@sentientprism That's great!! Thanks for your input. We'll do Blast Seed first, then Any Last Words sometime in the future.

Looking for 1 more person so we have enough people to start in November! If we don't get another I can join a game for a demonstration, but it wouldn't be a real game since I would know everyone's roles.

November is here! Our first game will be starting soon.

Since there are only 3 players, I can modify the game to work with just 3.
- The random person given the Blast Seed at the start of the game must be Town/Poliwag. This is because a Ditto getting the weapon would instantly end the game, as they would just kill a town member and win.

- [EDIT]: I've come to realize some flaws with this new game mechanic. If the person you pass the seed to doesn't immediately shoot after getting the weapon, this semi-confirms the third player as mafia. Perhaps to make it more fair, here are two options (please vote!):
(1) The blast seed can't ever be passed in a 3-person game. The random player who starts the game with it MUST shoot or die. The random player is always Town/Poliwag.
OR
(2) The random player who starts the game with the seed MUST pass it to someone else before it can be used to shoot anyone. The random player could be Town/Poliwag or Ditto.

- As a special opening day incentive, the winner of this game will receive this lucky Shiny Exeggcute. The winner can either be the Ditto if they survive until the end of the day, or the Poliwag that killed the Ditto using the seed. We can work out a time to release this golden egg into the shelter. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the shelter, another person may adopt the exeggcute before you get to it.
- If the blast seed cannot be passed around (see options above), on a town win, the town member who didn't shoot will receive a Pokemon to help complete their Pokedex.



Hope these changes are alright with everyone!

Please vote the dates that work best for your schedule. Since there are only three players, the game can only last 1 day (24 hours). Roles will be randomized and sent over Discord PM the day before.

These dates work best for me:
November 7
November 10
November 12
November 13
November 14
November 16
November 17

I think #2 option is more fun of an idea.

I hope I understand how this game works! XD

November 7, 12, 13, 14, or 17 should work for me I think! 17th would be ideal, but it's furthest away.

[I love squirtle line]

Option #2 sounds fun!
I'm fine with most days.

[sentientprism]

14 would work the best, but anything that falls on a tuesday, thursday, or friday works for me
Can't wait to get that exeggcute >:3

Thanks, everyone! Let's do Option 2 on November 14th. The random player starting with the blast seed can be any role, and they must pass it to someone else before the seed can be used to kill. The winner will get the prized golden Exeggcute!

I will randomize roles and send them out over Discord PM on the 13th. Anyone is welcome to join as substitutes or players before the 13th, but after roles are sent out, only spectator slots will be open. If any player has a conflict on the 14th, please let me know ASAP and we can move to another day.

Feel free to message me over PM if you have questions about mechanics/gameplay during the game! I will update the front page with more detailed game info later.
