Hello that was less than I thought.
My co-host is out at the moment and I'm bad at making game related decisions, but I did get a question about this privately.
I am tentatively going to say yea you can guess the roles of other people but the person cannot definitively reply (e.g. either straight up say yes or no, or construct an answer that makes it incredibly obvious to everyone without saying yes or no that the answer is yes or no). I guess it's already kind of happened while I was gone so there's nothing I can really do about it now BUT!! if you are unsure please check with me.
What I mean by the way is something like this:
Not okay wrote:Kiyoko: nautilus, your role is totally a fisherman!
nautilus: I cannot reply to your question but I will say that my job involves catching fish, I live on a boat, I am very good with fish, my role involves fishing rods and hooks and catching Big Ones and I constantly smell like salmon all the time at any given moment.
and not

nautilus: I cannot say yes or no. My role does involve water, though.
I'd like to remind everyone that outright dumping your role name, role flavour, or anything that is to the point where someone can reasonably infer the contents of your entire role PM is not okay. So something like this:
Not okay wrote:I am an animal that really enjoys barking that may or may not have died at some point. I have magical ghostly swapping powers and am also best dog. My name rhymes with the main character of Ghost Trick, which I am also from. It also starts with an M. I am best dog
is not okay. We're not really enforcing this rule hard and this isn't targeted at any given individual but really is a general kind of statement gathered from a few questions I've been asked and no one's really in trouble right now oh god this post probably makes it seem like someone's in trouble I'm sorry I'm worst thread babysitter.
