It is now Day One. You have until 1PM EST (6PM GMT) Wednesday March 30th to achieve a lynch. With 21 active players it is 11 to lynch.

I'm normally against lynching on Day 1 without reason when the number of players is low and the concentration of renowned players is high.

The chances of good scum drawing out a distraction or mislynch is high as is the chance of a charismatic townie latching onto something that proves erroneous after several days and possibly a mislynch or two.

Some people like to campaign and it might be better to wait until there's something to campaign for that isn't purely conjecture.

Now, I've managed to say about 5 things in that above paragraph that would normally attract votes so let me say the following:

1. Yes, I know, Day 1 MEANS "without reason" barring a friendly Megatron incident. Therefore, draw the necessary conclusions.

2. I'm not advocating we sit and twiddle our thumbs until further notice. Simply seeing a night write-up gives us inherently valuable information like how many deaths to expect and any sort of weird paradigms we should know about. How many Day 1's involve random arguments about things that become apparent soon after (the gem people with differently colored role titles in Marvel and people being afraid of the townie survivors in VGM2 come to mind).

3. I'm not advocating we sit and twiddle our thumbs for even this day phase, but I'm also not a fan of "pressure" because "pressure" with an advertised aversion to lynching is kind of toothless. I'd rather we make wild suppositions about what stuff is in this game. What players are willing to guess at (or "guess" at) can give us hindsight when things no longer need to be guessed about. You know scum hate mentioning their characters' names early on and you KNOW some players are bad at pretending to NOT know something (if that makes sense). I doubt anything concrete will come out, but I think we stand a better chance doing something like this than randomly forcing people to claim. Plus, most of us are familiar with Disney at some level (except some weirdos in the group ). Therefore most of us can speculate.

4. To start, I'll say out loud that I am not aware of any Disney/Pixar characters in this game. I'm from a straight-up 2D Disney movie and I think a good thing to figure out early on is what scope this game is taking. That way, scum can't randomly decide to claim Buzz Lightyear later. If you're not from what you'd consider a standard 2D Disney movie, say so. (Recent movies like The Princess and the Frog count, if you're wondering. I'd be wary of anyone claiming to be Chicken Little or something, though, but maybe I have no reason to say that.)

As for villains I am sure have a shot of being in here, in order of likelihood:

Maleficent (Confirmed)
Ursula (Who else would be in the ocean?)
Jafar (Classic)
Hades (Powerful Villain)
Captain Hook (Classic)
The Queen from Snow White (Classic, but Maleficent has is covered)
Frollo (Very Evil, Not Very Powerful)
Doctor Facilier (Recent, Less Notable)
Cruella de Vil (Not Very Powerful)
Gaston (Not As Notable or Powerful)
Pete (Longshot)

Villains I will guess are not in this:

Queen of Hearts (Kind of random)
Scar (He's a lion)
Shere Khan (He's a tiger)
Shan Yu (He's a Hun)

With 21 players, I am going to guess at 1 mafia group of 5 with possibly a serial killer. There'd be no fewer than 4 scum and no greater than 6 (7 would be a lot).

Oh and hi.
Does "last game" mean the game I'm modding? If it does, find another example because using such an example would be pretty much illegal for me to discuss (though, trust me, I'd love to).

Also, I challenge you to explain how doing something once makes all courses of action that MIGHT have similar results better? I might have scored a ringer playing horseshoes after being blinded by pickle juice, but that doesn't mean I'll be looking for pickle juice whenever I play horseshoes... (I dare you to find a weirder analogy.)

As always, I stand by my policy of saying jack on Day 1. I'm especially unwilling to cater to people who pretty much admit they'll roll the dice for the lulz.

I've already provided plenty of valid meta-reasons why I'm town and you've shown you'd rather not really talk about them but rather give specific examples of things as proof of a causal relationship (the big word centers of my brain hurt).

So, yea, we're in store for a great friendship this game.

Also, more tangible proof:

Suddenly, gratuitous use of Magic Kingdom everywhere.

Now, does anyone want to talk about the stuff I took the time to suggest or are we playing vote roulette? (Or, maybe, does anyone have any random lists of their own?)

I will give you one better. Last game (ongoing) would be illegal for anyone to be discussing here of all places.

If the mods added the more recent Disney movies, might add in Mother Gothel from Tangled.

Can I ask why you've ruled out Scar and Shere Khan just because they're animals? Do you think all animals will be ruled out? Or only villanious animals?
