I'm probably rather low on anyone's investigation list.
Can't wait for game start, though... Oo :-)

Now that I can type a bit easier. Let me write my pre-game post designed for scum (never gotten to use this before). Step 1: COMMUNICATE - This thread is one of our biggest advantages. If you have a master plan, run it by all of us. Four heads are better than one. If you are unsure of a course of action or just need advice, ask. Nothing can decimate a scum team faster than one person screwing the pooch on a poorly thought out plan and all of their teammates scrambling to help while off balance (see princesses) Step 2: Do not be afraid to vote for your teammates. You need to be in there playing mafia, looking for scum. If you come in here, you know us, you can talk to us. In that thread though, you are alone. You are a member of town looking for scum and you have to act like it. If one of us does something scummy, put us to task. If one of us makes the most sense to be voted out, do not be afraid to be on that bandwagon. Most games that scum win will end up with only one scum member remaining, it's impossible to say right now who that will be but you need to build your credibility early. Town will hit scum eventually and you need to be on that vote to look good. In mylo/lylo situations, someone will go through the entire game looking for that one clue. Do everything you can to look as town as possible. Play to find scum, not to protect yourself. Step 3: Put on the appearance that you are expendable. It's a fine line. Every mafia player, town, neutral, or scum has reason to survive. As town, you always want to avoid a mislynch so preventing a lynch of yourself is always good but scum tends to want to survive more because of the smaller numbers but remember that at the end of the day there is a pecking order. If you are planning to pretend to be an ordinary then you need to know that you have to be willing to die for a PR. It is what it is. Under no circumstances should you only be looking out for yourself unless you plan to do something insane like pretending you are the town doctor. And that's really it. At the end of the day, the biggest thing is you need to act as if you are town. Read the thread, find scumminess, call it out, and vote where you would vote if you are town. When you are posting in the main game thread, you have to forget that you know the answers. Nothing looks worse than a player who appears to know the answers. Quoting myself for game day start. We got this guys. |

People actually latching onto an obvious joke post are easy pickings for claiming that they are taking the easy route and only scum would take the easy route on a lynch  Is TL21 hinting at something here? This smells like a breadcrumb post: here |

Do keep in mind ordinary role is a "GCPD Officer" which would have police flavor to it as well. Even if people seem to be breadcrumbing cop things it could easily match the flavor for an ordinary role. |

I'm just always skeptical of posts that don't have a real point to them especially when they come from someone not known for role playing a bit. |

My thought was more that with the flavor of ordinary reading cop, a smart townie could breadcrumb cop vocabulary to bait a scum kill (prolonging the real cop's life). That said, he's definitely a strong candidate for me to hijack his power if no better options show up. |

I pray for the early doctor claim so that you can hijack it and continue to protect one of us each night |

Doctor or cop would be awesome. Cop since it would let us avoid the worry of a cop investigating you. Doctor so we could kill freely.

If we get the cop to claim, I would highly recommend having Clayface transform into an ordinary and you can just keep redirecting the check to there. We are on the lookout for a possible role name cop so screwing the cop over with forcing them to keep giving the same ordinary check each day would be gold. |

Actually, forcing them to investigate one of us could be a ballsy plan as well, could frame a town player and then possibly chain lynch into the lying cop the next day. I'll keep dreaming though, need to keep my head in the here and now |

Mazre is a good potential person to mess with with Ivy's power as well. Claiming ordinary in their opening post is either a ploy to protect themselves as a strong PR or bad play to screw with town (could be neutral too). Mazre knows better than that.

If anyone is trying to bread crumb ordinary, it would be Kark imo. The NO MORE DEAD COPS theme he has going on.

I was going to ask that next when he told me if they were in an order or not. If italics is supposed to denote someone who he thinks is town then that's really weird. |

As usual, Xam is extremely easy bait but remember that he's shown that community that the more ridiculous he acts, the more likely he is to be town. Trying to sink him too early will probably backfire.

Trying to sink him too early will probably backfire. What a coincidence that he starts posting seriously the very minute you post this. But yeah, agree. I wanna hear more from Mazre to put his claim into perspective, hopefully Xam's post for example will bring him out eventually, rather sooner than later, though. That TwoFace talk is such bs, haha - who cares? BTW IMPORTANT: Tomorrow, Saturday, I will be gone the entire day (~12pm GMT til ...; it's Friday ~12pm GMT right now, so about 24hrs) and Sunday I will have a strong hangover and will participate in family dinner, dunno when I'm home. Sunday evening I'm also out. I will notice this in the thread today or tomorrow, but more importantly this is to be considered in regards to my Power since I don't wanna just leave it be! |

Hmm, yeah you'll have to transform soon then. Hey Pop or Roy, is Bane only an x-shot or can he technically always perform a strong kill but with a cool down day inbetween?

I'm writing a reads list and I just realized something. I'm willing to bet 100 american dollars that Flux is a PR. He's much more brash and brazen when he is ordinary because he thinks he can be sacrificial in that role. He's been extremely reserved so far this game but it was obvious last night that he was watching the thread carefully because when people were asking small housekeeping questions, he was answering instantly.
