Ok, president first, chancellor second. Everything is from memory, but it should be right.

PMush/Byers - drew 2F1L, passed 1F1L, enacted 1L
CapnAndy/kumba - drew 2L1F, passed 2L, enacted 1L
KB/TMM - drew 3F, passed 2F, enacted 1F - investigated RF as fascist
CPig/AA - drew 2F1L, passed either 1L1F or 2F, enacted 1F - conflict - investigated KB as liberal
DB/kumba - drww 2F1L, passed 1L1F, enacted 1L - new shuffle happens after this government.
RF - government denied
Kumba/TMM - drew 2F1L, passed 1L1F, enacted 1L
AA - government denied
TMM/Byers - drew 3F, passed 2F, enacted 1F - special election to Byers
Byers/KB - drew 3F, passed 2F, enacted 1F - assassination incoming.

Now I don't remember all the votes, but notable no votes were by Capn against all of chances. I think PMush and AA have also had notable no votes iirc but I'm not as sure of that.

RF and AA were the no's on the Byers/KB docket.
Think Cap was a no on anything you were up for.

That's all I remember off hand.

I think it is important to put him back into power. He 100% will get a liberal card next pull. There is no way around it. So the chancellor is for sure getting at least 1 L. If TMM is a liberal, he'll be getting 2. If TMM is a fascist, he'll be getting only 1. So our Chancellor choice is super important.
I think I follow your reasoning here RE: a Byers confirmation either way, but there's still the possibility that Byers draws LFF, isn't there? And if he's Hitler, he can windmill slam two Fs and go against any vetos, then he can shoot whoever he wants this AND next time. So he shoots whoever this time, shoots me next time, and Presidency passes to either Andy or you? And with both you and Andy on the possibly Fascist list, that essentially locks us into "gotta trust someone locked out or rely on a topdeck"? It'd be especially easy to justify shooting me since I'm a prime Hitler suspect.

Or am I missing something?

If he does that then he completely burns himself up to force the game to get to a 4/4 liberal/fascist split with 5F4L policies on the board and a new 8 card deck that has 6F2L in it.

I mean I guess that is worth it but it seems like a stretch.

Well, you are missing a few things.

A) Byers can't shoot anyone this time and still be elected president. He has to listen to who we want this round, and if he does RF, that is one Fascist gone, so we are in decent shape.
B) If he's Hitler, he can absolutely, NEXT round, shoot whoever he wants, but if he does that, then we will KNOW that he is a fascist. That actually helps clear someone TMM, for example. Now, he could shoot TMM, but if we got RF the previous round, at least there is still parity. Also, we have firm confirmation of another fascist which helps clear up others as liberals.
C) I am not a possible Fascist. It's true I was in conflict with RF because I investigated him as Fascist and he claims to not be. But pretty much everyone agrees I'm a probable liberal AND I have an investigation confirmation from Cpig. If I'm a fascist, Cpig has to 100% be a fascist as well. The only scenario that anyone could posit that made this make sense was if I was Hitler. And we have confirmation I'm not.

I think it makes a reasonable gamble if he can't otherwise guarantee us putting a Fascist in power. With a 6F2L, we are in incredible danger of an FFF draw, or an FFL draw and being wrong on someone's alignment.

Okay, then how about this.

Byers shoots anyone. We pass his next government. Then we are guaranteed to get either you or me as President.

Hell, gently caress it. If I get shot, still pass Byers and then KB is president and we're in good shape for KB picking a townie chancellor and winning.

Or if you think that the deck really is FLL, pass Byers and then either I or KB are forced to pass an L, and if try to nominate someone who's either Fascist or Hitler, veto. Either way, as long as one of KB or I lives, we win, but that's only possible if we don't let Byers take two shots.

Basically no matter what the situation, if either KB or I get shot, please loving please do not give Byers another one.

Another thought:

If TMM is the fascist of the Byers/TMM pairing, then Kumba is not hitler. No way no how. Otherwise TMM wouldn't have tried to hard to get him investigated. So if Byers does something crazy that outs him as the for sure fascist in that pairing, we learn that Kumba is liberal 100%.

Er, no. I thought this through really badly. If Byers clears TMM, it doesn't clear Kumba. It's only if we think Byers is the liberal in the pairing that Kumba is cleared. Nevermind me.

And absolute worst case scenario with Hitler Byers and neither KB or, a triple veto puts us on a 1/3 to win on raw topdeck, which is still better odds than a Fascist president with a 6F2L deck.

Also KB, do you think there is anyway both me and Byers are fascist?

Remember, if I'm the next chancellor for Byers then I will have seen 7 of the 12 cards in the deck and Byers will have seen 8 of 12. We will have both seen 4 of the same cards.

If there's a conflict then it will absolutely require Byers to say he passed 1L1F.

Yeah, I really need to know Byers alignment for a lot of this analysis.

So we'll see who he shoots. If he shoots RF, then I'm good to elect him to help confirm alignments further. But really need to pick a chancellor that will help provide further clarification.

Can't be TMM. We need a different set of eyes on these last cards.

Ideally it would be someone we don't think is partners with TMM if he's fascist. I think this is where I was going with my Kumba thoughts. If TMM is fascist, then Kumba is not. So if both TMM and Kumba say Byers is lying after this next presidency, it would prove Byers is the liar.

No, doesn't seem especially likely. We already know 2 of the fascists are outside you two. Your play doesn't make a ton of sense for me if you are the other two.

But as I said, leaving it to just you two just makes it a 2 person he said/she said. Who do we believe of you two if it is just you two?

We need another party involved. Then it is Byers word vs both your word and the third persons word. If there is a conflict.

I feel like electing kumba as chancellor is the same thing as electing me since the three people who have had most of the power this deck have been me/ kumba/Byers.

And I'm still concerned that kumba is Hitler.

This is fairish. It is just extremely unlikely that kumba drew 2L on that first draw right?

I'm willing to consider someone else. Kumba was just an obvious choice because you can't be fascists together. That makes for an extremely valuable sanity check.

I'm a bit concerned that you don't seem to be seeing my logic about needing the third party though. This should be super obvious. Think it through.

No I see it but because I KNOW I'm a liberal, it turns that situation into me wondering about 2 people instead of absolutely knowing about 1.

I'd go for Cpig as chancellor I guess.

I'm not 100% on him, but the fact that he confirmed me as Liberal helps his status in my eyes. And AA has been all over the place in his views which lowers his status.

I also still think there is like 0% chance that a Hitler Cpig caused that conflict with AA by lying about cards. So electing him won't end the game like it would if we choose wrongly with Kumba/DB/or the like.

Hmmm, no, I don't think so.

If you know you are liberal and know you didn't ditch a card, then you should be expecting Byers to draw two L cards this next go, right?

So then if Byers said he only got 1L, you should already know he's lying, for sure. And him getting 1L is the only way we don't pass a liberal policy for sure, right? Since if he gets 2L, he'll pass them both if he's liberal.

You should know emphatically the alignment of 2 players rather than just 1, after this next election if we elect someone with him that isn't you.

Honestly? I'm starting to think maybe I was wrong on Pmush. This feels like a lot of effort to go to, to pretend to be wrong on various things over and over. Surely any fascist player, even Hitler, wouldn't play like this?

I know I have to be wrong on one of Pmush/Cap, if one of TMM/Byers ends up being a fascist. Right now I'm leaning towards Pmush as the one I was wrong about.

I don't think she wants DB dead so much as she wants the kill pointed away from her. Remember, the only thing she contributed to this game was a chain investigation that would, coincidently, keep the investigation away from her. And when we talked about investigating her or me prior to a nomination, she went radio silent despite campaigning for the nomination prior to that.

IMO, the only legit choices for chancellor are me and, surprisingly, probably one of either CapnAndy or PMush. I might be able to get behind a DB nom, but I'm wary about it.

Here's my problem, I just can't trust that a Hitler Byers didn't pass a fascist KB a choice which would also make CPig a fascist. Or a regular fascist Byers didn't force a fascist policy on a liberal KB which would leave CPig up in the air.

I am terrified that kumba is Hitler. I don't know if that's a fear shared by others. I'm a little worried that DB could be Hitler, but I still think he's probably the most likely to be liberal right now. I can't trust AA.

I mean I can't really trust PMush or Capn either, but I think I'm more willing to give one of them a chance than I am to give one to AA
