I believe people are theorizing that when you die, you are transported to another game thread.

So that would require this one to be entirely flipless?

And it would always have like 3 people in it, and sometimes scum majority, and sometimes no scum at all?

That's an interestingly specific theory.

I think kyouko is the only one who has mentioned this thread being flipless if it is true.

But plenty of people have been theorizing the idea that death in this thread just isekais you somewhere.

This is to make sense of the "death is final?" Rule. And to explain where gif is disappearing to. And to make sense to why we have so many killing roles.

Theorizing is fun SS. Don't you wanna have a good time?

Oh. If Titus did let it slip that there is a gravedigger in this game, that would make the thread flipless tho, right?

Okay. But that is you information.

This is what I can find about what TITUS would have meant with the role

Subject: The Gravedigger Quicktopic
Titus wrote:
Town and scum usually learn nothing.

You, as the gravedigger, will be informed of the roles of anyone who dies during the day. You will be notified the next night. Nothing can stop this.

That is mod Titus. Explaining the gravedigger role. To a gravedigger role in a Titus modded game

Cool cool.

Why are you so set on speaking for Titus ?

Because this was a confusion that I'm pretty confident I know the truth about and I can help to explain.

But why? Titus is seemingly dead. And you are seem to be of the opinion that she is going to flip.

And how are you "pretty confident" that you know her intent? Did you see my quote?. Do you know of a game where Titus has encountered the type of gravedigger that you are talking about?

But now, instead of Titus just explaining directly, you are creating an alternative answer for her.

Actually, I just found a game with Titus and a gravedigger. That gravedigger was a tracker/watcher miller

@Titus

I'd also like to hear more about "reservations" within your reads list as well as what you meant by Gravedigger and Tracker earlier?

I think it's, uh, very obvious from context? If the word can mean two things, one of which has nothing to do with what's been claimed and the other of which is the exact role claimed by a player, and Titus is directly responding to that player's claim and saying she doesn't believe it, then I don't think there's much ambiguity in "I doubt you're a gravedigger."

Yes, I was aware that the term has multiple meanings. Many words have multiple meanings in English.

I wasn't aware of any specific game she'd played in with it, but I knew what it was despite never playing with it, and she's been around a lot longer than me.

Whatever. I still don't understand why you felt the need, multiple times, to do that since Titus appears to be dying today with no way to stop it. Seems pointless

Spoiler:
unless you are acting under the belief that Titus won't actually die here

I guess the GD is answered, so is Tracker one of your JOAT abilities? Knowing there are possibly 3 killing abilities, does Tracker still seem "ridiculously gated"? My guess is depending on overlap and alignment of dead players, you would be able to use it somewhat soon.

If this thread is flipless it has interesting implications for Manatee's and Titus's roles. Both of their roles inform them of the alignment of a player in some way. Titus would know how many dead players are town by how many points she earned after a set of flips. Manatee's vigshot kills a random "townie" - indicating it can be used as a cop for the 2nd world if we play it that way
