I really don't think this is the case. I'll give you it can be a town role, but let's just talk about the role for a sec. Is she town trying to find a specific scum role? Why do we need that? We have a cop, a tracker, a medium, and EC's weird medium thing already, and we have a fifth investigation role on top of that.

So lets take it as a neutral role instead. Who is the fraudster then? A third neutral role in a 15 player game? A member of the scum team? That doesn't make sense. The claim doesn't add up

Is there any chance the fraudster is Blarg?

Hmm, in a vacuum it makes sense but with the amount of detail given and the pressure one usually goes full reveal.

You really think I'd take a gamble on the name "Barry" not being taken?

It doesn't mesh with either of his professed flavours (Arsonist/Bomber).

This is the most possible situation if I'm just fucking wrong. But I just don't really buy this either. It's a small game and we already have a neutral who's a god damn bomber. Two neutrals, and what I would assume would be 3 scum members in a game of this size is a third of the game.

Theres are just random names it's not even that likely a guess will be the same as another player.

I had to throw out a named mario character for a fake claim in a themed game with very few options.

This all assuming you did not get cover roles from the Mods.

How the hell do you know the scum did not get fake roleclaims?

Because you personally did not get one?

I don't think I'm even following that argument enough to argue with it, I was assuming no such thing.

I was being snide about my name being Barry, specifically. It's a pretty common name, yes? I was saying that if I were in the position to need to bullshit a name I wouldn't have gone for something quite so likely to be taken.

But I know it isn't taken because it's mine.

But if your scum you either

A) Legit have the name Barry

B) Got Barry as a safe Fake claim from Mods

C) Forced to throw a name immediately so you randomly picked one

If its C you already know we all have basic names that start with same letter as Job title so you had to say Some name that started with B

It was a weak gotcha and makes mo logical sense even just as a snide comment

*Bang Bang

In a dark stock room, a vague sillhouette ruthlessly crushed outgoing box after box in a well seasoned manner. As he punched down, he'd curse another co-worker and then smile when remembering how many they'd gotten fired over the week. He'd show them, he'd show them all. The broken boxes looked just like their rotten faces when being pushed out the door. Just perfect, another patsy today could take the blame for this...

*BOOM

Suddenly the door to the stockroom bursts open and general management burst in.

"MY GOD BARRY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO THESE POOR BOXES!? AND THE $24.99 VARIETY TOO, HOW COULD YOU!"

"PUT THE BOX DOWN BARRY AND NO ONE GETS HURT."

"What!? No, I-!"

"I didn't believe one of our senior employees was sabatoging us at first, but my eyes can see I was wrong.We've already called the authorities, there's nothing more to say. Get ready to be sued by the USPS."

"NO, I DID IT FOR YOU. IT WAS ALWAYS FOR YOU! TO CHANGE THIS WORLD, THIS OFFICE, I DID WHAT YOU COULDN'T AND WOULDN'TDOHOWDAREYOUTREATMELIKETHISYOU'REJUSTAFUCKINGBOXISHOULDBREAKYOUWITHAPUNCH-"

"Hey, someone clap his mouth shut. Wanting to make us a better office...do you think this is UPS?"

After clapping packaging tape over a rampaging Barry's mouth, security escorted him out the building to the police waiting, far away from the innocent boxes left in his wake.

Barry has been arrested!

Ephidel has died!

She was...
You have been working at this job for the longest out of anyone here and you are tired of it. You've seen the same garbage happening again and again and while your drinking buddy doesn't think it's all that bad, he just doesn't get it. So you are going to fix this.

You are Barry the Box Breaker and you are a Strongman, Godfather, and Messenger!

You are aligned with those wanting revenge on the U.S. Postal System (That is Mafia).

During the night you can select a target by using the command, Break Down Box: Player. You will Strong man kill the targeted player. The strongman shot can not be used the same night as the factional kill.

Also during the night, you can send a message by sending the command, Mail: Player with the message after it.

You are also a Godfather. If you are checked by an alignment power you will come up as town (because you've been grandfathered into the workplace… get it).

You also have the power to vote!

You also have the mafia factional kill! Just type Sabotage: Player.

You win the game when the mafia faction takes up 50% of the remaining players.

Your partners: Nice try
Scum thread: Invite only
Main game thread: You're in it

Good luck fixing a corrupt system out there

    Watching his best friend in the entire world arrested, his soul was crushed. How could a good and kind hearted man he had known for decades do all these horrible things to a job they both had loved? As he looked on, anyone could tell he was a changed man.

    "Don't you think he looks tired?" Whispers a voice, watching and waiting patiently.

    Sure enough Upper management who decided to do an employee review after the arrest, handed a saddened defeated man his retirement papers.

    "No hard feelings man... but you were really close with him and honestly you are close to retirement age anyways, so isn't a good time to sit back, relax, and enjoy the bliss of retirement?"

    Without saying much, he quietly accepted defeat... leaving his retirement party early.

    Boris has been forcefully retired!

    TheChuggernaut has died!

    You have been with this company a long time, and you love it. You are even one of the post office's longest serving employees (in this branch at least). The job is long and hard, but the annual company picnic (where you handle the grill) and getting drinks after work with Barry make it all worth it.

    You are Boris the Box Mender and you a 3 shot Doctor and Messenger.

    You are aligned with the U.S. Post Office in some boring little town (That is Town).

    During the night you can select a player with the command Fix the box!: Player. The player will be protected for the night from all killing powers. You cannot target yourself or select the same player on consecutive nights.

    Also during the night, you can send a message by sending the command, Mail: Player with the message after it.

    You also have the power to vote!

    You will when all threats to town are eliminated.

    The Game thread is here:
    If you have any questions please contact the gamerunners.

    Good luck planning for the next picnic!

    Ah well, I mailed Chuggs but should have expected that.

    I'll accept an HP or EC vote today.

    Well a vote on me would be a waste, since I have been honest from top to bottom, as usual, with who I am, my role, and what side I am on.
