Spectator Thread VIP tour of the game developer offices

[lokiduck]

Scum shold have motivated maol

would have been amazing if he had gotten the motivator lol. I feel like he would have gotten the post by then.

Scum is now hoping he didn't LOL.

 

[weemadarthur]

so somebody with a low post count is RPing LP?

melon is weekey but only sends messages to darkside? Then darkside is either ephi or fate….or melon makes weird choices, iono.

 

[lokiduck]

Spoiler

We would have told someone if they were vanilized.

 

[heymonkey]

turmoil's reaction feels more likely to be mafia. If so I hope he's not actually me because I don't wanna be scum. :(

eta: though if it's based on memes and past roles lol scum is definitely more likely for me

 

[weemadarthur]

Spoiler

We would have told someone if they were vanilized.

Why? Doesn’t seem…like….required.

 

[lokiduck]

Spoiler

 

[weemadarthur]

The mods are sending Dark those messages though. Mods are too conceited to make themselves 2-shot.

Someone wants to die lol.

 

[FateShirou]

the stern and serious faddy has to ruin things again
blobsheesh

 

[heymonkey]

yessssss, go after Bojack, yesssss
this is literally why I joined spec :D

 

[lokiduck]

Someone wants to die lol.

I literally made the game where everyone was a messenger and he reviewed it. He's right :bloblamp:

 

[weemadarthur]

So, melon claims to select a target. I HOPE darkside is COINCIDENTALLY ephidel. That would be meta.

 

[Sawneeks]

before they turbo i'm putting $150 down on haw being scum who wants to take my bet

[FateShirou]

town is mean :(

 

[heymonkey]

Thorny could totally be scum. It's just hard for me to see it because I don't hate her arguments, so if she's scum, maybe I'm just feeling scummy.

 

[weemadarthur]

Thorny could totally be scum. It's just hard for me to see it because I don't hate her arguments, so if she's scum, maybe I'm just feeling scummy.

But she said things i could agree with; ergo scum. Only when we are diametrically opposed can we be on the same side.

 

[heymonkey]

I am glad I bounced from replacements and didn't get called up. I don't want to untangle this. But they should definitely hear from everyone at least.

 

[heymonkey]

Thorny had a post today that makes me swing her scum side. Idk. I have a hard time with competing claims when I’m in spec. I don’t have the same urgency to solve and I haven’t read the game as closely. Tbh I’d say it’s equally likely they’re both scum at this point lol

 

[AllThingsPurple]

Really sorry Hawthorn I botched day 1 horribly for both of us

 

[weemadarthur]

Hedin does seem to be town VIP here.

but working against faddy and maolfunction is hard when scum, they’re both very tenacious

 

[heymonkey]

I’m scummy IRL confirmed

RIP Launchthorn

 

[heymonkey]

Oh, but this means my garlic is town, right?? YAY! Okay, I feel better. I can be wrong forever, it’s fine.

 

[heymonkey]

Hmm. Day 2 votes sure are strange. Scum stacked on Sparks.

 

[FateShirou]

My bad. It will not happen again. I am deeply sorry and am really apologizing for what I've done. I truly am sorry. From the bottom of my heart. The fact that I've done this is just... I'm so sorry. I will not allow anything like this to happen ever again. I feel very bad about myself now. I promise this will absolutely never happen again in the future. You're upset. I'm upset. Indeed, it truly was my own fault for causing this to happen in the first place. My own actions have led me to this. I hope my apology was sincere enough. My bad.

 

[Fanto]

Love the dog sniffer lmao, still one of my finest role creations.

 

[lokiduck]

Oh, but this means my garlic is town, right?? YAY! Okay, I feel better. I can be wrong forever, it’s fine.

Everyone might assume you'd be scum so we wanted to balance that by...

Spoiler

making you both town and scum through Garlic Monkey and Monkey Original flavor lol. I also didn't want to make you the doc because that'd be too obvious but Jailer seemed perfect :D

Love the dog sniffer lmao, still one of my finest role creations.

I was thinking from the get go that Launchkey could fake claim dog sniffer, Launchpad who helped me with his PM was the one who made it what the role is today and picked his command

I mainly made launchkey the strongman because of his name :bloblamp:

 

[lokiduck]

Attention! Spectators dead players we have a new question

Is the Scum team 4 or less?

Please answer with a highlighted text yes or no.

 

[Hawthorn]

no

 

[Hawthorn]

May not have been perfect play by us this game, but I did have a strategic reason for my seemingly lunatic behavior today, and I think we had good fun getting creative.

loki, please say there’s a neutral

 

[FateShirou]

There’s a second scum team

 

[Hawthorn]

ATP & Fate, you should join me in the no answer btw :-D

I think this is my first time getting night killed. It was always being voted out up to now.

Wait I think I was night killed in Berserk IIRC.

 

[heymonkey]

hi, turmoil! I'm sorry I suspected you/myself :D but I was out here so it didn't matter.

I love that the power of :heymonkey: was enough to jail people.

Lol it's always fun to have something different happen. Your tendency to be voted out influenced your role actually :D

You'll see ;) If they get voted out

 

[turmoil7]

I haven't read a post from this day phase yet so I want to put my last guess for scum here before digging in the game thread: Geno and Bojack

 

[lokiduck]

This post is amazing.

We could have used

 

[turmoil7]

Well I don't mind the mass claim idea so I'll start it off. I also kind of really, really hate this game now, you could say I am demotivated, because of something that happened so I'll get it off my chest.

I am Baronkey, the governor with 1 shot dayvig. Did not have the ability day 1 or day 2, gained it on day 3. It required me to post 3 images and/or gifs on day 1 and day 2 and it unlocks day 3. Obviously have not tried to use it yet.

I got a "happy meal" last night and decided to open it since it looks like most people got negative rewards out of it, thinking there must be some positive ones but nope. I got "rewarded" with... a demotivation which takes away 1 shot from my ablity that was a 1 shot.

So I'm a day vig without the ability to shoot at all. And my trigger phrase was the badass THEN PERISH. But nobody will be perishing from my hands. And I will never buy another happy meal in my life.

Theres no way for me to prove my role so if you guys vote me off I get it. I was trying to just stay neutral day 1 and 2, thinking scum would try to wagon me at some point and I could shoot back but it never happened. To me I'm guessing its because scum vanilla'd me but I have no way to prove that at all now.

Anyway decided to put in my claim, I am really, really not feeling this game right now. And this way someone else doesn't claim dayvig if they somehow know I have no shots left

Goddamn it that's some bad luck

 

[weemadarthur]

I love nin’s claim AND the role described in it.

i also believe it. geno is far scummier really.

 

[turmoil7]

A "PLEASE WAIT" followed by a modkill for misusing highlight tags would be comedic

 

[weemadarthur]

Too helpful for the game state maybe tho lol. Still, if blarg doesn’t have that role, he knows better.

 

[lokiduck]

*sighs into the void*

 

[weemadarthur]

Babysitting is hard, yo.

Sorian says he got melon’s message, turm was out of shots presumably so he couldn’t jail her for checking-up and died for town cred anyway.

Blarg isn’t helpful to town so far, but i dunno if he’s last scum over geno. I doubt the poe can be defeated here.

is salva neutral? Last scum?

 

[Sawneeks]

RIP Turm. Good job on catching Haw and hopefully Town won't let your death be in vain!

 

[turmoil7]

I jailed

Spoiler

Bojack

instead of Melon because I figured Melon successfully sending her message would confirm she wasn't the one who did the NK, and that info could potentially be useful to narrow the PoE

 

[lokiduck]

lol hopefully Bojack shows up before they turbo him would be a funny way to end the game.

 

[turmoil7]

I love the idea of someone being a mcdonalds lore expert

 

[lokiduck]

Was about to say. The expert is literally who the role is for

 

[weemadarthur]

It is time…..to schedule darkside…..for a powerpoint presentation!

also darkside you did good this game, it’s not your fault you got an evil toy and can’t shoot anyone.

Already informed his teacher he'll need a lesson.

And yes he did :blushfrog: He got those pic/gifs in promptly and following the requirements.

Wee didn't want her cute avatar garlic'd so she just asked Coppa to make whatever he wanted lol.

 

[Alexem]

That claim and results post from nin was an all-timer.

 

[Alexem]

Now that Wiz has claimed, I'm going to admit to being the one who paired up the Happy Meal toys with their effects. They're honestly not all bad ones, it's just that the choices have been unlucky.

I'll also admit that my flavour contributions to the game were the messages that the 'lucky' receipients receive when they open the box. As none of those have been mentioned so far...

Your Happy Meal contains a Birdie toy! She’s that loveable bird who’s there to brighten up everyone’s day and – oh, what’s this? Sorry, we’ve just been informed that Birdie “officially sucks”. Who said that? But if that’s true, then I suppose…

You will be hated during the next day phase and will require one vote less than majority to be eliminated.

Your Happy Meal contains a Grimace toy! Just looking at his winning smile makes you feel good about yourself – so good, in fact, that you’re motivated!

If you have a role with limited uses, one more shot has now been added.

Your Happy Meal contains an Officer Big Mac toy! Following a thorough background check, he’s willing to vouch for you if you get into trouble… but why was he looking in to you anyway? (He may be a hamburger, but you know what they say about cops…)

You have received a key. Should another player attempt to jail you overnight, it will fail. The key can only be used once, so a further attempt on a subsequent night would be unsuccessful.

Your Happy Meal contains a Mac Tonight toy! Once, he was there to tell us about getting together for a meal in the evening in a soulful style… but sadly, time has not been kind to his image. We won’t dwell on what the internet have done to our moon-faced friend, but just thinking about it has left you demotivated. All he wanted to do was sell burgers.

If you have a role with limited uses, you have lost one shot if any still remain.

 

[turmoil7]

Don't worry Bojack, it's hard for me to believe you are town too

 

[turmoil7]

Lovers, parity cop, jailer, bodyguard, mod-confirmed, restricted watcher... Too many investigators. Nin must be lying

 

[turmoil7]

I forgot how many shots did Sorian claim.

Was it enough to get a single set of results or enough for two?

I guess just one?

 

[Verelios]

Sorian claimed 1 shot, yeah.

 

[weemadarthur]

Also I always wonder this but forget to ask, weemad what theme is your trucy edited after?

This green one is a combo of the trucy drawn for me by Platy and fireblend’s old frog avatar, made when we played Mario Kart.

 

[Hawthorn]

Loved nin’s claim so much. Also loved Donnie’s reveal that he had been roleplaying as Stan

Really sorry Hawthorn I botched day 1 horribly for both of us

Missed this earlier, but you absolutely did not, we just had bad luck — we werent even really colluding on that issue! I had so much fun playing with you & Fate & all the remaining 10 members of our team.

Spoiler: Scum eyes only

Good job dead scum. You have confused your scum team as well and now they thinks they can recruit someone ;w;

Going to spend time trying to recruit peeps with their track

Spoiler

Not the only time we’ve been hoist by our own petard this game

 

[heymonkey]

if no one has yet made a "parody cop" joke, I'm ashamed of us.

Anyway LOL at Bojack, my reads are super trash this game and I'm glad I never got called up to replace or I'd have worked to tank it for everyone.

 

[turmoil7]

I guess Faddy is me? Lol

 

[heymonkey]

Hedin is doing great but also LOL at taking spec's word as gospel. But A++++++ TZ reference, nice job. I also agree with his analysis that Faddy's role sticks out a bit here and that I struggle to place that role in a game with lovers (self-confirms), a celebrity (mod confirm), an override/vig/gov/whatever (confirm). Though Hedin's wrong on one thing - a confirm via escape artist does have a drawback, and it's the drawback of a nigh-wasted day to get that reveal.

*I* just think that's too many self-confirms in a game, but I also know that I'm an outlier on that in review, so I wouldn't read the game based on it.

(eta in fact Faddy has more drawback than Bojack, but game not bastard)

 

[weemadarthur]

Ok but Faddy was confirmed via parity cop unless sorian is scum AND faddy is scum. Or other thing like switcher/donnie is scum but sorian is town, etc.

 

[heymonkey]

Ok but Faddy was confirmed via parity cop unless sorian is scum AND faddy is scum.

I want this to be the reality because it's funny.

I also want to know who Donnie's flavor is, because the only time I've seen someone successful with what he's spinning was Rover, who was already another role. But Rover did this spectacularly in live mafia - truly one of the most memorable moments on the server!!

 

[weemadarthur]

Having a dayvig and a chain-reaction superkill seems OP really. Granted town killers generally don’t hit scum.

 

[Sawneeks]

hahahaha

@heymonkey it's official, i'm cooler than you

 

[turmoil7]

Donnie, you have permission granted for memeing it up

Use your power

Maol: why we solving on mechanics
Also Maol: hold up nin’s role makes no sense

lolololololol
I have been there so I had to laugh at this.

 

[Sawneeks]

shout outs to bojack for adding sunglasses to his avatar. when i noticed it i laughed

Yeah loling at Hedin just assuming I'm the one answering him, but he's not the only one that believes I'm the one answer (poor scum :cor:)

Also I get the thought about a lot of confirm powers. We tried to balance that with Garlic Monkey being able to claim vote thief lol and also included a lot of non confirm roles. Plus there's a chance people lose shots like Darkside did, get vanilized, or killed before they can be confirmed.

Having a dayvig and a chain-reaction superkill seems OP really. Granted town killers generally don’t hit scum.

It is a super beefy role, but it comes with a few caveats

1. Scum has a vanilizer that can vanil the berserker before they hit more scum/prevent it from happening
2. The Demotivator also wa s athing
3. Vigs usually shoot town.
4. The Berserker dies if they shoot town.
5. Governor is an override not a dayvig. He just picks who is voted out, not get an extra kill.

i demand a recount

To be completely honest, she mostly won because her sunglasses and jacket give her a +50 to charisma. :D

 

[lokiduck]

I'm glad Bo claimed even if it was right after I was supposed to be in bed. Would have been awkward if he had been turboed

[turmoil7]

Wow nin was town

I will never doubt Obama again

 

[heymonkey]

I'm really surprised there was not much discussion of early nin v ATP. Didn't someone say early that scumnin wouldn't engage ATP in that way? What happened to that position?
