You are so bad at this game. Lord Jesus.

Or you're scum.

I can only walk horse-Wisdom to the waters of critical thinking. I cannot make him drink.

When the game ends, I hope you either appreciate the flaws in your approach or acknowledge the extent to which you were personally carried by piratemollie.

dude i rarely ever get lynched as town, like hell I'll attribute my towniness to someone else

this sounds like total bullshit

My role EXPLICITLY says that I will receive a 1-shot ability upon self-inventing. There is no reason for it to state that unless there is benefit by putting inventing off.

You must understand that standard practice would have been to just say something like : "Upon inventing you receive an ability".

Instead it said that I would receive a 1-shot ability. There is a reason for that.

I know that we might have been overthinking this and that there is a chance that the role would have been the same all along. But the wording implies there is something going on.

Unless you can think of a scum role that self-targets, I think letting Iec track me is a pretty safe course of action.
Of course there is chance of scum RB and such but still

That's forced. How do you get this by "you will receive an ability"?

but that's what it says? What's the difference?

ignoring the fact you're asking me to let the scum tracker track you

what would tracking you accomplish?

The difference is that a role that is supposed to be completely hidden from you is announced as being 1-shot.

Think from the mod's perspective.
This is the only way he can hint at that putting off the inventing might be beneficial.

Seeing me target myself?

Uh, I don't see what it is about the wording that really implies it's a good idea to delay it insofar as you have explained it.

I guess you can't really quote the role PM, though.

Re: it proving something, you could just be the scum version of your own role. It would prove that you can target yourself, but that's just kinda uniformly rare rather than rare for scum in particular I think.

And? That would make you town because?

Also, no. It is a completely forced conclusion that 1-shot means "stronger the later it is used".

pedit: @tier

I feel like if the Mod wanted a role whose invention gets better over time, he would just say as much in the role PM. Because most players would just use it N1 and he would waste all his potential balancing adventures for later.

Everyone in this game seems comfortable doing so.

We are hoping that waiting before inventing will give me a better role, seeing that my role PM explicitly says my action will be 1-shot. Because of this, I have not yet invented and am looking to do so this night.

Tell me something, Tier. Let's say I believe you. Let's say you are telling the truth. Let's even say that things ARE like you and your team believe and you are going to get a stronger role for waiting.

When exactly are you going to use that role? After we lose the game in lylo?

Oh nevermind. I guess you implied you receive the role immediately.

When can you use the invention?

Because they don't like me and it's nice insulting me by saying "we only townread you because mollie". There's no way anyone would scumread me even if there was no mollie.

although everything is possible with this playerlist

Guys I decided that I practicallly don't care
This is, in my opinion, a 1v1 between Gice and Iece.

VOTE: iece

End of story.
Step by step.

Whatever happened to that hard-on you had for lynching T-Bone that impressed everyone?

You know, the other player who is relevant to the "one power role is scum" set-up spec, and the one who has the role that actually gives scum a tool for dealing with power-roles once they find them.

Once they find them by being inadvertently given amnesiac tracker results (me) or knowledge from the loud doctor(Rhinox), for example.

But dont hammer yet cuz ot appears i neglectes my teams pt and MS has wrote stidf there

Alternatively, if what you mean is that there's a 1v1 between Grey and me for being scum with T-Bone, just help me "bus" T-Bone.

I wish I had meta on whether Wisdom can't do critical thinking as town. He described himself as "stubborn" in is wiki, maybe related. The willful selective ignorance is intense.

Same with shos, but it's willful selective ignorance of his OWN content.
