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?
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.
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.
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.
