Start of Day 4 Announcements

A King election has started!

Please privately vote in your rolecard for who you would like to be King. Whoever receives the most votes by 2024-06-10T09:00:00Z will be crowned!

The following setup was submitted for review:

Click here for setup

Perfectly Normal April Fools Setup

10x Town
5x Mafia
5x Triad
5x Council
5x Wolf

Town

JOAT - Kill/Roleblock/Protect
Mafia Cop (Appears as Cop) - Only the Mafia will investigate as evil to this role.
Triad Cop (Appears as Cop) - Only the Triad will investigate as evil to this role.
Council Cop )Appears as Cop) - Only the Council will investigate as evil to this role.
Wolf Cop (Appears as Cop) - Only the Wolves will investigate as evil to this role.
5x Vanilla Town

General Information:
All evil roles are vanilla.
Evil factions don’t know each other exist
All four factions have a factional kill, but only the player targetted by the majority of the factions dies (they don’t know this). IN case of dies, the kill is randed,

The reviewer denied the setup and provided the following justification:

Wow this is going to be a slow game, with 30 people and max 2 deaths per cycle we’re at minimum 10 cycles for a perfect win from any party - this kind of slow game with this many people is bound to be dead by day 6 with everyone just yearning for the sweet release of death. Furthermore, the mechanic of “only the player targetted by the majority of factions” is close to meaningless; more than likely every faction will target a different person (especially if they selected another evil faction). The kill will be randomized every night which is not great for balance, since game advantage is heavily dependent on RNG. Also how would evils interpret what happens when their selected kill just… doesn’t go through if they don’t know other evils exist? Overall an extremely slow game with aconfusing and swingy nightkill, unsuitable to run.

Please privately vote in your rolecard on whether this denial was REASONABLE or UNREASONABLE. Voting will end at 2024-06-10T09:00:00Z!

I wanna be the towniest

To kill them is my cause

I will ISO across the threads
For this vital chase
Each wolfy post that I have read

I’ll earn all the guild cookies
(F-A-M)
Oh, you’re my top town
And the wolves we shall bring down
F-A-M (Gotta catch 'em all), a flip so true
Our towncore will pull us through
You teach me, and I’ll teach you
F - A - M
(Gotta catch 'em all!)
Gotta catch 'em all!
F-A-M!

Prepare for trouble!
Make it double!
To protect the thread from benefaction!
To unite all guilds within our faction!
To promote the virtues of lies and dread!
To extend our reach to the cookie thread!

Team Werewolf blasts off up into the sky!
Surrender now or prepare to die!

Night 3 Deaths

Artemis died!

Click here for flip

Text-based rolecard

BradLand
Town Aspiring Hero

You are a member of The Joycat Nomads.

Tunnel
Night Action — Multitaskable
Tunnel target player. If they die during the next Day and reveal to be unallied, gain 1 Vindication Charge. If they die and reveal to be allied, gain 1 Condemnation Charge. You may only target each player once per game.

Hard Shield
Night Action — Multitaskable
Shield player who ended the previous Day with the 2nd or Third most votes, or was targeted by 2 or more ITA shots. If they do not die, or die and are revealed to be allied, gain 1 Vindication Charge. If they die and reveal to be unallied, gain 1 Condemnation Charge. You may only target each player once per game.

Vindicate
Night Action — Key
Spend 1 Vindication Charge to inspect target player, and learn their alignment. If the cost is less than 4 Vindication Charges , increase the cost by 1 Vindication Charge.

Condemn
Passive
You gain the following effects based on the number of Condemnation Charges you have:

1: You become Unlucky (an Unlucky player will lose a tie when possible, and other random chances are rolled twice with the worse roll for you being used).

2: Action results including your alignment will receive Mafia.

3: You become Vulnerable. Vindicate becomes Loud.

4: You can no longer use both Tunnel and Hard Shield during the same Night (they are still otherwise Multitaskable).

5: ITA shots targeting you will resolved as if their shooter was Lucky (direct hits are rolled twice with the roll more likely to kill you being used).

6: You lose all other role abilities.

You are Bradland, Town Aspiring Hero. Known for your extreme conviction as town (especially when hard-defending women you are friends with), you frequently push your strong townreads or scumreads in game. Normally, being vindicated just gives you the chance to say you were right; this game, it does more than that.

You win when the Mafia and all other threats to the Town have been eliminated.

beancat
Town Comparison Cop

You are a member of The Joycat Nomads .

Headcanoning OP
Passive
You have an additional Super Like per Day (2 total).

Height Thread
Night — Key
Inspect 2 target players, living or dead, and choose 1 of the following characteristics to compare them on:

Character height (values taken from Bean’s Headcanon Heights where possible, and completely made up otherwise)

Role strength (host opinion)

Action Danger Level (host opinion)

HP

Super Likes received on posts (game total)

If posts of yours received 3 or more Super Likes during the previous Day, choose 2 instead. You cannot choose a characteristic if it has been chosen more times than another characteristic (this means it works like a cycle JOAT). Results will be 1 of “First Player Favored”, “Second Player Favored”, or “Neither Player Favored”. (“Favored” means they are taller, have the stronger role, have the most dangerous action, have more HP, or their posts received more Super Likes.)

You are beancat, Town Comparison Cop. As the creator of the thread “Bean’s Headcanon Heights,” your thread became wildly more popular than its predecessor “Discrimination based upon how tasty your username sounds.” This game, you have the chance to put your comparisons to the test with your completely objective, no-host-discretion-required comparisons.

You win when the Mafia and all other threats to the Town have been eliminated.

crazynuto died!

Current rolecard

Current text-only rolecard

Original rolecard

Amelia
Mafia BotC Storyteller

You are a member of The Joycat Nomads .

As the Gardener tills the soil
Night Action — 1-shot Compulsive
For each allied Unwritten player, give 1 Story action to them (you lose it), the action loses Story, and they lose Unwritten. When you give away nine of the jury died last night to a player, give them Surprise! as well. When you and all players you gave Story actions to are dead, this loses Classified (even if this happens while you are dead). You may only use this during Night 0.
(A Classified ability has its name, tag line, and text fully redacted except for the Classified tag. It is ignored by inspection effects e.g. a role cop.)

poisoner’s poisons compounding
Night Action — Key Story
Block target player. You cannot target the same player on consecutive Nights.

spies seem double
Night Action — Key Story
Observe target player, and learn who they visit and who visits them during the Night.

fragments of poems // the dreams of lost lovers
Immediate Night Action — Key Multitaskable Sealed Story
Dig up target dead player, and use a role action of theirs that cannot kill or gain you new abilities in any way. Then, that action becomes Sealed. You may only target each player once per game. (You still must pay costs that action has such as Charges. This does not ignore X-shot restrictions. The action you use resolves when it normally does, and isn’t Immediate)
(Sealed — This ability cannot be interacted with while the player who owns it is dead.)

nine of the jury died last night
Night Action — Key Story
Give target player an ITA Shield that is destroyed at the end of the next Day.

ITA Shield
Item
If you would be killed by an ITA shot ( either via direct hit or reaching 0 HP ), destroy this item, and protect yourself from that action instead. ( You won’t take damage when this happens. This will have the feedback of “Miss!” That feedback may be viewed as “sus” in this game. )

Surprise!
Immediate Day Action — 1-shot
Kill target player. You may only use this if you have used a Key Night action 2 or more times this game. You may not use this is if it is an ability of your original role.

You are Amelia, Mafia BotC Storyteller. Although you don’t play much mafia these days, you are one of the top posters in the BotC discussion thread, and you’ve storytold several BotFs. Of course, longform BotF is legendarily hard to balance, so this game we’re making it a bit easier, by adding the Gardener fabled to give you the chance to assign certain specific tokens to your partners.

You win if no more threats to the Mafia exist or nothing can prevent that from happening.

Jane died! They can post 5 times during this Day!

Frostwolf103
Town Vampiric Adventurer

You are a member of The Throne of Boomers

You are a Socialist.

You are Vampiric. You are a Lieutenant.

You begin the game with 3 Hemolyph Charges.

Blood Bond
Passive
Whenever a Vampiric player other than you wins an event, you receive 1 Cookie. Whenever another Vampiric player dies, you lose 1 Hemolyph Charge.

Diablerie
Passive
Votes for you for anything other than the elimination will count as X votes instead, and you are X times as likely to become the Leader of a Guild when randomness is involved where X is the number of Hemolyph Charges you have. You cannot be recruited into a Guild while you are the member of a Guild. You receive 1 Cookie at the beginning of each Night. If you become the Leader of a Guild, you receive 3 Cookies, and you gain 3 Hemolyph Charges.

Exsanguinate
Day Action
Bite target player, they become Vampiric, and reduce their ITA damage by an additional -3 while they are Vampiric. You gain 1 Hemolyph Charge.

Intelligence of JOAKIM
Night Action — Key
Submit a description of an action to the hosts that includes all necessary targets and choices, and perform a version of that action. The hosts will determine what effect(s) that action has. The hosts will roll a d20, add X to the result where X is the number of Hemolyph Charges you have, and use that number to determine how powerful the action may be (higher is better). Any action that kills in any way, or inspects or reveals a player’s alignment in any way will be rejected. (We will let you know exactly what the action does once we decide, but if we do it prior to the submission deadline the action cannot be changed in any way at that point.)

Cycling Professional
Night Action — 1-shot Multitaskable
Make a randomly chosen role Day or Night action only usable during the opposite Phase during the next Cycle. (If a Night action is chosen, it’s only usable during the Day and vice versa.)

You are Frostwolf103, Town Vampiric Adventurer. You enjoy the TTRPG Vampire: The Masquerade, and have hosted a mafia game based on it. You also enjoyed winning as a serial killer named Joakim in AI Upick Mafia. We aren’t making you a serial killer this game, but we are letting upick your abilities. Also, you’re a vampire. Spooky.

You win when the Mafia and all other threats to the Town have been eliminated.

sulit
Town homieposter

You are a member of The Joycat Nomads.

daily homie pics
Passive — Key
While you are alive, the public thread 100000th post gets a homie is open during the Day, and players may only post pictures of animals that do not contain any game related information. (For legal reasons, you would get a homie, not the homie.)

homieposting (chill)
Day Action — Compulsive
On Day 2, choose up to 5 players who have posted in the 100000th post gets a homie thread (you may choose yourself), and the chosen players may post freely in the 100000th post gets a homie thread during the following Night without restriction (including game related information).

homieposting (sinister)
Day Action — Compulsive
On Day 4, choose 2 players who have posted in the 100000th post gets a homie thread. You and the chosen players may post freely in the 100000th post gets a homie thread during the following Night without restriction (including game related information). You and each chosen player are given a glass, and you choose one of those glasses to poison. It will be announced that one of the glasses is poisoned, that each player must drink their glass at the end of the Night, and that they may choose to switch their glass exactly once by including in a post “swap my glass with [player]“ in bold, red text, and mentioning the game host. The player who drinks the poisoned glass becomes Poisoned.
(Poisoned — This tag has a secret value of either “real” or “fake”, and it defaults to “real” unless otherwise stated. A “real” Poisoned player dies at the end of the next or current Day, whichever happens first, unless the tag is removed. It is publicly announced at the beginning of each Day which players are Poisoned.)

You are sulit, Town homieposter. You brought the “daily homie pics” thread to FoL, where you post daily pictures of your adorable grey cat, Honeycat, a.k.a. homiecat, a.k.a. homie. Of course, you’re not the only one on the site to have photogenic cats, so this game you’ll also be facilitating the spread of other cute animal pictures. But homiecat is still the best.

You win when the Mafia and all other threats to the Town have been eliminated.

WindwardAway died! Her role will be revealed when another King has been elected!

A player was successfully anti-claimed during the Night!
