Also, since the rules don't say anything about it, what happens in case of a tie on the vote?
Edit: Nevermind, I didn't see the rules got updated

Hey, you're writing in alexandrines! Though the rhymes could use some work.

The thief gets to rearrange the food however he wants, so premium food will always go to the thief until he is ded.

A few turns of this would essentially out him to the Peasant.

1. What I meant is that if the Peasant survives to the endgame, he can guess easily a few roles and potentially win the game because of it; if the Thief goes willy-nilly with the switches, it might cost him the game because of that. WIFOMing by also switching the plates of another player along with him for the whole game is not gonna work that easily either since it stops working once that other player dies.
2. If the Thief switches plates around like that, buying Premium food makes it so that if the Poisoner wants you dead, he'll have to aim for the Thief's plate instead of just going for yours, and the Poisoner may not know the Thief's identity.

In short, the Thief doesn't make Premium food completely useless. Instead, he just turns Dinner Phase into a big ball of wibbly-wobbly foody-woody stuff.

VOTE: Giraffe
Because tactics.

Giraffe, I give you 24 hours to move your vote away from me. If you don't, I'll reveal your role in-thread.

They may not PM during the voting phase.

~You all know who you are~

Oops, I completely forgot about that one!
I sent this to the Giraffe, and I'm OK about revealing it because the trick he tried to pull just feels wrong, and because I don't really have much of a choice.

(Sent from my phone, it was pretty frustrating to type with the French spell-checker)
Even though I know him removing his public vote won't save me, I'll still change my vote because the counter-wagon is the only way for me to save my skin.
VOTE: Wolf
Also, what's everyone's motivation to join my wagon like that? You do know scummy play isn't a thing here, right?

Aaaand how does that make it advantageous for you to vote me? I think most people who voted me could get more from voting someone else.

So, all of my reads were based on a round 2 duel that I thought the Blacksmith had no point faking. Good to know.
My main gripe with the game is how some roles are (from what I understand) by far harder to play well than others: for instance, the Monk must be extremely tough not to give away, and the result-switching roles involve some non-straightforward decisions that could very well have no influence on the game; on the other hand, some roles such as the Peasant, the Soldier or the Magician seem to be much easier. I'm sure I would have had a lot of fun with this game had I lived longer!

Now that I think of it, how did the Giraffe get wounded in a dance for the final challenge flavor?

Felissan · Post Post #395 (isolation #16) » Fri Dec 11, 2015 6:40 am

The one play I definitely regret not doing was to promise I would guess the Thief if I survived the Round 2 vote, because I already knew him. In fact, my fake info on the Giraffe was kinda crumbing it, and the Wolf picked it up!
Also, the rules section needs to be a bit more accurate about the rules for guessing, I originally thought one could guess AtSoTL as many times as they wanted to in a Dinner phase.
