Death Note: I’ll Be The One Writing Your Name

[Evenstar]

Okay, all these mechanics posts are bullshit. Flavour is

absolutely

indicative.

For example, I'm Ryuk, but because I'm a Shinigami my name can't be written in the death note, and therefore I cannot flip. Observe:

FLIP ME RYUK

And for good measure:

FLIP ME LIGHT YAGAMI

FLIP ME L LAWLIET

FLIP ME MISA AMANE

FLIP ME REM

FLIP ME NEAR

FLIP ME MELLO

FLIP ME WATARI

FLIP ME TOUTA MATSUDA

FLIP ME SOICHIRO YAGAMI

FLIP ME RAYE PENBER

FLIP ME TERU MIKAMI

FLIP ME SHUICHI AIZAWA

FLIP ME KANZO MOGI

FLIP ME HIDEKI IDE

FLIP ME HIROKAZU UKITA

FLIP ME MATT

FLIP ME BEYOND BIRTHDAY

FLIP ME NAOMI MISORA

FLIP ME AIBER

FLIP ME WEDY

Blah blah freaking blah you get it. Either I can't flip or I'm a ridicuously small bit part. Feel free to request more FLIP MEs from me if you want.

Claiming this now because the role is essentially a Miller in this setup.

[Vorkuta]

Ok we're getting serious now.

I propose that everyone WITH superpowers claims "yay or nay"
This is a rare opportunity to properly massclaim without the fear of being NK'd, so I think we should take advantage of it.

I'm also envisioning an N1 where literally every player reveals but we can get a pretty damn not bad solve afterwards

[Evenstar]

Nay. Other than my inability to flip I'm vanilla.

[Vorkuta]

The rest of yall?

[Mordhaus]

Narp.

If Evenstar is right, there's a decent chance that role might be linked to flavor in a way to make things guessable by scum. I think there is at least some utility to controlled reveals, but I don't think now is when we discuss it.

[Mordhaus]

Flavour doesn't inform alignment but I'm guessing there is probably someone on kira team with flavour cop who had shinigami eyes in the anime.

I'm kinda just excited to see all the set up gubbins at the end. Shame that beyond basic flavour name safety it's probably best avoided talkimg about for now.

He said he literally randomized the flavor and it has no effect, so if someone with shinigami eyes exist, it's coincidental.

In other news, yeah, I don't know if anyone is revealing today on day 1, but if they do, I say atleast 2 people HAVE to reveal. Because frankly, giving scum 1 option is weird too me.

Lynx, pl0x?

So can we fast forward through the inevitable ~10 pages worth of shitposts, personal grudges, and bad pushes to get to that point ASAP?

[Vorkuta]

Or we could no Lynch just to confirm no Night Actions can take place and massclaim on D2

You don't think there's anything already AI?

[Vorkuta]

I think the bigger picture is more helpful than some off-comment that some random player made that may or may not be relevant when sorting them

[Mordhaus]

Yeah, ok.

VOTE: Vorkuta

[Vorkuta]

I accept this act of fast forwarding

This is a bad idea. First you want claims on the basis that we should not fear the NK, but then you say you expect everyone to reveal, which does open up the door for the NKs to occur.

Am I misunderstanding?

[Vorkuta]

I want "are you a PR y/n" answered, which does not involve a reveal.
Once we have sufficiently many claims to formulate a plan of attack, we swarm with numbers/broken interactions/trackers confirming actions and all that good stuff

[Almost50]

Technically, I am a PR. Yes.

[Vorkuta]

Only good things happen when monkey plays ball with me

Sweet.
Best case scenario, we get an estimate of how many "VTs" there are in this game and hopefully people can ask for PRs that can complement theirs and some broken interaction that we can abuse exists.

[RCEnigma]

There couldn be interactions that are flavor specific and therefore anti town for scum to know. Since it's pretty easy to connect dots if roles relate to flavor.

Don't think claiming pr/not pr is like super helpful and potentially harmful.

I'll say it's situational.

[Vorkuta]

The odds of scum piecing anything relevant together are way too small for this to be a threat IMHO.
Tinfoil hats off please people

[Wooper]

I don't really love the Vorkuta votes.

[Bambi Jay]

Technically, I am a PR. Yes.

We may or may not be in the same boat, friend.

What are we qualifying as a PR again? Just literally not VT?

[Bambi Jay]

Nay. Other than my inability to flip I'm vanilla.

Your deathproof then. Thats... A fascinating power.

[Chara]

i'm not a "break the mechanics" type, but.

in my opinion, a lot of assumptions are being made about the setup right now.
the short of it is, the more knowledge is public, the easier it is for scum to make guesses. it's really that simple, as RC said. that said, not voting Vork for it, that's his style.

the game is balanced around the reveal mechanic, so... as long as we don't do a mass reveal, i'm happy. a massclaim of pr/no pr doesn't seem useful to me, because the next step is requesting specific prs and revealing those.

pedit: not deathproof, just effectively bulletproof, as i'm reading it.
which, if you were town, would put you in a great position to and pull in some death note attempts from the kira team.
i am curious about the utility of your claiming here. is it just to say that your flavour fits your ability? because no one was arguing that. flavour being non-alignment indicative just means any character could be scum or town, it has nothing to do with flavour fitting your ability or not.

[Chara]

Almost, do you have anything you want to do? or do you like Vork's plan?

[Lil Uzi Vert]

Not even in the middle of Day 1 yet and we have gotten lazy. Can we actually try to play the game before we even entertain the idea of mass claiming?

[Chara]

i'm with you there, LUV. have someone you'd like to mercilessly execute?
