I agree with Asiina. ##voteSirSamVimes and gently caress me for not listening to my instinct that Keane's claimed ability was unbalanced, ergo needed maybe a little more scrutiny.

Why the gently caress couldn't he have said something that didn't make him look stupid guilty?

also, who wants to LOOK GOOD tonight?

What I agree with, to be clear is that this feels fake because it's SO minimalist, SO safe, no reasoning, no zest, no joie de vivre, if you will. Just enough to not be called 0 content.

Wait, now I remember why I wanted to vote SSV. It was because I was assuming chores was scum and it looked like SSV piling onto the lynch because his scumbuddy was screwed and there was nothing he could do.

I don't think that's the case anymore because chores flipped town and am suspicious now that you're using that case as justification KFC.

Oh hey the day started

Seems a silly case. Keane had a night result that seemed like it'd be difficult to tamper with. The fact that he got the result on a musical and not a player means he couldn't have been redirected or framed, so I just believed him and didn't have much more to say on the matter.

I misunderstood your case/didn't reread that clarification post late last night. And am happy to retract agreement with you as part of my case, I think my argument stands alone.

I also think it felt fake but for the reasons I articulated rather than the ones you did. My bad.

I think KFC is the scum. The reaction he had to Keane's claim feels like a scum reaction when he knows that chores wasn't scum. All of it, from all angles, feels like a scum reaction.
Why isn't that role as claimed fair? It's a cop with a layer of obfuscation.

That's vaguely broken. I hope the scum got a warning that claiming their flavor was potentially hazardous, at least a calculated risk, but whatever. When someone says you're scum, if you're not scum, you don't make excuses for why they can't know that you're scum.

Look at this post from a scum-spective. It makes sense. From a town-spective, less so.

Random targeted powers that can swing a game that much are just unbalanced/unfair because they have no even Potential relation to player skill in their degree of success/usefulness.

Specifically this is not fair if the scum aren't briefed about the potential downside of flavor claiming because there's no reason to withhold flavor in a role madness game where the flavor is SO divorced from your powers/alignment. Since there's no especially town reason to withhold flavor, scum should probably flavorclaim in that scenario, and I thought it was just brutal -- since because of his dumb reaction of "I didn't go anywhere" i, like you, thought he was scum for sure and just got hosed over.

after a night that was like 3x as long as the day I think interest waned in this game and if the deadline is tonight, I don't see how it ends in anything other then a deadlines scramble or a no kill day given current levels of participation.

I won the contest so I can make the game skip tonight's night phase but I'm not going to bother if people don't post because if no one is going to play, then I want this game over sooner.

Logically, I understand where you are coming from. But I don't see a town mind seeing a claimed investigation (randomly targetted or not) on a nowhere near lylo day elicit a response of "this is unfair."

Right now, Retro Futurist is pinging me. They post worrying about how quickly the day is going, but don't express an opinion on the target nor provide anything else to discuss.

It feels like scum avoiding a vote on a town target that's getting lynched anyway while also posturing to be acting in a townie way.

I'm willing to be active in this game, but yeah, like KFC says, if the interest isn't there I'd rather see it mercy killed than to have it languish.

Okay, I hate myself for lurking so hard, so I'm going to try. I'm going to ##vote Gulag because they seamed absolutely certain that Chores was Town and haven't added anything else to the game. It's like scum who defended the town and wants to coast by on that.
