yea I can send a message to someone starting on night two

I'm not sure what's the point of my role if there isn't a scum ascetic to catch

I was thinking of just sending love letters to Dats but I don't think that's what the mod had in mind.

I guess it could be a red herring role designed to make me think bad thoughts.

Might as well Day 1 massclaim at this point.

Not as familiar with the mechanics, unclear whether you'd even get confirmation that it didn't go through. Two ascetics is also not out of scope.

Not super confident in my setup spec abilities, but it appears that Ari is town, so at least there's that.

I mean there could be 2 mafia ascetics in the game and town gets a novice mailman that acts as a semi-checker but not really

Not really. Aristeia's use is actually valid, point isn't that she gets confirmation point is that it can be used to inadvertantly catch someone hiding.

My first game onsite had two town ascetics, one town one mafia is fine and actually disincentivizes claiming it as mafia if they get beat to it.

from a mod POV

if I put a town ascetic into the game with a town novice mailman

and town ascetic claims d1 cuz that's correct play for town ascetic.

and draws push from town novice mailman

it feels somewhat like a setup

and there should be additional town power to compensate for this wild goose hunt that FL is putting us on

Idk, if I was town ascetic, I'd just assume it was a false result investigative. (Admittedly, I haven't even looked up what a mailman does and I'm trusting your description is accurate)

Novice mailman is a pretty strange role no doubt. Why is a mailman so good it needs to be nerfed?

I once put a scum mailman into a setup to give a scum player that the traffic analyst couldn't guilty

I can send messages to people starting on Night 2

It's literally a useless role except to catch Mafia Ascetic.
