I just thought it was weird when you said this:


If scum dont get any fakeclaims that's pretty awful. There might be only so many playable characters, but there's also important NPC's and poo poo.

Also why would only scum claim your character? Ricard's page says he's aligned with the rebellion and a playable character.

There were fake claims in CPig's FF1 game so I imagine there would be here too.

Anyway, would vote Tobbs but waiting to see if we are getting random encounters like the FF1 game.

Man this seems like lovely play from Tobbs even if he is town, just sub out if you didn't want to counter-argue the scumslip.

Giving your gold out N0 with 0 info to go on.. yeah.

This was what I was getting at. If you're truly town, don't play against your win condition by giving away your stuff to whoever and "hope" they're town. That's just dumb.

I don't like C at all. A seems like an option that if it doesn't work, leads to D anyway. Not sure who directly attacking this early in the game is going to work out for us.

I'm leaning towards B, or maybe A depending on how convincing we think we are, but am open to opinions.

Full disclosure, I don't know much about FF2, so this may be barking up the wrong tree, but isn't Richard Highwind a major playable character? If so, doesn't arguing the bolded point mean either you are the only town with a major playable character somehow or that you are scum?

I completely disagree with your point and am willing to bet there is a good mix and match between who is a fake claim and who is actually a town flavor, but I just don't know how you, as a claiming town with a major playable character as your flavor, could put that argument forward.

This is a good argument.

Fighting him outright seems like a good way to fight everyone else. That's out.

Groveling could work, but doesn't seem to offer much upside to us.

I'm not sure what to make of Somber or Inf right now. I'm curious about slasher too, although I wonder if it's just an easy push.

I feel ok with most of the other people who are talking the most.

I am slightly worried about IS and AR. I think IS has interacted with the thread after I made my claim about Tobbs, but he's still leaving his vote there. I know AR is often busy with kid stuff, but he also uses a lot of excuses when he's scum.

I'm actually just trying to catch up right now on my ten-minute break from work. The general idea I got was that because Tobbs sent the 50 Gil right after we all got it from the first event, that means he's cleared as town?

His post history is very, very weak but shows engagement, largely with regards to events, not having a night zero action, and five guys hamburgers. Particularly, he brings up the possibility of Tobbs being a Jester, which seems pretty loving weird, unless you are confident that Tobbs isn't scum.

Look, I don't know what more I can say regarding being in and out of the thread then I've already said. I knew it would be a lovely couple of days at work (my boss is gone and I'm responsible for doing a whole bunch of stuff I've never been trained to do) and so I've been poking my head in the thread when I can and skimming to get an idea of what the discussion is. I didn't want to miss the story events so I made sure I voted for a choice each time even if I wasn't able to dedicate enough time for a full thought-out case on it.

I was more active at the beginning of the thread specifically because I wasn't working and knew once Monday came I likely wouldn't have a lot of time.
