Jailor meta isn't an OP strategy for town outside of mid elo (where players are generally bad and rely on methodical strategies to win) -- it's actually the opposite. In high elo games (like elo 2200+ or so), you see day 1 claims probably less than half the time i think? and statistically the ones that don't claim day 1 are winning FAR more.

There's also a huge issue, which is the effect that this meta had on the community; far less critical thinking is being used in terms of how an individual player should be voting, since people rely on following jailor. This causes players to easily get misled by evils or make bad lynches, especially after jailor is dead.
