I enjoy mass flavorclaims.
But I enjoy massclaims in general.
Pros- There might be some role interactions with regards to flavor, it limits claims down the line,
it quells my curiosity as to who you all picked
, and maybe if all the stars align and we pay a blood sacrifice we could catch scum? (I doubt a upick will have its flavors be alignment indicative without solid fakeclaims in place.)
Cons- There's probably some roles that, thanks to flavor, are inherently overpowered and claiming characters will give scum (provided they have an inkling of knowledge of the source material this game was based off of) a road map on who to kill. (Of course, this could be balanced out by town power, and of course is purely conjecture)
I think it's a good way people to do things without actually doing things though.

Also on the list of distractions is playing guess the alt.
It's kinda sad that these are things I know I love to do in games.
Uhm i asked what prevents players from claiming to be a hero they are not?

I don't think I've ever seen "us" be used as "Us, the mafia" before
Beyond that, It's pretty scummy to make a big deal out of it. I know from experience this kind of accusation tends to be bought by that one guy who then tunnels on it for the whole game so this goes well beyond rvs

Is this about Seiko or Syryana?
I think Seiko was just trying to create discussion. Syryana jumping the gun is alarming for me, but if someone has meta on him about his <page 5 voting tendencies that would be appreciated.

I think seiko is scummy there too. That's not rvs, that's early shade on something that wasn't scummy. A false slip
Syryana's hop on doesn't inspire confidence, either

Well, "us" is better to go on right now than "he lewd".

What exactly about "us" lends to the inference of "us, the scumteam i am on" vs "us, the playerlist"

In fact there's evidence to the latter. He says us three times in that post and the context is clear

We're a three-person secret hydra, for what it's worth.
Our heads are:
Bemmit
Bubbles
Raven
All unsigned posts so far have been Bemmit.

Good point. UNVOTE: Charloux

Dunnstral, I don't think it was a slip, but what harm does having an early wagon do?

Feel free to start an early wagon that isn't based off a disgusting misrep. You should be wagoning one of sekio and Syryana. Why aren't you? What harm does having an early wagon do? Why does it have to be on Charloux, in your opinion?

Meh my current meta is getting a PR and being forced to claim D1 because i've been scummy. Kinda like a curse.

Charloux already has votes. Stopping the wagon drains momentum from the game. You aren't using your vote - choose someone else and I'll join you.
