No not a tracker. I can see abilities, but not what they do.

2 trackers?

Given the way abilities seem to be tied to the smaller Gangs, it wouldn't surprise me if that was the case.

If that was it then I wouldn't have thought twice, but you do call me scummy, which to me seems like you trying to rationalize a vote that didn't need to be reationalized. It felt like a player self concsious about seeming scummy so you wanted to make sure the town knew your vote was motivated by your towniness, and not just that you were forced into making it

lol I had no reason to feel self-conscious, you TD'd.

Without direct quoting, I can see ability names, but not what they do. I would have gotten an ability name if my action had succeeded.

Hmm, GG, you are saying you didn't track FL, just that you can see what actions they do?

That doesn't quite make sense to me.

Right I TD'd and if you just voted me i would have thought nothing of it, but you calling it actually scummy, and going on about it being anti-town just feels like you trying to justify the vote for some reason, and you asking me "If I think TMM is scum" felt like posturing to call me scummier

I think he's saying he gets the action name. Like your track isn't called track right? If GG looked at you he might see that you have an ability called 'looking at footsteps' or whatever.

I'm supposed to see what actions they take, if it's an ability - I learn its name, but for whatever reason I didn't learn anything. Just got a sad face.

Wait, halt.

OK, I'm just going to claim because I'm a little confused about how you found out that GG targeted FL.

I can also track, and chose to track TMM last night. Reading over my track ability, I follow the person to wherever they choose to go, and will see whatever action they perform. But I won't see who they perform it on.

Well, I know TMM just searched, since I was told he poked around the rubble. I don't think GG's action would fail since everyone would have likely done something, and he would have been told what it was.

If he was roleblocker the ability would fail entirely, wouldn't it?
