I have a WinCon, just no WinCon section. It just sorta hangs there after the ‘Powers’ section.
Confirm receipt of my role PM. I have a Townie power role.
Trying to catch up everything. Don’t you guys ever sleep?

Added on preview: peeker, I’m not sure if votes count yet. We’re still technically in Night 0, not Day 1.
<snipped>
quit junior modding. you nice person.
neta: can the mod please replace “nice person” with “bastard” in my previous post?
One_And_Only_Wanderers:
Confirmed.
My role pm meets special Ed’s handshake
I’ll add 6 Y’s to the pile
I’m only counting 5 Y’s, and I’ve gone over it a bunch of times to make sure.
How many Us and Cs, Wanderers?
Just do something simple like copy and past it into notebook and then do a find for ‘y’
I had 6 y’s as well.

I’m trying to decide what color this herring is. After I determine it’s color, I will be in a better place to tell you the size of it’s balls - of if it is just being a dick. **I have a bad feeling on the entire handshake thing.
I’m not sure what** Pleonast **is doing, but regardless of his actual role, I think his move above allows me to do the following.
Let’s see if I can’t shake here. FWIW. :
I have 11 O s in grand total of my last two lines of my Role PM. An even Dozen if you count the last three lines.
There are many o’s. I applaud your counting abiities
Telcontar:
It doesn’t help that I actually have 5As and 3Hs. Bloody fluency.
How many times does your PM mention “Sauron and his minions” ?
Once. Does yours say it more than once?
I have a WinCon, just no WinCon section. It just sorta hangs there after the ‘Powers’ section.
So you have Powers to?
i still haven’t seen any confirmation that other folks have “b” in their pm. lot’s of gd vowels though. or are we counting “y” as a consonant?
this is making me highly suspicious and i must act on it.
unvote all
vote story
neta: see that “y” at the end of his name. you betcha he could play either side of the aisle.
Lets avoid the win condition trap. I have a sentence in my PM containing the words “Sauron and his minions” (like Hoppy). That sentence has 4As 3Us and 2Hs. Note that I can’t count, or spell, so there is a slight margin for error.
All numbers are wrong as well.
Gadarene:
I get different counts for each of those letters, FWIW. So, at this point, I’m pretty baffled. (Or leaning towards the “Mahaloth is a sly fox who made slight variations to each role PM” theory, I guess.)
It doesn’t help that I actually have 5As and 3Hs. Bloody fluency.
That’s still not right. Guess again?
i still haven’t seen any confirmation that other folks have “b” in their pm.
None in mine, but it does say that I’m a gastard. Maybe Mahaloth’s ‘b’ key isn’t working?

I have a powers section.
peekercpa:
maybe you have already explained this. and if so i didn’t catch it. so you want to pull some sort of half ass handshake, right? but you don’t have a wincon.
seems inconsistent.
I have a WinCon, just no WinCon section. It just sorta hangs there after the ‘Powers’ section.
is it indented, though? which would seem to indicate it would be a separate section. or is it just run on with the rest of the information that you received?

More of a double return than an indentation, ya know
Pleonast:

I have a powers section.
Wow, I feel like we’re potentially giving out a ton of information here. Based on my recollection of past games, isn’t it reasonable to assume that Scum might have a Night Zero kill? If so, why – pray tell – are we talking about powers so much? Not to mention discussing our role PMs in such detail (however obliquely) – and I recognize that I’m one of the posters who’s been doing it, but I think we’re verging into counterproductive territory, so I’m gonna stop.
Bummer. Anything less than confirmation of no recruitment means we must consider recruitment a possibility. However, recruitment is no worse than the scum having a godfather (scum who investigates as town). Once we’ve eliminated all the scum in the unconfirmed pool, we’ll have to start lynching “confirmed” players.
For the record, Harry Potter Mafia from Mahaloth had a role who had to choose to join either town or scum.
Wow, this discussion took up a lot of words/posts. Once it’s taken off the meta level, I’m not sure if anyone is really disagreeing with each other. Antitown=proscum, proscum !=scum in all cases, but is probably a good proxy.
No, the message is that anti-town isn’t necessarily only done by scum and pro-town definitely isn’t only done by town (for example bussing).
Okay, at this point I’m inclined to think that the role PMs are distinct, or at least that there are several variations. We can either:
1.) Continue with a fairly fruitless discussion.
2.) Move on
3.) Make some attempt to make sense of the apparent differences.
I’m a bit torn about the merits of 3. In many ways it resembles 1, but it has the illusion of progress and poses some danger to power roles. On the other hand, I’m growing rather suspicious of players as a result of what’s happened already and this might clear it up.
@Ed: what is the “last section” of your PM? You’re playing a little too coy about this.
The spoiled thread must really be enjoying this

Unless the mod is being a gastard, there are no powers used during Night Zero.
I’ll announce when Night Zero(an intro Night with no kills or power usage) begins after the signups are complete and we’ll go from there.
