Oh yeah that's some other bullshit
Let’s talk this one out.

Defender is fine IMO because each use of the ability comes with cost. You can blow your wad and protect lots of people/everyone but then you are a Farmer the rest of the game. Also a berserk wolf wrecks you.

Conjuror can normally take anyone’s ability, but it’s a one-time use only.

It’s a problem with the role switching. But if the wolves kill Conju it’s basically gone forever, it would take someone else four days to get there even if they start at the optimal place. And toxic wolf is one day away for the wolves.

I like the idea of defender, kind of high risk and high reward depending how they play it, gives them options
 
The name comes from my old Hotmail account. I had an account called "dimwit" but I forgot the password.
Every time I hear Hotmail I think back to this comment I read online where they were sharing work stories or something. This one guy was on an interviewing panel where he and other managers were doing a group-interview for a new hire, and this girl they were interviewing did really well in the interview and they were about to hire her and then he glanced at her resume and saw that her contact email was "[email protected]" and he was like *facepalm* and told her she needed to come up with a different work email and she was like genuinely confused what they found wrong about it. In the end he helped her come up with a more professional email and hired her.

Story will probably stick with me for the rest of my life.

Any hole's a goal, fellahs. Find you a girl like that.

Edit: I keep removing the hyperlink and it keeps putting it back. Guh.

Yeah I've been thinking about it and I came to a similar outlook though I'd argue it might should be a Strong role
 
I'm liking this way of playing. It makes it a little less one-sided by leaving it ambiguous as to how many strong or weak roles there currently are, because so far the games have been that the town figures out who the strong roles are first, then does process of elimination of the weak roles and then the wolves and solos have no place to hide and the game is almost always wrapped up by the end of Day 2 with a town win that people feel was undeserved.

This is making for a more fun and enjoyable game that lasts longer and makes you have to think more.

Wait is this real?

Local outed himself to tell them they are lynching the Fool and they still are?

Wow?
:rofl
He said "Christina is the fool we're all doomed" after the post where he tried his red lady clearing thing (which really just read as "I'm a wolf confirming you shouldn't lynch her").

Now Ben and FR just need to move to Tommy.

Not gonna lie, if Christina is Fool and wins; it'll be deserved. She's been amusing to watch.

Although there appears to be a recurring theme that the town seems hell-bent on losing.
 
Assuming Jon was the cult leader, Vash was a genuine trickster wolf, and Tommy and Local both end up being wolves, that still leaves at least one wolf unaccounted for. Benzine and Kat are confirmed, Ben is also confirmed town. Christina was not the gunner but was given a gun, so she's unconfirmed (but most likely Fool?)

That just leaves either FR or Jawneh as the final wolf.

It was you. You was the wolf.

Jon confirmed FR redirected the cult shot and Jawneh gave Christina a gun.

Jon can only confirmed that his intended target moved, not who redirected it. But that still leaves a forger, flagger, and non-violent solo to account for. I'm thinking Ben is possibly one of those unless I missed something.
No one but FR is claiming to have redirected it. Jawneh claimed flagger on the first wolf attack that killed kat, but no one is saying "nuh uh FR I was the one who flagged it not you"

Like I said, something's not lining up. I realized that their claims haven't been contradicted yet which is why I haven't singled out one of them. But something is not lining up.

Benzine confirmed Ben was attacked by the wolves through his defender save, so Ben is not a wolf but can technically be solo voter. That would leave room for Christina to be a wolf.

But if you were avenger from the beginning then there shouldn't be a way for Zell to have forgotten that. Also what would the actual likelihood of you being tagged by the trickster wolf for overnight be? It's possible, but all low chance.

You'd be surprised when it comes to Zell forgetting things. Want to bet money he says he remembered everything this game?

As for what is the likelihood of being tagged by a trickster: about the same as by any other player. What makes you think that is so farfetched? Stranger coincidences have happened in these games and that's not even a strange thing. Remember when Quagmire had Shaman you and I checked your aura on the same night, and you won as head hunter? Yeah next to things like that, a trickster picking me is super astronomical, no way is it plausible oh me oh my!

It's everything together that's such low odds. Not just you being picked for a potential trickster.

Forgetting to avenge on someone who had been avenger all game? That's harder to believe, especially when you're also trying to convince us that math isn't adding up for the wolves when the simplest solution is that you're actually a wolf, which is why you asked if there was a speak to the dead role before coming out with your "I'm actually avenger and somehow that was missed!" statement.
