[Dormio Ergo Sum]

Put me /in as the last player, I'll only take a slot if nobody else fills them up.

(Let's ignore the Night Spirit thing from the previous game, that's the only time it's come up in the 3~4 years I've been playing here and probably shouldn't have been a thing)

that barely even made sense because whether stoneeye/shakespeare/finalboss are ghosts is never even stated

all my flavor is arbitrary, always :>

[WHMZakeri]

guess I'll /in

CF7:Knowledge of flavor is never required! (Let's ignore the Night Spirit thing from the previous game, that's the only time it's come up in the 3~4 years I've been playing here and probably shouldn't have been a thing)

Having knowledge of flavor in regards to Night Spirit gave me the completely wrong idea of the role's alignment, actually.

(also it's good to know that knowledge of flavor rarely ever comes into play here! That's refreshing to hear.)

(I'll probably take a break for real now, sorry Kilga)

[Sky_Paladin]

Kilga, I think your game is awesome, but I'm running a game already so I don't think I have time to play. 

Nonetheless, please add me to your 'reserve' list, or please just send me straight to the graveyard topic.  Many thanks

Oh... I'm evil then. Because my games tend to be quite flavor heavy... On other hand it makes it easier to understand them, since my roles tend to be also quite flavor heavy and thus you can sort of guess if the role claim is true or not.
Spoiler.

Spoiler:

that's like joining a touhou game and saying you want to be the girl with the hat

OP bitch (and I loved her for it :3)

Spin to win!
Until the devs made it stupid.

[?lice Bl?ckb?rn]

Hm. Tempted.

Hmm...

[BigBangMeteor]

in

[Serela]

And then everyone is disappointed when bofh never returns with a decision, continuing his meta of posting once per year (although the last two years it was in august, not november)

It would still be amazing to see him in play again, though. We could probably all learn something!

[Kilgamayan]

Hm. Tempted.

Hmm...

DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT

[FinnKaenbyou]

CHALLENGER APPEARS

It's been years since I played this but I figure the job of pointing fingers at people hasn't changed much. /in

[WHMZakeri]

Eee :3

[NekoNekoRex]

I was thinking about sitting one out but I'll /in for new faces.

[GMOFucker: Makin' GMOs To Fuck 'Em]

roukan and alice wtf

kilga should get k4u and kefit to join, so we can recreate

Good god no. If I join I plan to, y'know, actually be an active player. >_>

Good god no. I mean if those two /in then wonderful, but let's not recreate that game anytime soon.

Anyway, /in and all that. Whee!

[PX]

Uhhh, okay

I guess in then

[Kilgamayan]

That's 14, including Dormio. I'll leave signups open, though, since the game isn't starting until Monday and I can modify the setup as necessary (as stated before).

[Pesco]

Anyway, /in and all that. Whee!

Show me your Moriarty

[CF7]

Hm... I just thought that i'll need a Co-GM, so s/he can do usual GM stuff while i sleep.

[NekoNekoRex]

You can usually recruit someone who is sitting out for whatever reason as a gm when your game comes around, unless someone volunteers. Might be a good idea to get one beforehand tho if you want your setup checked for balance.

I actually will need a cohost for my game, for different reasons, possibly PX since he already knows my setup. My game will have 15 players, possibly could fit one more depending on signups.

[Sky_Paladin]

I could co-GM for you, CF7.  As an added bonus we both currently have Cirno avatars. 

I would like the chance to co-GM at some point in the future prior to running my own game here.  I won't be offended if you want somebody else, either.

Oh... Eh? Huh? What is that balance thing you're talking about? Balance is a myth.
Actually i try to make my setups balanced, but all balance goes out of the window, when random decides to play a cruel joke on you. For example, in my last game, player had 2-shot bulletproof shield. There were 3 kill attempts on that player. By the end of the game when town lost, he still had his 2-shot bulletproof shield.

Well it won't happen in near future anyway, but i'll keep that in mind.
Also i tend to change avatars on a whim, but i kind of like this Cirno picture.

It's usually better to spread out power more then that to reduce the effects of Random Decision Gods. One 3-vest player isn't nearly as useful to town as three 1-vest players.

Having power concentrated one only a few roles can really "swing" the game depending on who dies first, which mods usually want to avoid.

There was a doc, sort of a weird mix of role-blocker/bodyguard and 4 roles with various degree of protection. Main reason that the town lost was, that as i wrote earlier there was a Survivor player who pushed for no lynch and people going along with it. Also there was a kill-powering (he becomes stronger after each kill) SK. He hadn't killed anyone and actually died on 4th night by attacking a player who had 1-shot counter-attack protection.
So random was really weird in that game. And if town can win, when town is apathetic and indecisive, well... It's not a balanced setup at all.

[NekoNekoRex]

I suppose that's not a good game to showcase your balance skills, then ^^;;
