Anyway, it's getting late, I was hoping Gerrick would respond by this point, but the reactions from other players will have to do. Letting this fester while I sleep is just a bit too dangerous.
I rescind my cop claim. I do not have a day cop ability. Dolby was right on the money with the reaction test theory.
I specifically chose Gerrick and not someone I also struggle to cold-read like Vro, or someone I'm paranoid about like Dolby, because Gerrick hasn't seen me play in a while, and Vro and Dolby know me well enough that if I faked a red check on them, they'd see it for the reaction test it was, as either alignment.
I found Aerso, Anubhav and TGN's the most believable, and tbh my gut likes ENE's reaction, as well, as it seems to be largely a cultural thing in XKI. Ex and KoD didn't really have any sort of thought process exposed, so whether Gerrick is scum or not, their reaction isn't readable as one alignment or the other. Perhaps the sheer length of time they remained inert about the claim might be telling if Gerrick ever flips scum, though.
Dolby did some analysis of the claim, but my problem with reading it is that I believe he can see through the bullshit as either alignment, even if Gerrick is scum and he's a pack mate.
Changing my name was also a subtle hint that I was being full of shit, lol, since Satan is sometimes known as "The Father of Lies."
