Bulletproof doesn't say it protects you from being shot, it says it protects you from being killed.

Weren't you a normal game reviewer at one point? Are we supposed to buy that you don't know how bulletproof works?
Normal games also do not differentiate between Mafia as a faction and Werewolf as a faction--masons are absolutely conftown and cannot contain scum, there's no such thing as Monks, cops investigate for town/scum so there's no such thing as a cop that gets guilties on mafia but not on werewolf or a Seer who gets guilties on werewolves yet not mafia.

And yet this game explicitly features those mechanics.

So given that this game features mechanics that actually differentiate mafia from werewolves, and given that mafia use guns and werewolves traditionally use claws/fangs, it actually IS important to ask the mod the distinction between Bulletproof = immune to only guns and Bulletproof = immune to kills during the night.

This game is, explicitly, Not Quite Normal--a bulletproof in a Normal would indeed be immune to all forms of kills. A bulletproof in
this
game cannot just be
assumed
to be immune to all form of kills and thus, we need to ask the mod because it is of vital importance that we know.

Is an important point of clarity because of the whole mafia-werewolf separation and what it'd mean for a 1x BP to be killed by the wolves overnight. (If werewolves' factional kill counts for the bulletproof, that means that was a strongman. If werewolves' factional kill doesn't count for the bulletproof, then that has entirely different implications.)

Werewolves know who the town are. They shared a masonry with them.
Ah yes, werewolves sharing a masonry with two town players magically means they know who all the slots in the games' alignments are. :roll:

No, the werewolves would not magically know all the town--they'd know who the masons were, but nobody else. They're just as vulnerable to having wrong reads as anyone else.

And this is why you ask, folks.

The mod's answer to this question was that bulletproof does
not
apply to the werewolves' factionall kill.


Meaning werewolves do not need a strongman to have killed Ydrasse last night.

Don't believe me? Ask the exact question I did to Cephrir via PM and he will give you the same answer he gave me. (This is why requiring questions to be asked via PM is a fucking stupid rule btw.)

If Werewolves wanted to shoot town, and didn't want to double up on Morph, they had a target.

And why would the werewolves want to kill the third mason? The mod explicitly said that the game could have two werewolves in a masonry, so having one werewolf in the masonry flip does not clear the other two of being werewolves.

You've been a gut scumread since D1 + your attitude towards me D2 + your trying to prevent me from digging into the logic that I am approaching for no good reason.

Don't really need more than that.

I don't see the need to share it publicly yet. Especially not with the number of scum alive that are alive. When there's less scum alive, sure.

Unless morphs read was wrong on whoever #3 is.

Regardless, pretty random kill. Potentially aimed to make pooky or unwind look dodgy?
