[vocal harness]

I haven't gotten mortician or the new detective yet

I've only played one game in the new update

[junior quail]

and sometimes it can even be someone doing a task and not noticing the body

[vocal harness]

I was sheriff accidently pressed kill and killed the vulture

[junior quail]

oof lucky

[vocal harness]

I just pressed kill on instinct

[junior quail]

..thinking about it, a duck often doesn't stay with the body. They will run away

[vocal harness]

In front of 5 people

And got voted out

[junior quail]

ducks claim sheriff often, so yeah that can be a bit difficult. but most ducks also don't kill in front of 5 people

[vocal harness]

I was running through a hall and pressed kill

Should've just said it was a morphing

[junior quail]

..i thought someone got killed in the mist and killed their 'attacker'

the one who died was a lover...

who's counterpart had just died

[mint meteor]

Unless they're a morphling.

[junior quail]

yup, unless then

morphling is fun to confuse others, but if they are geese with the real one at a whole different place.. XD

[mint meteor]

It's worse when you're morphed and you just happen to run into the real one. Especially if they're trying to chase you down...

[junior quail]

i morphed once and didn't get away in time

[vocal harness]

Has anyone tried running in unmorphed, killing, then morphing as you're leaving to make them think the morph ran out of time?

[hexed gulch]

yes have to make sure the person you have the sample of isn't in the room

[valid barn]

I have done that. They follow me, I morph, they vote them out. Now that morph is "dead", it makes it so much easier to frame people.

If someone tries that, it's best to vote out both players to guarentee a morph is gone, similarly to when 2 people blame each other.

[hexed plaza]

[vocal harness]

Favorite strategies for different roles/maps?

For me as falcon on Nexus Colony I usually kill on the right side, then kill in the shuttle, then move to the left

[dark pumice]

Just kill right off cooldown in larger maps like Goosechapel

[junior quail]

i had a strange game.. Kill happened, purple blamed orange(I believe), Orange didn't talk. So they got voted out. Next kill happened, this time purple blamed light blue who in the last round claimed mortican. Once again, no talking. Yeah..at that point i saw what was going on. Sadly enough the ducks still won

[gray vector]

I have one thing to say before I go...

||AmoGooSE||

[chrome orbit]

How many people are in the discord currently?

[olive delta]

30863

[chrome orbit]

god damn

70k more!

[dark pumice]

Looks like mine says 30,876

[chrome orbit]

I asked about 2 months ago about getting a cosmetic if a 100k people joined

[dark pumice]

Hm.

[chrome orbit]

still waiting

lmao

[dark pumice]

At the rate the Duckscord's growing, I wouldn't say that's improbable in the future.

[chrome orbit]

whats this bomb herbert? #lore message

don't want to @ but I'm highly wondering

[hallow gorge]

its a bomb

[chrome orbit]

what role would that be

HERBERT?

[hallow gorge]

its just a physical bomb

[short barn]

ka-boom

[chrome orbit]

which represents?

the boom boom goose?

[hallow gorge]

it represents bombs

[chrome orbit]

kamikaze?

but

[short barn]

that is a secret

[topaz nacelle]

KA-Bewm!

[chrome orbit]

confusion more than gravy goose in different languages

[short barn]

alex knows too much

[chrome orbit]

[topaz nacelle]

[chrome orbit]

[short barn]

faster.

[chrome orbit]

Let me vent

[short barn]

nah sorry

[chrome orbit]

lol

anyways I'm hoping one of the 2 roles with bombs from #850063497877913630 come back

[hallow gorge]

i'll level with you alex/perry

it represents a demolitionist of sorts

[chrome orbit]

of some sort?

[hallow gorge]

that isn't going to be very strong, but we hope will be very fun

its kind of a hot-potato duck

[chrome orbit]

i like that

oh

[keen beacon]

Hi

[chrome orbit]

1 sec im playing dodo

ill be back later

going to think about that info...

[hallow gorge]

have fun

[chrome orbit]

so a bad guy duck

[hallow gorge]

he plants bombs on people

and then they'll start ticking and they'll have to pass that bomb on before its too late

for better or worse, it also means that he might get a duck killed

[vocal harness]

Sounds fun tbh

[short barn]

Is-boom

[chrome orbit]

exploding radius?

or just the person hodling it

[short barn]

Enough to kill you

[chrome orbit]

if it explodes while you're in a vent

[short barn]

I don’t think it’s been decided yet, I’m sure anyone in close proximity though

[chrome orbit]

does the vent bust and doesn't work anymore?

[hallow gorge]

the vent still works

but they die in there

[chrome orbit]

aww

imagine a boom boom duck planting the bomb on a jailed person

they both die

[hallow gorge]

the bombs would hypothetically work like vampire infection

a variable timer

[chrome orbit]

oh ok

[vocal harness]

I would run screaming "I have a bomb" in like the last 5 seconds of the timer into a large group of people and just end the game

[chrome orbit]

lmao

itd be great if a role could defuse it

like mecanic or technician

like the bomb shows up as a sabotage and he can track down who has it

[hallow gorge]

no defusing

you can't ever defuse it

because if you could, then this duck would more or less never be able to actually kill

you need a certain kills/second

[chrome orbit]

can the boom boom duck vent?

[hallow gorge]

yes

[chrome orbit]

oh thats a good twist

I like it, Hyped for its arrival

[lyric marten]

So, if a meeting is called while it's ticking...?

[short barn]

It isn’t a fully fleshed out idea, no definitive answers for that to my knowledge

[chrome orbit]

idk

maybe he blows up

[lyric marten]

Mmm, fair. You'd either have to blow up the bird immediately, or pause the timer. Probably the former.

[mint meteor]

So not even in beta yet?

[lyric marten]

Because otherwise the one with the bomb gets to tell everyone.

[chrome orbit]

man I think if you're gonna die you shut up

and you pass it forward

[chrome orbit]

lets call it Boom Boom Duck until we get the name

[short barn]

Nope

Boom boom duck💃

[lyric marten]

I was refering to the victim.

[short barn]

That reminds me of the song from the Hannah Montana movie

[chrome orbit]

boom

[whole quarry]

oh my god

i just spent 10 whole seconds

[short barn]

Reciting the Hannah Montana movie right?

[whole quarry]

nope

[short barn]

😂

[lyric marten]

Also remember to turn off the @ when you do this if it's not important.

[whole quarry]

i just spent 10 whole seconds looking for the "Will" button,
You know.

the button in Town of salem.

The button not in GGD.

[chrome orbit]

hahah

[lyric marten]

[chrome orbit]

what do you mean?

[short barn]

What’s another social deduction game besides GGD? 🤔 never heard of such a thing

[lyric marten]

Look on the right end of the 'replying to' pop-up. You can turn off the ping.

(This is how you can reply to a staff member's comment without pinging them, because such pings would be against the rules.)

[narrow cedar]

I've only seen them complain about intentional pings not replies

[limber escarp]

i cant verify in SteelSeries

it redirects me to google

[chrome orbit]

same, weird thing

wait whats this steelseries thing

is there an outfit?

[rare cipher]

Check #816356997564727367 for all cosmetic drops. I think you missed this one

Can't wait for somebody to pass me a bomb. I'll just go pass it along to whoever I think is most sus

[chrome orbit]

aww

i wanted a new shirt

[rare cipher]

Look on the bright side, at least you don't have an account on a website you're never going to use.

[chrome orbit]

);

true

[hallow gorge]

it gets a few seconds of timer extension

[keen beacon]

hiya

[hallow gorge]

but you can't call meetings over and over to keep the person alive

nothing can prevent the death, or the duck will in the long term get nullified entirely

[chrome orbit]

uh

i redeemed a steelseries code

does that mean I did it or no?

I tried it to be sure i did miss it

[rare cipher]

Restart the game and find out I guess

[chrome orbit]

It was probably a stream giveaway

[topaz nacelle]

If you got a code and redeemed on the Gaggle site you probably got it

[chrome orbit]

oh no i have it

i just checked

got the cool hat!

I'm one of the steelboys now

it fits so well with my perry hat

[topaz nacelle]

[rare cipher]

Okay, so the campaign still works

[chrome orbit]

i don't know for how long

but that's great

[rare cipher]

You keep the hat forever

[chrome orbit]

yeah but the campaign

can't be forever too

[rare cipher]

What about the jacket, did you get that too?

[chrome orbit]

yup

the lil jacket with my hat makes me look rad

assuming rad is a good thing

which I have doubts

[rare cipher]

Rad suit keeps you alive near scientists.... Wrong game

[chrome orbit]

oh

I get the wordplay

[uneven raft]

hello

[rare cipher]

My jokes are kinda rusty

[stone oyster]

[whole quarry]

pet the ~~duck ~~ goose

[chrome orbit]

what happens when you make Vigilante a vegetable?

Veggielante

thank you

[topaz nacelle]

[chrome orbit]

i just did a 2 round 5 body vulture

fun

[narrow cedar]

try a 1 round 16 player pigeon win while killing roles aren't killing

[chrome orbit]

No

I enjoy the win I had

Do the little glasses from the APOTHECARY death stinger exist as an item?

Apart from the classy duck skin

[narrow cedar]

Why say no? you can enjoy both lmao

[chrome orbit]

I'm saying I'm proud of my win and saying I can do better is crazy

[narrow cedar]

Did I say that? No. I merely mentioned another fun win way, but oh well.

[chrome orbit]

what

Mate you're an odd fella

[narrow cedar]

You don't even know me lol. I guess you can't take a challenge suggestion. You be you... I'll be as odd as I want to be. 😄

[chrome orbit]

Why are you trying to act smart

Let's be civil

[halcyon lotus]

I am going to throw anime into the ocean

[chrome orbit]

i will shove-

lol

thanks joe, tension released

[narrow cedar]

I am so confused, did my challenge upset you?

[chrome orbit]

Yeah

It felt a little annoying considering I was proud of my achievement

[narrow cedar]

I merely commented with a challenge, don't take text here so personally. Nothing at all was harmful in what I put.

[tall hazel]

Rule 3

RESPECT your other Geese (or Ducks)!

[chrome orbit]

true d20

[junior quail]

welp...it was fun with the lore questions. don't get why my question was too bad...

any change i could get back in somewhere in the future?

[analog steppe]

What was your question? Its possible someone already asked it and it was answered

[junior quail]

if humans did exist, i checked but didnt see it. maybe i accidently read over it?

[narrow cedar]

@junior quail its been answered

#lore message

[junior quail]

oh ok. Any change i can see the channel with the next round after this one ended? like in a few months?

[analog steppe]

That's a Herbert question but as far as I know I think if you ask in General to get back in they might remove you from this channel too 🙂

[junior quail]

well it was fun..but if this is how it goes here i'm just gonna stay with playing the game

[vocal harness]

I'm scared to ask questions in the lore question channel

[whole quarry]

dont worry, i've been hit by that chat-ban hammer as well

[vocal harness]

I've asked one

[whole quarry]

asked about the mimic goose

[vocal harness]

I used to be scared to speak in any discord servers

[tall surge]

Cineva roman?????

[whole quarry]

honestly i dont see how geese just mistake splats [of blood] as jam

[naive urchin]

played for the first time tonight, had fun! @kindred arrow been trying to get me here for a while haha

[whole quarry]

like if their is a massive jam puddle anywhere

im telling everybody i know as soon as possible

[topaz nacelle]

We're glad you're here!

[whole quarry]

but what do i know?
im not a geese and / or a duck,
or a falcon, vulture, dodo, pigeon, etc. etc.

[junior quail]

found another server, gonna join that one and i'll see whatever happens with the game.

[gusty tangle]

Welcome to the flock!

[hallow gorge]

thats definitely the effect im going for

[gusty tangle]

There's one obvious lore question to ask, but no one has asked yet. I'm going to give it a few more days before I drop it myself.

[chrome orbit]

Um

I mean there's

[topaz nacelle]

I'm ready for the Gaggle Cinematic Universe

[chrome orbit]

Where is the water from the kicked out animation?

[short barn]

I'm also scared to ask questions it's okay

[narrow cedar]

90% of the time they aren't lore questions but game mechanics so I can see why its strict

[topaz nacelle]

When someone is voted out? In Manor you're tossed into the pond. In Goosechapel you're thrown off the docks.

[chrome orbit]

Think about it

In manor

That pond is too small for a body

[topaz nacelle]

Small circumference, but VERY deep

[chrome orbit]

Wouldn't we eventually fish someone out?

[topaz nacelle]

I fish skulls out all the time!

[chrome orbit]

Oh god you're right

But another question is, why have I not gotten the 10 card swipe fail yet

[gusty tangle]

It actually has an underground channel that pours out into the river, which goes directly to the ocean. Sometimes stuff gets stuck along the way.

[chrome orbit]

Ah

[gusty tangle]

Because you're too good at swiping.

[chrome orbit]

I've done 6!

But it's way too hard

[gusty tangle]

Be less good!

[chrome orbit]

I got the Written out of the script achievement yesterday

In 3-4 months of playing

Never happened to me

[dark pumice]

Something I've found when I got the achievement is to fail a few times, call a meeting/body, then continue it, die, and then finish it.

Very unlikely, but it worked-

[chrome orbit]

would that increase my odds or suppersitions?

[dark pumice]

Both.

[chrome orbit]

Un pepene

I'll try that

[vocal harness]

What's the written out of the script achievement

[chrome orbit]

secret

[vocal harness]

One of the hidden ones?

[whole quarry]

quickly, i must say this fast, the way to get that achievement is to, in the Moth-
BANG

[vocal harness]

Hmmm...

I think that means mothergoose 2

I need to find another hostage

[mint meteor]

#908691001923756052 ?

I'll just put it this try: trying to get the Written Out Of the Script achievement SUCKS.

[pine hazel]

Play with friends and set it up. Boom. Cheesy, but it works.

[chrome orbit]

It's not that hard

Just be unlucky

[mint meteor]

For written out of the script? No, it takes conscious effort on someone else's part.

If you mean the card, then yeah, just break a mirror, have a black cat cross your path, and walk under a ladder. That should be enough bad luck for scanning.

[chrome orbit]

i mean i got it first time i entered that room

[topaz nacelle]

@teal harness drop codes in #lfg-english-over18 or your preferred channel. I can't delete your code out of #lorequestions lol

[analog steppe]

Wow they left the server. I've never have had someone take me that seriously.

[upbeat flume]

lmao

[narrow cedar]

you don't remember the guy who wanted a refund for buying GGD --- a free game

[rare cipher]

That guy got his refund, every penny

He spent nothing, so he got nothing, that's how a refund works, unless you're CD projekt red. Then people expect you to give them their money back AND let them keep the game

[modest moth]

everyone in our lobby just got a client timeout, anyone else?everyone in our lobby just got a client timeout, anyone else?

[sick oak]

yea same

[dark pumice]

Everybody in our lobby also dc'd

And we keep dc'ing

Err-

Restart isn't helping too

[mint meteor]

I got kicked out, too. Might be a server thing, then?

[dark pumice]

Most or if I dare say so, every server is down

[wary tide]

I think server brokedy broke broke

Whelp time for.... Amogus.... this cursed word

[topaz nacelle]

Ewww

[wary tide]

Joking

[dark pumice]

Judgment time has come for you today.

[wary tide]

Oh noes

[dark pumice]

And I'm the judge.

[topaz nacelle]

Ehh, it's okay if you're playing with good friends. I don't enjoy the game anymore, but rather spending time gaming with friends.

[wary tide]

Didnt realize that was a bad question to ask

Ill leave troubleshooting to the devs then

[dark pumice]

I suppose

[hexed cargo]

is something going on with goose right noe

now

[dark pumice]

Yep

[hexed cargo]

it not letting us play

[exotic wind]

Anyone having issues with lobbies closing

[dark pumice]

Servers are down

[topaz nacelle]

What question did you ask?

[hexed cargo]

ah ok thank you we will try to play later then

[wary tide]

I asked if people where using ATT. It may have been cause I @lilac loom too many people

Was curious if it was an ATT issue or not

[dark pumice]

Whose Ed?

[modest moth]

whatever servers phas and ggd use share a common link because phas servers went down too

[wary tide]

apparently actually someone

[dark pumice]

Why did you ping Ed? Lol

[wary tide]

didnt mean too

[topaz nacelle]

Ah someone must have sniped it before I saw it.

[wary tide]

ment to say @.ed

Like asked

But ed

If that makes sense

[dark pumice]

I understand, but lol

Ed's gonna get a random ping from GGD from a player he never met

[wary tide]

I think it was because I pinged like 6 people in that message. May have auto removed because of that. It was literally near instant

[wary tide]

too late to fix it now already pinged

I can't even create a lobby lol

[dark pumice]

Well, now that servers are down, I'll be watching the screen repeatedly telling me "Client Timeout"

Wait I can play again-

@wary tide, make a lobby.

[wary tide]

I cant

[dark pumice]

I can

[wary tide]

It wont let me

[dark pumice]

Restart your client then, because I can

[daring comet]

i've restarted twice and my lobby never lasts more than a couple minutes

[chilly garnet]

so the game is having server issues? i thought it was just me

[dark pumice]

Yep, the entire game is down, but not for me!

[sturdy terrace]

ok. we have been having problems also

[dark pumice]

I restarted my game, and my client works fine now.

[sturdy terrace]

I restarted but no one can join me. they get kicked

[rare cipher]

Give the game time. The worst thing you can do during server troubles is try to login all at once, it'd effectively the same as a DDOS

[chrome orbit]

the gsme is down?

[daring comet]

I finally convinced my friends to try it tonight 😭 been working on them for months

[rare cipher]

It appears some servers are having troubles, yes

[chrome orbit]

ah

[analog steppe]

Looks like a bunch of game servers went down.

[chrome orbit]

are they based on location?

[analog steppe]

Not just ours.

[chrome orbit]

oh crap

[dark pumice]

A lot of servers are down right now

[chrome orbit]

hosted in europe or no?

[severe jasper]

aw

[dark pumice]

But mine works fine now-

[chrome orbit]

i remember my friends server that burned down overnight

didn't have a backup so he lost it all

that kinda sucked

[severe jasper]

I am getting yelled at because I promised all this fun!!!

LOL

[rare cipher]

Tell them the yelling IS the fun

[analog steppe]

This isn't us, this is an entire game services network: right now India, Europe, US east, and Canada East all went down.

[severe jasper]

<---VexedMum friend

[dark pumice]

Frost got his client to work again, so we'll post a code for those who aren't down

[analog steppe]

Hundreds of games are affected, we just got notice

[severe jasper]

I agree, They are having fun making fun of me

[chrome orbit]

aww god

a massive ddos attack then?

[severe jasper]

They are telling me I DID IT

[wary tide]

Who the heck is the host

[severe jasper]

Its all my fault! HAHAHA

[rare cipher]

Probably just a power glitch or similar

[wild cape]

That's hot

[wary tide]

Yo looks like even steam is broken now too

[dark pumice]

Oh

[analog steppe]

Yeah this is a massive internet outtage, just getting the information.

[chrome orbit]

wait till discord is down

[rare cipher]

Oh in that case maybe it's the transatlantic link

[dark pumice]

Hm

[wary tide]

Internet outage? Who the heck spans multiple continents

[chrome orbit]

wish I had a clue what that meant

[dark pumice]

I have the sudden urge to blame Xizta

[chrome orbit]

Me as well

once again

[analog steppe]

@gusty tangle's fault

[chrome orbit]

it's all xiztas fault

[rare cipher]

If you meant what I mentioned, it's a literal under ocean cable that carries the internet between continents

[dark pumice]

It is Xizta's fault

[vocal harness]

Why though

[chrome orbit]

Really? God that's kinda wild

[analog steppe]

So it looks like a series of DNS routes went offline, I'm trying to trace route where some of the issues went.

[chrome orbit]

Maybe someone shut down the internet the remove the winning award of ggd better with friends on steam

just sayin-

[topaz nacelle]

So you're saying the internet is not a big truck, it's a series of tubes?

[chrome orbit]

I thought it was spiderman

learn stuff everyday

[rare cipher]

The internet is a cesspool of negativity

[dark pumice]

So what your saying is that was a mimic, and not a duck?

[analog steppe]

Currently - India, Canada East, Europe, Russia, and US East are experiencing issues

These are intermittent

[chrome orbit]

so the thai players are fine?

lol

[analog steppe]

If you have friends not in the regions have them host the game and you may be able to continue playing.

[vocal harness]

I have no friends

[analog steppe]

Thai connects to our SG servers so yes.

[chrome orbit]

ah

[vocal harness]

My tooth hurts

Not in a pain hurt but an annoying hurt

I've seen like three different people typing and no one has said anything

[serene tusk]

Moo

[keen beacon]

meow

[vocal harness]

Honk

[analog steppe]

They got hit harder than us 😦

[serene tusk]

ouch

[keen beacon]

:(

[ripe jay]

guys, server's always shutting down (disconnected). How fix dat?

[chrome orbit]

my friends obby worked!

were playing now

[severe jasper]

So ....your saying there is a chance

[chrome orbit]

yup

canadians too

[keen beacon]

but goose deaths grew from 100 000 avr per day to 160 000

[chrome orbit]

so it should work

[analog steppe]

@ripe jay literally there are tons of internet outtages affecting Steam and other games right now

This is outside of our control

[chilly garnet]

im in indonesia, does that connect to SG?

[analog steppe]

@chilly garnet either there or AUS

depending on your speed

[chilly garnet]

okie, thankies for the info

[serene tusk]

@analog steppe I hear ya......I'm an IT guy and understand

[vocal harness]

I think a duck is messing with the internet

[analog steppe]

Let's not spread rumors while we try to get information out to players about the state of the internet/servers

[vocal harness]

"Silence"

[analog steppe]

Current status, yellow means you will have trouble connecting/staying connected in these regions

[sharp meadow]

what do the grey lines mean?

[ripe gazelle]

outage reports probably.

[sharp meadow]

oohhh i c i c

[analog steppe]

Updated

[keen beacon]

shawn...

not tryin to be annoying....

hehehe...

but

[hexed gulch]

one by line messages are annoying

Deafy please

[tall hazel]

When will we get the next roles/maps/feature/cool stuff?

As soon as it's ready! The gaggle team develop quickly, and we release patches fairly often. We don't often give out firm dates because it's either going to be a lie if we're wrong, or it'll be a rushed product that might sacrifice quality for speed. This could translate into releasing something without sufficient testing and creating lots of bugs for the game.

If you find none of that explanation sufficient, as Herbert always says, today we are one day closer than yesterday.

[rare cipher]

1.06 will be released before 1.07

[analog steppe]

Not after

[topaz nacelle]

We're one day closer than we were yesterday

[keen beacon]

oh, alr! thanks for da info!

[sharp meadow]

XD

[rare cipher]

In fact, I'm 95% sure 1.06 will come after 1.05

[keen beacon]

im jus kidding, ur doing great and let it take the time because you're releasing updates pretty often.

[rare cipher]

The other 5% is because xizta might change it

[halcyon lotus]

I can't wait for them to release update 3.0 for goose goose duck

[keen beacon]

u are wrong! Its going to be released after 1.05.02!

or 1.05.03...

welp, who knows :)

[analog steppe]

1.05.03 is next patch

Deafy is right

[keen beacon]

oh damn

uh

yay???

[halcyon lotus]

How do games decide what numbers to put for the updates?

[keen beacon]

[analog steppe]

dice

[halcyon lotus]

Like I understand 1.05 and 1.06, but 1.06.37?

[keen beacon]

[halcyon lotus]

At some point it'll just be my ip address

[keen beacon]

hyped for 1.05.69

[keen beacon]

[vocal harness]

Next thing you know 1.07097056753

[halcyon lotus]

Dude don't leak my phone number like that

[keen beacon]

and one more question?

[analog steppe]

Current Update, Most of the server issues across EU and RU have been resolved, it appears that only Canada East and India are offline:

If you're in the NE of USA you may be connecting to Canada East

[keen beacon]

and nah, its not a silly question lol

how to get da role "duck"

been lookin in every channel

[hexed gulch]

if you would read #rules when you entered

busted

shame on you

[keen beacon]

[analog steppe]

I made you a duck because you didn't read the rules.

[keen beacon]

lol, i did read the rules

[analog steppe]

Let's not do exposed videos, thats for a different website.

[halcyon lotus]

Uh

[keen beacon]

but not in the channel rules

on the welcome page

[halcyon lotus]

I guess I'll just have to settle for a funny moments compilation #385

[keen beacon]

or what it is

i did read that

never knew u had to go to the channel rules

lol

[analog steppe]

Update

[keen beacon]

btw rule #12 is the most important one. thanks for letting everyone know!

[ripe gazelle]

o .o

[halcyon lotus]

Imagine getting banned for rick rolling

[keen beacon]

[analog steppe]

it happens.

Almost 31k members

As I understand it, the numbers are release, major, minor, representing the changes made in the update.

Server outages help increase our number significantly in exchange for negative Steam reviews.

[vocal harness]

I used to have trouble saying goose goose duck when I heard of this game, now I have trouble saying duck duck goose

[analog steppe]

Our goal is to change an entire generation of people from knowing Goose Goose Duck every existed and change the name forever.

This is all we actually care about.

Duck duck goose-

A lofty goal, but a good one.

hey

so

[short barn]

hi

[sturdy terrace]

I'm playing with some midwesterners and we have been good and theres two of us who are canadian

[chrome orbit]

someone just voted post assasin

how does that work

[short barn]

you can vote after the assassin shoots

it doesn't mean voting time ended

you just can't assassin shoot after voting ends

[narrow cedar]

assassin shoots during "voting time", it doesn't end voting time -- they can also shoot regardless of if they voted -- just if everyone votes before they pull it off it'll waste a shot (if they are actively trying to choose a role on someone)

[chrome orbit]

i mean

the dead guy voted

he got killed and voted after

[analog steppe]

Update

[chrome orbit]

great

got an explanation for the thing shawn?

[narrow cedar]

outages

[analog steppe]

It's not our services that are having trouble so I would simply guess someone spilled coffee on the server.

[chrome orbit]

Oh my god I'm so unclear

Someone voted after being assasin killed

[narrow cedar]

its fun when its the ATT servers

[chrome orbit]

Is that normal?

[narrow cedar]

they already voted before they were shot

[chrome orbit]

No

I have the screenshot

The voting icon is on top of the bullet hole

[narrow cedar]

it probably triggered the skip on end of voting

[modest shore]

hi

[chrome orbit]

I doubt it, he killed before the end

[short barn]

so close to 31k

[chrome orbit]

Yeah!

Road to 100k

Then I get that shirt...

[analog steppe]

The vote button is on the center of the card, the bullet is on the player.

[chrome orbit]

What do you mean

The vote icon was on top of the bullet hole

ill just send a screeny

[analog steppe]

They are not in the same spot

[chrome orbit]

how can i be clear

#📷︱photo-gallery

[analog steppe]

The voted and then disconnected

they didn't get shot

[chrome orbit]

they did

[analog steppe]

The bullet is over their face

They voted (then they got shot?), and like a sore loser they got disconnected.

[chrome orbit]

no it happened in order, they got shot then it triggered either voting or disconnection

they got shot before

i am so confused

[narrow cedar]

its better with something like that to have video and submit it in bugs

[chrome orbit]

i might have a clip

[keen beacon]

@graceful heart send it

[chrome orbit]

someone was streaming

[keen beacon]

wait how does one get image perms here?

make it into a gif so u can send it maybe?

[graceful heart]

ok so we were playing a game and i said to fart attack the server host and someone said it sounded like a bad teenage band name so i made a band cover for it LMAO

[chrome orbit]

[keen beacon]

not such a long story

[chrome orbit]

cool story

[keen beacon]

thanks for explaining paandi 🙏

[graceful heart]

i guess we get to enjoy the band cover ourselves smh

[analog steppe]

I am happy to announce the problems in both India and Canada East have been resolved.

You may proceed to play uninterrupted we hope.

[chilly garnet]

[lone cypress]

[upbeat flume]

Yay

Canadian goose now exist

[lone cypress]

🇨🇦

[analog steppe]

We're sorry about the inconvenience. As a countermeasure to this we will spin the WHEEL OF TERMINATION tomorrow where one random lucky staff will be laid off as punishment. (Even though it had nothing to do with our servers). We hope the sacrifice goes well and we want to wish someone on the Art Team a farewell.

[topaz nacelle]

[lone cypress]

Wait, are we not blaming Xizta for this?

[chrome orbit]

He's the one getting the wheel

[lone cypress]

I suppose he also has nothing to do with the servers

[chrome orbit]

if its the french translator I'm taking that spot faster than I can

[analog steppe]

We only put art team members on the wheel.

Everyone knows the pecking order at Gaggle

[chrome orbit]

ah

is xizta doing art now?

[analog steppe]

Game Designers & Developers

The Chipmunk that runs across my deck every day.
The Dropbox Server we use
The Art Team

in order

[chrome orbit]

ah

[narrow cedar]

then shawn

[chrome orbit]

so you're saying

we're better than the art team?

[narrow cedar]

😛 j/k I mean MG1

[chrome orbit]

and the translators aren't even on the list

[topaz nacelle]

Presumably the translators ARE players

[narrow cedar]

Is it bad I read that as Popo from DBZ abridged

[chrome orbit]

yeah but that's applicable to everyone innit?

[upbeat flume]

love it when you’re lover goose/duck and your lover instantly gets killed

[analog steppe]

I didn't even put HR on there.

Everyone taking it so seriously... we don't have a pecking order 🙂

[chrome orbit]

at least not a public one...

lmao

[upbeat flume]

[analog steppe]

No there is no pecking order, everyone at Gaggle pulls their weight.

We have a very loose hierarchy, your role is ultimately based on your skills/ability.

[chrome orbit]

cool

[analog steppe]

Think of it as more of a Ferris-wheel with the customers in the middle.

[upbeat flume]

Explain why I always get the normal goose role then

[tall hazel]

It feels like the same people have been getting the same roles over and over, how come it isn't random?

The entire process is random, but it's very human to interpret patterns where there are none. If you had encountered a bug about the role assignment, it would be more likely to be an issue if it the results were absolute - For example, no player ever getting the Assassin in any of their games, or someone 100% of the time getting the Birdwatcher.
Players are also notoriously prone to exaggerate, and might interpret someone getting vampire three games in a row to being ten times in a row.
In short, the role randomization isn't bugged, your brain is bugged.

PS: I was asked to rewrite this and to also up the tone of hostility level from 2/10 to 9/10. Have fun playing GGD!

[hexed gulch]

if that chipmunk gets let go morale is tanking

[analog steppe]

I know

[chrome orbit]

hes such a good artist

[upbeat flume]

that was supposed to be a joke but this is nice ig

[analog steppe]

I'm worried it will be the chipmunk instead of @twilit yarrow

[hexed gulch]

The tales of the chipmunk is what keeps us all going

[narrow cedar]

Chris, have you seen Angelum... wait thats not the name, its like a brazilian film? 'Nobody's Looking'

angels are given humans to watch over but its like a bingo machine being operated by a hamster in a wheel

[hexed gulch]

Im going to go with I have not

[analog steppe]

You should ask Chris about the time he drank 1kg of mustard and then did a chug boat competition in his underwear when it was minus 20 outside.

You're talking to a man of class here....

[chrome orbit]

is that canon now?

[upbeat flume]

thats a lot of mustard

[analog steppe]

Low in calories

[narrow cedar]

Who hasn't done that?

[hexed gulch]

https://tenor.com/view/class-wedding-crashers-vince-vaughn-classy-classclassclass-gif-12879297

[analog steppe]

Not me, I don't believe in underwear

[hexed gulch]

it was minus 20 out and didn't want to go against the TOS of life and end up on a list

[upbeat flume]

Why call them pants when you can call them overwear

[chrome orbit]

darwin awards

[analog steppe]

I just wear smaller shorts under my bigger shorts

They have pictures of Mayweather on them

You could call them... "Boxer Shorts"

https://tenor.com/view/micdrop-jonstewart-gif-5956199

[chrome orbit]

I don't understand the names of underwear in english

briefs

trunks

boxers

[analog steppe]

[chrome orbit]

then they combined them

[analog steppe]

No I lied, 2

it's 2 QoL

[chrome orbit]

this is so weird

[hexed gulch]

[chrome orbit]

downdate?

[short barn]

hey bud...

[topaz nacelle]

Imagine losing a spelling bee because you misspelled misspelled

[short barn]

lmaooo

[analog steppe]

Imagine entering a spelling bee?

[chrome orbit]

imagine being a quebecer

[analog steppe]

^^^ No thanks

[short barn]

imagine not being forced to be in the spelling bee

[chrome orbit]

and having perfect english grammar because of it hehehe

I don't know how

but I make rare errors

[analog steppe]

Id rather be from Newfoundland and not speak any language properly than think about being from QC

[chrome orbit]

without having any clue of english rules

[narrow cedar]

I lost a best friend during a spelling bee in middle school - he collapsed while we were in the back of the room and I never saw him again - true story

[chrome orbit]

Your spelling was that bad?

[narrow cedar]

I don't know if he passed or if he survived

And since I just caught up, I'm surprised that chipmunk ranks above the Dropbox! How is he more important than the backup files?

Death is a promise always kept,we exist by chance-a Series of die rolls , cards drawn from a deck of cards, god is a gambler not a chess player a common misconception actually, in a life of uncertainty we all know this the clock is ticking - it will not tick forever ,when the reaper arrives, he will be early/late/right on time when he arrives You will try , desperately , try to bargain with him - do not bargain , death is a promise , not a deal , when the timer reaches zero , WILL YOU HAVE DONE ENOUGH.

Hello from Tuesday.

[proud zinc]

Ok I asked something dumb because I was tired and I apologise for my question

[chrome orbit]

In lore questions?

[proud zinc]

No

I asked “have u ever considered a mobile release” when clearly they have. I even have the app

But seriously there was a Fowl Play mode which obviously got put on hold and possibly even dropped

[chrome orbit]

Wasn't fowl play trick or treat?

That's what I tought

[halcyon lotus]

They didn't drop it

[gray vector]

but fowl play is just free for all

[halcyon lotus]

You don't know what it is until they release it

I remember hearing that there was still a social deduction aspect

[chrome orbit]

Finding what it is is social deduction itself innit?

[upbeat flume]

Just deduction

[valid barn]

Fowl Play was not ToT. ToT is a limited time mode, while Fowl Play will be permanent when it comes out.

My theory is that it will have more of a First Class Trouble feel, with finding clues as you do tasks and progressively eliminating players as the game goes on; I have no idea, though.

[short barn]

No they are different

And it isn’t dropped

[ripe gazelle]

The only thing that is dropped is my sanity for waking up at 7am.

[analog steppe]

Fowlplay is working, it's going to come out. We couldn't release it until we improved our code.

We wanted to make sure the game was as stable as possible first :) Every patch we released helped us get one step closer.

[chrome orbit]

I got an afk dodo win yesterday

I was standing there and a morphling blamed me

I was defending myself until I remembered I was the dodo

Unanimous agreement of my guilt

[obtuse torrent]

hey

who's ready 4 yuletide

[chrome orbit]

for what now?

[vague fjord]

i was playing the new version detective... but died at first....

Still not able to find out the rules of the detective.... Can I check every round before the meeting? Or during the meeting

[analog steppe]

#live-birds

[vague fjord]

i read it already.... but still confused about the "each round thing". Is it just waiting for the cd to use the skills? or each time during the mission? or during the meeting?

[hexed gulch]

"Round" is the time between meetings
For example, if you use detective before the first meeting, first meeting is called, when the meeting ends you get the ability back However, so does the death on the killers hands

[vague fjord]

so only 1 goose i can detect during the 1 round?

[hexed gulch]

So detective can detect 1 person per round to figure out if they killed during that round

rather than the old, can detect 1 person per game

change in strategy for sure

[vague fjord]

Got it! Thanks

[chrome orbit]

When is the founder out?

I don't wanna miss it

[hexed gulch]

Could be later today, could be tomorrow, tried to give the heads up over the weekend

The team at Gaggle would like to throw their feathers into the ring as a contender for this years Steam Award for the Better with friends category!

We're asking for YOUR help to get Goose Goose Duck Nominated for the Steam Awards.
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1568590/view/3124931281646485601

Goose Goose Duck started off as a simple idea of creating an enjoyable social deduction game and has grown into an amazing community driven game. Lots of friends have been made along the way, many geese have been slain. You can either fly solo but we think its better with friends, those new friendships need to be tested... repeatedly.

To all our supporters and members of the community, Thank you.

I'm guessing a bunch of other people just got vented from servers?

You discovered the best way to play dodo. Don't be obvious (or just have somebody blame you)

[prisma shoal]

I think AWS might have just shit the bed for some stuff, we couldn't get into AU for a scheduled game at 7pm UK time, and now we just get slammed here as well

[rare cipher]

There were widespread server troubles about 16 hours ago. Might be happening again?

[novel flume]

A lot of people just crashed

[wide yew]

And some info from stuff?

[analog steppe]

Yes widespread server issues still

Canada East was taken offline and is rerouting to US-E

Anything with a yellow exclamation means problems

We suspect this might be a higher level DDOS attack at a service provider.

This will affect multiple games

[whole quarry]

thats not a checkmark

[rare cipher]

Poor Canada East are still off-line. Wow

[whole quarry]

checkmarks normally mean like marked, or good

[short barn]

I wonder what they’re doing in the VC’s 👀

[rare cipher]

Probably talking about duck duck goose

[short barn]

Oh I don’t speak that language 😞

[analog steppe]

It usually means affirmed

For instance, you could have a checkmark next to "IS BELOW AVERAGE IQ" ✅

this isn't good

but it is a checkmark
