So ya Palmar made a joke at my expense. I wouldn't use that as a basis to get him killed. At least not yet anyways. | ||

Killing Eldricht would be nice to get rid of the third party, but it's not the biggest priority for town on Day 1, because it takes him a while to achieve his win condition. (Like at least 7 nights if greens aren't killed/lynched, unrealistic, I know, but just an example) As well, we have the psychologist who can cure insanity. So, to talk about the set-up a little, do people think it would be a good idea for the psychologist to claim his target at the end of night 1? It makes the psychologist claim early, but that way if he dies, then we have probably found the Eldricht Horror. The only way this wouldn't be the case, would be if mafia shot him, but then he could just claim earlier. (Because mafia don't really want to shoot him right away without reason, as he keeps them from losing the game to insanity as well) There's both Pro's and Con's to this, and it depends on the relative threat that we perceive the Eldricht Horror as. Pros: -Lets us catch the Eldricht Horror more easily, knowing as soon as the Psychologist dies. -Let's us coordinate the Psychologist a little (don't know if this is necessary) Cons: -Mafia know not to shoot the Psychologist, reducing the pool of townies (1 person so not that terrible) -Mafia can screw with town by killing the Psychologist and trying for a mislynch on his target. Personally, I don't really think it's worth it after actually writing out the Pros and Cons, but I don't think I'm going to delete this post because I spent like 5 minutes writing it, and it provides a good start for actual discussion. In my opinion, a better option is actually having the psychologist bread-crumb his visits, so that way, if he ever dies and flips, then we have a list of players cleared of being the Eldricht Horror, and we have a possible target for who the Third Party actually is. Discuss! | ||

Then we have a confirmed scum, and a 1-1 trade with mafia, which benefits town. (No way eldricht would be that stupid). Also, looking at the OP again, I think that our Doctors should also breadcrumb their visits, because insanity is revealed on flip as well, and along with the psychologist, we can cross-reference to find the eldricht horror. As well, all townies should maybe put fake breadcrumbs into their posts, because that way mafia can't blue-snipe by finding all the breadcrumbs. Then, we just ignore any crumbs, until that person flips or claims. | ||

Psy claims -> Aldrich visits FIRST -> psy dies -> the end and aldrich will have his way. Am I correct with the rule part? Oh, missed that too. Doesn't matter though, because I realized him claiming is a bad idea anyways. :p | ||

There are lots of gambits that scum can play by claiming psych, or killing the psych, etc. I don't think psych should claim at all until late game, and if he's killed we need to be very careful with our vigs and medics. | ||

Am I correct with the rule part? Your statement is correct. @tnkted how does insanity effect mafia? Do their kills fail or something? Insanity will not have negative effect on mafia (check OP for extra info), except that when insane mafia targets Eldritch Abomination their hit will fail (check EA role PM to see what happens when sane mafia targets EA for NK). | ||

so that way the psych doesn't have to claim but when he dies we can go back and see who he has checked. | ||

And the doc can't reveal because the mafia will target him Wait, didn't someone say something about the doc debuff being cancelled because of the extra mafia? Or was that not official? And while I'm talking about a docs powers, doc cant heal the psychologist from suicide can he? as far as I can tell, this is a game of all claiming townie and praying the lynches work in our favour | ||
