How are you feeling about Austin now?

The only real inactive I see is Lunatic. Earth and Wylted (maybe Pie?) are just low posters to me.

Mine talks about the album as a whole as well. It’s why I ended up pressing him for a bit more

I don't hate this idea from you. Tree Stump isn't particularly common, so it would likely be safe if a mafioso wanted to instaclaim.

Could you clarify what you're talking about here?

Any particular reason you chose not to mention this up front with your role claim? Might want to ask about any details that are unclear. It’s particularly strange to me that it would be undisclosed on the following day, since necessarily you could confirm your role by simply voting and having it not register in the vote count. Wouldn’t that, at least in part, verify your role?

Been through those stomach bugs too many times. These days I’m more intimately familiar with the organisms that cause it, so get some rest and plug the fluids, man.

Sorry to hear about your stomach bug.

Maybe it is an intestinal worm

-Cerulean might be borrowing a mechanic that I've seen on Mafiauniverse (and elsewhere) called "anticlaim."

-Anticlaim is a setup mechanic designed to discourage town claiming in order to balance the setup.

-How it works is that the scum team can submit a post containing a claim to the mod each night, and if correct, then they can apply a penalty to that player. This penalty can range from kinda bad to very bad.

TLDR: be cautious of claiming. I doubt Cerulean would make this mechanic extremely powerful considering that this is a fairly new concept in DART and is likely to piss off players if they get killed for what would be acceptable mechanical play (i.e. just claiming your role) in any other DART setup, but you never know.

Do you think scum would be softing/claiming their album do gain towncred, or do you think they’d would be looking to avoid claims like the plague?

Actually here’s another question: Could mafia be unknowingly TMIing about the setup with how they behave?

Oh I see what you mean… I think. Are you saying Austin’s could be probing for PRs to take care of?

I don’t see how that could be the case though. I recall him telling people not to claim.

Did we really need to know this part?

Unvote

Honestly I don't think scum were given fakeclaims. Everyone submitted their albums already- all scum needs to do is find a town role for the album they submitted.

Pie was lagging behind in activity in Paper Mario Mafia as well. He flew under the radar all game and won as mafia.

We'll see. I expect something from him somewhat soon.

I'm still scratching my head on why GP felt he needed to claim so bad. I know he does that a lot, but did he even read the OP?

He did tag Pie; idt he normally tags someone when he does that. Could be a "hey, I did what you asked, boss."

I know they're good friends and all but I don't get it.

Austin has a bit pf a point on Pie... but that's hard to say since we're all inactive.

I'd be down to press Pie for activity at least

VTL Pie

I like the mechanic as well. Makes it so people don't just treat claims like a get-out-of-jail free card, which is often the case in role madness setups (I think everyone has a role? It'd be weird to have people send in character submissions and not make a unique role for it).

actually nvm

VTL Pie

I remember him being a bit more eager to get things going as town, there was enough content at the time of his posts that I would've expected him to engage with GP's claim to some extent. Not a strong scumlean, but maybe something to get things going.

Hi, totally didn't forget about this :)

Some info which I think could be pretty useful: the OP mentions that there might be abilities that punish claiming. Cerulean is a Mafiauniverse player and setup designer and there's a pretty standard setup mechanic there called "anticlaim" which fits that description, which I'm familiar with due to playing on that website a lot.

Generally, the mafia team submits a post containing a claim, and depending on the setup and the degree of information (role info almost always counts for more than character or flavor info), the player who gets "anticlaimed" can be:

-rolecopped

-roleblocked (most common, usually for partial claims)

-killed (pretty common way to punish full claims)

-strongman killed (less common, usually in role madness games with lots of town protective roles)

So I would discourage claiming any info unless it's absolutely necessary. 

I picked an album from the doobie brothers.

I am town tree stump. Hi!

Yeah! I remember when Trump used a fake black accent to talk to black people....or was that Kamala doing that to be what ever she thought they wanted her to be?

Bro, didn't you just leave college?

What have you been up to?

VTL whiteflame for being likely town

Shoot whiteflame if you think he is town, I have a day role I can use, but I dont really wanna waste it this day phase. Might tho. 

His God is Yaldabaoth 

That tracks.

How did we go from death proof vigilante to god

Any particular reason you townread me?

He makes a compelling case. 

Wait if I am understanding the mechanics correctly shouldnt we be voting to lynch who we think is town? Why would we vote greyparrot if we didnt think he was town?

I literally do not believe that you are a Deathproof Vigilante, and I highly doubt that you are either of those things individually, and I literally see no reason to townread you. If you want me to, make your case to me. 

Casey seems most sane out of all of use.
