Micro 772: Jester Nightless

[Something_Smart]

Yes, but we weren't part of it because I got us lynched day 2 for hard defending a scum day 1.

Also, if you're jester, you're never going to win, so you should be happy if you aren't.

VOTE: nk15
setup spec instead of scumhunting
and i dont get jester vibes

Scumhunting will only result in a Jester lynch.
This is not a normal game.

i know how to play this game btw
youre like very very likely not jester

Oh yeah!

We dug ourselves quite the hole! Still don't believe it tho lol

[Assembaa]

I think SS is fine tbh
he was defending nm when nm was pmuch a likely lynch choice and he argued against it after the lynch, while bussing here would have been much more helpful

I am not.

[Assembaa]

yeah do you want to try to progress the game

[JaydragonKing]

At this point you should have just entered as yourself, Sheep.

[Not Known 15]

yeah do you want to try to progress the game

So... the strategy is...
1. Day 1- Day 3: Lynch the most obvious townies.
2. Day 4: Hope that the 3 most scummy townies kill a mafia at LYLO
3.Day 5/6:Lynch the last mafia.
Right?

This hasn't changed. We should lynch the most obvious townies, since jesters will be indistinguishable from scum(at least if they are not playing badly).

[sheepsaysmeep]

that is actual bullshit oml

[sheepsaysmeep]

oops

[Assembaa]

hahaha

[Assembaa]

jester motivation and scum motivation are different

jester WANTS TO BE LYNCHED BEFORE DAY 3
scum WANTS TO SURVIVE AND NOT BE LYNCHED HAVE TOWNS LYNCHED

for example, i see

very clearly

that you arent jester. it's not that fucking hard try to lynch scum not the people that are holding town together

I get that you townread me.
Yeah the motivation is different(but it is before Day 4, not 3)
But, Assembaa, it is much more difficult to catch someone with a fake town motivation than to catch someone with a fake mafia motivation.
Additionally, I cannot really get any good townreads(because I am not good at it). My scumreads would probably be Jester, so... I am not of any use until Day 4.

[Assembaa]

i scumread you

[Assembaa]

try again

next

[Not Known 15]

Good. I think you are town, Assembaa.
Which means, according to my plan...

But, Assembaa, it is much more difficult to catch someone with a fake town motivation than to catch someone with a fake mafia motivation.

Ergo, it is easier to say that someone is definitely NOT jester than it is to say that someone is definitely NOT scum.

[Assembaa]

holy shit
also the way dino says we quicklynch nm the moment someone else flips jester is likely not w/w

No!
A competent Jester will try to look like a mafia who tries to be townish, and that is not difficult at all.

[Assembaa]

no that's just bad

[Something_Smart]

Really?

It sounds difficult to me.

[Assembaa]

im also getting not jester vibes from ss

[Assembaa]

nk15 some players are decent and can differentiate forged scumminess from scummy scumminess
it's way harder than you think

dont vote your fucking townreads that's antitown as hell the setup doesnt change any of that shit

[Something_Smart]

Well the setup does change it. It is a far better strategy than it is in a normal game.

[Mathdino]

So we're agreed SS and NK15 are not only highly unlikely to be jester, but also are unlikely to be mafia.

So are we down to which one to lynch? Because it sure sounds like this is heading in a "lynch one then the other, then see who the jester is if the game is still up" direction.
