Okay that’s my fault for not tracing Toal’s role back to his day action. My bad.

But yes, I submitted my day action (acted on myself) and got nothing from Yami. I submitted a night action then, thinking I pretty much have to keep trying until I can figure this out and I got a result of a single letter. So.

Yeah.

Did some of you really get straightforward responses on your night action?

Also this post, which I should have just quoted to begin with, says he took a night action

y'know what would be funny, is if ypm and bif are scum together, and one of them did the nightkill while using their shared rolecop claims to mask it

Do you think we are scum?

Another thing that would be good for people to report, if they don't want to out the role but do trust the person they rolecopped... is to advise if your target should be using their action on towny people or scummy people.

Oh, that's a good one.

Bif, you should use yours on towny people, additionally, you'll need more words than just "action someone". I think I can let you figure that one out.

Okay, so, uh, full disclosure first off when catching up after the day ended, I missed the post about their being a plan for rolecop stuff so I didn't cop ETR last night. That's entirely my bad.

I did cop Bif though. This was mostly just for my own peace of mind, to be honest. Part of it is just like really confusing, and I'm not sure how it's supposed to work at all. If I'm understanding it correctly, then...

Right now, I'd absolutely recommend sticking to using it exclusively on Towny people. A bit more than just a target is recommended, but it's not necessary. I'm guessing that's so you can work out what it does.

sigh, I wish I could post my chatlogs with Yami where I’m literally tryin to figure out what I even needed to..provide him with? In order to take certain actions?

I “used” (never received confirmation) my day action yesterday on myself. Yami NEVER got back to me if this did anything or not. When the day ended, I spent a while trying to figure out what kinda actions I could take, because I didn’t even understand..like..what I should be inferring from no response to my day action.

So I said to Yami “target YPM???” because I didn’t even know if I could be targeting, if I should be targeting, if I have a role, if that role is passive. I got back “g,” so I’m sorry I’m not appearing more helpful but I don’t get what’s going on with roles. Straight up.

Bif I wasn’t sucking up to you as town and I don’t know where or what you’re getting that from considering I made 2-3 posts stating I was getting town vibes from you. I don’t understand what’s so scummy about making a town call?

Sure, of course. There’s a difference, though, between not piling on the votes and trying to give Sand an out before he even responds to the case.

sigh I’ve gone back and reread all our chatlogs (there are a lot of Yami trying to explain without revealing what’s going on, recommended after game ends) and I did receive “red,” which I’m now supposed to understand means ..no day action? So I’m confused again, but I guess there’s confirmation I had no day action.

I submitted both, not knowing which would work or which was active or relevant. I hadn’t pieced together I had no day action yet, so I figured if I did have a day action, the rolecop would work, and vice versa.

I told him to:
Target YPM,
rolecop YPM

I got back: “g”

He didn't say anything to you at all? Didn't even just stall you by saying "Soon."? :v:

You appear to have no night action though if that "g" result is the truth.

Rolecopping is something everyone is guaranteed to have, it would give you either success or failure, not "g".

But "Target YPM" isn't correct syntax. You'd have to "action" YPM to get a result of "invalid, you have no night action".

It does sound like you could be trying to fudge things all right

...excuse me?? I’m sorry, I didn’t realize that this game was so straightforward to everyone else, legitimately. It’s confusing as gently caress to me when I give a night action and get back “g,” have to cross reference that with the NK’s PM, and then do a bunch of normal mafia thinking, simply to conclude that..I have a passive role? Despite being told to “action someone” at night??

I thought “action” pertained to the rolecop and “target” was for my actual role. The op doesn’t actually say to use “##rolecop” so that’s why I was confused

The OP doesn't say the exact syntax to use rolecop , but it does say the correct syntax to use actions, in bold, and this was also reinforced by nearly everyone using that correct syntax all day yesterday ffs.

In fact, Sandwolf was an early adopter, using the correct syntax as only the third person to act in the whole game. almost as if he had been paying enough attention somehow to gather that much basic functionality.

Sigh, okay, that’s fair. There’s no way for me to prove my confusion, so I get it. But it kinda feels like.. why does me loving up syntax make me scum?

The whole “Sandwolf feigning confusion” is probably a valid argument, if you feel that way, but I don’t think messing up the syntax of night actions makes me scummy.

Yeah, absolutely, everyone using the same syntax in thread was a good indicator of what I should be saying. But I’m not on a team with people I can coordinate night actions with, I forgot the syntax at the beginning of the day, I made a mistake on it. Idk Yami figured it out? Isn’t that good enough?
