At least, I'm pretty sure it can't be turned off. I may have to chat with the admins to double check.

someone tried to disable it at one point and it didn't work, so yeah

This game has convinced me to make non-bastard games for the rest of my life, I think.
I might just not have it in me.

I dont thiml the fact the game was bastaedized was the problem. Based on the signup post, it sounded like the game was going to be "slightly" bastard, but otherwise play normally. I think the original game would've fit that slightly bastatdized catagory without being too bastard, a fairly normal twg game with a cool twist. But the second the mastermind was shown, it immeadiately became full bastard and i dont think thats what people were expecting, and it went past the limits for some exoecting a "normal" twg game with a few bastard mechanics.

I dont think the game was bad either. I love games like this and its these kinds of games that keep me interested in twg, but if thevexpectation going in was something more crazy, i dont thunk the criticism would've been quite as harsh.

Not every good idea pans out, don't be too hard on yourself.

For what it's worth I did get some enjoyment out of it, and knowing in hindsight that wolves would target themselves because they knew Game 2 was the important one makes me not feel so bad about wagonomics being mostly wrong.

Anyway, back to my cave.

Re: ymotohciD :daerhT emaG 002 GWT

I think the criticism of the game is valid.
I'm glad people enjoyed themselves, but I do think I should've left the mastermind out, maybe barred new players from playing in general.

The split game idea would've been maybe more worth pursuing; I didn't want to change back once I had gone ahead mentally with the single-game.

I think there maybe was a bit too much going on with the setup

the two-game idea with the second one playing in reverse was really cool; the idea of a knowitall was really cool; the idea of having a neighbor was really cool; but all of these in the same game, along with the "true mastermind" idea, made everything pretty complicated to figure out.

most players ended up not having any agency over the game at all, which understandably made them upset. centering a game around a single player is a very hard thing to make satisfying for everybody, and the realization that everything was a farce certainly didn't help. I would most likely be in this boat if Freezin didn't end up leaking me this info in advance.

so yeah--- there were a lot of good ideas here individually, but there felt like a lack of cohesion because there was so much going on that didn't really "need" to be there and ended up being distracting

Re: ymotohciD :daerhT emaG 002 GWT

I was personally expecting to be disillusioned with the game after it ended, but honestly the reveal that mcdaddio was the mastermind, and that every single other player LOST the game, was so out-of-left-field and ??? that it wrapped around and became awesome.

in hindsight, any other reveal would have probably pissed me off. but GG Nancy Drew, you deserve this

Re: ymotohciD :daerhT emaG 002 GWT

I waited a day to post my overall thoughts:




sunfan: This game was beautiful. You evolved TWG, and I think that's being overlooked sadly. You ventured into new game territory and while there are some bugs, I would argue it was a very big success. The obvious has been stated already, but there are a few ways you could balance it, i'm sure you already have a bunch in mind. I think you should continue bastard games like this, success only comes after multiple failures. (Look at Cybernaut, I still have no idea what im doing but im evolving each time)



Considering how Tforce and I controlled most of the votes, we played to our original wincon so I consider that a win for both of us.


Mcdaddio: Well played, very well played. I would have guessed you on perhaps the 20th guess.

TWG has been a big part of my life over the past 10 years, and I'm really glad to have met such a weird quirky community of people who I consider myself the closest with. This was a great milestone game to see how we all have grown over that time. Sure, some can argue the best times were years ago when we all were new to this game, however I think this is a great end of a chapter, and the start of a new one. Reading over everyones favorite moments of TWG, and see'n how many people have referenced me over the years is one of the most humbling and nicest compliments I have received in this lifetime, so thank you. I'm really glad to have gotten to know all of you <3

I forgot to fill out the survey, but I was thinking about what I would have written for my favorite TWG moments and almost all of them were about you lmao.

Your 1-shot fireman claim was one of the funniest things to ever happen in a game, as was the "RIP storn d0" video. My favorite though is probably in the C9++ game where you rolled SK and it was F3 with you, me, and I think jrodd? And you forced me to draw a picture of my Marimo avatar in MS Paint and then used it as your avatar just to fuck with me. That was so good.

Honorable mention to the Lost Wolf game, where Jrodd and I didn't realize that Manti was our wolf partner and faked a red seer on him and he just.........
