Datisi's University [professors' pets PT]

[Dannflor]

I still haven't read super carefully for PRs so I suppose I can do that more before the weekend is over.

[furtiveglance]

This might be controversial but I don't see how knowing the 3p wincon will help us massively

Also, blind roleblocking seems a little unnecessary/shot in the dark

My preferred option would be to use 5 on a PR check and give 29 to Dannflor just to hoard, hopefully for a bonus kill tomorrow night

[Dannflor]

i don't mind that option,

although i do think blind roleblocking might have some value given people are more likely to use their PRs earlier in the game than later?

just based on all the mech strategizing

[Titus]

I think hoarding the points on Dann is good.

[Titus]

I strongly prefer knowing what people will do.

[Titus]

Whemestar kills jjh
Furtiveglance snoops Ranger
Dannfloor banks 29 spr

Subject to chance

[Titus]

Subject to change, my bad

[Datisi]

noted!

[Dannflor]

I’m good with that

So the main question is whether I bank 19 or 29 depending on whether we want to find out the 3p win condition?

[furtiveglance]

Should I snoop Ranger? It's possible that she's a self-watcher, similar to what mastina was in Datisi's Cafe.

I'd rather stick with the original idea of Aristeia I think.

furtiveglance snoops Aristeia

[Dannflor]

yeah that would be my preference

I can go either way on the 3p thing

I guess probably I would prefer to just hoard points but that's because I can't imagine a 3p win condition that would cause us to play differently. but that's not because there can't be it's just because my imagination is bad

If there's an extra (unclaimed) kill tonight then they'll probably be Serial Killer or similar

Something like a Manipulator (knows who we are and wins if alive when we would win) would be problematic, but not right at the moment

A Jester/Fool type role would only cause problems if they won, in which case meh, well done them (and if we discovered this was the wincon we wouldn't be able to do much about it)

Cult would be a major issue and be good to know about - but if there's cult then we're probably screwed anyway

So yeah I think just leave the 3p thing until later in the game (probably when we're nearing ELO if we get that far)

[Titus]

We don't know when elo is if we don't know the wincon.

[furtiveglance]

Titus, I'd really rather have the points for another kill

The 3p might take care of itself

[WhemeStar]

Yeah idrc about wincon

Maybe it helps us though but oh well

[Datisi]

for transparency (and my convenience), current night actions are:

- whemestar kills jjh927
- furtiveglance receives 5 SPR points, snoops aristeia
- dannflor receives 29 SPR points

[furtiveglance]

looks good to me, I like the poetic justice of wheme killing jjh

[Titus]

Looks good

[Dannflor]

so she’s a JK basically

[Dannflor]

More like a doctor

[furtiveglance]

Doctor and Rolestopper

[Dannflor]

well that’s a NK target

[Titus]

If we can make her look scummy enough, we can fake a vig on her.

[Dannflor]

I don’t think any of us should ever fake claim vig though
