    I’ll sign up as a spectator for now. If I die in the LG before this game starts, I’ll switch to a player though.

    If we are going to do the probability protection plan, I think we should go for the 1/5 odds. I don't want to waste too much chalk in trying to defend the camp. And with the randomness involved, there's not as much worry about needing to overprotect to avoid elim roleblocks. We'd just need everyone to buy in completely.

    I think that, in theory, this idea of each player using the 1/4 chance to decide whether or not to protect is a good idea, but has a few flaws. First, it requires everyone to buy in. Second, it requires convincing players that they should do something they might not want to. Third, probability doesn't exactly work that way. Yes, over thousands and thousands of iterations, the most common number for defense we'd get would be around 4-5, but there's a lot more variance introduced in this small of a population, with only experiment occurring. I'd much rather organize the protection (though not in thread) than rely on the Gods of Luck and Chance. (Sorry Alv )

    I mean, I wasn't suggesting that we coordinate who goes after the books in thread. I was just saying that I was going after one.

    This is the question we should all be asking ourselves. Who are you, who are so wise in the way of SE?
  6. StrikerEZ
    I mean, that would be unfortunate, but that's just life.

    I mean...you're the only one who said anything (besides maybe Alv I guess), and you're the only one who voted on me...I don't think it was very hard for me to pick you out. PMs are only foolish if you limit the information you give out to one player. You have to tell at least two players what's going on. Preferably not the same information either. With two people, your odds of not telling just an elim go up. Now obviously you don't go telling a bunch of people either because then you may as well tell the thread anyway. But letting the information go around the PM webs is a good way to coordinate things. And if something goes wrong, we start figuring out where it went wrong.

    I mean, I don't blame you for purposefully voting. I'm just saying I think the purpose behind your vote was a nefarious one. I never said that I wanted us to coordinate this in thread. Doing so would be a foolish move on our parts. I'm not sure I like the image you're trying to paint of what I've been saying. You've got quite the narrative you're building here. (And if I really did say something that sounds like I wanted us to coordinate who's protecting the camp in thread, I am sorry for the confusion)

    SpiderEZ has decide to hoard books now. Anyone wanting a book should file a claim, citing Article 13, section B, lines 23-45. In other news, @Matrim's Dice, Matrim's Dice. I personally find it odd that you would paint a target on my back purposefully. Plus I disagree about the defenses thing. If we overdefend (and I'm only recommending overdefending by a little bit each night, maybe one or two people), then that gives us a bit of leeway if an elim gets lucky and roleblocks someone. Seems like it would benefit an elim to have us not overdefend. Just do some careful digging, persuade people away from overdefending, take out a couple key people, and we get overrun. All of this makes me very suspicious of you.

    Okay, off to a great start, went to spend time with my girlfriend and come back to see we’ve gained a whole page+ in about 3.5 hours. Good. Anyway, I think we can afford to overprotect the camp right now. Later we will need to allocate our resources very efficiently, but for now: if you can, you should protect the camp. Most players should have chalk to start off with, so if like...2-3 decide to protect tonight, we should be good. Maybe even four to be safe. Though I don’t think we should be claiming in thread. Way too easy for the elims to counteract that. Speaking of the elims, there’s 23 total right? 21, ignoring the thief and the non-rithmatist. So, I’m betting there’s 5 elims. A little less than a quarter of the amount of players in the game. Anyway, I’ll be going for one of the books, so if everyone could just not do that as well, that’d be greatly appreciated!

    Is it bad for me to double post right now? I don't want to edit this into a two day old post. Anyway, my LG66 rerun will probably be happening before my Breath of the Wild LG. In addition, my Anonymous Blackout Mistborn MR will probably be my second solo spot on the MR list and my first solo spot on the list will be just a pretty basic Mistborn game.

    It'll be okay, Kas, it'll be okay. The pain is only temporary.
  13. StrikerEZ
    @TJ Shade I dare you to steal the hearts of the elim targets each cycle if you're an elim.
  14. StrikerEZ
    Thank you I feel particularly proud of that pun. This sounds like a perfect version of the events of this game. I'm completely down.
  15. StrikerEZ
    I'll probably do it. Now, what to call this new version of me.... SpiderEZ
  16. StrikerEZ
    I for one welcome the chaos of the modern PM trends. Bring it on folks. Maybe it's time Striker goes full PM Spider.

    I think a mechanic similar to the Krell from his Skyward game would actually work really well for that. The caveat of this being that I have no idea what this story is though.
  18. StrikerEZ
    Frederick Kerr, son of Alfred and Denise Kerr, Rithmatist of Dakote, younger brother of Duncan Kerr, sat around the dwindling campfire of their small camp, worried about how he had got here. He had followed his older brother, despite his own fears, to the frontlines. It was a miracle of the Master himself that he had survived as long as he did. He wasn't a particularly good Rithmatist, but times had been hard lately. Duncan had sent odd letters back home, telling of a fierce battles with the wild chalklings on the frontlines, of betrayal and intrigue and plots. It had frightened Frederick, but if Duncan could handle all of this, then Frederick could. And he would be there for his older brother. ~ I'm really looking forward to playing this game, and RPing with @Kasimir!

    I just realized that the signups sheet says I don’t have a pass for my LoZ LG...but I’m using my pass.

    So, I just came up with a cool Stormlight game based on similar mechanics to the KKC games. So I'm signing up for another LG slot.
  21. StrikerEZ
    Oh that sounds like a lot of fun. Maybe try to run it during the summer? Please?
  22. StrikerEZ
    Is this the LG I offered to co-GM with you? If so, I will take the fall and not play it so that others may play. and so that I don’t absolutely break it. :P

    So, one thing I think should happen is definitely some sort of way to bring up issues like the Dingo situation to the mods. Whether that’s just a google form you can fill out, or some sort other sort of official way of filing a grievance, there needs to be some sort of system for letting the mods know about these kinds of things. And there needs to be a formal system of what happens when a player breaks a rule. Some sort of warning, punishment, then banning system for repeated infractions. Having a bunch of rules is all fine and great, but it doesn’t help much if they’re not really enforced beyond just warning players to stop. A few warnings for minor infractions and one warning for major infractions. Then if they still need another warning or two for minor infractions, then they get blocked from playing games for a little bit. Or if they do a second major infraction. And if they hit a third major infraction or some designated number of minor ones, then they are banned from the games. Having meta discussions like this is all well and good, but again: if we aren’t really enforcing consequences for breaking the rules, why have the rules in the first place? I hope this made sense.

    Welcome to SE! I'm pretty sure you're a new player, so hello! If you're not new, I'm sorry.
  25. StrikerEZ
    I mean, if you wanted to see an example of how not to do it, just go look at MR23.
