@rad, this is a picture of juliet.

She is kinda badass. She beats the shit out of and kills several people.

Badass could equal macho I guess

What a stretch…trying to match flavor to roles is dumb. My characters flavor has zero to do with my role.

I feel like my role matches my flavor.

And all of the hoods are flavor based.

And juliet is in flavor a doctor. And sayid makes perfect sense as a role cop. (His stick is extractong info from people)

I assumed you were hurley based on the role tbh

There are actually multiple people who talk to dead people in this show. I find it hard to believe your flavor would not be one of them

This would mean that episodes are unrelated to the roles actually.

Because that is before it is revealed he can talk to dead people.

Episode titles in role pms appear to just be chosen based on episodes which that character is the pov character for the flashbacks.

But the character flavor matches role ability pretty 1 to 1

The modnliterally advertised that this would be the case.

And that he was making the roles based on the flavor before he determined the alignment of the flavor.

So I imagine juliet was set as a doctor. And then if bella is scum, she became a scum doctor.

It actually means that all of the scuns roles should be safe to true claim probably

idk - I didn’t see the advert. I was asked to join. Makes sense I guess since only alignment flips though.

4. Mafia is not determined by flavor. That means roles were mostly selected at random to determine which roles would be mafia.

Let's put some more thought into this.
Mafia's not determined by flavor
, meaning bad guys in the show aren't necessarily scum here, good guys aren't necessarily town.

Roles were
mostly
selected at random to determine which roles would be mafia.
This part doesn't really make sense to me so let's think it through... First - "mostly". Ok so "some" roles may have been selected specifically to be town or specifically scum. Maybe doc is just town no matter what? And we could have, say, a day-shot vig who's scum cause it was random? Along with most other roles, but maybe some are just town or just scum.

So I could see this designed as... assigning specific roles to certain flavor, then randomizing the roles that could be scum (with some roles that CANNOT be scum), and then assigning to players.

That could make a doc like Juliet *just* town.

So question for longer time players. Have you seen scum-docs before on this site?

Alternately, Juliet doesn't necessarily HAVE to be a doc in this game. Someone with knowledge of the show could know she's a doc and allow Bella to claim doc because of that.

Just another thought I wanted to toss out there to consider.

Yes I have seen scum doc.

Actually kinda common in games with a gunsmith, because of their unique interaction (scum doc does not have a gun despite being scum)

I took the "mostly" to mean that he was leaving himself leeway to make changes after the rand if he felt like it was clearly town or scum sided.

Ok so scum doc is possible, cool, good to know.

Let's suppose scum!Bella's doc claim is legit for a moment.

Does scum!Bella the doc target Bell as the one making the kill? Wouldn't scum!Bella the doc target the scum killer in case Bell is POG or something? Or maybe scum has an invest role and scum!Bella the doc sits on them just in case? Why is scum!Bella the doc killing Bell?

Another question:

Does scum!Bella targeting X!scum who's going to kill Bell be seen as visiting Bell or X?
