The latter.
We actually considered a similar role for Team Mafia (Ali's game), but decided it rewarded different playstyles unfairly.

Oh shit, what is your threshhold for being able to shoot? Gamma has 470 posts somehow.

my argument was that we are prob going to lynch one of Ari or Gamma today thus it means both Ari and Gamma wouldn't be around tonight....

Yeah I remember that being mentioned in team mafia because I got the vig role

Yo Vecna, if you read this could you go into more detail on the message you got from Porkens

Though I do protest that I'm scummy in any way shape or fashion.

There's something I can't talk about here but I want to say I have high confidence Gamma would play babysitter like this as town. That doesn't mean he's confirmed town, that just means I find his claim congruent with his night action choices.
I also noticed him saying he had a killing action earlier and thought it was something that surprised me regardless of alignment since he doesn't usually fakeclaim actions except under real pressure iirc, so him claiming a killing action back on page 1 of his iso seems like he was actually playing to get nightkilled
That being said, his rationale (I saw Gustavo do this) is a bit funny (although not implausible) if only because in the game Gamma is referencing, Gustavo, as babysitter, was babysitting town when Gamma (as scum) tried to kill him lol

Fuck you, I suggested that role.

Porkens can't be the RBer if the idea is that Porkens targeted Vecna last night since {last night's target was not Vecna}
unless I'm misunderstanding something
still don't like post restrictions btw

jj's role in Team Mafia. I suggested it to Ali to replace activity vig and e liked it. He could only shoot someone who had been at L-1 or had hammered during the previous day phase.

What do you think of Jingle assuming 6 scum, slip?

Do we want a proper fullclaim from Lady Angel?
I kinda do tbh

Also, my plan doesn't work, Gamma is the 5th highest posting player in this game. Somehow.

Yeah but it was bad because in practice it meant the only viable targets were all town, but shooting people who would probably get lynched anyway was still generally +ev

In post 7223, Lady Angel wrote:"Dreaming God, Dreamer of Dreams" with "Dreaming God" as the role name. I'm a 1-shot Dreaming God who could only act night 1.
or did she say what the night 1 action was yet?

She claimed a dream name (Prosperity?) and that she has no idea what it's done. Also, Creature has a different number of A's result on her than her claim.

not sure how "town has a lot of power so scum might have more people" is a slip tbh
although I don't know how we can evaluate that without one more scum flip to see what their overall power level looks like, but varsoon's power was pretty strong imo
I do get the impression group scum maybe had something that involved long dayphases which maybe is why mastina spent every game day stalling so much?

Also the discrepancy with Creature is weird because it's flavour name that had the wrong number of As
Creature found 1 A, while LA is claiming to be "Dreaming God, Dreamer of Dreams" which has 3 As

If Nero is killing then it's really unlikely NSG is serial killer in which case she only claims if she thinks it will help us determine today's lynch

I'm not a serial killer either.

Varsoon's power was very strong, but not Watcher and parity cop strong.
The rolecop was super gated.
The strongman makes sense with multiple protections, as does the Ninja with multiple tracks, but neither is an outright solution.
The gladiator was at best a suicide bomber for scum and at worst a bunch of full innos.
Presumably they also have a LOUD roleblocker who causes the target to be unable to claim for a day.
Comparitively, a ton of confirmable roles (Vecna, me, Chick, JJ, etc) who pretty much can't be the roleblocker.
A parity cop (heavily gated, but still).
A Watcher/Tracker/Voyeur JOAT Inventor.
A tracker-lite Fruit Vendor.
2 deathproof style roles.
A desperado.
A town roleblocker/delayer.
A babysitter.
A hider.
A Bodyguard.
A potential nightskipper.
A gated vig.
If only one of those is lying, I think scum was pretty heavily disadvantaged before we made mastina our cop. Hence, probably a 6 person scumteam.
Similarly, I don't think there's enough there to make a 7 person scumteam make sense.
