Yeah... we had all the information in the world, but it doesn't help if you can't control things better. Just having you alive Raine would've very likely got Vash and CG dead with a zerker hit.
 
The other thing that happened day 1 that was unfortunate I think was the shadowing. It was scheduled but I think it hurt the wolves.

It forced the village to vote someone, and it was always going to be Raine. I think without the Day 1 shadow you might be able to argue your way out of being lynched by claiming a provable role (I'm witch and I'm killing Vash tonight) or whatever.

On the other hand we need them gone to get wolf chat back to co-ordinate

Mmhm, my previous tomfoolery with the Guardian Wolf to boot. The timing didn't help either, being very soon after my posts. 🤣

I had considered not posting, of course, but Ben tagged me... I think it would've been more(?) suspicious had I just let it lay.

Who knows, though!

Vash was very much unconfirmed until Raine died. But nobody challenged him for the spot
I meant more on the instigator side knowing who was who. Maybe that clouded me/us. I realized that towards the end of day 1 that I should've just pressed him then and there as there could've even been a wolf shaman around too.

Still reading the thread. Damn there's a lot.

Figured I'd post here and say I now know how Vash felt when he first played a baddie and was anxious af. And this was doubled up behind two other team's backs for me as a first since og GW times when I believe I was merely there as an idea man and not leading anything. That said, I'm a thinker and not a doer at nature, so I was spinning ideas and plans. Then the last two nights... the anxiety hit and I thought I'd be missing stuff if I wasn't in the thread or instigator chat as well as my brain going into overdrive to make better plans lol. It's nuts. I love it, but damn will I sleep better tonight.

I feel you. Vash wasn't kidding when he said I was taking notes. I had diagrams and flow charts. The double agent type thing makes it really feel like you playing a different game from everybody else. So far though it's all I know of these games though.

Yeah it was a different experience having two private chats to manage, a role to claim and having all the information while also only being able to share certain parts of it.

I had three tabs in my Excel summarising what I knew when I was instigated, what I knew when I was wolf and what I knew when I was talking to the town. Thought it was an OK way to manage my story carefully, I don't think I blew anyone's cover until I had to try to protect Jawneh knowing I would die.

@Zell 17 a potentially minor tweak, perhaps the partner dies the day later suddenly and out of the blue? Then the Instigator gets their kills

Finally caught up to here! And I resisted quoting a bunch of things since my God I'd be here for a couple hours just going back pages to intercept other convos.

But reading all that did confirm that probably the biggest reason that was out downfall (or at least mine) was the abundance of information. Since I knew everything role was, I wasn't thinking that I can contest that. I just thought, well yeah that's you and I knew that already. Maybe if I did the Tubby and had an excel sheet open for us vs them info this could've went differently thinking wise, but oh well. Lessons learned for next time.

As for the random everyone round, I love the idea! Chaos is where I thrive! Idk if it's possible to have a game where the players themselves don't know their roles either until they do something. Maybe worth crafting something from that.

That would be fun. Every night just target a number for some action. Am I going to protect, investigate, or kill #4 ? Who knows

So if the town plays their cards right they literally finish it today.

I was really hoping that somebody was explicitly lying early, but alas...
