How limited are we talking? Have you at least finished a few regular games?

Semi-Bastards can be rather nasty, since you have to figure out a lot more than the normal Mafia problems.

Well.  Not necessarily regular.  But I have played ...I think it ran for unlucky thirteen or so before interest dropped.  Don't want to bother looking it up, though...Mobile sucks.  Also so does that site but I digress.
In short, I know I know the basics (always be paranoid), and I don't know if I know any actual tactical whatever.
P.S., that does mean The GM Is A, right?

[Mephansteras]

Ok, well, I suggest going back through and reading some of the other Bastard and Semi-Bastard games that have been run on this board. They'll give you an idea of what you might be up against.

And, yes, it means either the GM or the Set-Up is being a bastard. This is a Semi-Bastard in that it's more the set-up and hidden information that is bastardly rather than me specifically lying/messing with people.

IN!

[Mephansteras]

Ok, that's 11. I'll get working on the Role PMs and the game should get started some time later today.

Everybody: Do you think that Meph's ability to edit posts will have a profound impact on the game?

boolean opinion_modification_impactful = true;
return opinion_modification_impactful;
/*...*/


DO NOT EDIT POSTS

[Teneb]

TheBiggerFish: Don't edit posts.

OSG: Considering how Meph advertised it as one of the unique things about this, I hope so.

Mod: Are you the User?

[Mephansteras]

Mod: Are you the User?

NEGATIVE. This is just an AI. The User is external to THE SYSTEM.

[notquitethere]

OSG, indubitably. We should be alert for post-related shenanigans: especially appearing and disappearing votes.

Tomasque, How do you intend to find scum today?

Toony, what power would you put in the game if you were building a game with a post-editing mechanic?

[ToonyMan]

Toony, what power would you put in the game if you were building a game with a post-editing mechanic?

A trigger word that would self-destruct the game.
