Convert: Leave it as-is. Since scum have to choose between killing and converting, I don't see too much of an issue with it being overly strong. A half-convert will also be unfun for anyone who is converted and has their wincon changed over and over.

Sap/Recycle: I'd recommend simply raising the cost of them to make Recycle/Day-Sap roles very costly to make. Doing so as a scum team would be a valid strategy, but it would be very unlikely for one person be able to do it single-handedly.

Fortune Teller: Give it a delay of a day. Town will get an idea of what powers there are without it hurting the scum too much. Alternatively, split it into power, auto, and flaw fortune tellers, all for the current cost.

All worthwhile suggestions.  Hmm.

Oh! What did people think of the writing? Witty or eye-glaze-worthy?

I liked the constant ties to the absurd events in the thread.

4 - Power Cop (learn all powers of target)
4 - Virtue-Cop (learn all auto/upgrades of target)
4 - Flaw Cop (learn all flaws of the target)
I don't think anybody would ever take Virtue or Flaw Cop over Power Cop, since powers are much more important to the game.

Same for this:
Alternatively, split it into power, auto, and flaw fortune tellers, all for the current cost.

On another topic, was it a terrible move to not bus Mastahcheese and somebody else?

Flaw Cop lets you hunt for Miller in its current incarnation.

That said, I'd nix both of them and just keep Power Cop, especially if you follow my suggestion of miller/scum-only 1 point flaw.

Edits in what way? Making them even cheaper? In my proposal, I've costed them at 2 points apiece which seems eminently reasonable.

Redact that. Just my random thoughts on the matter--didn't put in the giant list it could be varied.

...Though I didn't get Jim's one reference to how Convert = Return of the Jedi. xD

Edit: On Leafsnail's note in deadchat regarding Fortune Teller, I'm thinking more of Meph's Paranormal Exterminator Intel. Ramp up the points needed to get it and balance it out. 4 points? Too easy. A townie could do an early detection system using it. Couple that with an IAC hit...

Hardcore should...technically be hardcore. All benevolent abilities made for aiding you, fail, on you.

What other beneficial abilities are there? Bless, Gift and Santa now have a flaw associated.

So they had a convert, which would be the Death Star in this analogy, but they lost it when Deathsword/Persus13 was lynched. So they bought convert again, which is analogous to the Empire building the second Death Star.
