MajorMitchell, you seem rather over-stimulated.

Perhaps you should go and have a little sit down and a nice cool glass of milk.

A question on the Tadpole:

I assume that if a Town player receives the Tadpole and is deciding whether to accept or destroy it, they are allowed to ignore the usual rule about playing to their win condition while they are making that choice. Right?

I hope this Rune stuff won't occur in actual game thread.

I demand that the GM post flavour posts exclusively in Elder Futhark.

if a gm wants to run a game where they hand pick roles and there is no RNG that should absolutely be allowed if its part of the games theme. like an all stars game or something unique. Or a role madness or a upick. I think if you force a must always be 100% RNG rule you eliminate tons of game conce...

Is there a Wikipedia page (under the domain wikipedia.org, in English) about this person?

Yes, but I would avoid asking this question in the future because the answer is almost always guaranteed to be "yes".

Mostly, but not always (see game 117).

What are the rules about this anyways? It seems like there is a consensus that GMs handpicking players for roles is bad, and randomization is good. "Rerolling" randomized roles is sometimes acceptable. Is there a rule or Kouncil decision that GMs cannot handpick players for roles? I've seen (and re...

First off dont come flying in here calling my games bastard and my methodology bastard. Show me real examples of bastard games ive run. No backpedalling. No whataboutisms. Prove your talking point that used as toxic of verbiage as possible. "Bastard mod" is common terminology in the Mafia community...

The far more problematic issues with games recently has not been gm rand decisions. Its been poorly balanced or totally imbalanved setups. Random new rules being pushed or rescinded at random. Player numbers dwindling and a council that lacked membership. Too many role madness setups from gms which...

Hi everyone. I'm interested to see this discussion arise as it's a long time since it was last talked about. I feel reasonably well-qualified to chip in here, as I have GM-ed somewhere in the region of 15 games on this site. In those I have had some superstar co-GMs including Dargorygel (several tim...

Give me a few minutes, I have some things to say about this discussion point.

Well done town!

Well done, Sweetandcool. You did very well.

Honourable mentions for Balki and BunnyGo too.

Commiserations to the forces of evil.

Bozo, you can feel free to endvote here. We're all done, I think.

(And in future Bozo please don't behave like such a weirdo when you are on the same team as me).

I guess it has to be this way, then. It certainly can't be Bozo; so I was wrong about that. If Sweet has pulled the wool over our eyes it would be quite an impressive feat. If Sweet is the Cop and has managed to live to endgame, it is quite an impressive feat too. Either way, well played, Sweet. ##...
