2 rooms and a boom.
« on: September 11, 2013, 10:26:14 pm »

Well, I saw one game of this on here, and I was really intrigued by it, so I decided to do another.

Rules

Round 1 will last 2 days, round 2 1 day, and round 3 1 day.

RULE CHANGES/CLARIFICATIONS/MODIFICATIONS:

1. Revealing your card: In this game, there will be 2 types of reveals: Public reveal and co-reveal.

1a. Public reveals: In your QT at any time you may post in bold your role and color (you must do both) like this: I am the Red Mod. If you do this, you CANNOT BE LYING.

1b. Co-reveals: If you would like to co-reveal with someone, post in bold in the QT: Propose co-reveal with [playername]. That person then can confirm/deny it by saying Confirm co-reveal with [playername] or Deny co-reveal with [playername]. If they confirm it, then both players MUST send a PM to the other containing ONLY their color and role name. If you are the shy guy, you MUST deny a co-reveal unless you have been "cured" by the Psychologist.

1c. Private Reveal. You may post in the room thread Private Reveal with [playername]. You then PM the person your role and color. They don't have to return the favor. This is how the Psychologist cures the Shy Guy.

2. Whispering You may whisper to anyone by posting Whisper with [playername]. You then may PM the person. The PM can be of any length, HOWEVER, you only have 5 whispers per round. You don't have to send the PMs to me also, but I would appreciate it  :D.

3. Choosing a Leader At the start of the round, players may make proposals for who they think the leader should be. As soon as there are 2 proposals, each player MUST in their next post vote for either of them like this: vote: [playername]. If there is a tie, start from the beginning.

I think that's it. If you have any questions, ask them now!

ROLES:
1 president
1 bomber
1 shy guy (could be either)
1 psychologist
and the rest as blue-team and red-team cards.

Signups:
1. Tables
2. chairs
3. Liopoil
4. Archetype
5. Fperfect
6. Ahoppy
7. jotheonah
8. Jimmmmm

If you want to run another game of this, I suggest taking a look at how BGG run their games. They've done a bit of experimenting and have a pretty good system going now. I would advise pretty much just copying it.

Also I'd be in.

But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

I've been reading some of the different roles, and it seems like there's a lot of potential for both teams to lose.

(that is, with some of the roles, like "you must be in the same room as the bomber or red loses, you must be in the same room as the president or blue loses", etc)

I just got out of probably the most insane game of 2R1B I've ever played, over on BGG. In short check out the videos here: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCblbDevnx_nZVrWUy-Na-zA?feature=watch. Start with "Undertaker reveal" and move along the series. Now note that these videos are being released alongside players* being unexpectedly killed off by exploding flashlights, there are weird things going on each day, and the person being tortured in those videos is the person who made 2R1B, and... yeah, it lead to a hugely atmospheric game.

*Actually not players but "NPCs" added in for flavour.

I played this IRL for the first time this weekend. It was a real laugh. Unlike Resistance, I think this works way better IRL than on forums. I have a vague review up on BGG if you want to have a look (should be real easy to find...)

Nice review.  I caved a few days ago and backed it.  It looks like the kind of social deduction game I could actually getmy group of friends to play, since it isn't as serious as mafia or the Resistance.  But we'll see if I'm able to play it much come June.
