Do you think I should've role claimed immediately and thrown a rock and asked for protection? I considered it, but wasn't sure anybody would believe me since a bully was already killed the first night. You know people, "but what're the odds?"
Hard call in a game with 4 Random Wolves. It could just have easily resulted in a double kill via Berserk, y'know?

Talking potential Most Effective Tactic and comparing that to the actual scenario doesn't line up well a lot of the time!

Edit: I'm dumb as rocks (hurrhurr!) and would've gone for it, just lobbing a rock at someone completely at random Night 0. But then I also just shot Alu completely at random in your game and we saw how well that went. :rofl

Although I suppose Tommy could hope that someone, maybe Jon, is convinced that by saying Benzine should check himself that Jon questions it enough to not protect Benzine.

I dunno. This game is racing toward the finish line

I think that's the play he's going for.

I hope it is, because if anyone is gonna go down that hole it's Jon. Especially when Local pops as Wolf Seer and Voodoo could be out there.

I want this so bad for Tommy.

I'm hoping Tommy telling Benzine to check him and tell Dean to target who he thinks is a wolf - he goes for Dean.

We almost did earlier, Tommy has to see the value in the 2 for 1 and take the swing.

It can only throw rocks during the day, so I had all day to pick a target. My plan was to hold off because my only vibes were for TD, and whether he was legit or not, I wanted to see who he reported on the next day. I figured I could throw a rock whenever to get at least one person to vouch for me if I did end up a lynch target, so I wasn't too concerned about people becoming suspicious of me for not claiming anything.

Even after reading the role list in here once, I forgot who everybody was and guessed a bunch of the wolves wrong, so maybe they should've left me alive. Chances are I would've concussed at least a couple townies. Like my post in the wolf privacy thread about maybe Tommy was faking the voodoo wolf... I only posted that because I thought he was a townie and that I was posting nonsense... whoops.

Right, right. I remember roles, I definitely don't remember when each are active. I've tried doing illegal actions so many times and Zell's always poopooing my parade. But I wanna jail the person nooow~

It's still the same general principal though, you get four rocks in total so if you get reason to believe the person you concussed isn't a baddie you're at worst down 1 kill but still have an additional disrupt/cancel available in addition to a full kill. So, unless you want to see a specific person try and act and prove themselves - which is also why I didn't imprison anyone Night 1 - there's no real downside. And by throwing the rock, you prove the existence of your role so long as the person you hit talks about it. And if they don't talk about it... well that's interesting, and there might be something to look into there.

I think here you're dead either way though. FR dying and being a Strong Villager doesn't really indicate anything, especially with him being #2 on the random list. But you dying right after makes it pretty likely a Blind Wolf is around, and me dying solidifies that.

Metaworking.
Eww, kill it with fire.

You have a role that's provable, which gives you the luxury to not claim since you have no need to establish credibility. Or, even better, claim something terrible. If you claim to be a priest or tough guy or whatever you probably don't get checked by the wolves since they "know" what you are.

I feel like Dean would definitely not choose to target nobody.

Dean is gonna fixate that his gut was right on me, Kelly, and Local - and kill Jawneh.
