Hmm...good point.

Ok, I'll keep him as he is.

[JoshuaFH]

I'm still worried about feature creep. To be honest.

[Mephansteras]

Yeah, feature creep is always a concern. But I think we're starting to stabilize at this point, and I don't think any of the current changes will have too big of an impact on the game.

And I started up the Wizard Duel to give me something else to tinker with. So I shouldn't have to mess with Paranormal as much.

[Mephansteras]

Ok, I'm going to start sign-ups for Paranormal 10 soon.

Currently planned changes:

Add Watcher in as an Alien Role whose goal is to extend the game

Add in Stun Orb, Stun Bomb, Human Tech, and Combat Camouflage as Alien Tech options.

[Pandarsenic]

I'll pre-in.

Can we have signups be in the discussion thread, actually? Less crowding the game thread with 40 posts of signups?

[Mephansteras]

Mmm...I don't want to crowd up the discussion thread that much, either. How about a sign-up thread and then a separate game thread?

I'll get a sign-up thread started a bit later today. (I have to leave to take care of some stuff soon)

[Pandarsenic]

That'll work.

[NUKE9.13]

Yes, I began to realise that even just after I'd posted it.  On the other hand, there aren't so many psychic abilities where you'd be able to tell if someone has a mindshield - the Warden is one of them.  Here's a possible solution to the problem of easy to find EAs:

Telepath - Possibly gets a Survive result, although this would weaken this role a bit.

Disciple of Truth - Well, using this on an EA will already make their role known, so they could just be blocked as usual.

Warden - Thinks he has successfully roleblocked the Exterminator, when he actually has't.

Warlock - Doesn't matter much, the Warlock doesn't know who the morning kill shouldve got.

Yes.
That is all.
Ok no it isn't.
My experience as an exterminator this round was well balanced. That was + free human tech. And + an operative. And + a mindshield which was not guaranteed.
So for future exterminators this better Advanced Alien Mind Shield would probably balance them properly. So Yes.

[Mephansteras]

Ok. I'll put up a poll on it.

[Servant Corps]

Meph, can you send me the program you use for Paranormal Mafia. I was thinking of eventually converting it to handle Quantum Paranormal Mafia.

[Mephansteras]

Sure. The most recent version is at work, but I'll send it on Monday.

[Leafsnail]

By the way, I decided to make a wordle of the roles list.  Of course, the word "DOPPELGANGER" appears in ginormous red text.

Quantum Paranormal? Are you sure?
Advice: get discussion up first. Get a certainty of the rules. Don't do what I did and get everyone confused at the start. Good luck with it.

[Servant Corps]

I'm just trying to think if there is some sort of program that can be used to calcuate odds. If A is the FBI Agent and checks B, and A finds out that B is Human, I want to eliminate all possiblites that would have A be the FBI Agent and B appear Alien or Doppelganger. To make it easier to do.

I'm not so interested in starting the game right now, or even this season. I may need to set up the rules later on though.

[Mephansteras]

Well, I hope you can handle perl.
