For the record, I was trying to get a neutral alignment since that's one of the few roles I haven't had. I also probably should have been less creative with the items I was giving out since only ones of those saw any use as far as I can tell.
Granted I did good laugh when I saw the results given that INANTP killed me as Robot Santa in Baidol's SE++ phalla. I guess revenge is a dish best served cold. :P
but THAT kill was for attacking me in DDS!
there's likely a moral here, but on the other hand

Discrider, some soph-to-frosh advice: if you get a role that entertaining it is usually a good idea to keep it on the down-low for a day or two rather than go crazy Day 1, if only to learn the lay of the land. My education in that regard came at premium's hands earlier this year, which is where his habit of Day 1 voting me originated, even iif he forgot.
I then swore yet-to-be realized vengeance. Some day I'll make him rue his actions!
I was very happy that other people chose roles with post restrictions, because it ended up letting my dudes get lost in the crowd until the last day.
Also, at first I was pretty sure that I had no idea how my cult worked, as I wasn't getting any host confirmation on their conversion, and when I would ask, roman would make sure to mention "successful" conversions as if I might not be able to change someone. I soon had the idea that maybe I wasn't even a real cult! I got super paranoid.
Then of course, on the last day I realized that the reason we hadn't found a mafia was because we were the mafia, and I felt a bit better. If only INANTP hadn't died, it would have been my second perfect cult victory. But as it stands, it should be a very Merry Vegemite Christmas for everyone!

Meh.
At some point through Day 1 I suddenly decided that I didn't have the tact to successfully roleplay Sam Kekovich without offending everybody.
This role was also not the original one I submitted, which was more or less a silent cult (i.e the win condition wouldn't propagate from me, and wouldn't affect anyone else's gameplay) based on turning people into lamb-lovers through either PM conversations or people voting last on the vote leader (sheeple).
And then I got fixated on ObiFett through a (correct) read that suggested he was just throwing any and every accusation at me for no reason.
Basically, as vote leader on the last day of day 1 within like 10 minutes of the first vote on me, and without much motivation to actually use my role, I may have lost all my will to live.
So I just started having fun instead, whilst also trying to incriminate ObiFett because I didn't even consider that someone would behave in that manner as a villager.
Well the initial idea was, as a player with a completely independent win condition I'd be free to move to align myself with whatever group. And so long as that win condition was sufficiently hard, I'd have to be interacting with everybody anyway and eventually form some sort of alliance between some group and myself.
But then when my role turned purely dependent on the posts of others in the main thread, I became a resource rather than a player, especially as the standard village win condition seemed unattainable that game.
I tried to make the best of it by posting frequently (and getting metaed for it) and by forcing it down people's throats (hence the tin of spam comments). But in the end, the winning strategy for that role was probably to just get infected and then boost the power of the team that infected me.
So I still like the original role idea I sent in, but, without knowing about the cult mentality of this game a priori, the role I wound up with just seemed like a vanillager.
Cults are really powerful, even more so in a game like this. Sad that i died so early, since i had three or four more croc pics lined up.
They are, though there being only the cult as a group and having the post restriction helped a little I think. If someone has caught on sooner to my viral spread, I could have been voted off quick.
The holidays really did help though I think.

I really don't get why you weren't voted out sooner. Getting a power that only inflicted a post restriction really didn't seem like your bag.
I think I have to award my favourite role to Discrider for Sam Kekovich, though Kime was probably a close second.
Sam Kekovich's Aussie Assault on Christmas
Sam loves lamb.
Support Aussie Famers:
You may publicly try to convince someone of the power of lamb.
For anyone who publicly embrace Lamb's power, active abilities they use that night are unblockable and immune to redirection. Once a player has embraced lamb's power, they may not do so again.
Taking over one Barbecue at a time:
You may kill anyone who expresses a preference of other competing meat other than lamb in the main thread.
This is limited to one kill per day.
(Seafood does not count as a competing meat, others may be judged as they come up)
Direct references to things like Sausage/meat pies and other meats of unknown origin are not included unless their type has been specified and does not include lamb).
This can be prevented if they turn from their ways and support Aussie Farmers publicly.
It is not possible for this ability to be redirected to target Sam Kekovich. Sam Kekovich only eats lamb all the time. If this attack tries to target Sam Kekovich, it rebels and hits the guy who targeted or moved the target to Sam Kekovich.
Win Condition: Ensure Christmas remains lamb-filled, safe and fun for everyone.
It just fit the spirit of the theme so well and I really liked the roleplay. I'm sad that it's probably lost on non-natives.
Awww, second. Well, not bad for coming up with it in 10 minutes or so :P
Kime, did you just want to be the spirit of death, or did you never contact me while still a tourist for some other reason?
Ummm... no real reason I didn't contact you. I actually wanted to survive longer as a Tourist since that helped me live longer as Death, but it turned out that it didn't matter anyways. I mean, besides them being linked thematically, I didn't think there was another reason to do so.
Obviously I was wrong haha. Whoops! I probably would have had I lived another day or so, but oh well.

I honestly thought I could win with Langly, so ummm... yeah. Otherwise I'd have killed him for being a cult leader a lot earlier :P
AuralynxDarkness is a perspectiveWatching the ego workRegistered Userregular
Yeah, I was on to the cult the day before I got converted, but with a ton of wildlife and the only tourist dead, I wasn't about to tell what I was pretty sure was a bunch of mostly-hostile people I couldn't join about the cultists.
I was pretty sure from the PMs that sickened me that jdark was, like, all of the spiders in Australia or something, which was pretty close, so I stopped PMing him.
This game, particularly due to the Copy Croc, ability steals, and so on, could have gotten much crazier than it did; I was a little disappointed there weren't more tourists to help out, myself. :P
For reference I was tempted to call the game last night when the cult has control of the vote but If a particular set of circumstances occurred (kime kills langly, cult votes out a villager, vertroue roleblocks langly, and a cultist kills themselves with the exosuit) It could have forced a village cult draw.
There was no mafia. After I saw the submissions I had the option to try and Macguyver together a mafia or just let it roll with a cult and handful of SKs.
But yeah I guess I was in a tough spot once I died. I think part of the problem was it's hard to pick being the mafia when you don't know who the good guys and bad guys will be haha

Don't sweat it, at the rate I'm going it'll be 2016 before I feel sufficiently capable of rue generation.
Also freaked out a little when gizzy died since I only contacted Obi and he said he was a jellyfish. Defiently expected to have more time this game but with the holidays it wasnt ment to be.
You are Santa's big book of names, cataloging if every child is naughty or nice. It's gotten pretty bloated over the years though, so Santa has trouble finding who he wants to look for in it.
Abilities: The Naughty/Nice list knows any/all Santas in the game, and any/all Santas know of the list. The list has a nightly seer and wins when it knows the alignments of all characters in the game. Any Santa characters can forgo their nightly action to look up a character in the list, if the list is aware of the alignment of the player the Santa will be informed of it.
You get to decide who counts as a "Santa"
My plan was for there to be both a good and evil type santa and have to work to keep them both even while I tried to find out who everyone was but then there were basically no santas at all so I got stuck with the most useless seer in the history of phalla.

I think you just got caught on the bad end of a page changeover with a bunch of people racing the vote-close.
