I'll add in that there's a possibility of someone defecting from the plan early (maybe #1-3) for traitor cause not only would they help mafia by not blocking a critical role but also possibly messing up the plan entirely. Toad's plan of having two people being assigned a role would solve this problem as well cause then it would check the role of the person above. 1. CPR 2. Janitor 3. CPR 4. Janitor | ||

Also, with your plan, we still cannot guarantee that the first person has CPR, which means that mafia can easily transfer it down to a scumbuddy without us knowing, which is extremely dangerous. I would rather have vanilla townies than risk having mafia have 2 KP. | ||

I still don't see how it prevents mafia from blatantly using CPR - how will we be able to attribute night kills to specific roles? Well, first, the mafia has to be the first CPR from them to use the role. We won't be able to attribute night kills to roles anyways (unless tracker). The difference is that we know where the CPR is, and we will know when someone is abusing the power when there is consistently 2 Mafia KP. | ||

I would also say no mass roleclaim cause that gives mafia way too much information. | ||

@PaqMan No town would have a reason to not follow the plan given. | ||

I do agree with almost all of the roles that you posted, but I don't understand your reasoning for angry vig. Angry vig only gets one shot. Also, still confused as to our plan against copycat. If copycat gets the role of the first power role that dies, how do we guarantee that that role isn't good for mafia (ie, first lynch is someone with a KP or RB, or first lynch is vanilla and mafia stacks on CPR doc)? | ||

@Qatol I think all of the roles for town are viable except for framer, traitor, and politician. It really depends on what playstyle you want to play. That's why I spent so long deciding what role to choose. I think mafia and sk have a much more limited set of viable roles they can choose. I really hope people are following the plan that was agreed upon. I was most scared about whoever was #3, but it seems like marvellosity is going to follow it, which is great. I'll be back later. | ||

We now know what role Mattchew is. I think a real easy way to clear him is if we have a tracker. If we do, we know that he does not have a role ability, so if mafia does shoot, Mattchew would go to the target (I'm pretty sure that's how the mechanics work anyways). And because of this possibility, it makes it unlikely that Mattchew is scum (unless, of course they overlooked it). Anyways, it would be best if we can do this. Thoughts? | ||

Also, I think it is in the town's best interest for whoever got Janitor to say so. This way, we know who the Janitor is, and if there ever becomes a night where bodies are cleaned up, we would instantly know where the mafia is. On the other hand, that person is also almost confirmed town, or at least has to act in the town's best interest anyways. Since copycat is already used, there should be no fear. | ||

Qatol: If you thought that Janitor is a really strong role for mafia that it warranted a denial, why is lynching Paqman more ideal? Paqman: Who do you think is Janitor? Sentinel: Why are you not voting risk.nuke? | ||

By the time we figure out who Janitor is, it would be too late, no? (As in Janitor would have already used his role). Additionally, don't you think we would get some information from the way people voted between the 3 (especially since you (Toad) claim that we would find them eventually)? | ||

@Toad Why did you want to assign Janitor pre-draft then?

So no, it's not too late at all, it's too early to lynch into those 3 on d1 for the very reason you said we should lynch them. We WANT to get more information on them and we WANT to see who's using powers n1 out of those 3. I also don't get how we get confirmed mafia. Janitor PMs during the night when he wants to clean up bodies. I don't understand why we want the Janitor to use his power at all. | ||

Anyways, Qatol brought out a possibility that I did not think of which counters your first point: Sentinel could be scum but gave Janitor to some other mafia member lower in the draft. Plus, I don't see how it confirms Sentinel to be town at all because it could be him having the Janitor role and using it, but pretending that he does not have it. Your second point will draw out more blues (investigative roles would need to claim, marvellosity and risk would need to claim their presumed roles). ##Vote: [UoN]Sentinel Along with the logical arguments provided (and technically, strict probability), Sentinel is higher on my scum list. He was compliant with the plan after the draft phase came out (but did not imput before). Although he asked risk to get Janitor, it was already clear that risk wasn't going to get it and doesn't say anything further, which means he was comfortable picking Janitor. This comes into play when you read + Show Spoiler + On May 15 2012 05:07 [UoN]Sentinel wrote: Agreed. Personally I'm really comfortable playing as Doc, and if I'm not one of the top five (haven't played a power role in forever so I'm interested in those as well) I might snatch that or jailkeeper up.  " rubbed me the wrong way, but that's minor I guess. He also only votes risk after pressure, and doesn't really explain why he does in fact choose to vote instead of FOSing. | ||
