Yeah it's annoying, how's everyone's day been otherwise? I got a busy as gently caress weekend coming up cause of Minifauxnen's birthday. On Saturday I'm taking her to the cat cafe cause she's finally old enough to be allowed in, then on Sunday we got the actual party at the trampoline/laser tag/ninja place

GM VOICE: I agree that OMGVBFLOL's behavior is obnoxious (as he is presumably an adult human in at least his 30s, based on his registration date, my official ruling is "Congratulations on finding a loophole in a rule in an internet forum game to grab onto to make other adult humans have a worse time! You are truly living your best life, my dude!"), but after conferring with SA-mafia veteran spectators I have decided to just continue to wait rather than change the rules again mid-game. This statement has absolutely no relationship to OMGVBFLOL's alignment, nor any other player's alignment in this game, nor indeed anything about the game at all. I believe the rule change that I've already made will avert any further anti-fun shenanigans from 4pm EDT tomorrow onwards.

Just as the journalists predicted, and indeed thanks to their clout-chasing - a self-fulfilling prophecy endemic to media under late capitalism if ever there was one - twitter lost its poo poo. The usual media personalities wasted no time transmogrifying the abject destruction of tropical forests into banal DiScOuRsE about cancel culture and wokeness. Ultimately, some voices on the Extremely Online Left converged on the view that US-based environmental non-profits were in fact driving, rather than addressing, irreversible climate catastrophe. These global behemoths, they contended, had directed tropical forest conservation policy in the global South for far too long, with no accountability to the communities most affected. With a mix of cynical and sincere motives, the politicians, community representatives, and journalists present in the heated room in Nueva Esperanza latched onto this idea. They had a compelling justification: surely, folks with the most at stake should have the greatest voice in the matters that affect them, right? The deliberations were tense, complete with one very long and awkward silence as the participants waited for an overdue coffee break. The attendees griped for a bit, understandably: after all, you can’t root out evil-doers without Certified Organic Net-Zero CoffeeⓇ. Eventually, though, the folks in the room overwhelmingly agreed: that big, corrupt, charismatic panda has got to go! Opopanax has been removed from the game! Opopanax was: The US-BASED ENVIRONMENTAL NON-PROFIT! Your alignment is TOWN/FOREST PROTECTOR  VICTORY CONDITION: You win when all threats to town are eliminated. You have a bloated big budget, and your board is every year more densely populated with corporate assholes. The truth is, no one wins when they deal with your big bumbling brand of liberal environmentalism. But for folks who don’t want to see the world’s tropical forests sold off to extractive industries, tough luck! Your massive financial clout and networks of political influence make you impossible to get rid of, and in many places, you’re the only game in town! That doesn’t mean you know what you’re doing, or even really have much of an understanding of how your actions impact the world around you. PASSIVE: Each night phase, the first night action that targets you will automatically be redirected to a new target that is chosen at random (the new target will not be yourself nor the player that initiated the night action). You will be told the name of the player that targeted you. You will not be told the effect of the action that targeted you, nor will you be told the identity of the redirected target. This power cannot be blocked or deactivated by other powers. shwinnebego fucked around with this message at 06:52 on May 27, 2022 |

In the country's coastal capital, folks were feeling the reverberations of destruction at the forest frontier. Lotus Aura had worked at the docks since they were 16 years old, and had always understood the power of a good union. When workers in the city first heard news of the spike in deforestation in the far-away tropical periphery of their country, reactions were mixed. On the one hand, many workers in Lotus's union were distraught to hear that the beauty and bounty of the forest was at risk. For some it was personal, as they had migrated to the city from the jungle to find work. On the other hand, thousands of working people had just watched the president of the country speaking on television. He declared that without allowing foreign companies into the country, it would be impossible to develop, to grow the country’s wealth, and increase the prosperity of all citizens. This was an appealing idea to some urban workers - after all, why shouldn’t we benefit from the oil and land wealth in the tropical forests? Why leave it all in the ground where it wasn’t doing anyone any good? You can sell soy and beef for a hell of a lot more than standing trees and living toucans, after all. Lotus Aura knew that this was total horseshit. They understood from a young age that the though the forest was far from the city, its fate was intimately tied to the destiny of urban workers. They organized. They had spent the last three days furiously running meetings, bringing people together, and holding union teach-ins about solidarity with forest protectors. And tonight, the workers were ready: they were going to stage a SOLIDARITY STRIKE. But tragedy was afoot. The corporate entities that stand to profit from the destruction of tropical forests knew perfectly well that the organized labor was just too great a buzz-kill to allow at their orgy of rapacious ecocide. A bit of surveillance revealed to them the identity of the uppity labor leader who needed to get got. An explosion rang out at night from the residential area, and cries echoed throughout the concrete jungle. The workers held a vigil to aver that Lotus's memory would be a blessing; but today, urban labor would not be uniting with the cause of forest LOTUS AURA WAS REMOVED FROM THE GAME. You are the URBAN WORKER. Your alignment is TOWN/FOREST PROTECTOR  VICTORY CONDITION: You win when all threats to town are eliminated You may not live in the forest, but you know that your class interest lies in its protection. Our fates are all intertwined and you know it! POWER: Solidarity strike! Once per game you may deploy a vigilante kill. You can deploy it during the day, in which case the result will be returned at dusk. You alternatively deploy it at night, in which case the result will be returned at dawn. shwinnebego fucked around with this message at 00:15 on May 27, 2022 |

Ah okay I was all kinds of hosed up about D1 (I didn't realize the votes on Opop would still count, I thought nightfall would be like a do over/skip to night and D2 so I was shocked he was flipped.) It was still the right choice between the two, just caught me off guard. Grandi, GDE and Bif as town is a good start (Bif not confirmed but think her action was protown)

If either of us had any votes on us at the end of d1, we would not be town. If all of us weren't town, there would be no masonry. Thunderdome forced the issue, so no votes on anyone but Bif and Opop counted. So there were technically no votes on me or GDE even though OMG voted GDE at EOD like a dick.
