if you are lying about being a finder, i am sure we will catch you out sooner rather than later,
Will we?
We have 10 players left. lynch someone other than Bent today, we'll have 8 players tomorrow. If there are 3 evil players then it's d-day.
If Bent says tomorrow that he's found a killer, we have a 50/50 choice of Bent or the other player. Get it wrong, we lose.
The only certain way out of this is to go to night tonight (ensuring that tomorrow isn't d-day and hoping that Bent finds a killer - we don't lose a lynch, we already lost that yesterday). We could lynch the most likely partner/symp to Bent today, but that's less certain.
ok i must be missing something here, but you are still gambling that he isnt the finder by your conclusion. If your not, please explain it to me, i aint trying to be difficult, but that is how it reads to me.
I'm saying that if we don't do something about it now, preferrably by going to night but possible by lynching Bent's likely symp or partner, we will not have any chance to catch Bent out. So we are completely relying on him telling the truth.
Your question is "what if he's the real finder?" If so, great. I don't think we lose anything by going to night or lynching Bent's likely teammates if this is the case - We don't lose a lynch, we've already lost that, and someone who might be Bent's teammate might also be guilty independently of Bent.
My question is, "What if he's lying?" Say we lynch an innocent today, and tomorrow Bent says that he's found someone guilty. It's d-day and we have to choose correctly, so there's no chance to catch Bent out.
