No one understood what they were doing here. Carrie was at her most manic, despite Saul's attemps to calm her down, and the Brodys were outraged by the way they had been brought in this room and how no one would tell them anything about what was going on. Even Estes had tried to reason with the guards, to no avail. Finally, Dar Adal entered the room and explained the situation :

- There has been a leak at the CIA, a leak that could only come from one of you. As a result, I'm stepping in as temporary director of the CIA, and you are all suspects of treason.

Carrie almost managed to get a hold of him, but she was hauled off by the guards and, before anyone else had any time to react, he was gone. They were by themselves now, and had to figure things out.

PM's have been sent out, now waiting for everyone to confirm via PM or posting in your QT.

While I'm here : the flavor in this game is just flavor, except for one character.

Everyone was still in shock, but then Chris Brody (yuma, the Inocent Child), of all people, spoke up.

"But, but... I wasn't even there when my dad got that super secret document, I was at my karate competition ! This is so unfair, I shouldn't be here !"

"Well then", Saul said. "That's one less suspect at least. Now let's figure this out."

Day 1 starts now !

I just realized that this particular deadline might be somewhat inconvenient for American players. I will move it one day later if needed.

We can skip the theory talk here, right? We've played this setup before and mass claim day one won't help us.

Sometimes there are ways for town to get a significant advantage by having players with Power Roles claim at the beginning of the game and then following a plan, i.e. "follow the cop". "Theory talk" refers to analyzing the setup to see if this is the case. Some players also advocate it as a way to get discussion started, which can be difficult sometimes. What I'm saying is, this setup is very well designed to prevent town from doing this, and that a lot of theory talk at the beginning of the game can also bog things down, as well as giving scum an easy way to appear productive and towny, so we shouldn't have to waste a lot of time with it here.

Also, welcome to your first game!

Since we have an IC that means we rolled at least 2 M's (either 2 or 4), so mafia has at least a 1-shot strongman and a roleblocker?

This is true, and also completely unhelpful. Scum points for scott.

I actually like theory in general.  And not everyone has played this setup.  But I agree that there isn't a merit in mass claim.

Why is what Scott said completely unhelpful?

My point is, this set up is very simple, we can't really guess what PRs we have (besides IC obviously) and claiming only makes their PRs better. And yeah, what scott points out is true, but scott's comment is both fairly obvious when you read the setup and kind of pointless to point out at this point in the game.
