Memeing.

Here, have a cool song I found

[Rylai and Lina]

No one should take mastina claim as conftown claim

we have reasons to be skeptical about what she claimed for

reasons we don't want to share at the moment

. but there are weird things about the claim.

I'm going to read this pages in detail after getting my tea

~Sora

[Gamma Emerald]

why clai everything now

memeing.

Are you being serious about the claim though?

[NicoRobin]

why clai everything now

memeing.

Are you being serious about the claim though?

Obviously not, since I am memeing. :c

that was a great game cheers for reminding me of it
Jaune Arc was one of my flavour picks

[Gamma Emerald]

I was expecting a troll role when I submitted my picks, and hoh boy did RC not disappoint.

I am Ginngie, Hated Loyal Gladiator

.
Outside of lylo/mylo (which is purely by the numbers, per the role wording), I take one less vote to lynch.
I can gladiate anyone by claiming a guilty on them, but if they're not town-aligned, it'll fail.

I can maybe, MAYBE use this as a conditional cop, IF we can no-lynch after a gladiate (I need to ask RC about this), but if not, yeahhhhh...

Flip the idea: you could discern scum by finding that your action failed.

[jjh927]

I dunno about this memeing thing, I'd give pretty good odds on ace being an arsonist

I think you've missed the part where it's basically a gladiate regardless of whether or not it succeeds

oh god maid cafe is in this game im glad im town this game lol

E X A C T L Y
Though Alisae also kinda busted my ass that game
PEdit: true jjh, if it fails it’s mastina’s word against the target’s.

[Maid Cafe]

Hello everyone, I hope we can have a fun game together!!!

[mastina]

I can't believe that you don't lie as scum

Exercise.

Find a single instance of me lying about my role as scum.
I'll help.
Here's a slightly incomplete list of my recentish scumgames in the last few years. (Highlight: claiming godfather as the godfather, but saying I was a town godfather.)

In every one of those, I claimed my real role (often with real results) or the mod-provided safeclaim.

Exercise.
Find a single instance of me mentioning lying as a pro-scum strategy.
Exercise.
Try to compile the NUMEROUS times--both as town and scum--I have gone on record to state that lying as scum is incredibly stupid because the best weapon is the truth; if you have the truth on YOUR side as scum, you have the advantage over the town because you're being sincere, you're being genuine, you don't have to lie, and that fools tonereaders because by their metric you're tripping all the townbells because you're not actually lying.

I don't lie as scum, because lying as scum would be playing against wincon. It's not that I

can't

lie as scum. It's not that I have a trust tell about lying as scum. It's just that ten times out of ten. It is always tremendously stupid to lie as scum. And within my interests to tell the truth as scum.

Lying as scum gives the town the win.
If you disagree, feel free to try it out yourself. When you next roll scum, try lying about your role, especially in a theme game.
See how well it turns out for you.

anime gifs are a towntell btw

[Gamma Emerald]

So for all purposes Rylai = Frozen Angel = Sora

and Lina = Shiro = Shiro

~Sora

Wait you go by Sora now?

[Gamma Emerald]

Role correlates strongly with alignment

Holy no
Mafia compulsive bodyguard
You lose

[Rylai and Lina]

yes I'm sora and shiro is shiro

[mastina]

Role correlates strongly with alignment

No, it really doesn't and you will be fucked over by thinking otherwise.

The list of actual alignment-specific roles is incredibly small, and even then RC is the type of mod who would bend boundaries by, say, giving a Strongman to the town. (In fact I'm pretty sure a Strongman Vig has indeed been an RC role at least once.)

If you want to win the game, judge others by their play.

Not by their role.

Oh, I can generally lie detect fakeclaims with very good accuracy so I can definitely understand the mentality

I don't think you understand quite how I correlate roles with alignments
