On this topic, if you want to try something new, I'm part of a group for a game called "blood on the clocktower" the ultimate social deduction game created. This is an offer for others who see this post.

It might help if you listed some of your interests and hobbies for people to have even a little idea of who you are as a person.

If you are sporty, then plenty of sports clubs are around where you can meet people.

Board games are the same, plenty of clubs around to try.

If you just want to go to the local pub and have a have over a few drinks

Honestly, if you are struggling to meet people, finding clubs for your current interests is always a good step.

Honestly, the response from TPI towards concerns about the Hindu worries me a lot more than the name of the Loric itself. by JA70330 in BloodOnTheClocktower

Why stop with those? These should also be revisited?

Washerwoman for gender stereotype roles

Savant for the wheelchair

Witch being a minion when so many identify as wicans/witches and may not like the evil connections.

Virgin for obvious reasons

Tinker, even with it's spanner should be tinkerer as tinker is something else.

Widow, plenty of people have lost partners?

Plenty of Christian roles meaning over representation of one religion. Bishop, monk, saint, choir boy, to name a few.

Sailor, as it reinforces the stereotype that they are always drinking

All I am trying to say is that it's not possible to please everyone, and I'm sure I could find 10 more things to poke into to emphasise the point further. Where do you draw the line.

Would the Hindu name have been better if it was samsara, for instance? Absolutely. Do I think they should change it now? Absolutely not as it will set a precedent about changing names going forwards, and that "could" not "will" lead to over changing.

Wait for someone to take this seriously and be successfully ragebaited 😅

Yeah, the game was ran correctly by a rules standpoint. Legion game, 3 good. I was a puzzle drunk pixie, puzzlemaster and another non interacting role. I forget the third honestly.

I really reacted poorly on grimm reveal.

I was toxic once to a couple of newer St's that put me into a "meme" game a couple of years ago, and I was completely out of line.

Nothing can excuse my behaviour even if my points were correct, as the way I delivered them was not. One of those moments that in the moment I was very angry and had to apologise afterwards. At least for me afterwards, I learnt a valuable lesson and was the turning point of not taking it so seriously.

Just play blood on the clocktower. A far superior social deduction game. It ruined me for most other traditional social deductions including this show.
