I find how Reflec there ignored that whole posted plan makes him look infinitely + 1 more suspicious.
You're getting awfully defensive for someone who pretends to have nothing to hide.
What are you afraid of?

Thanks, Frost. I can trust you to have my back.

Im afraid of everything that happens in every game always. Everyone believe B:L or someone else well known, because they won't lie because they are well known and they stab you in the back. But no one ever listens to me and i get taken out on like day one in every damn game.
Kay as a backup for the Test? You're blowing my mind.
Let me clarify that.
B:L wants everyone to group up with 1 other person. This is bad for 1 specific reason. It says in the op that if you are paired with IT then you have a good chance of being turned. So what does "IT" (B:L) want us to do? Go off in groups of 2. But in the op it says that you are safer in larger groups, so why not groups of 3 or 4 B:L? Why do you want people to have a good chance of being turned instead of a safer chance in medium sized groups?

Because we can never trust the host.
But I meant Rainfall. She's always suspicious to me.

What about the plan do you disagree with? We can still discuss it, but it seems solid enough to me.
Don't just say you disagree completely and then go ahead with the part of the plan about pairing up.
If someone wants to group up with me AND rainfall, go ahead

MacGuffin do you want to pair up? You seem like a very level headed person.
I said that larger groups are fine, but I believe that smaller groups are optimal.
We're safer in large groups...provided that the thing isn't in our group. The groups have a stronger chance against an attack from without, but much more people are vulnerable to an attack from within. If the thing is in a large group, it puts everyone in that group at risk and it makes it much harder to narrow down who it is.
This does seem optimal. My worry though is that the thing has a very large group of targets to work with, and while one group may be safe, if the thing isn't found early enough that other half would be completely compromised. The other issue is figuring out which group is the compromised one.
I'm against the partner pairing system, but if we're going to work with it, then sure, we could pair up.
What do you think is wrong with the pairing system, MacGuffin?
People in pairs are harder to convert, unless the thing is in their group, in which case they are EASIER to convert instead.
That's why I believe in smaller groups over larger ones, but I don't believe Brian understands that part, either through mishap or...

Could you clarify who has accepted an association in your list. Since rainfall hasn't responded yet, we arn't officially associated.

I'm overtly suspicious of Dr. Blair.

Trust's a tough thing to come by these days.
I wonder how the trust and distrust plays out. Perhaps a strong distrust would make it harder for the thing to spread to that person in a group? Or maybe it means it's tougher for a group to defend each other if the thing strikes.
Also, The_Reflection, would you like to be buddies?
Think of it as a public seer vote, with a bonus vigilante kill if you're a bad guy. A vigilante kill with FIRE.
Sure!

Once things are all confirmed, that leaves Bliss and Maximus to pair up.
2. Does the test happen before or after we snuggle up for the night?
I'm all set to pair with Maximus, although for the record I too would have preferred larger groups. Waiting for confirmation from Maximus / Kay.
I do think B:L should be tested.
You seriously don't think The_Reflection was acting weird when I suggested that he get tested first?
