Well, as far as I can tell the objection being raised around here is breadcrumbing unique elements of the role PM that might be shared with others who happen to have the same role.

I don't have any objections to this practice as I try to avoid imposing any sort of restrictions on what players can post, other than game rules required to keep the game fair and civil. But then I craft my role PMs so that any similarities are deliberate. With the investment of just a little effort other hosts can do the same.

The problem is not about the hosts, but the players who will grab capitalized "y" to call someone scum//faking claim or even an "i" missing in Vanilla.
I understand the concept of breadcrumbing, same flavour text for same roles is just dumb.

LOL Palmar those role PMs were funny.

Anyway discussing role PMs hasn't been an issue AFAIK since PYP:I or XLV. I don't think any game since has had that issue.

Primarily it's been a problem in PM games, but also a problem of lack of consistency among hosts and co-hosts (in the same game)

There are a few obvious solutions, but the best is to simply keep consistency among the hosts. Also one can provide mafia the option to ask for fake claims, that works well too IMO.

Up to the hosts. If they don't want it, be like Palmar, give examples, or write out separate flavor text.

Personally I don't mind breadcrumbing your role, just so long as players understand that it could go wrong: I once gave a town and mafia player similar flavor text.

I'll also be using my own OP, because this one is too long and most players know it

I strongly dislike players referencing their role PMs. If you want to convince me you are town, do it properly and play the game. It's the same reason you don't quote your role PMs or post the time you received it, just further down the spectrum. Play mafia, don't try to game the system.

I don't have time to do the full update I promised a while ago, but I'm putting in something right now to stop the breadcrumbing thing. It has come up too often for my tastes and I'm sick of dealing with it. The way I see things, there are 2 options: mods can post their role PMs so breadcrumbing can't happen or we can just make a rule against breadcrumbing your role PM and be done with it. I prefer the one which makes less work for the mods, so I'll edit in a new rule. For the record, I still think it is moronic that this has to be put in here explicitly at all. It is cheating and people should know better.

EDIT: I made 2 changes to the rules:
1. I edited #6 to read "Posting or sharing any PM you receive from a host."
2. I added #11 which reads "Breadcrumbing the specific wording of your role PM. Do not compare the wording in your role PM to prove your alignment."

Hopefully between the two, that fixes the breadcrumbing problem. Please let me know if you would like me to change the phrasing a bit.

Yeah hopefully this will be enough. It should not be happening period. The OP change is needed for games with closed setups.

Maybe not but the Model OP isn't for preventing issues with ongoing or past games, it's for preventing issues with future games.

Hey guys, I don't know if this is like, too much work for mods, but check this out:

1. prplhz
2. Ver

...you know, for the playerlist instead of linking to their profiles? Filter is arguably the best new function we've been graced with, and one of the biggest issues I have right now is like, trying to think of a page that had a post by someone so I can go filter them. What if we linked to their filter for the game they're in in the player-list? That way we could all just go to Pg1 and click their name for a filter of the game?

Food for thought.

Yeah, but I see mods linking to profiles and it occurred to me that it would be EASIER to do that than linking to profiles.

I see what you're saying though, it seems like it would be more work. But in my experience hosting (lolbad, you were there) it seems like something they could do like, between cycle changes when not much is going on.

Just a thought.

LOL that was the greatest thing ever.

For people who don't get it in one game Kurumi was a Vigilante. Kurumi is known as the only person to capitalize everytime he types "You." He came under suspicion so we made him claim and in his role PM the "You" was capitalized leading everyone to think that he had faked the role PM and typed it up by himself.

Huh I didn't know that was an option. I'll see what I can do about encouraging people to add it. Though in clue games it might be more useful to link to the profile (as we have done in the past).

Profile links are easy since you can just copy and paste the same url around the signup names and you're done. Filter links are a bit trickier since you have to find the user id of every player. Is there an easier way to do this? I suppose you can try and track down all the /in posts in the thread and use that to get the user id's.
I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt. I mean not that fancy store bought dirt. That stuffs loaded with nutrients. I... I can't compete with that stuff.

lol I was going to put filter links under every player in my LotR game but I got too lazy to do it.

I commend every host who makes that sort of effort!

For the mod spreadsheet for XLVIII I did that.

That's something the players could do for themselves if they want I suppose. Or the host. if the host feels nice.

Right-click on the filter button on a post and hit 'Copy Link Location'. You could do it from the "/in" post and it will be the same address the whole game. The two examples I used were literally from the two posters above me in this thread.
