Question regarding outside influence

[Gypyx]

What if I take copious amounts of DPH and the Hat Man comes to me and tells me a player is scum? Is he an outside influence or are hallucinations considered a part of me?

well, given that yes your allucinations are your own, but that DPH is an outside substance, and therefore influence, you would need to create some yourself in order to be under the site rules

hope this is helpful

But then you've outlawed drunkposting during games.

as long as you make your own drinks / hydra with someone who knows how to make them it's fine

Technically speaking, if you made it yourself, that would be illegal, and, therefore, outside the law, and, therefore, an outside influence. First, you would need to obtain the proper certification, lab equipment, and also be hired by a pharmaceutical firm to be able to legally produce diphenhydramine, and then you would have to make it yourself, and then track the produced and packaged batch to a store, and re-purchase it over-the-counter, then return back to your private residence and take copious amounts of it.

Very complicated.

In addition, if someone else were to make the DPH you were to consume and you were to glean potential game information from the altered state produced from it, it would be considered an outside influence in the conventional sense – someone assisted you in gleaning game information.

However, this can be seen as up for debate and interpretation of the courts, as you were

technically

the one to come up with the information, but then that information is also up for interpretation as well, as someone assisted you in the creation of the state in which you got this information. It's like a 1-shot Role Cop Enabler when the Role Cop is a Hidden Vig – is the Enabler responsible for the killing that the Role Cop did?

Also, I don't recommend playing a game requiring logic and coordination while high off your ass, but, hey, you do you.

dude, i'd totally break the law if that allowed me to scumhunt properly

look, we're playing a game where we murder peoples, i don't think that's too problematic

[Gypyx]

eh, pretty sure mobbing and executing someone is illegal lol, especially without solid proof

Only being a member of an organized crime family is illegal. But not if you're in charge. Also milling grains.

also, living next to more than 1 person probably means there's a baddie among y'all
