To Each His Own
A cyclone slowly makes its way toward Gantt Prison. Inside, the last of the prisoners along with the lone guard escorting them are the last to evacuate. As the prisoners approach the exit, the lights flicker off - electricity is down and the prison's automatic security system locks them in. A struggle in the dark ensues as everyone considers their options...

This is an experimental set-up!

Set-up:
1 - Guard
1 - Avenger
1 - Mental Patient
1 - Escapee
1 - Inmate

Alive:
1. Rantai - Avenger - Won Day 1
5. Salvage - Guard - Won Day 1

2. bmin11 - Escapee - Lost Day 1
4. Chris - Mental Patient - Lost Day 1

Dead:
3. Wojjan - Inmate (Lynchee) - Lynched Day 1

Specifics:
I've been wondering what a game would be when everyone had different win conditions.
This is a test game to decide if such a set-up is balanced given each roles' pros and cons.

The game ends when any role obtains a win condition.
There may be cases where a multiple win conditions can be achieved.

Day lasts 72 hours.
Night lasts 24 hours.

Role PMs:
Guard
You are the Guard.

You knew you shouldn't have volunteered to take the last prisoners out, but you have no choice now.
What's worse is that someone stole your gun during the earlier struggle, but you still have your bulletproof vest.

You are a One-Shot Bulletproof.
You win when all the possible threats towards you have been eliminated.

Note: Inmate and Avenger
Avenger
You are the Avenger.

This is your opportunity. You've purposely volunteered to be one of the last prisoners to leave because you knew that "person" would also be one of the last to leave.
You finally can get revenge for what that "person" did to you.

You are a Lyncher.
You win when X is lynched.

Note: X is selected randomly
Mental Patient
You are the Mental Patient.

Crap. crap. crap. crap. This is the END OF IT ALL!!!
This... cyCLOne will KILL US ALL!!!
you must end it all... that's right! Take your own life, yes!

You are a Jester.
You win when you are lynched.
Escapee
You are the Escapee.

What a coincidence that you planned your daring escape during the height of a cyclone.
What's better is that there are only four others left and there's a blackout. Escaping would be easy as pie.
You just need some time to dig that final one meter in your escape tunnel.

You are a Survivor.
You win when Day 2 ends, and you are still alive.
Inmate
You are the Inmate.

Ha! You wrestled that gun away from that guard. Now all you have to do is kill everyone with it and you-
Oh what hell! This gun only has one bullet in it... Well screw it. You'll still kill everyone.

You are a Mafia Goon with One Kill.
You win you control half of the votes.

4) You may also remove your vote by using this format: Unvote : Player
5) When a player receives more than half of the total votes at any point during the day, that player is automatically lynched.
6) Once a player is lynched, there shall be no posting in the thread even before the mod posts the lynch scene. Night will commence shortly.
7) If no one has been lynched, and the deadline has passed, the person with the most votes gets lynched. If there is a tie, the one who reached the tying amount of votes first, is lynched.
8) A player has to remain active, at least one post per 24 hours. If a player has not posted for 24 hours, one may request for them to be prodded.
9) If the player prodded doesn't respond, a he/she will be replaced.
10) If the player gets prodded three times already and still becomes inactive he/she will be automatically replaced.
11) If no replacement can be found. The player will be modkilled instead.

Electricity is still down. The entire facility is still shrouded in darkness.
The five all agree to discuss what to do next. They all realize that none of them can quite recognize each other in the darkness.
What are each of them planning?


IT IS NOW DAY 1.
WITH 5 ALIVE, IT TAKES 3 TO LYNCH.
Rantai
Ahh hmm.

Jester dies - Jester/possible lyncher win
Survivor dies - keeps going
Guard dies - keeps going
Lyncher dies - keeps going
Mafia dies - guard may win if he is not the lynchee

So uh the best lynch we have is lynching the lyncher simply because everyone benefits from the death (one less win condition, no one has the potential to win with the death). Of course there is no way to know who is what but at least it's something to work towards.
Salvage
i didn't understand the mafia dies situation


isn't the guard supposed to kill the lyncher and the mafia?


and not the mafia only i mean.
Rantai
"You win when all the possible threats towards you have been eliminated."

If he isn't the lynchee then I can't see how the lyncher is a threat.

Not sure really; Mod: Does the guard win if the mafia is dead and the lyncher's lynchee is not the guard?
Salvage
then he probabbly is cause why would NoHitter put "Inmate and Avenger" there on the Note otherwise?
Rantai
I thought it was an oversight. That's why I'm asking now.
Rantai
Oh and because of this;

"You are a Lyncher.
You win when X is lynched.
Note: X is selected randomly"
Salvage
then the avenger has to be dead regardless of the lyncher, along with the inmate for the guard to win
Rantai
Not sure how that is a threat to him but ok.
Salvage
me neither but the host confusing town before the game seems more sensless than that and it will dumb as hell so that's why those are the two options imo.
Salvage
and with that i mean host giving false information pre-game it's stupid and brings a lot of randomness from the very begin which i wouldn't count NH on doing so.


so taking those 2 Notes in mind either the Guard is the lynchee or the Avenger has to die regardless
Chris_old
why do either of you think nohitter gave false information

I don't get it
Salvage
???



i just said he didn't
Chris_old
oh I didn't understand what you wrote

If the Avenger's target isn't the Guard, the Guard need not have the Avenger dead to win.
Salvage
then the avenger's target is most likely to be the guard, i'd say 100% but idk.
Rantai
Mmm I thought so.
Wojjan
so the guard is right now the only townie? sounds fair. Can someone more capable do the math iof whether it's best to lynch or no lynch? At first glance when you consider two people automatically end the game on lynch, it seems benefittable to no lynch
Salvage
no, we don't have any informative role to gather information on a no lynch situation so i guess we have another two options on this scenario :



1. the guard claims and we increase the chances of lynching mafia
2. random lynch and hope we don't get the lynchee




on the situation we do a no lynch (which i don't see it working but i'm really bad doing those kind of maths on d1 so idk).
Wojjan
random lynch is going to be tight, because we have to avoid both lynchee and fool
Salvage
on the other hand if the guard claims it'd defeat the purpose of the bulletproof vest being effective, and we're just assuming he's the lynchee anyways (i'm pretty sure about it tho but whatever)


also i don't think we have fools on this game lol, feels good.
Wojjan
yes we do. mental patient
Salvage
oh true true very true that thing u say
Rantai
Uh that was a huge pain in the ass.

But here are some numbers, if we no lynch;

Chance to win:

Lyncher 17.67%
Guard 14.48%
Mafia 15.52%
Jester 26.8%
Survivor 57.48%

This includes joint wins and chance lynchee lynches. I haven't done the 'if we lynch' numbers yet. I might do it later but right now I am sick of spreadsheets.
Rantai
I assume the jester can joint win with the lyncher if he is the lynchee, the survivor can joint win with anyone etc etc.
Salvage
vote bmin11
Rantai
I'd say, based on a quick estimate, that we have a better chance going for a lynch today and hoping to get the survivor.

40% chance someone will win today or 57% chance that the survivor wins on the next day.

sounds about right, but bear in mind nobody can win after D2 end. That's vivor by default.
Rantai
Yeah. That's why the survivor chance is so damn high. Almost all paths led to an auto win.
Salvage
unvote, vote Rantai
Wojjan
Salvage you lost me dear are you looking for a lyncher bandwagon?
Salvage
im trying to lynch the survivor



and if you were the survivor Wojjan my love, would you lurk or try to seem town you tell me
Rantai
Not much reason to 'act' town in this game. We're basically all independent factions.

Though I now have some light speculations on your role.
