b.ter, your thoughts too, please.

Which thoughts? I already noted amok seemed confused to me and why. I accept she got sucked into the flavour and couldn't decide what to do about it as a town player. I think she's town.

Your thoughts on other players .. ie any thoughts you want to add.

Doctors can protect themselves?

Usually, but docs also can't normally protect the same person 2 nights in a row. Also, watchers are a really rarely used role on sites I've played on.
Where in tarnation is the GM?

I saw the post from gonzo. It was a scum aligned traitor role. I didn't read the details except I remember the character name. I'm going to look it up.

Clearly role. The character fitted perfectly when I read the wiki.

Was the word "traitor" mentioned, specifically?

Keep in mind folks that lynching randomly just accelerates the game. So long as you still have investigative roles, giving them more nights to catch scum is a good thing. The no lynch was a smart move, you just don't see it yet

So you agree that a mass day one role claim isn't a good plan, after all?

I never said mass. Other people just assumed that. Getting a few of them though? Yeah. Though the existence of fake roles changes the math there a bit. Still a no lynch is better than a random lynch at this point, statistically speaking.

I definitely prefer a lynch, though this was an unusual circumstance because we hadn't a secondary reasonable bandwagon to shift to.

I don't see how even outing a few roles helps town until late in the game. Look at this situation: the doc had to out, now she is a prime scum target and scum doesn't even have to suss her out. She'll have to use her power to protect herself instead of someone else. It isn't good for town at all, and is a plus for scum.

Doctors can protect themselves? And watchers are a great way to catch scum who pick an obvious target. I think the night actions aren't as obvious as you make them out to be. Then again, not knowing Gonzo's style, I'm not aware of what powers generally appear in his games.

Depends on how the GM has configured the roles. Docs can't always protect themselves and sometimes there are other restrictions, like not the same person twice, etc. I did not say scum would likely go for charlou tonight, just that she's a known special, they don't have to look for her now, amirite.

What do you mean by 'watchers'? The equivalent role here may not work the way you have experienced it.

Yes. ie. Something like, "You are Eva, the TRAITOR. You win with scum..blah blah blah."

Okay, thanks.

Anyone noting any traitorlike behaviour among the day one posts?

welp the person playing devil's advocate has been andrew... but yeah, new guy etc etc

I think aza has played weirdly thus far. I'd like an eye kept on him.

I would say a traitor need only watch and wait if a scum member were in danger. (my experience)
I was very wary of having to use a saving vote and then giving myself up and the person I was saving (in zigmen's last game)
I concentrated on affirming wrong thoughts and steering gently away from correct ones.
This assumes that the traitor knows the identity of the scum team (as I did).

I havne't noted any of that. But I shall re-read tonight.

b.ter, your thoughts too, please.

Which thoughts? I already noted amok seemed confused to me and why. I accept she got sucked into the flavour and couldn't decide what to do about it as a town player. I think she's town.

Your thoughts on other players .. ie any thoughts you want to add.

Heh. Not very coherent, tbh. I think you, amok and irre are town. Also Athene, probably feck, probably shizzle. I'm not as sold on andrew the town newb as others seem to be, easy to hide in all that newbishness, but not convinced either way. I'm in my usual day 1 dunno mode.

Any thoughts on MZ, DP and Az?

Hey! We're on the same wavelength! I have you, amok, charlou as town, with probably feck and athene (less sure). Oh and dp as town, too.

In neutral on all three. Need moar posts. MZ seems towny from the get-go, but I've been fooled before.
