Oh, you mean that just lynching Oats would be better.

Unless we wanna settle with doc and not JK counterclaiming. But in that case if we have no counterclaim, we have to accept the risk of there either being 1) a JK blocking the NK or 2) a JK blocking scums night action.

Can we really live with that risk?

I see what you're saying.
If he really is doctor, however, this would be really terrible.

I already admitted I am bad at following this kind of argument about role possibilities and such, but I agree that Oats has been scummy and that him claiming blue does nothing in terms of making any of his actions any less scummy but I am having a really hard time justifying lynching a claimed blue when there is no evidence that he is lying about it. Can you maybe more succinctly say why just lynching him is the best option - because I am not following you and am hesitant about doing something like that.

I don't think I can make it easier than this:


Exhibit A: Why we don't want just doc to counterclaim.

We could do like this:

1. Doc, please counterclaim!
a) Counterclaim happens: we lynch scum Oats and lose our doc.
b) If counterclaim doesn't happen, proceed to 2.

2. JK, please counterclaim!
a) Counterclaim happens: we lynch Oats (who might still be doc)
b) Counterclaim doesn't happen: we have confirmed Oats

Scenario 1: Oats is doc
a) We have a JK: we've outed our JK and we've mislynched our doc (lol)
b) We don't have a JK: we have confirmed Oats

Scenario 2: Oats is scum
c) We have doc: we've outed our doc and lynched scum Oats
d) We have a JK: we've outed our JK and lynched scum Oats

a) is stricly dominated by just lynching Oats
b) is good
c) is stricly dominated by just lynching Oats
d) is stricly dominated by just lynching Oats

Conclusion: JK claiming seems bad


Exhibit B: Why we don't want to counterclaim with doc but not JK

If that's the case, Oats' claim can still be fake


1. We don't want both doc and JK to counterclaim.
2. We don't want just doc to counterclaim
Conclusion: We don't want to counterclaim, we want to lynch Oats

Makes sense. Yeah, a counterclaim would do no good - it would confirm/deny Oats' claim but also out the blue claiming.

I didnt breadcrumb because I couldnt really make it subtle.


I mean, how is he even making this argument? He couldn't make it subtle? It's super fucking easy to make at least some kind of breadcrumb. The claim is super convenient. He's been scummy. Besides I'm soon off to bed and don't know who last-minute-switch to anyway.

I've been thinking the same thing about you and sonic. :/

Also, I'm pretty sure we can have two doctors... though it would be pretty silly.

Could there be two doctors in this setup?
This possibility seems to be specifically indicated in the preliminaries to the role list, but since noone else is considering it I'll check.

From the op

This is semi-open setup. That is, the roles possible are known, but not if they exist or if there are multiple. Town wins when all mafia are eliminated; mafia win when they outnumber town or nothing can prevent this. There are 7 townies and 2 mafia.

Alright last post before I head to work.

I suggest to the rest of my townie buddies that you look for someone else today. My time is going to be limited Friday and Saturday due to previous commitments. Tonight I will come back and do some real hard reads on people's filters to try to make more sense of this game.

I think my criteria of town being unsure of itself this game is one to REALLY consider. Mafia has done a good job sowing extra layers of doubt in people's heads about allegiances. This is a vague criteria to look for but something to consider when reading people for tone.

Possible like iamp says, but highly unlikely.

So scum is pretending to be confident in their reads in order to sow confusion? I feel like I've been one of the most confused AND confusing players in this game. The only thing I seem to have been able to establish is my own townieness.

Don't get me wrong, players who seems to deliberately sow confusion is scummy. Sometimes being confused yourself will sow confusion.

Jesus Christ, this post is confusing.
