Re: New TWG Rules Proposal & Discussion

A section with common abbreviations would be cool. I still don't know some. (Wifom, iso, etc like you did with knife in the box)

I'll be doing this eventually

Re: New TWG Rules Proposal & Discussion

i've done it lol

I really only ever see myself doing that if a person's reason is "I don't want to be wolf/town/role" but I do suppose that this falls under mod discretion

Re: New TWG Rules Proposal & Discussion

i think here, the onus is on the host for this.

I will be finding the bit i had written up about keeping track of a points system to deter afk=ing through a game at some point later

are you suggesting hosts start refusing a player's request to replace out?

Re: New TWG Rules Proposal & Discussion

yea sorry to hear that zenith

see imo the reason for replacements should be serious stuff, not just you dont wanna play anymore. it's unfortunate that the system is abused in the past that it leads to people speculating "oh so and so replaced out, which they would only do as a wolf". some people come to mind that fit that criteria and i have those thoughts too, but it shouldn't be allowed.

Re: New TWG Rules Proposal & Discussion

It's still comical to see you guys thought anger was the main driving point on that replacement-- my cousin overdosed and died on heroine-- which didn't help an already unstable Zenith at that time.

Now see, there was no hint or mention of this. This is literally the first I've heard of this news.

Sorry to hear, bro.

Re: New TWG Rules Proposal & Discussion

True, but from the perspective of the person who's taking the time and effort to replace in, this would leave them in a pretty sucky position ex: AA in that game.

it kind of comes with the territory.
replacements are a kind of necessary evil, and replacing into a game p much sucks. In this particular instance, AA salvaged it about as best as he could've, and I don't think he died because of the fact that he replaced in or anything, but its kind of hard not to get a read based on someone replacing out

holy ballsacs zenith!

Re: New TWG Rules Proposal & Discussion

I think he did that due to the actions Zenith did in one game where he was a wolf, I was hounding him, and he replaced out in anger which caused me to form an entirely different opinion that I couldn't share due to it being still illegal.

Also Rule 2 should specify clearly that in a mystery setup it is okay to reveal your role PM (not word-for-word, but the idea of what you are capable of) because it has happened in the past and if someone were announcing what type of role they have they shouldn't be modkilled/banned for it, specifically in a mystery game. In a normal setup, yeah, don't mention it unless you are claiming.

Re: New TWG Rules Proposal & Discussion

I kind of disagree with 10d, I think it either needs to be legal or illegal (preferably illegal) instead of "ok but frowned upon."

Other than that looks pretty straightforward.

if it has to be one or the other, which is kind of is, but if I was to get rid of the "frowned upon," I'd simply make it legal rather than illegal, because a person is going to have thoughts on the action of replacing out, and its really, really dumb for a person not to comment on their thoughts for a pretty silly reason imo, even though I was the one pushing for it to be illegal before
