Yeah, I just checked that, it just says in both the PM and the OP that it can't be roleblocked or jailed and it can even hit a jailed target, so Kashuno must have died to n1 poison.

Probably they poisoned someone else last night then. And tomorrow night there could be 3 kills, 1 sk, 1 nk, 1 poison from previous night.

i don't think they can poison and kill in the same night?

right, see, I forgot about accounting for poison.

1/4/6 starting, if we lynch town and three towns die that's 1/4/2. Seven remain, four votes to lynch, Mafia control the vote. They lynch town and SK kills a mafia, it's 1/3/1, they still control; that's a Mafia victory. 1/4/2, lynch town, SK kills a town, same result.

From start, we lynch town, SK kills town, Mafia kill SK and a town, we go from 1/4/6 to 4/3, Mafia victory. A miss on the SK from doctor/jailer would result in 1/4/3, which is rough but technically winnable. A miss on town from any of those (no lynch, doctor/jail) gives us 1/4/4, which isn't the worst but still bad. If we lynch SK and the Mafia kill two towns we're at 4/4 which is a loss.

If we no lynch we toss the dice on where the SK aims and if the Mafia poisoned, but as long as the SK lives it's technically winnable, I think. If we lynch a town and the SK aims town we're out if the Mafia poisoned, but still in it if they did a normal NK. If we lynch the SK and the Mafia poisoned we lose; if they didn't we still have a chance.

So, in short, it's not straight traditional LYLO as I understand it, but I think it's close enough to be "oh god we're going to die if we screw up" territory as to make no difference.

Will claiming actually help us? If it will, I'm for it, but I want to see everyone else's thoughts first because my gut instinct for this sort of thing is not the greatest.

the list of role PMs in the OP? Like, where the hell else would I pull that from? What would you call it anyway besides that? If I'd called it the doc or the google doc would I then be getting asked if I got the info from the scumdoc?

Look, I'm new but I'd have to be an absolute moron to accidentally drop "oh, it says it's not stopped by bulletproof in my role PM" out right now.

We had one N1 death and two N2 deaths. One of those deaths was a bulletproof, which implies poison. This is backed up by the first night only having one kill. If Mafia poisoned N1 and N2, we get one death N1 from SK, two deaths N2 from SK and poison, and could potentially see 3 deaths N3 from SK, previous night's poison, and standard NK. It's the worst case scenario for town and ought to be accounted for.

At this point I feel like the balance has probably tilted to make it worthwhile. Power roles have lived and gathered information, and it's probably enough to put the puzzle together and start taking out Scum faster than the Scum can kill off revealed power roles. It kind of depends what each person knows and whether they actually feel they have succeeded in gathering useful data, though.

For me, though:
&&Massclaim: yes

I read that as a joke, FWIW.

I'm still thinking about massclaim stuff, trying to math it out. I would say tentatively a good idea, based on how many people we have left, but I'll give a more nuanced opinion later today.

Now you're just reaching. If I were scum I wouldn't be iterating out the possibilities, I'd be laying low hoping at least some of the town would miscalculate and lynch themselves to death. Give your enemy every chance to screw up and all that.

As for a mass claim, I'm vaguely for it but we don't have nearly enough yes votes to feel comfortable with it--by definition, we need at least six votes to be sure (as a group, not on a per person basis) there's at least one townies for it, and by my count there's four (not counting me).

yeah, just recounted. I think I was like "Jake said he supports, and then bolded a support, so subtract one from my number" except I had already taken that into account or something dumb. Still a really low number. Well, there's 28 hours to go, so still time.

What's the number we're looking for, anyway? Like, assuming everyone puts in input, of course. I imagine a simple majority would suffice as well as be the number of town left, but I want to be sure.
