Carly, who usually reads Adam the best, let his risky move of proclaiming Goblin in front of the whole circle pass up for one more round, that was enough for the evil team to solve the puzzle.

    Since everyone's already pointing out all the great hits, I just want to shout out that Amnesiac ability.
    In almost every single instance, the Amnesiac ability has been some esoteric information gathering ability that never gets to affect the game because it's either never figured out or by the time it *is* figured out, it's too late to be helpful; which is *why* Dom was so willing to die because he figured "I'm not smart enough for this, let's just get this over with."
    But the Amnesiac ability can be **ANYTHING**. It might be cute to give someone an ability like "You learn how many people voted for the Demon" to let them feel smart for figuring it out. But if you give someone an ability like "Your vote is counted once for each day you've been alive", they can still have an influence on the game before figuring it out, and feel super powerful immediately after learning how good it is!
    I was seriously hoping that Adam was going to be put on the chopping block day one, because I wanted to see something unprecedented happen, and it was a right shame it didn't. Here's hoping we can get more intriguing and immediately useful Amnesiacs in the future!

      Pretty sure the reason why Dom was happy to die was because he got a 'quite warm' with regards to his ability having something to do with drunkenness or poisoning. I feel it's probable his thinking was that he had an ability that made people drunk, which is why he was willing to die as it would be a detriment to the town.
      Unfortunately for him, he had not figured out it was a Vortox at that point.

      @SPACKlick Před rokem +15

      @@Kings_Quest I actually think Carley's reputation as a BoTC Queen is a little over-rated. She does often work things out and pieces things together but she doesn't win friends or influence people along the way which is part of a social deduction game. For instance in this game, nobody glommed onto the fact that in a vortox game Carley was 100% good via Dan's empath, they were so distrusting of her they landed on either Carley and mara were both good or both bad, which isn't possible. On NRB Carley has a 56.5% win rate, just barely above the 54.83% average.

    I know lots of people are saying that Adam distracting Carley was what ultimately led to that Damsel win, but I think that Dan’s conviction that this wasn’t a vortex game was what was distracting her the most. She was focusing so hard on proving to him that she wasn’t evil. Also, Brooke was the only person who believed Dan’s info was true and thought Carley was evil the whole time, which was another factor that led to them not speaking.

    And just like that, just when I thought Adam was the worst BOTCT player I'd ever seen, he totally redeems himself. What a brilliant play from start to finish. Claiming Goblin publicly, sowing seeds (quietly but not TOO quietly) of a Poppy Grower so that the evil team can bring up the possibility without seeming suspicious and opening up the real Poppy Grower to double claim and possibly out themself publicly, and then calling Brooke's (admittedly poor) bluff that she had a once per game ability that she was cagey about and hadn't used yet on DAY THREE - all masterstrokes.
    Evil wants to sow chaos, but he did it with an alibi that made sense to the good team, and with a bluff that meant that even if the good team thought he was evil, they were taking a huge risk to execute him (which is also a competent Poppy Grower play if they want to play aggressively), and even if they did call his bluff, his Boomdandy ability meant it would STILL be bad for the good team.
    Hilariously, this game with the Poppy Grower seems like EXACTLY the game Adam wanted in the ill-fated game "with" Tempest. Just pure chaos where even evil doesn't actually know what's going on. And he killed it.
