your targets would be appreciated libk, especially if you targeted minish N1 or numbers N3.

Do you guys think there would be a cop and a jailer in this game?

Scum slip scum slip

 

[Princess Abigail]

Another question, did you not think it would be worth acting N2 considering it could have confirmed you as town?

Why?

I would prevent town from using an ability that could benefit town. It only serves to hurt town. It also serves to hurt me. I only have 3 shots wasting one on a night where it neither protects town nor blocks scum is actively anti town

 

[Ragnarokio]

confirming yourself is a good thing
there are downsides too.

Did you think the downsides outweighed the benefits?

 

[Princess Abigail]

It was always optimal for me to 3 shot than claim

 

[Princess Abigail]

I see no alternative where that was not the optimal play

 

[Ragnarokio]

confirming players is very useful.

stopping the NK is similarly useful, but you only have around a 1/6 chance of stopping the kill so a jailor shot is worth around 1/6 of confirming a player on average. In a complex game like this seems to be it also comes with around a 1/3 chance of stopping mafia utility and around a 2/3 chance of stopping town utility, which is probably anti-town overall, and so its probably less than 1/6 as useful as clearing a player is.

You had an opportunity to clear a player in exchange for wasting one of your jailor shots. Thats clearly in your interest. The downside, that you might also block a town player, is mitigated because you could just target mikey, who claimed to have a passive role (miller).

I didn't target either this game. I missed night 1 due to inactivity, missed night 2 because I thought it was day. I targeted Exlight last night.

The reason I asked, and I hinted at it before in the thread, I'm also a JOAT and have 2 two shot abilities. One of which is Doctor. I did not doc Ex last night

This doesn't make any sense to me.

 

[Libk]

I have

I have Reason to believe not a traditional JOAT but to what extent I'm unsure.

As far as cult mechanics in Deku games, the only game I made with with him that had a cult(that I recall) was MtG and that was a large game. Idk if he would do a cult vs town setup, and Ex believes it isn't possible anyway

Here's the post in which I express I don't believe there is a traditional JOAT in this game, was my breadcrumb that I was also a non traditional JOAT

 

[Princess Abigail]

Multitabbing is hard...

Intresting... though I have a weird tinfoil theory on a Wolf JOAT and town JOAT

 

[Princess Abigail]

In fact...I wonder if all the wolf roles align with town roles for claim

We have 2 RBs

We have 2 JOATs

 

[Ragnarokio]

This doesn't make any sense to me.

Do you disagree that giving up one of your shots to confirm yourself as town would be worth it?

Do you disagree that targeting mikey wouldn't have resulted in a town ability being blocked?
