Nero Cain knows all.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

that's...really weak. You can do better, at least I hope you can.

@Jingle
Can you explain why you think Shoshin is more likely to be 3p than mafia?

Aye.

I no longer think this, but I had a tinfoil theory that Shoshin's entrance was a result of another player 'inviting' them into the game. If said player was mafia it would likely have come before the Varsoon threadlock to further influence the voteswing. If said player was town, adding her specifically now is weird timing. The remaining option (3rd party) both has more likelihood to have some kind of I add people to the thread role (ala cultist, but less terrible) and more reason to do so now.

On the other hand, Shoshin's insistence that they were in the original signups, the editing timestamps on the various threads, and RC's blatant admiration for her ability in the postgame of Labyrinth along with disdain for the rest of town 'ignoring her reads' (haven't read the whole game, so not sure how accurate that is) lend credence to the idea that she was given a role about not joining the game until late. At the very least, it's a well researched lie if it is a lie, meaning that Shoshin herself was probably in on creating it, so my 'recruited from outside the game' theory is worthless.

Tornado (Night Skipper): If you manage to trigger a tornado in Texas, it will skip a night.
Plane to Brazil (Night Zero): You are currently flying to brazil. You don't have an action right now.

Did chick ever claim her role and check if anyone got her YT songs? This seems like the normal equivalent of unlimited loud fruit vendor .
Not sure what utility sky's role would've been.

Yes to Chick's role. Can't remember who, but someone got the same song like 5 times.

Night skipping is generally positive town utility, unless the setup is heavily reliant on nighttime investigations. Given the number of day abilities we've already seen, it's probably the equivalent of a guaranteed doctor protection.
