But two wolf teams killing and one has a one-shot extra kill isn't that crazy.

Re: Fargo Mafia [NIGHT 4]
he’s claiming it’s two-shot
and it is crazy when town’s only way to kill people we want to kill is through an elimination in that world. so two or three people wolves want dead die every night and meanwhile we can only kill one person we want every day
i mean, in pretty much every large role madness game town has SOME extra kp. and in this game with two wolf controlled kills every night there’s all the more reason to have it

Re: Fargo Mafia [NIGHT 4]
like, there’s only so much i can doubt in this game
do i just kill nook because he might be a wolf vig that made a pro-town shot when there’s no other apparent villa kp in the game?
do i just assume that the basic conventions of game balance that i’ve seen in pretty much every game don’t apply here?
i can’t do that. i have to go with what i have in front of me and make inferences off of that. and i’m inferring that nook is a villager from the information i have. if that ends up being wrong for some unknowable reason that i can’t possibly predict right now, all i can do is throw up my hands after the game and say “alright, maybe next time”

Re: Fargo Mafia [NIGHT 4]
i also don’t really get how alison can be a wolf. if she was claiming anything besides exactly what she’s claiming i might be worried
but she’s claiming to have information that has been corroborated by more than one person. she’s also claiming a mechanically verifiable action that allows her to control other’s actions. how can that be a wolf role? i struggle to believe she would simply make all that up as a wolf, and if it’s not made up i think it pretty much can’t be a wolf role? because it seems op as hell to give a wolf control of other’s night actions like that?
unless she’s like wolves with exactly kza and odd and they concocted this entire thing before the game began i don’t get it
or maybe there’s some unknowable mechanical twist that makes it make sense as a wolf role. but what can i do about that? nothing afaict

Re: Fargo Mafia [NIGHT 4]
Who are the other two troopers then?
Also, what's wrong with four town troopers with one corrupt cop giving orders? Part of it is that they can disobey the orders, what if that's there BECAUSE Alison is a wolf?

Re: Fargo Mafia [NIGHT 4]
Alison's role strongly suggests there at least one mafia between her and the four troopers
Its clearly a counter to the troopers, the only question is whether it's a mafia counter to town troopers or a town counter to one or two mafia troopers

yes, but if they disobey the orders don’t they get stripped of their powers? and then alison can give them to someone else i think
so if she is a wolf she can give them orders to follow that are bad and then if they disobey she effectively vanillizes them
that seems so op. but maybe it’s op as a villa role too? i don’t know

Being vanillazied is not that bad, remember Goc where she fooled town in believing killing her means killing Dizzy and we didn't want to kill Dizzy.

although i could actually see it being something like alison has four trooper rolecards but only two are in the game so she doesn’t actually know which troopers to give orders to unless they claim

Re: Fargo Mafia [DAY 5]
This is a true story. The events depicted took place at The Syndicate Forum in April 2021. At the request of the survivors, the names have been changed. Out of respect for the dead, the rest has been told exactly as it occurred.
Someone attempted to kill [???], but failed.
@Long Con [Hank Larsson] has been super-killed.
"After WWII, we went six years without a - without a murder here. Six years. And these days, well... Sometimes wonder if you boys didn't bring that war home with ya."
Hank Larsson
[Passive] - As the Sheriff of Rock County and a WWII vet, Hank is a very respected member of his community. His vote counts as two.
[Active] - On odd nights, Hank may track a player and discover which player they visited (if any). On even nights, Hank may stake a player's location and learn the identity of any player that visited them that phase (if any).
--- [Active] - Twice during the game, he may instead choose to upgrade his surveillance on a target. He will learn the identity of anyone they visited them or they visited that night. If a player he's surveilling targets him, he'll learn the effects of the ability they performed.
Wincon - Eliminate all threats to Town
Day 5 starts.
You have 48 hours to decide on an elimination.

Re: Fargo Mafia [DAY 5]
at this stage in the game, i think it's worth it to do a partial claim:
one of the abilities that i have (which i can now no longer use, hence why i'm outing this) is a protective role. i protected michelle last night, so i'm pretty sure the wolves tried to hit her without realizing that a protective role was alive
