Same applies for jailkeeper and wizard. Except they can still protect them from being killed.

If both jailkeeper/wizard attempt to jail each other, their action will fail. Same applies for the roleblockers. However, if it's a roleblocker vs jailkeeper/wizard, the roleblocker will block jailkeeper's/wizard's action.

Hi.

VOTE: Dunnstral

[Gamma Emerald]

VOTE: Mimikyu

[BlackStar]

Umlaut was scum in my first game here, so he's probably scum again now

VOTE: umlaut

[Skold]

Impeccable reasoning Blackstar. I'll sheep that hard.
VOTE: umlaut
Heads up I don't scumhunt because it's stupid and leads to basically random lynches. I'm warming to town read into PoE but that could be a symptom of positivity bias that suggests because when I town read someone I am statistically likely to be right, I end up believing my townreads are accurate.

[Dunnstral]

Where's Zach

It's fine. Townhunting's an equally valid method as scumhunting and may bring even more spectacular results if done right. Especially in this setup. Don't feel forced to act according to meta if your method works for you.

[Zachstralkita]

VOTE: MeowMix

The_Jester's also probable scum. I'll see how this one plays out.

[Ümläüt]

VOTE: BTD6_maker

History suggests I'll be trying to get him lynched at some point today so I might as well get it over with.

[Ümläüt]

It's fine. Townhunting's an equally valid method as scumhunting and may bring even more spectacular results if done right. Especially in this setup. Don't feel forced to act according to meta if your method works for you.

Why especially in this setup?

[Skold]

Why especially in this setup?

Double scum team so it's probably more effective to build a town block then extrapolate from there than try and hunt down both scumteams with no townreads.

[Skold]

VOTE: MeowMix

The_Jester's also probable scum. I'll see how this one plays out.

One of these - you believe this and you're drawing conclusions on what is effectively nothing, you don't and this is a reaction test which is also silly or you're scum. None of these are good things, stop this.

[Skold]

Seeks to pocket me by supporting the part about town reads while ignoring the part that disputes the validity of town reads.
Or is just town trying to be supportive.
See how difficult it is being reasonable people? Eh fuck it I'll vote you anyway just to be safe.
VOTE: The_Jester

[The_Jester]

Well that was weird.

[Zachstralkita]

Save your superior analytical skills. Really.

K. But only cause you have a cute anime gif.

VOTE: The_Jester

I took your #8 as a sign of being insecure (maybe somebody gave you shit for the way you play before) so I just wanted to back you up to make you focus on the game instead of wondering whether you're playing "the right way". I don't see how I could "pocket" you by that. Are you prone to buddying?
Also, what did you mean by voting me "just to be safe"?

[Skold]

I'm fucking around mostly and demonstrating that while I could read into stupid shit stupidly I have good reasons not to a little. Mostly just fucking around because it appears to be just us 3 for now.

[Dunnstral]

Don't forget about me pal

VOTE: Zachstralkita

Don't let this guy get away with it let me tell you

[Aubrey]

Wow, a lot more activity has occurred right out the gate than I was expecting in comparison to my previous game. Any who, usually the day starts out with RVP and just getting feelers for people in general, so It'll be more interesting once everyone has confirmed.

So basically your goal is to just locate townies, and by process of elimination locate the mafia/werewolves? Why not just do both (Scumhunt and Friendhunt)? In a game like this, one needs to do both in order to be successful to me. At least that how I go about it. To just locate townies (without considering the scum motivations) seems like an excuse in order to avoid certain conversations.
