A. Poyzin never confirmed apparently. :/ B. If Poyzin were the General, he would've had to choose his conspirators over a week ago in order for everyone else to receive roles to confirm, so the "Poyzin is general who took a while to pick conspirators" theory doesn't really hold any water.
A. DekuNut didn't confirm everyone in thread, but at least my role PM tells me to do as such. B. I've only been part of the game since yesterday, so of course I did.
That doesn't really make sense because Piko confirmed a day before everyone else and the General would receive their role PM first? I'd think that that would make him the most likely General.
For me it says he confirmed on the 7th and everyone else was one the 8th. (Exempting myself and Poyzin.)
As far as I'm aware, once the timestamp no longer lists it, you can't. :/ Mods might be able to but I'm not sure.
Confirming isn't something people usually put a lot of thought into. There's a chance he confirmed before he even read his role and knew he was the General. Or that he just went to the thread and confirmed after receiving it because a. Nobody ever takes confirmation posts into account for anything (except apparently now) and b. He'd received a role PM and he was obviously supposed to.
And as others have said there is the argument that the general would have considered that. Trying to base possible mafia off of “who they would choose“ is frankly pure WIFOM.
Now I’m home, before I was at work.
Yeah I started reading through the thread and then work got really busy.
Everyone is basically a vanilla so I don’t think it’s that busted. And there is no way to prove roles unless someone dies.why is the thread not pinging me anymore
See, now I'm getting paranoid that I'm falling for someone's trap, but all the discussion here seems to be centered on whether or not the general is trying to employ reverse-psychological tactics on us, which is admittedly confusing the hell out of me
I'd still like to hear from Mido, and there's still a bit more time to consider me moving my vote, so I'll stay where I am for now, I guess.
Also I might be misunderstanding the setup, but it seems kind of busted that people can kind of openly claim without risk of being NK'd. Even getting killed D4 is entirely dependent on whether or not the general chooses the loyalist (and prince?) as a kill target, which is completely luck-based since it happens before the game even starts.
I don’t think it’s as bold as you make it out to be. Especially if you make the logic seem like a solid case.
They could have taken a while just thinking about it, though I thought the delay was because Deku forgot to start it.
I get a role, I confirm naturally. I think everyone does so it’s not strange to confirm without prompting.
How?
I can see the logic in that last part. But that would depend on how deli tells them theyre the general, so I don’t think we should use that to decide.
I have no idea how to interpret the ... but I know I've sometimes confirmed upon seeing that I have a role PM rather than upon checking what it is.
I don't intend to vote anyone solely on the basis of confirmation posts, but I don't see why that would stop me from discussing it when that's where the conversation went.
It makes no sense for the host to tell the General to confirm in thread when not all roles have been sent out. If that happened, then it would be a host mistake. Confirmations of your role is after you’ve read it - I don’t think your anecdote holds much value here, especially if one reads the rules on the General picking.
While you're probably right about most of this, the General could confirm despite not having been told to just because that's his natural response to receiving his role PM, regardless of whether "didn't read the role until after confirming" is a possibility.
I’ve confirmed without properly reading plenty of times, but there is just no way to know what exactly Piko did or how the general thing worked.

Or at least there's a chance it might not idk what time zones you guys are and even if I did most players don't really seem to be paying attention.
