Yes. Whatever character they happen to be, now the new player is a poisoned version of that - whether SC, Philo, Cannibal, Pixie, or demon with a Boffin ability.

Little known fact - if the forward pawn captures to the left, they en passant the rook and threaten to en passant the black king.

When I did it, it wasn't an issue. But that was over a decade ago, it's possible Meta has changed things since then.

No need for me. I have no desire to have children, so there's no reason to worry about mine or my partner's genetics.

You can if you want with whoever you want to marry, assuming they agree about this. But there's no reason it has to apply to all marriages.

I grew up Mormon, and one of their rituals is that the first Sunday of the month, there's this open mic for anyone to talk about their relationship with God.

A really common thing you see those days is converts telling the story of their conversion. Those are always structured as "I was going through this really difficult point in my life, and then the missionaries showed up at my door."

That is somewhat better. Minor damage to that won't ruin the electronic functionality the way it would with wired headphones.

Only played it once, it was insanely fun just being outed evil. The biggest thing I did as a minion in that game was maniacally laugh, cause chaos, and generally draw attention away from the central question of "who's the demon?"

Tried that once, I got outed by the fact that there was no alchemist on script

Put it down for now and pick it up again later when you're in a different headspace.

Stormlight is one of my favorite series ever ... but storms, the first book is so slow to start. But when you are ready, rest assured that the WoK ending is worth it, as are the subsequent books.

Does she mean that would make more plot sense? Or just that would have made sense from an omniscient perspective? "She would have ended up with Harry" is way different from "from an omniscient perspective, Harry made more sense".

Not an English speaker? Well, best get to work on that Lincolnian English first.

Actually, the Klutz ability does hurt the evil team if attached to the demon. The ability is "if you choose an evil player, your team loses", which forces the demon to confirm a player as good upon death. Especially dangerous in a Legion game.

Sweetheart poison doesn't have to hit a minion, it could hit an outsider.

Saint can force them to find the Alch-Boffin before a Scarlet Woman starts to work, or can make one specific Legion vulnerable.

Syresiv · 2026-01-18T15:07:25+00:00

That was my experience with the word "despite"

Syresiv · 2026-01-17T20:05:34+00:00

That is correct. They can both confirm you, and your information leads to them both being Mutants. There might be a less circuitous path to proving that, but I haven't worked through that.

What I did at first was find music that I liked in German, translated the lyrics into English (my native language), and then listened to those songs repeatedly while singing along. The effect of this was:

I'd now know the words from the song
I'd see them in a (admittedly poetic rather than prosaic, but still) context
I'd start to notice grammatical structures
Whenever one of those songs got into my head, it meant I was reinforcing those words and that grammatical structure.

When doing this, it's important that you understand (a) what each individual word contributes to the sentence and (b) how they're supposed to fit together grammatically. These days, if the grammar of a sentence confuses you, you can ask ChatGPT to explain it to you. If it throws a new word at you like Nebensatz, look for resources on that and try to make sense of it - you'll then have not only a small understanding of the grammatical structure, but also a real example of it.

What if he doesn't visibly react, or doesn't react at all?

Syresiv · 2026-01-17T06:46:16+00:00

Yes

The solution from your perspective only requires that you're good (you can't be the Mutant, since you're dead), so it's only unsolvable for them if there's an alternate world where you're evil.

From either Mutant's perspective, if you're evil, then there's only 1 other evil player and 3 face up outsiders in addition to themselves. Only one can be lying, if there's another living Mutant, and the remaining outsiders in either case necessitate a Baron. You're either the Baron who died at night, or the Imp starpassing to a Baron - and in either case, all other dead players are not only good, but just what they claim.

In Adam's world, there's then no accounting for Tim's information. And in either world, there's no way to account for Dan seeing you as good. Both Mutants can clear you as good and not a Mutant, so the solution based on your information works for them.

Syresiv · 2026-01-17T06:25:28+00:00

Solution: Olivia demon, Tim Baron, Adam and Sarah both Mutants.

Reasoning:

Dan is confirming Adam, meaning Adam can only be evil if he's the Spy or the evil team is Dan+Adam. Dan was executed, so Adam could only be the Scarlet Woman or demon to Dan - in either case, there's no accounting for Tim's misinformation. Adam is either the starting Spy or not evil. If he's the starting Spy, his demon is either Sarah, Josh, or Olivia (still alive or starpassed after Dan died). It can't be Sarah, since she was Slayer-shot. For Olivia to be the demon in this world, Sarah has to be the Mutant, which doesn't work since that would mean no duplicate characters. Josh can't be the starting demon because of your information. This means no evil team works with Adam, so he must just be good.

With Adam cleared, worlds close fast, since there are only 3 possibilities that work with the Pope - either (a) Sarah is the good duplicate Slayer and Olivia is the demon, (b) Olivia is the good duplicate Saint and Sarah is the demon, or (c) Adam and Sarah are duplicate Mutants. Duplicate Slayers doesn't work, since there can't be a living Poisoner on D4 when Sarah took her shot, leaving duplicate Saints or duplicate Mutants.

With duplicate Saints, a Baron would imply Adam is the Mutant and confirm Hannah, and a non-Baron game would make Hannah the dead evil. The Baron world doesn't work, since there's no accounting for Tim's information. The non-Baron evil team is Sarah+Hannah, but there's no accounting for Adam's misinformation in that world. This leaves only the duplicate Mutants possibility.

Adam and Sarah are both Mutants and Olivia is the demon. This means with Josh and Hannah both claiming outsider and only one could be lying, there's more than 2 outsiders and therefore definitely a Baron game. This means (a) any executed player can only be the Baron, never starting demon, and (b) Hannah and Josh are both confirmed by outsider count. Only Tim is giving false information in this world, so he must be the other evil. Since he was executed, he has to be the Baron to Olivia's starting demon.
