RNG decided that you're going to have a greater, but shorter impact on the game, which, if you do what a typical town or scum member would do in the situation, good and bad for the town, regardless if you're scum or town.

@_@
That's some specific RNG there. Err...where did the idea of the orange part come from?

The Empress. The High Priestess. Death.

What?

Turiun:  I'm rusty. RVS?  Oh, and BHK's excuse that he had to immediately claim was that so he wouldn't get in trouble if the RNG messed up... But he also admits that judgement plays a large role?  This is why asking pointy questions is useful right now, because his almost cagey excuses might not add up.

It's judgement because I can't predict the effect of what I do at all, so I could end up crippling a town member or massively empowering a scum member, and not even realize it. So I have to choose who I target with that in mind.

PPE : I need to pay attention to what I cut from posts.

I saw no mention of jail last night.

Relatively insane charging based on the quality of your own work seems pretentious. I don't hate Failbetter, but -

I'll place a book's value anywhere between $5 and $15 from some quick googling. 45 Fate, according to Failbetter, is worth $10. I haven't done any of these stories in FL, so I'll consider Flint worth 4 chapters, 45 Fate stories worth 2 chapters, and the rest at a single chapter. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Flint - 120 Fate.
Haunting at the Marsh-House, The Court of Cats, Lost in Reflections, The Last Dog Society, Cut with Moonlight, Discernment, Art of Murder, The Waltz That Moved The World - 45 Fate each.
The Gift, The Blemmigan Affair - 30 Fate.
A Trade in Souls, A Trade in Faces, The Rubbery Murders, A Long Lost Daughter - 25 Fate each.

If I added that correctly, that's 640 fate. Five Minutes to Midday will be 45 Fate if I don't subscribe this month, which would add 45, making a total of 695 Fate. 125 dollars.

28 chapters worth for 125 dollars, whereas I could buy more, singular stories but end up with more content altogether.

Interesting.

2. Well I'm against the TDS lynch-vote, obviously.  Turiun's vote was on NQT, and immediately on day 2 NQT voted Turiun, seemingly a little unduly defensive.  BHK did this funny claiming thing which he admitted was just to cover himself in case it backfired.  That's pretty suspicious.  Of course, town and mafia have incentive to do that, but he kinda feels like a safe lynch target

What incentive would I have to do so on day one? Why wouldn't I do so if I'm completely aware that my action is RNG based? The best I can do is warn the town beforehand so I don't end up dead over a potentially better suspect because I wanted to neglect to tell the town potentially important information to save my own hide later on. There is no benefit to keeping things to myself.

Oh come.  You also admitted that you had significant control of what happens as well. and the reason is to not put a target on your back, and therefore get killed anyways.  Of course, mafia doesn't have that concern.

1 - Extremely. My own judgement also plays a major role
-snip

Do you point the gun or do you pull the trigger?

1 - I have control over the sequence of what happens, not what actually happens. And attention isn't selective, if I'm attracting attention, the town is going to notice just as fast as the mafia.

2 - One target. Three outcomes chosen from eleven possibilities. I just point the gun. It's up to fate what kind of round I fired.

I really hope that the person who made the term "waifu" suffocated on his dakimakura.

Alright, everything is done. Accidentally replaced Post #120 with my response for the day, but I had multiple tabs of the thread open, so I have the screen there to show the original post, sans accidental and corrective edits. Then I realized I left a personal thing from my POV of the post in the image, so I blotted it out.

Now, as I originally meant to say before ruining everything, my action was a double-edged sword for my target, and do we have any significant information or leads?
