Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.
Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.
Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

hmm I was not super comfy outright claiming at first because of the risk of scum retaliating against me, but I think it's much safer now that we have 2 scum dead and only 1 town dead (i.e. realistically only 1/7 of remaining players are probably scum, maybe 2/7 in a high-scum initial setup). I... -

ah, good catch! my thought process with this in mind: if RNP is scum -> if qenya is also scum -> why would RNP start the game's very first wagon against a fellow wolf? implausible if qenya is town-> changed rand from v/w to v/w (pointless) if RNP is town -> then RNP doesn't know who's v and... -

I also think those vote tallies look extremely towny for mewt (iirc that was kind of an arbitrary wagon looking for an alternative to the existing one, right? and I don't think there's a world where wolf is likely to do that to a fellow wolf) and mildly towny for qenya (being first to follow... -

OK thank you for this, bc in the chaos of EOD I somehow got the misimpression that RNP had switched wagons specifically to defend stryke and move him from definite-yeet to a rand, and I was reading w!RNP in that situation and was very confused by y'all townreading him, but looking at this I see... -

OK I have Thoughts but I'm not sure how much is safe or prudent to share. I think I have to go for maximum openness short of roleclaiming, though before anything else, let me preface this with: I am not a cop, I am not an investigative role at all, all of my Thoughts are based on a combination... -

won't change things unless wisper or myuma come in, but I did say I'd change if a better wagon than qenya appears, and I do feel a little better about qenya than stryke (even if only, like, 52-48 versus 50-50). so, stryke (sorry) -

my moves also have "target used high-appeal" vs. "target used low-appeal" as one of their differentiators, so I'm inclined to believe this. same here, my moves are somewhat flavored like what you might expect them to be, but only if you kind of squint sideways at them (i.e. the effect was... -

to clarify, *mine meaning "my similar moves", of course (not "my roleblocks", I am not claiming roleblocks) -
Contest Pokémafia Spectacular! - Game Thread
no guarantee that this will be An Indicator, but in case it is: qenya, if you feel comfortable, would you be able to give any description as to how your roleblocks are differentiated from each other? I am curious whether it will be similar to mine, in which case I would be much more comfortable... -

this, yes, sorry -- as you are aware from other chats, Real Life Stuff has come up that has been impacting my ability to focus -- but trying my best I used a +5 Appeal non-Clever move, which is my second highest-appeal move (the first-highest, of course, being my high-appeal no-op) (btw what... -

mine does not have this wording; does anyone else's? not sure if this is an indicator (very well may not be) but I'm curious whether/how many more people will claim to have it and claim to not have it -

Mine are a mixed bag; I have the no-added-effect high-appeal move, one other pattern-breaking move, and then the other three all share a consistent theme. -

I also have a move for each type. -

re: all of this: I am inclined to gutread this as towny because I also have my highest-scoring move being 8 appeal raw with no other effect. but RNP, I guess this must mean you have some kind of move that gave you a big bonus (the Spectacular Talent, presumably) as a result of everyone else not... -

Ah, good point, until you said that my read had been "sande has a misconception of the rules > sande prob didn't read the rules as carefully as scum would > sande maybe town" but good point, my logic was faulty -

the signup thread says this: anyway, qenya's suggestion sounds good in a vacuum but I agree with RNP that, knowing MF's penchant for shenanigans, it is entirely possible anti-town roles could have killing and/or other powers that depend on guessing the target's contest type, so I am reticent...
