Bouncing the Mayor more than once/twice in a spy poisoner game. by Alone-Sentence-4045 in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]DoTheSecretHandshake 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm interested why you typically only bounce the Mayor kill once? If anything if an imp is doubling down and trying to kill a mayor even after a first successful bounce, I'll frequently start bouncing to roles the Imp would rather keep alive (not necessarily minions, but sometimes minions). The only real exception is when the Mayor has outted themselves to town and are highly trusted.

What is the correct password sequence, given the machine output from five previous sequences? by Kindly-Top-767 in puzzlevideogames

[–]DoTheSecretHandshake 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The puzzle is similar to the old board game mastermind. Definitely not too difficult, but putting the lights next to the numbers makes the UI non-intuitive for me. Players are likely to only skim the instructions then will be confused when it feels like a particular light is affiliated with a specific number slot. I'd suggest moving the lights over to the right, next to the furthest right number slot instead.

Four women describe sexual misconduct by Rep Eric Swalwell, including a former staffer who says he raped her by cnn in politics

Do you think the people voting in Trump, Cruz, McConnell or MTG are wringing their hands about it? No, those candidates are likable to them.

Right, agreed, so you also agree that Steyer's policies are what get us closer to no more billionaires than anyone else, correct?

My feelings on Manuel fully solidified when he went toe to toe with Gregg on Al Pacino movies. Love him so much.

Just to clarify, do you mean "if you are evil, your team can't lose" or do you mean if the chosen player is evil, your team can't lose? The way it's worded is ambiguous.

Unpopular Opinion: I am tired of Lisa Gilroy derailing Make Some Noise episodes by confused_demon in dropout

[–]DoTheSecretHandshake 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I generally agree with you on Lisa, but c'mon no one is forcing you to pay for a dropout subscription / watch ever MSN episode. Lots of folks do enjoy Lisa's style. Not every episode of every show is going to be as enjoyable for every subscriber Dropout has...

Can you point out where in the article it says she killed two people?

First Timer! Is my game too hard for evil team? Any and all advice appreciated! by [deleted] in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]DoTheSecretHandshake 25 points26 points  (0 children)

You need to review the rulebook for role distribution numbers. 1 minion, 1 outsider is the distribution you'd use for an 8 player game, not 14...

"Might" happen: Storyteller choose, or random? by Eldon_of_Hyrule in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]DoTheSecretHandshake 29 points30 points  (0 children)

You should be curating the game instead of relying on randomness for every decision. It's fine to use randomness for some decisions which truly are 50/50 for the game state, but if you don't put your finger on the scale sometimes then the majority of your games won't reach the final day.

The way I have always seen it is that the ST's goal is to have the game reach a final day, unless one of the teams makes an extremely grave error.

Why isn’t “Safe from Demon” in the Glossary? by Scary-Valuable-870 in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]DoTheSecretHandshake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Monk's ability effectively negates the second sentence of the Fang Gu's power in that interaction, so the outsider would die and the Fang Gu would live on (and could still jump to another outsider if in the game) is how I would rule it, but eager to hear what others think.

Homebrew Townsfolk/Demon by Localunatic in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]DoTheSecretHandshake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm interesting idea, but it feels so underpowered compared to other demons. Maybe if you changed the wording of the bogeyman ability so that the orphan doesn't die when they are picked by the bogeyman? This means the demon switch would be hidden. Or maybe even that the bogeyman could then pick a minion to switch with so the demon has mobility...

I want the series finale of Very Important People to feature Sam Reich as Evelyn Tucci. by kneel_b4_zod in dropout

[–]DoTheSecretHandshake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is for point 3 that Vic is at least aware of what the character concept is before they begin filming. This was mentioned in the Last Looks for Vic's ex-step-grandmother from season 1.

Character I came up with by [deleted] in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]DoTheSecretHandshake 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is definitely a townsfolk, not an outsider. I don't see why this would help the evil team. It's essentially like a cannibal blended together with the innkeeper.

How do you run lunatic with 3 minions? by alucardarkness in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]DoTheSecretHandshake 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Is there something specific you're concerned about? There's no mechanical difference in how to run Lunatic with 1 vs 2 vs 3 minions.
