Good morning! I am Y'shtola Rhul, a scholar and observer of the art of mafia.

I hope to learn a lot from this game, so feel free to go all out!

I hope you're some overpowered town role because you discarded Town Cop of all things.

If you saw my three cards, you would understand why.

If your Town you Must have gotten Town Vigilante or something.

If I had the choice of a scum role, I would have picked it.

Sadly, I did not roll a single alignment other than town in all three setups. It's quite distressing, actually.

Do you have any other relevant questions for me at this time?

Can you tell me what cards you rolled in the other two setups?

As it stands, I do not believe that you didn't roll scum in any setup.

You can believe what you like, but that is exactly what happened.

My Setup A cards were Town Conspiracy Theorist, Vanilla Townie, and Town Seer.

My Setup B cards were Town Roleblocker, Town Lynchbait, and Town One-Shot Vigilante.

If it helps, the Alignment card I chose was Town Gravedigger. My role card was something I knew I would want to pick up, so the Town Cop was discarded.

I would take a Cop unless I got some super role

I would like to believe the role I decided upon is superior for my uses. I appreciate the curiosity!

I have no completed games on the site. I apologize for the trouble.

What does this tell you?

That the question was obvious

Is that all it tells you? The phrasing insinuates differently.

Does anybody have any questions? It appears this game has stalled out.

Yes.
Why has it stalled out?

It appears to me that the primary engagements causing the game to move forward have resolved without incident, and people are not quite certain how to proceed beyond this point.

Then here’s your chance to be the town leader and show everyone how to proceed beyond this point.

Oh my. I'm just a scholar, dear TrueSoulEnergy.

My job is to observe, question falsehoods, and offer my knowledge to those who need it, not to lead.

I agree. The chances of that are so slim
Why do you think Yshtola Rhul would lie about this? This is posed to both EspressoPatronum and GlowingOvineChimes.
The chances of rolling all-town in all 3 setups is so low. My disbelief of Yshtola was initially guided by intuition, but I decided to go the extra mile today and try to math it out.

If my math checks out, the chances of picking all 3 town in any one setup is about 18.3%. Picking all 3 town in all 3 setups is ~0.006%.

This makes me even more disappointed about it!

This is no longer true, I have a completed game with TrueSoulEnergy, Sujimichi, and Cat Scratch Fever.
