I even made a great distraction--even in the docs I can see that you were all trying to figure out how to kill me or putting me on your "save for later but ignore for now" lists. I've made the game for you lad, so no matter how much I tried to come up with something that would fit, it always ended up you being the Shinigami playing others for fools. (in the original concept with 12-16 players, I planned to have two Shinigamis, preferably with opposite or conflicting objectives - just like cat5 pointed out, something like the "Judges" from the Hunger Games mafia, directing the game from background but competing with each other) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Town had only three ways of eliminating scum: by killing scum with the notebooks, by arresting scum while they possessed notebooks, and by a single gunshot. There were four Kira suspects and only one died via gunshot. Without the will to use the notebooks to eliminate the other possible threats, town severely lessened their chances of winning. A point I would have argued quite strongly to Nodlied about had I been task force. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure it was frustrating the first few days, but you can see clearly that the game grabbed my full attention when OP47 came into play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VERTi60 Posted March 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Well the only one using the Notebook would be Nodlied (to become Kira suspect and fulfill his own objective to clear Light), but we know Nodlied would never do it. Using the Notebook was tricky but everyone who used it got a special info about others or about themselves, even an ability. In that regards voe was right to explore this possibility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A point I would have argued quite strongly to Nodlied about had I been task force. If I'd been town I'd have been pretty heavily in 'use the notebook for good' camp too. I'll admit, even as a KS I didn't know if the notes could possibly corrupt people, and I'd have paused a bit to evaluate that, but in a team setting I'd have taken one for the team if need be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't going to use it unless I was about to be investigated and was holding the Notebook. My identity being public didn't matter too much (in fact I was fully expecting to be investigated Day 5, but then Nodlied had some other ideas that sounded better), but I wasn't about to be caught with a notebook in hand. Also, I wonder what would've happened had Orange and I directed people to investigate Choppy rather than Nodlied. I think doing that ended up being our achilles heel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VERTi60 Posted March 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Nodlied had a gun that role blocked, while choppies gun could be used as a counter after the target performed an unusual day action.

I think doing that ended up being our achilles heel. We spent too much time derping about if we could fire Chop's gun for him. That said, I did consider writing myself in the notebook for protection (and I see from docs I'm not the only one who had that idea), but in the end decided that since I'd already had a killstreak of like 5 people it was okay to pass the torch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Category 5 Hurricane Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 I'm curious, why allow a player to use accumulated proposal/trust before modifying it by what other players did to it? For example, someone reset my trust to 60. If that took effect before the Debt Note, I'd not been able to target ChopBam. I think something similar would have happened to Jeod when I stole his trust. It didn't really seem like stat-changing abilities really did much since they took effect after, and inflation worked out in such a way that there was always so many more points coming in that starting values rarely mattered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, someone reset my trust to 60. Logic of night action dictates that either you go with "who did what" first, or which action takes precedence. In this case actions first use up the proposal/trust values required for the action and then the other actions take place. So you didn't know yet that your proposal will reset to 60 as that action will be resolved before morning. It's also retrospectively inconvenient to cancel a whole bunch of actions just because of one other action (which isn't even suppose to be a blocker action but a point modifier that is applied before day start and bonus income). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeod Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 I thought of getting one of those myself, but I don't really use notebooks in general. My fiancee, on the other hand, loved the show so much when I showed it to her that she bought some L socks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeP47 Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 I don't really use them either, but it's pretty well constructed for what it is. Verti went to great lengths to try and convince me it was going to be a figure, not a Death Note. This has prompted me to actually clean out some of my old junk a bit so I can put this some place where it looks nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeod Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 Verti you dog! Speaking of figures, Funko POP is releasing death note figures this summer.

I don't particularly care for Enterprise over the other serieses (it's alright) but that was what was on around the brief window I thought about getting things like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're overall too action-y and less in the 'spirit' of Star Trek, so to speak, as a very broad brush. On another hand, while there are things with the new 'look' I like, overall there's a lot of things i don't like about that envisioning of the Enterprise too... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
