Starver:Are you willing to claim what your action was supposed to do?
I keep saying no, not as it currently stands. Implicitly and explicitly.
Latest example, abbreviated:
My original action and original wincon, as Town, is something I can't believe is intrinsically harmful to Town win, if used correctly, but could be misaimed. If the wrong person learnt of it and tried to turn my action to their benevit under the guise of providing sage fellow-Townie advice.
[…]
I could reveal more about my basic role, but I feel I ought to see if any of the above means anything to anyone else, first. e.g. are you the person that selected the judicious line-up, for Uninformed Townie reasons? If that's the kind of thing you'd want to reveal, I would definitely reciprocate with more detail, but if nobody wants to (for legitimate or selfish reasons) then I won't let loose the personal information that I think would help entirely the wrong person. And risk being seen as a villain and a cad, for all that. Risk lynching, even, though that would remove my skill. Better unused than misused, I think.
(How perverse that when I have an easy lie ready to cover my Mafia ass, nobody even asks. But when I am Town and I don't
want to lie, or say anything at all, nobody stops asking. Random Lie -> "I'm a blocker, I was blocking Darryl Cricket by serving an injuction on him, not trusting the Mod to use an NPC in a neutral manner, but he died before I got there." Happy?
Or maybe I'm an investigator and I was just watching his apartment. No, wait, I was posing as a plumber to bug his phone to discover his contacts. Or I was there to pass him a gun (ironically a 1-shot), perhaps he shot himself with it. Or I was supposed to drive him somewhere, in my taxi. Perhaps I was the lead investigator, which is why I got the plaintiff gig. He was my client, as Attorney At Law and I'm now required to resolve his death due to a codicil in his will. I'm a Jehovah's Witness. I did not actually visit him, but I had overcoat stolen by an individual identifying themselves as a Mr T. B. Fish, esquire. My 'True Reveal' ability is a 1-shot skill and I don't want to waste it on deconfirming a blatent lie, I demand EP tells the truth. ...so, so easy. No, nothing after that arrow is true.)
