Why not make this even more interesting?

Vote: LASER97

One of you can hammer me, or Pooka can finally stop wasting our time and make a decision.

Lifthrasil: I think if Pookina's claim were false, the real Vig would have shot her by now.
avatar
Cadaver747: No.
OK. This requires explanation. Why wouldn't the real Vig shoot Pookina, if her claim were false?

avatar
Carradice: If Pookie shoots the Bulletproof, it leads to essentially a no-lunch.
But it would net us a proven Scum. If someone is proven Bulletproof, that someone must be Scum!

Also @Joe: will play go to the action phase even if the elimination fails? The PR says: "... That player will be immediately eliminated and play will proceed to the action phase." This can be read as conditional on the elimination. What if that is prevented?

@Carradice: also, saving the Shot of the Dayvig for another Day isn't possible if Pookina really is the Dayvig. If she saves her shot, she will be killed Tonight. We can't prevent the kill, because Scum have a Strongarm. So you urging the claimed Dayvig to hold back looks quite bad. Especially coupled with your implication that uncovering the bulletproof scum would be bad for us. I don't like your reasoning at all!

To be clear: I'm not saying 'use the shot immediately'. But Pookina has to use it Today or we will most likely lose it.

SirPrimalform: You are right that the odds of hitting the bulletproof mafioso are low, but I've been getting strange vibes from LASER like he's trying to draw the shot rather than get lynched.
This, however, is cause for concern. So shooting Laser might be bad. Let's wait for Joe's reply what happens when the Vig-Shot is foiled.

Lifthrasil: OK. This requires explanation. Why wouldn't the real Vig shoot Pookina, if her claim were false?
Are you absolutely serious right now?
I like how out of the blue, two people vote and Laser is now at L-1. Let me try this.

@GameRager, if you don't take your vote off Laser, I will kill you.
LET'S NOT HAMMER RIGHT NOW!

Cadaver747: Are you absolutely serious right now?
Yes. Of course. If Pookina's claim is false, she is scum. A Vig usually has the concern that he might accidentally shoot Town. But having a proven scum target, there is no reason to hold back that shot. Especially since counter-claiming just would get the Vig killed in the Night. What's your reasoning?

And this fits SPF's concern. So Laser most likely is the Bulletproof Scum. Self-voting is almost never a pro-Town move.

supplementscene: Absolutely shocking play by Pooka, you're meant to hold that power back until everyones piling in on you or when you have a very strong scum scent that no one else can smell.
I can't predict when I'll be offed by the mafia, can I?
avatar
supplementscene: @Pooka what you should really do is shoot the 3rd player on your wagon, ie Liftrasil Because Laser will almost certainly be the lynch tomorrow
Is there even a wagon on Pooka right now?

avatar
Cadaver747: OK, but if day shooter will not shoot what are the odds of Mafia sparing him? I say we even lynch the *fake*/not fake shooter even to force a shot and clear his name. But probably not right now, since not all expressed their opinion yet.
Oh yeah, if Pooka's telling the truth then he's probably going to die tonight regardless. As I said, I'm not talking about saving the bullet for later because there is likely no "later" for Pooka. This is entirely about the fact that a lynch is more effective than a shot.

Look at it this way:
We have two ways of ending the day. One is effective against any player, one is effective against all players apart from one member of the mafia. It makes sense to use the one that doesn't have a chance of failure.
It feels unlikely, but if LASER is town then it doesn't really matter which one we used the outcome of a dead townie is the same. If he's scum then one of the options has a possible failure rate while the other one doesn't.

avatar
Cadaver747: So I don't see it's a huge risk of no-lynch. Let's imagine that we all have a list of 3 possible Mafia, would you also say *let's not shot any of them, one of them could be bulletproof and it's a no-lynch risk*?
To answer your question: Yes, I would say let's lynch them instead of shooting them.

The value of Pooka's power is not in its strength, it's effectively (as Pooka put it) a supervote. The power is that Pooka gets to unilaterally decide the lynch of the day (but it's slightly weaker than a real lynch). So if we're talking about killing someone by consensus we may as well use an actual lynch because it's stronger.

avatar
Cadaver747: Strange vibes for Laser? Like he was provoking Pooka into shooting him? Making him a possible Bulletproof. Maybe...
Then we'll lynch Laser > Scene > ??? (not Pooka if not fake) / Pooka (if fake). No? I mean I still don't see a problem here.
Yes, if LASER has decided that he's doomed anyway and is bulletproof then he's going to try and draw the shot to get us to waste a day. It kind of feels like that's what's happening, but I'd be interested to hear other reads on the situation.

Lifthrasil: Yes. Of course. If Pookina's claim is false, she is scum. A Vig usually has the concern that he might accidentally shoot Town. But having a proven scum target, there is no reason to hold back that shot. Especially since counter-claiming just would get the Vig killed in the Night. What's your reasoning?
If Pookina's claim is false she is Mafia or a crazy Town willing to attract an assassin. In both ways it would be MUCH more reasonable to ask for a demonstration and then lynch the fake without revealing a role and HELPING THE MAFIA!!!. Lastly, the real shooter have all the rights to shot the impostor but it would not be a good way to make a shot until very last moment.

And you said exactly:

Lifthrasil: "I think if Pookina's claim were false, the real Vig would have shot her by now."
No.

Pookina: I like how out of the blue, two people vote and Laser is now at L-1.
You seem to be forgetting one is Laser himself. Are you trying to say a scum!Laser wants to be lynched or day vigged?

avatar
Pookina: Let me try this.

@GameRager, if you don't take your vote off Laser, I will kill you.
Like you said you'd shoot laser?

I am willing to drop the vote....for now**....BUT if we get too close to deadline and you haven't used your shot I will put it back on to make sure we get a lynch.

(**=To give you a chance, if day vig, to find and get rid of scum)

Unvote Laser97

*Games O' Rager goes off to the dance floor, does a little soft shoe, then goes back to his corner table*
