I am competing as a judge in a local debate tournament and there was no internet at home for some reason. Sorry guys.

Will catch up after the tourney ends. I'll read tomorrow and hopefully post the night after. My apologies.

Auction Detective x 2: Very potluck, but has the potential correctly, gives you a 1/__ chance of getting a guilty if you hit scum (just ask if a player won Cop, Deadline, or NK on N0).
Bodyguard x 2: Useful for town, useless for scum. Good for someone scummy to pick up.
Bulletproof x 2: Useful for town, useless for scum. Good for one of the trusted town bloc players to pick up.
Commuter x 1: Meh since it's one-shot, and is situationally useful for scum.
Coroner x 2: Useful in conjunction with Auction Detective. Otherwise, not that useful.
Doctor x 2: Useful for town, useless for scum.
Federal Reserve Chairman x 1: Meh. Since there are more townies than scum, that means more money is going in town's hands than scum's. But the advantage isn't as meaningful knowing that scum can coordinate more effectively.
Forensic Accountant x 2: Like coroner, useful in tandem with Auction Detective, but there are much better abilities.
Governor x 1: Situationally useful for town, dangerous in the hands of scum.
Love Potion x 1: Really dangerous if scum get it in LYLO.
Market Analyst x 3: Meh (only situationally useful)
Messenger x 2: Mediocre--can be used for gambits in the hands of town or scum.
Ninja x 4: No (duh).
Roleblocker x 3: No because it's a red power, so scum have a secret advantage in bidding for it.
Self-Watch x 1: Meh.
Tailor x 3: No no no.
Tracker x 2: Yes, because in this set-up, it's easy to catch someone useful.
Vote Nullifier x 1: Antitown (but that didn't stop someone from advertising Vote Freeze).
Wage Freeze x 1: It's free money in the hands of town, so better than nothing, but not as powerful as some of the others.
Watcher x 1: Yes (watchers are a broken role).

I feel like we should be advertising only one of Doctor / Abductor and that Doctor should clearly be the one getting top priority.
Auction Detective is a decent pick too just for the potential of guiltying someone with it (even if it is not very big). Maybe not a whole lot of money spent here?
Bodyguard / Bulletproof / Commuter (which functions as a BP in essence) are all must-haves and absolutely need to be advertised. I am curious as to what would happen if we force scum to BG the NK target as it says that the NK fails if one scum team targets another scum.
Wage Freeze could be incredibly useful and at the very least it's worth having up there. FRC is a maybe.
I don't think we should be putting anything towards potentially negative utility stuff like governor unless there's some plan I haven't fully thought about to take these things off the market for scum?

Why is this statement so generalized?

What, if any, was the point of this question?

Why is it that your recent questions don't really seem to be adding much?
