I'm so glad that so many of you who signed up for this game had the chance to read my personally written guide on How to Be Someone Else. A major thanks to northsidegal for allowing me to use this game as a platform to really help these players. After all, who would sign up to Be Someone Else if they didn't really want to Be Someone Else?
I'm a transparent flavour writer. As such, below are all of the sources I used to put together this guide.
"I'm the kind of player that cares most about townplay and thinks being scum and hoping town mislynches is very boring.
Yes, I highly despise being groupscum, what's fun about being scum?"
Welcome, RedFlavor. You are
Creature

upon making an unbroken chain of five or more posts in a row, you will be publicly confirmed to be town.
You win when all threats to the town are eliminated.

If you are ever lynched,
you may vengefully kill anyone who ended the day with a vote on your wagon.
In addition, each night you may target a player. If you are killed during the night,
you will kill the player who you targeted

ugh – you're getting a gut feeling of disgust. you get the feeling... that there's a
third party in this setup.
You know a thing or two about setups, and when you embrance lolbalance as much as you do, you begin to get a feeling for finding it out in games. That, and you reviewed this setup.
As the game goes on, at the start of each new day you'll gain more information about the setup.

The voices cry out endlessly, screaming from all directions and shouting over each other to be heard. With so many voices in your head, it's hard to even hear yourself think... or at least, it used to be. Where once there was noise, now there is emptiness: an emptiness that yearns to be filled.
This is your personal "hydra" thread. At any time you may
privately
contact anyone
not participating in the game
and ask them to join your hydra. They will receive access to your hydra thread, where you may discuss the game with them freely. Should you prefer, I will contact players myself on your behalf to request that they join.

Welcome, Thefuzzylogic99. You are

You have a long history of gambiting with neighborhoods and using them to read your neighbor better.
One time only, you may add someone to a neighborhood. You will be confirmed to be town to that player.
You are also known for your guides, articles on Mafia theory, and verbosity.
During the night, you may send me a message. I will post this message publicly at the start of the day.
It will not be revealed that you were the one who sent it. This message must be at least 200 words long.

Spoiler: Maki Harukawa / Chara
:>
Welcome, The Worlds Cutest. You are
Chara
/
Not Chara
, aligned with the
Town
.
You begin the game as
Chara
. As Chara you are generally obvious when town and have a history of not being mislynched, so
it will take one more vote than normal to lynch you.
Each night, however, you may choose to go from being
Chara
to being
Not Chara
. As Not Chara, people who come to kill you will still be looking for Chara,
so you will survive one nightkill attempt against you.
Once you have chosen to be Not Chara, you will remain that way for the rest of the game (you can't go back to being Chara, i.e. it will no longer take one more vote than normal to lynch you).
You win when all threats to the town are eliminated.

huh? i gave myself scum? well, as long as it's you playing and not me, i guess i could help you guys out a little bit. no "mod is mafia"-style business, but i might be able to make a few "errors" in your favor.
One time only you may have me "mix up" someone's night action target,
redirecting them to somewhere else for that night.
Additionally, one time only you may have me "forget" to resolve someone's night action,
preventing them from performing any actions that night.

Welcome, WhemeStar. You are

Mafia Traitor

Your neural net and scumhunting skills have already figured out who the scumteam are –
CheekyTeeky
and
Gamma Emerald
. The thing is, this game would be too simple if town just followed you, so you're siding with scum here.
If you're going to be helping scum, you might as make good use of your neural net and search for PR tells –
each night you may investigate a player to determine their role.
You will receive results in the form of that player's role PM.
Should the other members of the Mafia die, you will gain control of the factional nightkill.
You win when the Mafia holds a majority or nothing can prevent this.

In post 294, TheGoldenParadox wrote:My lynchpool right now is {Gamma, Cheeky, TWC, Wheme(policy), Pintu}
Gamma: I already explained my case.
Cheeky: Provides little in the way of game content, preferring to say things like "why are you guys so scummy" and then proceeds to have the biggest mislynch bait ever as her top townreads. I don't see that coming from this great of a town player, especially considering the difference between this and Gold Rush, although that may be normal newbie queue playstyle differences.
TWC and Pintu: Both perfectly good and capable players that are staying under the radar. I'm willing to partly excuse this as there could be multiple reasons for this absense.
Wheme: Provides none in the way of actual game content, trolling, which is NAI, but makes me want to PL him.
This lynchpool contained all 3 scum and the third party, and served as the actual lynch order for the game.
tfw you're Mathdino and you're the town MVP of a game that you didn't play

Read EA chat, it was pretty fun
I really liked to roles of the game
And also congrats tgp, that scumpool was really the order of lynches lol
Thats probably why he died n1
I definitely never ended up reading this but the EldritchAbomination idea was pretty cool, and the rest of the roles too. Good work North and mod team, congrats town and survivor.
You're under no obligation to be the same person you were 5 minutes ago.

thanks keychain!

I have one in mind which can help you with Fuzzylogic's alignment, if you want.
I'm not sure how long back this stretches. How far back the absolute lack of wagons on Scumfuzzylogic goes. But the flowchart was first developed back in 2018, so even back then this trend existed. That item on the flowchart wasn't something added later; it existed from the get-go, from the onset, from the very first development of the flowchart.
Scumfuzzylogic doesn't get wagoned...
