Hi Balki
Hi!

Do you think we should have everyone say tomorrow something like: "If I were some kind of Cop, I would have visited player X and received this result" so that we will clearly have that information to analyze once the various Cops die and are revealed to us?

Given all of the potential cops at play, I don't think the bad guys will be able to use all of those hypo cop results very effectively, and the info for town will be quite valuable when our various cops flip.

Please discuss.
What drawbacks?
How about doing it more forecasting... half way through today.
Thai would limit the cops' abilities to change their minds.

The forecasting plan is very very bad, in my opinion -- bad guys have their own night actions that will be much more effective if they know what everyone will do if they are cop..

But having a hypo reveal after each night means we will definitely have our cop scan results to consider once each cop is flipped.

Downside is that it could help bad guys identify who is actually cop to inform their night actions, but I feel like that is much harder for them to do in this setup where there are so many kinds of cops and things that mess with cop results. I just don't think that a mass set of cop hypo claims will narrow the field much for the bad guys.

hey all, i hope we can have a nice clean game, without any murders, since I just got this shirt washed! blood is really hard to get out of fabric, or so I hear, and I'd like avoid further hassle! Think of the poor morticians, having to spend so much on a new, clean suit should I get murdered... how unfair it would be!

But it wouldn't gain much, really.
No forecasting.

But I am liking balki's plan.

I think Balki's plan works, but each cop's result should be modified to TRUE or FALSE so that there's no information being given about which sort of cop is which.

Addictive Cop - INNOCENT=TRUE, GUILTY=FALSE
Macho Cop - INNOCENT=TRUE, GUILTY=FALSE
Naive Cop - INNOCENT=TRUE, GUILTY=FALSE
Methodical Cop - INNOCENT=TRUE, GUILTY=FALSE
Parity Cop - Same=TRUE, different=FALSE, no result=FALSE
Vanilla Cop - Vanilla=TRUE, Not vanilla=FALSE
SJS Cop - Cop=TRUE, Not cop=FALSE
Psychic Cop - Dark=TRUE, not dark=FALSE

I like this amendment.

What do you mean by their defender?

Like, you will advise town not to chop them because they are a new player, or something else?
