Confirming RCT isn't mafia again?

Jeez, relax, would ya. It's just a hypothetical, ie assuming there's one faction, why would the mafia risk wasting their kill on someone with a vest? It just doesn't add up.

Maybe some other party wanted to check his claim, but it's probably not mafia (in a single faction game).

Hey Sparks, I've played in a multi-faction game before though I was town. I think that mafia only know who is in their faction and who isn't . They wouldn't know who is town and who is not and are less aware than in a single faction game. Someone else could confirm that though.

If RCT is mafia, it would be in their interest to test RCT's claim and possibly kill him. Since town voted on his scumminess for a good part of day 1, it's possible faction B is trying to diminish the numbers of faction A, since mafia factions are more threatening to each other than town is to them.

There is also hint of a cult in this game, so RCT may be a cultist who has the chance to survive the first night in order to have a chance to raise an army. We don't know.

1. That doesn't need confirmation. It's pretty clear that mafia A wouldn't know which players are on mafia B. Otherwise it would be a pretty short game.

2. If RCT is mafia B, the only reason to try and kill him (as mafia A) would be to score townie points by claiming vigilante. However, there are also plenty of townie points to be had simply by pushing for a lynch on a player who at the end of yesterday was already being considered a prime contender for lynch today.

3. There is a hint of a cult being defeated and removed. That role you just made up is nonsense. Please stick to simpler ideas.

To expound on 2 again:

Why would a team waste a kill on a player with a vest when instead they could just kill one of you five who pushed for rct's lynch, and then push? IE: mafia kills padib and then in the morning says "vote: rct. I have every indication that rct is mafia and that padib was picked because of his leadership against the suspect".

That would score massive town points and remove another player from the pool. The less players are killed, the longer the game goes, the more likely mafia lose.
