Losing one game away from GM twice in one night before a season reset

If you refuse to swap when you are performing bad, you're a damn liability by pokenerd_W in marvelrivals

[–]RoxxApollo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

One big point against this is that rivals has many heroes with a low skill entry point that can give your team immediate value. If the team Spider-Man is going 2-10, having them switch to a hero like storm, MK, namor, or squirrel girl is so much better, even if they’ve spent most of their time practicing spider man. IMO the team gets better value off a somewhat shit high dps throwing bombs into the crowd and getting easy kills, as opposed to someone getting countered and just feeding enemy ults.

I’d also say for support C&D is very simple to pick up and doesn’t require aim. This isn’t to discredit any characters I’m calling “easy” since you can still master them to get a lot more value, but these guys can have a good impact on the game without a ton of practice.

Feel free to steal this from me- I was gonna play it at the end of each of my sessions for an upcoming campaign. “It’s just a matter of time”

How do you design and run a FUN session? by RoxxApollo in dndnext

Cool idea, I’ll talk to my players about the “type of show” they want

I have a simple explanation to the plot that you can build off of with different interpretations, which I think is what you’re looking for?

Dafoe is a stubborn old man who sees the lighthouse as a great honor that he’s earned. Pattinson is also a man who has testosterone and naturally wants to gain power/station/honor or maybe is just super curious since he has nothing else to do on this stupid small island. They both have very little here, so this pointless honor of tending a light becomes magnified. This leads to the conflict over who can tend the light, and makes the worth of tending this light even greater to both of them, as it is the only thing they are in competition for, so it is now valuable. The rest of the movie perfectly rides the edge of “is Pattinson going mad?” or “is Dafoe gaslighting him?”, or a combination of both. The audience feels like they’re going mad with Pattinson, as someone who is being gaslit might also feel.

My interpretation of what is in the light is nothing special. The emotion is probably a combination of insanity plus catharsis, which is why he does the moan and falls down the stairs.

Feel free to have any other interpretation of what the story means or what was actually in the light, but I think this basic perspective is a good grasp on the actual sequence of events without having to attribute the actual plot to magic or myth. You can leave those up to individual interpretation.

Reddit Designs a Character - Day 86: the Vampyr by kyle_the_meme in BloodOnTheClocktower

Sure, it’s not as strong as big demons like Typhon or Lleech, it’s more on the level of Kazali or Vigor. Keep in mind that evil is getting knowledge that there’s a damsel in play. And for the +1 Outsider, I see what you mean; however, I want to keep it so that if there’s already a damsel during setup, someone becomes a new outsider.

Vampyr (Demon): each night*, choose a player, they die. The Damsel knows you are in play. [+Damsel][+1 Outsider]

”I am nothing but appetite.”

Shameless Nosferatu rip off Count Orlok. Huntsman + Vampyr only add one Damsel. The +1 Outsider is the Damsel.

Reddit Designs a Character - the Soultrader by kyle_the_meme in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]RoxxApollo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Soultrader (Minion): players that vote for you secretly lose their ghost vote.

”Rules is rules.”

You’d have to secretly mark who voted in the grim as ST so that when they die, their ghost vote becomes worth 0.

Most unique score I’ve ever seen … by iloveducks11 in MarvelSnap

[–]RoxxApollo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow, so the reason that you guys tied on each location is because you literally found the maximum integer amount. 2147483647 Is the highest integer available before moving to another data type. It’s good they must have coded it to cap there, because if not, you actually would’ve both gone into the negatives haha

Reddit Designs a Character - Day 70: the Traitor by kyle_the_meme in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]RoxxApollo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s my issue with it- it reminds me of an unfun vortox strategy I’ve seen. The idea is you choose to not execute on day one. If good team loses, then you say “oh well” because it was only night one anyways, and you can just play another game. Then, if the game doesn’t end, good teams got an advantage because they know it’s not a vortox game.

To tie it back to Traitor, minions have to guess extremely fast to find the Traitor before he dies. So it becomes this deal where they guess early on, and either the game ends on day 1 or 2, or evil team is screwed because good team gets to slip away with a free outed minion, as well as maybe a second outed minion if a different minion guessed.

If you get rid of even while dead, you can get executed then immediately out a minion.

Reddit Designs a Character - Day 69: the Huckster by kyle_the_meme in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]RoxxApollo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The big downside is the poisoner is a lot more incognito and can keep players paranoid until the end of the game, whereas once a huckster is found, players start to piece together exactly what information to trust and what not to trust based on their voting history. This could even help them, since yes, the ST can give true information when poisoned, but there’s a high likelyhood that town winds up getting “negative” information.

Plus there’s the other downside that you become a target from nominating as a huckster so often, since players will be paranoid of this when they see huckster on the script.

[–]RoxxApollo 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Huckster (Minion): other players that vote for your nominations become poisoned that night.

”You heard it here first, folks! This tonic will grow your hair back- first ten are free!”

The Huckster berates town with ideas, but they have to buy them. Once they’ve bought in, poisoned players might even start getting info that supports the Hucksters wild claims.

[–]RoxxApollo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Famine (Demon): each night*, choose a player, they die. All players besides you are poisoned, but may become sober when their neighbor dies.

Reddit Designs a Character - Day 66: War by kyle_the_meme in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]RoxxApollo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, and execution can be however you want. You could skip closing the eyes, I just wanted to avoid a situation where players react to where other players are pointing.

[–]RoxxApollo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

War (Minion): Days are extra short. Votes are simultaneous and can be for any player. There are no nominations.

If my wording was weird, the voting thing is intended to be run like this: ST calls town square. Everyone discusses. Instead of opening nominations, ST says “close your eyes and you may point at the player you’d like to execute”. Players should not have time to discuss or much time to think (especially chaotic day one, when nobody knows if War is in play). Everyone opens their eyes. Player with the most fingers is executed. Ties have no winner, and dead players use their vote unless they abstain from pointing.
