Actually. If the wolves pick - or are aided to pick - Shasta as their forerunner, we'd have all the reasons to empower him!

A new tradition: The Dead Thread empowers the one villagers wrongly lynch.

I can't believe Brinn is buying this.

If they kill Shasta/Sally toDay, whoever of Brinn and Rikae is innocent will (hopefully ) realize they're on the wrong side and swap over. Someone else probably dies toNight, leaving four evils and three innocents, plus a Medium vote. It'll be a race to vote.

I feel you.

The previous game was also hilarious from the Mod's POV. The only sad thing is that you can't actually share your laughs with anyone but need to hold them with you.

Is this the list they were expecting us to use? If so, and if Pitch does follow through and vote Mac, I think he might be our best shot. If not, I'm all for empowering Shasta and trusting them to figure out that Nilp isn't actually a wolf. Though probably shouldn't take that for granted in this game

I don't think the news that Mac is a wolf will surprise anyone no matter what happens. Either he dies and is a wolf, or an innocent dies and everyone knows who the wolves are. At this point, I don't think we can pass them any information that they shouldn't already know.

Pitch should make his vote official asap, and hope Nilp gets here. Otherwise, as soon as Brinn votes, the wolves + cobbler will slam on that vote within seconds and win the tiebreaker.

Fair enough on both counts. So empowering Shasta then?

It's suddenly oddly quiet in there. You can "hear" the brains working on overload in different parts of the planet.

The calm before the storm.
