The General Chit Chat Thread 3

[Krudda]

A very foolish move, might I add.

[Tiffanys]

...if by interesting you mean populace victory practically assured with a killer dying on day 1 then sure, interesting.

It was like that the last 3 games, wasn't it?

Except in the seventh round I revived seventy.

It was only like that on round 7. No other game had it happen that fast.

You are now just knowing the power of the random dice god, IT DOES NOT CARE ABOUT LOGIC ONLY CHAOS!

[Chiyachan]

I noticed people posting here about the murder game. Since we're ALL the good guys. Woo for population victory by day 3!
Also, just a bit of food for thought.
1) An active person may have a role but do fuck all for ages to make it look like it's one of the inactives.
2) The game host may simply say he's waiting for somebody when he isn't, to spice up the game.

Relying on such information is silly silly, right?

[Tiffanys]

To be honest, I didn't care whether the information was right or not. It only needs to sound right. The entire point was just to gain trust so I would look considerably less suspicious (what kind of idiot killer tries their damndest to get another killer lynched?). There was never a 66% chance for it being a killer, it was 50/50 that it'd either be the other killer or the detective and I wanted the detective dead. I was hoping it was just the detective, too. I was confident enough that I could manipulate the game as long as the OP detective didn't screw with me.

...day 0, dies to detective. FML... lol

I had big big plans. Posts, pm's, scapegoats, days planned in advance. Oh well...

That's good though. It pointed out a critical flaw with my games. There shouldn't be any protectors and there should be more killers.

The entire concept probably needs to be revamped. I understand how the game works and there may be one or two others that do, but the vast majority of people who join the games have no freakin' clue. Hardly anyone plays it as intended and expects clues in the news and solid evidence. I just don't know how you could consistently give clues without making it too easy though.

[Krudda]

Hopefully this is the final time I need to do this. Should be, I think I took care of everything except the macroblocking last time, so this should fix what's needed.

Thanks go out to cold_hell for pointing out a few things to me I was (yet again) ignorant of.

[JoonasTo]

Got to love this. The number one rant among people regardless of the game.
If the game allows it, it's a right way to play.

Perhaps it wasn't designed right from the start, hmmm?

[buchno]

If you count that the killers were pushed back a day, round 6 as well.

But yeah, perhaps the rules should be changed. Would no clues in the news and no detective make it too hard for the populace?

As of early Friday in Korea, officials were saying:

— 14 bodies had been recovered.

— 179 people had been rescued.

— 282 people were still missing.

This is quite worrisome. The Malaysia Airlines missing flight hasn't been found either.

Translation: hurr durr I'm stupid

To answer your question: No, just because it's allowed doesn't mean it's the right way. That's like someone claiming someone dribbling with their face being the right way to play basketball because the game allows it! The way people play murder game is just as moronic.

[Tatsujin]

Wtf, I'm still hungry. 2 bananas and a red apple is not enough? This is madness!

Hmm I do feel like there should be some protector of sorts, though in the current version of the game(2 serial killers and 1 detective) it seems to be a bit hard for the serial killers to win. Another thing is that our stigma from the previous games carries over(for example you attacking me right off the bat, since you considered me a threat based off previous games). Maybe the mods could make an "anonymous" board and assign us random numbers instead of our usernames. Although the mods are probably too lazy. Alternatively we could make a forum that is just open during the game, and we could all use a different username. That along with a game revamp would make things very interesting.

[Tiffanys]

Yeah, I was thinking about it... only a passive protector is acceptable, like the doctor/nurse thing that just protects against a killer but can't actually kill them, or someone that can call someone in somewhere publicly for protection but can't actually kill a killer.

I've thought about the forum thing but it wouldn't really help out BBT if it was just recruited here then held somewhere else.

I'm thinking about another round after Krudda's is finished. It'll be very different than all previous games though.

They could make temporary user accounts for every player, so we could continue playing in the regular thread without knowing who's who. The narrator should probably know, to prevent cheating by making new accounts with similar names.

[JoonasTo]

Of course it is. If the rules allow it, it's the right way to play. It may not be the most efficient way though.

Yeah that could work, but the mods are teh lazee so I dunno if it will happen. I wouldn't mind hosting a separate forum for it though, we could still discuss some parts in the thread on bakabt(except the main game discussions and voting), and besides it would be less spam for the mods to go through.

[Tiffanys]

On the plus side, if it wasn't on BBT it could probably have nudity and more mature topics, depending on the host.

[Sebur]

Fuck yeah

[shabutie]

After playing it (Werewolf) in real life with a group of friends, the forum version just doesn't do it justice.

And knowing that we killed a killer makes it less fun   (Keep that shit in the dark till the end yo!  Raise the Paranoia that more baddies may be out there)

[gits]

Please no more murder game in this thread :S
