I HAVE WHITE FRIENDLINESS PELLETS FOR EVERYBODY IN THE THREAD
Well, alright.
This pair seems about right.
VOTE: Rest
Me and Time are Love-aligned Buddy Cops. Once per night, we can investigate another team to see their role name.
Oh my god Oh my god Oh my GOD OH MY GOD! Look at these totally cute unicorns! I'm a huuuuuuuge fan of "Robot Unicorn Attacks" and we're like in fantastically similar love tunnel room of this game <3 sooooo adorbzz
Listen to the music, feel the music, feel the ~love~
Finally there is a place I feel like home. And I'm together with you all and most importantly with my one and only Launchie <3 It's great to experience this astonishing journey!
What a beautiful day! And don't mind me saying, but you all look marvellous in your Sunday dresses. A perfect day to set sails and start our voyage. The warmest thoughts wander through my mind, not a single reason to doubt anyone of you. I sincerely hope we will travel without harm and may enjoy our trip. Oh, look at this cute bear guiding us all the way.
Do you want to share your thoughts? It would be lovely to get acquainted with each other. What do expect of this game? Feel safe to talk about your fears and doubts. Nobody will look down on you, there won't be any harassment. This is a positive place. I invite you all to make this day the best day one ever! Let's enjoy ourselves
Keep in mind, we are all living beings and have a heart! Be kind, be gentle, spread love <3

Why would anybody play in a stupid forum game?
So Flux, why'd you claim so early. What could you possibly gain from it. You haven't even had a chance to check anyone so you can't say you found scum. If you did this on Day 2, it might make a little bit more sense, but as is you're putting a target on yourself unnecessarily.

He didn't save you, why should you save him?

You can never get rid of a bad Xam infestationHey, aren't you supposed to play in another game?
Shoo, shoo
I'm a bit puzzled by what you want to tell us Flux You are a cop? The single most valuable role on town's side in a mafia game? Don't you know the best way to utilize your power is to be calm and don't give away your situation?
We all make mistakes once in a while, but we haven't even done the welcoming party on our boat. Surely you have a good reason for your behaviour and I am most eagerly to hear it. Please I believe in your capability, explain yourself, so I can share my love again <3
Oh, cabot-chan... why, o, why?

Flux the cop
1) Terrible.
2) He's telling the truth and is extremely confident there's a doctor in this game (It is likely, but still not confirmed) and now the doctor is going to be protecting this pair for at least tonight. This claim saves the lovers for at least this day phase and probably the next night phase.
3) He's lying and this is a gambit of some form
a) Scum gambit, get the doctor to hit the claim and stay alive for the first day. It seems pretty much a problematic gambit, because while you're safe for day one, the longer you live will getting more suspicious. Resolving that through either bussing a scum partner or just hoping all your town targets are trusted. Maybe best of both world scenario if he hits a neutral char.
b) Neutral gambit. Not really sure what this would entail. Claiming cop so early would only make sense for a lyncher role, and that would be day 2 when he could claim his lynch target was scum.
c) town gambit. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Testing to see the reactions perhaps?

There are two reasons that the role was disclosed: one that I won't elaborate on now, and the other because I just came from Heist, where a last minute role claim confused and sealed the fate of Town. Doing it now will at least give us more information, instead of having to discuss about nothingness on Day 1.
Reactions are important, too.

My guess is reaction baiting. I'm not sure I believe any claim that early, but Mafia is a game of talking and we can always get info straight from the horses mouth so...
Vote: FluxWaveZ
Why did you claim this now, in your intro post? If you're a cop, why wouldn't you wait until at least Day 2 when you have someone else who could confirm your role for you?
No, but that's alright.
It gave us more info but it also puts stress on the doctor, just like the Tories in the UK. It's all connected.
Rickroll just came on the love playlist, never a more fitting time for that song.
To elaborate on the scum gambit theory: only way I could see it been done this early was if scum had a voyeur role and will use it tonight to check who visits flux/time.

Hell yeah, so let's do it today instead of tomorrow. What's happening now is way better than having to listen to Gorlak's love spiel crap.
Yeah that was confusing because it was a game supposed to be vanilla town vs mafia and a neutral was in the mix, I don't think this is an adequate response to that takeaway.
But with claiming today, now your own lives are in danger, you can't guarantee that there is a doctor who will protect you tonight. You're risking our cop's life with a gambit which could easily be done tomorrow. I get wanting to have stuff to talk about on Day 1, but this is absurd, claiming cop with no information right now.
Have you ever heard of this loveless person called veteran? They can't feel love... they can't even be touched, they'll never experience love to their fullest
How against it was he?
That's true, but we also don't know what kind of roles are in play in Love Boat, either. This at least gives the rest of you an idea.
I live on the edge, man.
Yay we've started!
Oh boy we've started

A scum veteran?
I'm unsure if you meant that in the mafia role sense or a flavour sense.
Both are equally suspicious. Scum veteran is a superpower, remember this game is a 5/10 on crab scale 2.0
Hey, I'm not gonna speak for my partner. I'll let him answer that.
A five out of ten game, man. five out of ten. It's not gonna be batshit. It'll only be batsnacks.
I think Time has fainted.
This is more reckless than the edge man. You've basically told scum team both:
1) Where the cop (allegedly) is.
2) Where the doctor role is likely to protect at night.
That takes care of a lot of doubt during the night phase for them. It leaves open a lot of other players as potential targets at night.
Flux that was terrible
The Heist excuse is also terrible.
Maybe this is true and you thought this could get the doctor to cover you while you investigate each night. If so, congratulations on being a moron. Burb isn't a fool, scum would 100% have protection from this. They likely wouldn't even need to kill you to negate your ability.
OR
Maybe this a bold scum gambit. Too bold, no need to bring attention to yourself so early. Some of us like a challenge, you know?
OR
Maybe this is some bold (and stupid) townie gambit. Ok, what's phase 2?

First off, we don't know that there is a doctor. Second off, I don't think our role is as useful as some people freaking out are making it seem.
Also, I could just say this: if there is a doctor, don't protect us tonight.
a cop seems pretty useful...unless you're a 30 percent 1-shot cop who unknowingly sees non-scum as scum, and scum as non-scum.
How could a doctor not protect the only claimed town role at night? Especially one that seems as a valuable as a cop? I'm considering voting on you with my partner if Time can't clear this up.
We don't see alignments.
