I've been thinking about it, trying to find a hole in it for the last hour or so, and so far I find it foolproof. Doesn't mean there isn't a hole, just means I haven't found one

I'm alright with it. Let's do it!

I can think of a couple flaws.

Mafia claims Watcher, which is which?
Roles already sent their PMs in
We have random townies showing up
We have more than 1 Watcher
We have more than 1 Tracker,DT, Medic
Target gets framed so we lynch xelin and we don't know which blue we can't trust.

This is why a simple version is better

if the watcher sees more than 2 or 3 people we know xelin got framed, or there are multiple trackers, which i highly doubt

Well, mafia may interrupt the plan but it definitely seems like it'll give us more information about scum; they are forced to fakeclaim or either get crushed by new town circle. Even if there are more than one blue roles, there really cannot be more than two. Just start verifying people's claims - it really shouldn't be that hard to do - and town has this fixed unless somebody starts acting stupid.

1. Watcher will know all the roles that acted, if a green gets a PM saying he acted well... and if a blue acted and didnt get a PM, the watcher is either being safe or some other problem like roleblock or mental issues. A mafia isnt going to start PMing people.
2. Anyone who actually reads the thread will not send a PM yet, and if they did, they would only screw everything up anyway.
3. What?
4. The more the merrier, how is this a bad thing, a watcher PMs a watcher, vice versa and they should realize that they are both watchers. Other wise they stay silent until a safer form of communication is available (Someone claims and they can prove it) If there information matches up, we can be pretty safe in assuming this isnt a problem.
5. The watcher doesnt have to say anything if he gets 20 people visiting one person. He can be pretty satisified with more blues. If there are less then 4 visitors, either mafia missed their boat, or we have a severe blue handicap.
6. I think we can assume this is going to happen, and if it doesnt, oh well. Xelin isnt the crucial part, its that the watcher gets information we can use, he just needs to figure out a way to get it to us.

The only thing I see beneficial in not doing this, is getting lucky with blue actions on night 1, as in DT checking a red, medic saving someone, or some other stuff. It doesnt really hurt us that a watcher who knows he is town, and the only issue would be mafia getting a hold of that info.

all i'm saying is that xelin might be innocent, even if he comes up red, depending on how many people the watcher saw visit him in the night.

@ LSB: also, assume we only have 1 watcher, what if they die? what if they are inactive, and haven't see the plan? what is the plan's take on the watcher claiming?

This actually brings up a good point. This plan hinges on one person surviving the night, as well as being active enough to notice the plan and agree to it.

It's highly likely he'll survive the night. If he's not paying attention, though... at best the plan is useless, at worst mafia can turn it against us somehow.

Okay, yeah, it hinges on the watcher. I've tried my best to get this flaw fixed as best I've can. I've layed out the plan, I've PMed everyone so the watcher should be alerted of the plan.

The purpose of the plan is to have the watcher claim, and therefore we have a confirmed townie
We're going to protect the watcher after he claiming by busdrivering the watcher with someone random. That way the watcher can't be targeted by the mafia.

Another glitch with the plan would be if XeliN is the only watcher. But looks like from his posts he is not


rastaban, I'm assuming your questions are answered? It sounds like you misunderstood the plan. The purpose would be that it would be impossible for the mafia to guess every person who visited XeliN.
And even if they did, we'll we'd be screwed anyways.

Don't worry the watcher will NOT ignore the plan. By the way the first thing they should do is make a post when they log in the next day. Also, if I'm correct watcher is tracked, they'll be seen not visiting anyone? That's the way it usually is anyhow. Just for future reference.

I think it's pretty much a given that mafia will frame Xelin, in order to mess with the blue count and make it so Xelin is not confirmed. If Xelin comes up anything other than red he's gotta be the GF, is how i'm seeing it.

People just have to not be stupid and claim too early until things are confirmed. Maybe that is asking too much, though.

Could someone PM my role or what I'm expected of in this plan? I'm slightly confused although only skim read posts in between HoN games so far.

Yeah i think any plan has to have a built in resiliency to town stupidity. Of course here we face the obstacles of people being too open in PM Land or an inactive watcher. The former is obviously more dangerous.

Say the plan goes through, i think this is the scenario we face:

Watcher gets a list of names. At least one of these names is mafia (framer, roleblocker). The rest are blues. Now maybe the mafia take a gambit and decide not to visit Xelin at all under the pretense that we assume they actually did visit him. And that could fuck with us. But I think framer will visit Xelin for sure in order to make it so the DT doesn't know Xelins role.

they might not want to visit at all on the off chance they're found out, because there's only certain roles that can visit

but it's a pretty wifom line of reasoning

yeah exactly, it's circular.

i guess at this point it's kinda useless to further speculate and we have to wait and see what happens.
