Loki is named after the original Norse character itself. He does not resort to trickery quite as often but sometimes he waits until Pandora starts eating then pulls the foodbowl to a new position with his paw to pull a fast one on her.
Whoever names their two cats Loki and Pandora is ratwd pretty high in my book

Next person that uses the preflip association word "chainsaw" gets their head in a basket tho
Question for clarity: Are you meaning my case on Gameplay or something else?

Anyway, as for the actual game...
If we assume 4 mafia in a 17p game, and a backup gauge = to half of scum, just like ours, then probably we can assume at least 2 scum will be using their transform powers, and at max 4.
If we want to guarantee transforms, we want a max of 4 townies transforming. But if we go for that, it means scum will be able to get all 4 of their potential night powers.
If we want to force maf to crash their own backup transform gauge if they crash ours, then we want to aim for 6 townies transforming - exactly half of us.
I personally prefer a role madness game to a mountainous, so I suggest we assign all living players an odd-night transform or even-night transform modifier based on wether their player number is odd or even.

I want to be risky and try for a scenario where townies with crappy abilities don't transform and townies with powerful abilities transform and we don't overheat. Worst case scenario our sane cop works every other nightbecause we overheat, best case scenario she acts every night. With the leashing, both best and worst case scenario is every other night.
Pandora and Loki are both represented as dark attribute characters in puzzles and dragons, and are both black. So that's why I picked the names.
Both their mythologies are kind of about subverted expectations.

The issue there is, how crappy do you expect everyone else's abilities to be? How can people judge their own abilities? If we have a gunsmith, should they transform? A tracker? A bodyguard? A motion detector?
Thanks. So we know there are 4 mafia, but not how their backup gauge works? -E

I'd say abilities should be rated as like the NRG would. So cop and watch as probably some of the best, tracker as a lower choice, vig as swingy high power, etc.

Yes, no, no, no
If we mess up it is only as bad as not trying it at all.

Cafe Stile asked what my own opinion on you was. Despite that, you call my reas on you a "sheep". Why is that?

Also some can't transform night 1 possibly throwing things off.

If you guys are gonna plan ahead, might be worth mentioning that we transform automatically, not manually, we cant control it, but it happens on certain conditions that i dont think it's good to share.
At least that's what I understood from all the questions I asked GIF.

I am trying to make the post "more votes on Titus" to summon kitten pics.
But Loki keeps nudging my hand away from the phone which seems ironic.
Votes can be exchanged for images of Loki and Pandora.
VOTE: Titus

My role PM has information that counsels against the even/odd leash, though I think the public info is sufficient anyway
