Because claiming that tarot card is clearly the right thing to do for a villager.

That assumes that a villager is holding it.

It's the right thing to do for a villager. It's a risky thing to do for a snitch.
A snitch with the card wants to get scried, so they want to keep quiet about it. Or they want to keep the possibility of claiming the fool card as a last minute escape. It cuts off options for the snitches if the fool card is known. That doesn't necessarily mean that they wouldn't do it, but it does mean that it is a very risky move.

I disagree.

1) It is the right thing to do for a snitch. Lets say snitch A holds the card so snitch B claims to hold it. If the seeer scries him he will believe he has scried a villager who holds the card meanwhile the real card-holder will get scried as villager and so you have 2 save snitches => easy win. That is if enough players fall for it. Which given that uberfish and Selrahc have both jumped on that makes me wonder about their alignement too.

2) I also believe it is the wrong thing to do as a villager: If the snitch have the pick-pocket they get into easy possession of the cards and we have again snitch in possession of the card. Since getting killed with this card means it gets removed from play it is my firm opinion that it would be better to eat the mislynch as villager and thus remove the card.

Given those 2 points I think it is the best move to lynch novice now.

1) then he can be pickpocketed and confirmed.
2) Yes but novice will know if he is pickpocketed meaning we can be on our guard. I don't think its ever a good idea to plan for mislynch, either.

Also I'm not entirely sure novice wasn't just koking.

[BRickAstley]

Yeah but which light blue?
Don't really care just remember tasunke had an issue last game.

If it's visible on the default RB background then it counts. This is good, . That's 5 across, 4 down, starting in the top left corner of the color select menu. [/color]

So I guess we are not roleplaying

You think this is a game, Big Tuna? And Machine Gun, I can assure you, when I'm joking you'll know it.

...Yeah, I'm not going to roleplay either.

Rowain, there's an item seer as well, how does that fit your meta considerations?

[Ryan]

Tasunke In all the games ive played with him. He always backstabed me..

[Selrahc]

Rowain, there's an item seer as well, how does that fit your meta considerations?

Yeah.
Or the pickpocket.
If Novice now doesn't have the Fool card, he has opened himself up to multiple different roles, which can probably more easily afford to go and scrutinize him than the Ouija Board.

Everything about this play screams risky if it is done by a wolf.

And conversely, a village novice with a fool card? That is a legitimate danger to be mis-scanned and lynched under false pretenses.

What is the biggest danger? Mechanically it is potentially the risk that the Fool card could fall into the hands of wolves. But in that case we would also gain the Lockpick for the village. A Pyrrhic victory for the wolves, who could otherwise be getting a vig-shot or other powerful item from their lockpick. On a more abstract level, the danger could be extending too much trust to Novice... but with multiple ways to verify his story and a lot of information brought by it, I think it would be a hell of a risky move by a wolf! Such trust games are very ephemeral in the face of in-game evidence.

[MJW (ya that one)]

Tasunke

I don't think we have a choice today. He got a quicktopic. Looking over the items list it is only plasible that a mafia player would have a quicktopic. So Tasunke must be a wolf. I cannot understand why everyone is not dogpilling him now.

I'll dump my mayor vote on Tasunke Tasunke so we will actually have something to talk about day 2.

[Tasunke]

Why isn't anyone else posting in the quicktopic? Am I alone?

Who hasn't checked their role PM?

Also, my PM tells me Ryan is innocent so ... go figure >.>

[Tasunke]

Waterbat has had a good run of playing wolf lately. Therefore I think it'd be a good policy early-vote for now.

Also, can someone keep these forums from adding a damned [/color] tag at the end of our post? Its annoying that the forum thinks everytime we use a color, that we will want to keep using that color for the entire post ...

I mean really ... how hard is it to have the closing tags appear with the opening tags ... or maybe just not appear altogether >.<

It wouldn't be so bad if I could edit it out pre-post ... but usually it tends to be added right when you click submit, and with no editing ... you get the picture. it sucks.[/color]
