I think another LUTHA coming forward would help - or hinder of course-\*\* Kolandar \*\* but it appears 'e is not asking to be confirmed.

> [@Johnny\_Bravo](#): > > Well, what it means is that your role is different from sachertorte and crys. So help us out here - what’s up with being the pontiff? Sorry, I am even more distracted today than I am on other days. I’m an every other cycle redirector. This means, once per ‘cycle’, as the mods put it, I can take an action, and redirect it. So if I did this day 1, then I can’t on night 1, day 2, night 2, but can again once day 3 dawns. And so far nothing at all has come of this. I’ve been trying to use it to suss scum out, but nothing has happened, as far as I can tell. I get no feedback on what happens. I’ve tried to redirect those I was suspicious of, to see what I could find. Night 1 - Chronos. Known Mason, so nothing would have happened. Night 3 - EnderW. I’m a little confused here, so I need to look back at his post - was he already the IJ then? (On re-read - he picked the day power, so at night nothing would happen). Day 6 - TexCat. I can’t do anything again until the 8th dawn. I have no other abilities, and I do not know anyone else in LUTHA. ---

So you don’t have the ability to search for other LUTHA members? But you have a different power entirely? This is very concerning. ---

Although, that would totally explain why other LUTHA’s are hesitant to claim, since they’re (potentially) so very different from Sach and Crys. ---

Can you post the mod description of your power? I’m also not exactly clear on what a cycle redirector is. What action can you take and redirect? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk ---

In for a penny, in for a pound, right? 🙂 POWERS: You are the fly in the ointment, the crack in windowpane, the monkey in the wrench. Your powers sow chaos and confusion, the better to keep you safely hidden in plain sight. In any given cycle, you may use your power either by Day or by Night. Select a primary target, and a secondary target; any power used by the former will be automatically redirected onto the latter. This is an exhausting ability, involving possession and astral projection and a whole lot of Fireball whiskey, so you may never use it in two consecutive Cycles. ---

this may meet with disfavour- I don’t care- \*\* unvote all \*\* hear me out. I want the SK lynched. I think \* maybe \* \*\* cookies \*\* has a ‘bomb’ when lynched. Therefore I think Town powers need to NOT be voting \*\* cookies \*\* And I also think they need a pool to hide in. I am becoming part of that pool. ( Scum powers may do it as well and we can sort that out down the road.) as long as we maintain enough votes to lynch \*\* cookies \*\* we should be fine. - and… speaking of vote counts…\* [sub] yes, this is different from my ‘I had a dream’ idea.

I am awake now [/sub] This stinks to me. The idea of a SK bomb is totally bastard, especially in a game where we strictly are not required by our win con to kill one. And even if it’s turns out to be true, the only people who would really care are Town powers, scum of all types, and non-LUTHA(assuming their stated wincon is true, which I admit at this point is looking sketchy) third parties. But the way you worded it, you seem to be disavowing being a Town power role, so what does that leave? Not good things, that’s what. ---
