[HurriKaty]

My magnificent sexy brain that is covered by glorious skin and shimmering golden hair wants to know if voting for people simply to force them into their posting stages is going to actually get us anywhere.

[Flameaxe]

Voting myself to stage 1 is very helpful, you can trust me on this one.

[Andycyca]

I doubt it, Katy

[KaleiÐoscøpe]

Flameaxe, how could post

restrictions

be of any use, aside of hugging cats?

[DrippingGoofball]

I vould really like to vote more und more on Kaleidoscope, but: I gannot vote twice, that is sad.

[Andycyca]

Yes, Flameaxe, I can't see how a restriction could be useful

[DrippingGoofball]

Maybe ze post reztrigtion is useful for Flameaxe, mmm? Flameaxe why don't you asg that ve help und vote for you, if it iz so useful?

[ZONEACE]

so, that looks kind of like a german accent

[Flameaxe]

Maybe ze post reztrigtion is useful for Flameaxe, mmm? Flameaxe why don't you asg that ve help und vote for you, if it iz so useful?

Only stage 1 is helpful.

[Shanba]

Is it allowed to claim our post restrictions? If so, it might be helpful. We could avoid useless speculation about what each player's restriction and maybe help filter out the fluff (such as PR induced anger, say) that could otherwise bias our reads on players. I don't see anything in the rules saying we can't. There's not even the downside of it revealing player's roles - Jdodge stated in signups that the setup was open 3:3:6 nightless.

[Flameaxe]

I was thinking the same thing actually, and didn't see it in the rules either.

[ZONEACE]

Well lets ask

Mod, can we claim our post restrictions?

[JDodge]

We have decided that you may claim your name, but may not claim exactly what your restriction is.

I would also like to confirm that both scum and town have PRs.

[UltimaAvalon]

NOW GET BACK TO EATING EACH OTHER! I'm sure yall are getting mighty hungry

[Yosarian2]

We have decided that you may claim your name, but may not claim exactly what your restriction is.

c...c...can we try to figure out what other p...people's post restrictions are, even we we c...can't claim our own?

[Flameaxe]

Talking to UA right now, we can talk about other's PRs, but can't say if that is the PR or not when it comes up. So essentially, everyone else can talk about your PR but yourself.

[UltimaAvalon]

Speculation is A-OK, but the player in question cannot confirm nor deny others' guesses

[Elmo]

Hm. I think that a simple yes/no as to whether your posts are intelligible 'enough' at the next tier would be good.

Nope.

Mine is fine at stage 1. Actually, I very much doubt that the restrictions would be made actually

unintelligible

when you're at lynch - 1, so

Yosarian2

until someone else makes the same claim.

Flameaxe: Why is it helpful to vote you to stage 1?

I've been posting as if I was in stage 1 for a while. Oops. I assume I'm now 'below' stage 1 because DGB unvoted me.

[Flameaxe]

I can't claim why...

Th...that's stupid. M...my role is m..my role. An...and I apparently can't even d...discuss it now, w...which makes you at...attacking me for telling the truth just e...evil.

S...since I al...already said it, and since I'm not ac...actually "claiming exactly what my restriction is", then, y...yes, if y...you put me at -1, m..my pos...posts will b...become utterly u..useless to t...the town. I c...can't imagine why I would l...lie about something l...like that anyway; w...what good would that do me, except to deny m...myself the a...ability to d...defend myself at -1? S...seriouly, what were y...you thinking?

Flameaxe: Why is it helpful to vote you to stage 1?

a...and why a..are you a..asking quest...questions he probably c...can't answer? A...are you trying to g...get random people modkilled here?

[DrippingGoofball]

Zhen we must zee vhat happens vhen Flameaxe goes to ztep 2, no? Zhat vould anszer ze question.

I like experiment very much.

vote: Flameaxe

- Yust to find out, no?

[Flameaxe]

And what exactly do you expect to see? I fail to see how this would help.

[DrippingGoofball]

It iz becauze, you haf no reztrigtion at ztep 0, then you vote yarself fur ztep 1, you ztill haf no restriction, no? Ya are very different from ze rezt of us, so, I what to know what your flavor is, since it iz ztrange that you haf no reztriction fur two zteps. Zhat iz vhy I am zo gurious. I vant to know vhat you are. To be glear... you maybe zscum.

[Elmo]

Aright. Obviously we can discuss it less than I thought we could. Fair enough!

If we can't actually say even how intelligible it becomes then yeah, that's unfair, because we'll never know if you're the only one. I just thought everyone could do what you did, although apparently not.

If you were scum, it makes people more hesitant to vote for you, and it means we can't put you at l-1 to pressure you, and if we do, you're 'excused' from responding to anything at that point. It might be beneficial for a scum, and I can't imagine the mod putting only one townie in that position, which seems excessively cruel. Either a) there's only you or b) there are more or c) there are none and you're lying. We could (I thought) have found out if b) was true easily, and I don't think a) is likely.

DGB: What exactly are you doing?
