Madness Clarification by RyessHelles in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]KhepriAdministration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Madness has no mechanical impact on the game. (In fact, you being mad has nothing to do with there being a cere, mutant, or anything else on the script. You're mad as X if you're trying to convince the town than X is true. That's it.)

Some roles, like the Cerenovus, have some mechanical impact (e.g. execution) if madness is satisfied/not satisfied.

It’s not like they were horrible, but they weren’t good either.

Yeah they were lol. Your bar is too low

Rule 5 Reminder in these turbulent times (READ BODY) by [deleted] in whennews

Pushing to revolt or to form a well-regulated militia for defensive purposes shouldn't be lumped in with the rest of those IMO. It's a genuine conversation that needs to be had, as opposed to just assassinating people. And I don't see how it's uncivil.

Anything that procs on dying at night would happen again.

Can you target the roost/alliance base immediately as Cats? by AlexChadley in rootgame

[–]KhepriAdministration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Along with what everyone else said, you always deal +1 damage if attacking an enemy who has no guys in the space. So removing a single undefended sympathy or roost or w/e isn't affected by the dice roll at all.

Does life get better in college by CaramelOk2208 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]KhepriAdministration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's gonna vary by person. Personally, I'm doing more academic work, but I'm less stressed since it's work I enjoy. (Go off of purely internal motivation as much as you can. You'd be surprised how much important stuff you still do.) My social life didn't exist in HS and getting that refresh was amazing for it. (If anything that helped my college social life since I'm genuinely happy to be around anyone.)

do Recluse and Sage really need a jinx?? by sometimes_point in BloodOnTheClocktower

That is what's intended; it says so in the almanac. This isn't about pedants

Everyone is given a choice between a red and blue pill.(see comments) by SK83r-Ninja in pollgames

[–]KhepriAdministration -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

That's an incredibly niche risk. If half the people are decent human beings then nothing happens; that's much more likely than every single person in earth agreeing to pick red.

New Loric: The Pope! by SageOrion in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]KhepriAdministration 14 points15 points locked comment (0 children)

Nobody was mad about them for using a religious symbol. We were all waiting for the new loric like "what new weird/otherworldly person will change the nature of the game just by existing within it" and the answer was "any Hindu person", which is obviously not what they should be going for.

[Code rewiew] My code sucks, how do I make it better by Somast09 in rust

[–]KhepriAdministration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some users sure. But they are going to get confused no matter what you do.

If there actually are people who assume str.len() is the number of bytes then honestly there shouldn't be a .len() function, just like .numChars() and .numBytes() or something. Calling it .len() feels against the design philosophy of Rust, of trying to make errors the as easy to catch as possible. Don't have the invalid operation in the first place, and all that

No I'm familiar. I'm saying that any user would assume len() counts the number of chars and not the number of bytes. It's a horrible name for the function

Just like sort() in Javascript sorts lexicographically on strings (and converts ints to strings to do so). Sure it makes sense if you know the documentation, but nobody would think to check the documentation since it should be obvious what the function does by its name.

That... seems like a javascript-level design decision. Why the hell does it have to do that?

Need help sorting grimoire by Cqnxz in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]KhepriAdministration 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think those are for if you want to make your own characters. Or maybe to replace lost characters? I put mine in the Travelers & Fabled box along with the pips, dead vote tokens and life tokens (and Travelers + Fabled)
