TDS: How is your non-death worded, in general terms? "Cannot die", "cannot be attacked", how?

Kills have a 100% chance of failure so I'm safe from the rule that makes kills bypass protections.

it happened it happened it happen im so hyped to actually get attacked now

Anyway, exactly what do these 'boxes of Orden' do?
You have two good options for learning about that:
Option one: Read the Sword of Truth series.
Option two: Read the rant about the Boxes of Orden I'm about to write.
~~~
(I don't know how it is in this game, but I can tell you how it was in the books...)
There are 3 boxes of Orden, no more, no less. Each one comes with a "cover". A box with a "cover" on it cannot be opened. The "covers" can be removed using magic, revealing a box of pure black.
In order to open a box: you must have at least one of them, then you can "put it into play". This gives you significant magical protection(for instance protection from the Sword of Truth)(I assume this is why TDS is unkillable), enables you to open a box, once you have all 3, but will kill you if you have not done so by the first day of winter. You do not need all 3 Boxes of Orden to put one into play. Once somebody has all 3 boxes of Orden, whoever has all 3 may open one of them at any time. One box grants whoever opens it godlike power. One of the two wrong boxes... kills the opener, and tears a hole in reality(let's hope that doesn't happen) that opens into the underworld. The other wrong box... kills everything. In order to determine which box is the correct one to open, one must preform complicated magical rituals and have access to a specially made sanctuary built to allow said rituals to be possible.
~~~
In short... I wouldn't be too surprised if TDS was lying about some of the aspects of his role. I learned that his statement "I have a role that stops everyone from winning" was true, but if that meant that his role could possibly stop everyone from winning(everybody dies box)... hm.

FoU:
Shakerag: You have an evil twin. Are you going to do something about that.
That would depend on whether or not I -can- do something about it.  For now, I think it's kind of hilarious.
Also, the Sword of Truth series sucked  >_<


Tawarochir:
Looks like you got my trigger warnings role.  Sorry bub.
WARNING: This post may trigger an infraction on my part but it's worth it
(also screw you, whoever submitted that role)
You're welcome.


4maskwolf:
What's this nonsense about this "ragshake" person being "Shakerag's evil twin".  I've played with Shakerag before, and there is no good in him.  There is no possible way for ragshake to actually be the evil twin of that duo.

Just saying.
This.  This right here.  It likely should have been my good twin  >_>


Tiruin:  Define a "healthy" amount.

The Moonlit Shadow:  Are you having problems accessing quicktopic right now?

TolyK:  How much Shakeragian bullshit did you personally introduce into this game?

Ragshake:  'sup, buddy?  Wanna go somewhere and get totally shitfaced and swap stories?

A Tumbling Tumbleweed:  *makes tumbleweed noises*

Hector13:  What question should I be asking you right now?

OSG:  What's new in the field of origami science?

Teneb:  Doesn't RVS seem even more pointless in a game like this?

I'm going to answer this question even though it's not mine. Because it's relevant.
I submitted 8 roles. Half of those were shakeragian.

So does any role I submit automatically make it Shakeragian?  I'm not sure how this works.    ???

He's Shakerag, thus everything he does is in the style of Shakerag, or Shakeragian.

FoU

Hector13: how are you going to vary your gameplay for this obviously bastard game? (I mean, examine who is voting for you...)

Not too much, probably. Everyone is still (kind of technically) on equal footing, so yeah. Trying to predict the bastardry that can occur in a game with 15 players and 80 roles... no thank you.



kills of any sort have a 20% chance of failing (on top of any other chances) but bypass all protection abilities, and any other action has a 10% chance of turning into a kill.

Flabsy baby, presumably this includes the lynch?



Shakerag

Hector13:  What question should I be asking you right now?

Dunno. I assume it would be best to ask a question that stems from how our wincons work relative to each other, but since I don't know your one nor how it will affect mine, my answer will be thus: standard RVS fare, perhaps a hypothetical situation?



niwT livE s'garekahS ,ekahsgaR, perhaps? Or maybe just ekahsgaR? In a mirror? While holding two angry bees on a leash, in each hand? Also dancing the cha-cha?

Red rum? Blue rum? Purple rum?

OSG with the triple vote. Yeehaw.
Hector13 Hector13 Hector13
Whaaaaat? You see nothing...
Are you interested in catching scum, or just screwing around? They are not mutually exclusive, but you seem to be focusing only on the latter. Furthermore, why spend all three votes on the same person?

4maskwolf: Any analysis to be posted about the public mechanics thus far?
Teneb and TolyK(and NQT): Same question.
Way to go with being lazy with your questions. There isn't much to analyze that wasn't already. Not that there was much to begin with.

TheDarkStar: Are you town?

Can everybody claim their roles?
This is a terrible idea, since an early massclaim aids only scum. Especially in outlandish setups like this one.

Teneb:  Doesn't RVS seem even more pointless in a game like this?
I used to be a firm believer in RVS, but now not so much. Yeah, it is pretty useless since it gives exactly zero benefits to a player, town or scum.

Same thing could be said about you, mang. OSG's post was within the first few hours of the game starting, not sure how anyone is s'posed to be finding scum then, particularly when you ask a pretty naff question to your vote, and then decry RVS as being a bit pointless - in general, but also specifically in a game like this.

Perhaps you'd like to explain why you're so bothered by this..? And then why you vote for the same person that OSG triple-voted later?

I'm sorry.

Moonlit, don't use your box inspect on me (at least not first), I am 99% sure I won't be using my box in the near future.

Also, I might have a mini-nuke launcher built into me. Except not the boomie kind of of nuke.


I feel like we won't be getting anywhere without either bigger roleclaims or "shit getting real".
So, in this case, I'd like to ask Everyone: Who isn't afraid of dying, other than TDS?

I already claimed that I can't win or lose unless very specific circumstances are met.

Hector: The difference, is that I am playing to win. And as I said above and before, it is not going to be an exactly easy job.

Also of note, I'm pretty sure I can kill everyone at least once, probably twice, if that's required for a plan.

Everyone: Does anyone have a "role transfer" role, as in stealing/trading/etc? I have free suicides to give away as well.
