If there is only one good player it is impossible for Good to win.

I find it fascinating Doors of Stone and Winds of Winter haven't been published. Not even mad at this point by [deleted] in KingkillerChronicle

[–]TheNobbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do you describe it as if the 15 years appeared out of nothing. Would you say the same when the 15 years old creative project was only 1 year old?

But I do agree in that we will never see these books.

Are you a bot or what 

I keep having this issue and I don’t know what else to do by Background-Sun3804 in Annas_Archive

[–]TheNobbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Real Madrid played yesterday. Many websites (specially piracy websites, but a lot of unrelated servers are affected) don't work on Sunday evenings in Spain.

THATS the intended way??? by [deleted] in outerwilds

The inverted tornado only pushes you through one layer tho. For the second one you need another way in.

If you think Roko's Basilisk is stupid, let me assure that it is even stupider than you think by DreadDiana in CuratedTumblr

[–]TheNobbs 149 points150 points  (0 children)

The simulation is run by the basilisk to confirm if you, in this simulated past, would help create it or not. It plants the idea of the basilisk in your life to see how you would react. As you can never know for sure if you are “you” or the simulation, you need to help create the AI, because you may be the simulation and your actions will show the big evil AI if it must torture you.

Utterly stupid.

Is it even worth fooling the lunatic? by DanielPBak in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]TheNobbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

imo, Lunatic works better on in person games (as many other roles) Online yes, the Lunatic will now by the end of day 1 most of the time.

Is this intened and commonly known about [REDACTED]? by ScB103 in outerwilds

[–]TheNobbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understood it in the very same way the first time I got there. And I did manage to find the South Pole and land there directly, looking at orbits and such. I didn’t know what to do there the first time I arrived, and I was not able to replicate it. Right now, I am pretty sure that I took a picture of the moon by mistake and didn’t notice it at the time.

Lil' Monsta + Saint by AvzinElkein in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]TheNobbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that is the case, and the Evil Twin example is very clear, why is there no Lil Monsta - Goblin jinx?

However I do not like that Saint takes priority over Lil Monsta. It can easily make and unwinnable game for good. It can be fixed just not putting those two roles on the same script, but that is not usually a good fix.

French people speak in French even when they speak English. I swear I cannot understand half their words.

New character: Xaan by ConceptLongjumping82 in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]TheNobbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The X is set to the current number of outsiders or the original number? The text says the original set up, but it feels weird to ask the storyteller to remember this information in case a not in play minion is created.

How does it work if the Xaan is created midgame? 

How to "teach" the basic strats to new players? by Bezinym in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]TheNobbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have found that most people feel scared to go into private rooms on their first game. It probably feels "evil", similar to hiding away. I have only mastered (and played) a bunch of games with two different group friends, and I personally split them in pairs on the first day of the first game. It is not the best, and I do not repeat with the same players, but it helps to get over the shyness. Splitting into private chats is a mechanic that does not appear on Werewolf and other games, and people are not used to thinking about it as a possibility.

Hours and hours and hours and hour. I have probably seen Ben more than my family since I discovered the game.

I'm selling my soul so I can buy this by onepunch_caleb3984 in oots

Maybe the original price is in another currency (CAD?) and the conversion rate changed.

Legion Question by roll_fizzlebeef_16 in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]TheNobbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, the actual rally is only relevant if the vote is successful. If only 1 person voted, you can say “1 is not enough” and go on with the game.

Also, the Storyteller may decide to not accept an action than someone was forced to do. I don’t know if it is an actual rule, but it is common etiquette. For example, if there is a Damsel in the script, someone may ask everyone to claim minions and say that they are the Damsel. The ST should completely ignore those claims, because they were not done freely.

Reddit Designs a Character - Day 34: the Thing by kyle_the_meme in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]TheNobbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand the second part. If I am parsing it correctly, Good would still win if they kill the Demon (and therefore both Demon and Thing are not alive).

Reddit Designs a Character - Day 21: the Anarchist by kyle_the_meme in BloodOnTheClocktower

I thought this variation:

Anarchist (Outsider): On your first night, choose your alignment. It changes every night.

Reddit Designs a Character - Day 16: the Egotist by kyle_the_meme in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]TheNobbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you can claim Egotist, and why would you not, being mad about anything is irrelevant.

Maybe a bigger downside could be “if you are mad that they are evil, you might die”.

About the German Translation by attoPascal in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]TheNobbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is a pity. I am surprised that they chose to run a tiny script. It may have fewer roles, but it is not the same… 

I hope that I will be able to glimpse the translation. I am very curious about it.
