Miner, you couldn't lynch me even if you were an adult.

Jarizok is an unusual player. I don't actually think him expressing that idea is all that indicative of his alignment in either direction. However, I wanted to see how he would respond to some pushback.

I'm not keen on the first line of this post.

You shut up, that was quality humor >_>
Vaimes, serious question. What the hell are you doing?
owner, also serious question. In post #43, did you think there was an Oracle in the game or not? Also why were you suspicious of Vaimes at this time?

owner · Jul 11, 2017

dichotomousCreator said: ↑

That was the joke, yes :V

(I doubt Vaimes would say something like that if there even was Oracle in the list)

Uh, the fact there ISN'T an oracle makes me hate this. It's like reflexively doubtcasting to the point of not even verifying the reason to need to doubtcast exists. Lynch: owner

Alright, let me know what in here is stupid and wrong pls:

- Holy roles: I think Bishop wants to announce their info as soon as they get it, Priest...claims with one scum check? Acolyte obviously exposes fake priestclaims if they happen and backs up the Priest if they're not believed, but note Acolyte is still useful even if the Priest dies and no fakeclaim occurs because the Inquisitor can townfirm you and/or scum Inquisitor can be baited into killing essentially a vanilla.
- Gravedigger/Undertaker: Most likely don't say anything about your info unless 1) you're about to get lynched, 2) town asks something like "GD, claim if player X was scum", or 3) there's a really bad assumption you know is false that is ruining like everyone's worldbuilding. I have a couple thoughts about how to handle a lynch/CC of these roles, but I am unsure if saying it is -EV in case they're scum or it tells scum how to CC them? Any opinions on this?
- Peeping Tom: Last game I played with this they were advised to save as an extra Judge shot. In this roleset...I don't think there's as much of a slam dunk. Maybe peeping the GD/UT on a night with vital flip information to allow that info to get out without them claiming? Risk there is the GD/UT is scum and you're killed to cover up future lies, and since it's their night info about your flip doesn't get out to expose them (note if you peek scum and they don't like this, they can kill you in response)
- Pagan: I have no clue how to use this role, honestly. You can't announce it in advance because then any demons just haunt off the desired kill targets, so I guess take your best guess?
- Assassin: Activate to kill roleclaimed players town wants dead. There's other stuff that's -EV to mention unless it happens, so I won't, but think about other possible applications of your role.
- Hunter: You may end up directed i.e. "if so-and-so survives the lynch, shoot them in the night". If you're triggered by someone surviving a nightkill instead this is basically a one-shot vigilante kill. You CAN hold your fire, so keep that in mind if you're REALLY not confident you have a good shot.
- Dirty Old Bastard: Claim this as you get lynched so town can direct you. If you're killed in the night, similar advice to Hunter.
- Loose Cannon: Same as DOB if you're getting lynched. Loose Cannon can't generally save the town from overrun, but if you survive to an endgame with just you and a scum then you can win the game for town I think? If you're mad and want to activate on someone, PLEASE at least ask them to claim so you don't end up accidentally running over the Bishop just before Halftime.
- Fortuneteller: Your effectiveness is probably already determined. Report in if your info contradicts a claim, or worldbuilding is assuming things that you know are false.
- Spiritualist: Your info will probably be requested if it is needed. Otherwise just keep quiet.
- Inquisitor: Try to find holy players. Keep quiet about any you find, try to steer lynches away from them but not in a way that links back to them if your role is revealed to scum. Check any holy claims immediately, and falsify anyone fakeclaiming a holy role. Back a Bishop halftime claim if you know it to be true, since that's basically a slam dunk win.
- Ranger: Pretty much just a vig shot. See Hunter night advice. Play conservatively to survive to Halftime if you can, though.
- Conspirator: You'll know if one of your known roles claims that they're town, and on top of that you know that the roles the Agents have are town. This can be important if e.g. the Gravedigger being town is important. Try to survive to Halftime to get your extra life, naturally.
- Butcher: Basically the same as Ranger in terms of actions. Don't think trying to hit scum!Conspirator is likely to be possible, and it's not like there's many sources of survival in this setup.
- Zealot: Back up the Bishop's claim if you both survive that long. Falsify any holy fakeclaims that might appear. Overall, similar to Inquisitor.

also I'm guessing we don't fuck around with the agent/little witch dynamic to avoid giving info to scum when they're deciding?

You seem stiff.

This shouldn't take long. I'll knock you out. Strap you to a machine and either have someone tickle you or stretch you out so that you become at least more flexible in the long run.

But all in all, you are stiff so more so likely a witch.

I mean I get that is easy to poke a pry at, but come on, you should be better at this.

Or do I expect to much out of you?

Rubicon --- Post #42, but same question I just asked owner

Rubicon · Jul 11, 2017

Vaimes spewed owner town.

Miner · Jul 11, 2017

If Vaimes doesn't get lynched today because of you dC I'm tunneling you into oblivion.

TIA

owner · Jul 11, 2017

lynch rubicon

Always a witch.

Here's the TLDR for roles: Don't claim outside of exceptional circumstance. If you're getting lynched, we don't care about your role unless you're Holy, the DOB or the LC.

Why always a witch?

I'm town. It's hard for me to believe as well. I keep thinking I should do something manipulative and then catching myself.

I think I might end up giving you a pass today.

It's a weird thought though.

No, if I'm Mistress to anyone, it would be Jan cause he started it.

I've only ever seen rubicon be a witch, therefore all rubicons are witches.

okay you can't ALL be scum but there's more shade here than a SunSmart convention ._.
Rubicon, if Jari is trying to appear consistent as you suggest, why is he expressing that sentiment in the thread?
Miner, I think you're looking funny at Fluffy/Vaimes/tom/Rubicon now??? If you had to focus on two of these (assuming Vaimes is the first one), who would you single out?
his fluffiness, if Rubicon is throwing shade as scum, why is he making it as subtle as that?

Stump: The Trump

ok seriously though how serious is this post. The tom bit sounds serious but the rest of it seems, er, not anchored in reality...

Wait, when did I claim Rubicon was scum?

Your defense of him is noted though.

I'm sorry, people are allowed to claim Priest, but I can't claim witch? Isn't that a little racist?

Go read RWBY mafia and then decide if you want me to loosen up my play or not ._.

And the number of people who think they have 100% anything reads needs to take a step back. That kind of arrogance leads to confbias'ing and feelsbads.
