I get wanting to be creative since it gets boring using the same roles all the time but the RNG + extreme subjectivity of it is just no bueno for me. Thankfully it didn't really come into play

Yes, it was much easier to just claim vt than this..
 
I can host vexillology mafia if nobody else is ready, I know melkor is ahead of me though and should go next if he wants to
 
Nah, I keep forgetting to check that site and it's always too much to do when I do.
 
think i played kinda mid this game
honestly i dont think ratchet duel was the worst thing in existence, bad but not the worst ig...
feel like a few others were also scum reading him so it probs helped move things along

i do think gad not being lynched that day helped a lot in the endgame bc he would later clear sky

t-pein was someone i could find town pretty easily
lethal was vig
scchamp and sky were cleared
waki i arrived at being town eventually but i didnt realize that he was hammered so rippp ;-;

sad i town read tweet so much early game, really did not see that coming
good on lethal for shooting there

It really wasnt that subjective imo - you could check info freely given, but not something coerced, and it was down to the user to navigate that

I had autistically mapped out the scenarios for my usage here and I concluded that this ability could be used two ways:

1) Check the same person/statement multiple times and verify the actual feedback by having more statistical samples

2) Check a distribution of players, and when they flip, employ process of elimination.

I would say this biggest problem with this role (and I say problem from a design standpoint, lie detectors are broken so don't mind it being non functional) was the inclusion of the x1 random result, which threw a wrench into logically analyzing results with any method. Makes it very unlikely to come to any real check even by process of elimination and comparing results, because you never know if a check that was verified true or false was the random one or not at any point, except under very specific circumstances.

what r all the things fuji developed?
 

Yeah, and thats roughly the spirit it was intended in. I wanted it to be used to test your instincts and sort of put a number on them, rather than like clearing 4 players lol

Like you could expend all 5 shots on one player and definitively get whether it was true or false, as which ever answer appeared 3 times minimum mathematically has to be true - which isnt really that much worse than a bog standard 1x lie detect, only it takes 2 cycles to get the info
 
In case anyone was wondering I had a single check on Poyser Day 1 and it was that he was telling the truth.

Makes it more regrettable we didn't get that lynch because I would have been able to only have one unreliable check remaining out of 4. Worked out in the end though

I blame @hime
 
Blame me for it, not her. I was the one moving to RDK in the final 17 minutes of D1.
