I'm not sure what to do with that information right now. Welcome to my world |

jackoclypse: Possible you could elaborate on that? Or would that reveal to much about your role? em716: You're not really missing out on much regarding the quality of these memes. As for lynching on day 1, we probably have a 4/14 or 5/15 chance to eliminate mafia or an evil-neutral role. Those odds are elevated when you consider reads formed based off of votes and discussion. And even if we do eliminate an innocent, it's incredibly useful to look back on and form stronger reads on people for day 2.

I could go into more detail about my role without much obvious cost to town but no part of it helps inform the current eliminate predicament I think

I think it'll probably be best kept to yourself for the mean time unless something else happens that makes it more relevant. Also, if we can't decide who to eliminate, I have an idea  |

I'd like to echo everyone else's welcome Em - I hope you enjoy this game and I look forward to seeing you at a live session next term  RE the serial killer existence claim: - Jack, can you confirm that your role implied the existence of the serial killer (rather than, say, a cop description that reads "serial killers appear as town") - It's certainly novel to have a role that interacts with a serial killer specifically - given both this information and my role it seems that the mechanics present in this game are very interesting. On the one hand this is excellent from a fun perspective (thanks Ben), but it does make aspects of the game slightly harder to predict, there may not be traditional cops/doctors and the like. |

Regards to setup, if there is a SK in this number of players then I would suspect there to be a town vigilante too. jackoclypse |

Also given there's an SK, might be likely that there's something like a bodyguard? Or just generally some form of town protective role. |

My role mentions a serial killer in the game (and the way it's phrased makes me 95% sure it isn't a dupe), having thought for a few days about the implications of telling you lot this I have decided the knowledge would only be beneficial to divulge Serial killer would almost certainly be solo. Still maintain that 12v3v1 ->10v3v1 would be unbalanced for role madness. Feel like there'll be one more third party(non killing). SK would make sense considering the last few games have been a bit slow when they haven't had a killing third party |

Another benefit of D1 lynching is that the flip gives us reads and allows us to make better night actions, particularly helpful for role madness |

I don't think we should eliminate anyone today. There's a high risk we kill a good person and not a bad person which is not worth it. Killing a good person isn't that bad, while if we manage to eliminate a bad person, that would be great, since there are probably only 3 or 4 of them. As for who to eliminate, I agree we should go for the least active people for now, until we have some reads. So I'd like to change my vote (can I do that?) and Vote:Taran. |

Hey em, welcome to the game!
I think as long as we have an afk member they should be a potential eliminate target. There's no real driving force like there was last game in the form of D1 item voting to draw people into the discussion, so unless they turn up or get replaced by the end of the day, I'd be happier to get some information out of them than none at all. Of course if someone does slip up then I'm also happy to go to town on them (Go Team Bandwagon!)
That said there is the discussion on team distribution. Even without jack's claim I think 3rd party is likely. Failing that, there's definitely going to be some weird mafia roles in play.

jackoclypse : Just to clarify, does your role specifically mention a serial killer or just a third-party killing role?

Mentions serial killer by name, sort of a technicality thing that interacts with one of my powers (note this is not an omission or suggestion I have only 1 or multiple powers)

Yeah, you can change your vote as much as you want ___ I'm presuming if we do have a serial killer, they wouldn't be killing every night, right? I'd suspect that could get out of hand, but I dunno. Maybe something like last game's SK? |

Sorry for double (now triple) post, accidentally hit backspace as the first was one posting and when I checked it didn't post. Bleh.

I don't like taking risks and don't think it's a good idea to kill someone today. If there are two kills in the night we will soon find out if there's a 3rd party so I'm not to fussed about figuring it out rn. My worry is that if we kill a good person today and two good people die during the night we'll be down by a lot of good people. But if people really want to do it then I'd join in to try make it more certain that a mafia dies.

@mod. If a user doesn't post enough memes will anything bad happen to them?

Assuming Jack is correct and there is indeed a serial killer this game, I'm fairly certain his kills will be conditional on something. Something that will likely give him a pool of people to choose from each night, if any at all based off of some kind of game mechanic. In fact, it wouldnt surprise me if it was posted/didnt post a meme. XD Otherwise, I'm thinking "someone who never received a vote the day before" or "someone who received X amount of votes".
In Town of Salem, SK is immune by attacks during the night and it wouldn't surprise me if he/she or maybe at least one of the mafia members is immune in this game (if we do indeed have a vigilante). WIth so much possible attacking power going into this night, its possible that one of the ways to figure out some scum might be through their survival of a targeted attack.
Furthermore, I think an SK would be a very buffed version of the standard one (one kill every night third party) and it wouldn't surprise me if the ability from jack that mentioned SK is to counter one of his abilities. If you think it helpful to stay quiet about what this could entail, please do so.

There are no hidden game mechanics that will apply positive or negative effects based on meme posting.
There may or may not be roles which interact with meme posting.

makes you think if that is likely to be a mafia or town or 3rd party ability
If so take note of who has posted memes and who has not

I'm struggling to decide whether or not it's optimal to post a meme now. I'd like to confirm I have no ability that interacts with memes.
