Welcome to Spyfall 15! In this game, there is a spy amongst your ranks, and your goal is to figure out who it is! Or, if you’re the spy then it’s your goal to figure out just where everyone is at.
This is a game that works by asking and answering questions. A player will be randomly selected to begin with asking a question, and they’ll @ another player and ask their question. That player will then answer the question the best they can without giving away the location, and they in turn will ask a different player another question. This trend will continue until either: A player decides to bring the thread to a vote on who they believe the spy is, or the Spy decides to guess on the location.
If the thread is brought to a vote, it must be a unanimous vote of AYE (minus the vote of the accused being voted against) for the accused player to be revealed. If any player (minus the accused) votes NAY, the game will continue. If the Spy decides to guess the location, the game will end whether or not it was a correct guess (they'll just lose if they guess incorrectly).
All players will get a PM with their character, location, and a bit about themselves to help them get into character and make the spy’s job harder (or easier if they catch on). The game will begin now. If you have any questions, please send me a PM and I'll clear up anything you're unsure of.
@Wintermoot you get the first question!
-
Of course I do!
@UMF, how are you feeling about where we're at right now?

Of course I do!
@UMF, how are you feeling about where we're at right now?
I felt kinda excited.
@Dawsinian What's that noise I kept hearing?

Paging @Dawsinian, come in Dawsinian.
-
Of course I do!
@UMF, how are you feeling about where we're at right now?
I felt kinda excited.
@Dawsinian What's that noise I kept hearing?
Must be the the locals.
@Red Mones, you have a big breakfast?
-
Yes! My daddy had the biggest breakfast made for me!
@Laurentus, why did you they let you in with those dirty clothes?!
-

@Laurentus, why did you they let you in with those dirty clothes?!
Don't tell me what to do! I go wherever the fuck I want, got that, pardna? And right now, that means stealing your sweets, fatty.
@Anubhav Ghosh (http://www.wintreath.com/index.php?part=profile&id=2986), what do you most want to see here?
-
Everything looks better than my place
@TGN What's that hat you got for ?
-
I just like to wear them, my hats are soft.
@Anthony (XXURBANXX), what did you just do?
-
I tripped on a vase, who leaves a vase out in the open like this?
@Dawsinian that's a nice jacket you got there. Where'd you get it from?
-
Paging @Dawsinian, you've been once again summoned to the field.
-
Alright, @Anthony (XXURBANXX) pick someone else. Preferably someone who hasn't answered a question yet.
-
@Anthony (XXURBANXX)
For the ping.
-
Alright, @Anthony (XXURBANXX) pick someone else. Preferably someone who hasn't answered a question yet.
Sorry for taking so long, but who hasn't been questioned?
-
Both Imaginative Kane and Wintermoot haven't been asked yet.
-
@UMF What's that, in your pocket?
-
@UMF What's that, in your pocket?
A piece of cheese I just got
@Wintermoot How much is that jacket?
-
The one I came in with? I don't know, I didn't buy it! Maybe my mom would know...I have more important things to focus on!
@Imaginative Kane, what do you think you'll even get out of being here?
-
I will definitely get amusement from the looks of awe, confusion, and excitement from adults, children, and others participating in this tour. Ooh, gotta run off, those new test results aren't going to analyze themselves.
@Anubhav Ghosh What do you think of my assistants?
-
Feels like they are plotting to overthrow you
@Laurentus Do you have the same persistent itch that many are having?
-
@UMF What's that, in your pocket?

@Wintermoot How much is that jacket?
I accuse UMF to be a spy. He has asked a similar question that Anthony asked Dawsinian(I forgot multiquote mechanics) on page 1. The fact that UMF copied a question seems that he has lesser info, hence trying to be cautious and hideous.
-
@Anubhav Ghosh has accused @UMF of being the spy...so it's time for a vote. Say AYE if you agree, or NAY if you disagree with this accusation.
Remember, it must be a unanimous vote from everyone except the accused (UMF in this case).

@Anubhav Ghosh

-
Hmmm, I see your point, but they're also a new player (I think), so I'm gonna say Nay. We're only 2 pages in, we've got time. I will keep them in mind though.
-
And with that the game continues, with the question from Anubhav Ghosh to Laurentus.
@Laurentus (http://www.wintreath.com/index.php?part=profile&id=1146) Do you have the same persistent itch that many are having?
-
Paging @Laurentus
-
Feels like they are plotting to overthrow you
@Laurentus Do you have the same persistent itch that many are having?
Cowboys don't get itches. Y'all been eating too damn much candy, if y'all ask me.
@UMF, what do you think of the owner of this joint?
-

@UMF, what do you think of the owner of this joint?
I can't be sure, but I heard the owner is a little too creative
@TGN When do you arrive here?
-
Paging @TGN
-
I arrived half asleep. I’m been very tired recently.
@Imaginative Kane why are you over there?
-
Maybe I should get some sleep but first I must show you this invention of mine in the corner.
@Laurentus Would you mind removing the cat and mouse from the facility?
-

@Laurentus Would you mind removing the cat and mouse from the facility?
You can get one of your guards to do it, bucko, you're the owner of this join, after all.
@Wintermoot, what do you hope to get from this?
-
I accuse TGN of being the spy.
-
Laurentus has accused TGN of being the spy. You know what that means? Time for a vote! Same schtick as last time, it must be a unanimous vote of AYE from everyone except TGN for it to go through.
@TGN
@Wintermoot
@Laurentus
@UMF
@Red Mones
@Anthony (XXURBANXX)
@Anubhav Ghosh
@Dawsinian
@Imaginative Kane
-
Aye
-
I can't be sure that TGN is the spy, and due to the fact that he only had been questioned twice (according to my count) and lack of proof, so I'll vote NAY
-
And the game resumes.
@Wintermoot (http://www.wintreath.com/index.php?part=profile&id=1), what do you hope to get from this?
-
Aye.
-
The voting is currently over since we had a Nay vote.
We're just waiting on @Wintermoot to answer the current question.
-
@Wintermoot, what do you hope to get from this?
Hope? I know I'm going to win! I always win. :D
@Dawsinian, how did you feel about coming here?
-

@TGN why have you been tired recently?
-
Well I do what some would call “parkour”
I’m quite the jumper
@Anubhav Ghosh (http://www.wintreath.com/index.php?part=profile&id=2986) what’s outside the window?
-
All I see these days are Christmas decorations. Let's uphold the holiday spirit!
@UMF Why are you running around the houses screaming 'Trick or treats' ?
-

That's not me. I think you saw my doppelganger.
@Red Mones Is this your money? I saw it on the floor just now.
-
Paging @Red Mones
-
Alright, it's been about 4 days. @UMF, ask someone else a question.
-
@Imaginative Kane How do you get that scar?
-
Which scar? If you mean the one on my elbow, I got that from someone who was trying to sabotage my products in the process of stopping them. All these bite mark like scars are from people who do not understand the difference between free samples, edible samples, and products they need to pay for. Especially children and babies.
I am going to accuse Anubhav Ghosh of being the spy, their answers feel too generic.

Anubhav Ghosh has been accused by Imaginative Kane, so it's time for a vote! Remember, it must be a unanimous vote of AYE for it to pass from everyone except the accused (Anubhav in this case). If there's even one Nay vote, the voting will end and the game will continue.
-
AYE
-
Aye

Aye

Just waiting on votes from @Wintermoot @Anthony (XXURBANXX) and @Imaginative Kane
-
Aye

Aye
-
oops, sorry guys. Nay!
-
Oof
-
And the game continues. @Imaginative Kane, it's your turn to ask someone a question.
-
Is this another of those games where almost everyone is a spy?
-
Like, legit, the only person I'm sure on here is Red Mones.
-

No?

Sadly no, this is a basic game with only 1 spy.

As TGN said, you need to ask someone a question.
-
@UMF what is that you're eating?
-
@UMF what is that you're eating?
A dish called nasi lemak. Famous in my country. Want some?
@Wintermoot If you own this place, what would you do?
-
Alright, I'm going to step in for a moment, having re-read through the thread again and seeing something mildly alarming going on.
While I'm not going to reveal the spy or anything like that, I am going to ask that players who aren't the spy to please stop giving answers that aren't related to the source material that you've been given. I've been seeing a fair few answers that have absolutely nothing to do with the material you've been given, and the goal is to be as authentic to the material while also keeping answers vague so that the Spy doesn't figure things out. You guys have the source in your PMs as well as bits about your roles, so use that. If it has nothing to do with the source material or your character, please stop throwing it in because it becomes an unnecessary and somewhat unfair hurdle for the spy when you're going off script. You're not giving the spy a fair chance when you're giving answers that have absolutely nothing to do with the location or your character in that location.
I'm not going to say who's doing it, you know who you are, and if you need help with the source material, reach out to me and I can point you correctly.
That's all, thank you.
-
If I owned this place, I would make it the best! Cause that's me, the best. :)
@Anthony (XXURBANXX), why do you believe Anubhav Ghosh is not the spy when every other player voted yes?
-

@Anthony (XXURBANXX), why do you believe Anubhav Ghosh is not the spy when every other player voted yes?
Simple. Lack of reason, it seemed like a random callout. I want to be sure he's the spy before i vote aye.
@TGN Nice Winter Coat! Where'd you get it from?
-
Down town, rather nice fur coat.
@Laurentus look around, where do you think we are?
I accuse @Anthony (XXURBANXX) as spy. I think they voted nay to look good and tk draw suspicion off themself
-
TGN has accused Anthony of being the spy, which means it's time for another voting round! As always, remember it must be unanimous barring the vote of the accused (in this case, Anthony).

Will Anthony get voted off? Will someone vote nay and we go to another round? Will Chanku ever come back from being launched into space? Tune in after this vote count to find out!

Alright, this is a bit unorthodox, but I'm going to skip UMF's vote. They haven't been on any of the Wintreath properties (the discord, here, the NS page) for 8 days and counting now, so I'm not going to wait around and assume they're going to be back on in a super timely fashion (especially when the game has been going on for over a month).
So with that being said, the votes are unanimous, and so @Anthony (XXURBANXX) is voted off.
And Anthony was...the spy! Yes, congratulations, Anthony was our spy in disguise! If I had to guess, he was probably Slugworth trying to steal some more top secret recipes!
Our location, though some of the answers made it pretty rough to pick up on it, was Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory via the Tom and Jerry and Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory cartoon movie. (If "Chocolate Factory" or "Willy Wonka/Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" had been guessed, I would have accepted those as well).
Everyone's roles were:
@Imaginative Kane: Willy Wonka
@Anubhav Ghosh: Charlie Bucket
@Laurentus: Mike Teevee
@Dawsinian: Augustus Gloop
@Wintermoot: Violet Beauregard
@Red Mones: Veruca Solt
@TGN: Tom Cat
@UMF: Jerry Mouse
Pros: Some of the answers were great. Laurentus leaning into the western loving trait of Mike Teevee and some of Kane's answers were pretty on point.
Cons: I think there was some confusion on the source material, as well as what was allowed versus not in answers. UMF for example completely threw me off with his Doppleganger and favorite dish answers, since they made no sense for both the character or source material. But that may be a confusion more towards how the game works, which is totally understandable when it's your first game.
The Clever: TGN also threw me off a bit in his coat answer, though in hindsight his answer was actually very clever since Tom in that movie was an alleycat that Charlie sacrificed giving a loaf of bread to (both to Tom and Jerry), so that downtown answer actually made complete sense.
Overall, it definitely went in ways that I could tell there was some theme struggling, so going forward there may have to be some tweaks in future games in this type to stress not going off script so that we're staying in theme/location/character for an all around fair game.
What are your thoughts?
-
Aye
4 years of devotion to you and this is the thanks i get? :p
-
Time for werewolf :)
-
Yeah I agree there was some confusion with the source material, but overall it was fun. Thanks for hosting! :D
-
Nice to see that I was partially correct in my suspicions of who the spy was (I suspected both Anthony and Anubhav). I have to wonder about that final question that Moot asked though since that doesn't seem right for Spyfall. I was kind of making up my answers since it has been years since I last watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (the remake, never cared to watch the original) but other people appeared to understand the source material enough to give good answers (such as Red). Not a bad game of Spyfall.
-
I definitely recommend the original. It's definitely dated as far as the time period goes, but it definitely captured the spirit of the characters a bit better, even if it really adapted parts of the book (then again, the Depp version did too, just different parts).
Plus, Gene Wilder just really did a good job as Wonka, even if Depp had more of the zany personality down (though the weirdness of parents thing was a really odd addition).
I still like both for differing reasons, though.
-
This was a great game, however more importantly, I learnt how to actually play spyfall, and also, I got insights into Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, since I never saw the film and managed to read only a small excerpt back in sixth grade
