How so?

My thought (admittedly I don't have many good thoughts) is that if we put someone innocent with a good role in a trial, they're forced to reveal important details about themselves. If we find them not guilty, or whatever it is, then the mobsters have a good target. There are no protect roles, right?

How does it help us unless we get lucky in voting for a mobster AND jury finding them guilty

If we don't put someone on trial, the literal earliest we COULD kill someone is during Day 3 (not counting vigilante), which gives the mafia 2 (maybe 3) more kills. That's not even including bad cop or vigilante.

I vote Local Hero.

I've been in a meeting for the past 5 and half hours and unable to read or keep up with this. Does everyone hate eachother yet? Do we need another just for funsies game?

I did see someone ask about last night I think. I gave too many badges out last night, including the big dick award to Ants. That's not a sight we all want to see though.

I assumed both kills were by the mob, which I said I felt was most likely. In that case, do you still feel it's dumb?
it's less dumb. it's still premature. I wouldn't have burned my one extra night kill on the first night. not at a random order.

again: this is NOT zells game and is a different strategy. everyone (zell specifically) said I figured out the meta for his game in like 3 posts.

well I'm telling you the meta in this game is NOT blind aggression. there's no need for it when they can isolate and destroy.

Blind aggression is out, visible aggression is in.

Whether or not the wolves strategy is dumb is kind of immaterial at this point; it’s what they did.

Hey @canadaguy what were you up to last night
Stop arguing with Cole so much and pay attention :chuckle

ironically enough, yes, visible aggression is what they want.

there is ONE seer in this game, and they have an advantage they never have in these games. they have a guaranteed night kill EVERY NIGHT (no protectors), and the town DOES NOT have a guaranteed kill every day. even if we came to a majority of who to put on trial, mobsters could influence the trial enough to lose a kill.

the mob shouldn't want to be in the shadows. "out yourself and die" should be their message. show how strong they are, show the powers they have when we know they have them.

they don't have to worry about 8 seers, protectors, and other killers.

why rush? be overt in your aggression if you're gonna be aggressive.

But town has vigilante though who could just pick off the mafia if they out themselves like that.
