouldn't take too long.
Paragons will not be using mod provided secret alts, as there is no reason for a paragon to have to guess their own identity. If you would like to be a paragon using a secret alt of your own, I have no issues with that.
Secret Alts in use this game:

Procedurally bastard is things like mod choosing alignments for a balanced game or mod resolving actions based on who is currently winning. Less of an issue with open setups though.This is a Parachute.-

As far as I know, you are the only person to be interested in paragon-ing. I'll wait on Cakez for confirmation, but that should be the requisite 6 to start the game.In post 1657, Lady Lambdadelta wrote: I don't know who is signed up as paragon or non so
If there is no Paragon, Paragon me. If there is one, Player me.

Probably not the place for a drawn out explanation, but semi open actually refers to setups like matrix 6 or C9++ or Great Idea where there are multiple possible setups, but all of those possibilities are made explicit along with a way to choose which setup is being run. What you’re suggesting is a closed with a public design element.In post 1764, Aureal wrote: A little setup tweak might help. Maybe make it semi-open with just the mason stuff being known, so still potential for other interesting roles? A game with just a mason pair is a bit scumsided (especially with that fact known) and not too interesting for the nonmasons.This is a Parachute.
