Me this round. Yes, the best strategy is to go with what you think any given Czar will find funniest (imo).Hedgeowl wrote:Host- is there a Card czar selected Day 0 or will that be you this round? In future rounds when we do know the Card Czar's identity we are trying to select what they would think funny yes?

I remember they used to call them "cool points." If you did something awkward or stupid, they'd say, "Gimmie 10 cool points, bro."
Ah, the 90s.

That's right, the show where everything's made up and the point's don't matter.

And i have not done 3 games at once in a looooong time, so I will try to wrap my head around this one in the AM when i am fresh and caffeinated. I have never played this game, and even without that boo games are intensely complex
The fact that you immediately jump to suspicions is pretty suspicious to me. Also you post in blue. I don't trust the color blue. It's a very devious color.kneel4justice wrote:Well, this is the one thing that has caught my attention right now.S~V~S wrote:I switch back and forth all the time due to this, in one game they were posting in freaking yellow, lol.

Its just something about the way you kind of make an excuse, I am not saying it is unreasonable to wait until the morning but the fact that you add how you have not done 3 games in a long time pings me. I just don't know if that's necessary, or if it is more of a way to say: "don't expect too much out of me".
So would you prefer I just keep quiet then?insertnamehere wrote:The fact that you immediately jump to suspicions is pretty suspicious to me. Also you post in blue. I don't trust the color blue.

Our lovely host's screenname is somewhere around 66.6% vowels.DharmaHelper wrote:Blue. B-L-U-E 4 letters but two vowels what the fuck.
What kind of fucked up satanic twisted psycho bitch word has 50% vowels. That's demonic shit right there and I does NOT fucks with no demons.

Yes, let's all just keep quiet, shall we?

I just mark the whole thing with the cursor so background turns blue and I can then read it.thellama73 wrote:Well, since I'm not reading any of the host posts, this should be interesting.Hedgeowl wrote:I just realized the downside of this format is that we can't all sit around a table having boo read the instructions to us, while some pay attention, some zone out when they get it, others just figure it out as the games starts, and the rest never quite figure it all out, but still manage to win somehow.Epignosis wrote:I'm still on chapter 17 of the instructions.
How do you feel about the word syzygy, DH?That's just how they play where he plays, they come out of the gate swinging at trivia, stuff we would call mud slinging. As for the blue, it was jarring for me at first too as it is supposed to be reserved for non player posts, but meh. The players use personsl colors where they play, and perhaps people felt rude pointing out that here color posting is only used in game related ways. I figure so long as it is not green or red I am good.insertnamehere wrote:The fact that you immediately jump to suspicions is pretty suspicious to me. Also you post in blue.

Is that why everyone seems to care so much whether I read the host posts? I guess I should be flattered thta you don't want my ignorance to result in my death. 
I can't handle these nut cases alone

And K4J, have you read the mechanics, the roles, the rules? Hella complex, eh? Boos games always are and one needs to read and understand them well, because in boo games, ignorance is death. Personally I would prefer to read them when I am under the influence of 8 hours of sleep and a nice cuppa coffee than the influence of a glass of wine and cottage pie, Lol. And three games IS hard to manage, ask anyone who has done it.
Linki~ that word is beautiful
Not a problem, Mp would have said something (or told me to say something, lol) if it was. It is the non player colr, and you run the risk of having posts not read by people who don't know you.

I did not know that blue was anything, I thought only orange/red/green were things. If it is trouble for anyone that I am posting in this color, then I will certainly stop. Just let me know, okay?
Anyways, the game does look complex, I wasn't arguing with that statement or the fact that 3 games is a lot. It seems you're missing my point. My point was that it was coming across more of an excuse to me. Although, I feel a little better knowing it was about the set-up, as I at first took it as just getting into the game in general.
I didn't really mean for you to answer my question. You were just asking for it, but thanks for the explanationS~V~S wrote:It's a metaphorical explanation of how the Card Czar role in particular works, and how the game in general works, an explanation of how this game works irl for those who have never played it. Like me. It explains the basic way it works, and how it may transition into an online Mafia style version
At least thats how I read it.
