i don't want anyone to respond to this, but i kind of doubt anyone actually has mana to spare. i personally don't need extra mana but i don't really have any to spare.

Urist makes a valid point that colors are related to what your power is, though.
Ok... but say you need a blue mana. If you can't make it with your lands, then it's probably not your main thing. The ability could require blue-white-black, or it could be blue-red-green. I didn't think that revealing the one colour you can't make gives much usable info.

It's wise to err on the side of caution, but that has to balance out with actually being able to ever use your ability.

i don't think D0 works at all. Make it D1, have real votes, play the game. D0 really only benefits people who can schmooze and shitpost comfortably. Honestly seems to benefit wolves more than town b/c it gives them a free day to ingratiate themselves with literally 0 pressure.

if you actually need someone to give specific mana to you, i don't think there's much harm in claiming it because otherwise you won't be able to use your ability anyway, it won't matter whether scum knows what it is lol.
i was more getting at the idea that people shouldn't be claiming colours for no reason.

No, my point is that D0 is functionally identical to D1 only without voting, therefore D0 is pointless and the game should just start :)

falcon's entrance to the game seemed town. asking for a town core, calling people scum for ignoring his town core post seemed like he wasn't afraid to step on peoples' toes.
esooa's early claim was townish, plus a part of me wants to speculate that the mafia have only low-cost abilities (don't they have to spend enough mana on their factionals?).

i'm fully acknowledging that these reads are weaker than a 0/0 artifact creature and are not unlikely to change.
