Look, can we not ignore the thunderdome?
Like, yes, it is technically possible that it isnāt actually a thunderdome but ignoring it is bay play.
Noā¦ No.
I refuse to believe I misread chloe and jane.
And also this would suggest that my roleblocker meant nothing.
And also still doesnāt solve in me and sulit.
Why it was a bad lynch: On some plane of reality, I can see where the townās logic in leaving JDS alive made sense. He was a known quantity, they thought they could control him, and they thought they had a good beat on another player in the game and figured they could get two for the price of one.
In practice, though, this strategy is fraught with peril and can backfire in so many different ways. Thereās always the danger of mislynching, which is what happened here. Possibly even worse is that you leave a wolf role alive at night. In a role madness game like the Season 6 setup was, night actions are an important aspect of the game and you want to be able to corner the wolves and/or clear people through them, if possible. Leaving an all-but-outed wolf alive allows him to use his ability at night, especially since thereās no guarantee that a roleblocker is present or even on the townās side. The same goes for a town vig.
Indeed, here JDS carried the factional kill on N2, and it went through. Michelle, the town roleblocker, blocked ~Rosen, another wolf. Had JDS been lynched, there was a possibility that ~Rosen would have had to carry the kill himself. A town player would have been saved, ~Rosen would have been in big trouble, and the town would have been in that much better of a position if they had just taken out the wolf handed to them on a silver platter.
This is the downside of infolynching, especially in a setup like this. The goal is to reduce the wolvesā numbers, so they can do less stuff at night, and they have that much less voting power in the thread.
Lessons learned: Mostly covered in the last section, but for emphasis: Infolynching is bad, just kill the wolfiest player . In 99% of scenarios, if thereās an outed (or mostly outed) wolf, you lynch them. The other 1% covers weird variants like there being two wolves left and you need to lynch a specific role in order to stave off an immediate loss, and this scenario didnāt cover that.

I plan to vote PKR at EOD and have sulit be the cw for whatever the shit ability gorta is softing
anyway for NOT VERY SUBTLE MECHANICAL REASONS i request that the counterwagon is NOT poisoned
uhhh
vigging them is fine i guess even tho im p sure we dont have anyone who can vig it given arctics role
actually it probably doesnt matter that much if i think about it for more than 15 seconds i just want to make wolves think i have a role and am not just a miller vt
In mathematical terms we have a ~100% chance to get a hit between sulit/PKR within the next two days
We can get one this phase if gorta is softing what I think he is

I feel like PKR is almost always a roleblocker who targeted Gorta regardless of his alignment (like, he could totally be Mafia Roleblocker! but Cent/katze only really makes sense if he is a roleblocker)
so the question is more ādo I think heās lying about being a darkvoterā
/how likely is it that thereās something else going on and theyāre V/V
why are you manually liking my post saying that iāmg oing to vote to end your life
