This doesn't make sense given what you've said about your role?
It does. If I don't get sharded, I don't get my friendly neighbor abilities thus I cannot confirm my claim. This, in theory, would keep me in the miselimination pool longer. Scum want me in the pool, but they make the choice to go further from their wincon. It suggests scum don't want me to confirm myself (suggesting I am town) as scum would want to shard themselves. The only reason scum wouldn't shard me is to keep me in the pool which suggests I am town.
How many shards do you need to get the FN/become demonic again?

To elaborate further, scum would have to forgo making other people demonic to hide the fact I got a shard in your scenario. The risk of the announcement exposes that as a bad idea as town might have a compulsive shard giver. This also could be caught by investigating people. It's a bad plan.

What did this mean?
I was supposing everyone only needed one shard to be demonic, since my role PM didn't say. There's talk of two shards being needed though.

It looked to me like you were claiming to have started with 1 shard and were assuming everyone does. That's why I grumbled about reading the setup info.

No. I did not start with a shard. I can see the confusion with the wordings there. I was referring to 1 shard being needed not that I was in possession of a shard.

And I was highly skeptical that someone with a demonic ability to become mod confirmed town would start the game with 1 shard.

Titus, a few things when you have time:
At one point you were scumreading Spiffeh. Where are you on him now?
Same question on STD.
Did you ever play with AA9 back in the day?

Rhea: I'll start with my impression of LLD as a player overall. I don't see her as someone who has conversations with people who aren't her elim targets with the goal of having her mind changed. She engages with those people to make them believe her point of view, as town or scum. To me it probably doesn't much matter if Rhea's the one playing; I'm seeing the same kind of approach here from her. Her reachouts of 'talk to me' are 'ask me questions so I can tell you what you should be thinking.' I think I wish I was seeing more of a freely-chosen target choice more often from her here. Maybe someone else can frame this better. In terms of her alignment here, I'm leaning town but don't have anything shiny to point to in support of that. Just a 'surprised Rhea makes the plays she does here as scum' feeling.

LLD deciding she wants to do this is not likely random or deliberate. It's just a rarely seen side of LLD.
I still feel she's likely right on ManateeGal regardless of alignment
Low rate of posting when present, prodded frequently.
Given the pace of the game, I am surprised AA9 has posted this much.
Do you think the nature/depth of the lurk is AI for her?
I don't understand this question. I'm going to guess though.
I feel the content AA9 has tried to give is townier than the last game I played with her when she was scum, see Large Normal 234.
You said you're surprised she's posting "this much", which suggests "more than I'm used to", and I wanted to know if that's AI to you. This post suggests that if not the quantity/frequency, the content itself is AI.

Yes. That's correct.

I feel I need to reread Madea due to LLD reaching out to me. LLD usually rages at me, so I'll give her a chance
