"That would be bad" is not a protection against what appears to be Unless you think there are 4 town violence specialists out of 12 townies

We have 3 claimed diplo, 4 claimed violence, 3 claimed tech, 3 claimed intelligence What do you think is an explanation for this

I'm reading/rereading AC's posts, and I feel like there's a lot of white noise in her Day 1. But honestly, if I'd been here from the start, I'd definitely have been feeling town on AC on D1. The comparison to Resistance and talk about the first challenge feel good on a gut read. From the point of my switch-in, it gets more hazy. There's more arguments, everything feels a bit more baseless. But reading the whole thread, with everything in context? Yeah, some of it's bad, but there's someone who's been much worse. Someone who made really lazy cases, who was also on the failed challenge... and who replaced out of literally every game they were in.  ##unvote Rules Question for Somber: If we vote to lynch Merk before the end of today, what happens, RE: finding or not finding a replacement? I'm wondering if we should just wait and hunt elsewhere, and see if dawn of D3 brings with it a Merk modkill. But that feels... like gaming the system? But so does voting someone who isn't here. So I'm kind of stuck. ##vote Merk until we figure out how this is working.

Yall are seriously dense on this. There are a great number of potential scum combinations in the failed situations. You acknowledge this and then fail to drag that over into the lynch candidates. If you're going to play spec on alignment, follow the logic that bears me out. If you want to "play mafia" look for posts and attitudes and behaviors that seem illogical or inconsistent Just loving do something other than hide behind a flimsy correlation that you acknowledge is so

How to play this game competently as scum: - rotate in and out to smokescreen failures - actively direct suspicion on people in multiple challenges - dismiss talk of stats and setup spec

Okay, I've been very busy at my career for the past two (2) days, and I've just barely glazed over what has happened during that time span. Apparently, people are claiming their numerical stats which seem to be this game format's form of role, so at this point, I'd like to ask why this type of role claiming is being done at this point in the game? Like I said, I have only perused the thread since I have been away from my career, so please do not take this as me playing dumb. I will have time later today to get a little more insight concerning the challenges and the numerical stats, so I may be able to solve this mystery on my own, but this still may take some discernible time.

Numerical stats were claimed to check progress of the challenge. What I'm asking for is a role name claim because in a game of 15 I've figured 4 groups have 3 towns each =12. Scum will be free agents, so any group claiming more than 3 has a scum.

I'm wondering if we should just wait and hunt elsewhere, and see if dawn of D3 brings with it a Merk modkill. But that feels... like gaming the system? But so does voting someone who isn't here. Hello! This is a fair question and something I should address. There is a distinct possibility that merk, Tastee, and possibly Meds will have to be modkilled. I will continue to beg people to replace in, but I do not imagine I will be able to fill all three spots. I understand this creates a gamespace that is difficult for all players to navigate, unfortunately I do not see any immediate way to address that issue. You may all vote these players as normal, whether or not you want to risk them being modkilled instead is the thread's collective choice. As to whether or not you are allowed to view the game this is based off, Quantum Leap by soru, that is your own prerogative. It is not a factor I could in any way police or enforce, so I leave the decision up to whether or not you want to put in that effort. I do not have the link on hand and do not feel particularly compelled to pull it up, but the setup documents were no longer available when I created this game. The lack of detailed information necessitated improvisation and a certain amount of variance in my design, so I do not feel that it is possible to out-and-out break the game. I don't generally like to talk in games that I am moderating as they are ongoing, but I feel like these two points merit clarification. Good luck and thanks for playing!

Crossover from Mafia Discussion Thread... This game was just unfortunately timed, I think. A lot of people are burning out on Mafia, many others (including myself) are getting a bit too busy for it, and there have been a bunch of non-traditional games recently so even if people are keen to play, they're getting a bit wacked out in the head trying to navigate each new game and its weirdo-awesome rules. I don't sign up for things I'm not willing or able to stick with through the end. Obviously, whatever happens with those three will have an impact on the game, so I'm just going to cool my heels until we know stuff about them and their roles one way or the other. Anyway, even if this game ends up being a bust, Somberbrero was very upfront about its experimental nature, and I really appreciate how the challenges have really driven early maneuvering and scumhunting. That's cool. ... okay screw that back to mafia

Once Poison Mushroom realizes she’s cornered, she leans back in her chair and lights a cigarette. She pauses a moment, before announcing “Yeah, nice guess guys. I’m with W.A.S.T.E. Good call, I really thought I might get away with it for a while there.” Everyone stares blankly at her, until someone speaks up. “That’s it? Aren’t you going to attack us or anything?” Poison Mushroom chuckles, “Why would I bother? Every one of you is already dead. You have no idea what’s coming next.” Without warning, as Poison goes to take another drag, she explodes. Apparently Cyprus was monitoring the situation room and decided enough was enough. Poison’s cigarette lands neatly on the table and goes out a few minutes later as the sun fades from the sky. Poison Mushrom, “Veldt,” W.A.S.T.E. Aligned Violence Specialist was killed day two! Night actions.

As you wake up and check the C.O.U.R.I.E.R. messaging interface, you are greeted with horrible news. Last night was a complete catastrophe for C.O.U.R.I.E.R., but you don’t have time to even begin contemplating your loss as urgent reports start flooding in from Egypt. merk, “Turing,” C.O.U.R.I.E.R. Aligned Tech Specialist died night two! Rarity, “Descartes,” C.O.U.R.I.E.R. Aligned Tech Specialist died night two! Mister Tastee, “Fifty-One,” C.O.U.R.I.E.R. Aligned Diplomacy Specialist was modkilled! Savahontas has replaced MEDS CURE SCHIZOS! Challenge #5 The fourteen pyramids of Abusir have risen up on great spindly metal legs, scuttling across the sands like spiders, while firing intricate patterns from the death-rays mounted on their pyramidion as they march towards civilization. It is awesome and terrifying, the signature of W.A.S.T.E.  This is a violence challenge. It will take 19 violence points to destroy the pyramids before they can do any real damage.

In that chart I'm not saying it's what they are, I'm saying it's what they claimed. Independent of any powers or characteristics, there are only X number of Town specialists in any given power. When X+1 appears, there is a scum there.
