EP is not the recent calligrapher. Congrats on being TOP TIER nonetheless & winning $150K in Monopoly monies!! Wanna try again with the unofficial guesses?

[KittyMo]

You're right on EP's; you flipped lilith's and pie's.

BTW, I think that "can live off of" in this context means that something tastes so good to someone that they feel like they could eat nothing but it and still feel OK about their life.

I'll /in for both!

Do I PM KittyMo with my answers to be a stranger or what?

I was just thinking a few hours ago about inviting you specifically to play this, oddly enough. Glad to see you! Please do PM me Identities as you think of them.

If you send me an Identity I'll add you to the Stranger Blob, and if you do so in the near future you can participate as a stranger as early as next round. Generally strangers either submit a bunch of identities to me at once (and I place them in approximately every other round), or if someone is more particular about when they play, generally they'll submit one identity to me when the game's between rounds and I add them to the next round. Some other arrangement is possible; just let me know your preferences.

There's a bunch of examples of Identities that have been used in the spoiler tags in the bottom of the thread OP. The only real rule is to choose identities that are specific enough that one can reasonably expect won't apply to anyone else. Some IDs that ended up applying to more than one person in the round include Has never broken a bone, Has a fridge with three doors, and Came in Second Place in their High School Trivia Bowl. When that happens I have to ask the original submitter to either make the identity more specific or switch it for a different identity, which I prefer not to have to.

Other recommendations:
- Try not submit an identity that you are uncomfortable elaborating on, because there is a questioning mechanic
- Try to submit something that the contestant can reasonably PoE to some extent based on demographics/vague impressions of people. e.g. "Broke their arm at age 8" is likely specific enough to not apply to anyone else, but is not very interesting to try to figure out

Aristophanes, KittyMo, piegirln

How did the cigarette fiasco take place?

I started my first year of college in October 2013 and moved to Olympia, WA for that end. On that fateful day in November 2013, I met up with Cheery Dog and N in Tacoma after they had just been leaving Seattle (later they asked me why we didn't just hang out in my town since I didn't have a car, but I felt like there were more Things To Do in Tacoma + I honestly hadn't gotten out that much in Olympia then and I felt like we were meeting each other halfway so *shrug*). When we went our separate ways, I missed the last bus back to Olympia due to accidentally being on the wrong side of the street, and my phone was dying. So, I went into a convenience store very close to the bus station and called up a friend/classmate and begged them to help me get home. The only person there besides the clerk was a lady who offered me a cigarette. I was 17 at the time and had never been offered one before (nor wanted one) and that was just kind of what came out of my mouth as a response. I think my thought process might have been that "I could hypothetically be here for alcohol sting purposes and if that were the case you probably wouldn't want to be offering me a cigarette so here's a heads up" but then after I said it I just felt like a nerd.

[KittyMo]

Aristophanes did have 3 D&D characters die in a 2 month period.

[KittyMo]

Correct! Congrats on getting 8 correct matches. Wanna unofficially guess the rest?

[KittyMo]

Correct except that UTL's & Shadoweh's are swapped I'll post the table later

[KittyMo]

Also /In as stranger (Pie totally peer pressured me into this part).

If you send me an Identity I'll add you to the Stranger Blob, and if you do so in the near future you can participate as a stranger as early as next round. Generally strangers either submit a bunch of identities to me at once (and I place them in approximately every other round), or if someone is more particular about when they play, generally they'll submit one identity to me when the game's between rounds and I add them to the next round. Some other arrangement is possible; just let me know your preferences.

There's a bunch of examples of Identities that have been used in the spoiler tags in the bottom of the thread OP. The only real rule is to do your best to submit identities that are specific enough that one can reasonably expect won't apply to anyone else. Some IDs that ended up applying to more than one person in the round include Has never broken a bone, Has a fridge with three doors, and Came in Second Place in their High School Trivia Bowl. When that happens I have to ask the original submitter to either make the identity more specific or switch it for a different identity, which I prefer not to have to.

Other recommendations:
- Try not submit an identity that you are uncomfortable elaborating on, because there is a questioning mechanic
- Try to submit something that the contestant can reasonably PoE to some extent based on demographics/vague impressions of people. e.g. "Broke their arm at age 8" is likely specific enough to not apply to anyone else, but is not very interesting to try to figure out

[KittyMo]

Discussing identities that you are in the PoE pool for when you have not been asked by the contestant to talk about them is not intended to be part of the game. Do not do this. If there is an Identity in a round that you did not submit that also applies to you, let me know privately. When this happens I will privately ask the original submitter to make their identity more specific or, if they cannot, ask them to switch it to a different identity altogether.

I'm not going to make a rule that no one in the thread can make any kind of commentary on the game without being asked to via ingame mechanics bc I don't think this is as Serious Business as mafia/survivor/etc., but please use good judgment about whether something unduly influences the game.

The only way I can come up with to salvage this at this point is for Aristophanes, LlamaFluff, Shadoweh, & xofelf to submit new identities to me by (expired on 2017-04-22 16:02:32). I'll replace anyone with a new Stranger who has not done so by then. (If you have already submitted a bunch to me previously you don't need to; just not gonna name names publicly in case it somehow influences the game.)

Sorry to racefan that this has happened.

[KittyMo]

I'm going to go ahead and have CuddlyCaucasian and Realeo replace StrangerCoug and Vijarada for this round as I already have IDs from them.

[KittyMo]

StrangerCoug and Vijarada have privately apologized and I appreciate that.

xofelf hasn't sent me a new Identity so I'm gonna put Apricity in instead.

Here is the mid-round reveal:

1 Question | Double Dip | Mistaken Identity | Tri-Identity

[KittyMo]

racefan's question is in a grey area to me because on the one hand, yes it uses "and" to combine two clauses that can be thought of as two separate questions, but the question itself is also pretty functionally similar to him literally just being like, "Can you expand on why both clauses of this identity are the case?" which is why I'm not officially going to rule on it. What counts as one question is not really something I can nail a specific definition to, so I would like to encourage people to just use their best judgment and I'll step in if I think someone's angleshooting/repeatedly toeing the line.

The situation Realeo's recalling from his first round as a contestant was interesting. The identity he was trying to get more information about was "Cisgender but often mistaken for the wrong gender by strangers over the phone." What was asked was "Question to all 6: Are you male or female or other non-binary gender? If you're binary gender then can I have your "attributes" (heterosex or homosex), please?" Why I primarily ruled against it was that it was phrased as having a follow-up question based on one's answer to the first part of it; I felt like it was formatted to functionally be addressing two things at once. I'm not honestly sure I would have canceled it if he'd just asked those people "What is your gender identity and sexual orientation?" But there were a few other factors that led me to ruling to cancel the questions. One was that Realeo had previously in the round been in a grey area IMO by asking a multi-part question: "Question for CheeryDog: I know you're an Aussie who works in computer--buy can you be specific? Is it a house in Canberra that belongs to you? Is it an apartment in Perth that you rent? Is it your parent's house in Melbourne? Something like that." Which was understandable to me since he's not a native English speaker and even though he was phrasing it as multiple questions, he was really only looking for one answer; but having multiple "iffy" questions in the same round is part of what led me to ruling on Realeo's gender/attribute question. Another factor was that I had a couple of people reach out to me saying that they were really uncomfortable with the premise of the question. Another factor was that, due to a combination of the nature of the gender/sexual orientation question and due to a stranger not understanding the questioning mechanic, they answered his question with "I'm not cis and so this identity isn't mine." So, all of that combined led me to want to take a step back with that line of questioning. Not sure I handled it the best way possible, but that's some insight into why I made the decision I made at the time.

I'm not completely confident on any of the identities in this group, though I think I can narrow down some options on a few of them. So I'm going to use some help on one of them that could reasonably fit anyone.

Use Tri-Identity on swollen middle finger on right hand

That identity belongs to one of D3f3nd3r, UpTooLate, and Yume. You must solve it before attempting to solve others.

I will let Cheetory know you would like his help. Feel free to give him some guidance to your Friend which identities you would prefer help regarding.

This lifeline will become available to a contestant that has yet to make 8 total correct matches and has made 3 consecutive incorrect matches to keep the game from getting stagnant. Select a Scummer that is not a stranger in the current round (please pick someone you can reasonably expect won't mind participating.) I'll PM them to let them know you're phoning them. They can weigh in on any two identities that they'd like to in this thread (who they think likely does or doesn't have it and why.) They will receive credit for you phoning them on the leaderboard regardless of the outcome.

Known non-matches:

-DRK is not the #4 Mafia Addict; DRK did not accidentally spend Easter listening to Satanic Metal; DRK did not learn all the capitals/countries on Sporcle after high school
-lalaladucks is not the #4 Mafia Addict
-Equinox did not cosplay as an Ace Attorney character

Answers relevant to unsolved identities:

Equinox why they would pull an all nighter so early? (hopefully including what class it was for)

I had it in my head that I'd have the midterm for my assessment class in February when it was, in fact, scheduled for March. I still have no idea how that happened because it doesn't even make sense given we started in January. I made sure to use planners after that.

You've got two official match attempts remaining.

I love this GIF so much!

I don't even have siblings rip

Lol
I should have just read everyone's GTKAS when this started!
Would that be considered studying or cheating?

(I'm not gonna do it, I'm just kinda curious)

Sleuthing the site is fair game, though I think most contestants can't be bothered!

[KittyMo]

Using Tri-Identity on that identity is functionally useless because you already have who has that identity narrowed down to 3 people. If you want to use it on that half of the split you could do so for the all-nighter one or the cosplay one.

You're welcome to use your questions at any time, yes.

[KittyMo]

That identity belongs to one of KittyMo, lalaladucks, and Vi. You must solve this identity before attempting to solve others.

[KittyMo]

It was me It was a p last minute thing. I was Pearl Fey. Figuring out the hair was fun!

You know by PoE that DRK once pulled an all-nighter studying for a test a month early, so that totals two more correct matches and marks the official end of your round.

You're welcome to take unofficial guesses at the rest, with or without using your 8 questions. I'll post the reveal once you do so or opt not to.

Something that's stuck out to me when hosting is that some contestants really seem to get a lot out of using questions, while others do not seem to enjoy it as a mechanic (and don't even use all of theirs up by the end of the game.) So, I've been toying with having an alternate game mode that has more Lifelines and doesn't have the questioning mechanic - the contestant would choose their preference either pregame or at the start of their round, and a distinction would be made on the Leaderboard so that it doesn't matter if one game type is slightly harder than the other.

My main idea is to introduce a Lifeline based on the game Mastermind - my working name for the Lifeline is Identity Parade. The contestant when using the lifeline would submit hypothetical match attempts for all unsolved identities, and then find out how many of those matches are correct. I'm not quite sure how it should interact with Split Identity. (Like, should it only be able to be used for one half of the split if used after Split Identity? If it can be used on both halves of the split, should a distinction be made across the split for how many total are correct? etc.)

Also wondering about an "ask the audience"/tip line type lifeline that would involve spectators (and possibly also strangers) anonymously submitting guesses to the host. When the lifeline is used, some number of the most popular match guesses submitted would be revealed (as well as possibly the % of submitters that agreed). Could be a phone-a-friend alternative or could be a feature of the alternate game mode. Could also give credit to whichever submitter had the best guesses at the end of the game so as to motivate accurate submissions.

Feel free to discuss ITT, and if you're an upcoming contestant, LMK if you'd be up for trying no-question-mode.

[KittyMo]

Another option for the Mastermind-style lifeline is just giving the contestant free reign on which unsolved identities they want to use it for rather than forcing them to use it on all of them.

To be clear I see the Mastermind one as more fitting to replace the information garnered from 12 questions throughout the game than the ask the audience one. For the ask the audience thingy I'm proposing it either in addition to the Mastermind one, or as an alternative to phone-a-friend.

I think the main bummer in the no question version is that I like that hearing the stories behind identities is embedded into the game currently, but that can still be a post-round or post-correct-guess discussion topic ofc.

[KittyMo]

I'm good to table the discussion until there's a contestant that actually would prefer it, in that case.

[KittyMo]

I know I'm late but just final input before you table it. I think the best way is that you still collect questions as usual, but players are allowed to exchange question for lifelines. Mastermind may cost 3 questions. Ask the audience may cost 1 question.

Why only pick one of mastermind or question when you can have both?

I like this idea Would still probably mark the scores of people who do decide to exchange questions differently.

[KittyMo]

FA has had the pregnancy scares.

Nope. That's your Mistaken Identity.

[KittyMo]

Oh uh, forgot to mention that you earned another question.

[KittyMo]

Tri-Identity: The contestant chooses an identity and the number of strangers to choose from is narrowed down to three: the correct stranger and two incorrect strangers. The player must choose the correct stranger out of the three that matches the identity. Once the contestant has chosen to use their Tri-dentity, the contestant must solve that identity before attempting to solve any other identity.

Double Dip: The contestant can select two strangers to match to one identity; if it matches either, a correct guess is counted.

[KittyMo]

Neither Aristophanes nor StrangerCoug has had 4 pregnancy scares.

Your next match attempt will either be correct or you'll earn phone-a-friend.

3 Questions | Tri-Identity

[KittyMo]

Aristo likes conlangs, SC has every Taylor Swift album, realeo did the stupid teeth thing.

Just to be clear, are you simultaneously guessing all of those?

[KittyMo]

Aristophanes is not the conlang person.
StrangerCoug is not the Taylor Swift person.
Realeo, however, is the teeth brushing habits person.

By PoE you do know that StrangerCoug is the conlang person and Aristophanes is the Taylor Swift person. All in all, that puts you at +3 correct matches (6 total correct) +2 incorrect, which actually marks the official end of your round.

You have more 5 questions you may use to the end of trying to unofficially solve the other half of the split. (Or, you can just ask for the reveal.)

[KittyMo]

well if they weren't crazy to you you wouldn't have submitted it as an identity. ha!

You know, this is actually true, I didn't think they were weird. Kittymo asked me about it for an ID. I think she just wants to know how to tempt me. ^.^

The wasabi kettle chips were so much better. I felt like I needed some soy-flavored pringles to go with these ones. At least they're edible unlike the sriacha ones which burn...

Yeah, I feel like Vijarada's thought process here would normally be a good way to assess answers. Shadoweh's just a special case in that, half the time, how her ID is thought up is prompted. Like, this is how this one was:

Spoiler:

KittyMo (06/09|09:57:26)
whats the strangest thing uve eaten

Shadoweh (06/09|09:58:02)
I don't really eat strange things I'm sorry ;-:

Shadoweh (06/09|09:59:31)
probably some type of sushi

Shadoweh (06/09|09:59:47)
i had wasabi pringles yesterday?

KittyMo (06/09|10:10:52)
oh i think an ID of things u ate within the last week would be funny

KittyMo (06/09|10:11:06)
what else do u remember eating

(And uh, when I started the round it had been a couple of days so I wasn't sure those all still counted within the past week, so.)

Anyway, here's the reveal. That was a lightning round.

Phone a Friend - Select a Scummer that is not a stranger in the current round (please pick someone you can reasonably expect won't mind participating.) I'll PM them to let them know you're phoning them. They can weigh in on any two identities that they'd like to in this thread (who they think likely does or doesn't have it and why.) They will receive credit for you phoning them on the leaderboard regardless of the outcome.

Spectators that think they can help are welcome to say as such

[KittyMo]

implosion did have the sea sponge!
Vi's edited out thing did not directly relate to the sea sponge match attempt (it was a suggestion related to use of your assistance) but was edited to not possibly imply anything about your guess before you'd gotten confirmation of your match attempt result.
Doesn't sound like anyone broke rules.

Correct +1 question

[KittyMo]

You are being trolled and were correct. (Which I'm glad was done at a time when you were done guessing that half of the split regardless.) Also by PoE you know DRK was the persistent one on Mother's Day. Well done!

[KittyMo]

I just forgot to mark a new correct match; sorry

[KittyMo]

@Kµ: One match attempt on the bottom will clear it out regardless of whether the match attempt was correct

That is correct.

Speaking of true, the Discord server I frequent has its theme change ever month. Eventually, the theme changed to Pokemon so I wanted to change my username to "Absolmorpherv1" on that server. So I flagged over a close mod buddy of mine, who proceeded to gve me the wrong role and ban me from the server.

Later on, I accidentally lost my abilit to use Discord's emotes by accident.

I have received an apology for this in private already, but to reiterate publicly - Discussing identities that you are in the PoE pool for when you have not been asked by the contestant to talk about them is not intended to be part of the game. Do not do this.

I am going to ask Haschel to submit a new identity and find a replacement stranger for animorpherv1, which will make up the new 2nd half of the split.

Basically, everyone gets 12 total match attempts. Getting one correct marks a row at the bottom correct, and getting one incorrect removes the top row. Getting 11 correct matches is functionally the same as getting 12 correct ones so perhaps it would be better to just mark the top as Mistaken Identity

1) McMenno's incorrect guess that Vijarada got accidentally banned from discord removed the Mistaken Identity row
2) McMenno's incorrect guess that StrangerCoug made the semifinals of a reality TV competition show removed row 11
3) Vi's correct guess that RadiantCowbells was awestruck at seeing Queen & Adam Lambert marked row1 green
4) Vi's incorrect guess that ani's fave game was Trouble removed row 10
5) Vi's correct guess that Shadoweh's fave game was Trouble marked row2 green
6) Vi's correct guess that Reg walked from Paris to Versailles marked row3 green
7) Vi's incorrect guess that Haschel can but shouldn't play drums removed row9
8) Vi's incorrect guess that ani can but shouldn't play the drums removed row8
9) Vi's PoE that Vijarada can play the drums but shouldn't marked row4 green
10) Vi's double-dip that

Haschel

or D3f once pulled an all nighter marked row5 green
11) Vi's PoE that Haschel once ruined a cookie sheet making hardtack marked row6 green

You have 1 more remaining, which wouldn't have been the case if you had instead incorrectly matched D3f's identity. If there's a more clear way of wording this stuff let me know.

[KittyMo]

Please put me in as a contestant again. I think I have a better idea of how to play this game, which should help me get sub-6 correct next time.

Tri-Identity
Rode a Scooter to school every day in high school, even in the snow

Will do. Thanks for subbing in to this round.

That identity belongs to one of Aristophanes, mallowgeno, and N. Your final match attempt must be for this identity.

Congrats on 7 correct matches and thanks again for replacing in!

If there's interest in replacing in for RadiantCowbells, please let me know. I asked animorpherv first since he's next up in the contestant queue, but in the event he's not interested I would prefer not to bug the only other person in the queue (Vi) to step in two rounds in a row if someone else is willing <_<.

[KittyMo]

Thanks for replacing in ani. Let me know if you'd rather be bumped behind Vi in the queue so you're not playing back-to-back rounds.

Also, your next match attempt will either net you phone-a-friend or will be correct, so that's good.

All of them were gifts except for the masquerade mask. Not really sure why I specified woman's other than that it was in the item title and I had been going back and forth on whether to get her a woman's shirt with 3/4 sleeves or a unisex shirt in a color she'd like better.

Correct! Congrats on 3 correct matches. Do you want to take unofficial stab at the rest, or would you just like the reveal?

Thanks again for replacing in - it's always a bit weird coming in after someone else made a different Split Identity decision than you necessarily would have, and it means 12 identities didn't go to waste.

Data entry from last round is now complete.

Because we've had a high proportion of replacements lately I PMed Vi to make sure this is a good time for Vi to be a contestant. If it is not, I will be asking James Brafin next as animorpherv informed me he doesn't want to be the contestant in back-to-back rounds. I believe I have identities submitted to me by Aristophanes, implosion, James Brafin, MariaR, MathBlade, N, pienyan, racefan12, Regfan, Vijarada, and Wickedestjr right now. I should bug you (Inferno390), Shadoweh, and possibly a couple of other people to submit some to me in the meantime.

racefan: What roleplaying game were you playing?

We were doing a roleplaying game based on Serenity (the movie continuing the Firefly TV series). The Serenity roleplaying game uses the Cortex RPG system, and has general skills such as artistry, medicine, and guns that your character can develop, as well as special skills under those general skill umbrellas. When making a using a skill, the character also applies the attribute deemed most relevant to the task out of agility, strength, alertness, vitality, intelligence, and willpower. A character with high agility and intelligence, for instance, would be well-suited to shooting a pistol and performing first-aid and surgery after combat.
