EP, do you have a current read of MS?
Yes.
Referencing other posts on this page. What type of post is that Elephant Parade? They ask, you say, and not much else?
I don't want to explain my read on MS because that would make it easier for scum!MS to be townread. I'll say that I read him as town, and I'll explain once he posts more, whether or not I change my mind.

EP, do you have a current read of MS?
Yes.

33
Unvote; Max seems pretty convinced Tric is town, and this is a one-scum game, so...

34
OK, thank you. I'm glad you were willing to immediately nail yourself down when asked.

35
Not voting Evil doesn't help town either, cause we can't win the game. If someone has knowledge they shouldn't day 1, that is reason to be suspisous. Unlike most games, there is only 1 scum here. So we can't check for teams.
This is true. I just disagree that Quarque has displayed that knowledge.

How about a question to Elephant.
1: If you had a redirect, who would you target and why?
2: If you had a protect, who would you protect?
3: If you had an empowerment, who would you use it on and when?
1. I would redirect Quarque (who seems marginally most likely to me to be NKed as of this post; I don't have any strong townreads yet) to you
2. Quarque
3. Whoever I had a strong townread on as soon as the read formed

@Webadict: Sofanthiel hasn't been online since the 7th; could you prod them on Discord?
Well, that probably won't help this particular game, as sofanthiel is not a Player, but if you find it necessary for me to do so, I still probably won't.
Blame CM, not me :v

I know this is within Tric's meta but he could be faking it and, quite frankly, he needs to develop a better one.
Elephant Parade, Tric faking it is not impossible but seems unlikely. Trying to educate him by voting him out won't work and unfortunately helps any other demon. Who else could it be?
It doesn't seem particularly unlikely to me. I haven't seen him fake it yet, but I've never played a game where he was scum (though there was that one scum!Tric Discord game where he indeed didn't fake it). As for who else it could be: literally anyone except me, we're three pages into the game. I don't really like MS guessing I'm the Chosen One because it seems like a strong scum move (if I am, he can go "look, my reads were good"; if I'm not, he can go "I was just generating discussion/muddying the waters for scum"). I can see how he would genuinely arrive at that conclusion, though, and I'm not going to scumread him when he's only posted twice.

I don't have an opinion on the debacle surrounding you other than that Tric is silly, which is unfortunate given that it contains most of the non-RVS content of the thread (hence my lack of real reads).

You should probably explain to Tric why you questioned CM's claim of being "Town."

MS: Do you actually think I'm the Chosen One?

36
TricMagic: I still don't understand why you think Quarque has prophecy knowledge. Could you re-explain?

37
Pretty much everything TricMagic has posted has been egregiously silly. His logic for Quarque being the Chosen One doesn't make sense. His logic for lynching Called Shot targets doesn't make sense (a Called Shot is only somewhat stronger than a regular mafiakill, being both unblockable and untrackable, so a player being a probable Called Shot target should only be a minor factor in whether we lynch them; if we lynch a player because they're Called Shot-eligible, we're essentially doing scum's job for them). Going through with a lynch on the Chosen One makes no sense because they can self-out (in fairness, Tric might have missed that).

I know this is within Tric's meta but he could be faking it and, quite frankly, he needs to develop a better one.

Everyone else: Was the above rvs question useful?
Before Imp answered, my prediction was, "As useful as any other." I think that was borne out.

I don't understand why we would ever execute the Chosen One. Per the OP, they can self-out as conftown:

Reveal allows the Chosen One to publicly reveal their Role.
{1AP} (Day) Reveal I:  Reveal yourself as the Chosen One.  You gain two additional votes.
{1AP} (Day) Reveal 0:  Reveal yourself as the Chosen One.  You gain three additional votes.

Elephant Parade: If you had a roleblock, how often would you use it?
Barring more urgent things to spend AP on, I would probably use it every night. It isn't as good at clearing people in a game where action failure is silent and multiple actions are performed per night, but it still does its basic job of preventing sussy people from doing stuff.

TricMagic: Do you prefer semi-open setups or BYORs?

Crystallizedmire: You've been both town and scum. Which do youprefer?

Maximum Spin: Out of respect for your beliefs, I will not ask you an RVS question. This is a placeholder.

In scum hands, Broaden could let scum end the game at what would otherwise be MYLO. Is that desirable?

V1.1 lets me use my idea, so it works for me.

It would be cool if Slow and Mutation were adjacent, or at least closer, to allow for growth-type roles. Also, I just had an idea for a role that would've worked perfectly with the old grid, grr.

Literally just post less. Post only the top 10% most important content and let the rest sit.
