Typically a slightly nerfed Nintendo Loop classic, “colour detective”, where instead of learning “town”/“mafia” you learn like “blue”/“orange” and you don’t know which corresponds to which
Okay i dont like cop because i think the dayplay that it causes isnt interesting
i was in a game with this role once except the colors were just the given factional colors
we n1’d lol because they were the best player in flicker
Once, when I was wolf, my team correctly spotted that a player was colour detective, and correctly spotted exactly the checks he had been crumbing, and correctly spotted that there was just a death of one of his checks, meaning he had a redcheck on me
…so at SoD, I claimed colour detective, with a redcheck on him.
I merely tolerate village idiot botc because the dayplay is more interesting but it is still a cop
The counterclaim looked terrible!
He left the server after that one
Unempathetic . . .
it feels so good to look at the kill-log of my past wolf wins.
I also really like the push-your-luck gameplay of cop, like in my first game we were cop and got a redcheck but decided to crumb it/push it as a social read because we thought we would never get nightkilled since we were highly suspicious (we got nightkilled as we were about to get a second redcheck
That one was “cop, but you know there’s also a cop with reversed checks in the game, and you don’t know which one you are”, which is. OK well it’s extremely poewrful but also fairly fun
The dayplay isn’t that interesting but I’m used to playing in places with strong “don’t reveal redchecks first thing” etiquette so shrug I don’t mind thaaat much given it can do a lot of fun things
it still annoys me that silviu made us plan an entire nightkill and play for an extra 24h in a mechlocked game because they wanted to sleep
flicker also annoys me in general but i like blaming things on silviu when i can
Silviu asked me whether they should call it, and I said “I’m busy RN… don’t call it immediately it’ll make me SAD” and so it’s my fault
That’s funny. Flicker annoys me too
Simply dont sleep (I was sleeping when players hammered once and woke up to people thinking i went awol and someone else had to take over the game)
why would silviu listen to you.
i keep trying to claim night one hypothetical red checks and without fail people will ask me to confirm if ti is real
IDK like I think vanilla “cop” isn’t the most interesting role in the world but even mild variants create fun situations precisely because it is so powerful
