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

mellon_collie · 08-4-2021, 01:21 AM

well, quoting people by manually typing tags and copy/pasting their post from an in cognito window into ur post would be possible. but no

**MixMasterLar** · 08-4-2021, 01:36 AM

If privacy matters that much to you then you need to ne yhe one inconvenience, not the mods pr the people havinh to crosscheck two accounts when they ISO a mod because he undoubtedly forgot to switch accounts again

How would I go about sending a submission for guess? I presume, just DM game host on fiffer?

please submit guesses to me via PM on discord, or on FFR (discord preferred)
you can change your mind as many times as you'd like.

The game is over

the sun fan · 08-5-2021, 01:05 AM

The Mastermind has avoided being guessed. The game is over and the Mastermind was...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, I do want to briefly address the people who are upset with the ending. Your feelings are all valid. I designed this game believing that some people would be unhappy with the ending. What I expected would be that it would motivate people to find the Mastermind. It really didn't, and people mostly didn't try super hard to think of the Mastermind (not generalizing everyone, just what I feel like I saw). I did want to make something memorable, something different, and I changed my original plans for this game, as can be seen by the fact that multiple signup threads became one.

I can understand where you're coming from. I hope that you did enjoy the game before the twist was revealed.

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.

**Shadow_God_10** · 08-5-2021, 01:14 AM

Good fuucking game McKenna... Holy shit

bugkid666 · 08-5-2021, 01:24 AM

at this point i literally don't care what anyone thinks, this is so exciting.

i'm so proud of mcdaddio dude... and i get that it's probably more exciting for me as her long-time friend whereas many of you are meeting her for the first time but... shit. good fucking game mckenna.

sunfan and mcdaddio, don't be discouraged. there will always be people who dislike these setups but i for one had a super good time, and this ending just makes it that much better for me. it wasn't perfect and i think other peep's criticism is good but don't stop experimenting because of it.

**Shadow_God_10** · 08-5-2021, 01:25 AM

Sunfan, I will once again say that I am VERY happy with how this game turned out despite my cabin fever midgame.

This game was meant to be celebrated and played by us idiots and we sure as fuck played it with every intent to win

the sun fan · 08-5-2021, 01:31 AM

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

DaBackpack · 08-5-2021, 12:06 PM

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
