That's true. Chalk it up to lack of thought behind that vote I guess. So what do we do with him, then? Waste our night actions to get him killed?

No? How? What? There aren't statistical odds for scum deciding to attack someone they know is protected. And you are talking about probability anyway.
Yep, probability. When you think about it in that sense:

-There is a 1/40 chance GH chooses Beskar to be protected, and a 1/40 chance nationalists choose Beskar to be killed. For both of those to occur at the same time, it's a 1/1600 chance.

-There are at least 4 insurgents in the game. 2 of these are Japanese, the ones concerned with the leaking. There are roughly 10 people out of 40 who knew about the protection. The chance that a player is Japanese is 1/20, and the chance that that player was in the group of 10 is 1/20 X 1/4 = 1/80.

Of course, this is a real, live game. So probability is not always applicable - due to behaviors of individual players, certain among them are more high-profile (like Beskar) and therefore more or less likely to be chosen for certain actions. At the same time, there's a greater chance for insurgents to try to get themselves positioned as officers.

Any way you slice it, it's more likely that this was not just a coincidence.

Not really. I would vote him if I got a scum vibe from him. I just thought it was kind of funny that Romanic still hasn't figured out what exactly happened there.
