The reasons as to why pardon will be used are not mathematically relevant, it's the fact that to prepare for all possible scenarios one needs to examine both whether it does or does not happen, whether Jean is scum or not scum.

As you said, Jean cannot be in the final 3. My argument is that he cannot be in the final 4, either.

This is a dumb discussion and you should reconsider if you actually think this.

Essentially you're telling the scum "hey, if you get a mislynch today, you'll get a free extra one tomorrow!"

We're not going to default lynch, we're going to keep lynching the most scummy people until the game ends.


True, especially the last bit. However, being short-sighted has already cost us. I don't think it's bad practice to map all the possible roads this game can take.


When did being short-sighted cost us?

Losing Chezinu because of what was effectively a policy lynch.

See I disagree. I don't think it was a policy lynch. At the time I had more reason to believe he's scum than anyone else in the game.

On the other hand, as admitted back on day 1, I have a particular weak spot in reading trolls, so perhaps people who know how to understand and figure out trolls considered it a policy lynch.

Where do you stand today?

Bah, scum wouldn't even need to shenanie in D5, they would just have to vote for Jean just like the other two players remaining and that'd be a wrap if Jean was town.

Yea, damn, I didn't put enough time into the above post. I thought it would be pretty simple to math it out but it's mad complicated. Even if we forget PRs for a moment, there are the following scenarios:

1. Jean is scum, and pardon has been used.
2. Jean is scum, and pardon has not been used.
3. Jean is not scum, and pardon has been used.
4. Jean is not scum, and pardon has not been used.

Each requires their own mathematical breakdown.

Agh.

Mafia can also hold their shot.

To what benefit? Can you elaborate?

The only thing I can think of is to potentially force a vet to claim because he will think he has been shot?

Prevents a kill, same as a pardon. Not to any benefit but since i didn't understand the logic i just pointed it out

Jean should be looked at tomorrow. I can elaborate on this but I probably won't today.


You should probably do it today. I'm flipping my read on him.

I don't want to lynch people inside my wagon day1 and I don't want to lynch Damdred today because I respect the read Artanis brought. The pool is very narrowed.
I'm adorable.

If you believe your bodyguard is town then Jean living to tomorrow is irrelevant.

It's unlikely in this setup for us to have a medic/RB/jailer or vet of some kind I think.

Where do you stand today?

Damdred has been playing pretty well ever since I raised the case against him. It's causing me to doubt my initial conviction. As I haven't had any detailed cases built for anyone else, I will have to do some filter digging when I get the chance, but I am moving today so I don't think I'll have that time for quite a while.

I will. As I said though, I'm moving today so I might only be able to start in 12 hours. To-do list: TT, Damdred re-hash, JVJ.

Nah super unlikely

Basically if you give bodyguard to a town and both mayor and pardoner are town already mafia is forced to shoot into like 7 people n1. Throw in a medic save and mafia is highly behind already.

It just isn't balanced IMO, I mean you do have idiot medic moves but n1 qt should of been saved if we have a medic or jk.

Also GB I think you should claim who the bg is like 5 seconds before eon if we don't hit mafia today, agree or disagree?

Mafia can contest all three roles. If they fail to get mayor pardoner and bg they should be behind
