i am currently deciding whether i should intentionally obfuscate my play style in the thread or if the anonymity will be enough
if this playerlist drew the players i'm expecting, they could probably figure out i'm scum if they catch on that i am me
but i'm excited for this game, we can do it, etc.
i'm toying with the idea of asking to be neighborized immediately upon entering the thread, as i would have town motivation to do that if i were town with my role. but i don't want to potentially spook a PT cop or to be put in a situation later on where it's obvious that i am the reason for the below:
"Ex-Infiltrator [Passive] - You utilize a simple trick or two learned from your scouting experience. The neighborhoods you are in are undetectable, and cannot be influenced by any means."
when massclaim comes around, i'm considering claiming exactly what i am outside of my first spell card and the fact that i make neighborhoods undetectable. the fact that i receive spell card info upon entering neighborhoods might seem a little too powerful for town tho
so i'm interested in what y'all think on the above and lmk if there'd be anything sketchy about my planned claim
- if i somehow find myself in the neighborhood with Kaguya Houraisan is in that might also make it impossible for me to claim the part about receiving roles of those in my neighborhoods. maybe i could frame it as an active ability or pretend the passive selects a spell card at random in the neighborhood to give to me every night or something. or we could make up a spell card for Kaguya altogether.
- Reisen Udongein Inaba may want to claim undetectable by investigatives off the bat, but i'll leave that up to them. or they could also always claim to be targeted by someone else with their Ominous Clouds "Heian Dark Clouds" spellcard ability
- maybe i'll just try to play like try-hard town and hope that i get neighborized instead of outright claiming that i want to be neighborized
i'm probably already overthinking, this is why i don't join role madness games usually haha
i asked the mod to elaborate on "The neighborhoods you are in are undetectable, and cannot be influenced by any means." from my passive ability and he responded with the following:
"No members can be added or removed, and any modification can be done.
Undetectable means if there is a PT cop they won’t be able to detect it."
Touhou experience levels I've noticed so far:
Daiyousei - High; understands Human/Youkai vs Youkai subcategory distinctions, knows lore of specific fairies
Kagerou - Low, probably only read a few wiki pages, doesn't know what a Youkai is
how do you both feel about poking at each other/light bussing? i kinda want to come for Reisen a bit for their one post but am ok just ignoring it if they don't want attention drawn to anything so early
also not looking to force anything in a way that would come off as inauthentic
I’m fine with being poked. It looks like you’re being poked at right now so I’m not really going to pile on but later on we can double back and make it more of a natural standoff.
i am pretty sure i confused Ichirin for someone else or something because i assigned them a townread early on and even my scum self can't remember why i did that lol

I'm a get hard bussed enjoyer if it comes down to it but it'll probably work less in the secret alt setting
ok good to know, i have teed myself up to focus on you both when i return and that may end up turning into a Kaguya scum read depending on what the game state looks like around that time. i won't push anything that doesn't seem natural.
not to speak too soon but i think we are in a decent spot this game phase so far, so great job! there's enough bad blood being tossed around among town players and we have a few mis-elim options that don't seem charismatic enough to turn it around to save themselves, which is ideal
i think it's all about keeping activity up as much as possible and trying to continue to wedge our way into the town blocs people try to keep creating, the challenge this game for me is that a lot of the town players just LOOK town so it's hard to make genuine pushes on most of them
Updates from the misty lake:
Dai didn't realise account and role names didn't need to match up and thought I was actually Kaguya
We're having good vibe positive energy there
i don’t know if this is against the spirit of anonymity but i think i know Aya’s main and if i’m right that will be a challenging mis-elim down the line (and today)
i poked at you a bit Reisen, it may have gotten a little more traction than i expected, lol
i think the question i gave you was a bit of a soft ball, i ultimately plan to change my mind back to like Koishi or Kagerou or something which will hopefully pause any potential momentum on you
Update from the misty lake:
Daiyousei is testing Koishi's immunity to day abilities but needs to check something before she does
Reisen you should probably be ready to explain your Ascetic is actually roleblocking people who visit you at night and that you shortened it to Ascetic cause you didn't realise the lack of day protection or something
When Dai gets around to visiting you eventually probably I mean
