Welcoming new players, and raping welcoming back the old ones, itt continuing the RP Game threads. It's largely classic D&D 3.5e, but only as a baseline of rules and details and such. With every session something gets tweaked, added, pissed on, or thrown out the fucking window. We're right now introducing a new character, so anyone interested is welcome to follow along.

I had hoped that presenting players with relatively clear and obvious challenges (which would become increasingly more difficult and vague over time) would allow players to grow together in a sense, as well as giving a venue to interact on a level which positively excites all 4 essential brain chemicals (Endorphins, Dopamine, Seratonin, and Oxytocin), for both immediate and long-term benefit, which is something that I personally am lacking practice and experience with. More specific to context, I offered players all the means to build whatever fucking items they wanted, virtually unlimited resources (if they asked the right questions), and limitless room to grow and develop things however they desired.
On a personal note, I looked forward every day to driving myself to the brink of mental/physical exhaustion just to add whatever touches or artefacts or what have you just to make it even the slightest bit more compelling, in hopes that among other things a developing fascination and enthusiasm might spread to other parts of the board.
Metaphysically, this game was supposed to be a microscopic venue in which players take control and authority over the game, which transitions into their own lives and circumstances. Allegorically, it was to allow players the chance to voodoo against forces and individuals outside their ability to combat or oppose, Soros being the very least of what I had hope to script. (still more)

I'm trying not to be salty about it, so I'll just say it.
Trump, you're a bit of a tyrant. Tracy, you're a bit of a narcissist. Infernius, you're a bit too eager to please. Torcuil, you're a bit too aloof. Me? I'm a sociopath. We all have our faults, and I hoped we might be able to address them, subconsciously if not consciously. I won't go on at length about how things 'should' have gone, but I will say I would rather end the game now than watch it descend into an increasing degree of vitriol over fucking make-believe. Remember, we're essentially playing with dolls here, no matter how attached or detached we as individuals are to our characters. I am particularly disappointed in how at the verge of including new players, increasing threats of stabbing whoever or cutting one another's parts off (even if it IS fictional) lead inevitably to threats of banning people outright. I'm astonished that this is how individuals who are among a group that freely and openly touts that Friendship is Magic are willing to feel justified in such activity. And that's without putting in manipulative shit designed to induce an emotional response, which I am better than average at, and MORE than prepared to do.

So, let me put it to you all this way:
Is it possible that Tracy - stabbing whoever or whatever she wants - could "just happen" to not want to stab, steal from, outright lie to, or otherwise malign the party?
Is it possible that Trump - responding to his particular idiosyncrasies and proclivities - might be a little more lax about demanding compliance from his allies?
Is it possible that Torcuil - in still being the 'cave dweller' that he was/is - might be willing to magic some assertive resolutions to the situation without walking away? You DO know that you're essentially the most powerful character in the game, aside from Thez who - spoiler alert - was going to be a character who regresses in experience and ability?
Is it possible that Infernius,... ah I don't have much against him; I haven't figured out if its bias or not yet.
Basically, my overall rhetorical question is this: is it worth it to continue playing, if everyone is going to end up tearing each-other apart?

I've already come this far, might as well get it all out
Thez and I - and the fact that I can express that without shame, guilt, misgivings, or whatever - love you guys. Its not romantic, but there is a degree of intimacy. Trump IS fearless, upstanding, and resolute. Torcuil IS reasonable, considerate, and brilliantly creative. Infernius "I'nis!" IS a paragon of generosity and selflessness. Tracy IS an archetypal lone-wolf, yet contributive, and often surprisingly social. Your characters - and though them you - have re-ignited aspects of MYSELF that were quite literally deadened. As pissed as I was earlier, I'll keep these threads going as long as there are players willing to play.

That's my problem though. I feel like this whole experience has fed into and made worse my paranoia - and it's a problem I've never had IRL. It's also fed into megalomania by making an arms race necessary, and megalomania is a problem I have IRL. I'm not sure if I am growing or degenerating

Do you not realize that I've intentionally made sure to only give her powers that your character is resistant/immune to (I make her decisions with math, so it's annoying to me if she sees opportunities? She's a field monster: you could knock her out in just 1-2 hits with Smite Evil (It's the safe word! I've been hinting at this for weeks now. Remember it!)

It's not so easy as it sounds (you try to create your own math system to emulate a psychotic mindset). The system as created to abdicate control and make the game more interesting. I reserve one rotating day per week for pure faggot-driven banter.
Also, if I changed it or tried to predict where it will come out as, it wouldn't really be a yandere plot, would it? An essential part to a yandere story is the unpredictable potential violence.

I'm sorry, but if your character can't stop prying needlessly on whims he shouldn't have with his level of knowledge, don't expect me not to be sneaky about things; I still intent to play an evil character.

Nigger, I scored high on the LSAT. I can do basic logic. If Tracy disappears exactly at the moment the unicorn is being talked about, that means Tracy is going for the unicorn, or at least the odds are high enough to merit spending time on it. Same with who took the thing, and so on and so forth. I have been limiting knowledge

May I suggest that Tracy interpret Trump's inquisitiveness as genuine interest rather than prying? Given Tracy's interest in him, wouldn't his questions be interpreted as concern and/or growing devotion? Rather than respond defensively, might she instead respond with intrigue?

The system itself is created to regulate decay and become increasingly chaotic: it was originally developed for this purpose. The detachment matrix slows the process, but relies on the character focusing on other thought-lines to obscure obsession: in this case, that thought being the arrival of the new most important being in the world.

"Maybe this will help," Lenos says with a strange multi-button rod in his hands.
He points it at the party, and not dissimilar to the Frog Swarm, a stampede of adorable kittens shoots forth from the tip, covering everyone in adorable little buzzes with big eyes and cute little ears. The whole place is now filled with the sound of "Mew"s.
