This is a modification of a previous game I ran a year or so back on a different forum.

Current Player List:


1. Dp101
2. Bsmith
3. GeneralHankerchief
4. Montmorency
5. Choxorn
6. Atheotes
7. Arakhor
8. Snerk
9. Al Sipclar
10. Visor
11. Csargo
12. Winston Hughes
13. Kcaz
14. Sooh
15. Renata
16. Lewwyn




The theme for this game is high fantasy, and not set in any existing realms.

This is a closed setup game.

There are no bastard elements.

Game setup can handle basically any number of players, as it is very flexible.

It will be balanced as best as I can once I see the numbers involved.

Game will start on February the 4th. Start time to be announced. I would like input on people's time zones so I can figure out a time that works best for as many people as possible.



Basic setup outline is that all players have access to a spell book that is quasi-randomly assigned to character #'s, and then those numbers are assigned true random style to the various players. Players then pick a set number of points worth of spells(read single use roles) with various costs based on the utility of the spell.

Game then proceeds as normal. The game is structured in such a way as to make it impossible to use meta to break it open. I won't say don't go there, because I know you will, but just be forewarned.

In of course.

Montmorency
01-23-2017, 10:26
Ok.

Private comms? :beam:

Jabbz
01-23-2017, 16:55
As a general rule, my games always have a private channel for scum to converse. I'm also not opposed to open night comms in the thread, though if there is a solid reason you guys have that as a standard, I'm ok with no general comms at night as well.

BSmith
01-23-2017, 22:41
In. I think Monty is asking if players can use PMs/other means to talk privately out of thread.

Jabbz
01-23-2017, 22:46
Oh, no. All comms will be either through the main thread, assigned QT, or PM by/to the mod.

GeneralHankerchief
01-24-2017, 02:31
Let's do it.

Jabbz
01-24-2017, 03:02
Monty, was that you wanting to join?

Montmorency
01-24-2017, 06:26
Yes.

Jabbz
01-24-2017, 07:21
Yay, I'm up to 4. This doesn't seem to be taking off well lol. I promise I'm a good GM, been doing it for 9 years in person and over the net ;P Oh and I write quality prose too :P

Visor

Suggest tagging everyone who played recent games

Renata
01-24-2017, 17:16
I'd like to but am really hesitant to join this as I'm in two games right now with another one starting on Monday.

For now, not in.

Jabbz
01-24-2017, 18:07
Ahh, good idea thanks Visor. Now how exactly do I do that? :P

Jabbz
01-24-2017, 18:36
Ok, I just stole this list from Pizza's game start post, so sorry if I double up on people.

I've been in precisely no games here, but I have been known to run and play one or two over at CFC.

I don't doubt your hosting skill, but I'm in a similar situation as Renata in that I'm committed to a game that starts the 30th and will take up a lot of my time.

Jabbz
01-24-2017, 23:29
I was just joking guys, no worries.
Arakhor, Fresh mea... err I mean new players are always welcome.

Choxorn

Incinerator.

atheotes
01-25-2017, 08:12
I will play.

Jabbz, i did not receive any notification. Not sure why. Just letting you know in case it was not done correctly and other may not have received it too

Jabbz
01-25-2017, 09:21
That means I screwed it up. Hmm. I copy pasted from ATPG's post, so maybe it wasn't what I thought it was. I couldn't find an actual button command for it. If someone could share that would rock.

Or is this is atheotes? Trying the Mention link

Jabbz
01-25-2017, 09:23
Ok, that looks like it.

Sorry, still trying to get used to your board format :p

Dp101

I think you missed Arakhor's signup. At least, I think that was a signup.

Renata
01-25-2017, 18:50
If this gets delayed a bit I will play. I'm down to just one game currently (still have a very involving one starting Monday, but I can probably fake participation here during breaks). The longest my current game can possibly last is through the 31st, even if the weekend phase gets extended, and there's no guarantee I'll live long in the other.

Jabbz
01-25-2017, 19:45
Honestly it looks like this one might get delayed so that might be the case. A small game for the board I usually play on is 12, so that's about as small as I'm willing to go. I'd love to host one the size of ATPG's or bigger though, as I think some of the mechanics I've got going would be more interesting there. Well see I suppose.

Arakhor
01-25-2017, 22:21

It was, yes. I think I can manage one game here at the very least. ~:)

Snerk
01-25-2017, 22:51
And snerk too I guess.

Al Sipsclar
01-26-2017, 03:19
I'll play.

I'll give you a hand I suppose

I'll play.

Monstrdude
01-26-2017, 17:47
Still too soon for me to play as well also if I in right now I'll rand wolf and I don't want that so if it starts in like, two weeks instead I might be able to in as long as someone takes this wolf slot away from me

Monstrdude
01-26-2017, 17:47
Slot 12 = Mafia

Adjust your reads accordingly

Jabbz
01-26-2017, 18:49
Would anyone be out if I pushed the game back to Feb 1 in an attempt to gather more players? What about Feb 4 (next Friday)? Also, are there any players that would be able to play that currently aren't? I would probably be able to make this work with 11-12, but I think it would be more enjoyable for all with more players.

Winston Hughes
01-26-2017, 19:08
Also, are there any players that would be able to play that currently aren't?

:yes:

Zack
01-26-2017, 22:58
that would be groovy

what are phase lengths looking like?

Dp101
01-27-2017, 03:39
I'm not Jabbz, but the standard where we're from is 48/24, and I'm assuming that that is what he would be going with here.

Jabbz
01-27-2017, 10:16
Yeah, 48/24 is my standard setup. I do typically allow conversation both day and night for both public and private channels as well.

Foopme
01-27-2017, 11:21
I can maybe play after feb. 4th

Zack

~:wave:

Jabbz
01-27-2017, 22:13
Ok, it doesn't sound like anyone CANT play if we change it to the 4th. Changing it to that unless I get a massive backlash. Updating front page, adding confusedzack and Winston and Foopme as a maybe.

Sooh
01-27-2017, 22:35
I'll play, but similar to last time I can't promise a whirlwind of activity.

Renata
01-29-2017, 03:08
OK with a start of the 4th I am in.

Lewwyn
01-29-2017, 05:26
Hi folks, its been awhile.

Lynch on Lewwyn confirmed. Target locked.

Considering this is TW and the Meta involved on this forum, you suddenly leave me with few options based on your actions once the game starts.

Visor
02-02-2017, 08:45
Heh, finally. good to see ya back

So I still haven't heard from atheotes or Choxorn at all. Is there anyone(s) that are interested in stepping in to fill their positions? PM me to let me know please, or if you can, get a hold of them :P

Renata
02-04-2017, 23:22
I can give a shoutout on our QT.

Renata
02-04-2017, 23:23
Never mind, Zack already did.

Choxorn
02-04-2017, 23:40
Were you expecting something back from me?

Choxorn
02-04-2017, 23:41
Oh mb, didn't realize I hadn't posted in the thread in a while and the PM's you sent out didn't have any read receipts or "tell me if you got this" or anything

Sorry, I thought I'd already made it clear that I was still here!

Choxorn
02-04-2017, 23:44
Oh, I see now, I didn't realize the game thread had been posted yet and I wasn't really clear on how the spell selection worked. Sorry about that! :sweatdrop: I'll get to you shortly.

atheotes
02-05-2017, 02:34
oops...sorry Jabbz. Will get back shortly
thanks for the pm Zack.
