He is, and it didn't change at all, the kids got balls, I will give him that. He PM'd me to ask permission too, which I thought was nice. He doesn't know that he is the backup cop, so he might regret this later. He doesn't know that? Oh. Well, then that's an even weirder claim. I figured he was trying to save his skin long enough to activate as cop. Roosh is crazy.Yeah all he knows is that he doesn't know everything about his role yet. So...weird.

It is amazing to me that they are all missing the obvious possibility that he is telling the truth about his name but lying about his role.
Doubly so because it was already pointed out that the potential to truly claim a name but falsly claim a role was already pointed out as a major flaw in his original plan.

I also wonder if story is going to be mad when things shake out.

I also wonder if story is going to be mad when things shake out. The Harry Potter mafia game has already been mentioned more than once. He really shouldn't expect it to be that easily broken. A moment's thought shows the gaping hole in the idea that all 9 crew are automatically town.

now he'll "eat a water buffalo"? Yikes.
Mind control, people. Mind control. The whole ruddy series is predicated on brainwashing people.

Not to mention that we explicitly told 'em people had been getting mind-controlled since before the action started.

I tried to hint at it by telling them to pay attention to the opening color, but they came away with "OHNOES a CULT!!!11!" instead. No one has noticed the several times I have said how much I hate cult factions and think that recruits shouldn't be in the game, I suppose.

I'm tending to think of it as a recruit that happened before startgame. Although, Night 1 would've been a perfect time for a recruit in this game (if one existed), since they couldn't kill anyway, so a no-kill Night would have been completely expected.

I can't beleive that there have been so many claims already. Yikes people. Also, shame on everyone who thought that Kat or myself were going to make this game easy! It isn't supposed to be easy! I still thnk that it is playable though, even though we screwed up the role PM thing.

I think so, too.
And now, we get to see who was paying attention during that scene in Serenity.

so, I have a dilemma. I'd like to help storytell develop his bladerunner game. I'm quite sure it'll need help, since his understanding of game design appears to be lagging behind his considerable game playing powers.
But if I do that, it's going to certainly have an influence on the Firefly game, as he's going to understand that I wouldn't give my stamp of approval to a game as easily broken as he thinks it is.
What to do?

Okay, then, to be serious: How much influence do you think it'd have? Just enough for him to realize everything's not as straightforward as he seems to think it is, or enough to give away a great deal of info?

What to do? Well I want to play in the Bladerunner game, so I want it to be a good game. I also don't want to prevent any of us from learning how to put together good games. Maybe we could start a thread where some of the more experianced game designers will help those of us new to game design figure out our own flaws? That way any knowledge you impart to Story would be available to the whole group.

Well, I'm obviously not going to say "Here's what we did in Firefly..." I guess what I tell him is already somewhat common knowledge; if not here, then certainly elsewhere. I'll just be careful. As for doing it in public: that's a good solution for general theory, but doesn't help for designing a specific game, assuming it's at least semi-closed.

Good point.
I would like to see more general theory about how to build a game posted in the forums somewhere though. Teach a man to fish and what not.
Would you mind starting such a thread in the meta game section?
I tried to get something similar going in the "Let's talk about game mechanics" thread, but it didn't seem to take.

Hey Kat, have I mentioned how brilliant your opening color post was?
If not, I am sorry I didn't say something sooner. It was a brilliant way to open the game.

He just figured out other people's roles (so he thought) based on his own PM. I tried to tell him that it was fine, but he insisted.

You know the game breaking bit is what stuck out in my mind, but he did say this in the observation deck forum too

OY! Town is not doing well.
