er, that's not true. you can say "if you do X, you're guaranteeing your loss" instead of "if you do X, you'll get reported"

other uses of the ogi rule: if someone is doing something reportable in a game, u can't just simply correct them in game, as is sensible, but instead have to then sit through an essentially broken game waiting to report it
i'll get back to you on it, probably in another thread or skype

pranay's two examples were dumb and i have illustrated why. the ogi rule basically forces someone with knowledge of a person from other games to lie about that knowledge/conceal it
it literally breeds mafia tells of the town alignment

When two players have played together a number of times, one player may pick up on certain styles and attitudes the other player has depending on his role. If PlayerA tends to be more talkative as a town-sided role, but quieter and less involved as a mafia-sided role, if PlayerB, who had played with PlayerA several times before, begun to pick up on this inconsistency, this would be considered metagaming.

answer my question quickly dave, so i can prove u wrong quickly and go do real life stuff
if a player genuinely believes a player is so dumb he should never be nightkilled or has other legitimate reasons, he should be able to say that
meta abuse is unnecessarily vague here, this is trust telling
more trust telling

like what?
deleteddeletedabout 11 years ago
yes, i too am swayed by the "we didn't know that playing literally every game together is against the rules also we totally only ever meta read each other" argument. it's a heart stealer.
outlining the difference between what people were condemning them for and the definition of meta abuse was the entire purpose of this thread. how difficult is that to comprehend
those were pranay's examples of meta abuse, people accused zwink and gerry of meta abuse.
I'm saying pranay's examples of meta abuse were really just honest meta.

It's not as flat-out cheating as rolesharing, at least it didn't use to be. Honest meta would be certain phrases or things 'I only do as x alignment'. Either way, it's in the same branch and should (doubt it will, all of a sudden) be incorporated one way or another.
