ashersky is a Cylon.

Boo.

Can anyone confirm this is accurate?

[MiX]

Having read all that, ash is clearly town.

Everyone needs to talk. Do not vote ash, feel free to vote other people. We cannot trust this result like that.

I have more thoughts on this, but everyone should check in and see the result of the test, and ash's fullclaim, before we decide on a course of action.

Welp, if I’m secretly Cylon-aligned as I suspect, I’m not helping my faction out.  Although it could just be much bigger than a normal mafia.

Being "secretly cylon-aligned" is bastard. However, the non-bastard equivalent is not, you could have an Awaclus-like ability to turn scum. But that's only if you are a cylon.

[MiX]

My flavor is Galen Tyrol.  While in the show Galen is a military member, highest ranking NCO on board by the end of the show, in the game I am Civilian, which makes zero flavor sense but must make some sort of mechanics sense.

I have two powers, one which I will not explain but can be easily explained after I am dead.  The other is a basic recharger — target someone and give them a shot of a power they already have.  Fairly useless, but I guess fits with the mechanic flavor character.

I think mechanics are civilians.

If I am a Cylon, which is different than alignment, we still absolutely must exile me.

It is unlikely that “Town-aligned Mafia” exists.  Even if being a member of the mafia is separate from being mafia-aligned, it is just very hard to reconcile.

I agree with the first statement.

You're town. You are very much town. If you're a cylon, you might have Awaclus' ability to randomly be able to turn scum.

I did notice a HUGE difference though that I think supports the possibility that I’m not actually human-aligned. 

For town-confirmed players, of whom we only have one, playername, flavorname, and alignment were all green.

In my QT, only one was green.  The rest were the neutral bold black, which is standard mod formatting for “unknown” data points.

Man, I’m an idiot for not noticing that in the first place...

Clearly you got the same coloring as anyone else. In fact, you would've gotten more colors if faust was trying to decieve you, not less Nevertheless, that would be bastard.

Reflecting back on the “results could be wrong” portion of the examination thing, a greater than 50% chance of a lie seems too close to BM for faust’s style.  I feel like we can safely assume 50/50 as worse case.  Like, a 90% chance of a lie seems like a super yucky mechanic.

I assume it's 50% wrong, which means completely inaccurate. Of course this can't be the case, but I think that's how we should look at the info if no one has anything indicating the contrary.

[A Drowned Kernel]

I seriously doubt ash is secretly scum aligned but was told he is was town. If that turns out to be true then honestly, I probably won't play in the remaining games

I'm much more inclined to mix's view that scum might have the ability to turn cylon players. That sounds like a one-shot ability to me, though, so I don't know that exiling ash is a must

Note that this is in violation of rule 1.1 (aka the "no quoting" rule). As a result, today only, ashersky will take one vote fewer to exile than he would have otherwise.

Then, did I also violate the rule here?

That's how it is in my QT, too. I don't think it means anything.

Forgot to bold, the above was a question to faust

Yes. I decided that the person who instigated the discussion bears most of the blame, so only ashersky gets in-game consequences.

[ashersky]

Describing the colors is in no way a quotation as far as I can see.  So I’ll disagree there, but clearly don’t care one bit considering I need to be exiled anyway.

[ashersky]

I literally avoided writing any of the words in my QT at all.

Although, I’m fairly certain I see a pretty easy loophole to ensure my own exile if I need it.

If it’s the second, we don’t know anything about shots.  Could be a recruitment mechanic to win the game, seeking out all Cylons or something.  If so, I’m part of the mafia win condition.

Please don't exile yourself ash.

[ashersky]

@mix: my character is specifically given a military rank (on the wiki) and seems to get promoted by the end.  I haven’t watched the show, but sounds specifically military.

Well, technically it’d be a modkill.  I don’t plan to; I plan to convince all town players to vote for me.

[LaLight]

i need to have a town-aligned Cylon alive in the end of the game. anti-vote: ash

Do they start the show with a military rank?

You don't need to do that. Just trust the rest of town.

What is that. Is that vote mechanical?

[LaLight]

which means, I presume, there's more than one, or it would be impossible. ash, don't please, try to help me if you can

[ashersky]

Google images shows my character in a military uniform as well.  Unless everyone wears those?

no it's a figure of speech

That might be after the promotion.

PPE: Okay, cool.

Are you town?

could you imagine how screwed up i would be if i would not have been town? of course i am. that's a part of my arc

[LaLight]

ash, flavor doesn't matter in case of who is and isn't a cylon, or that would've been too easy. you read human-aligned in qt? you're human aligned. test showed you're cylon? you're probably one.

that happened, let's exile scum now. WCD or MiX, pick one

[ashersky]

Per wiki, I’ve been serving on battleships since age 18.   An NCO is enlisted first, as far as I know, so to be an NCO on Galáctica at all, I had to have enlisted before the show started.

[LaLight]

ash, give me some kind of confirmation you're reading me.

[ashersky]

I agree in the sense that just because a flavor character is/isn’t a Cylon on the show, they have to/can’t be here.  My point is that cylons are bad, regardless of who the flavor character is.  If this was HP mafia and Harry Potter was a Cylon, he’d be the evil version of Harry.
