Actually, I'm a bit unclear on how our power roles work. When they say, 'you cannot do X and NK on the same night' does that mean our particular role or the Scum collectively? I think that just applies to us, considering the ninja's specifically says 'in place of the scum NK' but perhaps we ought to clarify. Mr. Gastard, does a player get to use their other power if someone else is carrying out the night kill?It means that each of us may either perform the Scum Nightkill or perform our Individual Action, but not both. So we get a collective Kill, which needs to be performed by one of us (for possible tracking purposes), and the rest of us are each free to perform our Individual Action. Or we could all perform our Individual Action and forego our Scum Kill altogether. Regarding Pleonast: He's worked himself into a corner with his playstyle. he always claims early, so now he must claim early or he'll get lynched for 'not playing according to his usual style'. And he can't very well claim Scum or Hostile Third Party. I voted for him because that's exactly what I would have done if I were Town. I don't know if he's telling the truth or not, and I don't care. I think that outed Third Party players need to be killed, period (unless there is iron-clad proof that they are in fact non-Hostile). As Scum, we can take care of that ourselves, so we don't necessarily need him to be lynched (though I'd prefer it simply because that means one of us won't be lynched); as Town the only known method available is the lynch.

What Suburban said. One of you has to perform the Nightkill if you choose to kill someone, and whoever does so can't perform their Night power at the same time.

Me thinks I shall use my blocking powers on Mahaloh tonight, unless we think that we should randomly let him choose someone to kill

I have a feeling that we should leave Maha well alone, he could have quite a lot of people visiting him. On the other hand, if a lot of people do visit him you could say that you were trying to convert him. Town must have a lot of powers too if we have so many.

I'd be willing to bet that Mahaloth can be recruited by either town or scum but the way he is playing I don't think town will recruit him and I don't think we should either.
I wonder about Kid V.

I actually think Mahaloth would have been a good recruitment target if he hadn't claimed. I wonder if he's actually trying to get the scum's attention, making him possibly a Deadeye Dick type role.
I was truthful about my participation being up and down due to other causes. I don't usually go into outside events but it probably is affecting my involvement. In short, I can't spend a whole lot of time on the game as I need to relax, and I especially have to avoid stress. So depending on how i'm feeling (and I am feeling better lately) I'll be in and out.
I would agree that if Maha lives, it'd be good to block him. It's a pro-town move to keep him from killing.

Let it go. And I agree if Maha lives today we should block him tonight.

I am not sure if I agree with blocking him, he could kill a Townie which would be great. I will have to have a re-read to see if he thinks any of us are scum, if he does then yes, we need to block him.

I think he says somewhere that his kill is unblockable anyway. I'll try to look it up later.

Did KidV soft claim Mason with his "Perry Como" remark?

I'm wondering about the Masons. KidV might well have picked the merc for mason protection (or because the masons have a private board). I also wonder if Cookies' response to me was masonry. Obviously she was implying their existence but that doesn't mean she has to be one. 'Watching Perry Como' is an odd statement, unless Perry Como had a show. Maha's kill can't be protected, but presumably he can be blocked. View the claim here.My argument for blocking him is that if we need to claim later, blocking the potential vig looks good. One threat to our power roles is possible Watchers or people who know we're visiting them, so if we can moves that are both pro-us and pro-town that's a good thing.

Rereading Maha's claim my argument for false claiming might not work. dizzy's visit, were he town, would trigger recruitment (unless Maha goes out with his towel), so it works only if he dies before revealing what happened. Which seems unlikely.
It might still be a good idea to block, even if it's not usable for claiming later.

Perry Como did have a show, but the context in which he used that seemed to fit more with "Perry Mason" the detective.
I see what you're saying about the blocking, I thought it was an unpreventable kill not an unprotectable kill.

Okay so how does this watcher thing work? If I visit Maha and block him, does he know who I am then? What kind of information does he get?

A watcher picks a target, ie Mahaloth, and then gets to see who visits the target in the night. So if there is a watcher that targetted Mahaloth and you block Mahaloth the watcher will see your visit but will not typically know what you did.
A tracker on the other hand follows their target. So if a tracker targets you the tracker will see you visit Mahaloth.
Typically Maha will not know anything except he has been blocked. He will not know who did the blocking unless he himself is a watcher and watches himself.
