Mechanics
"Cleaning" only means your target's role and Last Will will not be revealed to the. It does not have any effect on an 's gas.


 * Your cleaning attempt will be successful if your target dies for any reason, including leaving the game.
 * The cause of death will still be revealed to the.
 * Your target's role will appear as "cleaned" in the Graveyard.


 * After you have successfully cleaned a victim, you will receive a message about their exact role at the beginning of the next day.


 * You will be able to read your victim's original Last Will by clicking on their name in the Graveyard. Everybody else, including the other members of the, will see a blank Last Will.


 * The is not supposed to be able to revive victims you have cleaned, however they sometimes still can. This is a known bug.


 * cannot attempt to remember a cleaned person's role.


 * If a attempts to forge your target's Last Will, their attempt will have no effect; your clean takes priority.
 * If you visit a jailed target, you will not waste a clean.

Selecting Someone to Clean

 * It is very important to clean roles, because they are almost guaranteed to write something in their Last Will that is important to aid the  in lynching the right people. Always clean them, especially if the  or  decides to kill a known.
 * You can later disguise to be one of the known roles as well. Additionally,  can benefit from the information obtained, and it will often help them prioritize their investigations.
 * Be wary of cleaning the 's first target. Since night one is when and  will only be getting their first bit of information, if you kill one of them, their Last Will will not contain useful information for the . If any roles that aren't  are killed, then it doesn't matter either, as the  normally waits to use their only revival past Night 3, and the  is almost never confirmed after the first night. As the information from these Last Wills will not surface until much later, your cleanings may be more useful to use later on.
 * If a fellow member is being accused by a non-confirmed (especially Day 3 onwards), and you are definite that they are that role, cleaning them can also be beneficial, however, some players might think your fellow  member is the, or at the very least, a member of the , due to hiding that player's information from the others.


 * On the other hand, in games with tighter role lists, like Ranked, cleaning anyone will conceal their role and make it much harder for the to determine people's roles by process of elimination; therefore, it might be a worthwhile strategy to use all your cleans as quickly as possible to be sure you free up as much claimspace as you can before you die.
 * If the has two, or a  and a , it's usually worth cleaning or forging every person who dies, since you're unlikely to run out before the end of the game.


 * are also unable to revive your cleaned targets. This can come in handy when dealing with a revealed, , or other important roles who often leave important Last Wills. Bonus points if the tries to prove themselves by reviving the cleaned role - and getting lynched when they fail.
 * However, this may lead the to revive a  role, like  - making the 's job all that much harder. Generally it is still a good idea, though.
 * Even when you are cleaning roles that seem to have no importance for the in their Last Will (such as, , , or ), it still can be helpful to confuse the  in a situation where the role list is tight. This situation is more likely to be useful when you're likely to be lynched next day or the game would be likely to end because there are only a few players left, and you would like to use all of your three cleanings.
 * If you're in doubt about when to use your cleanings, you may consider cleaning a person who is leaving the game or getting disconnected ("apparently committed suicide"). Those who left the game are incapable of telling a their true role and are usually not investigated and not watched by  (especially on Night 1). They are also guaranteed not to retaliate! (eg.  and ). This always sheds doubt especially on semi-random role lists, as  will be unsure of the existence of that role.

Taking advantage of your cleanings

 * You know your target's role, so saying you are a the next night and revealing their role, claiming they told it to you can support you. With this way, you can trick the  by saying in the name of the dead people, for example, "The (name/role) says X is suspicious//." when X is not a part of the . Moreover, you can do other things to make you naturally believed as a  by becoming a messenger (i.e. if  has executed a, you can say "The jailed  is getting mad at the ").
 * However, keep in mind that sometimes it's normal to have two or more, which would result to the real calling you out as the dead people will alert the real (s) during the night.
 * This strategy may have a backlash when you're standing out as a for too long without the  trying to kill you, especially when you have revealed a lot of "important" information publicly. The  might think you are a  instead. Many  will rapidly lynch any  claims when it becomes clear there's an active.


 * Another option you can do is to pretend or role-play to be the role that you cleaned, especially because only you can read your target's Last Will. Many Unique Roles are rarely claimed due to the ease with which they can be counterclaimed; cleaning can open these up to the entire ! In all cases, be aware that this risks getting you exposed by a and that these claims trust the  to not dig any further and demand conformation going forwards; usually the  won't ask for more confirmation once you're "confirmed", but it may happen if the game drags on or if something else calls attention to you. Regardless, when a cleaning allows them, some of the most powerful claims are ones that the  is rarely able to make (and which therefore are less likely to face backlash from the ):


 * While it's dangerous, claiming to be the is sometimes plausible after cleaning the real, as the  will frequently not bother to ask for additional confirmation, trusting the real  to sort you out if you lied (and are unaware that the real  is dead); you can also use previous records of who the  jailed from their Last Will in order to get them to "confirm" you as the . However, if there is a , they will call you out as "not ". The only hope then is to pretend to be a.
 * After cleaning a, you can use other strategies that rely on the 's assumption that the is still alive, too. For instance, your  can claim to have been jailed as a way of explaining his Night Immunity if called out by a  or.
 * Help your fellow members of the out! If a member of the  is in trouble, tell a role of a person you cleaned so they can have claim-space. Of course, you won't be able to claim this role anymore, but you could save the life of another member of the.
 * Similarly, the is normally a dangerous role to claim because it's unique; but after you've cleaned one, it becomes incredibly easy and will discourage  or any  roles from investigating you in the future.
 * is usually an impossible role to claim due to the need to produce a Last Will that the people who have been transported can confirm. However, it sometimes becomes available if you steal the detailed Last Will of a ; however, you need to claim said role quickly, as the may notice if "your" Last Will ends early. Alternatively, you can tack on entries at the end that transport you with members of the  or with people who died; one or two  confirming the Last Will's transports will often be sufficient to let you pass as a.
 * In Ranked and other modes where roles are defined by general category, successfully cleaning a role opens up that entire category as a safe claim. For example, in Ranked, if the dies, it is usually safe to claim to be a  or.
 * You are powerful combined with a . If you clean a Unique Role, the can then disguise as that role. You can also find  roles based on what they claim, as you will know what is and isn't possible.

After Out of Cleanings

 * When out of cleanings, don't give up! You still contribute to the via voting, sharing out strategies in the  night chat, or perhaps becoming a  later.
 * If you've already pretended to be as (and you're safe that there are no actual  left), you can continue the disguising strategy or simply saying nothing "as no  are talking".
 * If you have no cleanings left, it can be a good idea to try and take a hit for a more important member of the (, another  with cleanings left, a  or a  with forges, etc.) Try pulling attention to yourself to draw it away from others. Only do this if it is clear that another member of the  is in danger of getting enough suspicion on them, they are lynched or killed, or if they have a more important role in the  than you do. Keep in mind you do not need to be alive to win when the  kills everyone.
 * You could also let the or  call you out as, and "confirm" themselves as  or  or another  role.
