    If nothing else, at the end of this game we can just archive it and refer people back to it whenever we play WH as "here's why outing your role and just doing whatever the fuck you want with it is terrible" 101.

    btw if Slip is real then I'm giving myself props for that read. Proph is a tough, tough read but I had him as gut lean town the entire game so hah suck it.

    inb4 Kai says he checked Proph mafia.

    Prophylaxis was insistent enough that I answer questions but refused to spell out the question that wasn't answered to his satisfaction. Then there was the quotations which included one talking about Snowvon while insisting it was a conversation relevant to dLGN and my positions on him.

    There was also a fudge factor involved in my check in case Cobalt was a witch if I didn't just die in the night so I didn't want to check Newcomb who came at me really hard or Jan who counter claimed me as I thought those would be sort of obvious checks to mess with.

    Aria is new to the game so could she lead the game to victory later on in the game if my check was on her and she came back not in a witches Coven.

    dLGN is a bad check and that also means Citrus is a bad check as it only provides a single source of information. I have already explained why I would never check Kaidash.

    I could go into my reasons for the other people.

    Waco had dropped off so checking him only gets people at the start of the game.

    Plotless has an extra life so checking him requires the Judge to out if he comes back as a witch.

    Enough roles have already outed as far as I am concerned. Also no clue on the alignment of the Judge unless its exactly Prophylaxis which I wouldn't know if I checked Plotless.

    Should I go on ?

    Plotless doesn't have an extra life? And if he is witch with extra life, wouldn't we want to know earlier on?

    I'm new so I can lead the town to victory? What?

    I guess I understand your reasonings for the other people you named.

    Yes, that's why I mentioned DOB as the primary thought and the LC as an afterthought for completeness.

    I appreciate Newcomb with all his "helpful criticism" increasing my "deep love" of being a variation of "cop" even more which clearly will help me play the role better.

    ---------- Post automerged at 09:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:24 PM ----------

    dLGN gave Plotless an extra life on day one based on my understanding of how the role works.

    Dude, you literally outed under light pressure on D1 in a WH setup. You really don't have a lot of room to talk.

    Aria I am saying if I checked you and you come back as town you as a brand new player will have harder time getting people to follow your lead.

    Okay, so we have a good number of people we can treat as town for today.
    dLGN
    Citrus
    Slippery
    Proph

    Cobalt?
    Plotless?

    The first four are town unless you want to start doing suuuuuper sketch -EV WIFOM plays like "witch!Citrus self-shoots to hardclear his partner dLGN," which, like, no.

    Cobalt's EoD when he came back was like 99% town and for him to be mafia that means Plotless AND Snowvon are mafia. That's only a little bit more likely than the above, which is still like <1%.

    Plotless could be trueclaiming as mafia and giving a good result; Snowvon's check means nothing there, and if PT target knows he's peeked it would mean Plotless knows he has to give a good result, or they could have shot Snowvon I suppose.

    ---------- Post automerged at 06:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:39 PM ----------

    Part of me just wants to assume Plotless is real and just chain-lynch through the unconfirmed, including myself.

    Can someone run the math, like is that literally auto?

    Ya, that's why I put the none completely townconfirmed in question marks.

    For today, I wanna lynch between KaiDASH, Waco, Loch, and Snowvon.

    Jan, Newcomb, and Plotless only if something significant happens.

    I will explain it once very clearly so it can be dropped or you can bring it back up which is on you at that point. Someone comes in all energetic full of fire in a slower thread with less than 20 hours before the end of the day.

    That person gets two people to already align with them in voting by declaring that guy is always a witch in this game. Another person who is already uncertain is mentioning voting as well. One person is hard defending the other person being considered. That person hard claims Nurse. So now that is 6 people who are willing to vote at that point on me. I wonder what happens at End of Day if I wait until the last minute to claim.
    Newcomb If you wish to continue this conversation I will not engage with you. You can kvetch about how I wasn't playing super towny which a valid complaint. You can kvetch about how that check isn't what you would do or not do which is fine. I haven't responded to any of your other kvetching because I probably shouldn't have mentioned mets who was also absolutely certain about his read which is also valid complaint I guess.

    I am done with this and moving on to kill witches now who I am still not certain on. The combination of the tutorial remark and several other things are why I wrote this.

    It probably wins if Plotless is actually town. The amount of viable nk's for witches is small enough that a protect is reasonably likely, so that's a thing too.

    On the other hand, claiming GD then being afk is not a good look.

    Why can't we just chain-lynch through unconfirmed and add Plotless to the list?

    Because if we want to lynch plotless, we need the judge to do so, so the longer we wait, the more likely it is that the judge will be dead.
