Welcome to Art UPickish!

Here is the hub server, joining is required: https://discord.gg/NNAg7XeH8F (spec chat will also be there!)


How Roles Work:

Roles are based around art...but art is subjective! Every cycle you can interpret your art and tell the host (in your private channel) what role you think your art represents, and how you wish to use it. The host will then assign odds to your being successful with that usage, depending on how powerful it is (the stronger it is, the less likely it is to happen). The only limit is your creativity! And luck.

This is a racket, as such it has a base 70 posts/day limit. There may or may not be things that can alter this.

Host Rules:
Spoiler: show
The host rules are: don’t be a dick, no excessive ATE*, don’t angleshoot or quote role PMs and/or host and/or private communication, don't talk to people about the game outside the thread (unless explicitly allowed to by the host and in host designated spaces), no cross game reads, i don't care about reading into subs or modkills (it's explicitly allowed, do so at your own risk), GM will handle everything without consideration for alignment, GM reserves the right to modify remove or add rules as needed.

*defined as: statements that directly say or imply that something in the game is having a negative impact on someone’s out of game relationships or well-being. if you believe the game is having a negative impact on your life and/or your health, please contact myself and one of the Mods on Duty (dunia, le petit poussin, and drwilgy). Please report directly to us rather than using the report post feature, as several people with access to those reports are in this game and I'd prefer to avoid that whole situation.

Voting, phases, and miscellaneous

A standard day phase will be approximately 48 hours long. A standard night phase will be approximately 24 hours long. There may be mechanics that can or will alter this, if there are they will be announced. Adjustments may be made based on my schedule, these will be announced as they come up.

EOD and SOD will both be at 7pm EST.

Voting is plurality by default, with no hammer. If there is a change to how voting works, it will be announced. Ties are determined by the group mafia. If no tiebreaker is submitted within 5-10 minutes of the day ending, the tie will be resolved in mafia’s favor (and/or randomized if the tie is between players of the same alignment).

If the group mafia team is eliminated, any lost mafia that may exist will inherit the factional kill and the tie break. If there are no lost mafia, it may be inherited by a third party, if they exist. There will be an announcement when any faction is completely eliminated from the game.

Unless otherwise stated, only votes made in the poll are considered official. You may call votes in thread if you wish, it is not required for your vote to be counted.

All night actions are due by 5pm EST. All day actions are due by 5pm EST. This is to allow the hosts time to ensure that action resolution is correct. There may or may not be mechanics that alter and/or restrict abilities at Fx. Day actions will not take effect until one hour after the beginning of the day, although they may be presubmitted if desired.

The town wincon is:
You are town, and win when all threats to town have been eliminated.
The town role PM is:
You're town, glgl
Are there town? Hell yeah buddy
Are there mafia? Oh yeah
How many? A good amount
Are there 3p? I dunno lol I'm not much of a partier

I had a liberal arts education and as part of my curriculum I had a semester class called ‘Art in the World’ followed by the aptly named ‘The World Through Art’

So I know all about art in the world and what is doing there

One of my favorite painters is Caravaggio. He's one of the first painters works I saw that I felt spoke to me, on some inarticulable but very real and very visceral level. Which I am aware now is fairly cliche I suppose, but 12 year old me did not care about that and frankly current me only cares enough to note that it doesn't change how his work moves me. His use of light particularly appeals to me, and perhaps the best (and I think probably most well known, maybe?) example is also my second favorite painting of his, Judith Beheading Holofernes. If I remember right the first time I saw a copy of this painting I was 11 or 12 and it was the cover of a book on sale at the Mass MoCA in North Adams, Massachusetts (highly recommend btw), after my parents took us to..I believe a van gogh exhibit, but it mightve been manet? That detail is fuzzy.

One of my favorite host is Nanookthegreatandfearsome. He's one of the first hosts works I saw that I felt spoke to me, on some inarticulable but very real and very visceral level. Which I am aware now is fairly cliche I suppose, but 12 year old me did not care about that and frankly current me only cares enough to note that it doesn't change how his work moves me. His use of auction particularly appeals to me, and perhaps the best (and I think probably most well known, maybe?) example is also my second favorite game of his, Art UPickish. If I remember right the first time I saw a copy of this game I was 11 or 12 and it was the cover of a game at the Syndicate forum mafia website (highly recommend btw), after my parents took us to..I believe a MacDougal exhibit, but it mightve been Dyslexicon? That detail is fuzzy.

MOD COMMENT: Have a good game folks. You can reach out to Dunya, Wilgy or me any time if need be. Image

I've been slowly but surely building a class on Math and Art and Escher is like 35% of the content.

what do you mean building a class? :omg:

Most people do not even know who Escher is so I am like a proud old woman that some youngster knows about Escher. You have made my whole day! :nicenod:

I got an Escher calendar when I was younger and ripped out each month and put them all up in my room as some makeshift exhibit.

I think they’re still there, dunno. Haven’t been back to my childhood house in years (which my mom constantly reminds me)
When I die, I want to go peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather;
not screaming like the people in his car

Howdy. My favorite painter is Cezanne, favorite sculptor is Calder, favorite mixed media friend is Anson Kiefer. I have a lot of art opinions.

I bet y’all can guess which art I contributed to the auction even though I don’t know most of you

Once upon a time, I was going to be an art history major. And then I realized I didn’t like the history part lol
