Killing Sal while they still have a mass jail would be a huge waste.

If the vote goes Sal's way I think we should back off and let him mass jail tonight - if Sal's town then we know that jail > roleblock so there's no plausible way it fails. A mass jail means nobody dies and we have the next day to vote him if necessary. No mass jail means sal was lying and we can just dunk him then.

Either way even if you believe Sal's scum (I don't any more) it makes more sense to do someone else today.

or is there some reason why a mass jail is bad for us I'm missing?

I agree with this. A mass jail is pro-town. I actually was thinking it would have been a good play N3.

If Sal doesn't get voted out today and he then doesn't prove his claim by Jailing everyone and stopping the kill tonight, that would pretty decisively prove he was lying and already used it.

Want to change your story Sal? Did you already use it last night after all?

According to Xiw regardless of what I do tonight I'm a target again, so why would I want to suffer through another day of this unending bullshit?

The best reason I can think of for scum doing the mass roleblock is if they wanted to stop the last CPig vig from happening. It goes with either theory about what happened to vig - either they got the first but not the second, or they just learned about it with the CPig flip and wanted to shut it down. Because of Sal's claimed ability, that puts them in the spotlight. If Sal's scum and gets lynched, it'd ruin the entire point of that move to stop an ally from being killed and would actually leave the secret alliance in a worse position than if they didn't do the omni block. So a Sal lynch is not an option for me today.

Lumpen posted:

That's a good point and gives Sal a motive for popping the MegaJail. If the Vig was in the wild and they feared it was going to hit one of them, the MegaJail would protect them from that Vig and also wipe out any other Town power roles that might catch them, and give them a chance to push for a mis-vote today. That might be worth forsaking their own NK.

Except again, we know we had 3 kill attempts N2. So how do you guys reconcile that with this track? Scum would have to know the vig was still out, but not have it themselves. How does any of that work with Pig dead and 2 kill attempts according to flipped town Steak?

There has to be at least one other killing role out there yes. I was wondering about cpig hitting a PGO but everyone has claimed active abilities now. i'll try and get an updated and clearer post with all the claims / actions together, work's a bit unpredictable this morning tho.

We had a survivor flip, that's not the same thing at all. And unless Steak lied again (and if he did so help me god steak) then we had 3 kills in one night. No matter how you slice we more likely than not have an SK

I don't understand your point. The Alliance would either learn about the vigs on either D1 or N2 if they received it on N1, or D3 when CapitalistPig flipped and we all learned what his ability was. When they would know if they didn't have the second vig depending on how the ability works - if the recipient learns about the vig when they receive it, the Secret Alliance would know whether they have it or not at the end of N2. Otherwise, they'd be able to deduce that none of them have the vig at the end of D3, whether they know how the notification works or not. The fact there was a third kill is important, but I don't see how it specifically contradicts this. Am I missing anything?
