I've been wondering this too. On the one hand it seems like sharing is going to help town more because scum can of course already share what they know, so town stands to gain more from the information. All the same I feel instinctively leery of revealing information on night actions and/or possible future actions this early in the game, maybe that's not appropriate in this game where all actions are one-shot. I'm also not sure whether sharing spice information helps or hinders scum in making fake claims.

It depends. If it is something like BP (Cumin) or a doc or an investigative role, absolutely share it. If it is something like a vig or a double vote, keep it to yourself IMO.
My plan is to buy as much of the unlabeled spice as I can carry and see what happens.

That's what it did in Cookfia 1 and drinkfia. There was a chart which 100 rolled a die against to determine the effect then. It was about 1/3 positive, 1/3 negative and 1/3 wacky in the past.

I picked up one of the Cinnamons. It's a power that I'm pretty happy with and I could see myself picking up again later on in the game. I'm not gonna reveal it till tomorrow though.

Remember that you can only use one spice per night, though!

I worded my PM to 100 something like this:
I would like to spend as many dollars on unlabeled spice as is possible. I would then like to use all I can either now or at the earliest possible moment.

Just posting this here for future reference because I didn't think to see how many of each spices were available N1.

Name- Cost.........Total amount left
Mint- 150..........................2
Pepper- 100......................2
Cilantro- 70.......................0
Saffron- 60........................3
Cumin- 60.........................1
Cinnamon - 50...................2
Brown Sugar- 50...............3
Molasses- 50....................3
Paprika- 40.......................5
Bay Leaves- 30.................4
All Spice- 30.....................4
Thyme- 30.........................5
Parsley-20.........................8
Unlabeled Spice- 10 .........9

Making some obvious assumptions about the starting numbers it looks like you are probably the only cinnamon haver, wall monitor. Presumably 2 people bought cumin, 2 or 3 cilantro (there were 80 points per player available so nobody bought pepper or mint), one each bought bay leaves and all spice and I guess 2 parsleys and at least 1 unlabeled spice? Maybe some thyme was bought too, I don't know.

I'm also down on EXAKT for that really bad vote on LUTR. I don't think LUTR's play has been great but it doesn't seem scummy to me. Not sure about the read on wall monitor, their play has been a bit odd but maybe that is just their style. Alasdair Crawfish has contributed more or less nothing to this game so far. Ernie's been pretty low key too and it feels sort of like AnonymousNarcotics is doing the bare minimum posting to appear involved.

I'm still going to be around between now and the deadline but for the moment I'm going to go with ##vote EXAKT

Puntification posted:

The other votes smack of early game over-eagerness to pounce on apparent scumminess (ignoring that it's d2 cos we didn't really do anything) that I think is probably town jumping at shadows, but you slipping in a vote on LUTR has a different feel to it. A scum feel ##vote eakt
