Apocalypse: Political Tides Open Game

[DJ_MikeyRevile]

No the fastest day was in the Shot in the Dark setup where I was revealed as Mafia.

And I didn't even get a chance to vote lolol

They all knew rapunzel was a whore.

Personally, I think the fool should be replaced with either a VT or a doctor of some kind--even a bodyguard would work. 4 scum, 6 town and a 3rd party is a bit rough.

[SCRIBBLE]

Ban the fool from forum use.

Ban the fool from forum use.

Fool isn't bad if it doesn't end the game, but it definitely makes games more mafia sided since a well played fool means a mislynch. If balanced properly, it isn't so bad, especially when town knows there is one.

[SCRIBBLE]

If fool does not end the game then it is a useless role.

[Assassin]

^ agreed. I think we should ban it.

Game ending Fool is an amazing tool IF it's known beforehand. It's a non-broken third party with a fairly easy win con. It makes claiming more interesting. It force both sides to play intelligently before lynching. Oh I think I see the problem now.

[BladeTwinSwords]

I dislike the Fool/Jester. If you want to use a 3rd Party Role, try Survivor, Doublevoter, Lyncher, or even a Bus Driver.

[Sin]

The point of this is to have fun and ending a game early because of a Mislynch on a Fool isn't fun, and continuing the game after lynching the Fool defeats the whole purpose of the role. It's a fucking waste. Period. I'd rather have Cult than a fool.

[Blackmage]

The same can be said for any number of things, a N0 kill for example. It's also why I specified a known fool. An unknown fool ending a game comes from left field. Losing to a known fool means you got outplayed. Exactly like any other mislynch. The main difference is even scum are susceptible to this mislynch.

But, put simply, if people don't like it, avoid games with it, or avoid running games with it.
