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.) If you think I'd choose Scum over VT, then you don't know me clearly.

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. You got it right, but I'd still prefer VT over scum though.

Hi guys! My EMMM says Frenchy, Rosey, & Skelda. VOTE: Frenchy How could be so sure that there are just three bad guys in this game? Especially when no one knows for sure what and how many factions are out there. Plus I don’t think balance is guaranteed given the setup so we could be dealing with more or fewer scum this time around. Heck, town may actually be the minority here, for what it’s worth. But my take of this is you were simply picking out the three people you suspect the most as your instincts have ordered you to do so.

Does anyone know if Keyen actually prefers VT over scum roles? Not even the powerful ones?
I don’t know whether I trust that declaration of his yet.

I always just do 3 people for my EMMM unless the setup explicitly says that it has 2 or less mafia.

Those are some very boring discards. Not much information to be gleaned from them. Not sure about Choco chewing Zinnia out for not taking nurse. Mild suspicion there.

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: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.) Luna, any explanation as to why you discarded that? It seems like it’d be pretty OP. I know she hates being mafia, and she’d probably pick it over a mafia role.

Sophia, look at the list of discards and tell me if it's overpowered, lol.
Nope. You might end up with a selection of trash.

I think wild card is a random discard usually, although sometimes you get to choose I guess. Depending on what system is used, it can either be really good or pretty bad. And if your other option is good then a muffin in the hand is worth two in the bush.
