well if you kill them, you will lose cuz town will elim you.

if you state you won't kill them

and they don't kill you

then the next day every1 wakes up and we get a happily ever after draw.

its never in the best interest of town to elim either scum since the other scum would win

its never in the interest of either scum to shoot because then they would get elimmed the next day

in a 2v1v1 if both scum are outed and one scum shoots town they can joint elim town for the victory the next day.
If both scum shoot town same result.
If one scum shoots scum town wins.
If both scum shoot each other town wins.
If one scum shoots town and one scum shoots scum the scum who shot scum wins.

Claiming you're going to holster theoretically puts your opponent in "Shoot town or lose" with a slight possibility of No kill letting them have the exact same decision to make again (depending on the mod's HEA choices) which means they should never shoot you. If they actually holster and you shoot them you lose, but they should never shoot you because that is a loss 100% of the time.

I think the only nash equilibrium for a 2 - 1 - 1 with outted alignments is no elim -> both scum holster -> HEA

I would have been tempted to call HEA after only 2 cycles of nothing because of the @#%!ing Twilight Extender

Oh, I’m not saying I would actually have holstered. I play to win and consider a draw a loss. I’m saying that arguing that you would holster gives you a better leg to stand on if you’re already intending to betray the other scum.
