Re: wD Mafia Master Post
What are the rules about this anyways? It seems like there is a consensus that GMs handpicking players for roles is bad, and randomization is good. "Rerolling" randomized roles is sometimes acceptable. Is there a rule or Kouncil decision that GMs cannot handpick players for roles? I've seen (and rea...

Re: wD Mafia Master Post
Alright here's my opinion on all this: GMs should have to randomize roles. GMs should not (be able to) handpick who gets what role. If GMs randomize and there is an obviously problem, such as that the entire scum-team is new players, the GM should completely reroll the setup. GMs should readily admi...

Play Gunboat against a Press Diplomacy Player!
Note: This is the unofficial sequel to the game "Play Press Diplomacy against a Gunboater" (https://webdiplomacy.net/beta/?gameID=911477). I'm setting up an anonymous gunboat game. I have played almost exclusively press in the past (except bots). The gimmick of this game (and the past one) is that t...

Re: 4^2 + 4 questions: Round 17^2
Clarification: does the QM consider mutants (X-Men) to be human? Canonically I think the answer is yes but figured it was worth asking… Assuming the answer is yes, Is the character either 1) primarily associated with the X-Men franchise, 2) female, or 3) both? To the clarification, yes. To the ques...

Re: Lord of the Rings vs Harry Potter
Harry Potter has no stakes. If He Who Must Be Redacted traps Harry in a magical mini prison (not that this ever happened as far as I know), Dumbledore might or might not detect it from miles away and magically teleport Harry to the middle of a Quidditch match, whichever is plot convenient. He Who Mu...
