It seems to me that there is some value in the box holder claiming and announcing where the box is going. If the box is in scum hands and that information stays hidden, it would be a significant benefit to the mafia.
I STRONGLY disagree with this idea...and I'm not sure if you proposing it is just you sincerely trying to start conversation or if you're scum trying to convince the town to give up our most valuable asset so early on!
My first thought says that Bozo is right, it is probably best that everyone announces when they get the box and who they are sending it to. Only gives us more info to work with

Jamie Xorxes and ND all throwing around votes and arguing with each other. This is typical of Jamie and ND, but Xorxes has been louder so far than in most games.
How am I being loud?

If anything, high participation for me correlates with being town, although as scum I can usually fake enough to survive first day lynch.

Xorxes is a bit more talkative.
What do you mean? I am usually more talkative, or I am being more talkative than usual?

This isn't last game. This is this game and pretty sure Jamie is scum. He crossed a meta scum tell for me, but it's early yet. It's like hour 1. anyone absolutely sure on anything isn't playing with clean motives, you know?

Not really. If the Driver targets the person with the Box, they affect people trying to *visit* that person, not who the Box gets passed to.

It's not so much about your level of posting, more about the tone. I think you are typically more thought out in your posts, but this game you are being a bit more hurried and getting into the fray with Jamie and ND. Usually this kind of posting would be a town tell, but it's not in your meta so it concerned me.

The box protects the recipient from Mafia kill though. If Mafia knows who is getting the box they know who not to target.

You initially declared me scum on the basis of a fictional assertion that I only mention the mechanics if I'm scum, which is rubbish and you know it. Your accusation didn't suggest any nuance, you wanted to appear certain of my guilt. Now you're saying you're "pretty sure", watering down your position already; that's back pedalling. Plausible deniability if you get me mislynched. "Oh, well, I said I wasn't certain, but he seemed so scummy, oh well". Getting that shit prepared real early this time, huh ND?

This seems more like town ND so far.

As scum he either thinks too much, or goes balls to the wall and doesn't think.

This seems like a typical amount of thinking from ND

Mmmm... not sure this is an accurate read of me. Not sure it's intentionally inaccurate either, so I'm not making any conclusions yet.

You think "Jamie mentioned the setup mechanics, that proves Jamie is scum" isn't balls to the wall shit?
