And this goes straight to my egosearch.
The Professor looks pretty interesting!

Yes, I think the Monk was easily the worst role in the game before, since he would become pretty obvious after a few turns (I was pretty sure the Mouse was him on turn 2, though it could have been the Cat), and having to get Guess Immunity each turn is pretty costly.

By the way, the odds for the Sheep to be the Poisoner are pretty big, since the opposite would require some secret switch shenanigans. Who's willing to use a guess on him?

Felissan · Post Post #178 (isolation #9) » Sun Dec 20, 2015 11:20 am

Vote whoever may be harder for you to deal with later on. That's my approach, at least.

Felissan · Post Post #180 (isolation #10) » Sun Dec 20, 2015 12:01 pm

The only mafia part of the vote is that we want to get rid of the Poisoner, Thief, Man-At-Arms and a few others ASAP.
Aside from that, it's all about setting up the endgame in your own benefit.

Well, it's not like I prefer the Fox dying over the Chipmunk, so I'll make this quicker.

Also, just a quick comment about this turn's guesses: I personnally think guessing the Soldier is a terrible idea if the MAA is still alive, since he was one of the main things holding them back from being extremely dangerous.

Felissan · Post Post #263 (isolation #18) » Wed Dec 23, 2015 4:32 am

It's alright, everyone makes dumb mistakes. Just look at me saying the Sheep was the Poisoner when turn 1 guesses already confirmed the opposite.

Merry X-mas everyone! I've got a gift for you: if I don't get voted at all this phase, I'll get rid of the Man-At-Arms with a guess. Of course, if they vote me, I'll just reveal them immediately.
Also, regardless of who it is, it's either impossible or a really, really bad idea to shoot me.

Felissan · Post Post #285 (isolation #21) » Sat Dec 26, 2015 4:27 am

Well. So much for the Christmas gift... unless you remove this vote by the end of the phase. No, the Mouse is not the MAA.
The MAA's death is an incentive for you all to spare me this turn, so I won't just give him away like that. Last time, I was threatening a specific player, so it wasn't the same thing.

Felissan · Post Post #287 (isolation #22) » Sat Dec 26, 2015 5:08 am

Because of the bullet mechanic, if I get shot, it's the Rat or the Fox. The MAA would basically get revealed if that happened, and that role is particularly prone to losing once revealed because they always lose dances.
If I get lynched, I instantly lose the game, so of course I'll do everything in my ability to avoid it.
Now, here's why you should go with my deal: if I just revealed the Man-At-Arms, they would be killed in the vote. If it goes as planned, you'll get rid of someone else with the vote in addition to the MAA. So, it's favorable to everyone involved if I hold off on giving the Man-At-Arms away.

Huh, I guess you're right.
It's the Fox, guys.

Felissan · Post Post #298 (isolation #25) » Sat Dec 26, 2015 9:59 pm

Whaaaaat. I gave you all a great advantage if you settled for killing someone else than me, and you kill me instead; next, I give you the number 1 danger in the game, and he's one of the other lynch candidates, and I get even more votes? That's just dumb, if you want to know what I think of it.

Felissan · Post Post #299 (isolation #26) » Sat Dec 26, 2015 11:06 pm

Oh, and if you're wondering why I didn't vote the Fox...

Loopholes!

Felissan · Post Post #304 (isolation #27) » Sun Dec 27, 2015 5:11 am

Yeah, I'll cast my vote.
VOTE: The Mouse
Voting the Fox would be a treason, so instead, I'll vote that one person who felt like ruining my deal and caused this unnecessary wagon.

Felissan · Post Post #306 (isolation #28) » Sun Dec 27, 2015 10:57 am

Yup. To sum this up:
Me: Free advantage for most people!
Mouse: Nah.

So, I was thinking in my corner about general strategies for a few roles, seeing this game as a mafia-like game where everyone is a scum faction on their own.
Turns out it really was a social game, and the only private interaction I ever had was with a small 4-player alliance where everyone died in two rounds. ika also tried to get my role, but I didn't answer at all.
And to anybody thinking it was actually a good idea to share your role, here's my number one guideline in any game where private communication is allowed: there can be loopholes in any truce. Any shared info that may get you killed will get you killed, especially since there's only one winner. My mental reaction to ika's PM was just a plain "What."

Felissan · Post Post #402 (isolation #30) » Tue Jan 05, 2016 9:30 am

In any game with only one winner and with so many ways to get someone dead, the winner in an alliance is the first one to betray his "ally". ika didn't even have to guess you himself, he could have relayed your role to someone else against some favor.
