do u actually think ur going to get someones alignment from what numbers they picked. Or from all the history of this setup u looked at has anyone found scum from the draft numbers.

I personally don't care that much its a quasi funny intro to talk about the game but other than that its background noise to me.

It knows that this was likely said in jest but it is now interested in what your opinion on the draft outcome is, if you do infact have one?
let me divine the holy chart

marginally higher odds of yes/jake being a wolf. picking a higher number to avoid duplication means you could grab at least one role. i was going to say that "this holds more weight if there's a wolf in the duplicated low numbers" but that's like half the table so i think that is moot. there probably is one in there from past experience with the setup.

that's all i have to offer they can't tell me more until some people die

It is assuming this is in jest, since it doesn't think that VT is a valid draft submission, even if you do end up receiving VT if you are outdrafted? Or are you truly able to say "I do not wish to claim a role"? That would be an interesting thing to do.

also i think that like every single iteration that i've played of this setup or almost all of them there's been at least one person who goes "noooo the draft means nothing ignore it" but then we used the draft to solve the game or made it easier at some point so there's that

It thinks it is a waste to leave information on the table when that information can assist us. That said, it doesn't think that the information itself is a useful tool for deciding our direction.

It is of the opinion that using that information as a Blade to delve into how others respond and play around it, like a sword dance, is valuable.

You don't watch the sword, you watch the footwork the sword forces to see the true intent of your opposition.

a gray cat

I think if she was a warrior cat they would regret naming her before her eyes changed color because yellow is a historically good prefix for cats imo but she'd be something dumb and new age like softpelt or whatever. what does that say about a cat's abilities? nothing.

cant remember. I dont think so though. At least not anyagonizing you in particular. I usually try to push everyone at some point regardless of alignment cause thats the most fun way to play the game to interwct with everyone.


But then its extra fun to ignore some people or treat others with extra attention. Just to mess with everyone universally, not jsut the people im interacting with

She is a calico. Black mainly, orange (mainly on her chest its cute) and then some gray and white and brown

Shes a real cutie. My sister’s cat looks similar too. Calico with same colors. Green eyes though.

Im quite the fan of cats.

i couldn't tell at the time so i just wrote it off as u being u.
I guess i will continue with that assumption.

The big mystery still remains of that game of what enchant was going to tell me but then never did tell me.
