    My power came from a scum card.

    Sorry chaps, I'm just super busy at the moment. I should and probably would have sat this one out but I was curious what the greatest was about..

    Was out Thursday night, work Friday, volunteering Friday evening, work Saturday, volunteering this afternoon, work tomorrow and then probably out tomorrow night too. Just haven't had time to sit down properly and look at this game as yet.

    Anyway, took my alignment from the informant role.

    First round I had all town roles (Doctor, FBI Agent and Mason). Discarded mason and chose Doctor.

    You're right. I do enjoy playing as scum so find your logic for scum reading me for it odd. I'm quite an aggressive mafia player at times and enjoy manipulating situations in my favour.

    My lack of activity is a bit out of character I'd say. I don't usually shy away from getting involved if I'm scum.

    Lack of activity here is non-aligmment-indicative so you pulling up on it feels a bit weak.

    Anyway, I've got a bit of time this morning to catch up so going to have a quick read.

    How likely are town (or any alignment I guess) to have similar roles in a game like this?

    Town jailkeeper and a town roleblocker?

    Yeah VT, because that’s what it was. Doesn’t make a difference if I was one of the last to post, I wasn’t around :laugh: You’re reaching if that’s your idea of being scum.

    @Guyett - do you have a link for the 146 greatest idea cards available? I couldn’t see informant on an old list I had.

    Looking at the discards/alignment cards early D1 is something we look at instead of RVS.
    They aren’t a full-on guilty on a player, but sometimes they are indicative of their alignment/ exposing mistakes/ lies/reluctance to reveal.

    I can assure you there was no reluctance on my part, only not being online.

    Yes.

    Depends how randomised the draw is.
    There are 146 cards and Guyett would have used 42 of them….and from those cards there are literally hundreds of possible combinations.

    Definitely not a game to look at similar powers being remotely relevant

    This is the standard one, would be good if Guy could confirm if that's in use.

    Feel a bit for Jason as it's his first Greatest game but between seemingly choosing a card that isn't in the deck (long after everyone else, personal circumstances taken into account though) and trying to cast suspicion on me/Josh for having a similar alignment card as Josh's discard (both of which ARE in the deck) he is top of my scum read list.

    Just confirming- you discarded Conspiracy Theorist but used Mason as your alignment?

    Yes. Could have done it either way to be fair.

    I was torn between being a mason or my current role. But last time i chose mason in a greatest mafia game there were no other masons....but at least the mod gave me day chat in that game....didn't they @Burg :laugh:
