Anyway, was drafting this in my role PM earlier for the people who haven't played CYO before.

Strategic things I've learned from previous CYOs:

Each time I've played CYO, it's been encouraged (first year by someone else, second year by me) for everyone to claim what role they used for AFFILIATION pretty early on. I wasn't sure about it the first year, but last year, it caught multiple people in lies (well, multiple people in the same lie lol #googate22 #electricgoogaloo). I will keep track of claims and make a public list once EVERYONE has claimed - if you want to keep track on your own, feel free, but PLEASE DO NOT POST A LIST OR RUNNING LIST UNTIL EVERYONE HAS CLAIMED, as it will make it harder to catch someone in a lie.

THIS IS TALKING ABOUT YOUR CHOICE FOR AFFILIATION, NOT ABILITY. DO NOT CLAIM YOUR ABILITY ROLE.

I used miller for my affiliation.

Also, I don't find speculation based on discards to be super helpful - if someone hates being scum and they discarded a scum role, for example, you don't know that they discarded it in favor of choosing a town role; they may just have rolled 3 scum. I don't think there's NO information to be gained from looking at people's discards - after all, you can help rule out some roles in the game pending what was discarded, but use a lot of caution attributing anything about affiliation to a discard choice.
 
APOP pls. Why are you counting your posts like you're going to hit 10 and ghost like Casper?
So that squeeb can rub it in apop's face about failing to meet her self-imposed post restriction, probably.

I feel like I probably should have tagged everyone to make sure they see this, but also it's early enough in the thread that theoretically people should see it?
 
Oh oops I forgot to say that WE WILL CERTAINLY BE IN A MAGICALLY ALL GAME TOWN, THAT IS AN EXPECTED RESULT OF THIS EXERCISE
imagine that I took time to pre-draft that post and still left out this critical part, smdh
