we also need to take into account potential bussing roles in such where evils can only shoot other evils.
after that last game, I am not immediately giving anyone full credit just because of who they vig or shoot

My opinion, ISO is...void of meaning? That may be more cause for alarm than I am giving it credit for since Sloonei is unknown to me. Educate me please.
he knows better
he has since unvoted and is instead voting for iwan and hyena for also very garbage reasons

I had assumed that we were informed of the number of Wolves because we are living in a simulation, and the rules of that simulation stipulate some amount of public information to ensure balance.

To my understanding a lone wolf is part of the mafia alignment, but they are not part of the chat, nor the other mafia know they are mafia, there are special continents sometimes for them to join the wolf chat and become regular mafia, the Winn with mafia, unlike 3p that have special winning conditions.ColinIsCool wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 2:41 pmBy “lone wolves” do y’all mean independently-aligned/third-party (3P) players, like a serial killer?

He looks decent right now imo. Crafty fella, but largely in line with the most recent town games I’ve seen from him in the last month or so.

I meant like on setups where part of the mafia either cant communicate with the remaining ones or, when it can, it may only do so with specific members (godfather for example).

Given that the arso is already dead means they're not any higher of a priority than other scum.
I think discussing lost wolves d1 is pointless, and should be avoided for raisins.
Lastly, I wouldnt trust firefighter claims unless we have evidence of a second arso role
