Is this gamethrowing?

Postby Gloomeh » Sat Mar 14, 2015 4:07 pm

Ok so I'm going to keep it as simple and salt-free as I can.I just had a game where a guy admitted that he's an executioner,saving a townie from getting lynched and confirming his alignment.He then proceeded to help town win until the game ended.The game was frustrating since I was the gf and I was hitting immune targets almost every night(2 survivors,jailor,exe immunity,arso).Because of the existence of a transporter and a retri as support roles it was hard to claim a believable role after the exe decided to help town(most of the protectives and invest roles died early into the game).What I'm asking here is if what the exe did can be called gamethrowing.I'm waiting for your answers.

Moved to Ask Questions.
I'd say it is because the executioner went against their goal.

The most important piece of information is missing - did the Executioner hung his target right away? If he did and already won, he can help whomever he wants. Including the Town. Then he can aslo help saving Townies, etc...

So no, that would be completely fine, not game-throwing.

But if he revealed right away, declined wanting to have his target lynched and revealed who his target is, made it impossible to win on his own role, then yes, it is game-throwing.

It doesnt matter if you reported them in-game rightfully or not - if you did, you did. And then the Devs will see the Log, if he is innocent nothing will happen. If he is not, he will be punished.

He actually did reveal that information. He said the Executioner saved his target from being lynched (proving he's a Townie by claiming he's Exe, since they only every go for Town) before helping the Town win the game (so since he saved the Townie, he didn't win either).

The executioners goal is to kill that townie that he saved so yes this is definitely game-throwing, if he had of lynched his target then help town it would be allowed.

Actually, he didnt.

OP never said that the Townie who was getting lynched was Executioner´s target. In fact, the Executioner´s target could have already been gone, and in that case the Executioner was free to do everything.
I was careful to read it twice before saying anything - he never said anything about the townie being the Executioner´s target.
