We could see if there's someone else out there to claim UB if we're that concerned.

This is actually not the worst idea. A one-shot governor isn't that valuable for town.

I think I like this idea too, as even with scum knowing who UB is (if he isn't scum) they can't know his target. And if he lies about his target we have a caught scum. The only downsize is decreasing the pool for the other PRs.

I wonder if that's a net neutral though, in that it gives investigative roles more to go on.

We're likely going to need to massclaim in the next day or two anyway.

Highly amusing.

What do you think of making the UB claim, Jamie?

I'm not entirely persuaded.

Try to persuade me. Why do you think it's a great idea? Talk me through it.

Personally, I liked the vote count better when it was 3-3-3, with bunny and seth having to come in after a day's silence.

If we mailed in our votes, would it take worcej and donny a month to count them?

I'm not entirely persuaded myself, but I can make the case.

• If scum have it, it makes it very awkward to use it, especially on a teammate, without betraying their scumminess.

• It allows us to effectively plan around it in voting (put the UB in second place, for example, and they'll likely tell us if they protected the leader).

• As a corollary to the above, it prevents people from using the Governor as an excuse to not vote for someone.

• It tells the investigative roles some useful information: why player X may have visited someone, whether they have a plausible excuse if they visited a dead person, when they can act, what sort of action they have. These should help our investigators build a clearer picture of the game without necessitating a mass claim.

• It seems like a decent role for scum to have taken.

• The role is more useful for scum (who can surprise save themselves at KILO) than it is for town.

The big con is that it helps scum build a clearer picture of the game too.

Hi Macca.

It does. I missed it.

If the gov power was already used, then UB should definitely claim, right? So we know we don't have to worry about it?

I think the same concerns apply regardless.
