ok, if it's every night for the rest of the game, that's pretty good. if it's just one then no.

Scum will still be able to submit their actions via PT, but that's all they'll be limited to--any post containing anything other than action submission will be deleted and any attempt to create a 'code' will result in a modkill.

If there was a puzzle that was still to be solved the Parlimanent is the obv go too choice.
But its likely Gamma/Baku just go in the hood and we get hardly any new information at all.

Disabling Mechs sounds great but as described in the mechanics posts, their usages are situational.
Not to mention if we disabled night chat and make the window of time they have to talk as limited as possible, then we're already forcing wolves to make suboptimal actions

I hope everyone likes the formatting of their new role PMs. Again, if you can't read the table, please let me know.
I'm also making a post here because Arby's made a Gundam related tweet today and it's uncanny how it syncs up with this game:

beeboy just complimented Varsoon's dedication to moderation, because he bought Arby's ad space on twitter.
obviously this is the most important information to relay.

UC 0087 EARTH SPHERE STRATAGEMS:

Please vote on one of the following Stratagems:


The Titan Offensive :
The Scum Team loses access to their Night Chat.
Operation Maelstrom :
The Scum Team loses access to all of their 'Mobile Suit' abilities for the Day and Night.
Parliament at Dakar :
A special PT is opened with 4 players in it; at least one of the players in the PT is guaranteed to be Scum.
Titan Offensive is the worst option here and shouldn't be considered

Between the other two, I vote for Parliament as our best choice
Parliament
is the perfect way to create a dichotomy at the moment, and that is the last thing town needs. There is too much probability of WIFOM being created if we have a pool outside of the information we've already acquired based on flips.

It's also not a secret that there are plenty of PTs, which does not quite help here?

With
Maid Cafe's
townflip via NK, I feel that his case and his reads are more reliable.

Also,
Titan Offensive
is literally one of the most debilitating things that could be done to scum in this game. That literally weakens their ability to communicate within themselves upon the end of a day, and works to make them implode. Can you elaborate on why it's not a good option?
In post 4517, Chara wrote:also i agree, Titan is the least fun thing you could have picked. boo.
VOTE: Parliament
this game doesn't have enough PTs is the problem. i think it should have more.

pedit: if the game is won already it shouldn't matter, so let's just go with the most interesting one.
:roll: We're not going for fun, we're going for results. :P

Just daytalk is much better for town than BOTH daytalk and nighttalk.

Like

Literally 100% of the time these are true.
A50 = Scum
Baku = Scum
Gamma = Scum

Venmar is probably just the last scum in this team.
Another important thing that needs to be established before we go full titan.

By Piling on votes on Titan, we are agreeing that
A. As soon as this phase is over, we naked vote ASAP Baku.
B. We then do the same with Gamma as soon as the next day starts
C. We keep on doing this until there is 1 wolf remaining, then we just stop because at that point Titan because useless.

In post 4077, Maid Cafe wrote:I am going to go slow for a bit I have new things to say as well I just dwant to take this piece by piece.

We have a guilty on A50 and
A50 claiming to save Baku makes it highly likely Baku is scum since I was literally pushing Baku as though I had a guilty.
In addition them creating there hoods very close to EoD means they knew the day was ending

So playwise I take issue with them as well but does anyone not just understand these reasons?
In post 4086, Maid Cafe wrote:Gamma hasnt really been playing to his town game at all.
He wad disconnected all of day 1, mainly the same thing day 2.

Night 1 he chose to track {A50, Chara, Me, Bronya} which really just feels like him claiming 3 of his scum tracks. Generally he has just ignored or treated his targets as town which I think is a disconnect from a player who submitted those actions. And him explaining his role was dodgy af.
(I am not sure how the above is not enough he simply just isnt playing like town gamma and has non sensical actions.)

In addition Varsoon is a mod who will check synergies and make sure his game just isnt strictly broken. Varsoon would easily miss checking to see if scum and town roles are broken together while designing multiple games over night.

Our pacifist role is we can target 5 people and check to see if they preformed an action night 1. Gamma can claim before us so there isnt overlap so us + Gamma can check like 9 different slots + ourselves which is 11/15 slots. So i dont really think us and Gamma coexist mechanically since we basically so the same thing and we do it over way too many slots in addition to the vast amount of play based reasons that make him scum 100% of the time.

In post 4509, Chara wrote:also i don't have my IC. incredible. i'd thought Iconeum solved it but i was told i didn't get a best friends PT with every living player. even if that meant Snarky (who was treestumped), the PT with Iconeum should have gone through and it did not.

i had a win condition attached to that IC going off. it was extra. i failed it apparently, so no win for me. sorry for wasting time.

this is a reminder to anyone who didn't bookmark them that all my PTs are still active, and will remain active. and yes, i still have my PT with Maid Cafe. this is information the mafia has if they know how to read, which i assume they do. if they don't, here's your free reminder that death is fake.

i also still have a PT with Almost50, in case he has anything to say. haha.
Venmar's probably ascetic so lol.

That being said, I think disabling scum mechs is better. We all pilot mechs and get confirmed. Don't hold me to it but first blush seems op.

Wait Dunn used a mech already?

We can also let the people we have as lock scum use abilities or get a rock solid guilty.

Titus talk to Chara you're not alone.
Plus Chara can transfer over to me if you need my imput.

pedit: No I'm saying I think its hard to actually prove who used mechs.

Actually let me reread mechanics
