He addressed this in the quicktopic - he wanted to specifically distance himself from me, as he suspected the mafia would have a rolecop and so didn't want any overt connections. He felt a mason roleclaim en masse would be likely to be successful. Batstegs can go back and read post number five in the quicktopic to confirm.

Oddly enough, I have not used my power, as I only have 1-shot of it.

I've also noticed this game, everyone has a power. So, I really want to hear more about Laarz claim as Alfred, what kind of power does he get?

Anything specific, or are you talking just to talk? Nice of you to show up and start playing the game, though.
Hmmm. I'm not sure what to think of that. I don't agree that there is any good reason for a Mason member to try to distance himself from another Mason member. Distancing is what scum teams do.

You claimed Nightwing. Now that does sound like a pretty Town role to me. I was more curious if you have any insight to Kegs batman claim. I know Nightwing became Batman for a short period, so I thought his role might have a connection to Batman in this game
I think it's valid. Generally speaking, mafia members prefer to target masons as they tend to be power roles. Distancing himself from me could help us appear vanilla townies.

That's a fair question. Right now I'm on the fence. I want to believe kestegs, as the way he's acted is how I expect a townie kestegs to act when forced to come forward.
What bothers me is the 4 man Mason team that includes at least one strong power role. That's absurdly powerful. I ran a 3 man team with tracker in the Wheel of Time game, and just about everyone agreed that it was an almost insurmountable obstacle for the mafia team to overcome. Take that, add one more member and upgrade Tracker to Watcher + other stuff, and what do you have?
I'm hesitant to claim imbalance before knowing what the full setup is, but just think about that for a moment.
To answer you specifically: I have no connections to Batman, nor anyone else in the game. I am my own man.
There were 19 other players in the game that he could also much more convincingly form connections to if he wanted to throw the scum off his trail. Why didn't he also try to distance himself from kestegs or Valhauros?

Name doesn't follow the format that everyone else's seems to, although maybe cg's didn't either.
Yes. I'm at work and already spending more time on this than I should so everything I've said today has been from memory.
We didn't get to talk before twilight, so we didn't discus anything. I thought about distancing but in the end didn't think it was necessary, I just tried not to connect too much with my team. Which wasn't real hard since the only person on my team who isn't a lurker died on n1.

I was also given a name, Helena Bertonelli. I feel like most were given an actual name and their counterpart. Male was given two names, same with flub.

Unvote: Moar
Vote: Coju
Because he claimed to be Bane and have killed
I made up a list at the beginning of the game of characters I expected to see. I know the game's theme isn't a lock on who's going to be in the game and who isn't, but it was still fun to guess who'd be around. Here's what I came up with in decreasing likelihood of being in the game:
Batman
Robin (there are a lot of characters who are/were Robin)
Joker
Commissioner Gordon
Alfred
Catwoman
Batgirl (or Oracle)
Two Face (or Harvey Dent)
Ra's al Ghul (with or without his daughter, Talia)
Bane
Penguin
Scarecrow
Mr. Freeze
Nightwing
The Riddler
Poison Ivy
Harely Quinn
Clayface
The Roman (or some other organized crime boss, there's a mess of them to pick from)
Hush
Killer Croc
Manbat
Cops (there's several like Harvey Bullock and Renee Montoya)
We've already seen several (including my own) that I had not expected to see.
Vote: Coju

Clayface can mimic anyone in a similar way to the T-1000 in Terminator 2.
Poison is more of a Poison Ivy thing.
So, I'm not the only one who googled of "batman+fruit" and got that.
My power was to pick any two people and have everything that happened to person one redirect to person two (so it's not exactly like a bus ride where two people switch places). I picked myself as one and flubb as two. I did this because I had been voted or questioned a bunch the previous day and felt the need to use up my ability in case of NK or some other shenanigans.

Yes, your claim is complete and utter bull****.
Why would I answer a question from scum?
Poor SI. Surrounded by people who know Batstegs is telling the truth. Would you like a yummy slice of watermelon? Make you feel better.
Ohai there scum #2. Batstegs is Batstegs as claimed. How many more people do you need to confirm that? I know - it's none, because you know it already, and are just being a scummy scum trying to cast doubt on your nemesis.
Nice attempt to bus your buddy coju. Won't work. We're on to both of you.
Oh looky looky - a Village Idiot claim to get out of a lynch. Nice try, scum.
Now the question is, which scum do we off first - Solar or coju? I'm easy either way. If only that idiot Joanna had used her bullet on one of them instead of franky.

Jason, did you know Kegs was part of a mason group with four others?
Jason Maher

No, I did not. I knew he was Batman, because my ability specifically allowed me to chat with Batman.

He told me about his Watcher ability, but nothing else. He said he had other abilities, but wanted to keep those to hismelf. Understandable, because he couldn't be 100% sure of me like I could of him.
New thought that many of you have probably thought already: Solar ice is poison ivy. Hoping for an extra night with 2 night kills by Coju exposing himself etc.
OMG can you actually shoot one of them and mean it? And not someone who isn't a confirmed scum since we have two? Please?
