I think all vigilantes should call out their hits. Benefits: - Chance of confirmed innocent vigilante - No overlap of vigilante hits - No wasted detective ability - Medics will always know that if they save someone he is innocent Of course it has been pointed out that even if vigilantes don't call their hits they might be able to prove their innocence with the clues. They might still be able to prove their innocence with clues, if they call out their hit, though. Calling out their hit has the additional benefit that they might hit mafia and be 100% confirmed innocent no strings attached. Preventing overlap of hits isn't as crucial as it would be, if kills weren't refunded, but even when refunded, it's better not to overlap as it might cost you a crucial day/night cycle before you can use the refunded kill. If a vigilante calls out a hit, a detective doesn't need to rolecheck or cluecheck on that person, saving them for better use. Finally, since medics now won't protect vigilante targets, only mafia targets, a medic can always 100% be sure that a person they save is innocent. Not 99% (risky) but 100%. That might be able to create some private circles that are good for the town. Disadvantages None. Things that may seem like disadvantages but aren't: - If the vigilante calls out a hit against an innocent, mafia will know they don't need to hit that person. Presumably, the vigilante would hit a person that is already suspicious, and there is no need for mafia to hit a person that is suspicious. Just use the kill on someone else and let the town lynch one of their own. So mafia was probably not intending to hit that person in the first place. Even if mafia did intend to hit that person, surprisingly enough, the vigilante calling out the hit in public doesn't give mafia an extra kill point. After all, if they use the kill on someone else, full kill power is used, and the vigilante is 100% confirmed innocent. Assuming mafia don't like to give us 100% confirmed innocents, they are handicapped and cannot use full kill power that night. - The vigilante will just be killed First of all, why? The hit will go through regardless of whether the vigilante is killed or not, since he sends it in before calling it out in the thread. After using up his hit, the vigilante is just an ordinary townie. There is absolutely no need for mafia to kill the vigilante. We would LOVE that they kill the vigilante as we would rather lose a townie than a blue. If we confirm the vigilante, they do have to kill him, and again we are happy they are using up KP that can't be used killing a blue. This only works if all vigilantes do it, though. So we do have to get a consensus going here. Ace, did you revise your position on this yet? | ||

I did notice that he said "dried up white flower" was the biggest clue, and that he was going to look into it, and that he posted my profile pic four minutes later. I did not intended to address this, because Rice didn't say anything I can address. Do I think my profile picture represents a "dried up white flower"? With a stretch. I have never seen anyone refer to a dandelion as a "white flower". The flower head is green/yellow, the leaves, when it blooms, are yellow/orange. The white you see are its seeds. However, it has colored slightly brown and seems to be disconnected from the ground, so one might reasonably assume it is dried up. I guess I'm suspicious. What can I say about it? One thing that does strike me as odd is that Rice thinks this is the biggest clue in a day post full of significant clues. I don't see why he should think so. The only explanation I can think of is that Rice had noticed my profile picture before posting, and having something to connect a clue to naturally makes it more significant. If that is the case, however, it's strange that he waited four minutes before posting my profile picture. Maybe I'm overly suspicious, but it's suspicious to me. Possibly he wanted to make his find seem more significant than it really is (it would have seemed less big of a find had he posted them both at the same time). Whether it's deliberately sending town on a red herring or good clue analysis with bad luck, in both cases it's a pretty good find and Rice has my sincere appreciation for that. | ||
