I'm not sure if we were supposed to or able to specify the scope of our theme; I'd like to request if possible that it is applied to the whole game.

I'm posting this here because what's the point of having pregame discussion if you can't introduce wifom about asymmetry in the information you are providing to the mod and to your fellow players?

Also, it may resolve in a hilarious way.

I'm working hard to pursue my faction's strategic interests (power, survival, survival through power) by posting what may or may not be posts related to my role and/or theme.  I don't know what my faction is (outsider, obviously), but I'm sure they'll be happy with this.

I'll just treat the entire game as one long RVS, voting at random and asking inane questions until you all get sick of me and lynch me.

Obviously I'm not the Jester.

Is this a rhetorical question? Assuming not, it's to psych yourselves up about the game and in the case of BYORs to speculate on your roles, and to psych out your potential opponents.

How many people included a link as part of their role submission? o/

I can't lynch you because you're cute

Is this a rhetorical question?
Yes.
Also I discussed this in another thread, pregames are fun but they encourage some really dumb habits and a rather odd best practice if you want to make mafia serious business.

I needed a link to explain my theme, but my role is almost entirely undefined and as prosaic as they come so it didn't need one.

This game makes mafia something, but I wouldn't say it's serious.

Hahah. Yes, this is why I enjoy BYOR games and other similar mafias, the silliness of it, and how crazy it gets. When a game is mostly vanilla and all business, I find it more stressful than fun; hence why I left the forums for a while, too much stress, and too addicted to mafia games to stop myself from entering the games that I knew would be more stress than fun.

I honestly hope my theme becomes an underlying one for this entire game.

My submission contained links, but that's more for clarity's sake.

BYOR = fun, because each person has proprietary information, and not just the scum team. Haven't we discussed this already? :P

webadict strikes me as someone who would choose my theme to apply to the game.

My role submission was a self-explanatory picture.  My theme is a single word that might just apply to my role or it might apply to the entire game.

As long as I've offended someone I've won.  The mod counts too.

My submission contained a link to give the gist of the concept I was going for.

:v
I hate it when people ruin the game just for the(ir own) hilarity by sending in stupid roles which are overly-specified-but-without-the-charm-of-an-actual-concept-but-rather-a-mix-maxed-idea, and insulting Shakerag's Shakeragian Shakerag.
But also stuff that makes everything needlessly complicated.

Meaning I sent in Jack A T as my role and theme of judge judicial lawyer balance. :P
