It’a serious, but in a dramatic dry kinda way where it’s tinfoil still, but paranoia takes over.

It basically means I’m getting off vibes in that general direction.

I wanted Bell. Bell was indeed scum. We got taylor instead which on one hand yay, but on the other, getting Bell would have been sweeter because he was a suicide bomber and taylor was a boring traitor that I'd have vigged N1 for the deathy instead.
Ok sure but both were your SRs

This is a skeevy take. It was the right elim given lolmasonry, but his scumread was also dead-right.

~ strange
Ok sure if it's specifically eliming his top scum read day 1 then sure
But to say his SRs are not elimmed D1 is not true
He lifted not one finger to get Tayl0r elimed before we outed the Dethy. He had her in his elim pool, but she wasn't his priority.

Anyway, this is neither here nor there. The here and there are his scumread of you in this game.

I don't, thanks for asking!

Claiming blade in this setup means claiming a power role, effectively, from my understanding.

Why would we ever claim the PR pool to public knowledge?

The pro side to claiming is that drivers and blades can use their powers, whereas they are more likely to incorrectly pair up if they don't claim.

Of course, this can lead to things like all the blades dying, but that takes multiple nights.

Personally, I don't think we should claim, but something to note: Now that multiple blades have claimed, drivers are overwhelmingly likely to target only those blades who have claimed, meaning any remaining blades who don't claim are effectively choosing to do nothing (I'm still not advocating for all blades to claim, there are alternate solutions to this, such as drivers not doubling up so hard on claimed blades)

Good enough for government work today. I'll note it and one of us can bring it back up if it becomes relevant again, I guess.

True. But I think in some cases, given that the mods explicitly called out "Xshots don't get refunds" (which I take to mean pretty much every PR is gonna be gated somehow) and the size of the player list, that it might be okay to have some blades use bide and then hit night two with twice the effective power.
