If you're town, your role exists to help other townies puzzle out whose scum. That's what the game is about and a good mod makes the game with that in mind. They're not a replacement for the social aspect, they work with it. As a result, town needs to be able to enforce mass claims happening.

It you genuinely refuse to ever claim then you're incapable of playing to your wincon outside of vanilla games and should just play vanilla games.

So you're saying Bessie should stick to vanilla games?

bessie wrote: ↑Sat Oct 21, 2023 4:56 am I love the puzzle aspect of the game when there are lots of power roles. But I'm also against early claiming because I think it takes some of the fun out of the game.

I am against townies claiming to avoid the elim because I believe that if a townie is scummy enough to be voted off, then maybe the best thing that person can do to help town is to let themselves be eliminated so that town's efforts can be freed to hunt scum.

It wasn't, and I'm surprised you're blowing it off the way you are.

Yes interesting how Seven is answering for/defending Gluelock. Its like when he hijacked my question to somitomi.

That's what I was figuring; Seven even fake taking Gluelock seriously says they don't even take their own claim seriously. I'm not totally expecting BF level gambits, but to push it off as "jj" seems trite. At this point, counterclaims are one of the main tools we're judging alignment with.
