a) They think Im jester but Im doc. They dont attack me. I'm allowed to heal all day every day
b) They think Im doc and Im doc. Im eventually attacked, and killed. No harm no foul, you see me flip doctor and analyze my stances finally.
c) They think Im jester king and im jester king. I exist til the end game. Maybe I live. Maybe I die. You probably eventually lynch me. Treecko shrieks in delight for being right.
d) they think Im doc and Im jester king. They attack me. I die. You laugh all day about how I almost won by 1 last second vote but now I lose alone.
Now lets consider the other thing that could be true:
2) I am doc. I scumread Pringles but as the lynch got closer to the end I genuinely felt doubt in that scumread due to the reactions I was seeing from him. I express this doubt. I do everything in my power to shift the votes off of what I view as a mislynch onto another person that isnt Pringles and that isnt Banana. I figure if it has to come down to the 2 of us Id rather die, because my role is to SAVE ANOTHER TOWN PLAYER. My action is at night, but THAT IS MY ACTUAL LITERAL JOB. So I'm willing to die to sacrifice myself to save what I viewed as a town player. I was wrong - because either MY TOWN GAME IS SHIT AND IM BAD AT READING PEOPLE AND MY DAY 1 READS IN PARTICULAR ARE ALWAYS BAD - or perhaps Pringles got a green rolecard and didnt know he was scum - in that instance my read was RIGHT. But we dont know. But thats why I did it. I was fulfilling my role.
There is no scenario 3) banana is neutral evil. I would have lost on being lynched. You could argue that I gambled and that my gamble paid off - but bro thats literally a gamethrow to taunt without voting Pringles if I was neutral evil as my death instantly puts this game into a L for me. So if you're willing to believe I'd gamethrow, something I've NEVER done in forum mafia (with an extensive i dunno like 50+ game career?) then by all means believe I'm evil.
