mctsts: The Thing | Solo Power - Unknown Team Basics: This role hasn’t been worked out correctly yet. Major changes will come in the near future. Details: As The Thing hasn't been worked out yet, any attempt to use an action on it will fail. For immediate actions, that player will be prompted to select a different target. Additionally, any attempt to lynch or elect The Thing will fail. Each night, The Thing may [unknown] a player, informing they have been [unknown]. Any attempt to use an ability, lynch or elect the player in that night, or the following day will fail similiary to how they would fail with The Thing. The Thing wins when everyone is part of the unknown team, dead or [unknown]. As The Thing hasn't been worked out yet, we also cannot consider it in the win conditions of other teams. For example, if a team has to kill or apply an effect to all other players they can win even if The Thing remains alive/un-effected. In this case, The Thing will live lose.

phantomtomic: 🤨

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: the thing is currently just a minor inconvenience

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: Is it?

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: yeah

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: especially in a big game

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: it does nothing

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: just seems kinda threatening

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: it can protetc players likely to die

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: put a limit on its unknown usage

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: and it can safely sort of ally with other teams

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: 1 per night

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: yeah

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: so its only a minor inconvenience, it can ally with you

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: It can do 1 per night rn, but could be scalable

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: yeah but The Thing can switch sides

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: if the wolves are losing ally with the wolves

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: if town is losing ally with town

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: its a weird unaligned solo situation

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: yeah its an UA role

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: I can change it so its UA and instead of winning it ascends and changes the role of everyone to despot and then kills them

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: 🙂

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: seems a bit overkill

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: give it a permanent disguise

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: only way for UA to steal the win

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: so any ua ingame can actually be the thing

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: but only the player who gets the role knows that

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: wdym?

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: so the role list can say • Angel x1 but it can actually be The Thing

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: Is this for a real role or for temporary category

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: real role <:gibagul:841358597983961128>

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: only the player who get The Thing knows theres no angel

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: a bit like how claimspace works

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: nah

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: It'd give it a unique UA ability

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: the role list lying is a bad mechanic

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: especially because new players couldnt know about it

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: put the thing in every ua category search

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: bad

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: no no bad in fact

[CrowdfordBot]

venomousbirds: <:slimeball:1162861175231479890>

[CrowdfordBot]

e_thsn: Wouldn't the thing be an extra role since it applies in addition to your current role?

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: this version wouldnt

[CrowdfordBot]

e_thsn: Ah

[CrowdfordBot]

shapechange: my favourite part of the thing was when the thing said "it's thinging time!" and thinged all over the place

[CrowdfordBot]

captainluffy: thats my favourite thing it does

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: postponed

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: I dont plan to continue working on this role for now

[CrowdfordBot]

mctsts: closing it
