So...what's the plan?

Iunno. To be entirely honest, after completely missing the ball on Solanis, getting nothing in the night, and watching the train spin around like well-herded cattle with a schitzophrenic shepherd, I haven't gone looking for patterns. There probably isn't a ton to gleam from day two, and that's at least partially my fault. hide.gif
Rika2009-07-04 03:02:39
By the way, has Shiri revealed anything about his own role other than that he is a ninja?
Xavius2009-07-04 03:08:42
Hey, I'll run with that.

Vote: Rika

Lurky rolefisher.
Noola2009-07-04 03:09:32
Unvote

Vote Rika
Rika2009-07-04 03:14:03
I'm just wary of Shiri just blending in by suggesting that he is a ninja and not getting any attention.
Shiri2009-07-04 03:14:52
Nope. Other than the obvious fact that I resisted Myrkr's daykill. I was going to hint something else but there's zero need to give the scum information since Solanis didn't say what I expected him to (and was lynched as a result sad.gif)

I am still really confused about Xiran (I have never heard of Spy vs Spy but that claim seems plausible?)

Random thought: Siam realises he screwed up with Solanis and then follows me without really offering much - innocent confused townie or newbie scum trying to hide?

Has Aerotan or Noola said anything of value? (If we're not going after Xiran or Shamarah, or Xavius, one of them might be more productive.)
Aerotan2009-07-04 03:33:45
I've been offering votecounts periodically, and I can counter or confirm if someone claims to be part of a certain group, as I imagine every group has at least one of.

You mean like, if someone claims to be scum, you can tell that they're scum, or if someone claims to be town, you can tell that they're town?
Siam2009-07-04 03:39:50
Yes, Shiri. I screwed up losewings.gif Anyhow, given how you were right about Solanis, I might as well follow your lead, albeit blindly.sad.gif

Oh, and is Xavius trying to push Rika into a roleclaim?

UNVOTE
Shiri2009-07-04 03:42:22
No, Rika seems to want me to roleclaim for no reason and Xavius is calling her on that.

Aerotan what?
Aerotan2009-07-04 03:53:18
No, like. Solanis can confirm, indirectly if someone is a Ninja. In the same way, I'm part of another town group and can similarly indirectly refute a bad claim on the scum's part if they decide to claim they're part of that group.
Aerotan2009-07-04 03:54:49
Like, if someone claims to be part of my group, If I've targeted them, I fan either support or refute that claim.
Aerotan2009-07-04 03:55:10
Can, rather.
Xavius2009-07-04 03:56:50
Ah, so, like, you're some character from some French romance novel, and if anyone claims a slutty French girl, you can confirm/refute that?
Aerotan2009-07-04 04:06:02
Something like that, yeah.
Xavius2009-07-04 04:09:59
This actually presents an interesting, potententially game breaking option now that we have Solanis back.

Before anyone gets carried away, do not do this without some discussion first, ok?

The roleclaims have been suspiciously stacked in one genre, and it makes me think that people are claiming in that genre to avoid standing out, probably because there's some sort of genre theme for the scum. I, on the other hand, am neither Japanese nor on TV.

There is potential for a mass name-only roleclaim. This doesn't carry a great risk of role reveal, and there's a chance that this could help us spot inconsistencies and let the people with their boosting or whatever powers go to work.

Shiri2009-07-04 04:13:16
Powers so far have been semi-correlated to roles - some have been (Bali, ...half of Sasuke's role), some haven't (Kakashi, Xiran from her claim...) We run a risk of outing the investigator, if we have one, by doing that. I can see where you're coming from though.
Furien2009-07-04 04:13:18
Role names are barely reflecting the actual roles..I'd be willing.
Siam2009-07-04 04:13:24
For those claim to be japanese anime characters, we can note inconsistencies in their abilities or claimed abilities.
Furien2009-07-04 04:14:43
Let's not go with abilities, for now. If anything we're basically giving the scum a book of names to look up on wikipedia and various fansites, now that I think about it.
