Once in a Blue Moon

Full Script

Notes

https://botc.1nv.is/wiki/Once_in_a_Blue_Moon Page at BotC Wiki (ru) Some Mathematician & Magician jinxes were removed Lunatic is often kept in the dark for a while because of fake Marionette, Magician, and Lycanthrope redirecting kills. When found out, can keep Goon good or be fed to Lycan. Lycanthrope is scared of Pukka: Lycan kills hide Pukka poison and Scarlet Woman catching Pukka, and Pukka attacking Lycan causes a night with 2 deaths. Mathematician detects: Recluse / Spy / Faux Paw misregistration, Lycanthrope stopping a demon kill, Goon, Sweetheart, Pukka, Poisoner, and Magician + Spy jinx. Spy execution may trigger Godfather. Aside from Choirboy itself, King is also protected by Lycanthrope denying demon kills, and Magician breaking the communication of King's identity from demon to Godfather or Choirboy's identity from Spy to demon. All Townsfolk except Magician are excellent Marionettes. Marionette and Faux Paw-ed character can turn Goon evil. 3 / 5 minions start already knowing a bluff in Magician games. Sketchy good players / minion fallbacks: Magician, Choirboy, Goon, Lunatic, Sweetheart
