i have an idea for the next botf
anyway klutz is an outsider which involves no host agency :)
True
do not fall for that siren song it shall lead you to crash upon the rocks
also any game where personal efforts can be undone by host meddling is bad and should be avoided
you just played lizards
Botc is unfortunately fundamentally designed around it
And is also designed for irl casual-ish play
This is why SnV is allowed to exist
i was a replacement thrust into the spotlight
(i forgot how much i disliked BoTC)
Botc is actually mostly Fine with host bias because, well, they designed around it
then imo it is ~objectively~ a poorly designed game
But if somebody creates like a single role that says âyou are the tinker the host can kill you at any timeâ and inserts it into some random setup. Yeah that sucks
It definitely doesnât work longform but may I remind you that itâs designed for irl and real-time play
I do agree that you do need like, a reasonable host who doesnât fuck people over for no reason tho
then why have you run it long form 31 times
I understand this ideology, but if a game is designed around a âgmâ making it enjoyable (say DnD) itâs perfectly fine
However botcâs winner isnât usually just completely decided by the host in my experience, nor is it a majority âthe host did this random thing and we basically just wonâ
So itâs like, pretty good. As long as you donât have a host who is determined to fuck over a team at every turn. If you do stop signing up for their games
Skill issues
(fuck if I know)
