You've got some nerve to be cute considering about 2 hours ago, you commented on a slip I made which I had already pointed out myself and corrected, and have now misread a role PM.

So there could actually be a way to prevent the Sheriff from being reborn.
Drop deputizes X.
We vote out Drop.
We have a town killing role (if one exists) kill X during Night Phase before a new Deputy is made.
However, I don't think this is a smart idea at all. It would also require us to confirm a town killing role exists, and please for the love of god nobody confirm this if you ARE a town killing role.

I think that there might be secret rules in place to prevent the elimination of the Sheriff chain
Just a thought though
This would maybe be something to consider late game, if we have no confirmed townies.
Not now, though. So that's all I'll say on it.
People are going to consider every possibility on Earth since we keep going on about it, but what I had in mind was the Sheriff making the Deputy the person who's about to get lynched that Day. They die before ever being able to become a Sheriff and the next Day comes without a Deputy. Rinse and repeat.
That took you guys a while.
See, I knew what you were putting down, Sheriff, but I was reluctant to just say it since it seemed you were. That's until I saw people just kept talking about it, though.

Huh.... that actually seems to work.
Am I missing something because that's a very solid plan. And if mafia ever wants to make use of the Deputy they'd have to spare Drop until somehow we fumble it. A fumble could only really occur if there were two people neck and neck in the votes and people purposely fucked it over so that the Deputized person was left alive. In which case we could assume anyone who sabotaged the process is scum or SK.

Well yeah. It isn't without weaknesses but I think it is a solid plan.

That's actually a really good plan. Unless anyone comes up with any major hole in it that's been overlooked, we should try going for it.
I guess the biggest risk would be drop nominating then someone pulling a vote last minute?
CornBurrito
Member
I think it is the least risky of the proposed plans though.
I'm sure it'll be fine. This is GAFIA, it never goes down to the wire or anything...
But then Drop can use his double vote
That's a pretty cool plan, Drop.
Down the line, if we continue with this idea and Drop gets NKed, then we no longer have the power to double vote. Is everyone ok with that? I think it's fine. It will play out as if Drop was a Mayor.
Like CornBurrito said, whoever does that would be put under suspicion as a werewolf trying to screw us over. The same goes for a Sheriff who wouldn't go along with the plan and would attempt to deputize someone who wasn't about to get lynched.

Better to lose double voting than constantly having the issue of the Sheriff role to take into consideration.

Under this plan, there never should be a sheriff not named Drop.
Worst case is mafia says fuckit and kills Drop and we lock both sides of the conflict out of having a double vote. Town needs double vote a lot less than mafia I feel.

Simply make last last minute role claims a policy lynch? We need to work around the sheriff role.
CrimsonFist

Anyone doing something to change the lynching target after Drop has elected a deputy can be regarded as scum. It gives us a straightforward cutoff point, so it would be pretty hard to hide an attempt to manipulate things. If Drop gives us a half hour warning or something before electing, that gives time for last minute role claims too, in a way that won't interfere with things.
I'm suspicious of Darryl, although I'm not sure if that's just because he's being aggressive.
That said, just out of curiosity, why would scum want to get the deputy role this early on? It seems to me like it'd be a way to unnecessarily put yourself on the spotlight. I could see it if the intent was to somehow get town's trust by deputizing whoever they want, but I don't think whatever amount of trust that would get you, which wouldn't be much IMO, would be worth it. I don't doubt if anyone had some crazy day-1 deputy scum strategy it could well be Darryl though
Do you want to be deputy?

Lol. Lollllll.
An OMGUS vote? Voting for me because I voted for you? Laughable. You are so obviously scum this game.
Did you interpret what I said as wanting to be deputy? I'm not opposed to the idea, but that wasn't what I meant to imply on that post, I was just seeing if I'd missed anything in Crimson's train of thought.
Thanks kitty, I see your reply and have nothing further for now, enjoy your thanksgiving.

No good tidings for you! I wanted to get a read on you independent of your claim, but I just looked back through the thread and you haven't commented on anything else. Literally not one throwaway line in any of your posts relating to anything other than your claim.
So help us out, anyone standing out to you at the moment? Either as scummy or town? Any notable interactions you'd like to comment on? How do you think deputies should be handled?

Where is Time? I mean if he is in the US then he might have familial obligations, but a check in would be nice.
I'm doing the family dinner then insane shopping thing (my young child wants a paw patrol HQ tower... I hope it's a dog law and not a

As far as reads, I'm still getting to know some of the new folks (or even new to me folk from other season 2 and 3 games). so far there are no glaring changes in behavior.

Yeah we should probably just not post about anything at all.

Can someone link the post on what the sheriff and deputy do? I'm on mobile and diging through the thread is going to be hard.
It's very weird how you try to twist my words into such nonsense. All I said was that we should not lose out of sight what is most important: Lynching wolves.
Ok here's some quick reads, doing the thanksgiving thing. More later.
-I don't trust Xam. The second reveal seems too convenient. Could be fine, but it's a little weird two are so upfront about it.
-Ultron could be scum and baiting sleepwalkers to roleclaim. But why?
-Re: Deputy - fuck this. This is going to bite us in the ass, guaranteed. I'm more inclined to give Drop the power to do what he wants.
- CB seems suspucious, but I don't know why.

Which I am doing. My vote is on a wolf right now.

My vote is on Darryl because he is so passive compared to last game it is jarring. I suspect he is scum because of that.

I'm pretty sure everyone who was really aggressive last game has toned it down a bit. Seems to have burned some out that we had to start over.
I'm chasing inactives
CornBurrito

Possible.
CrimsonFist

There's also been other stuff to focus on, like the role claims and deputy issues, which has been dominating the conversation over accusing others. Now that we're moving away from those, things might get a bit more aggressive.
Zippedpinhead

Possibly, but no one wants to throw a target on their back.
Chasing in-actives is actually a viable strategy for days 1 and 2. A lot of Mafia just want to coast until a couple of days go by
