Flabort:
Second off, this is less fishing then my usual style.
Oh yeah?
And you should know a little about me by now, rolefishing is my town signature *cough* I guess I'm not that well known, though.
So you're scum here, then? Good to know.
Another question for you, then, Toaster.
What is your favorite thing about this set-up? And what do you like most about lynching?
Probably the ability to abuse the system and pick my own power lineup. Eliminating suspects and seeing scum hang.
And the result is in. My random vote goes to...
Deathsword
You realize any value of your vote is completely gone if you just throw it around at random, right? This goes triple if you just tell everyone it's random. You'd have been better off not using it at all.
Varee:
So a general question, How do you guys pick who you are asking a certain question? is there like a pattern to it or you just asking randome people?
Never completely random. There's a reason behind every question, even if the reason is to see how you react to a question more than get the answer itself.
Toony: How is starting with a lot of points scummy?
@Toaster:
Toaster: action failure due to illegal self-targeting looks exactly the same as action failure due to blocking, except if you're circumspect.
Do you think any town players would choose mask swapping?
It's possible. Scum would also be hampered by a surprise mask switch, but it would be harder for a townie to effectively target.
4mask:
Everyone: What are your opinions of townies having kills? non-self cleanses? Gifts? gossip? vote-stealer?
Limited utility with the mask mechanic. Not criminal, but probably a waste of points. Less wasteful, especially if combined with magnetic. That one is scummy. Not scummy at all; better the vote be with someone you trust (yourself).
everyone: Do you believe that the masquerade element of the game is town-sided or scum-sided?
Which flaw do you think is the worst for it's cost?
Do you think that santa is a power more likely to be taken by town or scum?
How about bless?
Do you think that the deep south element of the game is town-sided or scum-sided?
Scum sided; I've addressed why. Mercenary; it's only use is that hilarious asshole combo with dense and changeling whatsisname pulled off last game. Tossup. Tossup. I'm not sure, and I'm curious to see.
Trying to figure out what is safe to claim?
Everyone: Based on Scripten's claimed and confirmed role, do you think that Scripten is town. Would it be worth it to try and cleanse him?
Leaning yes. Maybe. I answered this more to Jiouky below.
Scripten the Smurf: Why did you pick Virtuous?
If I'm not mistaken, scum are able to kill on day one, so I'm not sure what my potential stabbing has to do with it. It's also possible that, since most, if not all, of the specific information I know is out there in full view, I may not be as much of a threat to the scum team. After all, I can't exactly use powers against them.
Why would they kill the guy known to be powerless over unknown potential town powers?
Jiokuy:
Everyone: So what are the advantages to claiming masks?
Right now? None, unless you're scum. It'd be a terrible idea to claim masks COUGH TIRUIN
Tolyk, Tirun, Toony, and Toaster:In your opinion what are the chances that he's faking the lover to direct the scum-kill to Toaster?
I buy his claim, though it'd be clever of him to lie about who his lover his to direct the kill in another direction.
Why does your question here not consider the possibility that I am scum?
Everyone: Is it worth trying to "fix" Scripten with cleanses? I think we should leave the individual decisions to each healer to preserve anonymity, but everyone should be ale to weigh in on this debate. Is it worth it?
Only if there are no better cleanse targets, but it's a reasonable consideration. I have a medium town read on him right now.
Tiruin:
Also scum don't have a kill. Are you in the game, sir?
How do you know?
On Varee: First off, changeling and one shot? You're a sick son of a bitch, and I love it! Brilliant!
This man is clearly a master manipulator, and I am further convinced to never trust a word he says. In any case, my first instinct is to think him scum. The second is to think him town, because he
didn't take nonvoter. Scripten's a pure vanilla townie now, instead of a vanilla nonvoter (aka useless.) Instead of totally sabotaged, he's just powerless.
My final determination is to consider the whole business a null tell, because of the manipulator comment above. I could see fully plausible scum and town motivations for his move,
including claiming it. Lynching him straightaway is a waste since he has a revive, though.
Reverie:
Everyone: Do you consider a roleflip at this point to be more important than removing the ability for scum to find and take this Resurrect power later?
I don't think it's a good idea to lynch Varee just to eat the revive.
Everyone voting/suspecting 4mask: Why? All I see is arguments they're colluding because Varee asked 4mask about changeling, which to be some seriously circumstantial evidence.
