    The Arsonist Ploy

    Instead of checking Ganondorf, I propose we ally ourselves with him through alternative means.

    One of our Hookers blocks Ganondorf and leaves the following message:

    phew, that was a lot of work.

    Okay, so if Ganon is the Arsonist, he will immediately do everything that is outlined above. Not only that, he will know that Suicidalnoob is mafia because of the similar formatting and sentence structure of the death note he gave to suicidaln00b, so he won't ignite.

    The only problem arises if he ISN'T arsonist.
    If he's town, he will probably tell the entire town. What do we lose, assuming town believes Ganondorf?

    1) Well, the town will know that the Mafia thought this guy was arsonist.
    2) Town knows that mafia is a team of smart players (at least one).
    3) Town can effectively clear 5~ names depending on how many we choose to put on the list.

    I think the benefits of having an arsonist work with us for the rest of the game far outweigh the risks. What say you?

    Could it be something other than a thief finding guns? That's exactly the situation I'm in. Only difference is I'll pick up Blacksmith support... if he feels like revealing.

    Or at least say it was an unlimited use gun, making him the GF and not 3 other possible roles.

    Vigi is 6 shot (or remaining shots)

    If he says it's a GF gun, it may lead them very quickly to thinking that it's the traitor.

    Alright, I'm going to have to read up on some rules and modify this death note.

BG or Mafioso...
    BG, Mafioso, and Blacksmith. Thieves can steal the items made by blacksmiths from the blacksmith as well as from anyone who received the item. Sadly, because your gun was stolen night 1, stealing a blacksmith gun was only possible by targeting the blacksmith since thieves steal before he gives the item.
    Why would the BS info be sad? If that were the case, I could also be the Blacksmith to him? I'm not sure exactly what you mean by informing me of the fact that the gun was stolen from me and not a blacksmith?

    From what you've told me, faking as blacksmith is still viable so long as he keeps stealing from me.
    You can claim to be blacksmith no problem... But you can't claim anything else and say the gun the blacksmith gave you was stolen

    aka, the thief knows you have to be mafioso, bodyguard or blacksmith instead of anyone that got a gun from blacksmith. (of course, that is if he remembers that stealing happens before items are given)
    Can a blacksmith gun be used in as a day shot or is that only for level 2 vigilante's?
    only lvl 2 vigs

    btw we only have one hooker thanks to yayap so what are we going to do with what would appear to be our most important chess piece? And yes we should check ganondorf regardless

    Re: The Arsonist Ploy

    I'm fine with Lysergic's Hooker plan. Mine is in no way dependent on silencing Oops. And to be honest, I think I'll only run my gambit if he goes after me. Anyone else, I'll just go with the situation.

    Also, we have to not completely ignore each other during day. At some point, we're at least going to have to scuffle once. And including each other in our own scum lists isn't a bad idea. Just not all of us, and always with an assortment of others.

    Which is why I insulted suicidaln00b in the middle of day chat.

    You mean us? You want the arsonist to douse me, Elixir, or suicidal? Wat.

    We both jabbed at him, he was easy. I meant the rest of us about the rest of us. I can say that I consciously avoided you during day, which I shouldn't have done and likely contributed to Oops' analysis.

    Not actually douse, a safeguard if ganondorf is town, so town sees someone from oops list makes them cleared. but never mind, just a thought.

    Wonderful plan. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and watching the pieces fall into place.
    But remember if he is NOT arson then we should include 2 mafia members towards the bottom, if he IS arson and it becomes confirmed, we can just send him a new target list.
    And don't forget to edit the note. (it says day 1 instead of day 2 or w/e)
