I'll try to get game thread open, and role PMs out ASAP. Maybe today, but might won't go until tomorrow.

FYI, as we prepare the final roster - due to demand, some people have been bumped, as per usual. It is not personal. We are sorry. It happens and it sucks. We are implementing the new rule about people who replace in gaining priority for a future game, to foster willing replacements.
Is that just the rule going forward or just using it again for this game specifically?

Look at it this way - you're less likely to die N1 now.

iirc something like that used to be a thing, but splitting discussion can mean no discussion.
It could also be construed as unfair - having others to bounce ideas off of in private about alignments outside of the game then subbing in. It would likely have to have some sort of stricter guidelines.

We will discuss it in review thread to see if it should become official, but I personally am a strong proponent for finding ways to reward people for replacing in.

So the answer here is "indeterminate at this time."

When I inevitably forget to post in the review thread, someone should tally me as "yeah, we should offer as many perks as possible for being a rep because it's almost always terrible"

I still remember subbing in for Lifeline in HvV and almost immediately getting checked by a cop. RIP. Of course that's nothing compared to Gorlak spending all night catching up on an in-progress game just to be iced.

This is my biggest fear honestly lol, he subbed in for like the last hour of a day and then got killed that night. Seeing that happen in my first game probably shaped how I view being a replacement now lol.

It got done to Sorian once too, as I recall... very grandpa-simpson.gif.

I don't think being a replacement is terrible, though. Yeah, there are those situations wherein folks are just evil (as we do in mafia), but sometimes the fresh eye can turn the game around. Or lose it. Either way.

I do agree that a perk like that for replacing in would be good. It's more painful to catch up with a thread from scratch (since not everyone who replaces will keep up with it) than it is to be there and in it from the start.

Pssh, I didn't read that thread, I've learned how fast I'll catch a knife.

Never forget getting RNGods killed after staying 4 whole cycles inside Cell!Muffin on HvV.

I kept up with the thread for almost a week while I secretly wished Muffin exploded from within, only to murdered by a random ass Nemesis from nowhere. And Sorian also tried to kill me too, what's up with that?!

PS: people who sub in are genuine heroes. In a game this size, we will most likely go down the list a lot, so stay strong!

I only moved to replacements because I'm busy like the first week of the game, but sure I'll be a hero I guess

I'd feel more bad if I wasn't in Muffin with you.

I've been awakened from my slumber. I move to Louisiana tomorrow but once I'm settled I should be ready to participate again if you guys'll have me.

Any tips on living in the middle of nowhere?

Play mafia, take up a weird hobby, yell at stupid people on the internet.

I may have some experience here.

The replacement list is about to be fixed a bit actually - the original list was put in incorrect order. You should be raising up in spots.
