katze picked dare in truth or dare and was told to make a GI class so here is said GI class @Arete you nerd

“why are we still here? just to suffer?”

Town Investigative

katze (Passive) - You cannot receive additional uses of any of your abilities from any means other than your own abilities. You may not use more than one ability per night, regardless of any effects that may occur.

nerd above (Day) - Target a player who you have used all three of your night abilities on. You may call them a nerd in the thread, even if you are dead, or unable to post for any other reason. (if you cannot post by normal means, your message may only contain “@(target) nerd”) - infinite uses

Untrusted, except it only has things that the community considers “balanced” and not underpowered

Town Special
Lynches every phase (Passive): Town may talk and lynch during the night (but mafia can also kill during the day which takes affect at the start of the night (the mafia getting a kill isn’t actually in Untrusted (but the lynch every phase is), obviously, but this role would be broken without it which really says something))
Person of interest (Passive): The journalist can get a scoop on you. (We don’t actually know why the dev decided to add this passive to every single role except a few instead of just tie it to the journalist he just did)
Angleshootable night order (Passive): The host must tell players if another player succeeded in an action another player was trying to do. (This is because Untrusted’s night order is done in real time and everyone knows when it lags behind and if there was a player before them that succeeded in the action they were trying to do.) Also, the host must give a number between 1 and 20 depending on the amount of different feedback a player received. (This is because Untrusted’s night timer extends the more feedback a singular player has, as there is intervals between being given a single piece of feedback rather than being given all feedback at once. Everyone can see the extension of the night time timer.)
Disorganised Murder (Night): Target a player. Has a chance to kill them. The chance is undisclosed because the game developer can’t actually balance the game and has to keep chances behind closed doors so nobody angleshoots, creates a meta or know when it’s actually useful to use an ability. The host decides the chance. (Infinite uses from night 4 onwards). The host can edit this chance without telling you, because the edits to chances are also never revealed in the patch notes (presumably)
Murder Journalist (Night): Target a player. Kill them. This only works on players of the neutral faction with “Journalist” in their name, even if strongmanned. (One use)
CCTV (Night): Target a player. Permenantly place a camera on them that tells you all of their visitors every night. Anyone else with this ability also learns your feedback. (2 uses)
