Feh! So much for the wisdom of the self-proclaimed wisest man in town! I see the pearl is making you paranoid already, sir. I suggest locking it up, for the good of us all. No curse of the pearl compares to the darkness of men.

What about the Curse of the Black Pearl?

Let me take an ECCO GUESS at this setup: The pearl is some sort of activator for roles. It definitely has a downside. If you're a vanilla person, you probably don't want the pearl unless you feel like you need to stop scum from picking it up.

That is my setup theorycrafting for day 1.

ninja: I guess the pearl could also transform a vanilla into a non-vanilla. I take back what I said.

I should jump on you for setup spec chat, but since I tend to do it as well, it'd be pretty hypocritical of me.

After all the heat I took for massive setup spec chat in the Complete Bullshit game, I'm going to try not to do it so much.

Also, Keane is totally weirding me out. I don't know if he's scum, but I don't know what he's trying to do either.

You should give me the pearl, for I am the dock warden. Warden of the docks! If I have the pearl then I know it will be safe, as I will put it in my fishery logbook safe, where I keep track of all the fishing totals but tonnage.

Pierre would have wanted to give me the pearl, as he was my friend. Good bye, Pierre. You were a noble fisherman. poo poo bitch you caught loving sharks.

This all feels off to me. First, you straight up ask for the pearl and use a flavor claim as justification. Then you use a weird emotional appeal to seal the deal.

You certainly weren't Pierre's only friend and since most of us are fisherman, I'm sure we've all caught a shark or two in our lives.

I don't know if I trust SSV with the pearl, but I'm content to leave it in his hands for then moment. He can accept the responsibility and danger that goes along with it.

Are you the de facto mayor? Because we have some corruption to stealthily get away with.

I can see how you might think it was rolefishing if mayor was a role? I've never heard of it. I thought the corruption part gave away that it was a joke!

Well I don't know about mayor, but I've seen Ecco use a governor in his last game. Mayor and governor could be used interchangeably for the purposes of role naming.

You want me to engage in setup spec on D1? As much as I like setup spec, it's pretty baseless on D1 when there isn't any info available.

GUISSEPPE PIZZAPIE posted:

It's the only time you can acceptably do it in lieu of content

Yeah but D1 speculation is more likely to lead town in the wrong direction because there is nothing to base the speculation on.

The only thing I'd really speculate on during D1 is the likely number of scum based on the amount of players in the game. In this case, probably 3 or 4 scum and possibly an SK. But again, that's just a guess.

EXAKT Science posted:

Assuming just a scumteam, it's probably five scum. If there's an SK, then four. Of course, there's almost certainly ~weirdness~ happening, because Ecco game.

Yeah, this being an Ecco game means it's even harder to do D1 setup spec. I've never played one before, but I did read most of the Lady Clarent game from a month or so ago, so I know weirdness is a think in Ecco games.

Anything is likely to lead town in the wrong direction. We have zero information so the chances are we're lynching town today. It seems like you're trying to make excuses to avoid getting lynched for something that got you lynched in the past.


Sorry, I hear posts like these are pretty worthless

Actually, I didn't get lynched for it but I got a lot of frustrated people yelling at me for setup spec, so I'm a little hesitant to do it on D1 with no real info. If I'm alive in a few days I'll be more than happy to delve back into it with more info.

I don't think the LJ votes are good because she is new to this site. Sure, she has played Mafia before and seems to be well versed in searching for scum, but it also seems rude to not give her at least until D2 to find her footing within this community.

I doubt I would still be playing if everyone voted me out on D1 of my very first game. Now granted that was a little different cause I hadn't ever played Mafia before, but the principle is the same: give the new person a day before you really go all out on them (even if they are scum).
