Given the wording of Zinger's clarification, I don't think it'd go down like that Nik. By the wording, it sounds like the win con is just broadened without an actual alignment flip, making the player able to win with both sides. Zinger saying it has no effect on him probably means he already can win with both sides. In a situation like that, there's no incentive for scum to sell out their mates, and it's not likely town would be given a scum list to just disseminate to everybody else.

This ability is highly dangerous, me thinks, in creating entities that might decide to turn against town in LyLo because they can just win with scum. Essentially it creates the swing vote that people fear in self aligned players in other games. Until we have more information (about the game as a whole), I'd say just don't use it.

Voting random lynch is awful because its an easy way to get people to die without bearing any responsibility.

Now I wish I had picked the vig role so I could kill y'all.

You sound like a support player Silly.

Also, I agree with Numbers's assessment about Zinger's role. Scum are not more likely to request Zinger's ability than any other player in the game. And once a player does have their win conditioned broadened, then, like Numbers has stated, that person has the option to change who they are helping if it will benefit them. As for Zinger himself, I could see him as self aligned.

Since I'm against random lynching,

Vote: Niklor

because you started it.

Niklor janai. Katsura da.

"-This setup has 9 Comedy Aligned players and 3 Greed Aligned players."

I'm guessing it's rather unlikely that Zinger is self aligned.

I'm guessing that is in the rules?

I should probably go read that. What Numbers's suggested then is much more likely than my debunked self aligned thought.

Post restriction for role effect. Not sure to do today.

Are you able to elaborate at all on how your posting restriction restricts you?

If I had to guess I'd say he's either limited on characters or restricted on referring to himself explicitly.

More structuredly, I'm with Silly and KoD in the anti random camp. If nothing terribly exciting happens today I'll probably join the counterwagon KoD has started. Although I would much rather prefer that something exciting happen today so neither a random lynch nor a counter random lynch is a viable option. Right now I'm super bored though. :|

::Flash Edit: Ooh, close with the character restriction guess::

So, you have control over your posting restriction? Choosing to use the posting restriction nets you some benefit in the form of an ability? Opting out of it removes said ability, but lets you post freely?

It's okay every time you post I'll post so you can double post without double posting.

Correct. Not sure to use today. Start just in case.

Is your posting restriction just in the form of how many words you can type? Or are there content restrictions also? Are you able to tell us about your ability that comes with the restriction? (note, I am not asking you to tell us what your ability is, I am asking if you are ABLE to tell us what your ability is)

Well that's nifty. Not sure why you'd leak that bit of info since, in the past, it has proven beneficial to you to not share too much.

@Zinger: I'd venture a guess that he could tell us if he wanted to. After all, he's informing us about his restriction.

Would always start like this. Questions would pop up anyway.
