Mini 1898 - Inception Mafia - The Hub (GAME OVER)

[Hiraki]

1) Is player perception private or public?
2) Can afflictions ever change?
3) Going along with 3, do actions occur at the end of a lynch/kick or continuously within the thread?

[Infinity 324]

no, you can only lynch once in the main thread. you can lynch as many times as you like in other threads.

dream threads with two of less players in them that don't have offshuoot dreams of their own mean those players experience an automatic kick.

Ohhh

So persivul is right about the benefits of dreaming deeper.

1) Private.
2) This may or may not be possible.
3) All actions happen continuously. The moment an action is posted is the moment it will be resolved. Any delay on that from our side will be compensated by adding the lost time to the deadline again.

[Persivul]

Except for powers that affect it, we can keep track of everyone's perception ourselves.

[Leonshade]

mechanics discussion really nets no AI behaviour, huh? i can't find anything to push.
let's say McMenno is town.

Why do you TR McMenno?

[Infinity 324]

Persivul, you seem a bit different from when I've played with you before. Why do you think that is?

[Hiraki]

I think that's all the answers I need, thanks mod.

For everyone confused, I think the most valuable thing to understand is that you

need

to watch your perception, especially when you go deeper into the dream.

[Persivul]

Persivul, you seem a bit different from when I've played with you before. Why do you think that is?

I'm moody, and this pregame phase is unusual.

[McMenno]

well, thefuzzylogic isn't v/la but hasn't made a single post yet. might be our best bet for a first lynch

[gerryoat]

so when does this start

[Persivul]

In a little less than 5 days, unless we vote to end pregame.

[gerryoat]

VOTE: end pregame

pls im not waiting 5 days to start

[TheFuzzylogic99]

Sorry was playing in another game as I wait,,,,,,,, was waiting to start,

[Not Chara]

VOTE: end pregame

pls im not waiting 5 days to start

it's better to decide on a lynch before ending pregame. our deadline for the whole game is constrained and we lose if we go past it.

[Not Chara]

Persivul, you seem a bit different from when I've played with you before. Why do you think that is?

why do you think someone would act the same as a normal game, in a pregame where we've only be discussing complex mechanics so far?

Leon: it was an arbitrary choice. let's say Persivul is a townlean instead. less arbitrarily.

[TheFuzzylogic99]

I might bow out..this game is a bit complicated,,,,,,,, Not sure yet,

[Hiraki]

VOTE: end pregame

I think this is against the spirit of the rules but I'm glad you're taking this approach. I will just have no part in it.

I'm not voting until everyone is confident that they understand the rules. I'm 100% sure this time is so that everyone is familiar with what people can and can't do and to figure out how scum might manipulate the game for their advantage (i.e. limboing).

[Not Chara]

Before the actual start of the game, there will be 7 days reserved for mechanics discussion and the start of scum-hunting.

yes, the main point of this time is for the rules, but starting scumhunting here is pragmatic, not against the spirit of the rules. but i understand your point of view.
but, yes: if players are unclear on the rules, it can cause problems down the line if a town player does something 'scummy' that was simply because of a miscommunication, or if a mafioso uses a feigned misunderstanding to get away with something.

Hiraki can be a townlean.

[gerryoat]

wait what. we are lynchign today?? im so confused. i havent been reading anything cause i thought this was just a pregame

[Infinity 324]

I'd expect his tone to be similar at least.

[Infinity 324]

It is a pre game but it's important since we're planning stuff out and clarifying rules.

[Neko Tail]

Just a heads up: we are still looking for a replacement for SirCakez (and depending, maybe one for TheFuzzyLogic99) and we probably won't start the game without those slots filled. If you know anyone who would want to replace in, we'd be happy.

Apologies for yet another delay in this game (it really is cursed smh)

[Edgar Allan Pro]

I don't mind delays, as my time during the week is limited.

Should we agree on some baseline things before play?
For instance, I feel as though bringing people back from Limbo is a really bad idea given our limited time and how much it could help scum.

-V

[Infinity 324]

Yeah maybe, although PR's could change that I think.

[Edgar Allan Pro]

I was thinking PRs could change that, but that just gives scum more room to lie/operate.
Like, yeah, if we have a confirmed Town/Innocent Child hit Limbo, then sure, we can get them back, but otherwise?
Eh.
