BASTARD SWORD - Alice’s Super Ultra Mega Nonsensical Bastard Game whose Mechanics and Flavor make no Sense Whatsoever but for Some Fucking Reason Alice wants this Game to be a Balanced Singleball Game with no Conversions. She is Probably High as a Kite but Fuck it, what could Possibly go Wrong so May as Well Join. Plus it’s not Like You’re Using Your Time Productively so in and Play, or in and Slank and when you Get Pushed Just Self-Vote and AtE II: Electric Boogaloo - the Return of the Mafia - the Jester Strikes Back, Much to Icibalus’ Chagrin

Also, after going through that, I have made the executive decision to stand down as a junior reviewer as that was too frightening for me. I will instead be resuming my job of providing cat pictures to all reviewers on demand. Thank you.

Review mountainous games

[Zone_Q11]

@Wazza

how can scum IC ever be balanced

I mean… I once encountered a Guilty Child on a bastard game on PokeBeach?

[Zone_Q11]

Unless Guilty Child /= Scum InnoChild.
If it really is a scum with the ability to mechanically show that they are an InnoChild, then that is pretty much bad in general.

[Amelia]

Well you see

Guilty Child is just why

Scum aligned Innocent Child is actually unfair

[Amelia]

Yeah scum aligned IC reveals as town :wowee:

[Zone_Q11]

@Amelia

@Amelia

Yeah scum aligned IC reveals as town :wowee:

Guilty Child confused everyone since it was actually a bastard game.
Scum InnoChild isn’t necessarily unfair, but simply annoying.

If you want to know what unfair is like, then try playing Rokugan FM: Without doing anything, the game already ended because half of all players in that game threw away their lives by claiming their role and thereby not only committed suicide, but also killed the other half of the players who actually wanted to play the game. Now THAT is unfair.

[Marshal]

It was a mafia member modrevealed as town

[Zone_Q11]

Yeah, that’s annoying AF, but not exactly unfair.
–not something I’d want to play with though.

[DatBird]

was the game portrayed as a bastard game? Like if it wasnt thats unfair

[thepigeonnyc]

@DatBird

was the game portrayed as a bastard game?

No, it was somehow listed as Standard on the queue.

[DatBird]

again its different, bastard is sometime in op alone. It doesnt need to be categorized.

@Arete

Current Game Types Include:
FoL: The Website’s premiere game, handled by the FOL Balance Team
SFoL: A variant of FoL
Vanilla FM: Games with only vanilla roles that are open/semi open. List of roles
Standard FM: Like Vanilla but closed.
Special FM: Which is like role madness with weird mechanics.
Mash/Mini Mash: Like any of the FMs but 20+ people for Mini and 30+ people for Mash

Subcategories that exist but are not needed:
Anon: all alt game
Comp: Competitive Game

Starting

hence why its not on this list

[Geyde]

It had other significant structural problems that contributed to the ruling
Granted, you theoretically could have fixed it
But its design appears to be deliberately frustrating

[DatBird]

And I dont doubt that it had those problems, Im just saying in a non bastard game that role is like uber bad
