That said, I'm not sure why he would've started with the [word] thing if it was
completely
fabricated.
I'm going to do some research on this. For now, I remain more convinced that Greasy Spot is scum, so my vote will remain there.
I'm glad Mith posted this. I thought i was going crazy. I'm disinclined to believe Hasdgfas's claim, primarily because the role he is claiming makes such little sense, and furthermore it is VERY hard to confirm the role, let alone affiliation!
I mean, he spent so much time breadcrumbing, and then for barely any reason atall, completely broke his restriction, without any fear of the consequences. No offence but such a role would be SO dumb. Mith's validation of the fact that JoaT doesnt feature in the deck from which roles were given out, seems to back up my thoughts.
HoS: Hasdgfas
Most of what you said I agree with, but one thing that sticks out that I disagree with is that he came out for barely any reason. He was breadcrumbing with his restriction to get his goal, he came out because of the pressure we were putting on him for our disbelief of him.
In regards to mith's statement about the cards, that's something to keep in mind, that his card doesn't exist in the actual deck. Like has said, neither does CotCR. However CotCR had a big theme at Thespival, as did Mostly Mute Mafia, and the Jester. None of those are cards, but I can believe that they'd all be in this game. There are a limited number of green cards though, and if Thesp kept with that restriction, then our 'special' roles will be limited, and for those who don't know how many there are, I'm not revealing
.
Anyways, his role does sound odd, and I agree that his alignment isn't confirmable. But we can't condemn a player for having a unique role and being unable to confirm his alignment. Essentially we can't confirm anybody's alignment, I've seen docs and cops as scum before. I admit when it comes to special roles like his, I lean towards the side of believing him to be town than scum, which isn't always the case, but I see most people referring to such a player in a suspicious light and attacking him to get said player lynched. I see it as punishing a player for having a special role because we're not used to it, and scum is more than happy to play along when it's not their own teammate involved because it gets a potentially powerful role lynched.
