What has being a mod got to do with bringing a thread I started to get feedback, back on track??

Thanks for the feedback Robyn.

Less of the sniping at each other folks. Please and thank you.

Feedback:

Loved the role of Q, but it might need tweaking. Not sure how. Maybe not a game winning role, but a power shift role? Like they get to decide which team they want to win on their lynch and they get a parting message to the roled players of the team they want? I don't know how to explain my head.

Otherwise, fab game. Enjoyed immensely. I started a new job two weeks ago and I was incredibly busy, but the game made me want to make time to play. I haven't seen any of my friends in weeks. I have unread PMs here and unread emails (& I hate unread notifications), which I have ignored since the new job. Yet I made time to play. So it was a great game

That interesting so Q can cause all the trouble they want messing around on thread. Then on his/her death pick a side they want to be on for the win (village or wolf) and do some damage to the other side like reveal a role or pick a player to join the other team. Something like that??

That'd be cool

Edit: actually if the character was given some powers like blocking other powers or making players silent. He could be a real nuisance

Yeah, like q learns something when he/she dies and gets to choose what team to tell, or gets to choose which team loses their special powers (like if they choose the wolves to lose, any extra powers they have like converting/peeking/being immune to seer/needing two votes for lynching) are gone, and same for village - lose any good power. Would need a balance in some way but q could cause chaos.

Q/Jester: This caused major problems. There was too much "we can't hit Q, what if we hit Q" going on, which unbalanced the villagers more than my untimely demise. Announcing the death of the jester freed the village to get on with it.

Don't get me wrong, Sully played the part beautifully, but there needs to be tweaks to the jester gameplay.

(Just to keep it with the ST theme of the game, and Pter will understand - I would have called the lynching of Q immediately, especially early game. Q lynched, click fingers, back to farpoint station, "I told you humans were savages. I win!" and let the remaining players decide if they want to go on a simple village/wolf game for runner up or not)

Aside from that, it was a well managed game, and it was interesting to see how not to play it *cough*village*cough*

That could also be just down to the fact that it was the first time a role like that was played, so there was a lot more focus on it. In future games, the villagers might just do what I advised from the beginning (I wasn't the only one) and ignore the Q character and get on with a wolves v villagers game.

Oooh I really like that spin on q- lunching removes any special powers from team he wants to lose. I also like Robyn's asking players if they want to play on suggestion.

sullivlo

I think q as a game breaker rather than game ending would be great. Could even have him as a drunk so nobody knows of his existence until the mods decide

What did everyone think of the Worf role? That was the other role we customised for this game.

sKeith

re: worf role. I assume drumpot got to know before using it that he needed two candidates within one hour. I like that mechanism, it keeps him from using it too early, needs to have good read on two players, not just one.

Baggly

Yep he was told

robyntmorton

I liked the Worf role. He had a lot of power, but with that came a lot of pressure, in terms of waiting long enough to get two names, not waiting so long that you're killed, and even getting the order of the two names right, as Drum kinda did in game.

The one hour rule may have seemed a bit tight, but it was a berserker killing spree, not a calculated vig hit, so it fit the role.

Lord TSC

I wasn't too fond of the Worf role :P

Digital Solitude

I liked Worf, the role was like a Vig with better odds

sKeith

one level up from a berzerker could be a rampager.
The rampager character can go on a rampage, also with short time intervals from 1st attempt, unlimited, until he hits a goodie, and dies with that goodie. if no choice is made in the time window the rampager takes his/her own life.

Hey Lads/Ladies my account is now an admin, QB had a quick look there to see if she could fix things but said it looks like a deeper problem. I'm not sure whats going on but if someone wants a craic at it PM and I'll shoot you my password.

quickbeam

Though on a postive (for me anyway!) I'm now getting to read the backrooms under Mick's login! Just can't sort out anyone else's, including my own. Currently reading what my boys were up to after I was killed

Baggly

Can you make anyone else an admin by changing their usergroup? That's how molly changed everyone else, so maybe start there?

Baggly

Or pm on login to me and I'll give it a shot

No - can't see any options for changing anyone. Will forward on a PM presently.

While we have access to the admin cp, part of it has been removed from the permissions (users and groups, forums) so it doesn't appear in the main menu, and I can't get into it by clicking on a users hyperlink on the admin cp front page.

So In effect we can't change user permissions or add new fora as things stand.

I don't know if max restored partial access or there is another issue, but we don't have a full admin account yet, to my eyes.

robyntmorton

When I looked at the forum team a few minutes ago, Max was the only admin listed. Maybe there are still some admin permissions not set from his end?

Whew! So, I wasn't just being a dope in not finding the right place to make the fix??? :P
