I've started to throw around some role ideas - not baking until we get a locked in player count, but I'm looking at ingredients.

Nine players is doable... I'd love more though so if you're lurking the thread, search your feelings and know that you want to join.

I will join so long as I don't have to meaningfully participate.

I understood nothing, contributed nothing, but still got to win, so good game everybody else.

Feel free to submit a role idea like "role that is limited to one post per day" or "role that dies on D1" etc.

Doh.  Speed - blowback - kill - vulnerability - daytime.  You're dead, Jim!  With a suitable (unsuitable?) role, at least.

Alright, that's a good idea, in with role that should prevent me from having to do too much playing.

Oversharing> Uncertainty> Spheres> Flux> Cursed> Selfless> Niche> Convolution> Distributed> Second Wincon> Counter> Vulnerability> Limitation> Blowback> Cascade> Progression> Super> Insane to take all red spheres alongside blue Spheres. Red loop is still in full swing.

Some player love to collect as many drawbacks as possible, and if that makes it more fun for them, so much better, but to reiterate:

Powers won't inherently be more powerful if the player has lots of flaws, so don't take red spheres unnecessarily

Unfortunately, all players must start on a blue sphere. Which is why I believe that collecting all red spheres in this game is actually impossible.

It's possible to get all the red spheres legally, it's just not particularly advised and it makes it more of a headache for me to make the role make sense. Here's one such route:

Player 3 doesn't care about fitting the role to the powers picked, that's the mod's job.

I do try to be gracious to my players.

Ingredient selection continues. I'll give Jim and anyone else another day to consider whether to join and then I'll start baking these roles in earnest.

I'll join because I probably won't be able to stop myself from meaningfully participating.

Thank you. All the roles are now provisionally written. I'll check them over for Fun, Viability, Strategic Range... and Balance.

When I begin in about 10 hours time, the game will soft-start with an actionless N0 where the thread will be locked and players will have a some time to ask me any clarificatory questions, I can edit any mistakes in role PMs noticed etc., before we begin in earnest.
