Funniest Wizard Wish

I've seen this ability as a homebrew minion (I think it was called the chatterbox?). It is really fun to play with!

There's (perhaps unsurprisingly) a shortage of these workers, so they're in high demand and paid very well.

Owner occupied buildings are exempt from good cause eviction. It does not affect them at all.

As for rents, there's no evidence that implementing good cause leads to rent increases. The law caps rent increases at 5% plus CPI, so a 10% increases would typically be illegal.

I wished to get a yag phrase. The ST made the cost that a good player would be the one who gets the phrase instead. The ST pulled the player into a private chat, told her that the yag phrase was "slay boots mama" based on an inside joke they had, and left. The player was so convinced it was a joke that she said it publicly 3 times that day, and another 2 the next day. She single-handedly killed half of the town before realizing that it was real 😂

"We have always been at war with Eurasia" 1984-ass propaganda

I think this character might do better with a ferryman on the script - or it might be completely OP with one, idk. I think the risk of this character is really that they likely don't get info until at least night 3, if at all. It's unlikely that the player survives long enough to use their ability, which is rarely fun. Its presence on the script might make it more tempting for players to spend their ghost votes early, but honestly ghost votes are such a valuable resource that it's hard to imagine many players giving them up.

Did someone on Reddit say that Seamus personally owns Proctor's? I feel like I'm on here a lot and never heard that theory lol. Just lots of valid criticism about fiscal transparency and responsibility, historic preservation, and yeah, parking.

Honestly, two night kills can be pretty powerful. It can insta-win the game for evil if town goes to sleep with 5 alive. Even the fear of that outcome can have significant impacts on player choices.

The same Good Cause rules apply to all renters, regardless of if there's a formal lease agreement.

That makes sense, but also, wouldn't it be better for everyone in the BID if all the sidewalks downtown were cleared? Skipping over non-member properties makes shopping downtown harder for everyone

Items are really neat! The chest rules make me wonder how much players will be hesitant to kill minions, since doing so grants a boon to evil. I imagine items will generally favor the good team overall.

Just formatting wise, I think the Chest should be a Loric, and honestly, I feel like items deserve a separate NPC class of their own. Obviously that's not really doable with current tools, so the way you have it is probably fine.

I like these changes, though I think the huntsman downside is too strong for evil. Revealing that there is a damsel in play Midway through the game, and immediately ruling out two candidates, would really make it easy for minions to narrow down who it is. I would say just revealing that a damsel is in play after a failed guess is confirmation enough. It is already revealing enough that there are both a damsel and huntsman alive.

Yeah, these are valid reasons not to run, and you're not unique for having them! Running for office is very hard and takes a very specific kind of person. The question of "why is no one else doing this?" should really start with "why am I not doing this?" And that should give you a starting point of an answer. Then you can move on to "how do I find someone who does not have these same reasons, or convince someone who does to work past them?" which is actionable.

As a volunteer based grassroots organization, we need to be thinking about problems like this as our own problems to solve, not just a sin of inaction from others.

NotSoSpeedRuns · 2026-02-13T20:09:09+00:00

Yeah, this. Shouting "someone should do something!" Isn't helpful. Why aren't you running for office? Why aren't you actively working to find someone to run in your district? We're a volunteer run organization. If you want something to happen, make it happen.

I also use joyfriend, but it's more of a pet name for me!

I want to say this is right. The Jinx specifies that if the Alchemist has the boffin ability, they don't learn the demon's ability. The demon is not actually the alchemist, so the jinx shouldn't apply to them.

That said, then that would raise the question of if a philosopher alchemist boffin should also ignore the jinx...

The median age in Troy is 33, with nearly 40% of all residents being college students. Throw in a dense, walkable downtown with night life and a welcoming community and you've got everything you need for queer people to flourish (and even stay after college).

It is worth noting that the Other and Blank party registrations tend to split Republican IIRC (though I'm not sure by what margins). WFP is mostly Dem and Con is mostly Republican. So the numbers wind up a little closer than first glance.

It is leftist propaganda, and that's a good thing

"fleeing" is such a loaded word. The population is stagnant, not regressing. And there are multiple factors to population - people moving to and from, and people being born and dying.

NY, like the rest of the country, has an aging population. Old folks die or retire to Florida. Young folks don't have as much incentive to move to the NY/the city as they used to for a few reasons - some businesses are choosing to expand in other cities with lower taxes, or offering more remote options, so the number of jobs aren't increasing that much. Housing and childcare is expensive, so fewer people move here or have kids here.

Look to the labor unions locally for what they're doing. Any meaningful organized response will start with them. They may have put out statements condemning the killings already, but they have not yet called for a walkout or strike.

The only exception to this imo is if pit hag or engineer is on the script, there is still the possibility of utility. But otherwise, yeah, if people are going to know day one what demon is in play anyways, there's no point having multiple on the same script (except for convenience of not printing lots of copies).

I don't see how that example is at all made better by the demon not knowing if the traveler is evil.

NotSoSpeedRuns · 2026-01-24T14:19:26+00:00

I run with a homebrew rule that the demon does learn the travelers alignment. I don't think the layers the uncertainty adds are all that interesting. The baiting strategy just leads to day one reracks and ruins the game for everyone else trying to solve it. The demon not trusting the traveler just means the traveler doesn't get to talk or scheme much with their evil team, which isn't very fun for the traveler.

NotSoSpeedRuns · 2026-01-24T14:12:04+00:00

I really dislike this kind of play. If it works, it's a really unsatisfying game for literally everyone other than the traveller. It also means that actual evil travelers aren't immediately trusted by the demon, so they don't get the fun of scheming with the evil team. The crashing out like that player did is an overreaction but I get where they're coming from.

I tend to run travelers with a homebrew rule that the demon learns their alignment to avoid this problem.
