S-FM 350: Chaotic Executioner

[Gikkle]

Blacksmith: You're correct about that.

Vengeful: I didn't read the last line. You're correct. But assumptions #1 and #2 still remain.

Blackmailer: I don't find it likely that the mafia would waste their power on someone like a dead person. Use it on an influential town and their ability to adapt and pressure people will be diminished significantly. Sure, blackmailer could benefit, but they've already taken the step of not benefitting it. Is benefitting it really their goal and a factor in their decision-making here?

Mayor: All the more reason CE may have not wanted to hand out a mayor role.

If they wanted to fully utilize blackmailer, it's best that it remains hidden.

Mayor could be handed out in hopes it goes to a townie who will get themselves killed.

I don't think that's an optimal use. In fact, come to think of it, considering this setup needs to concentrate votes otherwise non-voters cause a skip, Blackmailer's power is greater than it seems.

Yeah, that's a reason mayor could be handed out for. But that exact argument could apply to most of the roles that CE could hand out. Either killed by mafia, or killed by town. Few exists that are likely to not be given special attention by either alignment.

A blackmailer early on doesn't have as much power since there's more town alive, so one person who has to vote a specific way doesn't mean that much. If I were mafia, I WOULD keep Blackmailer hidden.
