Can't wait to see what happens with the craziness, especially with the players involved. I'm especially rooting for Fireblend even if he did betray me in a dream :<
Fireblend is great, I love playing with him. So far I've played with him 3 times, and I've seen him as Town, Neutral, and Mafia, once each haha. I won't spoil what his alignment is in this game yet though!Can't wait to see what happens with the craziness, especially with the players involved.

I played with both Kits and Nin in my first game, GoT. There's actually a handful of players from GoT in here, Kopite, Zeke, B-Dubs, Melon, and Stan were all in it too, and Monkey, who is on the replacement list.They could have any alignement for all I know, but I'll be cheering for Kitsunelaine and nin.
Kitsunelaine was lunched pretty early in LB3 for weird reasons - a sudden change in activity - so I hope she has more of a chance to play and have fun this time.
Although nin was mislunched with little opposition in SU too, he also showed me that players can be more than their terrible taste for picking avatars, so I really want to see him in action again.
Let's go Kitsunin!
Is Fireblend your fave then? Pick a second player so we can argue about our candidates' arguing.

It's kind of weird that it hasn't even been a full year since I played in GoT, and now I'm running my own game lol. Life is strange, I suppose...
Town Fireblend was the scariest actually, because I was Scum and he totally called out the remaining Scum team after I died, but somehow we still won the game thanks to Nin's ridiculous "Alien Neutral Tracker" claim. Conspiracy was a helluva game lol.Unsure on the other two games, but I guess that you facing mafia!Fireblend was the time you hated him the most?

Neutral Fireblend was in MafiEra. The only thing that hurts there is that we never should have given him that god damn pizza lol. #NeverTrustNeutrals
Yep, I love Rac, and I am definitely rooting for him to have a great game here!As for rac, I find his way of gameplay interesting and usually find myself rooting for him because he is a really smart dude that keeps things close to his chest.
I don't really remember what he was up to in the early game other than laying low. I do remember him suddenly catching heat, claiming as the Neutral Pizza Lover, and then it's mainly just a blur of Cultists and treachery from then on tbh lol. I know he was around during all of that, I think I kind of remember leashing him and making him vote with me at some point lol.Honestly part of why I'm rooting for Fireblend is partly because he was my mentor (I hope he enjoyed my crazy theories), but mainly because of how he played in MafieEra.

Yes, I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how he plays. That introduction post intrigues me lol sounds like my kind of player!I'm really looking forward to see Mao clash with our meta :D
Didn’t see that we had a new veteran player! This should be fun to watch; looking back at some early games with Geno and Terra learning our meta and it’s always fun to see different perspectives like that.Spec Chat <3
Old people talk is lovely, will add later. But firstly:
I'm really looking forward to see Mao clash with our meta :D
Yes he is my favorite c: As for the others I'm excited to see how Stan and rac do. Stan because I actually really like him (And totally not because he saved Ket and I's butts <<) but so far I've only seen him as town so I'm curious what he's like as other alignments. As for rac, I find his way of gameplay interesting and usually find myself rooting for him because he is a really smart dude that keeps things close to his chest.

This will be my first time actually participating in spec chat, but I will try my best. XD I'm going to try my best to keep up with everything as it happens but we'll see. XDSo, for anyone familiar with the flavor, I would love to hear any predictions about what kind of roles you might expect to see in the game for different characters!
And of course, once the game starts, please give me your sickest reads. This is the second game in a row now where I know everything from the start. I live vicariously through your reads because I cannot make any of my own lol.
It's all good haha, Spec is fun. I love playing in games, but it's also really nice to take a break and just hang out in spec instead. I actually think this is the longest break I've taken now, a whole 2 games in a row lol.This will be my first time actually participating in spec chat, but I will try my best.

Again, don't judge me when you get to the end lol. I was way too emotionally invested in that game, but fuck it was still the most memorable one I've played in so far and I loved it, even though I totally exploded at the end and regret much of what I said, while also turning myself into a community meme lol.In either case I'm 30 pages from finishing MafiEra (the game thread, will still have to do all the OM chats) so I need to do that pronto before this game starts.

I just realized there's actually a lot more players from Conspiracy in here than there are from GoT.There's actually a handful of players from GoT in here
Yeah time in this community can be weird. I've read some super early data and although everything sounds a bit archaic it happened only a few years ago. Like, there're notable exceptions but I can't recall most of these early members being around anymore.
I think that would be a really cool idea! Maybe someone could design a game that incorporates some callbacks to the first few seasons or something, similar to how Bear had the different modifiers in the MafiEra game.How about an invitational for early members of the community? Maybe we can even pull some out of retirement. What do you people here think about this?
I'll keep that in mind, paging @The Bear just in caseI think that would be a really cool idea! Maybe someone could design a game that incorporates some callbacks to the first few seasons or something, similar to how Bear had the different modifiers in the MafiEra game.
He's Chloe lmao.nin said:I am as cool as Chloe in the first chapter of the game.
This community is well in it's fifth year and that itself is an awesome feat. Personally I never expected all of this to happen. Organisational wise it got a bit more focused around season 4/5. We had a massive growth spurt, just look at all these games in season 5. @RetroMG build our first sideforum and together with Ynnny they kept the show running.
Yay, Day 1 Begins!
Mao spoilers:
He’s Max. Time rewind ability. When cast during the day phase, it resets all votes to zero. One shot.
Breadcrumbing “time” and all that with his time difference remark.
Nin is cracking me up already lol.
Spoilers for Nin:
He's Chloe lmao.
Mao is certainly going to leave an impression, especially to Stan when he finally gets here. Maybe it's because I like Stan and I'm rooting for him, but I do not like that Mao is targeting him already like this :/
Stan has been picked on for the whole time zone every single game I have seen him in so for once I'd like for him to actually get a break :<
Maolfunction said:Getting a town consensus before deadline is always tricky. How many games have you played where town doesn't reach a consensus and then some random person is the one who gets voted off the island just because they happened to have the most votes EOD?
More safe and conservative reaction. People here don't like making gut reads early on, huh? Benefits scum more than town.
I like the early seriousness honestly. Could just be because it's keeping the game nice and active early on though. I do love me a hella active game and so far I am loving this one lol.I agree with everyone though, that so far the day 1 talk has really gotten serious fast, and I think a lot of that has to deal with nin and Mao. Nin has been asking questions (all be it in a joking way) and Mao's completely serious vote for Stan has really derailed the normal jokey atmosphere you see day 1.
Yep the way I see it with Mao right now, is either him getting lunched early for being too agressive, or him having to back down and hope everyone just accepts it. Mind you, there's always a chance he still manages to live the entire game with the same play style.Yeah this. The playstyle looks a bit too aggressive for me. And unless this is somehow related to his role/win con - won't be reading those spoilers yet - it sounds a bit too random. Like;
"Yeah it'd be nice to reach consensus as to not mislunch" then "why are you thinking about this instead of gut reading?".
By the way I hope Stan gets a game with a comfortably timed EoD at some point.
I doubt anyone is ever going to set their EoD at 2AM in the US, unless of course Stan is the gamerunner lol.By the way I hope Stan gets a game with a comfortably timed EoD at some point.
True, but I really enjoy shitpost on early day 1, especially since it allows everyone to get to know each other and maybe secretly breadcrumb. I mean in my game my partner was able to that way and I was even able to respond to it without anyone actually noticing or realizing we were partners.I like the early seriousness honestly. Could just be because it's keeping the game nice and active early on though. I do love me a hella active game and so far I am loving this one lol.
I'm honestly kind of down for a game he runs based on his D&D ranting and everyone's flavors are the different avatars he has had over the games. XDI doubt anyone is ever going to set their EoD at 2AM in the US, unless of course Stan is the gamerunner lol.
What would you do if I told you there are already breadcrumbs in the thread? :Pespecially since it allows everyone to get to know each other and maybe secretly breadcrumb.

What would you do if I told you there are already breadcrumbs in the thread? :P
Besides Stan? If that's the case that's impressive and not surprising because I'm terrible at picking up on breadcrumbs despite what Monkey said about my gameplay (And despite my fabulous new tag).What would you do if I told you there are already breadcrumbs in the thread? :P
Yeah, almost everyone has checked in now. Malus, Kopite, and Stan will likely check in overnight due to timezones/schedules.Good to see the players are having a bit more fun now since I left. I'm sure that'll happen as more players start checking in.
Crab was around when Era started but didn't stick around for long. It's been awhile since anyone talked to him :<What is Crab doing these days? Does anyone have a clue?
I believe in the *truffleshuffle*I also want to say I'm rooting for Zeke to have a good game here, he seemed kind of down on himself after SU so I'm hoping he has a good time.

It also hit me the other day that this place has been going for 5 years and even survived a forum change. When I started playing here I was 19 and just started college...
I'd be down for a Vet game, though. I'd love to get a ton of the old crew back to play but like you said most people have just gotten caught up in other stuff. We've just lost contact with a lot of people too because of the Era swap...
I debated making that your tag or just a direct link to that gif of yours lol but it's there xD@Pedro please make my tag say Confirmed Town when you see this lol.
I have no idea what gif you are referring to here...or just a direct link to that gif of yours
I'm actually liking what he's posting so far. He's been asking questions and had a pretty good analysis on Mao's early game. Though Mao claims that what he's doing is a bluff.I also want to say I'm rooting for Zeke to have a good game here, he seemed kind of down on himself after SU so I'm hoping he has a good time.

stan is going to throw several cuss words though
(my tag is like this because I lost a bet, i think the last airbender sucks so much holy crap how was that thing made)
I thought about that too:Scum spoilers:
Did Sparks just out himself?
Stan is already feeling indignant lol.
Stan spoilers:
I think he's double salty in this game because, similar to his role in Steven Universe, the results of his investigations are flavor-based again lol. They are slightly more useful in that there is maybe a possible use case for it if the moons align, but not really lol.
I thought about that too:
Technically only Scum knows for sure that the Vortex Club is Scum's flavor right now, right? I don't know if anyone will pick up on that though.
yup, i'm one of the young'uns around here.Wait a second.
You're 24??? I thought you were like...at least my age.
(my tag is like this because I lost a bet, i think the last airbender sucks so much holy crap how was that thing made)
hahahahahahahahaGenuinely thought you liked it, so the punishment worked I guess.
yup, i'm one of the young'uns around here.
I've been trying to not shitpost in my own game so far, but Bae just tossed me a layup, sooooo lol.The worst part about being just spec. is I keep wanting to comment in the actual thread, but I have to remind myself not to. XD
At least you guys can sometimes shitpost because you are the gamerunners. XDI've been trying to not shitpost in my own game so far, but Bae just tossed me a layup, sooooo lol.
Stay strong, we gotta figure out scum on our own!Man it's really hard not clicking on all these juicey spoilers tags :< But I want to be surprised.
hahahahahahahaha
don't listen to him, he really likes it. :p
What is Crab doing these days? Does anyone have a clue?
You’re welcome <3I've been trying to not shitpost in my own game so far, but Bae just tossed me a layup, sooooo lol.
Yeah.Fake claims are important for scum to have in a role madness game, it's fair for them to have them
Stay strong, we gotta figure out scum on our own!
Also yes, I put the Chloe hair/beanie on Rac's avatar for him lol.
He PM'd me and asked me to do it for him haha. I love that he actually went and played LiS for this game and now he's in there making references to it lol.I was just about to comment on it because i found it super cute. the lines around his head make it seem like he's showing it off and I hope he stays in the game for a while for that reason. XD
