I'm just going to completely ignore Amber, because a dogspeak role is absolutely useless and we've wasted a lot of time talking about it. He could easily be a mafia who saw that someone decided he had a post restriction, and started distracting us with it.

Alright, as much as I am intrigued by Amber's dog role, that's not leading us nowhere near finding scum. Maybe the person who gave Amber this role will have some info for us down the line.

I think we should focus on putting up BC's list and giving your opinion about policy lynches and LAL. Make your posts concise because this thread is quickly turning into a spam fest.

So hiro has it right. write down those meanings, folks! We'll need to figure the rest out eventually, I'd imagine.

I like my morse code idea better, but if its not feasible then its not feasible.

I propose we leave the topic of amber and move on to discussing the zodiac list, or doing something that contributes to catching scum really.

*facepalm*

Yes, grrr means disapproval and wiggling the tail means approval/happiness. I congratulate you all to your first pet.

Instead of stupid morse code(that shit gets freakingly huge fast), we should ask directly so Amber can quote and answer the question.

Amber, are you a dog with special powers?
Or are you only unable to speak?

If first is true, do you have any meaningful knowledge advantage(from being a dog, not as player)?
If nobody hates you, you´re doing something wrong. However someone hating you doesn´t make you right

disagree.

make your posts LONG and information-packed because this thread is quickly turning into a spam-fest. the more concise our posts the more posts we will have. make longer posts and spend more time on them so we have more to analyze instead
would you ever miss it?

@Mataza, @redFF

If the person I made my role for whined as much about it as you guys, I'd not be very happy about that. I think keeping role-whining to an absolute minimum would be awesome, we can't all be the goddamn batman and you're not gonna get a new role anyway.

ok so we can conclude that prp created either mine or mataza's role.

No, he is calling for a reduction in spam, which is a good thing. Whining is not helping us catch scum.

So, who so far do you think should go on the zodiac list redFF?

Is the Zodiac list a list of people i think should be checked or a list of people i think should be protected?

I would help with BC's list, but I have no idea of the skill level of players in this forum.

I think LAL should stand. I cannot see any reasonable scenario in which players could benefit town by lying.

@desks that's what I ment. By concise I mean with no useless fluff and spam.

@Amber unless you have something meaninful to bark at keep your quoting spam to a minimum pls.

first of all i want to say that the dog-isms are cracking me up ITT
if that's a legit role with a post-restriction, that's absolutely brilliant and is gonna make this game a blast
cheers to that

second, i know i'm about 5 pages late on this but holy shit this thread is moving fast. i wanted to chime in that i'm also against a LAL policy. there are tons of cases where lying can help the town. especially in a game where no one knows any of the roles except for the one they created, you have NO IDEA if someone else could be lying to set up a master plan to help the town win or something.

of course this works both ways and i'm sure i'm preaching to the choir here because you're mostly experienced players. what i'm saying is that we should focus more on scumhunting than policy lynches

also forgive me for being naive, but someone mentioned using night-powers to off liars instead of lynches. isn't that a poor choice? i'm assuming there are at least a couple interceptor-type roles. in the last game that i played, i was a vigilante and i was terrified to shoot anyone who i had drawn suspicion to during the day because i always thought the interceptor would kill me if i tried. i always tried to get my FoS's lynched during the day, even with a fool active.

lastly, without wanting to give anything away, i feel like redFF, in that i don't think my role is going to play a huge role in the game. so i hope i can contribute via scumhunting and quality posts instead


As I said before, I think the chances of a village idiot/fool or traitor being present are slim. I wouldn't take that into consideration, otherwise I look forward to playing with you And I'm still trying to grasp at what is possible in this game, so I wouldn't worry over direct counters like that. No roles are going to be heavily specific when regarding other roles, since as both players and role creators, we all made them for the recipient's benefit. They will have straight forward mechanics with perhaps a twist or two to make it fun for the person IMO.

So I think we should hold off on figuring out what we can do with other people roles, and focus on what you can do individually, and what we do normally. I think the zodiac list should be prioritized, but I can't say I'm not intrigued by amber. WHATS THAT LASSIE? JOHNNY FELL DOWN A WELL?

I am assuming that the zodiac list is something akin to this idea (since I can't find anything else that is close to the zodiac list).

Zodiac list

A confirmation on this would be good so that I can think about who all should be include in it or not.

ok, I think i will take it upon myself to discover what restrictions amber has. I think everyone else should focus on the zodiac list.

@Amber , can you only answer on question at a time?

Oh if i was mafia who would I hit? Bumatlarge and GM have both shown strong play in games i have observed/played in. BC has a reputation as a good player too. As for this game i'm getting town vibes off both bum and BC, not so much off GM(This isn't me calling him scum). If i was going to say now who i wanted protected i would say Bum and BC.

Ah, that makes more sense now. Thank you EM. So, are we all going to make a zodiac list, or should one person present one and we can all agree/disagree with it? We shouldn't spend too much time on this either, since it could be easy for scum to spend the entire day picking at the list and hide from actually having to contribute and being analyzed.

Sigh. This is silly. The dog appears to be some kind of guard dog, so i'm guessing he acts like a watcher/tracker or something like that. Useful later on, a waste of time for now.

As for the LAL plan: no. You lynch people when there is a good reason to do so, not simply because you lied. There could be many reasons that town would be lying, and blindly lynching them for it is not a good idea.

The list is unneccesary. People should be capable of deciding for themself who is worth protecting or inspecting, you don't need someone holding your hand telling you what to do.

Oh, and props for whoever thought up the dog role, that's just hilarious.

That's it exactly. Ace made a list of all the strong presences in the town, and it put a lot of pressure on these few. Since they were all town, the pressure lead them to keep posting like townies and win versus a weak mafia team. I barely remember that game. So, the list will be strong presences in the thread, along with vets who we can't afford to keep quiet. Since everyone has a role, I don't think there is much of an excuse to keeping quiet as town. If you think you have a weaker role or are a veteran role of sorts, then you need to try to get yourself on the list, because that usually means you are being an obstacle for scum to deal with, and a backbone for the town.

I don't think I'd put amber on the list, because that handicap draws enough attention, and we can't exactly ask him to explain things without taking up 10 pages...

To be honest, I think Amber is lying about his post restriction. Anyone who makes a role that prevents a player from discussing and analyzing in a game based on discussion and analysis is an idiot, unless he has some sort of incredibly superpowered night ability.
