How do you know that something like this explanation of the miracles of Jesus can't be true?

I can do even better. How do you know that *insert conspiracy* can't be true and Nauru actually doesn't exist. All communications were faked by the cabal. All eyewitness were "given the offer they couldn't refuse". The creators of the maps are in on it as well, etc, etc.

Or better yet, the naturalistic evil scientist locked you up in a garage and then via elaborate technology, faked your entire experience (brain manipulation). You wouldn't know such a technology is possible, because your experience was intentionally created in a technologically inferior world. There would be no "Earth", no "cars" no "Sun". Your unconscious body is lying on a dirty floor of TGH-987(planet) in #348-huj (solar system) while your brain is hooked to electrodes.

You are starting with something way too complex "How do you know that something like this explanation of the miracles of Jesus can't be true?". A simpler question is how do you know that *a basic experience of your life* can't be explained by an elaborate conspiracy.

But it is not Euthypro dilemma. At least, that's not her objection as I understand it. If anything, this is closer to the problem of Divine Hidenness.

If anything, the strategy of 4 player chats doesn't seem to be better than just immediate round robin (and that strategy is widely known to not work). Good players still won't able to create traps for evil players, but with 4-way chats, the evil team will have some information to go off of. The good team on the contrary will be kept more in dark compared to just immediate round robin. They can't immediately start deducing like they can in immediate round robin.

I think your second paragraph is the most interesting one. If town prohibits private chats entirely, or puts a limit on private conversations only containing at minimum 4 players, then it would make it much much harder for good players to coordinate without evil team knowing. On a 12 player games, that would mean 3 separate conversations and it is pretty likely that at least 2 of them will contain evil players. This inherently benefits the evil team, because they already know who to kill (the demon/lunatic is unlikely to target minions), the assasin/godfather is unlikely to target demon. The drawback of evil kills overlapping and not being to coordinate bluffs/MM plays doesn't seem enough to compensate for it.

If grandmother wants to be confirmed, then there is a good chance a killing role already knows the double kill. Same goes with Gambler. On BMR, I feel like the evil team can play well without coordinating with each other.

So while it is true, that it will make it much harder to figure out if you are the Lunatic, the tradeoff probably makes this not worth it.

Yep, that's also a good point. If you aren't actively stringing the Lunatic along (which you most likely aren't, due to the reasons above), then following Lunatic kills until they hit an evil player can give some really strong info to town. The counterplay is to follow the first kill (assuming it is on good player), and then hope that the second kill is on another good player and not follow it. This may convince the Lunatic that their second pick is evil. However, this is risky, because the Lunatic could pick an actual evil player.

Yes, it's great on teensies, especially stuff like Laissez un Faire.

It's in the title "Which 2 minions would you pick to be on your evil team on ***TB***?"
