If I read the description of Peek A Boo right when I signed up, doesn't that mean if we all just save our PMs until the end, we become super charged with all kinds of power ups?
I agree.

They might, but they would have to stick to whatever number they chose. Also, we then basically have a game of regular mafia (People with low numbers lie, people with high numbers tell the truth, we hunt for people with low numbers rather than people with mafia role PMs) but with less certainty.
I'm 84% town.
Who said that?
Chamber. It's all a conspiracy.
Or is it?
Well, I would think the person with the lowest percentage would then have the name of the person with the next lowest percentage. Do you have another idea?
p-edit: No. I didn't ask. Did you? (Mr. "Inspect Myself" )
Yeah, the name received by each player was detemind by whoever was next on a randomized player list who would have a significant chance of being scum. And no, I will not define what significant means.
So basically we all name-claim and percentage-claim, we can sorta root out the liars by the names, and also by the names we can probably get a good idea of what the list looks like.
So, name and numbers claim, sound good?
Numbers first I think. Just to discourage anyone from feeling safe that nobody has said their name and they are free to lie.

I should have clarified that more. Each player receives a different randomized list of players. The top person on that list who has a significant chance of being scum, is listed as their partner.

I don't think you realize that that's not how the "partners" were allocated.
Hypothetically, let's say I got a 97. Any given partner has to have a "significant" chance of being scum. I'm guessing that 3 doesn't count as "significant".
Why are you so against this, do you have a low number?

Does "chance" refer to the probability of getting town/scum which they got in their alignment PM?

you could "break" the game by numbers alone, but it's also

Yes, but we have nothing else to go on.

Player 1 rolls 86%
Player 2 rolls 51%
Player 3 rolls 70%
Player 4 rolls 35%
Player 5 rolls 31%
Numbers alone tells us 4 and 5 are probably the policy lynches. However; now we have to randomize the playerlist, and THEN randomize numbers again to determine actual alignment.
Player 5 rolls first
Player 3 rolls next
Player 1
Player 4
Player 2
Player 5 rolls 36. Player 5 is now scum.
Player 3 rolls 33. Player 3 is now town.
Player 1 rolls 51. Player 1 is now town.
Player 4 rolls 50. Player 4 is now scum.
Player 2 is town because scum has been chosen.
In this hypothetical scenario, our assumption pans out. However, had any of players 1-3 rolled before 4 and 5, and then hit numbers above their %, they would be scum and we would be policy lynching townies for no reason other than a beat-the-odds strategy.
If you want to gamble, go to the casino. I'm going to scumhunt.
