Meinberg we are TD bros, so if you tell me if you are scum or town I won't shoot you again. You have to admit, that "he's not picking up on town vibes" post should have gotten you straight executed.

SirSamVimes posted:Alright. I can't detect someone's alignment, but I can detect... well, pretty much everything else. All I'll say is that TheNinthLayer was telling the truth about his specialisation being at range (although I personally would have probably allocated his stats differently), and also he's Livireen. So I'd say that makes him trustworthy. What specifically is it about what you can detect that confirms him in your mind?

Hopefully with me not LARPing this weekend, I should be able to be more useful to town on D2. I mean, maybe. If I wasn't terrible at Mafia.

I don't really see how either could confirm anything, but you would have a better idea than I would so I'll roll with it.

A scum who requests to be in the backline would probably have melee capabilities to cause sabotage. A ranged person can not even hit friendly targets, and his sole melee ability deals 1 damage (lol). Also, Livireen is one of the Qal cultures.

EccoRaven posted:- During Battle, if a scum-aligned player has a MELEE ability, they may use it only on THEIR OWN rank. A scum-aligned player with a RANGE ability may use it only on the rank directly ahead of them.

I know that people outside CAN be outside of their team's cultures, but that's not likely. However, I didn't realise that part about ranged abilities on scum. Regardless, with his skills he could have built for a strike against his fellow ranged targets but he didn't.

WeLandedOnTheMoon! posted:Please explain to me the difference? My power is repeatable. I'll shoot someone tomorrow as well. The trade off to being open about it on day one (putting me in danger of being stunned) as opposed to doing what you are saying is that it got everyone talking and forming meaningful connections immediately. The damage that my day-attack does will not instantly kill anyone (I'd imagine). So the trade off in doing a minor bit of damage (versus getting the thread talking) was worth it to me.

He only has literally 2.3 times the number of posts than King of Bleh. Seriously, WLOTM, you gotta chill a bit. Just because people aren't posting at the rate that you want doesn't mean that they're not engaged in the game and putting out content.

Lowtax, fix the forums. Meinberg posted:
Sure. I'll chill. I am just annoyed by a combo of things with regards to this game. A bit about all the shade being thrown at me based on mechanics (even though if the town knew my full ability sheet they would understand why I posted like I have), a bit about the terrible loving lynch from last night that was the embodiment of giving up and doing what's easy, and a mix of other things. I'm definitely not going to post as much during D2. Maybe someone else will come in and put forth some effort.

All the shade being thrown at you is me. And it's not mechanics-based or dependent on your ability being lethal and you keep lying about that, changing your story, and making a vague mechanics-based defense. That and your being way more interested in mechanically clearing yourself than casing scum.

Ecco posted in the other thread about how she isn't accepting battle actions until preliminary phase is over. I will accept actions for both phases now, but if you submit for battle phase and something happens to you in preliminary phase I won't let you change your action, so be hasty at your own risk. Anyone who has already submitted their battle action can resubmit this one time just cause it may not have been clear (it totally was but reading is hard). Also everyone so far had been doing this so you're all pretty great, but make sure you put the actual name of your action in the PM, not just ##shoot or whatever.

kaschei posted:First, you keep objecting this way as though I've assumed this, but I haven't. I don't believe you about your role so I'm not ruling out worst possibilities but the relative power of your role has nothing to do with my criticism, which is that the way you have tried to leverage it to protect yourself is scummy. I do want to point out that if someone else dies you have plenty of outs - how could you have guessed Quandary would pick Scummy So-and-So for the battle? etc. You don't have to have picked a target just because you said you did, and that's even assuming that you have a role mostly resembling what you've claimed. Emphasis is mine. I'm posting from awfulapp, so please excuse any hiccups. You are mostly correct in your read of the situation. I am going to address your points based on the blocks of text that you have posted. 1) Yes, scum could easily claim a similar power; however, I would argue that for as little sense as you feel my posting has, that doing so from a scum standpoint would make even less sense. We could go back and forth on this, but it is ultimately a point of WIFOM. 2) Yes, I slightly misrepresented the power of the attack. I did this at first to get people talking, as for all of my self preservation, if I were to flip, I want some hard opinions to remain for people to look at. Looking at Narcos flip relative to the day one posting tells us almost nothing, and I would like to avoid that if possible. After we got away from the mechanics talk, I became more open about the nature of the attack, because I don't consider my quasi-vig ability to be the focus of my character. Hence the "reasons" that you are so hung up on. You are right that I would like to preserve myself and be put into battle because I think I could be very effective in it. Perhaps I am overestimating my power. Still, in my mind it made sense to be completely open about the fact that I would be attacking players I viewed as scummy, because I figured that info would get out anyway. ... Now for some new stuff! ... For anyone who is not Kaschei, I still maintain that he is not reading the thread in the way that a townie would. Look at Meinberg's posts from last night and now look at my bold emphasis in Kaschei's post... Kaschei says that he doubts that I am being honest regarding the power and he also doubts that I even targeted anyone. What's wrong here? Meinberg openly claimed last night that he was the target of my attack! Why then, in the middle of his posting flurry, would Kaschei not read his claim? He is not reading the thread like a townie should. Meinberg is someone who many people found to be scummy based on his day one posting. Specifically the "dreadful" post about townie vibes. Meinberg has openly corroborated that I attacked him. You can decide for yourself whether or not that means that I was honest when I said I thought I attacked a scum. By extension, the fact that Meinberg is alive corroborates the second part of my claim, that the attack is probably not enough to kill anyone. Look at what Kaschei has been going on about in my points of emphasis. Look at Meinberg's posts. How could Kaschei miss it? He isn't reading the thread.
