BOTC/BOTF Discussion Thread 2

IMO it makes sense for Savant to learn either two true statements or two false statements in a vortox game
in both cases it yields false info, since the savant is being told exactly one of the two is true

but I’m assuming their choice was in part a balance decision

i think your suggestion is arguably more balanced. but something something meaning of false

NYAAAAAAAAAAAA if I am told “Here are statements X and Y. Exactly one of them is true.” and then both X and Y are true, then the overall thing I’ve been told is false, and the Vortox ability is functioning as written

my ability is still yielding false info! one can argue it’s also yielding true info in some sense (though I wouldn’t), but the Vortox ability is “Townsfolk abilities yield false info” not “Townsfolk abilities yield entirely false info”

See the actual reasoning is that savant is actually learning 2 separate pieces of information, and one is already false. Since all pieces of information learned from the ability must be false, only the true statement becomes false

I kind of think the ruling is slightly silly but. Oh well

This is also why Barista sobered Savant receives 2 true statements

i think the fact that barista can ping math (outside of the droisoners of the world getting blocked by it) is really funny. like barista sobered savant pinging math and barista sobered ft hitting its red herring pinging math
