Ausuka, I wasn't discussing Datisi's game.

You can add back my post please.

Jesus fucking Christ I just noticed this.

I WAS DISCUSSING A FUTURE GAME OF MINE, NOT DATISI'S.

Normalize the best friend role

thoughts?

I have made a wiki page for the Best Friend role

I am unsure if Best Friend has been used in at least two games hence its role status is currently Untested (the Known role status is for roles that have been used in at least two games and/or are Normal in any capacity).

if we include the interations where it was made with the informed modifier that's 3 games

there must've been a theme with it but i'm sadly not enough of a site veteran to know

I'd rather not, as there is a small but not insignificant difference between Best Friends and players with the Informed role that know "You are informed that {player} is aligned with the

Town

, and are informed that {player} is

Informed

about you in the same way you are informed of {player}."

Best Friends would flip as Best Friends, confirming the nature of the information received but not the specific information. An Informed player would simply flip as Informed, giving no information to the information that was received.

Likewise, a difference in the flip applies to Companion as opposed to an Informed player who knows "You are informed that {player} is aligned with the

Town

." - Companions flip as Companions, confirming they know someone is aligned with the Town, while an Informed player flips as Informed.

What is Best Friend’s “neighbor” counterpart aka you know X player has a similar role but not the alignment and there’s no communication channel?

As in the role that is to Best Friend as Coworker is to Mason?

or simply a role that forms a group with no meaningful information and doesn't give PT access?

[Gamma Emerald]

The latter

The latter

I'm not sure the utility of such a role...

I don't think that concept has a name yet but I'd suggest the name

Groupie

.

I guess “no meaningful information” is not accurate to my idea
I’ll message you on discord about what I’m thinking if you’re willing

sure, if I couldn't discern what it was then it's even more likely to be an undiscovered role
