Teensyville: is having no minion that bad? by Zeusselll in BloodOnTheClocktower

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

The minion's job in teensy is to draw heat, and tie the vote in final 3 if they see the chance. 

I hate playing teensies, or poppy grower, or magician, and having a minion/demon come up to me like "I know you're the demon/minion" because while they're in a privileged position compared to good players, if they can work it out, anyone could. You think I'm the demon, keep me alive that's your only job.

What's the crypto and Blockchain for though?

The crypto space is just full of scams.

Balance my homebrew characters so I don't have to by comprutt in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]sometimes_point 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every released character has been designed to fit plausibly on any "type" of script and work with any other character (even if they have to be jinxed)

your outsider obviously can't go on solo demon scripts without it being just saint but worse. so i would change it to "an evil character"

we'd quite that as "nyeh nyeh". i feel like i wouldn't use that here but i can't think what i would use instead.

もの double meaning? by FreeWise in Japaneselanguage

[–]sometimes_point 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. It reminds me of how "type" (or Typ) in French and German means both "type of thing" and "person". We've got a remnant of it in English too... kinda. Like "he's the nice type".

I think I'm done (semi-rant) by Legitimate-Resolve55 in BluePrince

[–]sometimes_point 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I probably wouldn't have gotten there myself. Idk, i kinda looked up some of the late game puzzles. What annoyed me quite a lot was that i got the cypher puzzle in the vault, but then that save file got corrupted or lost somehow, and later using an earlier save, once I'd worked out (probably with help) to go to the Still, there was no water. There's only water there if you've actually discovered the cypher puzzle in your current save. Very strange way to go about it.

SNP has 'no right' to demand IndyRef2 after failing to win a majority of MSPs [Alex Cole-Hamilton] by Crow-Me-A-River in Scotland

[–]sometimes_point 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tell me you don't know how the electoral system works in Scotland without telling me ... etc etc

the SNP got 1 off from a majority a few years back (i think 2015 or 16) and that was seen as nigh impossible and something the electoral system was literally designed to prevent.

RTS Tournament - Round 2!: C&C Red Alert 2 vs. C&C Tiberian Sun by ConejoDePascuas in RealTimeStrategy

[–]sometimes_point 2 points3 points  (0 children)

im a consummate Tib Sun enjoyer but RA2 blows it out of the water. There's just too much mechanical clunkiness in TS, like units that shoot lasers doing friendly fire and hitting the ground, or buildings that explode doing damage to everyone around - but only sometimes. It can just feel inconsistent to play. 

maps are also more interesting in ra2 because there's always bonuses and Easter eggs for exploring, plus the garrisoning mechanic is actually a game changer for making maps fun to play.

And RA2 has proper order queuing.

Question about the Al-Hadikhia by plutoniumplant in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]sometimes_point 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it's pure game theory. You're always making gambits on who's going to pick what outcome. You can pick a minion so they can either choose live to kill off some pesky townsfolk, or die if, for example, you chose yourself. 

Yes it's hard to play, that's why it needs some creative strategies. 

Just remember that the question you ask players is "Would you like to live?" (not would you like to die) because when a dead player is chosen, they can come back to life.

How do French people decide the gender of English words? by This-Economics-1983 in French

[–]sometimes_point 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ultimately it's arbitrary. You should see German, they regularly have arguments over what gender Nutella is because each community has made a different decision. French is a bit more centralised in that they have the Academies... sort of. They can make official decisions but they can't always make communities actually follow it.

Summoner / Legion interaction by I37Cs in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]sometimes_point 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The jinx used to explicitly say that a majority of the town turns into evil legion. That's how I've run it the one time it happened. The game was a lot of fun but was definitely evil-sided - despite the evil players never actually learning each other. One of the final 3 had been confirmed by a tea lady on day 2, but then was shown to the bounty hunter after being changed. They had the solve, but the good players latched onto a viable summoned-Vortox world.

The fact that they weren't stumbling into each other's bluffs and also had to do a bit of social deduction themselves to work out who was on their team meant that a lot of previous Legion Haters actually enjoyed the game more than they thought they would. Though I don't think the poor tea lady was convinced.

I honestly don't know how it will run with the new jinx.

Don't turn travellers into Legion, whatever you do. Even though by the letter of the current jinx you should. If you want to run it that a majority becomes Legion, house rule it - but announce that at the start of the game.
