Happy birthday!
Can you make a short town case for yourself?
Same for Ekko
@Emil
sigh, this is mostly gonna be subjective and can be discredited as bussing or wifomed out lol. i'll instead split it into 2 parts - why cant i be mafia or serial/indie
for me not being mafia:
gameplay wise - i caught mango early for voting psychic cuz shes a woman. his response to me was anxious that i thought voting due to gender based reasons is scummy, but i thought it was townie and sused him for withdrawing the towniest thing i had attributed to his vote. there is much more nuance there ud have to read it.
i then left mango to let him cook and moved to yoho when he echo'ed flower's post about me and mango being t/s without giving thoughts on his own, which reminded me of the last game here when he was scum.
my defense of rednight is based on me having an outdated meta read on him. at that point there was no need for me as scum to defend him when he was not leading, not to mention that the counter wagon to him was scum. i.e if i was defending him for the sake of it, i'd be pushing a townie, and not mango/yoho lol
role wise - my role basically recycles non cooldown restricted abilities from dominants in the game. i can only use one per cycle but its still powerful JOAT role. it's just a bad design to give this role to scum when they already have roleblocker, busdriver, doctor, and town only has flower's role, fuji's role, and psychic's. my role essentially gives town everything they r missing. 9-4 is already a pretty stupid ratio. giving mafia such a strong role in this ratio doesnt make sense, specially that my role can potentially acquire flower's double voter power as 1-shot.
i'd argue that if we r dealing with 4 mafia, then my role + flower's role is town's way to have enough voting power to not lose after 2 mislynches lol
for me not being serial/indie:
as for serial, gameplay wise why cant i be serial - flower is alive lol. ok but forreal this is weird as my activity is NAI. id say as serial id 1. kill flower and gain her vote power, and 2. not make as much enemies with the mafia team (second point is weaker cuz id be uninformed and dont know rly if who i am pushing is town or mafia, but generally id not be solving the game as much as town). id probably not claim clive as serial too (maybe id have a fake claim seeing as the mafia seem to have ones even tho their characters r good in final fantasy)
role wise - my role publicly reveals my absorbs, denying me claim wiggle room as opposed to a simple vanilla role. also what does a serial need a doctor for, and a 2 vote power is strong for a serial in a 13 player game with 3 mafia.
tl;dr this is pointless as it can be wifomed/rolespecced in different angles, but hopefully u get something out of it
