litten ignores the dashboard because of ADHD and ends up crashing his car. mental illness in this society truly is terrifying.

I get in the car and scream “MAKE ME PLAYSTATION 5. GIVE ME A PS5”

this is because i believe all machines are secretly run by little elves

This bait would only work on me if you were an unironic Imperium of Man defender and even then I wouldn’t argue that another army was better, I’d just make fun of you for being an Imperium defender

tbh people should do that more [the warning]. very frequently i will host a game with like some pretty basic mech that affects the game a medium amount, and then on d1 like three people (in a 13p!) will ask why i announced something to do with that mechanic.

this is a hypothetical but

#16984

y’know i hosted Jackal Returns on a discord server called discord mafia once
and i didn’t include a warning or a confirmation of reading the OP b/c their signups are automated

that game was a shitshow for mostly unrelated reasons but at least like 6 or 7 people (of the 20 players) got confused by the jackal, even on d3

#16985

luckily the coven recruit didn’t join coven chat and say “hey so my role is Recruited Poisoner. what does that mean”
but that’s like the worst-case scenario so

#16986

The op: “This game will be very swingy. Dont join if you wont enjoy that, and please dont blame the hosts for any decisions as theres likely more going on behind the scenes”

The player: “Wow, why the fuck did this happen! This must have happened instead! (Wrong assumption). I cant believe the hosts are stupid enough to do this. I’m gonna gamethrow now”

generally it turns out better with vanilla-ish games even if they do have wacky mechanics
but like. if i actually hosted my game concept centered around events (kinda like need for speed FM but not really) then i think as soon as i post the first event on d1 like 5 people in thread would go “wait there’s events?”

Another person

“What do you mean by I can make a wish? Can i do anything with that?”

See: the mechanic the entire setup is built around, present in the op
