Because I do feel it was obvious. You can disagree with that, but Thoth nearly figured it out.
Until you mentioned a photograph, I was thinking Governor, and my main qualm was that Bill Clinton would have fit better since he was the Governor of Arkansas before becoming President. I figured Helz might have missed that in #345 because Governor might not exist or be called something else in his Mafia background.
And I am retarded
On second thought, no, there could be harm in it
I think there's no harm in me claiming at this point except for the same reason as whiteflame, for the potential of counter-claiming or at least forcing scum to use a question. Could be wrong
Oh ok, so Martyr
Thank you Pie
Mayor = You can confirm yourself at any time?
Could you please clarify what you meant in #142 by your role misdirecting your connections with Epstein?

I do think there's value in keeping it hidden even now, but I'll admit that's become a whole lot less so since I was Vanillaized.
If it's what I think, the only possible value is from the off chance of a counter-claim. Notwithstanding that it would have been a better fit for another claimed character.
I'm about 50% confident that I know what role whiteflame is, but if he's lying then it's useless information, and if he's telling the truth there's no reason to out it.
I could claim my character since I don't think it would give away my role.
I consider investigatives to be more critical than Doctor, and I'm curious for your take on that.
I want to examine the possible scum teams assuming Mag1c is scum.
Again, I disagree with calling this game's time-budgeting system an instant-win mechanic. It's no different than day/night phases with separate clocks in that Mafia wins if town lets deadlines expire without lynching.
#136: I get the logic of claiming to be 1 of 2 things, but effectively vanilla or PGO strike me as a weird pair. Dunno why vanilla would go on that list except to claim something that won't be counter-claimed.
Re: #117, I built my Madoka Magica game on here over an alignment-changing mechanic, and I was astounded to learn that MU considers alignment changes bastard.
What is Prober?
I don't get all the talk around post #100 about Blackmailer + Vanillaizer being OP. It's not that OP if scum have nothing else. Wonky, but not OP
I should have checked whether or not that game had a Vanillaizer before posting that, but it did not.
I do prefer this supposed self-announce silencer (has to be Silencer at this point) over mod-announced because of the ambiguity over whether or not it’s real, and would like it to become the meta for Silencer around here.
My current feeling is that Magic is scum and faked the Blackmail knowing it seems to fit the theme split super well. It might be an early planned bus with Helz, but I doubt it. Could be worth looking to see if anyone’s reads echo the sort of sentiments Mag1c would give.
2x odd-night is such a weird restriction set. Like, does Savant expect the game to reach night 5? I don’t see a noobwolf claiming anything without scummate approval, though.
I arrive

That is imo an objectively scum sided mechanic. Which is not a bad thing. Just one I question with the claims given.
Normally, the punishment is that the day ends without a lynch, which obviously defaults to a scum victory if town keeps failing to pick someone before the deadline.
You said your character makes your role obvious. Only one role comes to mind as fitting DJT. I don't want to say it in case it's right, but it's not a perfect match.
I strongly disagree with Helz in #77 that the 7-day timeline is scum-sided. All games on here have a timeline. This one is just set up in a way that requires us to figure out how to budget our time.
