Couldn't have asked for a better ending to my last game for a while, and I loved all the flavor. Thanks a lot somber! Also we pretty much had it down to capps and chili in the masonry for the last couple days so that feels good too. Thanks apostate you were a cool mason buddy!

I never caught on that there was a serial killer, that's true.

What was Chili? A clockwork monstrosity created by her mad scientist husband, Uder. Most of this flavor was jacked from an old roleplaying game adventure which you can read here, if you like. I recently ran this irl while I was running the game and it was a lot of fun, Steve managed to get away there  JOAT I like roles that give players choices, so JOAT has always been a favorite role of mine. Ninth’s role was almost certainly too powerful in retrospect. Each night, he could choose between an unblockable kill, a janitor kill, and a ninja kill, but he could not choose the same power two nights in a row. The idea here was that any one of these would be useful, but would leave Ninth vulnerable to another town role. The unblockable kill would beat the doctor and bulletproof, but would be visible to the watcher and tracker. The ninja kill would beat the watcher and tracker but would risk being blocked. The janitor kill could deny the town useful information and give Ninth a handy claim, but poo poo could go sideways with the stump revival. I should have made these one-use only powers. I was scum recently with an Assassin on my team and it didn’t seem like a big deal, but in a game with multiple kills it really, really is. If nothing else, I should have made this only able to go through the first protection. Still, I like the idea behind this role. It’s a shame we didn’t get to see it in action. Double-Voter/Lynchbomb Again, crippled by a dead teammate day one. Still a very very powerful role, but it removed any real interesting choice. I feel okay about giving Scum a double-vote, any night they had the chance to die to Chili. Ella Chili expressed a lot of interesting thoughts to me over the course of the game about his role. Serial-killers are a tough role to run or play, but I think he played it about as well as anyone could, right down to the crazy claims. The thing is, having a kill is a crazy powerful thing. It's also very dangerous. I wanted to give Ella protection from a night kill, but with the twist that she'd have to convince her partner not to out her. Chili's claim was probably a better role than what I came up with! Inventors The same way that no one trust an unconfirmed mason pair, I've found that few people trust inventor pairs. This didn't really play out like I thought it would, due to some great coordination on the town end. I thought the EpiPen stump revival would be fun/cool but it was kind of a pain to mod around! I like to send ~elaborate~ death flavor and I couldn't do that with this thing floating around. I'd be way more careful about using a stump in the future. Town MVP: Probably Quid or AC. Quid blocking two kills at the start was huge. AC had it wrapped up at the end. I dunno, you guys would know better! Scum MVP: Capps you got so close! Big props man, you played a hell of a game. I just want to give a huge hand to everyone who played. This was a very fun game to run and you have all been very accommodating and forgiving of any mistakes or confusion on my end. Congratulations on a game well played, everyone, and Happy Halloween.

I was almost right  apostateCourier posted:Ugh I wanted to vote for Chili so bad the whole game but I knew it was just bias but now I know otherwise Yeah he was pinging me like hell but I was so focused on just keeping myself alive that I didn't really gave any thought to it. My heart was not in it when I sided with him those last few days

i just mentioned this in the mafia thread but the main reason why this was a great game to me is that the setup really matched the flavor's theme and created an atmosphere like i really did felt like a terrible con man bumbling his way in a murder house this is amazing

Technically zyzxx dies the same time as Chili and Chili wins when he's the only player left alive. But he's not the only player left alive if they die at the same time; he's dead. Anyway good game!! Sorry I got lynched so early capps. I ended up being super busy on that one day and there wasn't much I could do about it.

As a sidenote, your role flavor was one of the few I wrote completely from scratch. I really liked the idea of poor Alicia trying to survive night after night in this house through the power of positive thinking.

The best game is the one that ends with everyone dead.  This was fun! Thanks for modding.
