Questions FM - GAME OVER (Mafia Victory)

Based on this conversation, I want to host two more games:

  1. Stupidest FM: Everyone has a “bad role”. (E.g. PGO and Bus Driver)
  2. Blackjack FM: Nobody knows the effect of their role. Their abilities change every night. At any phase, they may ask to [fold], and they will be stuck with whatever role they get and they will get to know what their current role does.

after shooting that night

For that to happen, you’d have to gamble that your 1S is a vigi.

Eh… That works, actually. IDK why you would fold then, instead of getting a new ability though.

Since it’s still just “inject chaos into the game to very little benefit.”

Like a regular redirection role can do that to a degree but usually has more agency. A Bus Driver hurts that agency since mistakes tend to be hugely swingy in a negative direction for the user.

Reflexive roles just in general need restrictions to not be absurdly swingy. It’s why they still worked in Trinity Blood (a game of mine over on MC). But mass-redirective roles just don’t need to be swapping. Swapping specifically has just such a huge jump between being useful/impactful versus useless/irrelevant.

(Not to mention that most of the useful cases are miserable.)

Also, whatever role you get stuck with is guarenteed to be detrimental to your team with all future role lists

You are a [Town] Decanter


[Passive Ability] Ooga Booga Pukka Po, Gacha Pacha Shabalo

[Night Ability] Bring into the Circle (Other; Support)
Upon activating this ability, choose a target.
If your target publicly says the name of your first ability today, their team wins immediately at the end of the day, if they are alive. In the case of a tie caused by your abilities, Mafia wins.


Your win condition is to eliminate all Mafia, and have at least one Town alive.

It’s the fact that everyone is mostly blind to their roles and don’t know what the hell we are, mixed with the fact that you’re adding bastard roles like Godfather in, and you got literal FAKE RED CHECKS IN THE SAME GAME AS WELL!

It’s entirely fucking mafsided.

I don’t remember doing this, or having a read on Osie in general. You could be right though but to my knowledge I don’t think I had a true read on him.

Okay, I’m going to post from this account actually to make this easier.

First of all, I apologize for how I acted during this game towards the players. I acted in a way that was entirely condescending and insulting towards everyone on the site, and it’s especially worse when I did it while being entirely detrimental to town in my play.

This…setup and game just sucked. It should not have been allowed to be run without changing things, and whoever accepted this I WANT to know why they did.
The concept is neat, but you mix with the players being blind to their roles, the roles being closed, and the fact that the role effects (Again, literally fucking fake red and green checks both in the same game…come the fuck on) it just makes it all entirely mafsided and impossible for town to get anywhere.

The neighborhood I find to be fine, we knew that it said “neighborhood” and it’s up to Kiiruma and I to read all slots that were in said neighborhood correctly and we didn’t do so. I can’t speak for Kiiruma with how he was reading, but for myself I was being lazy and just hoped all 3 were town. THAT was my fault.

What makes me even more angry about the setup, was the fact that on Day 1 my only scumread that I had on the game was on Hippo. I couldn’t explain why because I have a horrific ability to do so, and I don’t go absolutely nuts for a yeet to go through unless I’m extremely confident on the player flipping mafia.
I used my night action on Hippo to see what would happen, and like I said, I got a green check out of it. So I thought I was an alignment cop, and I kind of got excited because I got a role that’s extremely useful and there’s no real chance I fuck up my night action.

Low and behold it ended up hard shielding a mafia member…because fuck my life.

Also the host didn’t give me my role changing until AFTER I asked my 4 questions Day 2, which left me in the dark without a real chance to gain any vision.

Like others said, I avoid games hosted by Zone in the future.

Again to the players and to those on this site, I apologize for my behavior.

GG.
