Re: Turbo XIV: Fourteen - Game Thread

Info for the masses: iirc optimal play has seer claiming tomorrow. Either they have a wolf and green check or 3 confirmed towns going into d1 which is powerful in a setup with so little people. Which is why it's pivotal for wolves to hit seer tonight.

And the power of leaving green checks should be obvious: dissemination of information with no real drawbacks. Because wolves win rate plummets the longer the seer is left alive, they are almost mechanically forced into seer hunting, which soft clears the green check of the night kill. Why? This calls for a bit of critical thinking.

If you were a wolf, your goal with the night kill would be to hit the seer. You make the kill on x player because you think they are the seer. Someone who leaves a green check on a wolf cannot be the seer, and therefore would not be the night kill. So by association, the night kill would be on a player who in the eyes of the wolves is the seer, and therefore that players green check would always be on a human.

Is this always the case? Of course not. But killing a human who has a green check on a wolf to make a wild look better is objectively worse for the wolves than seer hunting, and almost always not worth it in the long run.

Now you know the power of hypocop, the meta behind it, and how much you not buying in or at least staying silent until you understood the logistics behind it has potentially messed it up.

Btw normally I wouldn't explain this and I'm not doing this for cred, I legitimately want you to understand the situation (as well as anyone else not aware of it)

this seems an awful lot like leap of faith more than anything

Re: Turbo XIV: Fourteen - Game Thread

All NSM games (almost all, I guess) start on a night phase

no idea what nsm is

no, I also said I was town

the freezin vote is for a few reasons
1) I never read him correctly when he's scum so why bother trying
2) he's probably scum this time
3) he wanted to lynch me
4) indheart sent me a message over discord telling me the game had started
5) I'm ticked off because I have no idea how to play wolf and I'm never gonna roll wolf so I'm never gonna learn
6) lynch freezin so I can show yall I'm right
7) lynch me next because why not
8) profit
9) ???

i don't remember freezin saying he wanted to lynch you but lk

Re: Turbo XIV: Fourteen - Game Thread

@flashflash what do you feel about the Freezin strat that was largely outlined here:

Maybe, my inner utilitarian is amazed at the economy of the kill. Unlikely to contribute, broke seer cover, and he could just be lying. There's a lot of upside there when my goal is to make it to d1 with seer alive.

in which it's better to lynch for non-seer than it is to lynch for wolves?
