Long Game 110: Termina Abandoned Premise & Pitch: Step into the setting of Termina from Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask for a flipless, time loop based game of social deduction. Across 4 Loops of 3 Days and 3 Nights, Link's Zealots and the Minions of Mischief will compete to obtain the Boss Masks in order to save, or doom, their timeless world. Earn rupees by actively participating in roleplay and discussion to spend on a variety of powerful masks. Start Date & Schedule: If 16 or 20 players sign up before 20:00 EST on Thursday, February 19th, the game will begin at 22:00 EST of the same day. Otherwise sign ups will be extended until the minimum is filled and a new start date will be voted on by players. Turns end at 22:00 EST and start before 24:00 EST depending on factors* Sign Up Write Up: Player Counts & Win Conditions Game Format Rupees and Masks The Happy Mask Salesman Postman’s Services This game does not have traditional PMs. Instead, every Day that has a living player with the Postman’s Hat, players can spend 1-5 Rupees to send 100-500 words to 1-5 other players in the form of letters (100 words per page). These letters are delivered by the GMs at the start of the following Night. Player List Character Submission Example: Ap, Happy Mask Apprentice — a bright-eyed teen from East Clock Town with wind-tossed dark hair, a too-big green cap and tunic, and a tin ocarina in her pocket. She keeps her Grandpa’s shop tidy, knows half the town by the sound of their footsteps, and believes every mask is a feeling you can learn from. Eager, nosy, and brave to a fault, she hero-worships the Hero of Time who stopped the moon from crashing into Termina, practices sword forms with a wooden blade behind the shop, and is determined—especially this Hero’s Carnival—to prove that stories don’t just happen to you; you choose them. (Note: You may choose to play a Terminian, Deku Scrub, Goron, Zora, or Gerudo, which may or may not provide you real or flavorful perks in their relevant domains. I may accept a Monkey, a Garo, and even a Fairy if you ask really nicely. Much like my GM Characters (Salesman + Apprentice + various NPCs) they may be legacy characters or OG descendants with approval, as I may have plans for some) I wonder if anyone will try playing as Tingle II-III o.o Pinch-hit List: Spectator List: Clarifications: Daily/Nightly RP Prompts: @Araris Valerian will be the Impartial Moderator for this game.

Oh Lord Ruler no, never again haha I nominate Ash!

Fun. GG everyone. Amanuensis.

Not I were you protecting Kas? Hm. So hear me out about my B-Team Theory TBB Bee Barron Would be perfect with Braids too. Oh well. Funny thought experiment regardless For now that is all o7

So you tried to redirect me to Kas but still have your Zephyr? For now that is all o7

RIP Kas sorry Raven For now that is all o7

*Resists urge to tinfoil Drake using the NK on TJ and lying about using his Crimson so he can save it for later and double tap win* For now that is all o7

Hm. Okay, maybe I will shoot Hairy or Raven then For now that is all o7

Fair. From my PoV it’s useful to see who wants who dead more than using it as a second exe, but won’t push further if you don’t feel like it For now that’s all o7

I love it when my autocorrect errors are immortalized in quotes smh (even though it’s my fault I only proofread after hitting post) For now that is all o7

“Brevity is the something something of something” or something like that For now that is all o7

Who do you think I should kill tonight friendo For now that is all o7

Okay so I started the game with Crimson. Already told everyone in PMs and now have become convinced we're not all village, so I figured I might as well announce it, since I'm still debating who to shoot and value democratic input. Thoughts? (Rn my order is on TBB, but am open to changing it) For now that is all o7

Nah just a descending order list For now that is all o7

Looks like Aeternum and RoyalBee are next For now that is all o7

*puts away my nitroglycerin* Yes, yes, surely... For now that is all o7

Did you get any results from your Midnight Spores, Aman is having me ask. For now that is all o7

Aman spent our PM on Bee so atm he'd rather I vote elsewhere. Maybe Faerie. For now that is all o7

"It's a very weak read, and I did add the caveat that I don't know how Raven plays when elim. My thought was basically that it seemed unnecessarily combative for an elim, as it's my view that villagers tend more toward "no you're sus" reactions whereas guilty parties appease or de-escalate. Mat is a fairly good example of this phenomena. At least that is what I would say if I was Aman, and not a character simply being roleplayed by him." For now that is all o7

According to Aman, I'm supposed to suggest we throw The Bald Brandon overboard today. For now that is all o7

JNV could PM you then and Aman can PM Bee. Maybe Bee can start a PM outside of the Sunlight Gang to filter information to/through us. For now that is all o7

Sunlight gang four-way-chain? Aman-Kas-JNV-Bee-Aman? For now that is all o7

Amanuensis currently thinks an Aeo exe is a lost cause, both in the sense that it’s probably not a hit and in that he doubts we’ll be able to pivot elsewhere and get a better result. He liked that she’s been playing more in an attempt to improve as a player, but then she self-voted and ruined that, so now he’s indifferent to her self-destructing again / less invested in trying to put his thumb on the scale. Beyond that, he’s mostly eyeballing TJ and Drake atm, though isn’t exactly keen on voting them D1 based on what they’ve produced so far. But if he was in the same position as Aeo where their death seems inevitable, he’d most likely try wiggling out of the exe and go for Crimson to flip Drake with him, since people would want him dead anyway and he believes publicly gunning for Crimson is within e!Drake’s gambit range. Other people are talking but I can’t hear them from back here, so… For now that’s all o7

Aman, the player who’s roleplaying me, forgot about the game lol. He’s tired from work so he is getting ready for bed. Thankfully, he has tomorrow off, so expect us to catch up on the thread and contribute then. For now that is all o7

If I was Aman, which I’m not, just a character being roleplayed by him, I would probably say that it’s a fairly common reflex in mafia across all communities, especially for newer players who’ve yet to establish their signature lines of attack / solving procedures. Was meant to be more informative for anyone that’s not familiar with mafia, such as myself, as I don’t know what that even is, and our new friend Hairy, who for some reason I believe is even less knowledgeable on this subject than me, and that’s saying a lot. Either way, I, or Aman rather, since he’s talking through me, has not yet landed on if he leans V or E for your quick, maybe unhindered, retaliation. As I say that, he does think V is more reasonable, but he doesn’t seem to know what e!You is like, so it technically might be within your range. Whatever that is. For now that is all o7 ((OOC ED1T: So far the now in my post signatures has been autocorrected to Note and Noon. I wonder what the next one will be))
