I'm considering claiming ARABELLA FIGG, a squib. Seems a decent town role that's also a tid too specific to be in the game. I'm not sure though. I'm also considering a light power role like sleep walker. A sleepwalker would be a bad idea if there was a tracker. Would take too many coincidences for a sleepwalker to always kill, you could get caught in the lie What do you mean? I can't kill. That's kinda the point, with a 1 use role the odds of a tracker catching me are pretty low.

Maybe a role that tricks our recruiter. A false positive type role. The reverse of Snape. Might be too convenient though.

Nah, that means you start the game off with a TON of info about the scum team- they have a seperated player they have a recruiter they have something to find roles before the recruiter No role would get so much info in one go. I think you're better off sticking to claiming ordinary right now

Shit, I think I just had a moment of genius.
"You are Draco Malfoy. You were raised to become a Death Eater from birth. Evil runs through your veins... or does it? As the final battle rages on outside you feel something pulling you back. The horrible things Voldemort plans to do terrifies you. Maybe you don't have the stomach for this after all... You just want to survive this and go home with your family.
You are aligned with Hogwarts, but there's more. During the night a strange figure shifts from room to room searching, for something or someone... Your heart may be changed but you still reek of Dark Magic. If they use this ability on you it will read positive, and you will be notified. "
I might claim this on Day 2 or 3. It could work so well, but I don't know.

I think you're better off sticking to claiming ordinary right now Not really. It all depends on the wording. You know they can recruit, and they have a recruiter, but that's about it. The "role before recruiter" is assumption. The Cult team in Cuthulu only had a recruter. This could be the same way from their perspective. You would be a balance to stop scum from getting Voldemort.

Just letting you guys know that the override ability is only going to be active after the first 12 hours of the day. I don´t want you jerks to break our game =P. I was planning on letting you guys be and have fun with it but some fine stranger raised some fine points and realized there is too many of you to let you do that. 12 hours should be still early enough for you guys to screw the town a day or two Aww Aww Dammit salva, you're no fun EDIT: This does tell us some important things though 1. The mods didn't balance for that adequately Whereas before I was assuming there would be many counters to that sort of strategy, now we know that there might only be some counters. Oh there is a countermeasure set to not abuse the power, but just adding this extra rule since it seems like an extremely easy exploit to make based on time and how it may make the game not fun for the rest of the players.

I wouldn't claim it without provocation, because if this was your "real" role you would just have made it useless for town since scum would now know you are a fake. Also, and this is just an idea, maybe we could add/adapt something about your father searching for you? I have read up on Lucius malfoy on the wiki, and while he is mostly voldermort aligned, he still puts the well being and safety of his son above his loyalty towards voldy. Can we use that somehow?

Did Blarg just really made a post where he underlines the name voldermort like 10 times? What do you guys think? Blarg being blarg, or a hint to us?

I'm investigating him tonight in any case We could also switch it, have Arkos target blarg and you take kalor. I have a stronger feeling about blarg being voldy then kalor right now.

No, let's not waste our switch. A switch should be used when we can be near sure one of us will be investigated The switch works by changing all actions that happen on one player to the other, and vice versa In fact, why even switch in your plan. In any case, if blarg isn't voldy, me investigating Blarg makes sense for a role cop to get out of the way. I can use it to help me when I claim

Also, any chance Rats is Voldy and needs to die before we find him? I guess there's no sense in guessing until he's dead, but it could be a possibility.

Voldy could also be someone really quiet. They don't have full power and can't speak much.

Actually, considering the override power, he can't be Voldy. Voldy can't die for that power to work.

Voldy can't die for that power to work. Why not? Voldy needs to be leading in votes at any point during the day, and then when i override, the person i target dies and the day ends. Voldy will live.

Oops, I almost forgot, I want to claim Moaning Myrtle if I ever get forced into a role claim, some kind of neutral role I would think. I don't know, hopefully I won't have to but it's a fun one if it came to that

Oh, Night Killed.

Idea for a possible role, if ever anyone ever wants to role-claim. You receive PM's from another unknown player (through the mods). That player can inform you of someone's alignment. Risky, since it might involve 2 roles...I'm just trying to think how to tie it into the lore. Just brainstorming. Feel free to ignore.

Okay, so who are we targeting? We have 1) investigator 2) Voldemort finder and 3) we kill somebody. Am I missing anything we have to decide? Can we NK somebody AND poison somebody else? Just trying to work up a to-do list for us.

Yes, we have a NK and a poison.
