I'd like a poem too!

I'd like a kthx claim, instead.

Firstly, no. If you are a role that receives a response (like, here's your neighborhood QT, you can start talking tomorrow night), you get a PM saying you failed. If you didn't, it would be unclear whether or not the mod simply forgot to inform you of your results, which would be bad for several reasons.

If neighborizing doesn't receive a response, then 1342 becomes very suspicious. Why wouldn't he think the neighborization went through?

In my experience, the only time you'd get a response is as an investigator.

You might be right, but why did you think it failed? I'm thinking it's vaguely possible everything went fine and bert is just bad at reading PMs.

I didn't get one.

I accidentally deleted my role PM shortly after marathon concluded, as it got lost in the fray of Marathon role PM's.

... does anyone else think the scumteam would be certifiably insane to block a neighborizer, especially with kaze already having claimed better than vanilla? This seems crazy to me, but it kind of sounds like everyone might be telling the truth

I got prodded and Bert isn't dead. Need I say more?

As for my claim, I'm Christa Renz and I know that Ymir is in this game and I will be very passively sad if he dies. I also have a 3D maneuver and another ability that I haven't figured out how to use effectively against scum or for the benefit of town but it isn't 1 shot....I just chose not to use it last night.

You know we're full claiming, right?

that's as full a claim as you're going to get. The ability I'm not talking about is an ability I'm not talking about for a reason beneficial to town and not scum. Deal.

BRO's "ORATIO IN L. CATILINAM PRIMA" is so brilliantly sounding, BRO I'm impressed man

Who are you referring to with 'everyone'?

Why is this crazy to you???

@mod can you fix the spoiler tags in the above post so that it doesn't bog down the thread?

Let me know when you guys are done with the mass claim stuff.

@muffinati:

what's the flavor for your ability?

On the outside, I appear to be a brilliant tactician who makes up for me lack of physical ability with me amazing intellect, but when I be alone I have these... urges... dark and sinister thoughts control me. Sometimes I cut meself. I know I need help, but I don't know who to reach out to. I be secretly jealous of Eren for being in the spotlight and I have very low self-esteem. It can't be helped, though. When I was just a whee kid, all the other kids made fun of me for looking like a girl. I CAN'T HELP IT IF I LIKE TO WEAR PINK DRESSES. Pink is a really pretty colour, and dresses make me feel free, make me feel alive. I don't know why I joined the Scouting Legion. I'm afraid of titans. I'm afraid of death. I think I cut meself because I crave attention. Nobody even likes me and I'm an insignificant character. But ye know what? I don't care. Fuck ye all. If I die, I'm taking one of ye fuckers down with me.

I wish you hadn't said that. Now I kinda want to.

Apparently the anime didn't reach far enough to cover Armin's quirks. o.o

Or it's a fanfiction tangent...?

fanfiction tangent, based on brief research.

Vengeful claim actually makes muffin slot a reasonable lynch, but I'd rather see mastin swing.

I think the pasch thing will work itself out given an additional day. I'm not sure what to conclude from it any more.

I think bro and kthx overstated the mechanically conf-town aspect of their roles, though. I see absolutely no disadvantage to only being able to hammer, other than to thwart VCA (so this ability could be seen as a boon for scum). It's actually pretty powerful in town hands too: you could easily use it to make it look like someone got to L-1/L-2, then watch the poor scum attempt to quickhammer in lylo.

So, shall we continue lynching the caught scum?

Which one?

btw, pie is nearly conf-town for being the only vanilla.

Oh, there's more than one now?

pie isn't nearly anything, in my opinion. This can just as easily be a game full of PRs as it could be a game with one single vanilla.

I'm having a hard time imagining a scenario in which mastin isn't scum.

p-edit: Having a vanilla is more than just convention, it's even a requirement for "Normal"-ness (which this game isn't, but still). I find it hard to believe there are zero vanillas, yet scum were given a vanilla fake-claim.
