Welcome to the Ravenswood Bluff section of E, BlueOrange!

I’d like to play when that becomes an option, I’ve played before in person and on Discord, and the game thread shows clearly that fun is being had!

On a related note: Are you allowing Traveller characters?


Ooooh.

A new person AND with experience.  Amazing.

SO!

Come over to this thread.

You're in for Season 7!


Hatless is Storytelling and we're using a Bad Moon Rising script!


As for Travelers!  Maybe?

We've used them in the past and I found them (just me) pretty disruptive to the flow.

BUT...if the Good team or the Evil team really starts to get a huge lead, then I might throw a Traveler or two into the game to make it a little more close?

So...stay tuned?  :)


Looking forward to getting you in the mix though.  We have a really strong group presently with you and one more waiting in the wings to jump in.  The next season is going to be a doozy!

Yeah, the face to face game I played where a traveler showed up, they were plenty disruptive. It was fun in person, but forums are different, so I don’t want to press hard for something you’re not confident you’ll enjoy.

I may just have to mess with Kara in one of our more established venues ;)

So I THINK the Traveler could be good.

But as it stands, I'd be bringing in you and another.

Jumping two into the game could be a pretty big swing.  So it really comes down the right situation and a good deal of finesse.

I'm looking for opportunities.  :)

Think I would be interested in trying this out after reading the season 6 thread. So once a slot/new game opens up, please let me know!

Amazing!

You JUST missed getting in on Season 7.

When we roll out Season 8, I'll give you a nudge.

Feel free to jump into the OOC and say "Howdy"

Put you on people's radars and keep you in the mix.

We are recruiting for Season 8!

Yup.

Season 8.

Which is crazy and amazing.  Cramayzing? 

Cramayzing tm

So!

We are looking for more players.  If you ARE interested, go to the first page of this thread and read.

Please note, this game is an exercise in effort and participation.  If you haven't the inclination to invest effort and participate, that's not a problem.  It's not an indictment against your character.

All it means is that right now, you're not able to make the commitment.  That's not a problem.  Maybe another season!





Here's what I learned this season...which was a month-long exercise in disinformation, gaslighting and crushed dreams.

Clocktower is a reflection of society.  Particularly late-stage capitalist society.  It shows just how powerful disinformation and misinformation can be.  You get to learn what sort of person you are.

Do you let the uncertainty, dishonesty and confusion make you retreat to safer corners (no judgement here if you do) or do you get out there and actively try to fight against it?  (no judgement here if you do)

Do you give up when things seem impossible in an online social deduction game or do you dig in like a tick and suck out all of the delicious fun juice to be had?  Or do you walk a middle path?

Again...not judging but you WILL find this sortof stuff out.


It absolutely shows you the best and worst that humanity has to offer.  It can be distressing but it can also be so heartening, it's like nothing I've ever come across on the internet.


This game CAN and quite likely will step on your brain a little.  It will find your cracks and open them up with a crowbar before jamming sticks of dynamite in the holes.

This game CAN and quite likely will step on your feelings a little.  However...the same person who is flatout lying to you and manipulating you in game, will also be the first person to give you a high five and a bottom pat in OOC when things get hard.

They're an excellent...excellent group of people.

The excellentest even.




If you're interested, let us know.  Here...or come into the OOC and say hello...

Season 8 of Blood on the Clocktower.

Come stand triumphantly atop of a pile or corpses that you probably had at least figuratively and possibly literally had a hand in.

...or die trying.

Can attest. These people are amazing!

... and frightening.

I've participated in all 8 seasons. This game is not for the faint of heart. Someone will have a mental breakdown.

That's really part of the fun at this point.
