This is about mechanics of the game.

You couldn't kill Lunatic after visiting Wylted unless Wylted and Whiteflame were both same faction.

GP for a second totally ignore reads and BKs behaviour this DP (the defeatism is a towntell but maybe he is referencing a fakeclaim being hopeless).

Why exactly would Austin give Town a 1x motivator that can end up.giving mafia double powers?

If cop gre 2 investigations there are 2 different roles that can roleblock him. Same with tracker.

Why didn't joebob motivate me ASAP NP1 after the DP1 events?

How can BK visit Wylted and even with motivation kill Lunatic the next NP? He'd have to kill Wylted twice in the same NP due to the restriction on mafia roles.

How can BK use power NP4 on a kill night where he also killed?

Joebob can have passive ascetic and this would maintain through a kill. Joebob must have visited Lunatic NP2, which he'd argue he motivated if tracked.

Joebob kills Lunatic and then proceeds to absorb ijb's factional kill. Joebob asks over and over if Barney can promise he will investigate BK and not Joebob maybe for wisdom in hopes he investigated joebob.

Wait nvm that's kind of genius.

Joebob visits Luna and his ascetic means he can't be tracked. I claim I'm roleblocked, Barney claims it same NP, whiteflame is a dead roleblocker. That would have been mayhem.

Why are you not voting Korea? I’m wondering as to why considering he avoided your questions several times.

Wait a minute...

Wylted and ijb can't kill on odd nights. Therefore they kill on even.

How was I roleblocked by Wylted on NP2?

Can you reiterate fully to me what 'can only use on non-killing nights' means?

Say team 1 kills on even nights.

On an even night:

-1 player can perform the factional kill (forfeiting any abilities in the process, unless it modifies the factional kill)
-The other player can use their ability if it isn't used to set up the factional kill; otherwise, they may not use their ability

On an odd night:

-Both players may use their ability as usual

If motivated, can a scum kill who they didn't visit previously?

If absorbing factional kill of other faction can they still.use active power on same night they kill.

Yes and no respectively (except if their active power modifies their nightkill, such as a Strongman or Ninja).

Okay so the only thing that mechanically proves it, is that joebob is ascetic andnBK can't turn him ascetic on same night as he kills.

The Luna kill doesn't vindicate BK, the joebob no result while Barney dies does.

All I can say is that I'm never running multiball or non-standard factional kills again :/

Is there really no way I can convince you BK isn't playing like a normal town vig? Even after he has yet to answer my question? If so, I will throw the game and let BK win.

I'm not complaining, I just have been thoroughly mindfucked by the intricate mechanics here.

It's actually a humbling experience. I'm used to things being way too nonsense or basic here.

Credit to GP for not joining me voting BK fast enough.

How did BKnuse an active type of role to shield joebobnfrom my investigation on same night he killed if other 3 mafia all have 'can only use on non-killing nights'?

Just explain how that's even possible and after that I'll explain why I've Townread BK all game long and vice versa for Joebob.

GP let me explain something and IK I have to be humble because I fucked up hard this DP but please realise you're not paying as much attention as me this game:

There is only the possibility of a passive role working while the same scum member kills. This means if BK is scum, you think he passively roleblocks cop every even NP.

Joebob has ascetic passive defense powers and that fits the bot Defender so well.

I answered it.

Explain how BK could do something active NP4 to disrupt me investigating Joebob while also killing Barney if all other 3 Mafia have restrictions onmtheir powers barring them to use active powers when NKing.

If you can't do that, you should agree it's impossible BK is scum.

Can you honestly say BK is playing town vig. Just answer that at least.
