How to teach a brother to play social deduction games?

Non-killing neutral…

I’d rather not thanks

Bad memories

My first game I kept yelling out about a list that people are proven and how who’s likely to be what

We need a memory chart now

What’s a memory chart

How I learned to play social deduction games is to thrust myself straight forward into a thorn pit that is a new game. I take in all of the knowledge and then try to indue the pain that is a the thorn pit.

But seriously the best way to learn a social deduction game, in this day and age, is probably just play the game. To a new player what you need to know is the concept of “Trust no one”. You must always ask the question, “why is this occurring and can I influence this debate with my information” “do I support what is going on, or do I disagree with it” whitest If you are evil need to mimick how other people would react in situations like this. You need to make people trust you so that no one will doubt you.

Standard setup Ive seen in live mafia games is a sheriff, a doctor, and sometimes with a 1 shot vigi and a one shot loveriser (for them ships)

Recreational mafia ofc, not competetive

Also a good test I’ve come across about getting people to think more about FM style of thinking

TOL, two people die n1 with different deathnotes, one is a paladin, and someone d2 says “looks like the n1 erad.”
What can you infer about this person’s alignment?
