Re: DTT Revival - Game 1 ; Day 2
"Firstly, we do not have 100% proof that Keiko has been targeted by the crazed maiden, we simply have her word on that. We have no reason to doubt her word at this point, but it's important that we take stock of what is a known truth and what is simply claimed and by whom.
"Whether or not Keiko was targeted by the crazed maiden does not affect her actual alignment, which could be good or bad" (or another neutral, which all seem to be different forms of bad anyway as none of them are necessarily anything but a liability to the Shintos, even the benigns).
I also would like GM confirmation about what the actual goals of the Possessed/Infested Maidens are, as pertains to win condition. From reading it over, it sounds as if they just simply add to the kill count at night and cannot be killed except by lynch (Another reason to use it rather than not use it.) It seems as though these roles cannot win, as they will either kill off the last cultist (thus ending the game with a Good victory) or they will kill off enough Shintos to satisfy the Cultist victory.

Miyuki walks along the temple grounds, feeling the scornful gazes of some of the other maidens. It bothered her that they were angry at her for speaking her mind, but she had conviction in her beliefs. Most of them seem far too dependent upon the flurry and chaos of night actions - did her fellow true Shintos actually believe they were on equal terms with the evils at night? Powers that could negate Shintos' abilities, Shintos that could accidentally harm each other during the night, so many potential killing roles that could render any gained information moot. There was no certainty at night. That was the point that some seemed to be forgetting. The only certainty, the only 100% true facts would be the revealed roles of the dead and the words and vote records of each and every individual who spoke up.
Of course there were the Wills - but there were at least two possible enemies that could alter Wills anyway, making even those sources of information not 100% certain. Ikumi (Toxicshock) should know the truth of this well, seeing as she was the Temple's archivist and had read many manuscripts detailing battles between Shinto and Cultists in the past. Yet she chose to champion Wills without acknowledging the blatant weakness due to Illusionists and Defilers.

"If you believe in not voting, then perhaps we could get a tally by 'voting to abstain.' That way we can see where everyone currently is and we can also see who has not actually joined the conversation yet."
(GM: Would it be possible, when you do your vote tallies, for you to list the names of the people who are voting on an individual?
For example: Hentaispider (2/6 votes needed to lynch; voters are BlueSlime and Toxicshock))
