I’m delighted it worked for a regular board game meetup. One of my goals with embedding rationalist lessons in games is to make them easy to export out of a rationalist meetup, so I’m glad it’s working! I am a little surprised that people didn’t want to bring up collusion- I would have expected Werewolf or Blood on the Clocktower or other social deception games to have raised the idea of traitors in ones midst. Wild musing, but I wonder if it’s significant that usually in social deception games most of the players are on Team Good, whereas this one if you have people working against you it’s the whole room.
It gives me the idea to make the evil, Robbers Cave version of this where you divide the Collective into two groups along some obvious split, and have them roll separately.
I like your questions! I hope you don’t mind, I went and added them to the suggested questions list. Tailoring the questions to the Lonesome sounds great and I encourage it, I just can’t tailor them in the document :D
. . . when I first read “what is the chubby bunny world record” I thought that would actually be straightforward; Guinness Book Of World Records keeps track of the heaviest rabbit.
Thank you for the feedback!
