Probably neither is. Cerbs look like town in his first post and FA is closer to her town play imo. Which is good with FA as leader.
I agree with FA being probably town (and god help this game if she isn't).

hi shiro! miss playing with u bro

Gut reaction to FA being chosen is that we have a WIFOM loop: either FA is scum or scum picked FA because FA was a safe pick to pile votes onto.

Sakura Hana gets first serious FOS from me.
And your gut would be wrong.

I voted Frozen.

Yo, why did you self vote?
I've only made one good post, and don't you dare accuse me of doing it again.

In post 174, Sando wrote:Thoughts on super-hero team mechanics all?

FA can choose up to EOD yeah?

Do we control it ourselves and tell FA who to do
Do we let FA do it as long as it's announced (pre/post overnight)
Do we let FA do it and not announce it
Should the heroes themselves announce their choice (assuming we decide to out who they are)
Should we tell the heroes what to choose
Should we get FA to tell the heroes what to choose (is this allowed? It would require out of game comms I think? So probably not?)
from my understanding of it FA should choose and announce it before night is called, and I think if the heroes can choose their abilities they should actually not instantly claim cause then wolves know what people they should PR hunt first.

but I'll leave the mechanics for those who have read the things properly instead of lazily skimming it.

Not seeing the advantage of FA telling us before nightfall? FA is immune from NKs overnight correct? She can tell us tomorrow unquestioningly I believe and give the scum no info on the heroes she chose. Am I missing something?

Does FA get a power herself or just the people she chooses?

lol, you are. I don't love citizen kane and find it funny it's considered the best movie ever or whatever it is when there's much better film noir and even much better orson welles movies.
One thing about Citizen Kane and then I promise I am off this movie in particular and I will not promise no more movie references because I know I'll never keep that promise. Citizen Kane tells its story really well, and it's genius in cinematography, but I just don't care about the story.

I more care about someone getting a ring from space and then doing whatever happens in that movie. Or that same person unlocking their mutant powers and killing people while making jokes that break the fourth wall.

Anyway, you can be a hero, Toranga, good chillaxed tone here.

you reading me town for that? I mean you're right so maybe that is alignment indicative, but I want to believe I'm entirely capable of talking about movies in a game as a wolf too.

I agree with your take on citizen kane. tbh I didn't finish the movie. wife slept in the middle of it and then I stopped about 20 minutes to end it. I didn't really care. I'm not a big fan of gatsbyian stories anyway.

Why would scum be so relaxed about engaging regarding movies is my thought process.

And also I agree, I recently was telling a friend he's elitist for claiming to have the Great Gatsby as his favorite book.

We were in high school, and it was twelve years ago. And now I actually see him about once every couple of years. So, lame reasons.

I'm not sure if the leader has reasonably high scum equity because that suggests all scum voted as a pack for a scum team mate, which may not be true for associative reasons once everyone declares who they voted for.
My crackpot theory is that they possibly split votes

good. townreading 3 people from the get go is taking a stance on the game and the opposite of fence sitting, which is why I couldn't comprehend what you even meant with it.

I'm not doing any conflict resolution because I'm not townreading two people who are going against each other. I have townread 3 people who went against one poster, who I do not have a townread on, have agreed with one of their posts on a fundamental level but can totally come from scum, and can see why he is being wolfread. that's not trying to resolve conflict or keep anything calm.

in other news, I'm townreading this, as unfitting as it is as a stance to have on my posting so far.
huh? why are you townreading it, I don't see the thread of logic?

I would not pack vote a leader if I was a wolf.

it's hard to tell at what level the wolves are at so I'd rather not be too concerned with this. FA is likely town by her posts, yes?
