Let prosecutor prosecute during discussion phase

[wild anvil]

whats the point of being anonymous if towns just gonna fastvote an outted evil before you get the chance to prosecute them and then youll have to be like "yo guys im TE inno and let me pros this"

if i get ping diffed as prosecutor one more time im throwing my computer out the window

or let prosecutor queue up a prosecution during discussion phase (probably better so that starspawn/conj has opportunities to stop it)

This is a good idea and has been suggested before but to be fair it was a long time ago and your new here

1. come on that suggestion's from the big 2024, did you want me to necrobump a two year old forum post
2. prosecutor has been reworked twice since that suggestion and fastvote skillcheck is still a problem, i think bringing this up again is still valid
3. ive been playing btos2 since release...? dunno how thats relevant

[worldly vault]

saying a suggestion that's already been suggested is actually the worst thing you can do ever

[worldly vault]

to counter this, the only reason I wouldn't want it is just because of the chance TT or Ego pros can exist and then just have no counterplay, if they didn't exist I'm 100% on board with this

[wild anvil]

i dont think fastvoting should be considered counterplay, a win condition should never be a "who can click faster" in a social deduction game
if evils are dealt a strong hand with a strong evil town role, its their cards to play and town should have to counterplay with their own abilities

[proper crescent]

im just saying that its been brought up before and taken positively and the same reasons for it being added still apply

i think its a good suggestion infact its talked about every once in a while

[wild anvil]

my question is this: if evils play their cards correctly, through smart kills and mislynches, for a position where one more prosecution leads to majority, why should town be given a chance to wrestle back victory from their mistakes just by clicking fast?

also ping diff

[proper crescent]

my main issue with fastvoting is ping diff

[worldly vault]

I mean even if pros didn’t use their ability at all it’s -1 TExe for town to begin with, and TT pros basically being allowed to add an extra two kills to covens side along with CK makes it so basically no matter what unless town is graced with a vigi that evils get maj

At least as of current you can stop a pros by fast voting

Basically take charge of trials

[wild anvil]

you could argue the same for tt jailor

i just think it should be either town takes trial control or pros gets to use their ability, there shouldnt be a ping/reflex competition
