atm Jolt cannot win - we have him as good as in chains - but Pisuf is too much of a liability. If we lynch him for the first time today, he can still kill Blackadder in the duel (who I actually believe for the moment - the Iffo situation is too hairy to do nothing, but still very much an unknown quantity) and CA becomes far more manageable when brought closer to mortality.

unvote: vote: CountArach

This is a strong argument and one that should be considered. Jolt CAN be blocked. We've seen this happen and it works. CA CANNOT be blocked, we've also seen this happen.

But what if the roleblocker (whoever that is...) is killed, then Jolt will get one shot at one of the settlers, a shot that could matter in the end...

And that still leaves Iffo to worry about...

Do as you wish. The way boudica proposed, I remain neutralized and CA is killed sooner. All it takes is this day (CA lynch one), and next night. If the roleblocker survives next night, then CA is killed and even if on night two the roleblocker is killed, I'll be dead the day after.

In any case, since CA has won powers through killing Sasaki, I sincerely recommend that Blackadder DOES NOT accept CA's duel. Who knows if he wins more power and becomes invincible to lynching.

Since I'm already bound, I may as well render the town a service and be used to kill Blackadder on the safe side (Since I gain no powers from killing), and you get to see whether CB has a role or not.

So Challenge: Captain Blackadder

You have two choices. Continue to accept CA's duel, be certainly killed and risk a new increase in his powers OR reject his duel, accept mine and die with the certainty that who killed you won't become more powerful. I still get to kill another settler and will probably be lynched in the end so.. It's your choice CB.

Unaccept Count Arach

I have to go to bed so i will come back in the morning and see what to do.

I agree that we should have someone else duel blackadder. He's claimed a 1, so practically anyone should beat him, and we could learn something about their role as well. I suggest Lord Winter.

The more I think about the 'lynching order' the more I become convinced that we stand a greater risk of screwing this up if we try to game it. We cannot control what these people do and they do not share the same objectives as us, so we should not count on them being willing to cooperate in duels or lynchings in any way. We could have two people set up to duel each other, and then one could Reject the duel 1 minute before the day phase is over. There are too many killers left and we simply shouldn't take risks like this.

Let's keep it simple and lynch Jolt, since we know for a fact that he's guilty. If we can get more info on CB through duel, great, but we shouldn't count on it.

The problem is what if he is a 5? You'll send someone to kill him and that someone might end up dead. I have one of the highest duel ratings in the game and whether he's faking it or not, he'll be killed.

If he has a five then we know he's lying and we'll lynch him next round. I'd rather learn something about someone we don't know about than have you fight him.

I think its best to lynch CA first to make him lose a life. Jolt can be blocked, CA cannot. Roleblocker just blocks Jolt while we lynch CA. If CA kills the blocker, we only risk 1 more death before both are gone anyway.
