Rocky Horror Picture Show - players suck, game over

[Varsoon]

Top though.

[Varsoon]

Hey, guys, wanna run a game of mafia inside this game? Like, I'll keep votecounts and moderate/handle flips. Kill will be on a random non-scum member. Just use bold lynch tags for voting instead of normal vote tags.
Then we can have our cake and eat it, too.

[Gamma Emerald]

Sure!

[Varsoon]

Obviously, it'd have to be mountainous, nightless, and with a kill on a random townie since we can't really co-ordinate a scum PT sort of situation. Wonder what the ratios should be to balance that. Hm.

[Ms Columbo]

I don’t like the idea of limiting ourselves like that, but I do like the idea of getting down to business.

I can protect someone from being recruited but they won’t be able to do anything if they have an ability. Just FYI.
I’m
Just going to claim the other part of my role since I don’t have to worry about being killed by scum. I’m a pack of wild dogs. I’m addition to big shots, I can also chase someone, which means they cannot use actions and actions cannot be taken against them. That also means that they cannot be immunized while they are being chased. So it’s wise not to vote that person for immunizations. It’s also limited #. I have yet to use any of those but do plan to use one in the next phase and will announce.

You seem familiar with the show, do you have an idea how a pack of wild dogs fits with this theme? Except perhaps metaphorically?

Do you think cult do not have the ability to kill?

[Gamma Emerald]

idk how to do in-game sub-games, I thought masochist mafia would help but that one failed me

[Vecna]

Funny how quickly golden dropped the nsfw thing after getting called out on all fronts

I still think Gamma is a CL.

Reasons:
-He was pissed after EOP1 - Later we learn (or do we?) that only 1 recruit went through. Coincidence? Maybe
-He was buddying up to me all throughout play1. After getting called a potential CL for it, his tone suddenly shifts 180, and he gets snappy with me over anything I say.
-We thought before he was softing he made creature and dunker cuddle up, but this mightve just been a fake announcement. Gamma was happy thinking he softed that though and didnt correct any of it.

Thats pretty much all I got. Cerberus' claim also doesnt really seem very in line with all other roles that are out there, but I couldnt really care less about getting into that.

[mutantdevle]

Should we be taking these long pause phases as a sign that cults can’t talk during the play phase? I was assuming their PTs would always be open based on the “it’s always night” detail.

LOL I wouldn't get that up in arms as CL, I'm not a moron, I know sometimes actions fail
I never tried to really buddy you, all I think I did was state a TR on you. If you think that's buddying check your paranoia. Don't recall this 180 either.
I recall people thinking it was me who paired up those two, I was just amused at people thinking it had to be me if I was insisting it was an external party. I believe I specifically said just because I was saying that doesn't mean I was sure of it, or something like that.

Also I'm thinking if we massclaim I should very much go close to last. I have a hunch on someone and don't want to let them know why until they've fullclaimed.

[mutantdevle]

Would close to last actually be necessary, surely you’d just need to claim any position after they do?

There is a scene in the movie where Rocky breaks his chains and escapes, whereupon Magenta releases the dogs who chase him back to the castle.

Two questions: what is a geriatric ruleset? And how would a game within the game work?

A geriatric ruleset is one where you can make a max of 10 posts a day and have a "reserve" of 20 posts that you can dip into if you exceed your daily limit.

No, we're not doing that- it'd get so complicated that a lot of players would hate you. If you want to run a game so badly, /in to mod in a queue. Don't utilize someone else's game to do it. That's rude and offensive to take the setup they've put so much time into and power struggle its way into its own game.

Someone else answered the dogs bit.

On the cults front, I have no clue.

Ah thanks. In that case, no, I'm against doing that. Too much activity isn't exactly one of the problems of this thread!

[Inferno390]

Ooh, could Golden be trying to reduce hunting in the thread even further than it actually is?

[TheGoldenParadox]

[quote="In post 1290, Inferno390"][/quote]
No, I'm trying to limit off-topic or spammy posts.
Gamma, I disagree with #freesheep. He was banned for being underage. At the very start, he was told he couldn't be underage.

[JaydragonKing]

... Um. Wrong thread, Golden?

[Inferno390]

Whoa. Was that a major cultslip?

[Almost50]

So, is this a polar night or something? I know "it is always Night over at the Frankenstein Place" but this Pause phase is taking too long.

[Inferno390]

Agreed, I want to get back into this. I think Golden and Gamma have been having a very long conversation...

[Almost50]

Whoa. Was that a major cultslip?

Probably. Frankly, I've stopped reading the Paradox' posts, but yeah.. this could've been meant to be for the Cult PT, and it is directed at Gamma so it's even more probable.

[Inferno390]

Chickadee, please tell me your vig was aimed at Gamma tonight.

[Almost50]

My guess is Chicka will never be able to shoot at any given day because "a certain someone" will keep blocking her.

I think it'd actually have really interesting implications as far as the actual cult game goes and would get players far more engaged and interested in actually reading other slots.
But ayyy whatever.
