In a previous life, I used to ask myself the very same question.

Good luck village, do your best, or failing that, do what you can.

Melrose, your thoughtful gift of single malt whisky along with the SS Ozymandius, is very much appreciated….

i should be the last one to disclose my own role, since tomorrow knows it already and can verify i am not impersonating a separate one.

I agree, you should not reveal your role for the time being.

Well DP is only clean if Tomorrow isn't a wolf - a lucky day 1 infect of the Seer could make them both wolves but it would mean TechGod is clean.

I'm not infected - besides, if I HAD been, it would have been monumentally stupid of me to just come out and tell everyone to lynch Plutonius.

Between my use of the SS Ozymandius in the last game and it's disembarking this game, as you will have noticed by now, I was able to scrounge enough scotch bottles to make some rather monumental additions. The vessel - for those who haven't seen it - now resembles the Maersk Alabama and is filled with containers of, of course, 30 year Highland Park.

Yum.

Please permit me to compliment you - lavishly - on the amply stocked state of the SS Ozymandius - a worthy and fitting tribute to the chandler's profession.

right now it would seem the wolfies hav a pretty good handle on the game, but looking at the numbers, it might actually be a good idea to come out with the roles.
the major draw back is that the guard gets basically a two days (nights) shelf life before they are toast, assuming the wolves target them as a priority.
but the payoff could be pretty good.

situation right now:
11 players
2 wolves +1 infection (likely already in play)

based on the thread we have these roles in play:

rick: scavenger, then hunter, power spent
ravenvii: leech, now soother, power spent
techgod: undertaker
tomorrow: seer, then soother, now no powers

sythas: ?
moyank: ?
dontpanic: ?
Melrose: ?
anjinha: ?
comeagain: ?
fenris: ?

village powers still unassigned:

guard (core) the only one certain to be around

stalwart
thug
executioner

soother
oracle
seeker
stretcher
collapser
blocker
necromancer
die-hard
judge

if every one buys in on the going public strategy, i think we put the wolves in a tight spot and reopen the game

At least I won't loose my power with the leech and swapper gone.

I'm the guard. First night Protected DP, second night protected myself, third night protected SS. Obviously I will not tell last night.

:D i think you should have come out at the end!

well, with the guard identity blown, i think it is best to go ahead with the all-out strategy.
i will declare last, since tomorrow already knows my role, so it works as a fail-safe for the WW to tell the truth.

fenris,
my reasoning basically is that -based on what we have been told- we know one of the ww was the soother and is now the seeker.
obviously they cannot say that, so they have to guess one of the other general/village exclusive powers. i have one of those, so if they say that one they are bust. the check on me is that tomorrow already knows , so i cannot lie.
the added bonus is that behind the scene shenanigans -which typically help the ww- are harder to puil-off if anyone knows the powers at play.

in addition if we have one of the ww exclusive, the same reasoning applies to two ww.

plus, if a ww needs to fake a role, they'll try to wait as long as possible, to diminish the risk of getting caught. so there is information in there too.
 
i also think it is likely already in play.
so i am guessing the thug?

i still think it is worth to go all out,especially with the guard outed

If it wasn't in play before, it's definitely in play now that the seer has outed himself and lost his power.

I'm going to place a vote for anjinha right now to break the tie. And obviously for self defense.

This only holds true, and is helpful, if you are not infected...

What the heck are you still doing alive?? :p

no, it holds true even if i were infected (which i am not).

there are still 3 wolves out there, 2 of them are the kami and the alpha, one might or not be infected (depending on pluto's status).
All-out might flush them out or, in the worst case, severely limit they ability to manouver in the shadow.

the downside is that they might know not to infect the stalwart (if infection is not in play) or not to attack the thug. the remaining powers are not a big deal to out at this point, in my opinion
 
Moyank24 and your role is?

It may or may not be something that may or may not be useful for the wolves to know. ;)

I'd like to remind everyone how DP talked everyone (well, almost everyone) into not voting for him even after he was outed, so we have to remember that he could have ulterior motives for asking everyone else to out themselves without doing so himself....

Frankly, if I was the guard I wouldn't have outed myself.

You're right, it holds true. What I mean is that Tomorrow being able to confirm your role is only useful to prove you aren't lying. Which is kind of meaningless if you are infected.
 
Actually its more than that

Not might! They will know not to infect the Stalwart and not to attack the Thug! That's a big help to the wolves if the infection hasn't been used yet.

Yeah the others aren't a big deal but I'm trying to decide why you think its a good idea for those two to be outed. It could be that it really is better for the village to out them or it could be we got really unlucky and the Seer was infected day 1 and scanned a wolf and they decided to sacrifice Pluto to out the rest of the village.
