Re: Mindscrew 2.0 Day 3

That's a compliment, and a pretty darn good one.

I was entirely truthful all along.

Alex, did you have any passive abilities?

by Alex Steiner Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:24 am

I am immune to bullets.

Seeing as there are none, and that was pretty apparent Day 2, the only source of bullets was my own ability.

There was also a 5%, if I am being shot, for the killer to be shot instead.

Fluff.

Yeah I thought I had the game in the bag after I got voting Immunity for day 4.... Seems I planned way too far ahead.

Also just out of curiosity did Reverse (Light) Try and night kill anyone if you could. Because I was thinking that the final kill during Day 3 could have possibly been you as Light.

Actually that was my 3rd role, I had intended to wait for Alex to die at 12:01 tuesday, but then things escelated.

by Supreme Overlord Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:31 am

So, are there any big lies that anyone would like to clear the air about?

by If I Could Rewind Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:33 am

Yeah, I'm guessing that Sid needed everyone to vote for him or something like that.
>.>
<.<

My bad, to be honest I was throwing votes around pretty liberally at the end because I thought I'd already won. Then the day kill happened and I was like O.o

by If I Could Rewind Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:36 am

@ Overlord Basically everything I claimed apart from this

seeings as there's basically no way for me to win without my kill which by the way activates on every EVEN numbered night. My win con was that I win when I eat 2 people

And that I have 2 win conditions and abilities

by Sid_The_Kid Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:38 am

my win condition was survivor/jester , i needed everyone to either die or vote for me
obviously i was the ruleset hider
i only had the one ability ( except the gift from AS )
as mentioned in game i targeted who i thought i could get the most information from

by Reverse Simplicity Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:38 am

I made you all read my jargan on day 2 even though I was no longer the frog man.

I had the ability to kill the entire time...

I knew SO couldn't win if I won.

by If I Could Rewind Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:40 am

I knew no secrets Sad

by Supreme Overlord Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:45 am

Rewind, you won. So your other win con was jester?

Dr Who Role PM:

I was so confident upon getting this role. I'd side with the town; I thought the biggest obstacle would be convincing everyone that a likely town-vig was an SK; then we could take out the mafia to victory.

OMG I GIVE UP TAGS TOO DIFFICULT TO CHANGE AFTER YOU MAKE YOUR FIRST MISTAKE -.-

by Darth Skywalkerbacca Mon Apr 15, 2013 5:01 am

yeah I was just a jester that took one less vote to lynch (and I totally told Eggs I could get you to lynch me day 2. Yay for me)

Discord's Role PM:

by Supreme Overlord Mon Apr 15, 2013 2:10 pm

I should have picked up on lack of town when everyone flipped VT; there's no reason to conceal flips unless there’s no town

Was there a theme to how the characters were picked?

A couple of things I liked.
Jekyll/Hyde – juggling win conditions to aim for the correct day. Reminds me of the Mafia-Jester team I proposed a while back; the trick is getting the right one lynched
How SKs could jointly win at endgame; a masonifying ability for alliances would have been interesting

The King of Eggs wrote:I will still do a better write up

I await it eagerly.

Some of those rules are interesting and funny.

Upon reading the rules; I realise I made one major mistake in my assumptions about the game: I assumed that Eggs would equate Mind Screw with complexity, rather than actually putting the effort into making screwy roles and rules (immunities that didn't do anything, VT flips, etc). So good for you.

I like the Angel Player ability; I have often wanted to include such an 'inventor' role in my games, but I've never gotten the chance to do it straight. Alex used it well.

The Role Reversal ability is perfect for Mind Screw; just need to make sure you know how it will interact with each other ability in advance. Pregame the only reason I was concerned about claiming role name is if someone could use my name to mess with my abilities (I didn't fear a Death Note kill because I was properly bulletproof); then Discord's claim made me suspect he could do so, since it's good flavour.

the frog man is hilarious (maybe not that much fun to play ...) and perfectly fits frog from MSM.

Light's Death Note kill is an old standard. Unluckily for that role, it wasn't around Night 1 after a bunch of us had claimed role names, and by Night 2 it was too late.

I think overall the Jekyll/Hyde role was my favourite. Nice complexity in win con, flavourful post restriction, and the abilities ... well, they were fine.
