If the role Tricks would enable doesn't exist, he might just be vanilla and would have no way of knowing he was vanilla. Pretty much any role that depends on the existence of others roles that might not have been picked is probably a shitty role to pick.

Oh wow I just broke 3000 posts and now I have to look at these two assholes.

Only 99 posts until you have to stare at two different assholes! You can do it!

JJ @ 13/1/2015 21:24 Kru @ 13/1/2015 14:21 PORL @ 13/1/2015 21:12 Vic @ 13/1/2015 14:28 I don't even know most of these roles. The one I discarded I had never heard of before. Something to think about though: would the people that discarded a scum role (whether it be mafia or third party) only have the option to pick some other third party or mafia role? The reason I ask this is because it not, it could really mess up the balance if not. Like, if all of the people that discarded a mafia role picked a town role, would that mean we have very little scum to deal with? I'm not sure KC would do this because it might be predictable, but I don't see how the balance could be there if this were the case. It wouldn't affect the balance at all, because all the roles are listed anyway. It's not like learning what the roles do will make any difference to the game, they all seem to be typical mafia roles that you can look up in a wiki. There are a multitude of reasons why people would choose to discard a role. A powerful role is not always "fun" if it means more responsibility/pressure. I think to read anything concrete into that at this point on would be silly. Speaking of responsibility, I kind of find Trick's decision douchy to discard Enabler... Why? Having that role means if Tricks is killed, whatever role he was enabling is disabled. I think enabler is a town hampering role. And not existing means the person or people with the enabled roles become automatic vanilla(s). I would choose Enabler over anything if I wanted to be town.

How do you know that?

Chances are there aren't roles (ex: deputy) that depend on other roles (ex: cop) that depend on other roles. (ex: enabler) That would be pretty silly. Not having an enabler probably just means there is no enabler, not there are no enablers or roles the enabler would have enabled

Ah screw it, ##lynch ahoda

accidental ahoda train

I got the same vibe from Mooses early claim but I don't want to pile on

I will #unlynch ahoda though!

FOS at Paul and JJ. Something doesn't sit right with their posts. In addition, Moose claimed to have discarded a vanilla role because his other role was a little better. Then he claimed it was vanilla. Why even claim this early to begin with.

What is the something that does not sit right

Kiwi are you scum

o i guess so

Alien is a faction with only a single one shot factional kill for the whole game. In exchange for having only one kill ever, they have extremely powerful roles.
