If I ever got miller I'd claim it as soon as possible actually. I feel like it's an odds game exactly how it happened this game. You're probably less likely to be the dayvote for a bit(convincing enough ppl to elim is harder as some people are suckers for claims) but if town has a night kill? Much ...

(Oh, and as for the handshake thing, my exact reading of it was the literal word "handshake", before anyone said anything about it. I'm sorry sibs, it genuinely was that obvious) The fakest thing I did beyond the pretending to be town was pretending to be mad about the handshake thing. I ...

Oh! You know I guess I never asked after dying if the other mafia was aware it was multiball. Just held to my assumptions there

Also Wam and Madge/all Zesteria players would've been at a huge disadvantage with the flavor claims just by not entering D1 knowing Berseria was in the game. Any research you would've done initially wouldn't have had a reason to include the prequel in there so you had less time to work that into you...

Thanks mods for running and players for playing, glad to have been around for apparently the first large game in a bit! It was honestly fun if a little exhausting-but any other game I'd sign up for from here on out I'd have a better idea of the rate of play. Also I genuinely thought Madge was town h...

Also would there be any interest in a Survivor Org? Basically a game of Survivor where there is a challenge then you vote someone off the island (eliminate from the game) and the winner of the challenge has immunity from being voted off. When there are 3 players left those eliminated vote on who th...

Desolation/Zestiria: The "frustration seems real" bit is so funny. It was played up, but it had truth in it! Very much a "why can two things not be true at once" thing. Also the "maybe scum only had nightchat" assumption. No, we had nice arguments in the daychat where I...

12. This game may use post death mechanics, even if eliminated do not check Gojoe spoilers or green room until mod allows it

Here's to hoping you die and still can't look at spoilers

"been denied" is dramatic but those spoiler tags have been mocking me

@others : if you don't object to an early hammer then please start voting Bop once phillip confirms. I'm not allowed to condone this. I am allowed to say it would be nice to not be dangled over the spoiler thread for an extra day. I have been denied a quick, graceful exit and at this point would se...

Not gonna happen

Damn.

Night only mod posting game sounds incredible and also one of those modding nightmares. I could see a similar message system working how they do in the soullike games. It's fun to see what gets birthed out of restriction.

Just doing my contractually obligated daily check in! Putting my boxes at the door, etc.

mods

Mostly continuing to post so I don't get modkilled and bc I like to talk-I'm aware I'm not really "part of the conversation" at this point I get that, but the only reason this game exists is that people think differently. From your pov it might be skill issue, but maybe they have lost in t...

I'm very aware! But I can't win if I die and trying to abide by the rules of playing to wincon, that's all. Luck of the draw.

Tales of Desolation:

Spoiler (Show/Hide)

My last spoiler is so fucking funny. My god. I could TASTE it coming.

The way the two scum factions are gonna be taken out literally identically (member 1 caught from their fake claim, member 2 night killed that very night). Like I was not kidding. History rhymes.

So. At the very beginning of the game one of the many questions I asked the mods was whether there is any possibility of an ability having a random component. There was no real reason to suspect this, I was just paranoid about it because the sample role-pm had it and I don't like RNG-based abilitit...

ping Please claim. On it! Shame as my ability is most useful when scum are unware of it, but this helps with the overall solve. I’m Rokurou, and have a two-shot ability Vengeful Stance (functions as a kill mirror/weak ascetic) Twice this game, at night I can choose to activate my stance. When I’m i...
