Editing posts is on a timer I think


Fair enough I guess, claiming is a pretty effective strategy for progressing a solve. I just really don't like anticlaim mechanics. I don't feel like I'm getting anywhere without claims progress.

I agree. Mods probably want to punish early claiming to keep people on their toes, but fake claims accomplish the same thing imo

Met an old gypsy woman who said and I quote "there is mustards in your future"
low risk prediction tbh


On the other hand, who tf are you to judge her prediction, she said mustards plural, and I only ever use one kind, she knew a big change was coming you scoff-twat

It's mustards


Met an old gypsy woman who said and I quote "there is mustards in your future" and this is literally the only thing she could've meant. the theme is mustards.


Which not only is that dumb (expected better of Savant) but he will make me Dijon.


Since I've had some alcoholic beverages at this function I am going to say yes, in fact, I will sign up, and not even as a backup, not even having been cajoled via DM, even if it is mustards (dumb) and even if I am Dijon (I hate)

I was actually a perma commuter lol. I just chose to CC Thoth cause it Ascetic is so similar and his Leprechaun claim was garbage

You didn't have a lot of great choices after Magic's vig, since Vader's activity was sporadic and wylted seems like he'd make for a frustratingly loose cannon scummate (or maybe not, just guessing), but Vader still seems like the better option, unless you were going for a "no one will suspect the newb" thing.


As peeved as I was with Mikal's recklessness at the time, I guess vigging Magic did at least keep a veteran out of scum's hands.

Me watching Mikal mine players gleefully for information despite an informed recruitment mechanic: "He's gotta be scum, no way he's so excited for the theme he doesn't care about strategy."


Mikal endgame: "So I was having so much fun with the theme I didn't really care about strategy..."

Who would have been lynched when she claimed beloved since thats usually SOP


It is? Oops lol. I thought that was only Miller Gravedigger and PGO.


I thought Mikal was pushing too hard for information from people from the getgo and even scumread him for it for all of DP1, so I wasn't gonna reveal more than I thought I had to.

Honestly I had the same weird feeling about Pie, his behavior has just felt different than from his last townie game. But I don't think he's dumb enough to CC knowing it would only win him a Pyrrhic victory (sort of) unless there are some mechanics at play that would mitigate the sacrifice to scum

Wryly
If you think I took Barbarossa from Shining, then I would logically use the role that was there. If it’s not Ascetic, I wouldn’t have said anything and just claimed what Shining had.


I did point this out already

Wryly

All right plenty of good points on the Pie side I'm being a dumbass. In my defense I am highly distracted. I'll reconsider.

Wryly
So what’s Pie’s incentive to CC’ing that claim then if he’s scum. The most he’s going to do is survive one extra DP and die. That literally does nothing. Thoth’s claim is weird but it’s not crazy.


Hm. Good point.

Wryly
So you’re buying that I killed you knowing full well that every protective role would be on you. Watchers would be on you, etc. And then Thoth moved the NK to Shining?


Plausible with a Strongman

Thoth's claim is too wild, I just can't fathom it as a sane fake claim. Pie's sounds more like a plausible fake claim he scavenged from Shining, but if it is he would have to be changing the role to Ascetic to implicate Thoth. Why not just claim Shining's original role? He'd be less sussed.
