Lynch protection is unusual and probably not in this game.
STL is giving up his spot and WZ is being subbed in.
I believe she's getting subbed in like how sov should be taking over for kaydubs. Or so I gathered.
Yeah, like I said yesterday, he is waiting for the real seer to seer him and out that he is fos and thus put a target on their back, or to throw a legit person under the bus, or is actually the affiliation seer.
I dunno how basic an assassin is either, and no, seer is the most important role, followed by protector
He muttered about it many pages ago. Research, immuno, gots busy life...sub sub blah blah he's leaving to do research or some stuff.
Not basic enough. Idk how bare bones we are but I feel.....protector-seer (typical: role name), then tier 2: tracker, +/- affiliation seer, item maker, assassin
Nope, I went back to sleepAw, it's just me and rojo.
We can't all be as epic as I.
It was actually hard. My posts are usually more fluff, and I was busy, hence my random ass times of posting
The wolves probable want to find and kill the protector before going after STL.
I've played games where protecting was for a full night/day cycle and other times people had lynch protection roles, but I don't feel that would be in a basics game. Some roles also have lynch avoidance, again not something I suspect we'll see here.
I think #2 would be super risky as I suspect seer is one of the roles out there and the real seer would hopefully be able to find a way to push for his lynch.
Mods generally have an order that actions take place in, so if protection comes before conversion than maybe it would protect from conversion, if it comes after, then it definitely would not. I'm leaning towards there being no converts in this game though. That's just my opinion though.
Why would voting early reduce discussion? If anything, voting early gives the accused more time to defend themselves from getting lynched (should they feel the need to), so wouldn't it increase discussion? The only bad part I can see is if someone puts an early vote and refuses to change out of it (just because they feel the need to have a vote down), but that doesn't sound like what you were referring to.
Yes, the wolves know who the villagers are. But outing a "confirmed" (I use this term lightly since we don't know if STL is truly a villager seer) villager puts a target on their back and we're back to square one after they're wolf-killed. Wolves want to avoid getting lynched and lynch villagers instead. If we know one person is not a wolf, then that is one less person that might be lynched and it becomes slightly more likely a wolf will be lynched instead. May not make a huge difference now but it gets more and more significant as the numbers dwindle down. Also makes the person a good candidate for conversion since we trust them.
Conversion or not I still think it's best he keeps it to himself until the protector is gone.
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by that. If STL is a wolf, he knows who's villager and who's not. He wouldn't need to pick dead people as evidence.
Ok, thanks for explaining this. It didn't occur to me that cleared villagers would become targets for wolves. I guess I was thinking that all villagers are targets for wolves. Just because someone is cleared, I didn't think it would make them a kill target because leaving them alive can turn them into villager lynch targets as conversion suspects.
I think everyone is floating the idea that STL is a wolf claiming seer because he did that once in a speed game. Risky, but if you can do it it will pay off. If STL is a wolf, an actual seer may be reticent to claim that on thread out of fear of being killed the next night by wolves or having a target painted on their back for the rest of the game (which is what STL has basically done to himself here).
The question is always how reliable the information is. I'm always a bit reticent to trust seering info because it always has a chance of being unreliable, causing people to permanently trust someone who could later be converted, or be outright false if the seer themselves is converted but they are still operating under their seer claim.
Yes, but the strategic wolf will be hunting for villagers with role abilities, as they are generally more dangerous to wolves and more likely to figure out who wolves are.
