we need the cop results. the cop could hard claim to out some results. but then they die or get anticlaimed and we get no more. we could do public hypothetical claims every day, but mafia has 2 weapons against the cop - anti-claim and strongman. they can neutralize two candidates in 1 night. so imo, the safest thing is for the cop, and for the VTs to all provide hints about their peeks. the VTs dont have peeks obviously, but they make up ones. and then they hint about it, think about it carefully, try to appear as the cop to the mafia, maybe change their play a bit to provide cover for the cop. once the cop dies we can ISO them and hopefully piece together their hints

this is the minimum number of people required to guarantee that at least 1 VT will be chocolate and we will get the protection. on d1 it will be 5 people. so basically my suggestion is for everyone to vote for 5 people unofficially as the towniest. their top 5 townreads. at the end of the day we tally those unofficial votes. and the top 5 players use chocolate and protect whoever they want. everyone else chooses vanilla and allows the cop to get a reliable peek on them. (is my suggestion). the entire reason for this is to allow the cop to get reliable peeks into the PoE, instead of wondering if a “non-vanilla” peek means mafia or a townie who just decided to do whatever they want and not work with their team. the cop can already get trustworthy green peeks, but this way they also get trustworthy red peeks. non-vanilla peek on a player that wasn’t supposed to do that = confirmed wolf. we’d also be able to see the wolves unofficial chocolate votes on other wolves. we’d have more info to track them and pair them once we solve mid and late game

I want to bring the most emphasis to this. I think it’s very important for the VTs to remember to not make themselves blatant VTs in the eyes of the mafia.
The Cop will never be blatant VT - the only way for that to happen is if they lie about their peeks, which risks griefing their team hard. So like, if you are VT, and you hint about peeking a player vanilla, and then you push them - you are outing as VT, because if you were the real cop, you’d know that player is peeked town.
So even if you didn’t rand the cop, that doesn’t mean you get to just not think about the cop and play a selfish VT game. Please be mindful of what your team needs of you! Please don’t play this as a Mountaious, it’s not!
the mafia will be monitoring the thread every day after N1 to scan for the cop. they will dedicate a lot of effort into cop hunting. please think about it very carefully. everyone - cop and VT. even though we are the “good guys”, uninformed majority, in a setup like this, optimal play requires us to be speaky and deny information to our opponents, as if we were mafia. of course dont go too hard on that too please, FPSing is almost always griefing your team. lies being pushed too far usually griefs your team. just a bit of misdirection in moderation is what’s required

Using Strawberry is literally useless IMO. You’re never going to get anything out of it when your “opponent” is “the collective trust that town has on the promise that they are about to make Today”. Mafia can’t even do anything about it.
I proposed this idea at the signups thread, and I still think we should do this.

Hm… Hey, I have a selfish solution to this issue.
Do you think I should reveal what my solution is?
(Note: “I” myself think this is a bad idea.)

Willing to give Zone a very slim townlean here and it’s something I agree with too.
I have a further suggestion as well. Who wants to be checked tonight?

Is this pl going to actually follow plans or nah? I’ll follow the consensus plan if everybody else participates too. But if people aren’t going to listen then why bother?
