It's partially a joke but it's a strange proposal that sounds like it's for binus' benefit (emphasis mine:)

I think I know what Binus is up to and if he is town, it's a pretty good idea. Unless he's a scum PGO trying to murder all the power roles but that would just be loving hilarious.

I mean it should be incredibly obvious as to what b- is up to, which is why I'm baffled Maerlyn is trying to attribute malice to it.

Malice is a strong word, how about hesitancy/doubt for a player whose alignment I don't know? I assume we're talking about "Fanatic Materialist" but I don't know that is what binus is thinking because he didn't say, so how is it "incredibly obvious"?

There are 3 powers in the OP alone that work on a visit. Only one of them is harmful and doesn't make sense for a townie to "bait" like this (PGO)

Why are you immediately jumping to this conclusion?

This is basically stating "Oh, B- might have a special personality that harms people on visits", which is some serious mental gymnastics when there's a much simpler solution available.

Also PGO is just an one-shot thing if I read this thing correctly? Does that means he'd be able to murder one person at worst? Or that he'd murder everyone but just that one night?

Betting on Gestalt Consciousness, Binus wants to see how many people he can command to obey at once :tinfoil::tinfoil:

It varies by mod, but usually one-shot PGO means that you activate it for one night and kill everyone that visits.

But yes, it's probably one of Gestalt or F. Materialist and I'm not sure why people would immediately jump to other conclusions. It's entirely alignment neutral.

So the smart move is to visit Binus on N2, get it.

Though I concur mass-death by PGO caused by a flock of people wanting to see what binus is up to would be fun as hell too.

I don't know, even if he is town I'm gonna say that giving All The Powers to binus might actually be not a pretty good idea lol

There's also the question of what'd happen to someone who gets tracked, watched, roleblocked, doc'ed, jailed and driven in the same night. Even if you don't include kill actions and passive actions, that sounds like a fun night.

I would say that someone immediately begging everyone to visit him N1 isn't exactly an "alignment neutral" action.

Nobody said anything about actually following up on his request. The point was that the act of asking itself isn't necessarily suspicious.


This is a massive overreaction either way. Bif, I think you mighta been onto something.

Not Epsilon? I remember Epsilon being scum before and being way too tryhard to get poo poo started on D1, this isn't nearly as bad but it's giving me faintly similar vibes.

Oh I should prolly put this jokevote away now that things are moving to actual game discussion
