Yo Nauci!

1. There is a mobile option and though I am not fond of it, it maies buttons bigger and stuff. I use MafBlack on mobile and am very used to it, but whatever works! :)

2. Don't do that. Do not. Please. Claiming VT day 1 is bad play and all I can do not is advise against it in the future. You havent done antthinf detrimental, but its just nit helpful at all for many reasons (I can go into theory upon request).

3. Cute kitty!!! You cat avi people make me so happy!!! <3

there's just been a lot of non-game content from a lot of people. it could be nai but it could also be scum looking to take attention away from scumhunting. my vote served multiple purposes, one of which is to get discussion started, which it already has. in addition, it felt like porkens was too dismissive of the 1 shot bulletproof strategy. having a confirmed townie is a powerful tool, and there's discussion to replace the newbie setup as it is now because of the bp strategy. i think to dismiss it so off-handedly could be revealing.

bp iss being looked into as a goner because of conftowns and mechanical strategies(other than role aim) being bad for newbie development not because it makes it scumsided

Do the gambit if you want. I was expressing my opinion, which was asked for.

Nai means "not alignment indicative"

I don't know what rtv means

i'm not saying that i suspect you because you expressed your opinion, i'm saying that it's because of both the tone and the opinion itself that i suspect you.
In post 138, Nauci wrote:I'm not sure if I understand how the bp gambit is meant to work.
it's not really a gambit per se. everyone in the thread claims either bulletproof or not bulletproof. if someone claims bulletproof then everyone explicitly states that either they don't counterclaim or they do counterclaim (if they're the doctor, cop or bulletproof themselves, but without specifically saying which). if it works then town ends up with a confirmed inno and scum lose the ability for a false claim. if nobody claims bulletproof then scum still lose the ability for a false claim and everyone (town and scum) ends up with slightly more setup information.

i would honestly be against doing it at this point - it's a lot of mechanical talk in a game that's already spent a lot of time on fluff and if there's no bulletproof claim then it's meant to move on to another "breaking" stage which i don't have knowledge of.

The game-in-a-game was to help people get to know eachother. Its totally up to the table if you want to play it. It's already going, so...

Here, I'll give you a realist to talk about....Just a sec.

I mean, if you do so seriously or in jest, that's fine (though still somewhat advisable). The VT claim in the open setup is bad though, that's all I'm saying!

Vote the Euros immediately because the time zone difference throws off the game for everyone else.

To be fair, I come from a land where everyone is a jerk and everything is in jest.

Oh, you did mean lynching people in different timezones.
Yeah, we don't do that here. And many of them are fantastic players!

Sounds like a fun place you come from!

Don't worry, you've come to the right place! Sure, we have our select bunch of jerks, but this place is nice and tame compared to what I've seen :)

Also are you scum?
