I think I agree that constraining scum's fakeclaims later is a good idea, though. So: I got three cards.

I'm also idly wondering if we should claim something else to make fakeclaims harder - say the remainder of the sum of our card ranks divided by 13. Probably more trouble than it's worth.

Why would scum lie about not bidding?

If you aren't comfortable with talking about this information, why do it?

VOTE: Lil Uzi Vert - the Vifam vote looks like it's a convenient attack, not the result of thinking "is this a thing scum would do?". Claiming but saying you don't want to is trying to fit in/look good. In his last post, saying he "believes" the scum has a daykill feels a bit off... smells like scum not wanting to appear too knowledgeable about scum mechanics.

Is there a reason people are claiming how many cards they missed out on? I can't immediately see the point (though I also can't see any problem with it).
There seems to be a misunderstanding on why I voted. I'm not voting because I necessarily SR him. A few things he posted pinged me and I wanted to talk about those things with him. I didn't see a reason not to bid but I guess looking back now he may have been confused about the set-up as he thought this game was based on Yu-Gi-Oh! so he might have just said screw it.

As for why I claimed, I realized that this game isn't going to be played how I imagined it would be and that this is going to be the course of discussion for a while. I do acknowledge why I'm not comfortable talking about it in

in hopes that those who haven't claimed, won't. I said I believed because I haven't looked in the OP since the game started so I'm not sure.

I am looking into that, but I am not so sure yet. It depends on what we draw from this round. Setup cracking is kinda my thing. I am working on each set of data prepping for the next.

Lil, I suppose you have a full set?

First, check if they are capable to be activated at the same time. Unless otherwise specified, millers and Godfathers only activate when their rank/suit is flipped.

They could, but we're not fullclaiming today. We are solely claiming if we got out 3 picks or not for now.

I know but I mean it seems like it would be very easy for one to claim they didn't understand the extent of how anti-town their card is.

Unless we massclaim, we deal with it later. There is no universal standard beyond hated/millers/ninjas and the like claim when they are in play.
