Dusa, can you explain what the demigod stuff means? I think it's the only thing I don't understand in the thread so far.

I haven't read anything yet.
Just a few notes on setup and I will likely not be talking about the setup to focus on scumhunting/townhunting because while I might be thinking about mech in the back of my mind, I don't want to deter from actually sorting the game and being a distraction from the core principle of finding the baddies.

I think spending more study time early in this game is better than later to minimize scum power now and later we spend less time studying for more power and scum having more power later isn't as big of concern. At least thats my headspace, and me saying I am very likely to expend a bigger % to studying as of now until i think it will be better later. I don't intend to argue with anyone on best strat with this, unless i think their motivation seems to be scummy in some way or manipulative. But I doubt scum would show their hand so early to argue something their townselves wouldn't at least agree with.

So that being said:

I'd like to requests statements rather than questions unless casing someone aggressively. Let's not make this confusing and hard to read.

I think Dannflor is upset that ina marija is not making it fun to have bravado! Dannflor is a son of Zeus for sure.
This frustration makes me think he has not actually caught ina that much!

The post quoted and osuka response are the only things interesting i found on page 1. The first is performance by Dusa, the reaction by Osuka is also a bit odd in response to it. Its a joke response but also a poor joke response. Kind of want to lean scummy in the response but its closer to NAI. Just find it a bit awkward

I will also be ignoring Ranger for almost this entire game btw. Most likely skim or ignore 90% of her posts

If you want reasons i will say its a blackhole that nothing ever gets out of. Prefer to read around Ranger and see how everyone interacts with her.
