Three courses of action are possible in your plan: (a) we lynch Commander on a later day anyways, which means we might as well lynch him today; (b) we never ever lynch Commander, which means you don't want him dead for some scummy reason; (c) we wait until the town cop investigates Commander and tells us what alignment he is, which requires the town cop to claim. Neither of these three courses of action make sense.
What would make sense is for Commander to tell us why he should not be lynched and why he is so focussed on Fircoal, but apparently he doesn't feel like sharing... hence the votes.
First off your three courses of action are all wrong.....you aren't looking at this clearly. Your first option "we lynch Commander on a later day anyways, which means we might as well lynch him today" correct we would lynch someone else today. But you are smoking something powerful and wonderful if you really think there is a chance in hell Com9 lives through the night. Guaranteed he will be targeted by multiple parties so I highly doubt if we don't lynch him, that he'll be with us next game day. The one advantage to us not lynching his ass as I said before is IF there is a win condition based on a lynch of him or Firocal he doesn't get it. Because he would have been offed in the night. Then regardless of his alignment he is still dead, no win condition plays out, and we have an inactive lynched from the night before....so sounds like a sweet deal to me.
"we never ever lynch Commander, which means you don't want him dead for some scummy reason" You are jumping to major conclusions based on so little fact it's astonishing. Never lynching his ass isn't a bad thing, again I think the odds of him living through the night are less then 3.5%. So this would never even be an issue. That you draw a conclusion I don't want him dead fascinates me as we don't even know if he is town or scum. If he is town, and I wanted him dead that would be scummy. If he is mafia and I wanted him alive that too would be scummy. But unless you are aware of his alignment, then this conslusion is complete bs. If you are aware of his alignment by all means state it now, otherwise stop assuming people are scum for not voting a maybe scum member or maybe town member.
"we wait until the town cop investigates Commander and tells us what alignment he is, which requires the town cop to claim" Once again a completely moot point. I'd bet money in Vegas he won't live through the night. Mainly because if he is third party cult, mafia will target his ass or town will target his ass tonight. Third party screws up the other two factions chances of winning. Sorry, Com9 is an outcast in my mind right not. I don't think lynching him helps us as it may sway what sounds like a win condition with his roll. But if he happens to die in the night then he is gone anyway and we focused our energy else where day one which I think is what we should do. He seems like a wasted lynch to me right now. If Com9 gets lynched , (and I said I was willing to vote him as a lynch is better than none) and he wins this damn game because a bunch of people jumped on the bandwagon and he has a win condition I will hate you all. Half the games I have ever played of Fircoals have players with completely ridiculous win conditions. Just saying.
If he dies tonight anyway, why did you propose blocking him in the first place?
