This doesn't give scum viable counterplay, if the scum move dunn's pack to them and the masonry doesn't form, then whoever has dunn's pack is outed.

Notably, there aren't necessarily 2 masons, but it still seems like a dumb risk for scum to take.

Did Dunn claim he had TWO Mason shots on his card??

Hi there!
Fair warning, while I really love the setup's concept, I've not actually taken the time to research the current iteration of the setup which was made the Open that it is in this game.
Which is to say, in a game where everyone starts with roles, and thus knowing whether to take one or pass it on is important, I've not done my research yet and I need to.
I'll be contributing more once I've actually read the exact setup down to its finer intricacies. I know the basics obviously but I need to read up on the finer specifics of the final form of the setup before delving into things more deeply.
I'm not sure whether I should prioritize doing that before reads or give reads now and do that later, but either way, I'm probably not doing the mech-reading until tomorrow (it's kinda late tonight, I'm a bit physically miserable thanks to mosquito bites* which is actually the reason I logged onto mafiascum tonight, so I am not in the shape to do the mechreading to lock things down until Wednesday at the earliest).
With that said, I'll decide between "do reads tonight and prioritize them over mech" or "prioritize mech over reads, and wait to post more until tomorrow" after I,
1: post this, and,
2: have a bathroom break as I have a sudden urge/need to.

Spoiler: Details of the mosquito bite situation (spoilered both for length, offtopicness, and also potentially triggering content
Something I genuinely am wondering if there is a way to find out if this is a just-me thing or if it happens to others even if it is not universal;
When I get mosquito bites, they send the exact same message to my brain as a scratch does. As in, this is a signal my brain interprets as, "this area is itchy because it is bleeding".
The itchy part for mosquito bites, sure, yes, that is fairly universal--but when I say literally identical to a wound like a scratch, I mean it; it's not just itchy with a mosquito bite, it's itchy + mild pain + sensation that
I am currently bleeding
in that spot. Not "oh you WERE bleeding there" (even tho that's technically more accurate), "you ARE currently bleeding, right there".
I'm wondering if mosquito bites sending the exact same message to my brain as an open wound is something unique to me or something others experience, mostly because I also want to know if my experience when I have ~12-16 mosquito bites in close proximity to each other in the area I got them (knee/thigh area) is just me or experienced by others--namely?
That instead of the issue being the itch from that many mosquito bites, the issue being that every waking second,
my body is telling me that I am badly bleeding from the legs
, and the psychological torture that is inflicting on me, since one mosquito bite telling me that is easy to override but literally over a dozen telling me that is something that I can't ignore.
My brain is literally, every time I receive the feedback signal from my legs, projecting the image that
I am leaking blood with it pouring down my legs
, even if I am staring at my legs and they are telling me the signal is wrong.

If any other town player sees mason at some point this game with me alive, they should take it
Nah, I turned around. You’re left. It’s been a while since I looked at the deck, but I don’t remember any particular tricks as important. Dunn should probs not pick mason (we might can turn it into a parity cop), but I need to think on this. See y’all tomorrow.

Also,
HELLO HOUSE
. Yup. Sure is. I was planning on voting you of the bat, but you seem to have beat me to it. I'll need to think of someone else to RVS (problem is I've got something on almost each and everyone here, so I ... WAIT!)

ALSO long time
Smartest vote in the game so far.
I've skimmed so little and I got a 10 hr of work today and tomorrow so uh
Infinity I need to know why Dunn is town and is it largely based off mechanics that I still need to read for comprehension?

So this isn't S/S. Cyrus rejects the benefit of the doubt and while I have no history on Dw's games or style I don't know why he would half-ass a vouch for Cyrus when Infinity is practically the only pressure to him.
But I do want to know why Cyrus thinks Dw is competent as scum, and what he would personally watch out for.

I like the mechtalk so far and that is unusual for me.

We know how far the scumteam chooses to pass. So giving a little bit of information is probably helpful, since than we can see what scumteam does with that info, (as opposed to scumteam going only off their starting hands, which we do not know.) Especially for a card like mason, which town having accountability over is good.
The roles that are currently in play are the only ones available in the game. They will not change over time. Once picked, they are removed from the packs. You can only pick a single role from your pack each night. Picking happens first, before any other actions resolve.

Peachy.
At least the mechanic what saw my demise last time isn't here.

Something about infinity's mech talk in pinging me as townie here but also do you have more reads than the Dunn one?
