Can we vote for a no lynch?

This isn't really helpful early in the game however it can be helpful once you get to late game it can help make the LYLO more in favor of town such as taking a 3v1 to a 2v1

Huh? I don't understand your post. The confirmed Townie tells the player who he is going to shoot or protect, he doesn't tell all Medics what every Medic is doing.

Since we know how much KP Mafia has I very much doubt any of them are going to be able to claim Vig.

So you want one townie conducting every single vig hit/medic protect/hatter bomb?

k here's an example.

Mafia-I will be protecting player x
Confirmed townie-no someone else is protecting him.

now mafia know's to not hit player x.


I would be more open to this plan day 2 or 3. But all i see is 2 townies getting lynched and losing a dayvig and that person most likely dying the next night.


No, it goes like this:

Mafia-I will be protecting player x
Confirmed townie-stfu I choose who you protect, you'll be protecting player y
Mafia-Okay...


Yup, and if Mafia shoots player Y, and player Y dies, then clearly the medic isn't a medic but is mafia. :/ So if mafia tries to be medic, it effectively hurts them.

But mafia knows that player x probably isn't protected....

But player x is protected in this case, and they wouldn't shoot player Y! They'd shoot player Z because shooting Y would give away the role and if x was the obvious one to protect, they'd assume he was protected.

That being said I highly doubt there are 2 medics anyways so if this situation does arise, I would be VERY suspicious of both of them.


As for the plan, I'm quite worried about it. We would have a confirmed townie, which could be nice IF he could manage to efficiently manage the entire game. It seems a bit risky if they're not very good, they might screw it up and reveal roles. Also, the medic would be tied to defending this one person the entire time no matter what. If someone shows they are DT or vigi, then the mafia will just shoot both if we haven't killed 2 by then. In the mean time, the mafia could just kill him outright, or pick 2 people they KNOW won't be protected, and it's entirely up to them. If they do kill him, then we have (likely) 2 dead townies, and be back to square 1! No confirmed townie, just a dead guy, and the guy he killed.I kind of think that people are hoping he does hit a Mafia, but I really don't see the logic in this plan. It's more likely he'll hit someone important on our team than a mafia.

In the end, i suppose it's entirely up to the dayvigi if the plan goes through, but it just seems highly illogical to me.

There's many things that have the potential to go wrong. Regardless, I agree with you. At it's heart, it's not a bad plan, there are just far too many things that can cause it to be detrimental, and I would be much more comfortable with our blues using their powers as they see fit as individuals. By all means, discuss with a town circle if you can get one going, but until that point, think for yourself.

The point of mass claim to a confirmed townie is to force mafia to fake claim and the dayvig can sort the actions of the blues in a reduced pool of players, confirming the blues and eliminating suspicious people from the right pool. If mafia roleclaims medic even better, the day vig asks for a prot on himself and the mafia can't shoot him, profit. Things can go wrong either way, having an organized plan is better than no plan at all.


The entirety of this is almost based purely on blue roles. This needs to get in your head Sand, there is only 4 mafia. There is no way were going to have 1-2 vigilantes and a medic. Its straight up imbalanced.

In the past few games we've been less reliant on blue roles and won, you want to abuse PMs and the assumption we have such roles to win, this is just going backwards. The fact that you came up with a plan is fine, but you need to come to the realization it is in most cases unrealistic.

Day-vigs should shoot whenever they are certain they have caught onto scum, they should mention it subtly in thread with decent evidence before they shoot but they should not shoot unless:

-It is increadably scummy player who just will not be lynched. (THIS IS YOUR JOB. THIS IS THE OBVIOUSLY SCUMMY PLAYER THAT EVERYONE ELSE IS FAIRLY SURE IS TOWN BUT IS OBVIOUSLY MISLEADING US)
-Lurker.
-People start to say "Yeah hes scummy but this person is more scummy"

Its fine for Day-vigis to do a cleaning role like a night vigilante would. Dont be a hero, you might town and turn out exactly the way you do not want to be. If you wish to claim before you shoot fine, but remember MAKE YOUR OWN DECISIONS BECAUSE SCUM MIGHT BE TRYING TO MAKE THEM FOR YOU.

[00:18] <Drazerk> not sure how they can fake claim

[00:18] <Lucidity> only medic as far as i can see

The fact that he is defending him so hard for such a simple joke is retarded. He is now fully on board with the Sand plan after he realizes how scummy it makes him look for opposing the idea and now is defending himself even more because of my pressure vote.

Oh wait never mind now he hates the plan again... such wishy washy play with no real decision making.

Red Is scum


So your evidence on Red is:

-Hes sort of wishy-washy (I SORT of see it, i really dont see where he starts thinking the plan is a good idea before going back on it)

-Jokes (wtf who uses this as evidence?)

- Hes defending himself much more than he should (Which is probably the only valid point here.)

I fail to see how this has made you determine he is without a doubt scum.

There are likely 5-6 blues in this setup and if the confirmed townie is any good it's quite easy for him to look at the claimed blues and deduce which claims are unlikely due to balance concerns. I would expect at most one to fake claim. There is no way there's more than one day vig, and unless we find a a compelling target today I don't think it's worthwhile to "waste" the shot today just to mass claim today rather than, say, tomorrow when there's more information and likely time if we proceed immediately. We can just go ahead with the mass claim plan once we get a confirmed townie and personally I think that's ideally tomorrow.

it isn't any safer tomorrow the mafia can still just kill the day vig that night i don't see why we'd ever do it the day vig should use his shot when he is ready

This game follows normal voting rules. You may not abstain. The person with the most votes at the end of the day will be lynched. So no, No Lynching is not an option.

A rule of thump is blue #=mafia #, ie. 4 blues in this setup. There is 3 vigi types in the game, so I'm guessing we have at least one vigi type of role. There is a special mechanic regarding veterans/roleblockers, so I'm guessing there is at least one of those as well. Rest is a bit more vague, could be a heavy vigi setup, or could be a vigi and a medic. In any case, even normal vigi's are some of the easiest to confirm roles when we know the mafia KP, so a mass claim should be possible.

I like syllogism's post above me though, a shot tomorrow is more likely to hit mafia.

Haha, I guess I was still in the Asylum mindset with mass blue everywhere - somehow thought that all 7 blue roles listed would be in the game. ~4 blues make sense and we're very unlikely to have 2 medics in that, so a plan to coordinate them this early isn't actually that great.

I think the only time that we should be claiming is if Mafia only have 1 KP left or if a Day Vig hits a Vet, leaving us with 2 confirmed townies. One of them will survive the night and be able to pass on info~
