Yeah, sound advice. I'll wear tough clothes though. And I'm not really sure how I'm supposed to play it.
About the looly-pooly: the way I read the game, there are some bits in there about not being sure of what's been really established. Like the Butcher can lie, right?
So the Butcher can fake establishing something and then, counting on the fact that the fighters will think it is, turn the situation around and play gotcha, right ?
I feel like there's something in there about the, hrm, limits? Borders? Of the looly-pooly. Like not what it is and what it can do straightforwardly, but what you can obtain by toying with it, subverting it in a way.
About the SM thing.As a Butcher, I can lie to you, establish false things, get you when you fall for them, be all around brutal with your characters and (optimally) the game's fun nonetheless! You'd want me to be that brutal! You'd feel cheated if I wasn't! It makes me feel like the game needs a safeword :D
This makes GP go "Not "Nonetheless", "because of it""
