Ok.

So Miller counterclaim between Birdstrike and Aafter. That's exciting.

Still waiting for Chaos and Tomm to claim.

I think birdstrike is lying and was just breadcrumbing as the godfather.

But I still don't think we should lynch either of you and should lynch a backup. Let the sk and scum kill them

Actually, I hadn't really considered it previously, but this is the best power for scum or SK to pretend to be. We are going to have to resolve it eventually since neither may want to waste their time with the miller.

that's fine, and also remember that no one inherits the miller role, but the sk has to deal with the godfather if he ever wants to win and that's 4 nk's that will be used eventually

But if we lynch the godfather that just saved the sk from two night kills he doesn't have to waste

A Thunderdome between claimed BP Millers is pretty ideal for D1.

It is the only Power that doesn't get inherited anyway. If we lynch the non-Town, then we have a Confirmed Town who is a pain in the rear end to get rid of for the Scum or the SK.

I'll put my money on the breadcrumbs.

How is it going to be a 17% chance? Second while I math, this doesn't make sense.

pretending the others claim backups, that's 4 scum out of 10 players, so 40%

but what's important is that the two claimed miller's almost certainly have 4 night lives (if godfather and bulletproof) or 3 (if another scum and bulletproof). The SK HAS to chew through that to win.

That's a safe buffer to let them live and concentrate on finding the sk. When the SK is dead, then we can revisit this, but I don't think it's a good idea to kill one of them until the sk does or is dead

If we assume 1 bad guy among birdstrike/aafter(there better be or they are throwing the game), then that leaves 4 bad guys among the other players.

We can remove the 4 other uncountered power roles.

So that is 6 total of the 16 that are removed from contention.

4 bad guys among the remaining 10 claimed backups or unclaimed. 40%

You can't use uncountered by people who haven't claimed. You can only work with what we know at this moment.

We have 5+ power role claims, so there's no reason to think the holdouts might have power roles in them. Probably should lynch them first now

Yeah, after thinking about it more, the fake has to be scum. If it's SK the scum can just take them out right away and not worry about them anymore. So this claim only makes sense as scum really. But if SK did fake claim miller here, that is another reason to not vote them out. Make scum deal with it.

NEWSFLASH, KK: The Bulletproof Godfather is PERMANENTLY BP. The Godfather must be lynched in order for the SK to win. Does that change your calculus?

the OP posted:

Scum BP Godfather Central Officer Bradford "

Even after the failure of the first XCOM, you never gave up hope. Now, your every day is another chance to find the Commander and take back the planet from the alien scum. You and your team have been presented with a juicy target deep in the heart of an Advent city, and you'll be damned if you're going to let this opportunity slip. These rookies may not have the same experience and training as you do, but your own ability as a ground commander should prove more than enough.

You are Central Officer Bradford. You cannot be killed at night, and will investigate as LOYAL. If you choose to make the scum kill yourself, you will lose both of these powers for the night.

You win when XCOM has complete control over the area of operations, and controls the vote."
