Perhaps a Distrustfall could also be in order.

Any reason why you opened your crusade for character names this way?TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Tue Apr 07, 2020 5:28 pm Okay can I have character claims from everyone?
No reason why. Story curiosities. They’re completely randomized.
I’m Lucy.
Figured I’d get some early bites and could get more truthful information, then could use peer pressure and full info to find the rest.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 1:53 amAny reason why you opened your crusade for character names this way?TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Tue Apr 07, 2020 5:28 pm Okay can I have character claims from everyone?

Obviously there's a difference between "no reason"/"story curiosities"/"they're randomized" and "my role allows me to cop check certain people".
It can set up mechanical dichotomies. If I die and am cleared it can make someone else seem pretty suspicious.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 1:51 am @TonyStarkPrime I've considered advocating for your character names cause here, but it's problematic that you're on a shortlist for the bad guys. I'm also not sure how much one can do with a cop check in a LyLo scenario. There's always the threat of deceit.
Not one with a name, and not one you should be targeting with a night action. We're gone anyway.TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 2:15 amIt can set up mechanical dichotomies.

Do you have a character?
I think they are.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 2:21 am @TonyStarkPrime you suggested you were inclined to stick to the status quo in light of Epignosis trying to generate paranoia. I think that's an agreeable sentiment, and yet I note your reads are not the status quo. Who's your three-player mafia team with a gun to the old noggin?
The numbers we provided are the numbers to our knowledge. But it's interesting that you want to put this idea forth.ts account wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 2:40 am Maybe Jay and nutella decided to prank us by saying we are in lylo, when there really are only three wolves, for some reason. That would not be too unusual, I think.
That's what I'm referring to. You're the only one on that course at all.TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 2:39 am I still think it’s FG but as I did my distrustfall I found that some suspension of belief was required

Am I crazy on this? It seems to me like a fairly simple bus strat and I haven’t seen FG’s tone as genuine in the manner that some of you have. Likely I’m wrong.TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 7:28 amI made it up in my head it’s just meJaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 3:08 amwho elseTonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 2:57 am So I wouldn’t say I’m the only one on that course at all.

Epi
Speed

Seems like status quo.
I could see funnygurl as having set up the whole role thing with Epi, at least.Sloonei wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 12:19 amIt is difficult to fit him in there, not because of anything he has done, but because that means two of these other folks must be bad. Unless funnygurl and mikey have been doing some crazy hoodwinking all along, I don’f see it.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 12:17 am We know Epignosis is a mafioso.
Does anyone still have room left in their solving spaces for a civilian speechuck?
This might be worth doing, quite frankly. If it's LYLO, I need to be cleared before tomorrow's lynch.TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 1:32 am Thinking through a trustfall leaves me worse on everyone, but in a different order.
(epi) speed TS FG LC Sloonei
As for the roles thing, I have a power that has the ability to essentially act as a cop for any player. It only works on certain roles — I need to find one of those roles to use it. It also only works on odd nights, and since this is the last odd night in the game (most likely) I will have no more opportunities to make use of it. So that’s why I’m asking now. I just need character names.
To clarify:TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 10:38 am Okay, just Sloonei TS and LC. Sloonei and TS feel compelled likely to not share as their position is that where they're not particularly in danger -- I won't use my action on them. But I'll remind them that scum fake claims. If I find that I know that there is a role in the game that they have not claimed, it can narrow down options.
It's a foreign idea to me, I'm waiting to see unanimous approval of the plan. Once I do it, it can't be undone. I'm not making that decision based on just me and Tony.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Wed Apr 08, 2020 11:59 pm Can anyone tell me why they aren't inclined to answer Tony's call for a character claim?
My character has not been claimed by anyone.TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Apr 09, 2020 10:53 am

Let’s say Speed is bad and is Bob but has lied and I can get information on Bob.
If Sloonei and TS tell me that they are not Bob, then I can (with some luck) some better information if I target Speed. If Sloonei and TS don’t tell me anything, I have to get a lot more lucky.
Not much
Have you accomplished anything with your role so far?

I have one remaining valid suspect. No one has yet claimed that valid suspect.

If the mafia are being squeezed out by POE, they need to expand that pool to stay viable. Maintaining FunnyGurl as a high suspect may fit that idea.

Given that this is WIFOM, but I don’t think I’d be so high to defend LC.
