Wildcard seems like lots of fun. Then again, none of the discard are great. I'm gonna go to sleep now, will be here in the morning. I think wildcard is fun, too. But it's a gamble because you don't know what you'd get. In this particular game, it looks like nothing much.

I was gonna say, I know you wake up early but 3am is ridiculous! Sorry you couldn't sleep.

As we wildcard, you see your options and if you regret your decision you just pick back up your own discard. You just lose one night of action. Unless it's a passive ability I guess.

I forgot I said I was going to sleep. I should also that.
Night night.

Players:
1. Sophia 2. Luna 3. Zinnia 4. Bella 5. Skelda 6. Lala 7. City 8. Frenchy 9. Keyen 10. Emzy 11. Rosey 12. Choco
Discards:
1. Sophia - Mafia Reflexive Doctor 2. Luna - Wild Card 3. Zinnia - Town Nurse 4. Bella - Ascetic Townie 5. Skelda - VT 6. Lala - Werewolf 7. City - Werewolf 8. Frenchy - Town Hider 9. Keyen - VT 10. Emzy - Alpha Goon 11. Rosey - Evangelistic Townie 12. Choco - Town Tourist
Not impressive. I can understand Zinnia's discard of nurse. I also don't know if Zinnia would pick mafia/alien/werewolf. I think she'd be tempted by serial killer or goo. If goo is in this setup? I think it is?

Only 4 scum discards...does that seem lowish to anyone else?

Decided to look at the front page and jug some notes down for myself. There are discarded roles I've never even heard of before so please bear with me. Here's some brief note of what I think of each of those, mostly because I find it necessarily for me to familiarise myself with some of those weird ones, in particular. Just so I wouldn't get confused as the game progresses: Discards:1. Sophia - Mafia Reflexive Doctor (Pretty useless role for mafia, does more good to anyone that isn't mafia than it does to them.)2. Luna - Wild Card (So they get to pick a completely new role which they must keep? I feel like the other role Luna received must have been poopy for her to decide to roll a new one, but it's subjective so I dunno.)3. Zinnia - Town Nurse (Zinnia explained that she didn't want this because it'd require the actual doctor to die for her to begin healing others, which is a bit weird because a nurse can still prove beneficial to town, assuming that there's a doctor out there, which may actually be the case but I see where she's coming from. Maybe her other role's better.)
4. Bella - Ascetic Townie (This role seems fine to m?? Well it's not exactly a powerful one since it's not immune to night kill but I guess Bella rolled a much more interesting role than ascetic townie.)5. Skelda - VT (Probably got a town PR, I don't see Skelda choosing to side with any scum faction over VT. But this is Greater Idea so I am less certain about that.)6. Lala - Werewolf (Would worry about not getting a werewolf partner and ended up playing on her own, so I can see why she'd discard this. But have no idea what roles would Lala prefer over werewolf. She could have chosen a mafia/alien role, too.)7. City - Werewolf (Same reasoning as above, she could have decided to join any other faction by picking a role that probably has a special ability to it. Basic werewolf isn't exactly close to being a powerful role so I can see why these are being discarded but just as Lala, I am not going to be bothered to hazard a guess on what she could have picked.)8. Frenchy - Town Hider (This is not a really bad one, but in this game you don't know how many non-towns there are and it seems quite risky to choose a hider, especially when balance is not guaranteed. Could have received a better role but I dunno.)9. Keyen - VT (Knowing Keyen, he'd probably think VT as a boring role to take in this setup so I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up in any other faction that isn't town.)10. Emzy - Alpha Goon (Okay, I don't know what this role does that deserved for it to be called "Alpha" but it really seemed like a mafia goon role to me, except that when being investigated by a vanilla cop they wouldn't be interpreted as "Vanilla" but other than that I just don't see how it's anything different from a regular goon.)11. Rosey - Evangelistic Townie (Kinda useless role as well. I don't think there's cult this game and fingers double crossed there isn't one. Personally I would discard this over almost anything.)12. Choco - Town Tourist (This rule is an absolute pile of trash. Period. The visiting being compulsory does make it even worse. My other isn't exactly powerful either but way better than a feckin' tourist.)

What even is a wild card LMAO Wiki says it's a no alignment role. "Wild Card (No alignment. After discards are revealed, discard the Wild Card and draw one new role which you must keep)." So potentially a really good discard, or a really bad one... This comment kinda reminded me of what Skelda said about scum prone to answering questions and appear helpful more so than an average down player would, even if it's just quoting from the wiki page... I don't think find your answering my question as being particularly scummy as of now but will keep in mind of what Skelda has pointed out. At the meantime, thanks for answering, though.

Your analysis is wrong, and I think you know that.
Having said that, though, I don't think I've played in one of these games where one player wasn't offered two scum roles, so that's something to be looked at.

Why does Skelda probably get a town PR and Keyen probably get another faction that isn't town if they were both offered VT. Does the randomizer like Skelda more than Keyen?
This is just curious to me. It doesn't make me think you are suspicious (I don't). It's just that Skelda would take the more interesting role despite alignment. I think Keyen would do the same.
