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

[Vorkuta]

I'd argue that the mod is the shinigami king so there's no breach in flavor/cannon so far

[Wooper]

we should stop flavourgaming and start kickin scum ass

[Evenstar]

Shinigami can't take the shinigami eye deal, for obvious reasons.

[Vorkuta]

>shinigami not HAVING shinigami eyes *smh*

IKR

I thought it was a rolecop thing but if it's Flavor only, it's so scum can make themselves hated to kill problematic townies I guess.

[Evenstar]

You can use it to confirm claims, which is valuable regardless of alignment. Honestly, I'd take a Hated modifier for a flavourcop any day.

Just as a reminder:
- Shinigami Eyes report the name and lifespan of whoever you read with them.
- Shinigami cannot have their names and lifespans read.
- Death Note users cannot have their names and lifespans read.

[Vecna]

Yeah, if only there was a different mechanic present to confirm claims

WAIT A MINUTE

You guys keep telling yourself whatever you want, im insta-hammering anyone that claims to be on L1 when theyre on L2.

Taking the deal as town = proscum

[BrightEyedFish]

I wanna get on this wagon

VOTE: Mordhaus

[Vecna]

Why?

[BrightEyedFish]

I promise I'm not just following Bambi's vote.

[BrightEyedFish]

Why?

Because the wagon will either keep going or fizzle out. Either way we can get some action!

[Evenstar]

Flipping requires you to out your role to everyone, including the scum. If you are for example a doctor, shinigami eyes might be worth it to let you try and find good targets to protect.

Treating everyone who claims to have made the eye deal as scum is a bad plan, IMO.

I wouldn't be super surprised if you'd advised Wooper to take the deal in your neighbourhood and now you're making a big deal out of "taking the deal means you're scum" as a way to distract.

Keep in mind though - if you're town and decide to take the deal, you should NOT be sharing eye results with anyone else. Remember how Light exploited Misa for her eyes? Yeah, don't be Misa.

[Evenstar]

*specifically, sharing your results in secret is very bad. Under some circumstances, it might be worth sharing them with the general public. "Someone is claiming to be a shinigami but you can see their name and lifespan" might be a good example, since it doesn't need you to actually share the name in order to provide useful info. Similarly, "I can't see X's name and lifespan but they claim to be a human."

Quickhammering in general to silence their results is even more scum.

[Chara]

aren't those the rules from the anime? i don't think that means they automatically apply to this game. lifespans are also not a thing in this game as far as i can see.

[Chara]

Just as a reminder:
- Shinigami Eyes report the name and lifespan of whoever you read with them.
- Shinigami cannot have their names and lifespans read.
- Death Note users cannot have their names and lifespans read.

these rules are what i'm referring to in my other post.

[Chara]

also insta-hammering those who take the eye deal is silly.

[RCEnigma]

Obviously people that take the deal feel like they can use it successfully.

[Chara]

Why?

Because the wagon will either keep going or fizzle out. Either way we can get some action!

while i understand the sentiment, this isn't a good way to apply pressure if you state it. i'm pretty sure 3 of the votes on this wagon are now explicitly sheep/bandwagoning votes which are less useful for making Mord or any possible buddies squirm.

but it's a fine wagon in spite of that. just something i wanted to say. it also makes it easier for scum to do this if town decide to do it.

Eva's claim is legit

Legit, as in she's Ryuk? Or as in she cannot be flipped?

Also, why would you check some who said they cannot be revealed anyway?

[Ryuk]

Be here soon. It may take some time but it’ll happen today

Why are you asking this question?

[Almost50]

Because I want to understand his statement?? Why WOULDN'T I ask this question?

Because it's blatant rolefishing?
