Some win and just leave, sometimes game ends. Still, not many people really use that role and the more I think of it the more I doubt it's been used here.

But, think about this game and its theme.

The antagonist of Ghost in the Shell is a guy called the Puppet Master who can put a sentient mind into a fleshless body, and other crazy shit like that.

I do believe it's possible that this game could have a mechanic that empowers someone when they die. Especially if they die on their own terms.

Shit, for all we know he could be the Puppet Master and gain some power by having raven lynched, but I doubt it. He wouldn't stick his neck this far out right off the bat if he were the Big Bad.

Please give what you think is the rough probability of each possibility being true.

Why would I exclude the possibility that you are something other then Scum or Town?

Your inquiry looks to be an attempt to control the talk about your claim, box the talk into Scum vs Town possibilities only.

That is shady.

Agreed, especially since I could definitely see the theme supporting multiple factions.

[beyelzu]

you seem helpful jerome, makes me suspicious of you. like when you reincarnated in the last game.

Nightson,

how is this better for the town? this soft claim that you are sort of making?

[Deadlokd]

I thought there was just Divisions 9 and 6.

sorry, I know I am going to lose nerd cred, but could you flesh that out? how does the theme support multiple factions?

My answer was in post 67

My post was a separate question asked of you.

Do you think that what you are doing now is in the interests of town?

I don't know if I entirely accept this reasoning. I think it is unlikely though that you are scum, that doesn't make sense to me. I think we should pressure raven and see what she has to say.

Do you have actual possibilities in mind or are you dodging the question on principle.

I am roughly 80% sure the answer is or will be yes.

Section 9, Section 6, The Ministry could be its own faction, and the Puppet Master could even be a cult leader for all we know, there are a lot of different ways you could swing Ghost in the Shell.

'Twas an attempt to get the game going after ten hours with no posts. Instead of voting for those with one post I went for the one with the highest.

[ravenscape]

I'm town. I don't know what Nightson is on about, but I don't see how this ploy makes sense if he's scum, so I'm leaning indie of some sort.

Yes, that you are some sort of Independent. As a general rule Indys are not Town friendly.

What is your win condition?

[Jerome]

At this point I say the stratagem should be to have the Seer View Raven this Night and Lynch Nightson Day 2.

Why are you avoiding the questions being brought to you by throwing out nonsense? Just answer the questions that were set forth.

[Gonzo]

I am town and know Raven is scum
I am town and do not know Raven is scum
I am scum and know Raven is town
I am scum and know Raven is scum

To answers you question: I'll consider you anti-town as long as you refuse to answer questions. I don't think you have anything to back your claim but have said littl enough for another not to be able discern what your alignment is.

Are you referring to info you've gained that no one else has or information you have from the start that proves raven is scum?

I win with the town.

I generally consider scum to encompass independent anti-town factions. So feel free to add you own possibilities in the answer to the question.

[Gonzo]

Nightson you said that 'more people should vote for raven'. Would you rather we pressure her to see how she reacts or lynch her to see her cardflip and if you're telling the truth?

So you say, but nothing you've done is pro-town.

If you're a cop you've already shit the bed, and if you're linked to ravenscape somehow I'm not sure I like the prospect of following your lynch.

Soft claims in general are bad form but this just about takes the cake, dude.

[divagreen]

I think we should not rush and vote Nightson quite just yet...

If he is an experienced player, than there might be a reason as to why he is doing what he is doing.

[Gonzo]

I wonder if Contra picked up Day Actions from Rationalia.

Raven - in your opinion - what sort of roles could justify Nightson's accusations of you, if he were telling the truth?
