Zigmen, what is your win condition?
Good question; when all threats to Town are eliminated.
While that may mean Indies, it may not.
It's irrelevant.
Here's why:
1) Amok was not under pressure to out.
2) Amok claims "survivor," not "last man standing."
3) Amok has agreed to kill who we want killed.
4) Amok understands that if she fails, she will be lynched.
5) Amok understands that, after 2 more Scum die. she will need to die.
So, your question is irrelevant.
We can double our firepower and kill Amok at any moment we detect a ruse.
Killing her today is throwing away half of our firepower.
And who would want Town to lose half of their firepower? Scum and any player who hasn't thought beyond the immediate moment.
How about this: If Amok doesn't do our bidding, we kill her tomorrow?
If she does do our bidding, we keep her alive until 2 more Scum die and the game doesn't end?
Amok is agreeable to this.
Why are you in such a rush to avoid testing and exploiting this potential advantage?
