I was tempted to get back into a game again, but the hammers and no extensions sold it for me.  In.

Can you lie?

What is spoilspec?

[Persus13]

You spectate the game, but "spoiled" on info.

Players can lie, but I won't intentionally lie to the players.

Spoilspec is as Persus says. You get access to the quicktopic where I share what happens.

So we starting on the first or just closing signups?
I suppose those are the same thing in a proc-gen game

[notquitethere]

I've got a full day on the 1st, so probably starting on the 2nd or 3rd. Signups until we start.

Once per night you can perform the same action as yourself on a random person targeting your target. Action: Mimic.

Still trying to parse what exactly this role would do if your target also targeted you.

[KitRougard]

You're doing the same action as yourself so uh...

Nothing I think. A visit?

Proc Gen is good yes

Good to have you on board. Here if it randomised to you, you would mimic yourself mimicking yourself, which would do nothing.

A point of possible clarification... a lot of the powers work off an idea of a player's target. This is ambiguous, as you can act against someone without that person being your target. Take for instance:

Once per night, you may give a piece of fruit to your target's target.

If I targeted Tiruin with that and Tiruin targeted Toonyman, then I would give a piece of fruit to Toonyman, but (crucially) Tiruin would still have been my target. So if I was investigated with learn your target's target, should that person get back Tiruin, my given target, or Toonyman who I actually acted upon? In the last game the ruling was the former: "target" always refers to the person's specified target, not whomever they incidentally affected, except when they had been redirected.

What I may look to do is resolve the ambiguity by improving the wording of the generated powers.

Systemic Randomizer
Once per night you can receive a list of a third of the action type names in play. Action: Census.

Would something like this be re-randomized every night, or would I be guaranteed to have a complete list by the third night?

Are dead players valid targets for abilities not specifying them? What about abilities that target randomly?

Is there any situation in which a dead player is able to act, e.g. if they're brainwashed?

I would like to sign up for being a spoiled spectator.

It would be random each night. Also before we start I should reword "in play" to be clearer as to whether it includes dead players as well.

Dead players can only be targeted by abilities which explicitly include dead players, so wouldn't normally be hit by randomised abilities.

Is there any situation in which a dead player is able to act, e.g. if they're brainwashed?

It is possible to have powers that brainwash the dead into acting or otherwise mimic their abilities.

I'm guessing we start as soon as NQT puts out his next post.
Y'all still here?
