Hi guys! I received a lot of questions about the game today, so I decided that I will make one key change to the gameplay.
Each round, you will now choose to attack a character, not another user anymore. I decided to change this to avoid players from targeting certain users and encourage more strategy.
With this, one way to play is that you can stab a character based on their HP level or bounty, depending on which is more beneficial for your survival.
Sorry for this sudden change guys. Let me know if you have any more questions and concerns.

Please rig and give me bounty -300PH guy

doesn't that make the minus bounty characters much better to have at the start? cause it doesnt make much strategic sense to get rid of them and risk your own hp even if they are easier to kill, especially when you can already lose hp with the weapons

@sooz I read the OP and I have 2 questions!

1) "Binoculars: Immune from all stab actions, and can see everyone who tries to stab you during the round. However, the user can’t do any stab actions."
Will the player with the binoculars see the name of the player or their character?

2) I don't get the "bounty" thing. I understand it's a reward? Is it the HP that the person who manages to give a final stab to another player will get as a reward?

(Please bear with me I've never played this game )

Great question! I think one strategy is that if you have a high enough HP (like from 1200 to 1500 HP), you can try to eliminate them immediately from the start, and then gain HPs back eventually from other characters. It’s pretty risky, but it’s one way to get them out of the game quickly to focus on other, more beneficial characters.
As for the weapons, the chances of you losing HPs are pretty low, since it only happens when you target other people with the vest or binoculars.

1) They will see the name of the characters.

2) Yes, bounty is the reward of killing a character. For instance, you managed to give the final, killing stab to one character with a bounty of 300 HP. This means that you will gain 300 HP as a reward.

Thank you very much for your explanations, now I understand everything

ik but what i don't get is that what incentive would the high hp character have to do that (kinda doing a favor to the other players even) especially as their bounty is the highest and thus the most sought after so they have to be real aware of most people coming after them for that

and the only difference between the two lady characters with 1000 hp and the two gens with 1000 hp is the bounty, they have the same amount of health but i feel like people would rather go after the ladies for the chance of gaining hp instead of losing it. so i just feel like attacking the characters makes them very unequal

 

[soozie]

Sorry for all the messy adjustments everyone. I tried to experiment with this game, so there are quite some problems and issues. I will try to work through everything asap to make sure that the game runs smoothly tomorrow.

You bring up some really great points that I didn't think through well while planning this. Thanks emma, I will make sure to adjust everything to make the game fun tomorrow.

i really do love the idea! sorry for the trouble, i do get how attacking players does have its own faults as well

Hi everyone, please read over the OP and character cards again before the game starts since there have been lots of BIG changes.
This will be the FINAL change to the game. No more adjustments will be made after this.

Summary of adjustments:
- The game will now be more group-based to make the game less complicated.
- All characters now have the same HP and bounty to avoid any unfairness.
- 16 player games, with some new characters.
- You are no longer allowed to reveal your character. However, you can give certain hints about the characters’ features and crimes to help your group. Example: My character is a female, and she killed someone.

Similar game example: The Blind Stab

Sorry again for the mess, and thank you all for pointing out the issues. Please let me know if you have any questions about the changes.
