I'm trying to erase FRs role out from my head and try to read his insanity without that info to see how I would take it in the thread.

.... idk yet. Still trying. I'm only getting weirded out without actually thinking anything else lol.

For next game:
  • need more hidden roles and ability for random roles to double up. Predators given nowhere to hide.
  • Koala potentially OP, however does still have to kill in the open so can be a one and done.

What else have people noticed? I wish this was going a bit better.
It’s going as well as the early zell games… complete with someone using @Cole playbook to use role claims to eliminate where the enemy could hide. It’s just funny that it was @Zell 17 becsuse we was so pissy about it when it happened

I already told you separately, but I think the wombat should have a downside where if they bring a predator or dingo into their den to protect them, the predator/dingo eats/kills them

Also, institute a post limit per thread. 69 posts to make your point and vote or you don’t get a vote that day. Cross 100 posts and die
I'm sure there's some rabbit that fucks around a lot in aussie land. As long as that thing is alive everyone posting more than 69 times will be caught in a stampede of 69420 rabbits and die.

Independent of this game and shitposting, I've toyed with proposing something like this as a sort of counter in general to the seemingly defacto wolf defense of drowning people.

Ostensibly most players have no idea what's going on because there are hundreds of posts to sift through, and like 10% of them at most are actually related to the game. 👀

Also, the people who post the most are always sus. No one suspected me when I was avenger even though I think I was more sus there

My biggest thought, and this is for all mafia/wolf/Aussie games, is that there are too many roles in general. I’ve mentioned this before to Zell. When everyone has a role, no one can hide.

The only time it worked was Benzine's first bell ringer claim and even that didn't last long Eventually, enough other roles were claimed and proven, so his claim was obviously seen as false. That's why at least 50% need to be vanilla. There is a limited pool and it is known or mostly known depending on which game we’ve played. It becomes easy via process of elimination

All noted, I'm hoping to improve it and hopefully run the game every month to 6 weeks.

I appreciate that everyone has gotten into the spirit so far even if slightly broken. I just hope you're having fun.
I thoroughly enjoyed this game. I liked how a lot of the roles were amalgamations of common roles. Provided a nice change of pace. All I would do is add significantly more repetitions of the useless roles instead of all roles actually appearing

Aye, the ideal is that you have to make it lethal for both (in Zell game terms) Strong Townies and wolves/solos to get revealed. So you have a central battleground of, say, ~6 RRVs that everyone tries to stake a claim to. They can have simple abilities, but should be very narrow in scope, hard to "prove" and outright impossible to reach Word of God standing.

I don't agree at all, I think we just suck and Zell's version is brilliant.
He is basing it on a game with significantly more roles, where you can claim whatever you want and there is no way to prove it because the entire game takes less time than one of @TD ’s shitstorms. We have very few roles, comparatively speaking, and one day phase lasts 24 hours. It doesn’t translate well

Only 1/4 baddies in Vashtina, Local, and Benzine so far from my #feels. Id be okay if I get one more right, but two would be better to up my guess from the last game.

It's perfectly understand why Kelly would go and scratch me, as I've killed him at least once before, but still fuck Kelly for ruining my fool fun before it got started. :annoyed

Beyond that, eat a hotdog.
