Question - Do you personally believe its anti-town to help the specialist with what their actions SHOULD be?
The specialist isn’t going to reveal themselves. It’s an open debate on what is mechanically “correct”. I think that’s a fine way to do things.
Mechanically, I believe the BEST move would be a roleblock on whichever killer comes first in priority - it would give the other killers incentive to try and bus them so they can attack, and it should give some very telling interactions.
The WORST move is a Heart Rate check - Learning about an inactive killer is “cool”, but all it’s going to do is give the primary killer more time to strike. Also any High checks are a waste of a night which is Very -EV
I do - for the simple reason that people tend to reveal too much, even when they’re trying not to. The risk is too high in my mind.
Hm… I’m fine with taking risks to make town’s wincon easier, but that might just be my playstyle
Do you think it’s 100% alignment indicative that someone agreed with you mechanically?
Look I think any half decent player can make some decisions regarding their role that don’t require crowdsourcing, and still leave the game in a decent place.
Not necessarily, no. I just think a Killer would be somewhat more inclined to discuss the Specialist to see if anybody let’s it slip that it’s them.
That’s a better way to put it, although I believe its not too strong of a point.
Any reason for voting Phone?
This shows that they’re thinking quite carefully about who the Specialist is. Which means they’re probably a Killer. I might even say the same thing for you, Golden Girl.
So you guys should shoot each other and see who survives. Sounds like fun.
Now if I was a Killer, I would be looking carefully for clues about who else is out there. Because well, you can get trumped by another Killer in the end. Just sayin’.
Hmmmm
Are you basing your reads solely off of who’s hunting for Specialist?
Because that’s a bad way to play imo
It’s the only way to play this day. If nobody has any information outside of what their own role is, then what would you like us to do exactly?
Literally the only thing Townies need to do is try to avoid executing the Specialist. Outside of that? It doesn’t matter who gets executed.
See who’s trying to not get 1ynched?
See who’s trying to break into a towncore?
See who’s trying to cause distrust between others?
There’s many ways to read for a killer here. Just because someone is hunting for spec doesn’t mean they’re a killer - it means they’re just simply trying to find out Who Specialist Is - whether it be for better reads or a nightkill option.
How should we play today? Try to eliminate things that are alignment indicative.
And… other townies…???
There’s enough of us that today if a Townie dies that’s not the Specialist, I’m cool with that.
1ynching 2 townies puts town in basically autoloss unless Specialist saves us, do you WANT to 1ynch VT’s?
I for one would prefer to hit a killer today, not sure what your motive is /shrug
I’m realistic - it’s the most likely outcome. I have already explained why I’m voting Phone. I’m not intentionally trying to hit a Townie.
