I'm a guy who loves some thought experiments, but when I do them I make it clearer that I'm pondering abstractly something I don't necessarily believe or advocate. It felt to me at least, like you were actually suggesting we consider keeping him alive, and so yeah, I get why roundbox would turn his read based on that.

We had to have a conversation about being careful not to waste the day phase by insta'ing him, so if you were just suggesting saving him to see how people felt, that seems like a bit of a 'read the room' moment.

There's no reason to keep an anti-town KP alive and it's guaranteed that we don't mislynch a townie if we lynch him. It's just too good to not do it.

We should be talking about how to handle the event tbh.
I feel like in general, my inclination as town is to stay the ever-loving crap away from anything that inserts randomness into the game. There's already enough randomness to make me uneasy. We've got one confirmed 3p and one claimed 3p, and the claimed 3p said he didn't have a daychat meaning they weren't a 'team' and so I worry that anybody who strongly advocates for playing games where maybe people randomly die are people who only need 1 person to live to win the game.

What are odds, this game, with a confirmed wolf team (dragonmega flip), that wolves don't submit a kill.

There's a reason why Antori doesn't go through with the idea I had.

Town should re-read this entire day phase under assumption that Antori is the wolf faction carrying out the wolf kill.
This is interesting if true, because when we lynch Antori, if he's a wolf, that means the wolf team doesn't have anybody who can conceal their kills or presumably mellon's camera wouldn't have worked.

This is interesting if false, because when we lynch Antori, if he's NOT a wolf, that means the town/3p has somebody who can block kills besides Antori (Since he used kill rather than roleblock) or somehow all the wolves aren't playing.

We'll find out shortly. More important is what we think it means if he is or is not the wolf. For reasons explained above, if he -is- a wolf, I turn to funnygurl next. if he's -not- a wolf, I'm....less sure. Going to post a thing after this about postcounts that hopefully can drive some progress on that front.

I'm saying to re-read this phase from the point of view that Antori isn't a third party, and is just the vanilla wolf kill. Everyone defending Antori or trying to shoot at angles at viability for Antori look really bad.
You're entering into the 'yeah we get it' phase. I say as I keep quoting these to respond to them :P

As I mentioned above, if Antori's a wolf I'm right here with you, but if Antori's not, what makes you still dead dead set against FG?

My read was that he has to do a kill or roleblock a kill, and that he can fail three times before he dies. We have no proof that roleblock is his second thing he can do. I could imagine a way this is a wolf role, but I have no idea if what I'm thinking of is common or feasible. I agree with you that I think gs is probably town, but I don't know if I agree that thinking Antori might be a wolf is obviously bad town play.

Anything I can comment on, or talk about to help you get a better read on me?

staaahhhppp. It's not just a big gamble on your side since I think almost everybody is in agreement that you're town. Engaging with randomness that can kill people as town feels like really bad town play to me and makes me suspect you again.

Nobody should be thinking of how Antori stays alive, not even Antori. If he's a wolf, I don't want to know the opinion he has on reads on his way to death. If he's 3p I don't know if I can -trust- any of his reads on his way to death, and if he's town I -definitely- can't trust any of his reads because boy oh boy picking mellon_collie to kill when you didn't necessarily even need to kill anybody is not the kind of town play that inspires confidence.

How would this work? See previous post for not really getting the whole 'lost wolf' thing. If there's a wolf team and a lost wolf, can they both submit a kill? Does whoever does it first get the kill and the other one's fizzles? The only game I was ever a wolf I was a master wolf, and we all just agreed on a kill and told the host.

I don't like the idea that he thinks a good choice to kill as not-a-wolf is somebody he thinks is contributing and that he doesn't think is a wolf. If he actually tried to kill DBP I would have hoped it was either for inactivity (thus why he subbed out) or because he thought he was a wolf (thus shouldn't have changed his attack from me just because I'm 'new') but "I decided to kill a good player, and when the good player got subbed out, I picked another good player" followed by "I didn't bother thinking ahead" when he has a "three strikes you die" mechanic? Even if he's town, he's not playing it very well.
