Gay dance is going to be a multiplier on the issue but I still find it a concern in straight.
It's pretty moot if no one thinks the setup needs rebalancing.
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"

Unless someone wants to run it, I will go ahead and run the anonymous dance.
I have always been curious just how much the pre-dance is decided by popularity.

One pairing pretty severely affects all other players in that same pool.
I'd totally gay dance with GIF again. Also, I really think popularity does matter.

In post 48 , popsofctown wrote: Aside from balance, the setup has major issues with how meta plays into it. Apparently from what I skimmed Croag got left out in gay dance, she's a very new player on site. I'm sure that it didn't have totally zero to do with her play, but it's not fair for it to be a factor at all. "8 townies, 2 mafia, each night the player with the lowest score in the SUPP dies" may or may not be balanced but it's not a good thing to do.
totally agreed. it becomes even more disheartening when you have to play around that as scum.
i knew it was going to happen the moment i saw my role PM and it was miserable.

Biggest concern is the amassing of random secret alts
I guess there could be a modular naming system?

that sounds like a good way to piss half the game off when one gentleman and one lady inevitably lolpair
and that will always result in most of the game lolleaving
