in a perfect world it is but given it never happens finding a solid enough poe and then narrowing the game harshly into solving through that POE is painful for the mafia inside and outside of it if town play properly...robyn wrote: ↑Sat Dec 23, 2023 10:18 pmi didn't know that, i thought a poe was supposed to be pure fur and eject all townies out of itMacDougall wrote: ↑Sat Dec 23, 2023 10:14 pm The whole point is to make a POE that has enough fur in it that it makes day 1 retrospectively readable by forcing the wolves outside it to play around it on a way town don't have to, making life very difficult for the mafia.
I would never insist upon my poe being blindly followed past d1 but in this gamestate there's only mafia utility to bothering outside of it prior to the end of d1.
good to know, i'll keep the tinfoiling inside my head
a pure d1 poe is like as rare as hell and generally the outcome is the same anyway... the point is that as long as it's reasonable and likely to have at least 33% mafia in it then you have enough runway for it to be game winning if the town continue to solve through it and the town within it at least try to project towniness
