Smash does the game end when the Jester wins?

[Hans]

No matter as to when I use my ability, it would appear Fobby wants to be lynched by everyone.

Wait... did you say he wins by getting lynched?

[smashbro]

The Jester winning if he gets lynched is only common in smaller games, as far as I know. That would not be the case here.

[quaetam]

If he's the Jester then yes. But whatever you do, don't use your ability or people will know you're mafia and we'll lose a member tomorrow, if not today. Save it for when it's really important.

EDIT: But would he still WIN, per se, but the game goes on, meaning he wins with whatever team emerges triumphant in the end?

[smashbro]

The game would go on.

[Hans]

Fobby has to be a Jester or similar, I know him too well; he wouldn't sign up to play and then just leave as soon as the game begins, that's not his style.

[quaetam]

OK, thanks for the clarification. If that's the case, I think our only fear is that he might be the bomb as Mentok suggested, which won't matter unless everyone who voted after you guys retracts their vote.

[Weldar]

I've never seen a game that ended after a fool was lynched, instead they've let everyone else battle it out for "second place". The fool still is considered the winner but suddenly ending a game that's being going on for days or weeks due to a fool really sucks so people usually don't.

I still don't think he's a fool. But yeah Hans you should conserve that kill. If you have to reveal yourself to use it then either you should wait till there's already a lot of suspicion on you or we've got a really good target (eg. publicly confirmed cop, being a day kill we shouldn't have to worry about doctors.)

Edit: Man am I slow, super ninjas. He could be a bomb yes but doing this so early is one is still quite silly, better to wait until later when you're more likely to hit mafia. Still we should avoid being the last to vote for him just to be safe, though there are plenty of variations of the bomb so it could be he gets to choose a specific target (or it's just random anyway).

[Hans]

I was never really going to in the first place, I know how useful my ability will be, even if I've never played mafia before.

[quaetam]

Do you think that one of you guys (maybe Hans?) should start arguing why he might not be the Jester. It seems like all three of us have addressed that possibility very distinctly and all at once :/.

Not to mention (as I'm sure you've both also thought about) he could just be fucking with our heads.

[Weldar]

I doubt Fobby's the Fool and I stick by that position in the thread.

Feel free to disagree with me and maybe even argue a little

[Hans]

Maybe I should start trying to convince people that he is mafia acting like the Jester?

ok, Weldar can be the one who says he's not the fool.

[Hans]

I am enjoying this game, takes my mind of my shithouse week.

[quaetam]

No, don't overreact. Just act natural. The point you should make, if any, is that he's fucking with our heads. And also, I really hope Fobby doesn't have amazing guesswork skills.

Also, Weldar, I'm not entirely convinced myself (Fobby really knows how to mess with your head, troll or no), I'm just abstaining from the vote in the off-chance that he is either Bomb or Fool.

[Hans]

Fobby is reasonably good at guesswork, he knew who the killer was in TWBB all through the series. We just have to make sure he can't get anything on us, and continue to fuel the speculation that he's the Jester.
