Unless people think to combine my post with the answered post, but I honestly wouldn't have considered that.

Either way, I claimed solely to help town with information, and now I want town to help me pick the next action.

I think the plan you chose works best for town but announce who you use it on

Could be, yes. But that's tinfoiling, and with 2 claimed protective roles (one of which also knew what I was doing), Haku could've been saved if need be.

Mind you, this is speculation, but I asked for the name, like I said, to confirm to me that Haku was not bullshitting his claim to save his neck.

What IS indicative of characters is what you can upgrade as.

Tana can become a Falco Knight or a Wyvern Knight.
Knoll can become a Shaman or a Summoner, as can Ewan.
Knoll and Ewan are the only 2 characters in FE:SS that can do so.

I wanted Haku to tell me he was Ewan so I could confirm that he wasn't bullshitting his Shaman claim.

Your logic makes no sense to me but I'm letting it go because I'm willing to believe you got blinded by your bloodlust for Haku even though he claimed a powerful role in a very lore-specific way. Daikyi's shot was also stupid but excusable because he's always hungry for Haku's death

I think discussing this won't help anymore. Whether it's a wolf-intentioned bumrush on blue or town bloodlust can't be fully determined here

You mis-understand. I don't get to target anyone barring a couple specific items.
Namely:
The Hider item
The Demoter
Or the Chara-killer (yes, there's another one here)

All of the other items are self-use.

I guess this is as good a time as any to say that I think FG and Jess are almost always aligned.

I could maayybe see Jessie being a wolf and FG being town, but the reverse is almost true based on previous interactions and the timings that I mentioned earlier

The sum of it all is that I didn't believe Haku would lie when presented an opportunity to have his claim believed.
It's not out of the realm of possibility for Haku to go and research the flavour games he's playing (he did it for my TWEWY themed game a while ago), so that was another reason.
But, that's the last I will say on it. Like you said, it's not going to get us anywhere.

Can't be saved from dayshot after it happens

If Haku claimed Knoll, that magically would've made you believe him? Or would you have thought he just kept his lie consistent?

If Haku claimed Knoll, we'd have all known that was bullshit seeing as Manti flipped as Knoll...

An item still not quite ready, which can eliminate a player while the sun is up. GONE
An item which randomises what another player gets.
A fortune telling item.
An item which allows a player to eliminate another player of known character moniker.
And an item which disguises alignment view.

Apart from my Role PM, that's basically the special knowledge I have to this point.

I agree with your strategy. However, it would seem at this point there is an advantage in events for those familiar with game flavour. I wouldn't think this would hold up throughout, but I'm thinking there's a likelihood that players knowing game flavour may have a greater chance of accessing the Shop. What do you think?

So if that is true how comfortable are you with those knowing game flavour?

I'd be inclined to choose one of the last 3 items.

Like, this is what it all comes down to. There was one character Haku could have been if he was telling the truth about being Shaman.
He was who I thought he was.
He told us he was someone completely different.

Myself: Extremely comfortable.
Freezin: Very comfortable
Shado: Very comfortable

I don't think I'd pick the name-killer mainly because I don't think I'd live long enough to use it, and there's not enough info to use it on anyone who I feel is worth taking a shot at.

Fortune item is a possibility, but that just allows me to present info on an upcoming event which won't be until the next day.

The green-seer, imo, is the best option aside from a class-up as it removes a wolf from getting it.
I know at least one person is paranoid of that, though, so a class-up item may be a good idea. Even if I die, it removes that particular item from the shop.

TL;DR, I'm between the green-seer, or the Master Seal (promotes anyone unless they're already promoted or 2 specific characters)

My bad for taking that out on you.

In your opinion, what do you think is a good item for me to take re: town benefit

[Celirra]

If I get promoted I can do a bit more stuff but its risky and may not even be useful or good to use if theres not a confirmed town to use it on

[Celirra]

That said both my paths are lacklustre imo

Only you can promote you, friend.

The benefit is to have a confirmed town who is really a wolf. By being all like "hey look im helping town you control what i do with this" may lock you in as town with people even though it doesn't actually. Playing nice for a phase is something a lurking wolf could easily do. That's kinda where I was going with that.

Either way you are right, and we need to decide what the action is. All I'm saying is that if people are locking in Tforce as town here, it's a mistake. It helps but I don't put it past him.

[Celirra]

I thought you could promote anyone with an item
Either way dont choose that one
