    We're both at work, but she'll create an account tonight and ask for obs here.
    If you can give her some basic info on the game as she watches (like a mentor) that'd be awesome. ^^
    Thanks.

    Guys, keep the politics talk to a minimum. I don't care for sticking my nose in that. We're here to play mafia and nothing else. If you don't impact my game, I won't give a fuck. I'm Switzerland.

    PMs are going out in the order of signups. Do not confirm in thread. All scum PMs are NOT going out at the same time.

    In case it's an issue, I know Snowvon. We'll be pretending the game doesn't exist irl until it ends or both of us are dead.

    We take the game's integrity very seriously.

    I believe you, just pointing out this setup has arguably more involvement post-death on some levels

    If we're both dead town or dead scum, I intend to ask Titus for permission to communicate outside of the dead town or scum qt. If she says no, then we won't.

    Riley, obs granted.

    Citrus, thanks for the disclosure.

    There is no universal dead town or dead scum QT. Players are not told upon death as to alignment Fonti. So request denied. If this was a normal game, all dead players would be in obs and it would be no problem.

    That being said, I'm thrilled your friend is playing and I appreciate the disclosure.

    The mod is doing taxes, hence the delay.

    Is there a separate qt for each the Status Protector, Agents of the Dead, Vengeful Ghost and Guardian Angels then? For example, the rules imply that there is only one Status Protector, and it is controlled by two dead townies. They'd need some form of communication to decide on a target for that ability.

    Additionally, the distribution of abilities to dead townies should serve to out scum and townfirm most of the dead townies through communication with the Spirit Talker.

    ---------- Post automerged at 05:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 PM ----------

    Oh, my bad. I assumed the Spirit Tracker and Spirit Talker were two different roles. I'm guessing they're actually the same role?

    ---------- Post automerged at 05:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:25 PM ----------

    Mmm, that shifts the balance of this game solidly in scum's favor.

    ---------- Post automerged at 05:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:26 PM ----------

    ...

    What is the point of the Kidnapper role beyond potentially hurting the scum team if the last scum decides to kill the targeted player? I mean, why give scum a roleblock if there's only one obscure town role to roleblock?

    Am I missing some nuance to this ability?

    "Jail and neighborize them at night"

    Like everyone who's ever jailed eventually shares a chat, or who exactly is neighborized?

    Spirit Talker and Tracker are the same role. Derp. Yes, all dead town players who have the same role share a QT.

    Fonti, the existance of a scum jailkeeper can be used to neighborize an obvious townie to mindfuck them, especially because it can execute.

    Also check your PM box.

    Citrus, anyone who is jailed shares a chat while they are in jail. After they are out of jail, they have no more nightchat. This is much like how I was in Jail in Brass Tax. The town version has the ability you faked.

    So dead players can talk to living players via jail? I don't get who is able to talk to who with jail + kidnapping.

    Oh, ok. (So, hypothetically, if snowvon and I where to have the same dead townie role, would we be allowed to talk irl?)

    But the scum version can't execute? Also, scum will never jail the last scum, because that would stop the night kill.

    Again, this motivates the scum to not jail anyone.

    Fonti, I would allow you and Snowvon to talk in IRL/through skype if you somehow had access to the same QT. All I'd ask is that you put a summary in the QT for the observers and the mod.

    The scum are much more motivated in the early game to jail than the late game. The scum jailkeeper serves to misdirect the town as to lynch targets, misdirect the town as to how many dead town or scum are alive and to scare townies. I debated giving the scum version a non-lylo kill as well but figured it would be OP.

    Clarification: It takes 2 in a jail to talk to each other. How can 2 players reside in jail if only 1 player can be jailed per night and it ends upon the next day? Or is it if kidnappers + psychotic jailors both jail?

    Yes.

    Samuel and Samantha (Dead Townies) jail Adam Alive. They can talk throughout the night. Adam Alive cannot be killed.

    Sara (Dead Scum) jails Adam Alive. Adam and Sara can talk throughout the night. Adam Alive cannot be killed.

    At day, the chat goes away.

    Separate Jails. They end at the start of the next day. Much like how I was in Brass Tax.
