Flabort:Everyone: Anyone willing to bet on the scum team this time around?
On their victory? No, not really.
Supernatural in the past has had three different flavors of scum teams. Werewolves (Regular Mafia), Vampires (cult), and Cult (Regular Mafia with some perks). Each has appeared in two games so far.
I like to speculate what the scum team will be. Last Supernatural I predicted that the scum team would be Cult flavor, and I happened to be right. I was wondering who would be willing to hazard a guess, as those guesses could provide me with information (albeit WIFOMy information) once the scum team is revealed.
JackPersus13: Huh?
See above response to flabort.
Also, scum might let slip the scumteam type by repeated insistence that it can't be that.
How will you tell the difference between legitimate questioning of the scumteam type and scummy false insistence?
If it seems overdone or they get really worked about a small thing, although context and whether or not the player already seems scummy are also factors I'll have to include in my judgements.
ToasterToaster: What are your thoughts on the Devil/Demon SK roles?
They're very different. The Devil is a true outsider, and doesn't care at all about scum/town interplay beyond reasoning who is likely to accept his deals. He also departs when his wincon is fulfilled and allows the game to continue.
The Demon's just a SK, with all the expected effects on the game.
Would you rather be a Demon or a Devil? What has your favorite role (that you played) been from the past Supernatural games you've played?
Persus: Let's say you are an Oracle, and can see what faction a player belongs to. You inspect someone N1 and get a result that's never been seen in a Super game so far. Would you claim it?
Yes, unless they claimed Miller at the start of the game. Then I'd wait a day to get more info before claiming. If I got a new result, they're still probably scum or third party.
Toonyman:@Persus13:
Everyone: Anyone willing to bet on the scum team this time around?
I bet it's a cult with something random thrown in.
flavor cult or converter cult?
Imperial Guardsman:Imperial Guardsman: Why would I specifically ask you? Why not, say, ask Tiruin about her most feared third party type?
It just seems suspicious to avoid asking about thirds IN A SETUP THAT HAS A STUPIDLY HIGH CHANCE OF THIRDS
How is that suspicious? Half of the players probably haven't mentioned third parties in their questions.
You and Jack's conversation is making me wonder if you just skimmed the thread looking for something scummy to attack someone on. I find that scummy.
Notquitethere:Notquitethere: What do you think about the Priest role in Supernatural games. If you were a priest, how would you play differently from Supernatural 6?
I'd be tempted to resurrect early like before, as I'm always worried about dying before I get to use my powers, but maybe I'd wait and resurrect someone who was competent and had a useful role this time. How would you treat a Priest role?
Probably the similar to the way you mentioned, although I'd be worried about the resurrection going wrong. Solifuge managed to get a third-party win because of a bad rez in S4? or one of those games.
Ottofar:Persus
Ottofar: Has any Supernatural game had a sorcerer? If you could choose a role, what would you pick?
Not as far as I recall, could be mistaken though. Why don't you go check yourself?
I didn't want to trawl through 150+ pages to find out, and was hoping someone with more Supernatural experience would know.

I think it is important that everyone talks, but not that I talk to everyone.
4mask: What's the scummiest thing you've seen so far?
Hmm... nothing really stands out right now
Well of course nothing's going to stand out if you don't press people. I'd like to see you talk with everyone so when you flip scum I can better root out your scum mates. Read the thread and use your imagination: what's the scummiest thing?
This bullshit here. NQT knows damn well that I don't like Day one, but he tries to get me to talk anyway. On top of that, he makes the assumption that I am scum, and it is a long leap from ignoring one question to being confirmed scum.
You're getting really mad at a D1 pressure vote? That is scummy.
Also, just because you don't like D1 doesn't mean you shouldn't talk. I don't like D1 all that much, but I tend to try and get as much information as possible out of it. Not talking in Day 1 doesn't solve the problem of no information, it just makes it worse. If everyone didn't talk D1, it would basically cause D2 to be a D1.
You forgot to link the game you personally ran in which I did basically nothing day 1 and then found the converter through process of elimination the following day. And as I am quite busy right now doing other things, no, I won't ask questions at the moment. Perhaps later today.
Yeah, but CYOM was extremely focused on roles and logic then just scumhunting. This game has some focus on roles and role powers, but the focus remains on scumhunting. Most mass-claims in this game type are usually D3 or D4, so process of elimination won't really work for you until then or later, assuming you aren't dead by then.
