What's the worst that could happen?

The famous last words from many horror movies.

confirming I got the role PM here cuz I have no idea where I'm supposed to

I would've replied to the PM instead of blurting to everyone that I got a role. Some things are better left secret.

afik everyone received role pm, I don't see why me confirming that I have one is of any relevance

Vote: Aragonn
Really don't like your attitude trying to throw shade

I see in the OP where everyone got a PM with abilities, but I don't see anything that says everyone has a role. Sure, you could say that a regular core is a role, but when I'm talking about roles I'm talking about the special roles like seer, defender, and wolf. Absolutely nothing says everyone got one of those. Hence why I said secrecy is prudent.

I'm not throwing shade. But if that's how you wish to perceive it, you're free to do so.

At the very least, I believe Ruguo has said on Discord that everyone is a named Portal character, and that they have roles prepped for everyone.

That said, the OP does say that some people's central roles may just be as simple as "villager", but everyone does still have that central character role and also have up to three rotating status effects depending on the Button status. Based on these and other comments by Ruguo on Discord, I think it is fair to assume that everyone received a role PM.

You assume I've been watching and reading the Discord chat. Unless someone shares details of the goings on of the Discord chat, like you just did, I very likely will have no idea something happened there.

this is just poor semantics at this point
Even if I am vanilla I'd call it role pm because that's how I am used to

I'm not assuming anything; this wasn't intended as an attack on you or anything. Am just hoping to provide some clarification based on known facts here.

Dang that is a lot of posts in just a couple of hours though I am not surprised about that.  I would rather not push the button just yet so I will hold off on that for now.

I've read the OP about 3 times now, and I'm still not sure.

I think a lot of us are in that boat.

@Ruguo just out of curiosity, does a successful vote to push the button apply the effects in the current phase or does that not happen until the next phase?

A vote for yourself counts as a vote for “No Lynch”.

Oh thank god. I need to steal this rule.

Btw, is there an easy way to multi-quote and/or only quote small sections of a post?


The mechanics of this game are interesting and there's a lot going on so probably fairly confusing. Which is going to be hell trying to juggle crazy mechanics and not knowing most of y'all's meta.


It seems there's not currently a status in effect? I'm down for pushing the button and seeing what happens. This mechanic seems similar to a planeswalking mechanic that occured in a MtG game a few of us here played in. And in that game, the effects of the plane had potential for outting scum if played right, so maybe we'll get some info like that from status effects in this game.


Vote: Push the Button

Bad Minish! No push button push button bad I DO NOT NEED MORE COMPLICATIONS I'm still working my way through figuring out my role PM and I still havent finished the OP and I need you to be town so you'd better be town cause I dont want to trust this to anyone else

Hey, I've already read my PM and the OP and understand it about the best I'm going to right now without actually getting to the mechanics of the game.

We have 72 hours this first day. Pushing the button early allows us more time to figure out just how effects work and discuss them. I don't wanna wait til eod or d2 to do it when we have even less time.

Push the button.

Aside from that I'm just gonna Vote: Barnes because I enjoy tit-for-tat.

@Ruguo just out of curiosity, does a successful vote to push the button apply the effects in the current phase or does that not happen until the next phase?

The effects take effect as soon as the button is pushed, during the current phase.

A quick Tally of the area for the first 24 hours:

Push the Button: 9
Aragonn: 1 (ExLight)
ExLight: 1 (Excalibur)
Doc: 1 (Barnes)
Barnes: 1 (Doc)

Yet to post: 6

The button is one vote over halfway to being pushed! Let me know if I missed anything, and feel free to harass people to come post.

Sorry about that.

Also the effects are literally listed?

I'll not push the button still and vote @Mathyland just to get them more active.

That's actually a good point.

@Ruguo, I'd like to clarify something: does voting to push the button count as a separate vote to the one for the lynch? Because I wanna start pushing some folks, but I also wanna push the  button.

... And while typing Funnier has since posted. Have you managed to read through the OP and your PM yet?

... And Kane posted just as I was about to post, again. 

Although that's true, I don't want Mathy lurking.

I'm going to focus my attention on @Aragonn for now, though: why exactly are you this defensive? I know from the last game that it's par for the course for you to get very defensive when falsely accused, but not by complete strangers like Ex.

I'm going to vote ExLight.

Voting to push the button is on a completely seprate counter from normal votes. You can do both, just one, or neither at any given time.

I'm not getting defensive. I was simply trying to help people understand the rules. Why everyone is jumping on me for it, I don't know.
