If the demon is, say, ondine, isn't that exactly what they did? Then again she had that weird shift onto three letter poster before jumping to Rosen last sec when she could have been pushing Rosen the whole time... hm. Let me get back to you on this; I think I'll have to try and think about what was going on at that EOD. It is certainly possible I'm just overthinking this.
Wait, where is this established? I don't remember there being proof of a possessed gnome, did I miss something?Demons would have known he was a gnome, since they had a possessed Gnome.
It should be noted before it was asked we didn't know how tiebreakers work, and usually for this site it's random is all other things are equal. At least in my experience.I hadn't realized how last minute @ondine's vote was here. The way tiebreakers work means they did only need the one switch, but if they didn't know that they'd have thought that they had to put two votes on either -Rosen or -Ondine. Okay, yeah, I can sort of see how they would think that was too obvious.
To that end I would like an explanation here, given one was not given at the time and you forced a tie.
One of the kills on Wiadi was strongman, so it is very unlikely they stacked attacks. Demons would have known he was a gnome, since they had a possessed Gnome.

@Tykan has been "Zapped to Oblivion", they were a Possessed Gnome. No items are revealed on their corpse.

If they are following the logic demons were using last archfiend, they were expecting to hit a fiendish gnome.You're right, but I'm confused why demons kill a gnome here. Gnomes are survivors that can win with demons, so a living gnome acts like an extra demon in terms of when LYLO occurs.
Ah, thanks for pointing that out guys. Hadn't made the connection between them being a Gnome and Tykan also being a Gnome.@Wiadi has been "Blown Away" and "Scattered across the room," they were a Gnome. A Token of Exchange was found on their body.

Probably not a hellbeast, unless one held back their kill for some odd reason.
Only way I can logic out hitting a survivor they knew was a survivor and they didn't need dead was if they assumed they were an enemy. Otherwise the move is just utter nonsense.I'm not sure why scum would be aiming for a crosskill right now? Right after losing a member doesn't sound like a great time tbh.
...Somehow I remembered that as a Fiendish Gnome. Arglebargle.

We've also learned there isn't a hellbeast, which since that's 50/50 is pretty significant.

I wasn't thinking about it from that perspective, my apologies. My two intertwining strings of thought were less scum = more good, alongside the nigh certainty that wands were going to be used. I was hoping that scum, who were unlucky enough to have a member voted out on the first night, would continue to suffer ill fortune. Obviously not the case in hindsight, but having optimism is free!Wands are a likely pick for scum if anything. Town wants to stay alive, and while the one shot vig is good, it's often distinctly *better* for scum to try to make a lot of kills early on (what I suspect happened). Scum also have the best chance of not friendly firing early game, so towny vigs with 1 shot are unlikely to fire until they have a better clue or it's late game and that can swing things afaict.
It's not a very serious vote, but it's a distinctly alarming kind of logic to want more death N1 imo, that sets off the scum alarm.
Or got jailed, though I don't think Cyri or BB would have claimed that so readily if they had.
Which begs the question of why would they do that? My theory: Demons thought Wiadi was fiendish. There is also some possibilities of the Ferryman's coin being put to work here however this is more generalistic.

All your actions are always Strongman Actions. You cannot be stopped from taking any action by a Mystic Cage, nor prevented from killing by a Staff of Life, unless the target is a Dwarf being protected by such items. Item use may be prevented by the Rope of Darkness, but your kills can never be stopped.
