i'm claiming gossippee, i target a player and get told how many actions targeted them that night and get a reaction to it

night 1 i targeted titus and was told one person visited her but the result (which i will fullclaim as soon as i double check that i can) didn't seem to match up with april's claim

my n2 has info that's probably better not outing until a massclaim or something happens

as for reads i have not fully caught up on the day but jjh saying "i'll post more during the weekend" and then not posting makes me uncomfy

I said treat it as if it was your last post, mate. Claim ALL the info you have now, please. It may help me decide whom to execute (at the very least it may convince me to spare you)

What do you mean "not posting" Chemist

I've been doing a combination of catching up and posting

Is there any context at all about what the reaction might mean? Why does that reaction not match up with April's claim?

it's indicative of what ability/abilities get used on the target

i assumed that meant some sort of protective or otherwise positive action was used on titus

Hm. It specifically relates to the ability used, rather than the person who used it?

barring ninja shenanigans yes

so if anyone else has claimed to have targeted one of those two they're lying

I need to finish the catchup and bring everything together. My gut is objectively wrong as it conflicts with info from this part of the game, so I don't think it's worth me putting any of those reads on paper at present

This is helpful.

Also, Grandma had a bad morning so I'm not sure how much I'll be posting today.

I think Norwe would be a better BP protect than A50 just because I can see A50 aiming for the harder win condition because he's a cool character like that.

I think for at least 3 separate reasons, A50 not being a realistic option for a scumkill is better for town than Norwee not being a realistic option for a scumkill

The next time you confuse my faction with Titus' I will deviate from the plan, disregard all recommendations and execute you instead. It's not that hard to check who is in which faction.

Can you talk about why you picked Titus then me? I want to see why.

On jjh?

Nothing.

Scum-jjh used to be lurker-jjh, BUT, that meta is thoroughly obsolete, as not only,
1: has scum-jjh proven he can and will be a not-lurker, but also,
2: town-jjh has repeatedly time and time again demonstrated that he can and will be a lurker.

So jjh being a lurker here? By play is completely and utterly dead-null.

In terms of contributions for however sparse they may be though?

Still town, because:

Given scum had a 1x alien, I liked this take on things even if the player he was using the logic on was town. (Basically, a good take.)

Are these strong reasons to townread jjh off of play?

Oh hell no, of course they're not. They're borderline-rvs-levels of "town indicators, but weak town indicators", because jjh hasn't given a lot.
But given the mechanical reasons are fairly strong...

Mastina, me calling Menalque a mafia roleblocker was memeing

The roleblocker half was the meme half
Menalque rolls roleblocker more often than statistically likely

I was looking to vote elsewhere at that point in the game but finding the time to commit to mafia now is harder than it used to be
