Not to ask the rude question but is this game worth playing if the town and cult work together to find the SM?

I.E., does the SM have decent odds of victory and he won't just be steamrolled? Is there an actual game to play above the rote execution of a strategy identified early on?

[Knightwing64]

Well, web said that normally if I said something like that, I was supposed to post my role, but then somebody said don’t  post roles so I dunno.


I am Town, a factchecker.

[ToonyMan]

Knightwing is not the SM.

[Lidku]

What abilities does the Fact-Checker role have?

I’m not saying that out loud? If you say your role and ability, sure.

[webadict]

Knightwing is not the SM.

^True.

So, here's do we go for a Cult win or a Town win, Toony?

[webadict]

Unless the SM has a power that lets him flip roles himself, how does he stop the Cult publicly claiming and targeting itself with the cult conversion while the town uses its public conversion on every Cult member in turn?

Yeah, this is the entire point. Unless the game is completely breakable from the get-go, we have to assume the SM has some powerful ability that lets them fight back if town massclaims. Otherwise we have ten days to hit presumably three or four players, when it's in their own interest to claim.

You guys think this is Cult vs. Town? You're wrong. It's Cult vs. SM vs. Town, and our win-goals rely on the Cult and Town finding the SM, and THEN working together to make sure the Town and Cult are one alignment at the end.

This is stupid. It is cult&town vs SM, like I said.

Unless you've adopted the * notation, but I suspect nobody is going to bother making themselves clear.

That's not entirely true.

The Cult and the Town are on the same side, but they are not on the same team. Working together requires reading one side or the other.

@Max: What happens in the event of a tie for a Town vote? What happens in the event of a tie for a Cult vote? Can you vote yourself in the Town vote? Can you vote yourself in the Cult vote?

[webadict]

I say we tentatively vote for our method of winning.

I vote Town.

[NJW2000]

Oooh, I get it. Sorry Web. That was slow of me and careless of Lidku. Little bit bastard, eh?

I say we tentatively vote for our method of winning.

I vote Town.

Unless I get cult-converted first, I'm only ok with Town.

[Lidku]

Since we're apparently revealing our roles, but not our abilities, I guess I'll showcase mine:

I'm a Town, Stand User.

[webadict]

Hmm...

I'm going to lie.

I'm a Cult Astronomer.

[ToonyMan]

I vote Town winning.

I'm a Town Brainwasher.

Since Webadict is claiming Cult we should vote him today to make him town.

[webadict]

I have no problems being voted.

webadict.

I will note that my power becomes pretty useless as Town...

Well, almost useless. It's good for clearing.

[NJW2000]

Toonyman: what does a brainwasher do?

[Lidku]

I think we should've saved webadict for last, since he's cooperating for us. webadict might've been able to eke out some suspicious Cult activity and/or abilities, even if the Cult doesn't have shared communications this game.

But since webadict is already two votes deep, lets go for him.
