Sorry for bailing on this game. I got super swamped right when it started. I had asked for a sub but then the mafia team killed me anyway. Thanks guys.

Lol idk if you read in spec chat Marmot, but we were doing the same thing, just trying to get each other to F3.

Lol so both of you pretended to SR each other when you both really TR’ed each other? Lol.

I have a question, is the self-voting rule specifically a rule that you don't want people to break, or merely a mechanic that we can use as we wish?

The reason I ask. I am considering a strategy where I choose to self-vote in a Final-5 scenario, or encourage another player to do so. That person will survive until Final-3 due to being unkillable, and also be unchoppable on that final day. In that situation, the game becomes a 1v1 between the other two players, with that final immune player being the kingmaker. If that kingmaker is mafia, I believe that town would automatically win. If that kingmaker is town, they are the person who decides if their team wins or not based on their vote.

It's a strategy I'm interested in proposing, but I don't want to if it's against the spirit of the game, which is why I want to check in. I know it says that self-voting is prohibited, but this strategy takes advantage of the punishment dolled out for anyone who does break that rule.

Here was a strategy I came up with early on that I ran by G-Man, but we both agreed it was outside of the spirit of the game.
