Curses! Foiled again!

Kicking around a setup, tell me how you feel about this and maybe I'll run it:

21 people total
2 scum teams of 3 each, remainder town - Fire and Ice rules are in effect (each team has a kill, if they both pick the same target the kill fizzles)
Each scum team is headed by a captain who picks two other players; those players do not know who picked them
A player can be picked for both scum teams, and if on both teams has both wincons
At the start of every day a random player is given a gun to use during that day; if they don't use it, they get some kind of boon (it's a secret, boons may be different for scum vs. town, boons may be one-shot or permanent)
No night actions other than NKs and the boon actions, if that player gets a boon

Sounds pretty cool to me! Two scum teams always makes things interesting, especially with the WIFOM of wondering who'd get purposely chosen. With an extra kill on top and no default docs-n-blocks, that could turn out to be a real bloodbath, but that can be fun sometimes, haha

You could be a sub, or just jump in and see what happens! Worse comes to worse you get lurker rule'd, and who knows when the game will fill up.

Permissions are probably the most confusing part of setting up a discord if you're not familiar. Other people are a lot more knowledgeable, but in general you want to create any private communication channels beforehand, set 'everyone' permissions so they can't read by default. Then you add individual players as needed and enable permissions accordingly.

Here are a few important points for setting up a Discord:
  • You will want a single "announcements" channel that you generate your invite from (to not reveal channel names) and that has @everyone send-messages permissions turned off (read only). This is where you can post gamewide announcements like day start/end and abuse the @everyone tag.
  • Create an individual channel for each player - naming the channels by player name is easy. As each player joins, add them individually (by user, not by role) to their channel with read/send perms. This way you can put role PMs in there, answer individual questions, and receive night actions. Example of adding an individual to a channel (and not a role) screenshot at the bottom.
  • When all your players have joined the game, add them to their channels, and create a #scumchat or equivalent for your scumteam, and add them as individuals, not by roles - roles are PUBLIC - to that channel with read/send. Do the same for any masonries or other chats.
  • When you're ready to start game and roles are handed out, create a #day1 channel, give everyone read/send perms, and off to the races. I suggest pinning the current deadline.
  • It's up to you if you want to hide previous game days or keep them open for later reference - in Discord it probably makes sense to hide each day as it finishes or only show the previous day since it's a more fast-paced game vs. a forums game, but up to you.



I think that covers everything that immediately comes to mind. Stop back by and let us know how it goes!

This is what I did for my current game, the only difference I have is a spec role that has read permissions for all channels. I also disable reacting to messages so scum can't send each other sneaky notes when I'm not looking.
