Also our current game (hallowws end) is in its (probably) final cycle if you want to watch that go down 😂

[kitzsuna]

Thanks yall sounds fun, i’ll give it a try 🙂 i have played mafia a couple times so im somewhat familiar

 

[WildZoo]

I dare the universe to give me something to do tbh

Hehe it worked, we have moose, red panda, and rattlesnake procedures now BUT I'm not primary on any of them so I just get to have fun

 

[screamqueenbee]

Have you played the party game Mafia? Or seen the gameshow Traitors? It's like that in forum form!
Every player is given a secret role in the beginning of the game: usually mostly villagers(town) and a few wolves/mafia.
The town tries to figure out who the wolves are and vote them out on day cycles, while wolves kill at night, until either all wolves are gone (town wins) or there are as many wolves as town (wolves win)

The goal if you're town is to figure out who to trust, sus out the wolves and convince the other townies you're also town, and avoiding the interest of the wolves. The goal as a wolf is to not be figured out and take out as many town as possible through convincing town to vote them out during day and killing at night.

Sometimes there are third party players who aren't on either team and have their own ways to win.

In these games the mods like to give people extra powers with their roles that add another level of fun/complexity!

Traitors Mention!

I want to play shorty game but also want to play CYO and don't want to do all these in a row.
bleh

samac is gonna play CYO for the first time?!

 

[GoSpursGo]

samac is gonna play CYO for the first time?!

What's special about CYO?

 

[WildZoo]

What's special about CYO?

You choose your own role!

 

[supershorty]

What's special about CYO?

I'm playing.

 

[WildZoo]

Also it's multiball - multiple factions. So role madness on steroids.

 

[supershorty]

jk but I'm pretty sure that's why samac is playing it despite her not liking multiball

 

[samac]

samac is gonna play CYO for the first time?!

Didn't I do it once?

 

[supershorty]

Didn't I do it once?

No

 

[samac]

jk but I'm pretty sure that's why samac is playing it despite her not liking multiball

SHORTYYYYYY


You all haven't lived until you see shorty and samac village together. Thread domination.

 

[samac]

No

Oh that was Zenge's true like be your own

 

[GoSpursGo]

You choose your own role!

But… everyone knows I would pick wolf. So I’m just gonna get yeeted first no matter what, even if I choose not wolf

 

[samac]

But… everyone knows I would pick wolf. So I’m just gonna get yeeted first no matter what, even if I choose not wolf

so its not like that
You get options
so I might be able to be like black goo or town doctor
And I pick goo

Or you might get
alpha wolf
poisoner wolf

and no matter what you wolf

or you might get
town doctor
town vig

no matter what you town

So it's not that simple, but there is some level of "would this person choose wolf if offered to them?"

Cool. I suppose I'll play just to give everyone a D1 free target 😀

It's actually more complicated than this because you get 3 options. You discard 1, use 1 for role, and 1 for affiliation. There are a few forbidden combinations.

So for example, I could roll the following:
- Wolf blocker
- Town doctor
- Town lover

Discard lover because trash role, use wolf blocker for affiliation, and use town doctor for role, and thus become a wolf doctor.

jk @WildZoo is the wolf doctor here.

The spouse is gonna hate the back to back games but that's way too enticing.

Are the rolls weighted to give a reasonable number of wolves?

 

[supershorty]

Are the rolls weighted to give a reasonable number of wolves?

The balancing process for CYO is very intense and confusing, and I don't fully know what it is, but it rerolls if it doesn't meet a specific threshold of scum:villager for balance.

 

[Animal Midwife]

Are the rolls weighted to give a reasonable number of wolves?

We do our best to keep it fair for all scum, yeah. But the exact number of wolves, if any, is a mystery since multiple types of scum are possible.

 

[Animal Midwife]

The one thing we guarantee to avoid is village losing on N1 or something else similarly cruel.

Upon reflection I think I better sub 😅. Knowing me I will get too invested and not study enough 🫠

 

[GoSpursGo]

I'm going to have to think of a way to up the Big Deth bc my last Big Deth mechanic of killing everyone in the tie, the tie maker, and any nonvoters just seems so pedestrian.

Heyyyyyy wait a minute...

So far we have designed the tiebreak mechanic and one (1) role because we have been far more focused on the mod roles and gif acquisition.

Priorities.

You already know exactly what the flavor of Big Deth is going to be for this game 😱

 

[supershorty]

yeah but I forgot because I have dementia so now I have to come up with it again

 

[kaydubs]

@kitzsuna I've offered an option before for brand new players to, instead of playing, sidecar with a more experienced player, which basically means that I put you in their role PM and you can ask them questions and watch how things work without actually playing it yourself.

I haven't talked to my co-mods about it for this game, but I'm sure we could work something out if that sounds appealing!

Since I’ve done this often too, that’s cool with me. I find sidecars adorable

 

[Zenge142]

Oh that was Zenge's true like be your own

Welcome @kitzsuna great user name, can’t wait to have you play!!!

 

[kitzsuna]

Welcome @kitzsuna great user name, can’t wait to have you play!!!

Thanks, i’ve used it since i was a kid lmfao

Me tooo! Hopefully it goes ok yoloing it 😅

My first game I said yolo and shorty sidecar’d with me. I’ve played three games since I think lol and I’m signed up for this one.

 

[supershorty]

SAR said this at the end of the last game we ran together, so I think I should leave it here.

I just need to say "this game may be verging on bastard, but is designed to be winnable for all factions" on my sign ups and then truly let the chips fall where they may for game design

 

[supershorty]

We will start working on game design this weekend and plan to close sign-ups on Tuesday, 11/25, with tentative planned start date of 11/28 or 29 pending player objections.

Given the two options I would prefer 11/29, as I'll be traveling, including flying during EOD on 11/30 🙂 If everyone else prefers 11/28 that's OK too, I say now that I'll be "less active" but I'm sure I'll still post more than I should 😛

Nobody suss me for being less active for the first 48h

 

[_rae_]

I would personally prefer 29th as well as the spouse has the 28th off and I want to spend time with them without hearing “hey can you get off SDN please” 😂

 

[screamqueenbee]

I will be less active on the 29 because that's my immediate family's thanksgiving
