S-FM Pass Into The Iris

[Stealthbomber16]

Setup almost completely hidden.

Each day a new part of the setup is revealed into the game. This could be anything from wincons, role lists, to new rules.

Setup is 10 players.

I'm currently still making the setup itself and when I'm done balancing everything I'll send it to Orpz.

[Slaol]

Copier.

[Toadette]

Copycat!!

[DarknessB]

Given the host, this is an absolutely terrifying prospect. I think there should be a failsafe mechanic whereby Orpz has the ability to modkill the host and take over the game, if needed or if desired by a majority of the players.

I like this new flavor of the month.

Sadly I can't sign for any of them. pretty much Tantalus

[Stealthbomber16]

Haha. Yea, I'm copying concept, but I'm going to probably screw with you more.

If you wanna play any, I can judge one for you. I won't have time to play

How is that possible? Did we all forget Glitch already where days randomly ended and rebegan, votes were magically added, and hosts instalynched players?

P.S. I find it very entertaining to yank your chain, Stealth, mostly because I know you're able to take it with good humor. Sort of like MattZed, lol.

I also volunteer to judge incase you both want to play.

Another cool mechanic in these hidden setups would be to allow a third-party without knowledge of the role list / rules and whom isn't playing to color commentate on the game.

Personally, I'd love to see FM Batman being able to speculate on what's going on in the game thread, as it happens, lol.

[Slaol]

I volunteer to speculate on all games I don't sign for.

I think it would be entertaining as hell, as long as the third party doesn't have any information about the game, and is just guessing as the rest of the players are. Especially in a hidden setup, it's just another element of chaos, and could contribute to lulls in conversation.

[MattZed]

Is public wincons at start too much to ask for?

[Slaol]

Is your god a merciful god?

LOL, pretty sure that half of the fun of a hidden setup is the chaos that ensues in terms of no one knowing how they should be acting -- so I'm guessing Stealth is going to say no.

Think, for example, about your Illuminati game where we didn't know if our goal was to eliminate the Town / Mafia or the Illuminati / Non-Illuminati. Indeterminate goals lead to interesting gameplay -- or at least a lot of laughs from the host as we all run around like chickens with our heads cut off, lol.

[Firebringer]

flavor of the month is crazy unknown setups, eh?

[ika]

funny how we are now migrating to 100% hidden setups when this is really very normal on the other site.

i like the direction we are going in

i can also review setups as needed

[Firebringer]

Honestly its just a fad.
It will get old fast on this site I think.

I mean, other site is fine. But sometimes you really wish you knew what the setup looked like or what kind of setup it was, especially the larger games.

Thats why I prefer the Micro, Open, and Mini Themes there :P

How about Marathon? That's the best IMO.

[Firebringer]

How about Marathon? That's the best IMO.

They only do marathon games like 2 times out of the year.

[DarknessB]

They only do marathon games like 2 times out of the year.

That's because they're not as cool as we are -- we need to steal that idea and incorporate it into our FMs.

Everyone thought Cultists in Mason chat was an insane idea too, but look at how successful it is now!

[Stealthbombomb16]

Are there watermeloanns in the bomb-omb chat?

Are there Masons in the Cult chat?

No Mist. Just Iris.
