@Evenstar, is it possible for you to invite people to your neighborhood?
Tangentially, could some of the more experienced players give a rundown of what roles we're likely to see?
I feel like I've got a pretty good idea on some of what's going to be in the game, but don't want to inform the scum if I'm wrong on how many there are. I will say that I'm curious on what roles
@BanTheFairyKing might expect to be in this one though.
Random guesses always have purpose, because it's more fitting to call them "random" guesses.
@ Whoever wanted my guesses for scum team: my guesses right now are Dovah/Even/Nictis/Naninami out of completely random number generating.
While largely NAI this is also a tiny bit scummy. It's hair-splitting but as Town using rng serves no real point but makes little difference, mentioning that you did so serves no purpose at all. As scum, whether you did or not, saying you did makes an easy defence against people using the list later on (when that is supposed to be the point by your own words). Now I actually don't think you'd do that as scum because it's rather obvious but eh I'd still preferred if you hadn't mentioned this.
If I'm being completely honest, actually using RNG is NAI in general. Town can use it when they really don't feel like picking names themselves, and scum can use it to deliberately obfuscate the random reads on purpose, making them completely useless on a flip. It has a bit more utility as scum due to this, but I don't see why Town wouldn't just do that to save time (considering other people have answered in even wilder ways than I have).
Mmm. I don't like this. I don't like this
at all.
I'm trying to think of the best way to explain it, and I'm having some trouble. So I'm going to list things.
1: Ban's non-answer of himself, Rosen, and four people not playing the game is not a 'wild answer,' it's not an answer. It's just jokingly ignoring it.
2: Why is Rosen still saying it was RNG? What kind of Random Number Generator pulls up a number not even included in the game (dovah)?
3: This helps us find scum because Scum would want to include other Scum for credit, except Scum are likely to just roll dice for it. And Town can use random dice as well.
4: "These are all 'random' guesses" / "I used RNG to choose them"
Don't like this at all. I will switch Absum off of my list for Ban though.
Poor wording in the previous quote you pulled I guess. I mean that more in a sense that scum will innately try to sprinkle in actually accurate scum reads in their reads, regardless of if they're random or not. This, in the event of a scum flip, we can have some semblance of a team read already started up.
Granted, mentioning this outright defeats the purpose of it mostly, and enough other people have memes around with it that it really doesn't work the way it's intended in this specific game. Long story short, the point is simply that we do not use these guesses for current reads, rather they serve as guidelines for future ones.
M I S L Y N C H A L E R T !
Holy crap, really? You're setting up to suspect anyone who calls out scum early on, or to follow a list of people who scum had picked out Day 1 when they get lynched. This is a serious alarm. (Sorry about rearranging things, but this deserved to be a the end)
