In this situation I wouldn't shoot art I think.

But it's so wifom,because he was the hardest read town person in the game everyone else people hesitate on.

What do you think is more likely scum play:

1. Someone who Artanis suspected was scum is getting rid of Artanis?
2. Someone who Artanis read as town getting rid of Artanis because suspicion on them would be unlikely?

Arantis is an interesting kill but I doubt it is based on suspicion. He was nk'd more so because he's prolly never getting lynched this game.

Damdred what do you think about this hypothesis?

Because of math.

Explain why this is true pls. x;

If Jean is scum, Jean wins with any 2 other people left in the game. All he has to do is vote as soon as Day post comes up (literally just have it hanging in the window and post ASAP). The other two people, as per the rules, would never be able to fight his 2 votes. Town loses.

Even if GB is still in the game and he pardons either himself or whoever the other townie is, Jean will just NK the other townie, GG.

Without Jean being in the final 3, there is at least one more Day for the three remaining players to figure out who is scum. With Jean being in the final 3, even if he is not scum, we place all of our faith in his decision. I trust two heads over one, in the sense that the two remaining townies would know that each of their votes is as crucial to winning the game as the other's.

However, this does not mean I support lynching Jean now or at any point prior to this situation. When there are only


Scratch that. We have 8 players remaining at the start of this Day cycle. This means that (if we assume there is no pardon):

After D3 = 7 people
After N3 = 6 people
After D4 = 5 people
'' N4 = 4 people
'' D5 = 3 people
'' N5 = 2 people, gg

This means there will never be a Day cycle with 3 people, or an odd number of people (again, if we assume no pardon).

If we get to this point of 4 people (D5) and we lynch Jean and he flips town, then town loses. At D5 people can still lynch Jean with a 3-2 majority, but this is also risky because if Jean is town and votes a mislynch, scum can shenanie at the last moment and swing the 3-2 in the other direction and win that way.

Thus, if we don't lynch scum in D3 or D4, town will likely lose. Therefore, Jean must die in D4 in order to give town another day to vote.

However, I just realized I hadn't considered various PR. Cop, Vet, and Roleblocker all throw various wrenches into the mix.

Will have to analyze this when I have more time tomorrow.

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.

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.

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?

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?

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'd love if you did it. I'm really interested.

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.

Depends.


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?

As of today I'm basically sure Damdred is my #1 townread.


GB does not need to claim BG per say. The better play is to claim one (or two) people who are definitely not the bodyguard.

That way if GB die we have Jean and that person as confirmed town.

I wanted to say this later but w/e.

This is really good. I like this.
