Mills posted:PM's PR sounds town to me (it's a pretty useless scum power to go 50/50). I agree with Mills about PM. Someone posted that PM could power-up from winning the Thunderdome which could make it a scum role. I think that's an interesting theory, but it doesn't match the content from PM. PM, before that theory was put out (I think), said we should no lynch. If she powered up in any way from winning the Thunderdome, she would have been pushing for us to lynch JakeP because "he'll die anyway n1 like he's claimed." I disagree with Mills about Rarity. What would be the point of Rarity claiming that role if she's scum?

Mills might be scum. That rarity thing is... not great.

Mills posted:And Rarity is the lowest form of scum. I'm not even sure if Mills is actually calling Rarity scum. He says that Rarity's role could be scum, and then this quoted post could be a joke. Mills, do you think Rarity is scum?

If I had the thunderdome role, and it powered me up when I won or survived, I would probably do a dummy one d1 to get people on board, and combine that with a promise to do a "better one" tomorrow

She also said she wouldn't use the thing until d4 or d5. However... I guess there's a thing I'm missing here: What's the point of this role? If she doesn't power up, why even have the role in the game? Why would you ever use it?

if i use it and we cuddle a scum, i get to do another one in two days if i use it and we get a no lynch, i get to to another one in (??) days if i use it and we cuddle a notscum, i lose the power. that's it!

i'm guessing this entire game was built around the idea of "let's put thunderdome in a mafia"

That makes sense I guess. Shouldn't it require that they post fanfic that is judged by the thread or something though?

That is, if it's purely a flavor role, it doesn't do a good job of purely being a flavor role.

i'd also say, it'd be a good townie role if you knew somebody was scum (high gut read, scummy nature, etc) and you were pretty much cleared as town, but the rest of the game wasn't focusing in on a target and kept letting the scum slip by. it makes sense on like day 4+, I think. it also works on d1 from a modding standpoint because if you can't limit the focus you're never going to get 18 people to agree on a lynch

Very true. Poque, what do you think about Mills saying Rarity is scum?

i meant to finish the "it's not good" thought but got distracted by diqnol. to call rarity scum for those reasons makes no sense when her motivation was clear

Poque posted:wrong. she claimed because people were voting jake, and jake had claimed he would die at night. rarity did not want to inherit his power if it meant she would die too Survival makes it a null read in my book. If she inherits the first lynch's PR and the first lynch's PR is to die N1 (still want more information on that from Jake) then regardless of alignment she'd want that stopped.

That's reasonable, Poque, hadn't considered that. Kind of a null tell then!

scum (on the other scum team) don't want to die because scum. town wouldn't want to die because this is a silly game and it's worth sticking around.

Town is less scared of dying but needlessly dying as town the next night isn't good either unless jake's role is clutch as heck

This is a leading question: After looking over Mills' content, you came to the conclusion that he is scum, isn't that right?
