Also, I feel the need to reiterate that I need Amber to trust me.

*Keeps pinky held out in faith.*

I'm harmless. To you, Amber.

Given Ex Lights information, I am less inclined to make everyone promise something, especially since it seems unlikely alignment can't be lied about. Not sure this is greater benefit than risk (since I doubt it has much benefit).

That said, I also think it would be hard to make someone who is town break that particular promise without changing their alignment (don't think that power exists). So perhaps it's safe after all.

Welcome to the field, Dusky.

Care to make a promise with me?

Depends. What sort of promise?

A simple promise really.

I promise not to kill you.

You promise not to kill me.


Shall we?

*Holds out pinky.*

That is tempting. But I am somewhat limited with my promises, so have to think about it.
Does it include voting (if total vote count ends in a lynch) and not telling hypothetical team members to kill me?

I'd assume the promises are literal. At least that's how I would expect the mod to take them.

Participating in your lynch certainly seems like it would count as my vote would help, literally, contribute to your kill.

Participating in a hypothetical discussion about whether or not to kill you (and advocating as such) seems more of a stretch as, ultimately, I wouldn't be the one pulling the trigger.

But hey, weirder things have happened in mafia games.

Like that one time you left me to rot in my grave.

I am open to amending the proposed promises though to something more suitable, if that is what you are after.

I'll never hear the end of this, will I?

I am a bit suspicious of your proposal as I never really kill you anyway, so what's in it for you?

How about we promise not to make each other lose?

It is. Hey KoD, I could pinky promise to resurrect you if I had the ability and opportunity to do so. :p

In what form would the "not make each other lose" take?

Because we can still win while dead.

Also I'm fairly certain I've made numerous promises so far.

Assuming everything is literal.

Seems more to me that you've made multiple propositions that other players haven't accepted.

Except the one to Dusky. I wasn't careful with that. It's not like there is a guide for making these promises.

:V

The conversational flow would still lead to that being a propositional situation that she did not accept therefore there's no promise to be seen there.

(I interjected here because it was a good teachable moment on what the game will see as promises so players don't assume things should be happening that aren't)
