I'm not sure what it gets us
It's lower variance that what we have right now. Right now we have zero info. I think 2 wolves or 1 wolf + TC has to be what we're working with. 3 wolves or 2+TC seems like a lot. 3+TC is ridiculous.

So really 2 or 1+TC means the game is 33% wolf. If we agree that's a fair assumption, then as a villager I have a 2 in 5 chance of lynching a wolf, or 1 in 5 if it's wolf+tc. Same goes for all other villagers.

I think giving info will allow us to narrow down a wolf and have a much better than 30-40% chance of accurate lynch.

There is also the possibility there isn't a saint.

I think this is a game of mechanics > tone/posts. Everyone is stuck in ww mindset. Stuck said so. Mass claiming makes sense to me mechanics wise.

Rather than just Villager role, I think we should all claim role + saint. Then we can decide what to do from there.

I also think wolves will be slower at claiming than villagers. They will need to assess their best escape plan.

I'm going to claim very soon. Probably in 10 minutes. Brace yourselves.

I'm not really sure I understand what you're driving at here.
You want us to claim our actual role and saint at the same time?

These two posts hurt my brain. Like the first one feels villagery to me, very much so.

The second one bothers me because claiming feels like such an advantage to the wolves, and I'm like super concerned about getting played here.

What good does it do for us to do that?

How is it any different than everyone claiming their role and then saint just claiming villager?

And more importantly what do we actually gain by this whole process?

Show me a fake example of what people would see, and what we could do with it.

because then the wolves know the saint is a villager. and if there is only 1 other villager claim then wolves have a 50% shot.

Sure but they know anyway...

Like

irtm: watcher + saint
bread: villager + saint
house: tracker + saint
gad: villager + saint
turtle: viller + saint
hardcore: villager + saint


How is this different than:
irtm: watcher
bread: villager
house: tracker
gad: villager
turtle: villager
hardcore: villager

Since all villagers will claim villager, all wolves will claim villager, saint will claim villager, TC will (probably?) claim villager.

resistance to this is really bugging me and giving me wolf vibes.

here is an example:

Gadarene - wolf
ihcjay - wolf
housenuts - villager
iraisetoomuch - villager
Donat3llo - tracker
hardcoreUFO - saint


housenuts: i am villager/saint
irtm: i am villager/saint
don: i am tracker/saint
hardcore: i am villager/saint

wolves.....hmmmm what should we claim?

gad: i am villager/saint
jay: i am villager/saint

ok, well now we know 5 people have claimed villager/saint and it's only possible for there to be 3 villa+1 saint so someone of that group is lying.

we know don is tracker, because saint doesn't claim saint + role other than villager.

so Don can look either left or right and provide info. villagers can all make Don ringleader.

all wolves know now is that Don is not saint. So they have an increased chance of finding saint, but both of them need to be on the same page, and that's difficult.

that's just one example.

Anyways, that is my proposal to sharing of information and trying to figure this out. If y'all think simply trying to figure it out from posts/tone is right, I strongly disagree.

I think I'm the only one who is possibly ok with it.
I'm just asking you to expand upon your thoughts since they seem sorta useless for parts of it at least.

And this still really the exact same as 'anyone who is not a villager, saint or a wolf claim your role' lol

If it is then we can proceed one way and if its not we can proceed a different way

Yeah, I'm not sure a wolf ever really goes through all of the trouble to write out this post, with scenarios and outcomes.

Welcome to the village House!
