Am I understanding this logic right?

Theres still room for discussion (try to bait werewolves into making a less-ambiguous mistake to act upon), but largely the Seer is the most powerful tool available to the town in terms of gaining firm actionable intel and the most reliable strategy will be one that gives the Seer as many opportunities to do their magic as possible.

VOTECOUNT:

FreezinIce- 2 (Voted by NoobiesAreTheBest Post #133 and Arp! Post #138)
NoobiesAreTheBest- 1 (Voted by Charu Post #128)

Voting Rules:
The day will end at midnight server time - about two hours remain. Votes made at 00:00 will be counted, but ensure that you have stopped posting before 00:01.
With 9 alive, instalynch would occur at 5 votes.
KITB: On
No Lynch: Off

Goes without saying I guess but we ain't voting Lights here, maybe ever

One hell of a push for a new wolf, unless they're being couched hard in wolfchat but I honestly don't believe that happens near as much has people claim

But what about when a wolf pretends to be the seer? The rest of us will have no way to know who is telling the truth

[MixMasterLar]

Oh No Lynch is OFF
so I mean that settles it I guess

This is true! I don't have to worry about that fear, but the rest of you do.

[mellon_collie]

uh oh lol

[MixMasterLar]

Coached*
Couched is like something totally else whoops

Anyway I don't really wanna vote Freezin because I feel he's the one one inactive who has always turned out to be town when he dips d0, but there's more compelling reasons not to vote the other inactives :thinking:

[MixMasterLar]

Oh goddammit really

Oh, sure!
If ya insta someone, the host requirement will still go into effect! The players would still get replaced and or mod killed!

Maybe that phrasing was a bit obtuse

I'm not worried because a werewolf pretending to be seer works exactly one time. that will, at most, cost us one day night cycle. The rest of you can metagame the double reverse uno werewolf seer strat, but im remaining confident in my assertion that its the winning strategy

Hmm...

Hmm...

Hmm...


So do you also just let the PR's just... play while everyone who isn't just mucks around?

I'm bad at reading OP's

Olay, you're right. The OP states this

the strategy im using here works pretty well there. call me a stick in the mud if you want, but im here to win c:

[Charu]

Here's the thing

I've seen how Town of Salem plays.

We're not bite-sized phases.

We don't have a bunch of PR's.

We're 48 hours of active posting with ONE PR in this game.

Your strategy may work there BECAUSE of how quick the phases are. It's because there's just NOT one PR.

That doesn't translate well here.

We'll just see, won't we? Your (and others') proposed strategy hasnt exactly instilled confidence in me
